Saints Row The Third

i have no problem driving....hmm

Driving is easy as shit in this game. You can completely drop from 100mph to 0 in like 2 seconds.

I don't think anyone said they have a problem driving. The camera is just too close. I want to be able to see the world around me, not just the fucking rear bumper of the car.

This game is pretty tough. I really like the new RPG leveling system. It seems like the only way to do certain things is to level up your character first. But what's the best way to do that? And what's the easiest way to earn money? So far I've only been able to buy one property that only gets me $100/hour.

That predator drone thing, is it unlimited? I haven't messed with it since that early mission but I'm guessing you basically have to use it to get rid of all the fucking helicopters that appear to kill your ass?

I really like the way side missions are handled now. I tried one of the assassination missions and one of the chop shop missions. I like how it gives you a tip on where to find the person/vehicle and how to draw them out. But man if the cops weren't right on my ass when I tried jacking my first chop shop car. I couldn't just rip the guy out it seems so I shot his ass and the cops were on me like white on rice. Maybe I was just unlucky?

can't wait to get my hands on this for some co-op

Do some insurance, mayhem, Dr Genki ETC Missions. Then do the gang control things... which look like little fists on the map. And continue to buy property. You make a few thousand on missions plus if you do the gang thingies you'll receive more money hour. I make like 1800 dollars an hour.

That's the thing. The gang territories kick my ass. Those helicopters show up with the snipers and fuck my shit up.

Make use of your phone and call in Shaundi or if you unlocked the big dude, he is a fucking beast.

Or the Saints backup upgrade is pretty useful as well.

I completely forgot about being able to call in Shaundi.

Can she die? If so, what happens if she does?

Does anyone know how much money you lose when you did and respawn at the hospital? I know the game says something like a "small amount" but I never really checked. I'm just glad you don't lose all your weapons like in GTA. I sue to always just reload a previous save if I died in GTA because losing all that money and your weapons was brutal.

I like the photo op things. Pretty cool.

Oh, and my Season Pass code must've worked because it shows as "purchased" in the DLC menu.

Has anyone tried Whored Mode yet? Is that just like a Gears Horde mode?

I haven't been able to get past wave 7 in the 4-5 tries I did my myself, but each wave begins with a new type of weapon to use solely for that wave and the enemy is usually different every wave. One example is I had to defeat all these gimps with a giant dildo, next wave I had a rocket launcher and had to kill 2 giant steroid junkies wearing short shorts and a white T.

Man that sounds beyond awesome.

For quick cash, do the Assassination/Chop Shop missions.

Each Chop Shop "boss" will give you a list of 6 or so vehicles to steal with increasing money/respect bonuses for completing them.

You also get higher Cop Shield ratings for each car you steal (I've gotten 4 just for a boat once... damn Coast Guard boat was lobbing 120 mm shells at my ass).

What you do is set a waypoint to your garage at Shaundi's Ex's Pad (your first hideout) and drop the vehicle you stole in there.

Run upstairs and into said safehouse to lose any cop/gang attention and then retrieve said vehicle to drop it off with no hassle afterward.

It's cheap but it'll save you a lot of time and money if you can drive well enough... but it's a crapshoot with aircraft/watercraft.

The caveat with doing the SaintsBook missions is that you have to keep tabs on them so you don't accidentally lock yourself out of one because of a story mission you completed or a territory you took over.

ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE TRYING TO 100% THE GAME.

Other than that, if you don't care about game dialogue, do all the Blue Side Missions and buy all the property/stores.

Also, call in back-up when you can (particularly Oleg once you unlock him) and always bring a tank with you when given the opportunity.

The Predator Drone counts as a "Special Weapon" (same as the McManus Sniper Rifle, the Annihilator Rocket Launcher, the RC Remote and the Remote C4...).

You can reload their ammo at any local Friendly Fire and it's upgradable like the rest of your grenades/guns so you can get more of them as you pay to unlock said upgrades.

As for the early Armory Mission, you were supposed to kill the tanks/humvees, not the Helicopters (until you left that is).

The green dot guys were you own gang; the red dots were the enemy.

I knew that. I'm talking about the Syndicate helicopters that seem to appear constantly with the snipers.

Shaundi's treated like any other Homie you can call in after you unlock them.

They can die if you don't revive them but that just means you have to front the money for their hospital bills (usually a little over $200).

After that, you just have to wait a little while to call her back up again.

[JayDizzle]

I knew that. I'm talking about the Syndicate helicopters that seem to appear constantly with the snipers.

All I can tell you for those guys is pray for a headshot (moreso on Hardcore difficulty) or shoot the chopper down with upgraded weapons.

If you can, go back to the Armory and swipe one of the humvees with a .50 cal on the top of it and/or a Tank and put it one of your garages.

Either will make your life simpler and they always respawn back to your grage if you have to ditch either of them.

[Helicopter]

Is there a garage for the "penthouse" crib? If so, where?
