Saints Row 2 Hints. Get in the helicopter with your follower (s) and fly to any one of the tall buildings (I recommend the buildings in both the Saints Row distirct and the Downtown area). Next land your helicopter on said building, shoot (or punch) one of your followers until they fight back. After that, grab them and throw them off.
Overview Players can cause large amounts of chaos throughout Stilwater.Saints Row 2 is a crime-themed, mission-based, open world game that looks to continue evolving the over-the-top gameplay formula of its predecessor. With many comparisons to the series, it is no surprise that Volition have chosen to take the game in this direction to individualize it and perhaps gain an identity outside of all those comparisons.
Saint's Row 2 has the player work his way through a vastly improved, a 150% larger version of the city with new areas including a prison island, a power plant, suburbs, and some underground sections, dispensing of rival gang members and otherwise unruly denizens to reclaim the turf and respect his once lofty gang has lost. A wide variety of vehicles can be used, including biplanes.Saint's Row 2 boasts many of the same features of the first game such as diversions (known as 'Activities'), as well as a host of new features such as varying degrees of customization including complete character customization, vehicle customization, and crib customization, a revamped respect system, new vehicles including jets, speedboats, jet skis, and, new weapons including, shock paddles, stun guns, and, gameplay, and online multiplayer. Story The Third Street Saints.Saints Row 2 picks up several years after the events of the first game., the player's character who was thought to be dead at the end of the first game after being betrayed by his own gang members, awakes from a coma induced by a bombed yacht but is horribly disfigured. The game opens with a reconstructive surgical procedure, allowing players to freely customize the look of the player character. Upon returning to, the lead character notices that much has changed, from building renovations that have added more high-rise buildings and apartments, to the situations that his old friends and gang members have gotten into. The player character must now deal with all of these changes and somehow restore the Row to its former glory. GangsThere are four gangs in Stilwater:.
The player character's gang. The Saints were broken up after the events of the first game, and it's time to bring them back, stronger than ever. Their flag color is purple. A gang that largely deals with violent crimes and extortion. Led by Maero.
Their flag color is red. A Japanese gang that deals with gambling and prostitution. Led by Shogo Akuji, though his father seems to really have most of the power. Their flag color is yellow.
A gang that deals with heavy drug trafficking. Led by 'The General'. Their flag color is green.GameplayThe combat of Saints Row 2 is slightly different from that of other games in the genre. For starters, there is no, with the player having to free aim.
This can be accomplished by either pressing the fire button when pointed at an enemy, or the player can click in the left stick for a more accurate, 'zoomed-in' aiming mode. If the player has a gun equipped, the right trigger will fire, while the left trigger will melee attack. If the player has an inventory weapon available, it can be swung with both the left and right triggers. If unarmed, the player's melee has a sort of 'combo' system; if the player successfully lands three hits on an opponent, the third hit will spin the camera around and cinematically show the character performing a special attack that ground his enemy. By holding either trigger, the player can also charge up his attack, making it extra deadly. A couple of interesting features of SR2's combat are the use of environmental objects and the mechanic. There are certain objects in the game that can be picked up and wielded like melee weapons, like cinder blocks.
These items can be dropped however, if the player is knocked down, and are not held in the inventory like normal weapons. Also, by holding the left bumper the player can take a nearby enemy hostage as a 'human shield'. While having a shield, the player is virtually invincible from the front, but moves slower in return. Also, by pressing the left trigger, the player will 'execute' his shield in a way specific to the weapon he is holding. There are numerous weapons that appear in Saints Row Two, which include: Melee. (Slaps enemy and sends them flying).(can be dual wielded).
