Impressively, Saint’s Row 2‘s cooperative campaign directly mirrors the game’s single-player story mode. Hit the jump for details and impressions of the game’s cooperative mode, as well as its competitive games-within-a-game “Strongarm” mode. THQ and Volition recently held an event to show off another aspect of Saint’s Row 2 that they hope will make it stand out from the crowd - its multiplayer modes. And that’s a good thing in trying to find the game’s identity, Volition have taken Saint’s Row 2 in the polar opposite direction of its direct competition, the automobile stealing title that shall not be named. It’s clear that Saint’s Row 2, in terms of its themes and tone, isn’t going to be a serious affair. And while we’ve yet to see any glass-eating, you can play the game as a female with a man’s voice wearing a hot dog suit and clown shoes. While THQ and Volition didn’t pick up Anderson, they did announce adult actress Tera Patrick as a “special producer” on the game. I find while in adrenaline mode lower, sports cars just shoot me straight up a little bit, not much air and not many points.When we first got our paws on an early build of Volition’s Saint’s Row 2 in April, we called it “ a $200-a-head Las Vegas illusionist performance featuring Pamela Anderson, then Volition’s sequel is a balls-to-the-wall, over-the-top Coney Island sideshow starring a limbless, glass-eating female midget named Senorita Cobrita.”Īs it turns out, our first impressions were closer to the truth than even we had expected. Play around with diving while in adrenaline mode, get a feel for what cars do what to you. Once your in adrenaline mode it basically activates low gravity, so when you get hit you get launched. Get to the highlighted special bonus area and hit whatever you can to build up your adrenaline meter. Insurance Fraud is another matter, it can be a total pain in the ass, but don't give up - adrenaline mode can rack up big points and save you in a hurry. Mayhem can be hard and frustrating, but it can be beat. Try using the bookmark feature to mark locations of fences, outdoor cafes with chairs/tables/umbrellas and other high value targets, put your bookmarks down in sequence to choreograph your route. Look high and low, in the most unlikely of places, in the factories district for example silos are surrounded by fences, and at least one factory is home to a hobo shanty village like what you destroyed at the start of the game, those shanties are 10k a pop and there's a bunch of em. Blow anything not tied down.Īlso Mayhem will cycle through a certain number of given locations, if you are really having trouble, start and cancel and see which areas are in the cycle then scout them out. Don't be afraid to blow other stuff too, benches, parking meters, light poles, mail boxes, tables, chairs.
Fences are your friend though, and primary source of raising your combo meter. The downer with the RPG is the reload time when compared to how quickly the combo meter empties when it gets high enough. Drive along a length of fence if you have a car, set satchel charges at regular intervals and blow them all together if you have them, worst case scenario you RPG the fence.
