*** Saints Row 2 - Official Thread ***

Ohh what a moment :D

Doing a mission (Won't say the name or spoil it for anyone who hasn't done it) with lots of Ronin chasing us, shoot one Ronin's bike, it sets on fire, blows up, he sets on fire, lands in out converible, wriggling and burning and yelling :D

Quick handbrake turn and he colled off in someone's fence :D

Another classic was doing Insurance Fraud, hit a truck windscreen, got stuck against it, only to have the driver murmuring on to himeself :D

I can't get the hang of the insurance fraud one either....On the first level I go to the place by car, on the map which is supposed to give me a bonus. However the only way I can rack up money is to drive head on into vehicles. If i just run infront of trucks/cars etc I go flying, but no cash?! It also says press "LB" or "X" to jump infront of cars, which I press, but nothing happens....:(

Jump and then press the right trigger just as your about to be hit. Once you have been hit into the air, you can use the left stick to semi-control your flight. Try and come back down onto another vehical and keep the 'accident' going. gl :)
 
I have the same trouble with Insurance Fraud. I have just completed Level 1 but it took me ages, so I must be doing something wrong.

Initially the only way I get any $$ clocking up is using a vehicle to crash head-on with another (I fly through the windscreen usually). If I jump infront of a vehicle it just runs me over with no $$ bonus (same as above posted). The onscreen instructions say to press LB or X to dive - but they do absolutely nothing for me.

When I finally passed Level 1 it had gone into Adrenaline Mode with about 2 seconds (from the initial 3m30s) remaining. I spent the other 3m28s driving around trying to do head-on collisions.

I must be doing something wrong - but what?
 
Tax Evader, when on foot you have to press RT as your about to be hit. It causes your dude to trip over creating the 'accident'.

My most disliked side job is the firetruck, being that your in a truck the stage waypoint should be at the road closest to the building rather than it's door.. Every time so far i've had one building that is next to impossable to trigger the next stage of the mission :mad:

edit; lol saying that i just thought i'd try and ignore the 'you have # seconds to get back to the truck' and ran to the waypoint.

I was a big fan of the original so picked this up today. Its mayhem as per usual. Graphics seem pretty naff to be honest. We were spoilt by GTA4 it seems, but nonetheless, I spent most of my free evening time throwing remote satchel charges at people...

I dont have issues.. honest..

My plan was to trade it in for GoW2, but now I'm not so sure.
 
Fantastic game.

Got infinite ammo for most guns, infinite spring and over a million dollars to spend pimping.

Love it.

Yep that did the trick! Managed level 2 :D

So what's the "press LB or X to dive" instruction all about? Is it just an error?

LT or RT "fall" for you, if you run (RB) and press X (Jump) then RT or LT while in the air, you'll flop and fall, ie you can throw yourself across a lane and get hit mid height by a bus :)
 
Got this game at about 3pm, and if I'm honest, I've only just got off it for a breather. Awesome fun, a breath of fresh air compared to GTA4. :D

I've barely scratched the surface of the activies either.

I think its a bug - they're your primary and secondary attack buttons in a vehicle, and if you get the hints on screen while in a vehicle it displays the LB or X messsage. If you do it on foot, you get the correct message.
 
Since getting Fable 2 I haven't really played this, not sure why as I was really enjoying it. Think I might have to put Fable 2 on the back burner for a while and get back into this :)
 
i've been playing Mp on this and its been awesome........................ when i get a game!!

whats up with MP? i get on the player waiting list and then people get assigned to a team then its loading then it quits back to the main menu, very very frustrating because the MP games i have got in have been awesome!!! won a fair few as well, big gangsta brawl and ronin battles.

will deff be up for some coop if anyone is still playing, only done 14% of the game but been playing for 8 hours!! which for a single player game for me is masses as i only play MP games now.

The activities are awesome insurance fraud being my favourite.
