In perhaps the most difficult [[Missions in Saints Row 2|mission]] in the game, players must kill six executives aboard a yacht to the northeast of the [[Saint's Row]] District. If the player is playing a patched version of the game, the two [[Tornado]]s [[Tornado#Patch|have the ability to kill the player very quickly]] (in one hit when aboard the [[Shark]]) and there are absolutely no checkpoints throughout the entire mission. However, if the player is playing the game offline and hasn't updated their game at all, the Tornados will lack the ability to fire their missiles and the mission is generally quite easy.

Begin by heading to the [[Saints Row Mega Condo]] and jumping aboard the Shark on the dock. If the game isn't patched, drive to the yacht and a Tornado will arrive and follow the player, but will do nothing. If the game is patched, immediately disembark from the Shark after boarding it and wait for the message informing the player that an Ultor attack helicopter will soon arrive. Use the small roof overhead as cover and engage the Tornado on foot; heavy firepower should down it fairly quickly, allowing the player to get back on the Shark and drive to the yacht peacefully (the Tornado will not be replaced).

Another strategy, although more riskier, is to drive to the yacht and exit from the Shark every time the Tornado fires its missiles. The Protagonist will smash awkwardly into the water, but the lock-on of the missile will be broken and it should crash into the water, allowing the player to swim back to the Shark and drive off again. Players will need to repeat this risky strategy multiple times before they reach the yacht.

⚫
Once the player reaches the yacht, the five executives are all located inside the center of the yacht at various levels. The yacht's defenses consist of little more than a few Ultor security guards, but the game's framerate may drop notably during this section of the mission. The sixth and final executive will attempt to flee on another boat; head to the marker to board a [[Python]] speedboat and give chase. Another Tornado will now arrive and give chase to the player; ignore it and quickly focus all firepower on the enemy boat. Ideally, it should fall very quickly. Remember that, unfortunately, failure will result in the entire mission restarting from the beginning.

If a Tornado has been obtained previously, retrieving it from a garage before the mission and using it makes short work of the enemy Torandos and most enemies on the boat before needing to abandon it to kill the ones that remain on the interior.

Revision as of 15:25, 31 January 2020

"Salting the Earth...Again" is the penultimate mission in Saints Row 2.

Ultor execs enjoy surprise retirement party
— Stilwater Gazette newspaper headline

Overview

At the Saints Hideout, Playa receives a package from an unknown sender addressed to them. Inside is a newspaper clipping revealing Ultor's current fundraising gala aboard a yacht. Spotting an opportunity for revenge against Ultor's recent hostilities, Playa heads out to crash their party despite Pierce's best efforts to dissuade them, who advises on how it could be a trap and reminds Playa of their history aboard yachts, as the explosion aboard Richard Hughes' yacht[1] placed Playa into a five year coma.[2][3]

After reaching the yacht, Playa slays all of the executives partying aboard. Dane Vogel watches the carnage unfold from his office at the top of the Phillips Building. It becomes apparent that the executives aboard the yacht belonged to the Ultor board of directors, and Vogel sent Playa the package, manipulating them into killing the executives to further his own goals, and in retaliation for the threats made against him in the boardroom at the end of the previous mission.[4] Knowing that he now fully controls Ultor, Vogel asks his secretary Jaime to set up a press conference for him[5], initiating the events of the final mission.[6]

Story

Upon completion of the Mission, this description is available at Newspaper Clipboards.

Bodies of the Ultor Board of Directors littered the water this morning, as a corporate gala turned into a blood bath. This is the second time a massacre has occurred on the open water here in Stilwater...fortunately there were no explosions.

Gameplay

Salting the Earth..

The objective of this mission is to kill six executives aboard a yacht to the northeast of the Saint's Row District. In the patched version of the game, the two Tornados fire rockets, and there are absolutely no checkpoints throughout the entire mission. However, if the game has not been updated or patched at all, the Tornados lack the ability to fire their missiles and the mission is generally quite easy.

Grab a water craft and get to the yacht

Begin by heading to the Saints Row Mega Condo and jumping aboard the Shark on the dock.

Get to the yacht

If the game isn't patched, drive to the yacht and a Tornado arrives and follows, but does nothing. If the game is patched, immediately disembark from the Shark after boarding it and wait for the message that an Ultor attack helicopter soon arrives. Use the small roof overhead as cover and engage the Tornado on foot; heavy firepower should down it fairly quickly, then get back on the Shark and drive to the yacht peacefully (the Tornado is not replaced).

Another strategy, although more riskier, is to drive to the yacht and exit from the Shark every time the Tornado fires its missiles. Playa smashes awkwardly into the water, but the missile lock is lost and it should crash into the water. This strategy must be repeated multiple times before reaching the yacht.

If a Tornado has been obtained previously, retrieving it from a garage before the mission and using it makes short work of the enemy Torandos and most enemies on the boat before needing to abandon it to kill the ones that remain on the interior.

Kill the Ultor execs

After reaching the yacht, the five executives are all located inside the center of the yacht at various levels. The yacht's defenses consist of little more than a few Ultor security guards, but the game's framerate may drop notably during this section of the mission.

Get to the speedboat and chase down the last exec

The sixth and final executive attempts to flee on another boat; head to the marker to board a Python speedboat and give chase. Another Tornado arrives and give chase; ignore it and quickly focus all firepower on the enemy boat. Ideally, it should fall very quickly. Failure results in the entire mission restarting from the beginning.
