The games of the Saints Row series are a real gift for the gamer, as they are incredible combinations of action, shooter, trash, sandbox, racing simulator and everything you can imagine. Moreover, each game was made surprisingly excellent, and the third and fourth parts in general became one of the best projects in the history of gaming.
At first glance, many of these games may resemble GTA, but in reality the projects differ quite a lot from each other, and in the fourth part this is felt even more. Attention should at least be paid to the fact that in the case of Saints Row, the plot and semantic content of the game is given much more time than in the third and fourth parts of GTA.
However, the most important and impressive difference is the game on the network, which has become available to absolutely everyone thanks to the Coop Land project. Saints Row 4 is a one-person game. The fact is that the plot revolves around your main character, who is the leader of your gang of Saints. In the third part, you moved to the top of the government and then gained influence in the city, and now you become the president of the United States of America, as the previous president was unable to repel the alien attack. And you have to fight them and free the Earth from invaders.
But you can do this together, because two presidents are always better than one. Owners of the licensed version of the game will be able to do this without any problems, but the owners of the pirate can thank Coop Land: Saints Row 4 has become available for everyone to share. And in this article you will learn how to achieve the desired result.
Licensed version
Naturally, you should start with the situation when you do not need the help of Coop Land. Saints Row 4 is a game in which sharing is available by default, so if you have a licensed version of the game, then you have nothing to worry about. All you have to do is launch the game and start passing it. And your friend who wants to help you, simply joins you at any convenient time. Unfortunately, the same cannot be done if you have a pirated version of the game, since you will not have a Steam server, so your friend will have nowhere to connect. How to fix this? For this you will need Coop Land. Saints Row 4 is a project that can always be downloaded from the Web without paying a cent, but losing functionality. However, this can be fixed, and now you will learn how exactly this can be done.
Fix Fix
So, it is assumed that you already have a pirated version of the game downloaded from the torrent on your computer. Then you can safely proceed to the instructions of Coop Lands Ru, thanks to which you can quickly and efficiently set up co-passage for this game. First of all, you need to choose one of the fixes, each of which will allow you to achieve approximately the same result, but in different ways.
The first fix is Steam-Fix, which will allow you to integrate the pirated version of the game with the Steam platform, which will give you the opportunity to play online with a friend.
The second fix is LAN-Fix, the purpose of which is also to create the ability for you to play with a friend over the network, but in this case the Steam platform will not be activated, and your own server will be created for joint passage.
Each of the fixes is installed identically: you need to download the program, and then install it in the game folder. When you do this, you can assume that your client is fully prepared for further configuration for a joint game. Both fixes are recommended by Coop Lands Ru, repeatedly tested by many gamers and are guaranteed to work. You can verify this yourself using this guide, and then choose the fix that suits you best.
Game launch
Next, the guide will tell you about the steps you need to take to play Saints Row 4 over the network using each of the fixes.
So, if you made the choice in favor of the LAN fix, then you will need additional software in which there is support for this game. For example, it could be the popular Tunngle network game program. If you want to play not on your own, but plan to play along with a friend, then you will need to launch the game through this program. To do this, you will need to find this game in the program, and then create a server so that other players can connect to it.
If your choice is Steam-fix, then everything will be much simpler, since you will need to launch the game through your Steam account. As you can see, to play Saints Row 4 over the network, you don’t need to put a lot of effort. However, you should still learn more about how to create your own server in the game, as well as how to connect to an already created server.
Game creation
If you want to initiate a joint game and create your own server in the game, then there are practically no differences in using two fixes. The only difference is that Steam Fix requires you to create an online server, and LAN Fix requires you to create a LAN server. Otherwise, the instructions remain exactly the same. You will need to configure the server of your own free will and wait for the partner to connect.
Game connection
As for those players who will connect to the already created server, they also will not have to work hard, because the process is extremely simple and straightforward for both fixes.
If you decide to play using Steam Fix, you will need to enter the joint campaign mode, and there select the “Online” mode, then wait for the invitation from your friend who created the server and begin the joint passage.
If your choice fell on LAN-fix, then the first mode remains the same - it is “Joint Campaign”, however in the next paragraph you need to choose a game on the local network, and not online. There you need to start the search for games, and you will see a list of active games in your network. Most likely, it will be one, but just in case, you can agree with a friend about how he will call your server and which one will put a password on him.
Characters
If you play Saints Row 4 with a friend, the characters you play may be different. The fact is that you create them yourself, therefore both appearance and their features will be unique. The characters you have to fight against will be exactly the same as in single player mode. In Saints Row 4, weapons are carried along with your character, so you can not worry about being in the game world without the ability to protect yourself.
Missions
In the game Saints Row 4 missions that you complete with friends, remain the same as in single player mode. Some games have separate tasks made specifically for the co-op mode, but there are no such tasks in this project.
