[QUOTE=geogzm;33892090]I look at the floor and get around 60fps, then I look about and get 15-20. How do I stop this? I thought they optimized the game.[/QUOTE] that happens with like every game you play ever

[QUOTE=bigbundie;33892275]that happens with like every game you play ever[/QUOTE] I don't understand why lag kicks in the second the game loads up some distant LOD models and a couple of up-close civilians, cars and buildings. GTA IV ran fine for me.
[QUOTE=geogzm;33892950]I don't understand why lag kicks in the second the game loads up some distant LOD models and a couple of up-close civilians, cars and buildings. GTA IV ran fine for me.[/QUOTE] You're comparing the FPS you get when looking at a floor with one texture with some light on it to to a whole city with people and cars moving around all with different amounts of lights, several textures per thing and thousands more polygons. GTA4 isn't SR3, it's less resource heavy. Oh and what card do you have?
Actually SR3 runs way better for me than GTA4 does. It's not rendering "the whole city" anyway, just a small part of it and everything beyond a certain point is just a extremely low poly model that costs next to nothing to render. That FPS does sound pretty weird though, unless you're on an AMD card with old drivers (or just a shit computer in general :v:). The game ran like crap when it came out on AMD cards (or at least the 6xxx series), but it has been improved a lot in some of the newer Catalyst versions.

I killed Professor Genki. He drops between 100k and 300k so says the [url=http://saintsrow.wikia.com/wiki/Professor_Genki]wiki[/url], so be sure to kill him if you find him! He dropped 130k or so for me.

Got this for Christmas, and it's actually really fun. I'm only like 4 missions in, but it's been a good time so far.
[QUOTE=bloboo;33894653]I saw him during a mission where I had to defend a helicopter. :suicide:[/QUOTE] I believe they're all fake in that mission. So no worries.

So as long as it's an ATI card any performance problems can be pointed at that.
holy shit why did they kill[sp] johnny gat [/sp]off, he owned he was the major reason i got sr3, he was the best character

[QUOTE=McGee;33897261]holy shit why did they kill[sp] johnny gat [/sp]off, he owned he was the major reason i got sr3, he was the best character[/QUOTE] Think they wanted to prove that anyone can die, and a rumor about the actor quitting the series, or too busy with that show on CBS. Since they can't replace [sp]Gat's VA unlike Shaundi, they decided to kill him. Besides, Shaundi appeared in 2 games(SR2 and SRTT), she could have changed. Gat was in all 3 games, and didn't change much, until Aisha died. Beat the game, you might be surprised though(unless you did).[/sp] Finally did both endings, I think the [sp]Steelport seceding from the United States was badass, but the Save Shaundi ending has a higher chance of being canon since the Boss cares for his/her friends. But, it might be necessary to let Shaundi, Mayor Reynolds, and Viola die to get revenge, and finish off STAG. Besides, if they need an antagonist, there is one person left who the Boss wants dead, but they need to find Dex so they can kill him. And this is assuming that in the city-state ending, Kia dies. Unless she got off the statue and left the Saints there to die. Still, I would say 51/49, 51% saying that Save Shaundi is the canon ending, 49% that the city-state is canonical.[/sp]
[QUOTE=IdolNinja;33888877]Gentlemen of Steelport v1.0 Beta 1 released!

First thing that came to mind when I did that mission was recreating the memories of causing mayhem with the unlimited Dark Jak unlock on Jak 2, haha Current progress looks good though, loving the city changes caused by the mission replayer

A Saint city could be your crib, the missions could be on other islands that you have to take a plane to go to. [/sp] [sp] Also mayor Pierce would be funny, they could have him mayor for 1 day then kick him off and make Genki the mayor of Steelport and he makes everything all crazy and fucked up [/sp]
Anyone got a 33-50% discount slip for sr3? I really want to get it for my brother as a belated christmas present.

I can't believe i already got bored with Saints Row 3. There's just nothing interesting to do after you complete the story and those activities that actually unlock something useful. Well, my friend's probably gonna buy this any day now, see if the co-op gets me back into it..

SR1 had you die on a boat(but really you didn't), SR2 had you kill one of the OTHER founding members of the Saints(and in the DLC kill another old Saint). Seems like the statue one fits the old ending-style better.[/sp]
It seems like Gentlements of steelport rapes every HQ to lvl 1 and completing quests otherway doesnt reward you with achs or any rewards.
[QUOTE=Cold Finger;33899537]Where did you get that info? I want to read up on this.[/QUOTE] You don't know a joke when you see it do you? ATI cards have had major problems on several new releases lately, so "by the looks of it" Nvidia has bribed several companies to make ATI cards have performance problems on their new titles.
Is it worth getting a 560ti rather than an ATi HD 6970 for this, if ATi really have all these bugs and shit?
[QUOTE=geogzm;33904438]Is it worth getting a 560ti rather than an ATi HD 6970 for this, if ATi really have all these bugs and shit?[/QUOTE] I have a 6970, I have astronomically little to no problems in anything, ever. Except for Witcher 2, but I think I broke the settings there myself somehow. Then again, I'm a bit biased towards ATI from the get-go, so take as you will.
