I hope SR3 is a little more realistic(like when people fall and sh*t).

[OverTheBelow]

I think the driving should be the most important focus during development. It was horrific on SR2.

 

Oh, and they could spend a bit more time on the PC port too.

[Narcis_speed6]

The only news we got on sr3 is that developers said they are going to take the game in a totally different way, no more gangstas.

Definitely, also i think they should use a new physics engine, i just hated when you fell off a roof and you looked like a blow-up sex doll. Still the fun was there to be had. I hope they don't stray too far from it like IV because that's what people bought the first 2 for.

[Brown Sugar]

I'd like better driving too, it was annoying in the first place but with the speed bug on windows 7 which I couldn't get fixed it was nearly impssible, and maybe if they got more of their own ideas and made it less similar to gta it could be better.

[Narcis_speed6]

The one thing I loved about SR2 was the quality and humor in cutscenes.

[Vercetti27]

I assume it will be as sh*t as the first two

[kaptainkoolkat]

They were not sh*t.

[tubbs51]

In your opinion they were... but in mine they were a blast...

[Rebel]

Only thing they should sort out is the driving like the fact you don't feel your going about 2mph when you're probably going over 100. I'm sure if I played either again I'd remember more. Oh and f*ck those impossible side quests like the drug trafficking and escorting because some of those were near impossible. Other than that, I just loved them for how f*cking stupid they were. Bring back more of the ''Cops'' side quests to they were funny.

The fuzz ones were the best... nothing like using a chainsaw in a Domestic dispute

I thought saints row 2 was awesome, so much fun to play!

And thats the whole point of a game is to have fun, so many people are to caught up focusing on "graphics and physics engines" that they seem to have lost the point of gaming

 

There was a sh*t load of fun weapons, customisation on everything, and enough cheats to keep you entertained for hours!

 

And i dont know about anyone else, but i think zooming around stillwater in that little spaceship then jumping out is nothing but epic win

This.

 

I don't really care if they do drop their 'gangsta' stuff as long as they still have features that made SR2 stand out, like deep customization, activities, online co-op, and some other stuff.

[Benjimino234]

I hope they keep the same physics, having a pedestrian crumple and roll over your car is boring... Having them fly meters into the air and have their spines curled around a lamppost is very humorous.

 

But basically I'm hoping that it is in development and will materialize.

[Jay]

Oh and f*ck those impossible side quests like drug trafficking

Drug trafficking was easy if you saved a Bear in your garage, then got it delivered at the start of the mission. The dude gets in whatever car you do, and the armour and unlimited bullets on the mounted gun makes it much easier.

 

I loved both games, regardless of the physics or whatnot. The environments were immersive and (especially in 2) really detailed and pretty. It was picking up the slack that IV left when it shedded all of it's SanAn fun, an enormous niche that it slipped into seamlessly.

Saints Row 3 was supposed to be announced at E3 2010 but then they pushed it to the spike vga awards where they said they would release a trailer but nothing happened.Instead they announced a game that had its release date as 2013. Volition and Rockstar are really killing me with there being no gta5 / sr3 announcement.

My wishlist for SR3-

 

To stop using SA as a back drop, and come up with new, and original ideas like most sandbox games have, but unfortunately get shoved under the rug, because they're not as "gangsta" as SR.

 

If SR3 manages to try something different I'll consider buying it. If it's the same rubbish as the first two games about some random asshole getting into the Saints, and regaining turf in <insert city here> (surely they wont use Stilwater again?) then I wont touch it with a 50 foot pole.

 

Unfortunately I believe it'll be more of the same just with more crappy, and useless features.

i agree whole heartedly... if someone can find fun and entertainment in even the crappiest game then thats what it was meant to do...

 

I hope it retains the same over the top comedy...

 

i can still somewhat remember that line in SR1... it was one of the few lines your character has... i cant remember it but it was funny...

Gaming is for fun. Games are made so people can have fun in their spare time. The majority of shooting games are similar. The majority of sandbox games try to make it their own style, and fail because its not as fun as GTA. So excuse another gaming company for attempting to make a fun sandbox game that has similar features as GTA lol.

So a sandbox game has to be similar to GTA to be fun? Whatever happened to originality? Just for the record I think the AC series is far more superior to SR in every way possible, and it's nothing like GTA.

 

I applaud the efforts of most developers for actually trying to differentiate themselves from GTA. Volition/THQ however seems to like clinging onto R*'s nuts.

I agree with the graphics thing but saying a physics has little to do with the gaming experience is just wrong. Physics is probably the most important thing of a game, it gives the game its "feeling." If a game promises so much it should at least have a decent engine to base it on.

 

Speaking of graphics, the cars, lighting, and texturing should not look less detailed that GTA SA's, that's just embarrassing. And the sounds... lets just hope there is a Doppler effect... I'd rant about more but I'd look like I'm trolling.

 

In all regards, it better make those 12 year old fanboys finally have something to talk about.

Saints row 2 was fun for about 3 weeks. And no, i dont usually get bored of games easily. Haven't completed it yet

 

For me to get the third, it needs

 

- Graphics overall

 

- Give the city some atmosphere, please.

 

- Better story mode, and mission structure

 

- Vehicle physics

 

- Better online mode. Free mode is a must.

 

- No stillwater!!!

 

- Take itself a tad more seriously!

I liked both SR. Although for SR3 I have some wishes:

- Better Graphics. But I think the graphics will be better since we saw some RF:Armageddon trailers and they looked much better.

- A new city. Stillwater is beaten to death.

- Even more customization . This is where Volition scored big time, I would like to see more of it.

- Give us a phat bossfight where we finally take care of Dex.

[macorules94]

Volition stated ages ago, that Saints Row 3 will be very different from the first two games, and will clear alot of things up. And the graphics will be as good as, if not better, than GTA IV. So I'm pretty excited.

[AirWolf856]

Saw this on Blue's News and thought I would pass it along:

 

SR3 Autumn 2011 Release

 

I enjoyed SR2 on the PC even though it was horridly ported (performance was terrible). I did like the crazy/zany missions of SR2 more than I liked the GTA IV missions. It would be interesting to see what R* does now that SR3 has been given a tentative release season. Hopefully, this will push R* into revealing what they have for GTA V.

 

 

[Sunrise Driver]

I'm also glad that release date is still Autumn despite the fact we know nothing about the game.

Honestly there's no excuse for the graphics not be as good if not better then GTA IV considering it's a 3 year old game this year.
