For the new start is that based on getting the right amount of respect in terms of safety or is there no time loss compared to the old route or taking 2 tags? (20 seconds)

And how does the end part keep the heli in the menu?

I'm gunna stream tonight (soonish) with more practice but it'll probably just be early game stuff again, I'm not sure whether or not I should grind up to veteran child and get consistent at the early game or do a full run playthrough in order to jog my memory of all the missions, what do you think?

I feel like my ability to get consistent will not really be a problem and a lack of memory is my biggest hurdle at the moment, even though it may not be the best way to get better at the run in general

No problems at all man, SR2 is pretty much all i'll be streaming from now on until I meet my goal except for when I stream with my girlfriend :)

I did 9 tornado attempts yesterday and not once did I get a spawn, however sellz was there and he let me know about save files interrupting each other so I'm thinking that's why I was having no luck.

So i've sorted out my save files and got a shortcut so I can delete them every time I want to start fresh :) Gunna be doing more practice tomorrow night and the night after, can't wait :D

And yeah I guess it's true it's not as bad as dampe, but at least you can farm dampe over and over, at least i'm getting lots of practice for the start of the run i guess lol

Tornado spawn is doing my head in man.. 3 runs this morning with a sub 13:30 down payment with no tornado spawn.. please lol :(

Also, where abouts in the run do we get the oppressor to be able to fly it after veteran child?

Got it, I was being retarded lol

Okay I'm back :) Have started re-learning everything and am making decent progress. I've only encountered one problem however and that is how to warp back to the start of insurance fraud after completing level 1.. Am i missing something and just being retarded?

I'm going to start streaming now so if you're awake it'd be awesome if you could stop by dude :)

Okay so they used to appear randomly but now it's more fixed? Basically means less enemies in the way?

Thanks for the response :) Could you explain what you mean by better map rng?

Hey guys, just seen this run on AGDQ and am thinking about picking it up sometime this year.. Looks really fun, my question is are there any disadvantages to buying this on WiiU compared to PC? I would just like to know if I am hindering myself by buying it on Console before I go and make a purchase

Thanks :)

Hey, I definitely have plans to get back into SR2 in december, and am hoping to meet my goal (sub 6, maybe sub 5:30/45 if the sub 6 run is terrible) before january, but sellz pls your 5:50 IGT is definitely WR haha :) screenshot/photo of screen is enough proof for sure.

Going to be doing another run in the next 24 hours with some of sellz new tips but also a few other bits and pieces. Still hoping to just finish the run and get an average time to see what we will be able to achieve.. Hopefully my PC doesn't crash again lol.

Martinz I forgot about taxi rides thats why I felt that it was too far away, I'm assuming now that you can get a taxi that leads relatively close to the trailer park :)

Hey I've recently watched the any% glitchless run and have started practicing the route.

I am curious though if anybody can give me the stats required (Two Hand, Destruction etc) for each part of the run (maybe at the end of each split?)

Any help is appreciated :) Cheers!

Alright guys so my game crashed at 4 hours and 30 minutes in, which kinda sucks lol the game started to lag really hard just before it happened.

So after 4 hours and 30 minutes I believe I only had a couple of ronin missions left, the brotherhood, and ultor.

Even with the major amount of mistakes I made in a, missions, b, no taxi's and c, driving, I think we can beat this game relatively quicker then we thought we could.

Also, I forgot to buy clothes and tattoos, and I did a second septic activity before I bought the car, so more time could be saved there in the form of respect.

The helicopter is definitely going to be an advantage, especially when there is little need to farm any more experience from activities and we want to keep the story missions going sequentially.

In terms of your splits Martin I got really confused when I went to do some of the sons strongholds, I think that will need to be routed a bit differently as I found myself deciding it was simply too far away at each point to consider going to it. Also the Stronghold 4 to FUZZ Projects 6 is perfect but that activity didn't show up for me at that point in the run? Not sure if it was just a glitch though

I also found myself savewarping constantly as a lot of the ronin and sons missions start point were at our base. It actually makes it really convenient lol

Let me know what you guys think :)

Don't worry about the question about increasing the style, I see now in your last post that increasing it to level 7 will yield 35x extra respect for each activity, significantly lowering the activities needed to complete.

Any suggestions for the quickest way to earn money without completing activities? Do the pimps in snatch drop significant amounts of cash? This could be easiest and most consistent way to get enough money by the end of snatch 6. Let me know what you think :)

Hey guys, Am at uni today but will be spending most of my time after it and before the run trying to implement a few more bits and pieces. I think I'm just going to stick with the early farm in order to just get a time down.

But I am thinking maybe I will add in whichever side missions I feel are appropriate for the time/space and just not have any splits for the late game for this run until we figure out the best route.

Also with my splits I definitely do not intend to just complete all of 1 gangs missions in one shot. Whatever is closest to my finishing point decides where I will go next, however finishing sons early does offer early helicopter access. Do we think helicopter access would be better overall then taxi's? Maybe for more specific missions that have awkward to drive areas?

Also I believe we should be using RTA, for the simple fact that it's going to be any% and the use of savewarping is too handy not to include. The deciding factor for RTA would primarily be whether or not in game load times vary heavily between individuals PC's, which I don't think they do seeing as it's a console port.

But I'll definitely include my IGT in my submission in the comments section :)

A few more questions, why are you trying to increase your style? What does this do in game? And also, I haven't tested but is it believed that a taxi is quicker then savewarp? because savewarp was my plans for exiting crowd control early on and also relocating to mayhem and finishing that at 5 (in the suburbs) to lead into the first mission.

I'm just going to keep posting questions as they pop into my head, glad to see there are at least a few people willing to give this a shot.

Hey guys, planning to do my first complete run that has a bit of routing involved, it's not fully optimised but it will probably work relatively well for now. Only the first part of my run will be routed and the rest will be based on what I remember from my first playthrough, and I'm assuming ill pick up things as more runs are done :)

The SDA post for Saints Row 2 has a few handy tips as to what the best missions are for gaining respect, It's going to be cool to see what times we can come up with in the near future :)

My splits for the first area would probably go as follows: Escape Gat [6] Septic (Suburbs) [X] Crowd Control (Suburbs) (Haven't decided if 6 needs to be done) [6] Snatch (Downtown) [6] Fraud (Factories) [6] FUZZ (Projects) [X] Fight Club (Arena) [5] Mayhem (Red Light) Sons of Samedi [6] FUZZ (Suburbs) Ronin [6] Drug Trafficking (Airport) Brotherhood Finish

Let me know what you think of this order and if you can fill in the gaps with some good ideas before tomorrow that would be awesome :) I think all the side missions I have included equal up to around 40x respect, will have to double check.

p.s will be running tomorrow night, so about 24-25 hours from now :)
