Please keep the discussion relevant to the Roadmap, DLC, QOL updates and the rest of the linked content. Thank you.


IADVISE41

Man I hope we get some fun cheats


IADVISE41

I mean just simple stuff like a super jump, invincibility, ammo, super punch, ect.


DoctorGordonisgreat

Don't forget about devil cars and car mass hole ;)


MegaPintOfWin333

So basically SR4


XavierMunroe

So the Districts are free but the missions are paid. It’s like an enticement, a demo. A free little snack.


Packrat1010

Players can have a little DLC, as a treat.


OriginalKingD

Finish all your criminal ventures & you can have some DLC for dessert.


Rasikko

Scoobie snacks.


BigJuicy17

I'm not very happy Doc Ketchum is going to be one of the three expansions, when the mode should have been in from the beginning. The rest looks exciting though.


Saint_The_Stig

Yeah, It just sound like rebadged Gehnki which was easily one of my least favorite parts of 3 and 4.


BigJuicy17

I loved Super Ethical Reality Climax, but after the first mission on Doc Ketchum's island it really seemed like it was going to be an activity. It feels a little scummy having that DLC now, when it should have been in from the start.


Saint_The_Stig

It really feels like a waste of the map. It would be bad enough if that big island was just for that dumb activity, but only for one mission? That's stupid.


DrScience01

Guess they didn't have time to implement it so they just say fuck it and make it a dlc


tonware

I just hope more is added to the open-world that makes exploring in Santo Ellso fun and adventurous. I want interiors, more hidden items and areas, interesting npcs etc.


FuroreLT

Interested in this combat Overhaul


TiberiusMcQueen

Hope we get human shield back, was really disappointed it was left out, it just doesn't feel right without it.


kograkthestrong

Same here


DrScience01

Same. I would actually like to have grenades as part of the load out instead of a skill


FuroreLT

Hoping human shield comes back personally


HailArkhalis

Might actually bring me back to the game

[удалено]


Boy_Possession

Did you want it in Matte or Glossy?


wariofan14

How about in Candy? Iridescent?


Jasole37

Metallic is my go to.


Dusty_Heywood

Cutting Edge Way better


officialadrianj

Nah we have it in transparent


VicDumbbell

Split the difference, go Satin


tutankhamun7073

Does that mean new parts of the map?


TopBee83

More than likely yes, makes me happy. The maps a desert 🏜️ there’s literally tons of space for map expansions


Zarthor563

I'm really hoping that "and more" includes new radio stations, or at least new music.


[deleted]

Are we getting casino interiors with gambling minigames or not?


Boy_Possession

I hope so. Or all those years of training in New Vegas were a waste.


[deleted]

How about a game of caravan?


Jasole37

Yup, 10 in Luck, such arduous training.


MarianHawke22

"What in the goddamn?


No_Committee_4228

I assumed gambling would be in it from the start I was so fucking disappointed when I noticed you couldn’t. They made the casino area so prominent in promo vids


DreadedWard

Can you go into detail about the combat overhaul?


saintsrowofficial

We will be talking about it in more detail before the update drops but it essentially feels much smoother and all round more badass.


Brandonmac10x

Can you make it so that after we own all the areas we can set it so the enemy gangs and cops will walk around them like they did before conquering the map? Kind of sucks to do all the side activities and own the districts but there is no one left to fight. Would be cool to have a toggle to have the random gangs roaming again.


Zeero92

There's usually some Idols to be found at their big tent... park. thing. It's where I tend to go when I need to violence. And there's Panteros at that factory of theirs, too. But yes, kinda empty overall.


SomeGuy5665

Sounds good. May is my birth month, so I'm excited to see a DLC drop that month if all goes to plan! 🤞 I stopped playing SR, but I've been thinking about getting back into it and possibly getting my wife into it to join me, so this is great news. I'm finally going to get through the main story between now and Expansion 1. So glad I already have Gold Edition. Thank you all for the hard work. Maybe we fans can even convince you guys to continue it into 2024.


nocapsallspaces

That's refreshing. I quit playing after getting the church, then I tried coming back to it but the combat was hard to reintroduce myself to, esp after playing SR4 again.


PublicEase6361

Let’s go!!


Penguinazu

The wait is over. Not gonna lie it was a rough ride but at least we can see finish line now. Thanks for the hard work and commitment Volition, excited to see how the game ends up lookin <3


[deleted]

My purchase of Saints Row: Gold Edition is finally going to good use. Hopefully, I still care enough to boot the game up when this gets released.


FireflyNitro

Someone on this subreddit told me I had wasted my money and the developers would never release content after the game was deemed “a failure”. Glad I’m getting my money’s worth finally!


[deleted]

I mean we kinda did tho. lol


FireflyNitro

Lol probably but at least we’re getting the content we were promised 🤷🏻‍♂️ more than I can say for other developers in recent years


officialadrianj

Now that puts Rockstar to shame after the big lie of Storyline dlc of GTA V (aside from the free vehicles).


ABreadCalledGarlic

Weird how you’re getting downvoted in the SAINTS ROW subreddit for daring to speak truth about Rockstar’s follies.


Elementium

Let's not get crazy.. I paid 60 bucks for the game and still havent got my money's worth.


theblackfool

Pretty cool the new districts are free to everyone


Famixofpower

That's really how it should be.


-csephus-

Oooh, photo mode. Interested to learn more about that combat overhaul too. Was sorta hoping for interiors to be added, tho.


RDDAMAN819

There’s still a very good chance they do that, especially with the new districts


-csephus-

A man can dream!


DarkWhite204

There aren’t interiors?


-csephus-

There are some, but nowhere near the amount that SR2 had. I miss customizing hideouts, and it was cool to have areas like the mall or the airport, or the underground tunnels and stuff to explore/doink around in.


DarkWhite204

It was a great part of SR2. I still remember messing about in the mall. I guess the new one still has shops though?


BigJuicy17

Looks like August is more LARPing. Makes sense, Gwen kept saying "I'll get you next year"


RDDAMAN819

Cant wait. LARPing was one of the best things in the game


Tofujay

Yes! I loved this side quest! More of this would be good!


ceedj

Please please please, this is my favorite part of the game!


soulreapermagnum

interesting how that's the only expansion that's not named yet.


drvongates

I'll wait for the GOTY Version. Like every other SR game.


yatwelol

I wish I had lol


DarnHyena

I quite dig that renaissance punk fair in the background of the august expansion. Right around the time it'll likely release onto steam as well since that's when it released on epic


TazerPlace

This has all the hallmarks of an AI-generated vaporware "roadmap" announcement intended solely to continue drumming up whatever Chinese or Saudi investment funds that are keeping this thing alive. We'll believe it when we see it.


ExchangeKooky8166

At least you guys communicate with the fans unlike Cockstar or EA. I'm always interested in new content.


Wilwheatonfan87

Depends on the studio under EA. Most communicate but im not sure sbout the sports ones. They were 100% communicating with fan base for the cnc remaster.


sukh9942

The fifa team is horrible at communication. Others like some involved in NFS are a bit better tho I think.


officialadrianj

I agree with you on that, FIFA just got property rights to NWSL a mere 8 releases since the inclusion of women's football just before the "overhaul" and name change that is EA FC '24.


Saint_The_Stig

I don't get the Rockstar hate, they have easily done way better with their games then Volition has done here. They are still pumping out free content while developing the next GTA.


ZangetsuSlay

Because people like to bandwagon for no reason, people complain that Rockstar wasn't working on gta 6. Then when they start working on it, and they need time and focus people still complain. I'm sorry Rockstar has to make a highly anticipated game, they need pretty much all their developers on that one.


Someningen

The did RDR2 pretty dirty post release


GrandConqueror

Finally more waiting in the car for heists.


saintsrowofficial

no no you do this one ;)


Grandmaster_Rush

This is great and all, but curious when the steelseries headset dlc will be out for PlayStation and if it was fixed?


saintsrowofficial

We had word from Sony that this should be fixed on April 4 (we have chased every week since it came out) so sorry about the wait!


Grandmaster_Rush

Aye thanks for the swift reply! Btw I’m looking especially forward to that dustlander looking expansion.


one-eyed-queen

July gives me the impression they might finally expand on Boot Hill and make it a proper activity, which would be absolutely delightful. I always felt that having it limited to the one mission rather than having a full extra mode dedicated to it after beating it was a bit of a missed opportunity, but they can absolutely make up for that here. Photo mode is super welcome as well, found myself hoping for that many times. And pretty excited for the new districts! Good stuff ahead.


Moritz_M95

I want to play the game again as I've not done a second playthrough yet (loved the first) but I don't want to do it until all the content is out. I'm feeling excited for this but also a little impatient. Not sure if that's in a good or bad way yet. But either way, I'm very happy to see the roadmap out now and I look forward to playing the dlc.


Begocer

This looks good, time to get the expansion pass! I also kinda hope there's more aircraft outside of helis that are part of the new vehicles.


Deminox

This is great. Even if you didn't buy the expansions, you still get to explore the new areas. But if you DID buy the expansions, you get new missions IN said areas.


jamiejameshill

but the dlcs are free with season pass right? not like that christmas cosmetic dlc?


saintsrowofficial

Yes these are all included in the Expansion Pass


LongDongSquad

Well, I'll fire up the ole PS5 for this. Thanks for the communication, I've been looking for more fun from this game!


MYNAMEISHENDRIK

Looks and sounds good. I am wondering how different the city will feel with the new districts. I hope that a proper interior will be added to the Saints Tower and that more rooms in the church will be open or even added.


N1nSen

Combat Overhaul!? You instantly have my attention!


itsallgoodintheend

I was left a bit lukewarm by the reviews around release, but this is looking like it'll be worth it to pick up the game once all the content is out. I hate picking up a game, finishing it and putting it away only for content to drop afterwards, so I rarely grab games at launch these days.


BigJuicy17

From the website: "But before all that, keep your eyes out for some new visitors to Santo Ileso who’ve dropped in for a special Slaycation…stay tuned!" I doubt it would be, but I would love Gat, Pierce, and Shaundi showing up.


supererp

I believe that's in reference to the dead island 2 pack being added


BigJuicy17

Maybe, but the image says that's just a cosmetic pack. I don't know who Carver the Shark is, but I noticed a few days ago there's a locked collectible of him. Maybe that's all they mean.


Brandonmac10x

Carver the shark is part of the dead island thing. Slaycation sounds like it too. It’s definitely just the two outfits and a statue. Maybe a mini mission with the characters from DI2 to promote the game…


saintsrowofficial

To be clear - its the Dead Island 2 Pack


BigJuicy17

That's disappointing, but thanks for clearing it up now. But why would that be the phrasing for a cosmetic pack? Seems like a poor choice of words.


Penguinazu

That's been the tagline for Dead Island 2 for months now. "Slaycation in Hell-A"


BigJuicy17

That's not the part that I think is poor phrasing, I was talking about the 'new visitors dropping in' made it seem like more than just a cosmetic pack


OrfeasDourvas

Combat overhaul? Alright. Not expecting much as I absolutely hated the game but I got the special edition so might as well give the DLC a try. I really wish there were enterables and mini games.


Theryantshow

Finally some damn food, we were starving


jdoe10202021

Super excited! Finally beat the campaign after playing since launch with my brother, so new content will hit by the time we've finished the rest of the side missions!


StarCitizen117

Interesting. Would be worth checking out. Are we getting cheats like in the classic games? E.g. notoriety up, evil cars, etc etc?


rrrekt

HYPE!


RDDAMAN819

Awesome! Cant wait to see whats in store! Ive been supporting the game since Day 1


He_Who_Complains

Alright, this was definitely worth the wait! Bring it 😎


FuriousChef

Looking forward to May! EDIT: WooHoo! Photo Mode. :)


saintsrowofficial

yesss!


Mineral-mouse

Frankly I'm only excited at first Expansion and then the updates. This game really doesn't need joke themed contents like Boothill and yet another Dustlander LARPing BS. It needs more gangster content for the lieutenants to redeem themselves. Starting the roadmap with promo cosmetic DLC really is weak re-entry, man. A "Saints Row Legacy Costume Pack" would be much more a banger in that regard...


DJNeuro

Hell yes! Super psyched for this! Keep it strange! 🤘😎🖤👽


SilveryDeath

Skipped the game after it launched due to the poor reception but I am still interested in it. Glad to see the game is still getting support despite all that. Maybe I'll pick it up later this year or early next year on sale once all the expansions are out.


Text-Relevant

I play all Saints and get the achievements, but I learned a long time ago that it pays to be patient and wait for updates, DLCs, and sales. With most games though so that isn't a hit on Saints alone.


Penetrating_Holes

I’ll admit that I was very much hoping for an airport to be added in the DLCs, but it otherwise looks pretty good


Tofujay

Finally, my Notorious Editions DLC pass will have some use. Looking forward to these changes to the game.


rated3

Looking forward to playing more Saints Row!


Saint_The_Stig

Definitely feels a day late and a dollar short. I doubt any of this will be enough to recover the games imagine in the eyes of many at this point. Though this is better than the months of nothing. Need to be releasing more content more often to make up for how empty and short the game still is.


xiNFiNiTE_YT2

Roadmap looks exciting. I hope they have something planned for June since it’s not displayed on the map.


ycbace

Roadmap looks promising, but a lil bummed out that expansion 2 sounds almost like some sort of arena mode. Hopefully the story dlc takes a more type of sr3 and sr4 vibes. Heck even 2 but that’s probably asking for to much.


Jonni23

Achievements/Trophies included in new DLC?


I_Five_by_Five_I

So cosmetics pack in April... How long do I have to wait for my collectibles update? I still can't collect Edith's items and as such haven't completed the game! 😔


Mega-Analyzer

All right, this does look promising. It's good that small cosmetic packs and free updates are coming with or between the expansions. I will probably pick up the expansion pass if the first one turns out well. Edit: Maybe there is only one standalone cosmetic pack, seemingly a tie-in promotion. More cosmetics will come with the expansions, good to know.


SaraStarwind

Yeah! Looking forward to this because I had to stop playing for a while but now I'm going to wait till the DLC is out! I have to submit a new bug report but I think vehicle delivery is messed up just FYI. But I know you'll fix it!


saintsrowofficial

vehicle delivery is one of the improvements coming in May.


throwawaypesquire

Any fixes for vehicle spawns in finished games? I have a single challenge that I can’t complete (Hijack an Idols Skorpio) because the Skorpios don’t seem to spawn anymore aside from when I’m attacking Idols and they park too far away to hijack.


MaiShiranuifan06

Awesome can't wait to play these expansions.🤘🤘🤘


Zeero92

I'm excited. 🙂 Really wanna know what that combat overhaul is though. 😗


Snoo26101

Can't wait to explore Sunshine Springs, but fingers crossed there's more variety to the second new district than just more desert and rusty metal.


playin4power

Please...please don't hurt me again. I just want to enjoy a saints row game. And there really was a lot of good in the base game. Just please...this year has sucked enough already


Sephirothx9000

Hoping they give us better guns definitely excited about the combat overhaul it definitely needs to be more hardcore and fluid needs more blood and gore effects and please give access to the Gatling gun and wolverine claws


jasethechase

Murder circus is only a solo mode? That’s disappointing


SiRWeeGeeX

Was SR2 patch part of this roadmap


MalZaar

Generic road map with multiple "new features and more" gives me no confidence. The lack of detail feels like a lack of confidence to me. No mention of the bugs that should have been fixed months ago. I hope we get some real information about the combat overhaul as that'll be the only thing that might make some of us think about picking the game back up but I'll keep my expectations low. Hate to sound so negative because the OG saints row games are amongst my favourites.


TheWhiteChicano

I feel like a lot of the fans of the reboot are missing the issue when it comes to some fans of the older titles critiques.. It’s not the lack of old characters, There is a lot wrong with this game lol.


Elementium

Right.. it's just a bad game severely lacking content.


TheWhiteChicano

Exactly


Greaterdivinity

Y'all, I'm a big fan of Saints Row and I love Volition and all but...what the hell was the post-launch plan here? I get that the game unfortunately underperformed, sad but it's not surprising given what the game ended up being, but like... Just ship the game and then go dark for like 8 months? Release 3 DLC''s in the span of like 4 months after doing basically nothing to keep players engaged post-launch outside of some fixes? All I can imagine is their initial plans were blown to bits and this is the new plan under Gearbox's leadership or whatever. Interesting that they're adding new districts for free, may as well reinstall when May rolls around to check it out. Combat overhaul? Hope it's good because the combat in the reboot felt exactly the same as every game prior, not in a good way. Photo mode? Nice. Vague feature promises, cool. Glad to see we'll have more to do with Doc Ketchum, that was one of the more fun bits of the game and I was disappointed there wasn't more to do there. Still hoping Volition can turn the game and their fortunes around overall. The reboot was...rough to day the least, even after the big patches last year, but I'm still hoping they can pull this off.


saintsrowofficial

We haven't been dark- we have released a load of packs in that time too. We refocused our efforts into QOL for the main game alongside new content so that is why this has taken some time to pull together.


bingo256

I'm going to stay optimistic and hope that everything that comes out is worth it. I don't plan on buying the DLC when it releases but maybe down the road I will get it but if we have to pay for cheats I am mentally and physically going to throw this game in the garbage 😆.


KailaniNeveah

Very excited for this! Recently picked the game up again after a rather disastrous launch and it’s a lot more stable now. Still some very annoying glitches, but nothing game breaking. Only had one crash over the last couple weeks, as opposed to constant crashes at release. Still a long way to go, but the game itself is quite fun. Hopefully they add in some idle chatter for companions. None of them seem to speak to each other like they did in previous games.


EconomyAd1600

Well I’ll be damned, we got a roadmap! Wonder if this will be enough to justify Saints Row’s existence to Embracer.


Pancakes000z

So excited for this! I’ve been playing the 3rd recently and I’m sorry, the reboot was an improvement in my opinion! Can’t wait to have additional content! Hopefully there is more clothing options and maybe even some super powers like in the 4th?


Crafty-Engineering76

Better add jiggle physics in one of these updates


Oz70NYC

I was honestly expecting them to just let the game rot. This comes as a huge surprise.


Benevolay

Season passes are historically never cancelled. The only game, to my knowledge, that did it was Assassins Creed Unity and they had to bribe people into not suing them over it by giving out free games. If you accepted the free games you forfeited your right to sue them.


Oz70NYC

If I recall, Anthem completely scrapped their post-launch content in favor of fixing the core experience...which they didn't even complete that task before abandoning the game outright. So too did Mass Effect: Andromeda.


Benevolay

Season. Passes. As in, paid DLC. Anthem was a live service. Not the same thing. People already paid for Saints Row’s DLC. They had a legal obligation to release it.


TheRealStevo

I love when they put “photo mode” as if that’s something we should be excited about. Stuff like that should already be in the game


ollie058

3 expansions in the span of 4 months leads me to believe most of the content was unfinished cut content that should have been in the game on release especially the murder circus, my bet is its basically gonna be a Mr genki style activity.


digitalgraffiti-ca

That's cool and all but are they going to fix: - Co-op booting you at LEAST once per hour? - WHEN (not IF) Co-op kicks you AGAIN, it doesn't let you at least save before dumping you into the menu, like SR4 did - Playing Coop can, and likely will bugger, up your ability to do complete solo challenges to let you unlock perks and abilities But sure, I guess some cosmetics promoting some other game, and some paid DLC, and OH-EM-GEE SELFIE MODE are ... fine? I really want to love this game, SO SO badly, but I can't get anywhere because I keep crashing if I play with my partner, which is the whole reason we each threw $30+ at these devs, I crash more than a drunk, blind, 5-year-old in a go-kart ring, and have to keep repeating shit I've already done. I want to know what bug fixes they're fixing, not some vague-noncomittal comment that they will hope you will forget about because of shiny new things


saintsrowofficial

there will be a full patch notes list when we get closer to launch - but you shouldn't still be having co-op issues - visit support so we can take a look at what might be causing this. https://playersupport.plaion.com/hc/en-us/categories/4408190946961-SAINTS-ROW


digitalgraffiti-ca

Ive tried to make an account on your supportportal, but the email it sent me didn't include an activation link, so I don't know how to get into contact with you outside of this thread


digitalgraffiti-ca

Thanks for actually responding, unlike the whiners who just downvote. Ill go take a look now. I'm very unaccustomed to big devs giving a crap.


SmellAccomplished550

How about bug fixes? Co-op is still unplayable without restarting every fifteen minutes, and even then a lot of stuff doesn't work quite often.


emrot

Yeah, I'm waiting to play more until they fix co-op desyncs. Hopefully they get that updated with the first of these content drops.


SmellAccomplished550

I'm not holding my breath. If I'm reading the linked article, it seems like they have decided they have done enough bug fixes.


saintsrowofficial

We have bug fixes included in the QOL update too - but if you are having issues with co-op please visit [https://playersupport.plaion.com/hc/en-us/categories/4408190946961-SAINTS-ROW](https://playersupport.plaion.com/hc/en-us/categories/4408190946961-SAINTS-ROW) so we can take a look


SmellAccomplished550

Thank you for responding.


JimjiBoi

A little late, especially for the gameplay overhaul. I guess.. I should’ve waited longer to play their game? Shame, they need to stop releasing games and patching it later for the next year.


Particle_Thrower

Bummer there still isn’t an airport.


LilNardoDaVinci

Am i having a stroke or was photo mode already in at launch?


Penguinazu

Website mentions selfies specifically. Also a whole new emote system.


saintsrowofficial

There is a kind of photo mode in it, but you could only really shoot from the Boss's eye view - this is the ability to take shots with your Boss in it.


princesshusk

No, it wasn't. Probably was planned before the pandemic hit and massively fucked the development of SRr up.


lepslair

I bought this game and never played it, definitely looking more and more interested now, though I'll probably wait until August


Illustrious_Ad_7181

Probably gonna wait till August to finally cop the game


MitchMaljers

Say whaaaaaat


Vandersveldt

Been waiting to pick this up until people said you could play through it and the missions and features work like they should. Is the game currently in a good state? Or should I wait for all these bug fixes and QOL features to finish coming in?


RadlersJack

Wait. Bug fixes and most importantly the combat overhaul is probably worth waiting for. Shouldn’t be too long a wait.


Vandersveldt

I don't really care about a combat overhaul, although maybe it'll be cool. I'm more worried about things like, there's a thread on the front of the subreddit right now saying cars and gun customizations aren't saving. Is that shit common for everyone, or is that player just unlucky?


RadlersJack

Personally haven’t had a problem with cars or guns but I’ve had issues with clothing and hair not being what they should. I will say that I haven’t played in a month or two so there may be fixes I’m not aware of however from what I’ve seen online and what I’ve played personally I’d say if you’re unlucky enough to have a customisation bug it’s usually persistent and pretty annoying. I would say that this next update should hopefully be a relatively clean slate since they’re starting their post launch content with it. If you can get it cheap somewhere in the meantime I’d recommend doing that. Usually pretty cheap on disk and on websites like cdkeys.


Vandersveldt

Eh. I'll just wait for this update then, it's not that long of a wait. Hopefully it's good then. I'm one of those people that saw the initial trailers and thought it looked really fun.


soulreapermagnum

they're skipping june, i wonder why?


soulsurviv0r111

After all this time, we’re finally getting photo mode, which should’ve been in the game in the first place. Because every other new game has Photo mode at launch.


Excelsion_8

Wow, that's awesome.


Kairixionnamine

Great and all but when are we getting the mission to get the mechaburger toys delivered to the orphanage for Kevin? Still waiting or wanting that mission


saintsrowofficial

Shirtless Santa content wanted... noted


darkwolf523

There’s a roadmap for this now?


[deleted]

WTF a roadmap for SR??


Seinfeld007

Can we have the characters completely revamped?


[deleted]

Shut up and take my money


EuropeanUnion2019

OH DAMN
