Differing viewpoints! Well I am FOR SURE playing 2 when this patch releases. Do we have any ETA on it?
(A serious Saints Row...my brain cannot reconcile that oxymoron lol)

Its not serious serious its as serious as a Saints Row story can go you still do some crazy shit in 2 but it just feels more balanced than 3. That doesn't mean the game doesn't have its moments I'm sure there's going to be certain scene that is going feel quite different for a SR game and make a experience another emotion than joy.

It is more so a balanced experience.

Think Tarantino movies. Sometimes they become really bizzare but it is taken seriously enough without going full dark serious like GTA4 for example. It is more like GTA3 era of games.

You have tons of activities like crowd control where you protect celebs from crazed fans by throwing them into razors or some other shit. The gangs are also very colorful with some gangs using voodoo or others going around with japanese swords.

I played it with the Gentlemen mod and honestly didn't really have a problem. But I'll try it again with and without this patch to see if I was just crazy.

Wonder if the mod will work with this patch.

Looks like I'll put in another 100 hours into this game when this patch drops. I'm so fucking pumped for this!

Hopefully it's more "actually fixed" rathter than just improved, cuz that shit needs a lot of work. It and Deadly Premonition are the 2 games I've shelved on PC due to technical issues.

Holy fucking shit. This is massive news, hopefully it also means a likelihood of ports, too. GOAT Saint's Row on the go would be insane.

Cannot fucking wait to play this game again. Still have my LE Nov, SR money clip and Freckle Bitches pizza box kicking about somewhere...

Oh wow, this is going to be very nice. I'm looking forward to this update, I hope it runs buttery, I like 3 and 4, but this one is very nice as well.

Just announced on Volition's SR2 11th anniversary stream


Volition found the PC source code from the original outsourced port job. Fixes/updates include:

Steamworks support for multiplayer
DLC that was previously console-only
Draw distance increase
Better resolution support (ultrawide was mentioned)
Higher-quality audio

The fixed version will have a new app ID but will be free for existing Steam owners.

Holy smokes!!!


I been meaning to play this but the fact it was a bad port pushed me to hold off

Patience is a virtue 😂

Wow, I always wanted to play this game but the god awful port made it so I never got far into it. Now I'll get a chance to play it finally.

So are they finally going to fix the PC Speed bug where the game speed is tied to CPU clock speed?
