Saints Row is updated fixing more than 200 bugs

The title has been updated with more than 200 bug fixes . This new patch mainly focuses on stability, quality of life, co-op, and gameplay. Volition confirmed that this update is just the beginning of continued support for the game over the next few months. They have acknowledged that “this update has taken a little longer ” than they would have liked.

No one cares, game flopped and that arrogant studio got dissolved and assimilated into another.

[porkChop]

They weren't dissolved. They're just being moved from working under Deep Silver to working with Gearbox. Basically their publisher changed.

[RaidenBlack]

They should consider ditching that ageing proprietary engine and switch to UE5 and win back some of the fans by remaking the first two Saints Row. (yea, I know asking for Remakes is lazy but is still a much better option for the studio than risking another rushed subpar entry in this reboot series. Once the remake(s) turns out good and wins back some of the fanbase, then they can plan a proper high quality sequel to the Reboot).

"They should consider ditching that ageing proprietary engine and switch to UE5 and win back some of the fans by remaking the first two Saints Row."

I'd happily pick up SR1 and 2 remakes. It's just disappointing that it took a game flopping for Volition to realize they need to actually respect the end user of their product.

The studio doesn't exist anymore... volition is gone.

Nice story bro (you dug deep and way up in there before pulling it out). It's not a mainstream game. Thats the point of Saints Row games, it makes a mockery of them. And the team is legendary (another point of love displayed in-game) to the point that they can pick and choose. In a world...where "arrogant" gamers think they know it all, but find out the game they hate is a developer/team love letter...but don't get it (makes it so much sweeter).

[jjb1981]

They nailed the mockery so perfectly that they played themselves. The game is booty cheeks. It's already like $30.

[ChubbyBlade]

Try harder. Your payroll is showing.

[RavageX]

Spoken like someone in denial.

[BlaqMagiq1]

You actually liked this garbage? That's REALLY sad.

[Gamingsince1981]

All those bugs fixes but it still doesn't make it a game worth playing even for free.

[porkChop]

Bro, they do in fact exist. Just Google it.

"Financially, Saints Row has performed in line with management expectations in the quarter. Going forward, Volition will transition to become part of Gearbox which has all the tools, including an experienced management team in the US, to create future success at Volition."

"This is the first internal group transfer where we transfer a major studio between operative groups, but it is not necessarily the last,"

Like I said, Gearbox is taking over as their publisher/owner. Gearbox is likely a better fit than Koch Media/Plaion was.

[Activemessiah]

Ok, my bad. it seems they are keeping the name despite the transfer.

Also the twat who wrote that article is downplaying how bad things were. I wish nothing but terrible outcomes for that studio and their future endeavours.

[bestofyou]

Did they replace the horrible characters? Did they bring back the Politicly incorrect fun of the game? Nope? then no thanks.

[BlackTar187]

lol it’s true. The game was progressive garbage.

[Christopher]

Tell me you haven't played the game without telling me you haven't played the game. It's a very politically incorrect game, btw.

[bestofyou]

cool story bro

[ChubbyBlade]

Thanks for telling everyone you’re the one who hasn’t played it

[Christopher]

Holy cow. You people really haven't played the game.

[Demetrius]

Lol ikr

[Eonjay]

200 bugs is an infestation. Game may need to be exterminated.

[Blaze929]

$35 on Amazon...it can get cheaper.

[Zombieburger638]

They couldn’t bother to launch the game in an acceptable state so congrats just another studio I have blacklisted. Modern games are a joke.

[kingnick]

With the numbers of developers rushing half baked products out the door to meet launch deadlines you're going to miss out on a lot of games. Better to wait 6-12 months till a game is discounted and/or had multiple patches before buying.

[CRASHBASHUK]

i played it not bad but not great but this patch is a little too late or should of delayed the game again

[Profchaos]

It's pretty clear the game was a rush job with nearly all the animation work being cut and pasted from sr3/4 and the same glitches and bugs coming over from a decade back.

And now the publisher stated they acknowledge the game polarised the fanbase it's unlikely we will see this experiment continue.

Best case sr is handed off to another team who will handle it properly including modernising the gameplay while retaining fan favourite elements including 8ts original cast

[chicken_in_the_corn]

Great game. Shame about the response it got.

[jlove4life]

Is it fixing the boring wokeness

[HeliosHex]

Can't fix the biggest bug of all. The existence bug.
