I do like the fact that the cops have to arrive at a crime scene and see you before you get chased by them. True Crime is a lot worse since it has dragons even though the title is True Crime.

**Optik** · 12-31-2004, 04:31 PM

Yeh, I use R1 to slide quick as hell and usually get 7.5 seconds on every lap, going to have to try it in first person next time around...

Also, Im going to try to get to OG status today, a good place to get your stats up is the area in Area 69 where the Hyrdas and Hunter is located because it seems the AI is too stupid to drive through that side gate to get in after you, so just go there with a large supply of Rockets and have fun...

The reason the GTA series gets blamed for it is because they are the one who kind of brought up the idea of a free roaming world, they had the break out game, and most people consider those games cheap knockoffs. However, I do plan to purschase Fear and Respect when it comes out in late 2005...

**Hired Hitman** · 01-01-2005, 11:22 AM

use brake instead of R1, that is how I done it.

I bet my last $79000 or so on a 12/1 horse and it came through

I am now a gangsta

I'm taking it you meant you won that money?

**Hired Hitman** · 01-01-2005, 09:09 PM

My bet was $9999995 & I won about $119999940 earning me 24 thousand rating points

119999940 / 5000 = 23999.998 points

I found it on my own.

01-02-2005, 02:55 AM

Anyway, I've pretty much hijacked everything except for a plane.

Still looking.

Any help?

**Hollywood Red** · 01-02-2005, 02:58 AM

Try an airport. You'll have to hop a fence until you have your license.

Or wait until you learn how to fly and then you can freely take planes.

That's ALL I'm telling you. No one helped me. Half the fun is in figuring shit out.

**Optik** · 01-02-2005, 01:59 PM

Wait, the max bet at the ITB is only 10,000...

**Hired Hitman** · 01-02-2005, 08:13 PM

You keep clicking it, fool.

**Hired Hitman** · 01-02-2005, 08:15 PM

Yes, you have to click X 999-times. then click 1000 nine times, then click 25 three times then click 5 four times. and you will have the bet of 9,999,995, it helps if you're playing through the vcr so you can watch tv while you click, or it could get quite boring.

Get a car, line it up against a wall, and jump.

**Hired Hitman** · 01-03-2005, 01:30 AM

It would be cool to hijack a plane in mid air

Parachutte down and steal a plane

Which wall though?

The fence or the concrete one?

Either one.

**Hired Hitman** · 01-03-2005, 05:00 AM

use a mule truck or any truck that is tall but you can climb up on (or get a car to stand on to jump on the truck), that would make it easier

**VJW** · 01-03-2005, 08:33 AM

Christ, I just caused the biggest wreck that I've ever seen in San Andreas . . . I drove my favorite and best looking car out of the garage of the house near the free way and drove past the barrier next to the house and patiently drove the sexy car across the road that was disconnecting from the highway when all of a sudden a pick up truck (the big ones, not the bobcat) suddenly slammed into my door and caused me to skid out onto the other road's lane. I quickly backed up to avoid any more damage. I sat in the car for a moment on the field watching dozens of cars slamming into each other, flipping over on each other, and exploding on each other. This lasted for a long time and there was a whole bunch of fire in front of me. Christ, I've never seen any wreck as big as that in SA. The highways are dangerous in Las Ventureas(sp?)!

**Optik** · 01-03-2005, 11:41 PM

Try putting on aggressive traffic and watch it get even more dangerous...

DS · 01-04-2005, 01:00 AM

They need working blinkers in the next game. Just put it on a random timer, say out of 100. If it lands between 1 and 75 then the blinker works, if it lands between 75 and 100 they just switch lanes without it. That way the majority of the time I can tell when someone is going to go in my lane and it resembles real world technique.

**Hired Hitman** · 01-04-2005, 01:32 AM

Other drivers smashing up your cars all the time, ds?

01-04-2005, 01:33 AM

EDIT - Found it.

**Mr. Monday Morning** · 01-05-2005, 11:21 AM

I'm not gonna go back through 57 pages to see if anyone posted anything about it so...anyone got any tips for hijacking the magnet plane wotsit out of the base in Venturas? I jetpacked up to the landing pad but I got hit with a SAM (even though I'd already ditched the pack

) and then got shot up since I had no health left

**Dave Youell** · 01-05-2005, 11:29 AM

I'm in San Feirro and have yet to visit a betting shop, i need cash, where the fuck is the nearest bookies?

**Hired Hitman** · 01-05-2005, 12:17 PM

as soon as you start the mission, there is a pariot driving out of the base, you could run in when it leaves, or use the J.P. to boost over the fence and land infront of the warehouse then go though with the whole mission instead of being a pussy and trying to get the chopper and go

**Disturbed316** · 01-05-2005, 12:25 PM

I just did it the old fashion way...I shot my way through about 30 guys and helicopters and then stole the thing.

It's called tactics :foc:

**Disturbed316** · 01-05-2005, 04:10 PM

ROFL Just got the jetpack, it's the greatest thing in the world. Is it only available for pick up from your airport or is it dotted around the place?

**Optik** · 01-05-2005, 05:07 PM

Only at your airstrip. Also you don't need to fly over the fence to reach the chopper, on the southside their is a fence that can be knocked down with a car, just make sure your destroy the SAM's before you take the chopper.

Dave, check the map that came with the game...

**Disturbed316** · 01-05-2005, 05:13 PM

Still, it's a great way to get around the place.

**VJW** · 01-05-2005, 08:41 PM

They should've allowed us to keep in in our garages.

**Disturbed316** · 01-06-2005, 05:52 PM

Just bought every property and every piece of clothing I can, I'm looking really pimp now

ROFL at the sign at the top of the bridge in San Fierro, I love that jetpack.

01-07-2005, 02:23 AM

Now, I'm in a contest with latinos, hopping my car.

I fucking can't do this.

I do the right movies, but it says I'm to fast, thus I don't get any money.

I wait till it's in the cricle though.

**Disturbed316** · 01-08-2005, 06:07 PM

Got to the Riot part....holy...shit.

Use the music to help you.

**Evil Vito** · 01-08-2005, 08:02 PM

Haven't played the game in a while.

Gotta get back into it and finish up the Heist/Zero stuff.

**Hired Hitman** · 01-17-2005, 12:47 AM

I just beat the game for a second time today, just as good going through the second time, I even picked up on some things I didn't see, it's like watching a movie twice.

**Joe Kerr** · 01-17-2005, 12:54 AM

I havent played in awhile it was great at first then a shitload of other games came out kinda distracted me.

**VJW** · 01-19-2005, 01:39 AM

I got into a war with the cops today next to the Wang Cars. Mini gun is awesome even though running is difficult when you're holding it. I shot down a chopper and tried to run away but the explosion left me with about 1 ounce of help and part of the first got on me which caused a painful death. I'm trying to focus on Metal Gear Solid but that game doesn't seem as fun even though it's a nice challenge.
