I did that bike mission in the park without any armor. it took me a few tries, but its not that hard if you use the duck and cover system.
|
I completed that mission in 3 tries I think. The first two times I crashed the bike and flipped out into the water and he got away. The 3rd time I took it slowly and got to the park. Then I ran to the other side of the park and took cover and a few of them chased after me so I took shots as them as they ran towards me. Then went back up and finished the others off.

wow, you guys are teh shznit. I've owned it since TUesday and I've only got to the first (bowling) date! Wait, actually I did the mission to help that dude pick up his shit from storage and all the fuzz rain down on you.
But I've ben working all week and this weekend my in-laws are staying over, and mo-inlaw sleeps in my TV room :cuss: I have some serious catching up to do. I might just "have to go into work" and spend six hours on it there in my office. Haven't even played multi yet. |
I been playing all morning and only 23 percent in now. 20 hours. Its just crazy how much enjoyment you can get out of this game. Most games are like 8 hours and its over and your 60 bucks are done. This game has so much shit you can do outside of the main storyline its a blast.

I just started working for Player X.
The construction site mission to kill the union bosses is a blast. Oddly enough, I'm a member of a union. (Teamsters, no less) I've always talked about how the only thing the union's done for me, is take $60 bucks a month out of my pay.... now I've had my revenge. :D |

I do enjoy stealing cars for Brucie, though. |
w00t!
I just crashed through the bridge and made it to the other island by jumping out of the car. It took me six tries, but I got a screen capture... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBGIQ7ZuuiU |
I'm stuck on the Snow Storm mission. Which I think would be properly titled The Shit Storm. I've played three times and and taking a break. The first couple times I tried to stay and fight but that didn't work out so well. Then I tried to haul ass and get out of there but the first car you get to is a slow ass truck. So I make it out on to the main road but the game is doing the thing where all the cars disappear when you have a high wanted level and the only car that's around is the one you're in. So I can't find anything faster to switch into. Meanwhile I'm getting rammed from every direction and eventually the truck breaks down and won't start. I try to make a run for it but don't make it ten feet before I'm gunned down. GTAV must have mission checkpoints. Some of these are so tedious it would really take the sting off the grind factor.

lets set up a CP deathmatch

anyone on having issue with VERY LONG load times? i mean just to start the game, this is fricken retarted!

Are you on a PS3? And is it the first time you've played? Because I heard the PS3 loads some stuff to the hard drive to reduce load times later... takes a while. (I'm playing on a 360) |

Game is just very fun. It didnt break records. Hell shatter records for nothing. |

I dealt with the lack of mid-mission checkpoints until the last mission of the game, which managed to get me to throw my controller, something I haven't done since the Playstation 1 era. Not MDK2, not Ninja Gaiden on Hard mode, not Call of Duty 4 on Veteran, not Earth Defense Force on Insanity, but GTA4.
Once more people beat the game, I'll tell the story, but it was as if the game was playing a sadistic joke on me. In 5 consecutive attempts, I died at the same spot, but in completely different ways. The first time I died and had to restart the entire mission, I was angry. By the 5th time? I spiked the controller into the ground, which sent the battery pack zipping into another room. I have to give it up to MS though, because it still works perfectly despite it sounding like a child's rattle when you shake it. |

I wish Niko could just hang out with Little Jacob and Badman and build up a nice life together instead of dicking around with eastern Europeans. Those rasta dudes are ****ing awesome. Much respek fo dem righteous youths, seen, me breda?

I've pretty much burnt myself out for the weekend. Been having a blast, though.
Liberty City's version of Times Square is awesome. I kept running into things because I was gawking. |

This deconstruction of beginners is impossible. I keep getting my ass kicked. I think I could complete it with body armor. The first time I tried it, I bought some off of Lil Jacob but I was stupid and didn't go up on the roof to snipe anybody and now he won't sell me anymore.

I wish instead of the completely scripted missions they would have just given the bad guys some good AI to allow them to take different paths to their objectives. One time they would run, another they would stay and fight. I especially hate when you're chasing someone (which is usually what every mission comes down to), and the same cars crash and take the same turns every time, right in front of you while the AI car breezes away unscathed. Unpredictability is what makes games like this fun but there isn't much in the missions. It's really stupid when you have to get to a certain point before your bullets can even to damage to a car. I hoped they would have progressed past this.

I was playing on a friend's game and moltov'd a hospital waiting room... I felt pretty bad about it.

I finished that one on the second try. The one that's got me stuck is the race with Brucie. |

It helps to get creative. In the street sweeper mission... the first time, a couple gansters took off in a car while I fought their buddies... and I failed. Before trying again, I used a couple of cars to block in the getaway car before I started. That made it a breeze. No chasing... fish in a barrel. |
Just three more days til summer vacation and I'll be playing this non-stop.
|
How much does a sniper rifle cost, or can Little Jacob give you one? I've got three flying rats that I need to sniper, and then I've got them all for the first area.

It's much more deep than the previous games. Niko has a conscience... and it's wearing on him. |

And, the first weapon shop has body armor. As you enter the shop, take a left, then a right, and it's right there to your right on the center table. I've found two weapon shops, and they're exactly the same. |

Yeah, I've gotten pretty far already. About 10% I think. I've killed Vlad, and have done a mission for the Faustio? guy. Okay, here's another question: I'm trying to find Brian (the side character), the second time. They say he's sort of by the safehome and Comrade's Bar, but I can't find him at all. Any idea? |

Who just has to get 100% and who just has fun doing whatever, not really caring?
Me - I have to get 100%. |
Also, I have to kill all the flying rats and do the unique jumps and all the other stuff before finally winning the story mode.

That's when I'll get into the multiplayer, too. |

Man this game needs a feature that lets you record and share video. Earlier today I went up behind a cop and shot him in the head, then ran into the safehouse in Alderney took cover behind the wall and waited as cop after cop came in and blindfired with the assault rifle. Then I started shooting the door open and tossing grenades out. Before I knew it I was up to 6 stars. I had heard about people doing cheesy things to get the 6 stars for 5 minutes achievement so I figured I'd go for it a more legit way. I just kept tossing grenades out and blindfiring anyone who managed to get in the door. There were probably 20 bodies just in the little area between me and the door. Once I hit 5 minutes and got the achievement I was out of ammo for just about everything except my pistol so I ran outside and jumped in a swat van (There was only like three cops out there, everyone else was dead), then drove down to the docks, turned the van sideways to use as cover. Three cop cars came screeching down and blew right past me into the water. I managed to blow another car up, then when I had just a sliver of health I jumped back into the van and drove into the water and drowned instead of letting the cops get me.
Also when I was walking along Algonquin some bum with a cardboard sign said something like "Watch out for them aliens!" or something about aliens. I wish I could remember the exact line. |
I'm having a blast playing this game. Anybody think the magician and his assistant are George W. and Laura Bush? They sure look like them and the assistant's name is LAUREL.

No freezes or anything through the begining cut scene....went flawles. i can't wait to start playing this more. |

I really like the new targeting and cover systems. (borrows a bit from GoW, I think) At this point, I think my only complaint is that I enjoyed the San Andreas soundtrack a lot more. (But that's nitpicking) |

is it just me or is the bolt-action sniper easier to use than the semi-auto sniper? |
It's worth it to fail some missions just to hear the extra dialogue. This game is so ****ing perfect.

Man I finished the story missions, and I'm just glad it's over. Outside of a handful of standouts I didn't care for most of the story missions at all. Too much repetition and scripting and frustration when stupid shit happened and I had to do it over again. Many times I just wanted to get to the next cutscene.

I love this game.

Finally got into the multiplayer. Played Cops n Crooks, GTA Race, Mafia Work, and some free roam. Cops n Crooks is great when you have a competent team. One of the times I was on the crooks team and we were driving down the road and the boss just jumped out all of a sudden and ran off. He was killed. Mafia work is alright. I played one game and when me and another guy won the first two things everyone else dropped out so it was just me and him for the rest of the time. GTA Race is lots of fun. Free Roam is what you'd expect. Oh and Turf War. Our team kicked the other team's ass.
I also tried to play hangman's noose but we couldn't get any other players. I did see the cutscene though. Its the airport scenario the only one? Pretty much lag free as well. |
