Is it seriously on the same engine?
I thought I read somewhere that they were working on massive changes to the engine...
Am I wrong?
Does anyone have a link to some better, readable scans?

Main guy of the company said lots of times that they are "building technology from the ground up and it's amazing, can't wait to show it blah blah blah" VS one comment on facepunch based purely on low res scans from the magazine.
Gat and Shaundi, but no Pierce? I guess he got tired of being the team buttmonkey and quit?
I just read the new info, and I'm still mopping the jizz. Gonna leave a stain this.
Closest thing SR2 had to a tank was the Bear APC. Or that Red Faction car.
ridiculous but I must have it
another one to add to my shopping list

The Red Faction cars automatic rocket launcher was the best thing ever. Instant 5 star wanted ratings.
[release] Confirmed costumes include space suits, cowboys/cowgirls, cheerleaders, mexican wrestlers, superheroes, pirates, ninjas, and [B]furries[/B].[/release]
Lovely.
What the fuck, I want Pierce! He and Gat were my favourite characters from SR2.
I don't know why, but I have a feeling they're bringing back Shaudi as a romantic interest for the MC. I just have this strange feeling.

Bright side is there will probably be a mission where you have to burn some people in furry suits.

That or she dies.
1. Saints Row 3 starts with a bungled heist that sees the majority of the gang jailed. This raises the ire of a new gang, the Syndicate, which holds you and your closest allies prisoner on a jet. The gang wants to squeeze a percentage of the Saints' monthly profits, which of course leads to a fight and causes your character to jump out of the jet. That's how the Saints roll.
Damn, that is badass.
2. Johnny Gat and Shaundi, two of your major allies from Saints Row 2, will be returning as accomplices.
Wait, who is that mysterious Saints woman near the jet? Could that be her, cleaned up and no longer a hippie drug slut? Or is that another Saints leader?
3. Weapons can now be upgraded. For example, you can fit sniper scopes and under-barrel grenade launchers to the assault rifle.
I like.
4. Another character is Oleg, an eight-foot-tall monster of a man that can toss cars around. The Syndicate attempts to clone him, but science goes wrong and creates a bunch of dumb copies. These will show up as new enemy types in the game.
*still laughing about this*
5. A new RC gun lets you shoot an electronic bug that can control vehicles remotely. You will be able to upgrade it to control tanks and air transport.
RCing a car, alright. RCing a tank, badass. Air transport RCing, especially one holding a tank and enemy gang members, in the words of Despicable Me: Light bulb.
6. Three new gangs: Morning Star, which model themselves after masked wrestlers. The Deckers, computer nerds into money laundering and security. STAG, a government-sanctioned group designed to destroy other gangs.
7. Meh, unless they are more fucked up than 1 and 2 combined(and funnier).
8. Missions can be completed in multiple ways. For instance, you could blow up an important skyscraper, or take the building over. Another example if stealing a Morning Star boat full of prostitutes -- you can sell the boat back to the gang, or keep it and pimp the girls yourself for profit.
Hmm, keep the enemy gang boat that has their prostitutes, or sell it to them, can't we sell them, then kill the gang members getting the girls and keep the boat and women to the Saints?
9. A traditional leveling system has been included this time. Your Respect gauge now works like experience points. You'll rank up with increased respect, and kit out your character with new perks and weapons. Player choice will be paramount.
So, we don't need respect for missions? Thats good.
10. Cars can be upgraded with more features this time. Various aesthetic and performance tweaks will be offered, such as durable bumpers, extra speed, oversized spoilers and colored underglows. More costume options for the player character are, of course, available. Confirmed costumes include space suits, cowboys/cowgirls, cheerleaders, mexican wrestlers, superheroes, pirates, ninjas, and furries.
Okay, that seems awesome, except the last one.
11. New weapons include a giant dildo and tactical airstrikes. That is the most extreme spectrum I've seen.
TACTICAL AIRSTRIKE THEM! TA THEM AGAIN! I will have fun with the airstrikes.
12. Every single weapon has included a specific animation for nut shots. With a pistol, you'll drop to a knee and whip the gun into the fruits. With a bazooka, you'll take a full golf swing at the tender portions.
Ouch, funny, but ouch.
13. The button for sprinting has been dubbed the AWESOME button because, in contextual situations, it will make your character do cool things. For example, if you sprint to a car, you'll do a missile dropkick through the window to hijack cars more efficiently.
Awesome, damn right its awesome. Regular people open the door and hijack the car. The Saints hijack by dropkicking the window and the passenger.
14. Confirmed Activity side-missions include: Professor Genki's Super Ethical Reality Climax, a Japanese game show full of dangerous stunts and, I'm sure, plenty of charming racism. Tank Mayhem, in which you use a tank to destroy specific high value targets. Guardian Angel, where you must drive carefully around town with a tiger in the back of your car.
Not sure on the PGSERC. Tank Mayhem is going to be badass. Guardian Angel, not sure, I mean, a tiger? What will that do anyways?
15. As earlier stated, online multiplayer has been killed off, but the co-op remains intact.
I don't even play multiplayer SR2, then again, damn you XBL. It sucks they can't have some free-roam multiplayer.
Make sure the PC version is optimized.
[QUOTE=ForcedDj;28502391]Guardian Angel, not sure, I mean, a tiger? What will that do anyways?.[/QUOTE]
Apparently if you drive recklessly/stupidly, the tiger will get pissed and attack you. If you play co-op, the second player has to piss off the tiger to divert it's attention away from you if you happen to piss it off.
Hopefully it won't wind up like those bullshit GTA SA car missions where if you touch one car/wall you fail.
anybody want to play some sr2 (pc) co-op some time this week? add me on steam.
It's kind of sad that they decided to drop MP altogether and just have co-op I really loved the protect the pimp, king of the hill, and chop shop in sr1. Why couldn't they just have reused those?

The "coop" may be like GTAIV's freeroam, I'm also hoping it will implement those game modes.

She dies on Mars
Saints Row the Third, I definitely want to pre-order it now. I mean, tank skydiving was funny, but RCing that and air transport, DROPKICKING DRIVERS TO HIJACK? What is Grand Theft Auto V? Is that some kind of sandbox game? GTA went to the serious route, while Saints Row went to fucked up, crazy, funny as hell route.
Dropkicking cars to hijack them? Swinging bazookas into people's nuts? Shaundi and Gat return?

that's one pimped out uzi
I didn't get very far in SR2 because it lagged a bit on my PC, but I'm redownloading it from steam and I'll try the fix listed in the OP.
[editline]9th March 2011[/editline]
hopefully there's some more red faction ties
What happened to... That black guy in your gang? Was he just so forgettable that even though he was your lieutanent in SR2 he just disappears in 3?
Maybe he's one of them who dies at the start of SR3? I sure hope he isn't. Maybe they forgot to mention him or..something.
I'm clinging on bare threads there!
