[quote name='lilboo']So I have to get it repaired? Cuz when I drive into it.. it wants me to pay for repairs..and that's how it gets saved?[/QUOTE]

It asks if you want the car to be repaired at your garages? Or at the mechanics?

You can only save cars at your safehouse(s). When you pull up, the garage door will open. Pull in and it'll say something like "Press Y to exit the vehicle and save it in the garage." Do so and exit the garage building. The door will close and a message will pop up and say "X Vehicle is now saved"

Then go to the glowing spot outside said garage and hit Y to bring up a list of your available cars.

 

[lilboo]

Ohhhh, wait. Where are the garages? Because what I was doing was that I stole a car not too far from the mechanics and I'd pull it in. If it had damage it'd asked for repairs, but since I would get them really close to the Mechanics it was still in good condition. I'd pull it and said "Would you like to visit mechanics" I said yes, then exited and left the car--and that's how my cars would save.

So where are the garages that you can just drive up to and leave???

The first house you're given near the church. Immediately south of the river and to the right of the bridge leading to the construction site.

Ones eazy and the one with the boxes I have deemed "Impossible"

Not impossible, me and zew did it.

 

[Roufuss]

The Hitman missions were easy... I finished them all pretty quickly, in about 2 hours. Just leave them on your HUD and just drive around and goof off, you'll find them in no time.

Only two people gave me any trouble.

 

[elsnow77]

[quote name='mr ryles']Ones eazy and the one with the boxes I have deemed "Impossible"[/quote]

yeah, that one is impossible, i have tried it so many times, but the mall one i got on second try

 

[rly723]

yeah the hitman missions are annoying, it tells you the general area they are in, but seems like a pain to just randomely search for them

one issue i have w/ the game, why when you hit someone with the knife or bat, theres no blood. its only shown when shooting them.

 

[thamaster24]

Does anyone know the levels you have to get to, to get the various ranks in multiplayer? I'm the lowest but I think I'm close to the next, I might just play this online til GoW comes out... but does anyone how to get the ranks?

 

[Graystone]

[quote name='thamaster24']but does anyone how to get the ranks?[/QUOTE]

[Zoglog]

looo dee dooo... still waiting for a patch to make multiplayer PLAYABLE

Volition has finally released a patch

I just have to rant here that this agitates me. I know for a FACT, that Microsoft sits on patches for months. Every time you see a game patched, you see people say "shit finally developer X releases a patch!" and the developer gets blamed.

Microsoft sits on and tests these patches for months on average (like kaloki x for example) depending on how popular the game is. It just pisses me off because MS makes the developer look bad.

[LinkinPrime]

Sweet, I finally get to enjoy the XBL part of this game.

 

[Sporadic]

I don't think it's up yet.

Here's what Kakesu (guy that works for Volition) said over at SA.

[quote name='Kakesu']Since it's up on our official news page, I suppose I'm free to mention here that the SR title update has been approved by Microsoft for release on Xbox Live. I don't know details yet on when it will be released, but as soon as I find out I'll update with the patch notes.

[terribledeli]

I just put the game in. No updates available.

 

[KaneRobot]

Hope it's up, then. About in' time. Break yo'self, chump!

 

[zewone]

I hope it's up soon, because if not, there is no way I'll be playing Saints Row on Live when GoW/Rainbow Six come out.

 

[thamaster24]

So does anyone know the various ranks and what level or games won/played you have to get to?

 

[Mojimbo]

That's great, I played a few games and didn't notice a difference so I was worried the patch didn't do shit.

 

[pimpinc333]

Patch has come a month too late.

 

[Bazz]

Just got this game it's okay game , but man does it need some blood and some more sounds when walking around. It seems so quiet all I hear is my 360 fan. Also yeah they need that patch the lag is horrible.

 

[CYRiX]

Yay, the patch should tide me over until GoW lol.

 

[T234]

Is the single player in this any good?


And what is the cheapest price for it?

 

[Scorch]

I love starting the Insurance Fraud missions and just run around and fall into stuff. The best thing i've done so far was at some sort of mill or something. I parked an ambulance and climbed on top then ran and jumped from the ambulance to the building (if you run, jump, then 'take a dive', you flyyyyy). Anyway, I landed on the roof and proceeded to run up pipes and managed to get insanely high. I love exploring like that. There's nothing up there, of course, but it's fun to play human plinko (Price is Right FTW!) and fall to the ground.

 

[Saucy Jack]

I just rented this game and my brother and I have been messing around with it. It's really fun!

Gotta love getting hit by cars so hard that you are thrown off bridges and into water. :lol:

What's even funner is that bridge by the first safehouse.. if you run up behind someone and fire a shot, they freak out.. if you run behind them and to the left a bit, they'll start running to the right.. directly into traffic. This creates human golf, and lots of laughter.

Oh, yeah. :lol:

I love hitting someone so hard that they fly through the windshield and hit another car like a human ping-pong ball.

sweett

 

[orntar]

how's the lag?

 

[Zoglog]

so is it no longer broken?

 

[Ma12kez]

Cool. Thanks for the heads up. I think I'll start playing the MP now if it's more playable than last time.

Why not just go and look at reviews? Yes it's a good game but everyone has different tastes. If you like GTA you should like this.
