#2 - Hail To The Chief | Walkthrough Saints Row IV Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
First, you can choose your character's appearance. There are 7 default appearances at the beginning, but later you'll be able to change it in an advanced menu. Character appearance is only a cosmetic issue which doesn't have any effect on the gameplay.
Once you're done, press Start Game to proceed to the next mission.
After the cutscene, go down the hallway. On the way, three NPCs will approach you, asking you to make a decision.
Making a decision does not affect the gameplay!
- First, you'll need to decide which project to fund: curing cancer or feeding the hungry
- The second person won't like the way you govern the country, so you have two options: punch him in the "private parts" or straight in the face
- The third person is a character from Saints Row: The Third who invites you to a party after the speech. You can either accept or decline.
Afterwards, follow the star until you trigger a cutscene. At this point, the alien invasion takes place, and their first target is the White House - in which you are currently residing.
Once the cutscene ends, press Space to get back on your feet. You'll have a pistol in your hand, but to fight the aliens back, you're going to need a bigger caliber weapon. Shooting the enemies, follow the star until you reach the president's office.
Once there, there will be a short cutscene showing you opening lockers with various types of weapons. Pick any you like. When you're ready, follow the star again and keep eliminating enemies. If you encounter a cluster of them, use the rocket launcher to dispatch them quicker.
Keep going forward until you find a way outside. You'll mount a special cannon to use against invading spaceships. Hold LMB (left mouse button) to attack. In a while, a larger ship with a larger health bar will appear. Shoot it until another cutscene triggers.
Afterwards, you'll find yourself inside the alien spaceship, together with Zinyak. After a short exchange of fists and words, a QTE sequence will start. Follow the prompts to steer the mission towards the end.
