So I don't spoil it for anyone, I won't use any names or what the mission is about. Anyways, after killing a couple of people and killing a driver, I took his car and drove off. After I got to where I wanted to go I stopped and got out of the car, and then I noticed that a dead guy was sitting in the front seat beside me. I take him out of the car and Niko says "get out of the car!" :lol: |

Question about That Special Someone
Spoiler:

About those cabs again - make sure you not only whistle, but also get the popup message to press the button to enter as a passenger. That way you know the game has done whatever it does to allow you to get a ride rather than take it. Also, I've noticed that cabs with passengers won't stop when I whistle, so look for an empty cab.

Niko and Vlad guest star on SNL:

Quick question; I'm about 34% done and I'm on my 10th try for the "Paper trail" mission. I have to follow this other helicopter in the city and I always get a "failed mission" (you lost the target) within 10 seconds :grunt: I usually did good with the other helicopter missions but no timer or chase was involved. I press the right trigger to get some elevation and tilt the left stick forward but I always nose-dive in the process and have to press right trigger again to get higher. Is there a way to keep the same altitude AND go forward? Thanks :) Darkfriend, the dumbest helicopter driver evar. |

BTW, the game rewards the hell out of you for getting your friendship high with everyone and also doing the online dating with Carmen and Kiki (Alex's reward is crap BTW). You can use these perks, especially Dwayne, to make some of the later missions a bit easier to deal with. So the dating and hanging out is very important when you get to the last third or so of the game. I'm still playing it. I finished all the Assassin missions and have to be close to finishing the cars for Steve. Still have to do some drug deals for LJ, the cop car stuff and of course find all the jumps and pigeons. I may even try the races at some point to get 100% and I'm still driving around trying to find all the random encounter missions. My final opinion is the game still has a few buggy issues, minor graphical issues and control problems to keep it from being a perfect 10, but it is damn close. I found it getting closer to that 10 score the more I played it. Rockstar nailed the pacing, nailed the story and all the dialog and humor in the game and the gameplay is better than all the previous versions. I loved the new combat, and felt they packed the world with things to do and enjoy. I still feel the driving needs work for future games and the AI in the game is still pretty stupid when not being scripted. Considering how ambitious this game is though I really can't complain much. I have loved their games since GTA III and this one stands above all the previous ones. The only place my previous favorite Vice City competes is soundtrack. Outside of the Jazz station this game has the worst music of any version but GTA III. I really hope custom soundtracks get added at some point. |
Finally finished the game at 77%, not sure what else I have to do besides the stunt jumps and all those damn pigeons. I've hunted down all the most wanted with the cop cars, I'm giving it to all the girls you can, done all the races as far as I can tell.
This is a fun GTA, but overall I don't think it's a perfect game. Some things are more polished now for sure, I like being able to take taxis everywhere, I enjoyed the story more than San Andreas, the combat controls are greatly improved, and the cop car missions are a lot more fun. Hell all the little touches like the computer in the cop cars, the internet system, the phone system...the game is pretty deep and involved. And the graphics are a HUGE improvement, including the way the characters contort when you plow into them with your car (too pleasurable). But some of the same annoying crap is still there - like having to start missions over sometimes driving forever to get back to what you were doing, and even hunting down weapons again before you do it. Dumb and frustrating. And is it just me, or did they completely ruin the bikes in this game? I think the cars handle great, at least the better cars handle great making it an incentive to search those out, but riding motorcycles was one of my favorite things in the previous GTAs, and I've barely touched any this time. Maybe I just need more practice with them. And the last mission: Spoiler:
But still, I couldn't wait to get back to the game usually, and I'll still putz around in it. I'm kinda glad the story is done actually, I don't know how much more of Niko's whining I can take lol. I'd put this second behind Vice City as my favorite GTA. |

So, on craplist on the seeking section, are they accurate or just an interesting read. If someone says they are going to be a certain location at a certain time, are they really there?

I have a date with 'liberated woman' in a couple of GTA days. So we'll see about that. Time seems to fly by super quick in game. I kept checking my cellphone to keep track of time and thought I had more than enough time to get to Kiki. When I started a mission at 5am, little did I know it would soon be well past my meet time of 12 noon with Kiki. |

Pretty much at this point just going on rampages, but my huge bank account is dwindling away with as many times as I've died (or commited suicide). Once it's gone I guess I'll have to resort to cheat codes. |

The problem for me is going to be the races since I hate driving and finding those damn pigeons. I may have to break down and use my laptop with an online map and slowly go through and find them all. They are really well hidden. |

Is the infamous lollipop chick in the game somewhere? I'm done and never saw her.

When can I start hanging out with Dwayne? I chose him over Playboy, but since picked I haven't been able to get a hold of him. Every time I call it just goes to voice mail and doesn't give me options to hang out with him like Roman or Brucie. And does Kate ever put out? |
