Does anyone know if re-elected does anything about the performance issues on PC?
All performance and crashing issues are resolved with the re-elected version.
What a joke its like this should be a patch for the base game but no goy shill out your shekels for the we really finished the game this time dlc
Holy fuck this I wont understand why game studios guard decades old source code for games they abandon then sue the fuck out of anyone that actually wants to try and fix it and god forbid have fun (looking at you EA)
The game is not uwp on ms store. All uwp games us flip model to allow for borderless fullscreen to work properly(You should really only be using borderless fullscreen instead if fullscreen for dx11 and dx12),sr4 doesn't support borderless fullscreen therefore it's not uwp. performance is much better. I get dips to the mid 60s on og sr4 while the lowest i have ever gotten on sr4-relected was 115 on a rtx 3090 and 5700x. The improved performance and reduced crashing is due to the game being 64 bit unlike og sr4 which was 32 bit. This is also free for all owners of the game.
Offtopic, but can you elaborate on that? First time I read something along those lines
Borderless windowed mode gives you the performance of fullscreen mode and the convenience of windowed mode. Most newer dx11 games support it and all dx12 games use it."fullscreen" in dx12 is a lie, it is borderless fullscreen. Not all dx11 games support it but you can force it using third-party software. There is zero reason to use fullscreen over borderless windowed mode for 99% of scenarios. DX9 games have no support for borderless windowed mode.
Thing is, I used to have noticeable performance issues running games in borderless fullscreen (or any kind of windowed) rather than regular fullscreen, so nowadays I don't even bother giving borderless fullscreen a try if regular fullscreen isn't an option.
Old saves still work,at least for me. Workshop mods work fine from what i've played. Now i would say that it's an improvement if it didn't make my cpu usage go to 100% on a 5700x. The game is causing "service host communication access" to use all your cpu. You can check by playing the game and using task manager. Thank you volition.
Might be a long shot, but add the following to your hosts file:
127.0.0.1 sr4.hydra.agoragames.com
Lol of course Volition would fuck this up.
Didn't fix the issues that i'm having. the re-elected version is unplayable for me on steam. The game works fine for me on the ms store.
It was fun but it wasn't Saints Row. Basically if Volition released Saints Row 4 but with the Agents of Mayhem branding it would fit perfectly. It's not Saints Row but it is a good superhero game.
That should be a thing of the past. True fullscreen was Fullscreen Exclusive Mode which suspended/paged out everything graphical other than the DX fullscreen window for better performance(all GPU and VRAM resources went towards the game, it also freed up some RAM iirc). And I rarely play games and probably haven't messed around with it, but I'm pretty sure that unlike exclusive mode borderless doesn't change the resolution of the screen, only the resolution of the window that fills up the screen.
because they paid for it in the past (or the company they bought did), so it's "theirs". the people in charge of that also usually have zero fucking clue what that even means.
