![]() I was not able to figure out how to properly map controls for the hacking minigame. Also broken is analog trigger support throttle for driving is all or nothing. Speaking of QTEs, some are just broken and can't be done through Steam Input. Reloading doesn't work, unless you set a button to keyboard R, but then that breaks QTEs. Second, a lot of stuff is outright broken. I'm not sure if this is a problem with Steam or with SR4, but either way you have to have a SIAPI configuration, or you can't control the game. There are a number of problemsįirst, normal controller templates don't work, but are still allowed. Granted, those glitches are still incredibly annoying and remind us this game probably would have benefited from more polishing time (even if it was delayed at least once for that very reason).The developers of SR4 tried to implement Native Steam Input support, and failed. You will most likely encounter a notable number of bugs and glitches in this game, but many of them will be visual bugs that impact the presentation more than anything else. What I can tell you is that Saints Row isn’t another Cyberpunk 2077 or GTA Remaster situation. Realistically, though, you kind of have to accept that these problems are going to pop up in a lot of modern games from time to time. Obviously, it would be nice if this game (and others like it) had few to no glitches. The question of whether or not Saints Row suffers from an unforgivable number of bugs and glitches really does come down to your personal tolerance level. How Bad Are Saints Row’s Bugs and Glitches? ![]() It’s worth keeping an eye on whether or not subsequent updates address these issues, though. ![]() At the moment, it feels like this is just “one of those things” that is going to happen in most games from time to time. Crashes, Freezing, and Lost Connectionsįinally, Saints Row players have reported numerous instances of the game freezing, crashing, or losing its online connection in a way that obviously prevents them from playing the game.įor what it’s worth, I did not encounter many full crashes during my time with the game, and it does seem like the scope of this particular problem is relatively limited. Just to be on the safe side, though, it’s best to assume that you will have to restart the occasional mission in this game due to one kind of bug or another. We were warned that some of those problems were on the devs’ radars as “known issues,” and it does seem like some of those known issues have already been addressed. ![]() In this instance, those bugs included everything from NPCs that would get stuck in the world and prevent me from completing a mission to “mission fail states” that were seemingly triggered out of the blue. This is kind of a broad topic, but I personally encountered a fairly large number of mission progression bugs during my time with Saints Row. The aiming in this game just feels terrible at the moment, and that obviously makes it difficult to properly experience much of what should be some of the game’s most noteworthy activities One way or another, this problem needs to be fixed. That might actually be a problem with the game’s auto-lock system, but it’s worth noting that I’ve heard numerous players report similar issues with the game’s gun combat. Furthermore, there were numerous times when I just couldn’t seem to aim my weapon anywhere close to where I was trying to aim it. It wasn’t even uncommon for me to miss enemies at point-blank ranges. Simply put, there were many times in Saints Row when my character’s aim was clearly not working as intended. In fact, this might be more of a design problem than anything else. This is, by far, the biggest bug/glitch I ran into in Saints Row in terms of both the number of times I encountered this problem and how it impacted my overall experience. Saints Row’s Aiming System Is Generally Kind of a Mess As such, I’m willing to put a little faith into the idea that this problem has been resolved or wasn’t even that common to begin with. Actually, I don’t know if I’ve heard of anyone encountering this problem in the retail version of the game, and that’s before the day one patch was even released. Now, the good news is that this game-breaking bug doesn’t seem to be that common. This also affected all of my previous saves.- Dan Ryckert August 22, 2022 All my character was able to do was run – no jumping, shooting, entering cars, etc. I intended on having a Saints Row review up today, but roughly 10-12 hours in, I encountered a game-breaking bug on the Xbox version. ![]()
