have you guys seen the jetpack yet??? you get it somehow in that "area 51"-esque spot in las venturas....ive seen screen shots of CJ in the air with this jet pack contraption on his back and hes targeting people on the ground with a gun....cant wait to get that!

 

 

Does anyone know if the wanted levels clear if you go to the paint & spray in Las Venturas?

 

If you even get near Area 51, you automatically get 4 stars for your wanted level.

 

the paint and sprays are not open for business until you rightfully unlock the city

 

I guess that would have been too easy.

 

how do you recruit members? the game just told me i'm capable of having a three person gang or something... how do you get them to follow u?

 

target with r1, press up on digital pad.

 

i found that out the hard way. I was flying around and all of a sudden it was like RESTRICTED AIRSPACE

 

strategy guide isnt cheating. for types like you and i... its great to have.

it just explains shit in detail so you dont miss anything. i would not be able to play GTA without it. i hate missing shit.

but it doesnt tell you how to cheat/exploit anything

 

:readthreadb4askingquestions:

 

:lazy: didnt wanna read all 14 pages

 

Does it really show you a lot of stuff you would have missed otherwise?

I didn't get it, but may pick it up tomorrow. I just don't want to find out I missed something and I can't go back and do it know.

 

I would think the player's guide would help most in identifying extra hidden items on the map. (i.e., weapons, health, police bribes, etc). I had the guide for Vice City and it helped a little. It described each mission a little more detailed than you get just by playing the game.

 

what is the trick for the fork lift mission?

 

I definetly think its worth it - The thing has almost 300 PAGES!!!!!


And like Soopa said I don't like missing things in GTA so I find it helpful

 

Get the boxes outside the warehouse first.

Stop picking up boxes by around the 4th one to kill some of the douches shooting at you. Then continue with the fork lift.

 

mrsteve

thanks

 

You need to periodically get outta the forklift and help kill the guards, so whoever you are with (i forget whose mission it is) wont die, you'll have plenty of time so just make sure he doesnt die


*EDIT* Mrsteve beat me to the punch

 

no problem... lemmie know if you need anything else...

This thread > *

 

it seems like the majority of a-cl is hooked on this game.

 

This game is great

 

I only had like ten seconds left........maybe I just suck

 

oh really. I thought strategy guides had codes and shit in them. I've never looked at one before.

maybe I'll pick it up...

 

Nah, everyone seems to be better at some missions then others - I know ones that ive struggled on were easier for others and vice versa



but i still love this game

 

THe only mission I really had trouble with was the very first one, outrunning the Ballas on a bike. I would always get caught right before home, on that fucking hill to get off the freeway. It took me like 15 tries, I was SO pissed at the game then, I thought it was going to totally suck. But then I got over it and I'm in love all over again.

 

teh BMX bike > *

 

i love riding the skatepark.

 

I'm always on the BMX bike. My skillz are at like 85%

 

the bootleg ones do.

the official strategy guides are written by the developers and help you play the game in the flow that they intended.

rather than scatter brained

 

it doesnt help so much in missions as it does with all the Odd Jobs etc.

but it helps you keep things in order and play things in the right order... which can help you tons in the efficiency department.

nothing worse then gettign in a mission which your not ready for

 

I just did something cool. I snuck into the airport, and spawned a hotring racer. You can get up to an insane speed on the runway, then launch yourself off the ramps for stunt points. For my last one, I started at the end of the runway, sped up, aimed, and launced myself over the fence, over the highway, straight into the ocean. Fuckin awesome.

 

Has anyone tried the demo derby missions in san fiero. I did the first one with ease, but the 2nd one is fucking impssible. THe cars all come after you. I must have tried it at least 20 times with no luck. I screamed and put the controller down.

 

Man, you're supposed to chuck the controller at the wall when that happens, not set it down

 

That's me on the RC Plane mission.

 

I already put a huge dent in the wall by throwing my mouse at it in a fit of rage a while back.

 

I am at that mission now but I only tried it once and failed miserably

 

yo, im to the point where i NEED to get in good with this broad to get new missions.... this is gonna take some time

 

Ive seen the game played for about 4 hrs at my friends house. I'll I have to say is you guys are sooo lucky that you are getting to play it. Im a freshman at KU and 1.) i never would have time to play it, and 2.) if i did get it and play it, I'd play it alllll the damn time and fail outta college. I think im gonna have to wait to get it for X-mas and play it for a whole month then.


Just a thought: I was watching and seeing how the whole game is interactive, the clothes, food, working out.....I got to thinking... What if you could go to a bar and drink, and then when you drove, the screen got all blury and you could get pulled over for DUI or somethin....

lol...that would be pretty cool....but just a thought...

 

I just did some cool shit. I went to the airport, and stole the Lear jet. I flew into Las Venturas, and saw all the sights, like the Mirage and the Pyramid. I wasnt paying attention, and i killed myself by flying into a hotel. Then I went and stole it again, and wound up who knows where. Either way, I got shot out of the sky by some fighter jets, but I jumped out of the plane before it crashed, and fell like 10000 feet into the water. I swam to land and jacked a helicopter, but everyone was after me. So i ditched that, cheated, and got a Rhino. Even with the rhino, no chance. The Feds brought out a truck that just picked up the rhino, and I was done. Now i gotta get all these missions done so i can actually do this stuff for real.
