that girlfriend keeps calling me and bitching about how I never hang out. so last night i picked her up, then drove down to the pier and launched the car off the end of the pier with her in it. somehow she still rolled out and popped back up on the pier. so I shot her point blank in the face with the shotgun...and it just says 'your date is over' and she ran away. I shot her a bunch more but she kept running.

sucks you can't kill her.

Yeah i figured that and now i keep trying to kill them on one pass shots. Still need more practice though.

Once you get kicked out of Los Santos that area is kinda dead for now. You will eventually return though.

I was able to start taking over other territories the 2nd day I was playing the game...so its pretty early. I think you have to finish a couple of the OG missions.


I don't have any missions anymore...all of a sudden there are none on the map except another lowrider competition. What the hell happened? Do I have to take over every gang territory first or something? I played 3 hours last night and no new missions came up...

You don't need to take over all of the map to advance. I only took over that one section where the first gang war took place at and i still advanced out to the badlands. Don't forget some missions are only available at night between like 8pm-6am.

If so you need to complete all of his missions.

yeah its the OG missions, after house party.

MIGHT be the first CRASH mission.


but most people follow the SWEET > RYDER > SMOKE > OG path I think.

even thou you CAN skip most of sweet and all of ryder to get through OG Loc.

still, i like to be thorough. i dont like skipping shit

... get an AK47... race ahead of the train. jump off your bike. shoot the mexicans as the train comes towards you.

if you do this quick... as in before the train hits the car in the middle of the tracks... youll have plenty of time to kill all the mexicans in the first try.

the train slows down a good bit when it hits the car.


the closest AK-47 is in one of the buildings at Ocean Docks... right near Union Station.


the key really is just to kill them yourself. smoke sucks and cant shoot for shit. useless.

is that the one where you chase down those 4 dudes who stand on the train? if thats it... don't get too close to the train. if you get right next to it the bullets just hit the side of the train and you can't hit the guys.



edit: soopas idea sounds much easier.

if you fly or swim to las venturas and quickly get in a car or something, its very easy to explore the entire city even with cops on your tail, it seems in this game, 4 stars of wanted level doesnt really make them that aggressive, i drove around las venturas with cops after me and 4 stars for like 15 minutes, saw the entire place...then jumped back in the water and headed back to los santos and my wanted level went down to 3 and then i just grabbed a car in los santos and went to the paint and spray, end of wanted level.....ive yet to see anything more than 4 stars, the cops are pussies in this game....alot easier to deal with than GTA 3 and Vice City...

I've used the cheat codes to get my wanted level to 6 stars. They stuck the FBI, Swat, and a shitload of tanks on my ass.
