(copied from old boards)

First off I must mention that the strats that you are about to read aren?t for everyone. They are the ones that I use to finish the game, however, and work for me. Before you attempt any of the strats keep in mind simple common sense rules of thumb. (ie) Have ammo, armor and for goodness sake save progress. I would also like you to know that if you are reading this to get the down low on a specific mission you may be disappointed. I only deal with story critical missions on this thread. That being said: Part One

Rosenberg Missions: Before you even start these find all 40+ hidden packages accessable by foot. Vigalante, Ambulance, Taxi etc. etc. is advisable but optional. Finding all HP?s not only gives you gear it helps familiarize you with the area.

The Party - This mission is pretty cut n? dry. No big strat here except pick up the 9mm. on the step of the building above the underground garage. Free weapons and ammo is a gift horse and should never be looked in the mouth.

Back Alley Brawl - By now you should have armor and a 9mm. Don?t waste your ammo on the cook and his boys. Whack them with a blunt or bladed weapon. You will get a police rating but there is a star ahead in the alley. A fun way to get rid of the cooks is to grill em? with the flamethrower. Keep sharp though as they will run toward you on fire. If you do dispense the cooks with a gun make sure it?s the 9mm. and not the .357. The .357 requires stationary aiming.

Jury Fury - A fairly simple mission if you don?t crash and die on the way there. Like the rules say don?t kill jury members. Smash their rides with a ?blunt weapon.? I prefer the four iron. It?s the only BW that I know of that can pop out a front windshield. The first guy is easy. Arrive, smash, and go. Second is a little harder. When you arrive park aways away as not to interrupt the following cutscene. Walk up to the lady talking to the man and punch her in the face. Wait for cutscene end, then smash away. NOTE: If a cop goes after you, run and gun taking a few swings at the car at a time.

Riot - If you have found HP?s (no. 9 on VCU) you?ll know where a sub-machine gun is. You should have been collecting it regularly by now as well. Once you have gotten your overalls at Raphael?s you now go to SpandEX HQ. Pick a fight with 4 unioners by driving over a few then back out of the fenced area. It will trigger cutscene. Afterwards you run to the target vans and destroy the two by the barrel first. You destroy the second with the SMG. Often there are guys attacking you. Kill them, but do not attack others. Wait until mission is over and watch the fighters kill each other. Pick up the loot they drop. Free money is another gift horse. !!You should not be ?Buying? weapons yet!! NOTE: HP is hidden behind SpandEX building.


Cortez Missions: Avery missions as well as telephoe missions have been unlocked but they are not critical to finishing the game. Proceed to Cortez missions.

Treacherous Swine - Time to whack Gonzales. Cortez should give you chainsaw. It is heavy and you can?t sprint with it. Rabbit jumping, which you can do, is like a walk 1/2. It will help you close the distance between you and your target. Saw him, and his boys if you like. It will give you a police rating. Get the star near the Pizza Boy.

Mall Shootout - I can?t stress enough the importance of having the SMG for this mission. Also have armor. After meeting with the French guy he?ll run and the legionaires will fire on you. French guy will take bike and speed away. Chase him down with SMG blazing. If he crashes before a bullit kills him he?ll attack you. Shoot him first! Now take package and haul it. Cops will be on you so either get back to Cortez quick or find stars.

Guardian Angels - Full armor and SMG are manditory. Once you have collected Lance at the carpark go to meeting place. After cutscene get into position atop stairs. Keep a very close eye on radar for Hatians. Kill them quickly when they arrive. Once bike pair come to steal the cash you will have to chase one down. Jump off the building, change to SMG and get on bike. Chase down Hatian and kill him then return cash to Diaz. NOTE: Diaz and Lance must survive mission.


Diaz Missions: Starfish Island will be unlocked. Immediatly find all five HP?s.

The Chase - Somebody is skimming off the top. Go to his apartment. However, ?Before? you trigger any ?glowing pink circles,? Do This. Find a durable four wheeled vehicle. The skooter they provide is junk and dies easily. I suggest a BF Injection. It can take a beating and still drive controlably with a tire/s shot out. When you get car park it next to the Inside Track sign which is on the wall just around the corner, only a few steps away, from where the skooter will be parked. Now trigger GPC?s. It will lead you to a footrace across rooftops. Don?t kill the guy. Just follow. He will leap down off building and hop aboard a BF waiting for him. He will drive away shooting. Get in your car and follow him. He will continue to shoot as he runs away. Weave back an forth as you follow him utilizing other cars and building corners as cover. Keep him in sight though. He will stop on Prawn Island. Follow him right to where he parks. Mission will end. NOTE: At no time must you shoot the man or the car he?s riding in.

Phnom Pehn 86? - Now it?s time to go back to Prawn Island aboard a helicopter. The heli is a fairly durable machine. Just eliminate ground targets quickly and you shouldn?t have much problem. Once ground targets are gone Lance will land chopper and you proceed on foot. Before this mission you should have gotten armor. You probably won?t be hassled much but just in case, get it. You will have heavy calibre gun to finish this mission. I suggest single shot as opposed to spray. It saves ammo and one round kills instantly. Use creep method, which is to inch up until you have something to shoot that is blinded by obstruction. Put a single round into gang members which are scattered around in building. You can run and gun but I prefer conservitive approach. They are on floor level and on the zig zagged stairway. Know where they are! Cash will be on roof. Collect it and mission ends.

And so ends the first part of the game. I will add strats for later missions on this thread. But now if you have some questions I?ll be happy to answer them. A few minor notes though: Like I said these strats work for me but may be not for you. These strats only work if you are familiar with an area, know where free gear is, and know what to expect from a mission. By now you should have started and failed each of these several times. Learn from each one. Strats only help if you have some idea of what you?re doing in the first place. If you master them they can enable you to start and finish the game in the same day.

(Part 2 from old boards)


I?m glad you guys have found my strats useful. You should find the next ones just as. Here is the second part of the mission by mission. By now you should know the first island pretty well. You should have collected most of the available hidden packages and know where at least a few free weapons and armor are. You shouls also know which cars perform best in certain situation and just how much damage they can take before you?re running from it before it explodes. So without further ado here is: Part Two.


Diaz Missions: Cont?. You?ve just taken out a slew of gang members on Prawn Island and you?ve just heard on the radio that Hurrican Hermoine has just passed by. Now you must complete a very important task. After PP86? you now have access to three different copters. All three are located in Downtown. The VCN news chopper, which will lead you to an early grave, the Mavrick and the Police chopper. Pick the Police chopper is you want to find the rest of the hidden packages, which you will do now, in the shortest amount of time. If you want to listen to the radio while you do it you?re going to have to take one of the other two and fly to the top of Hyman Condos in Downtown. Once you have your vehicle of choice proceed to find the remaining packages. At 80 HP?s you will get Sea Sparrow. Get it and use it for the last pkgs. On occasion I have been busted by a cop that?s spawned near the SS?s landing pad. Be Wary. Be also aware that the last HP is near Army base. Get too close and they will shoot you. Park copter away from base within sprinting distance. You?ll want to make a quick exit. Having the Hunter gunship now you can get vigalante goal out of the way easily. Do this now. Be careful though. Fly in low behind the barracks and land right next to it. Then jump into the Hunter and haul it. Now it?s time for missions.


Fastest Boat - Diaz wants a fast boat. Give him one. It?s at the dock in Viceport. The building behind which this boat is docked is surrounded by fencing. Use it to your advantage. Run and gun if you want to but the method I use is this. Having both armor and sniper rifle approch fencing carefully. Use telezoom to find your targets. Take them out. There should be few patrolling outside. In this process you will get police rating. Do not allow two star, but allow one star to fade. It takes time I know but it beats the cops spooking the other guards. Stealth was the plan anyway. After you have off?d the guards on either side of the building there will be some in the front and on the jettys. After those are gone take out the three in the building. Boat switch should be yours now. Trip it and wait for guards to spawn and take them out. Cops will swarm on you now. Take boat an hang a louie to Daiz mansion. Mission will end. NOTE: red aiming dot should indicate where a target is really aquired with the rifle.

Supply and Demand - I can?t really apply any good strat here other than learn how to shoot well from a moving target. I suggest you leap into the back of a moving Bobcat and practice with the sniper on gang members. Cops won?t like you doing that though so know where stars are. Also learn the boat. Several different models are docked all over the place. Take one and get a good feel for the water. Once in the mission be aggressive but not too. You may capsize and die. Odds are you?re not going to finish this one on the first try. You?ll need to be able to beat two sets of boats to get to your target. And you?ll need to beat them there in order to continue. Once you have you?ll be in a PP86? situation firing on other boats, stationary targets, and airborne copters. Don?t panic and keep your crosshairs on. Killing drivers first stops boats.

Cortez Missions: Cont?. It?s at this point when Col Cortez come back into the story.

Sir, Yes Sir - The Col wants a Rhino, so get him one. Easier said than done. Get armor and sniper ammo. You?ll NEED them. Take a copter to the second island. The convoy will be driving south along the street along the water. Find a good camp along somewhere. The bank works for me. In this convoy will be a tank, which you want, and two Barraks OL?s and some Patriots which you don?t. They are filled to the gills with soldiers. In order to stop the convoy park your chopper in the middle of the street. The convoy will stop and a soldier will get to move the copter. He can get in and even start the copter but he will not be able to fly it away. Use this time to target the vehicles with the rifle. A few rounds in each one will destroy them. Rhino will be immune. NOTE: At the first shot the soldiers will go crazy and attack you. Don?t panic and keep your targets within sight. Rhino may try to run but dead vehicles in front of it should keep it there. Yes kill vehicles in front of tank first. If soldier in tank is still there walk to front of tank aim through front slit and kill driver. Take Rhino now. Timebomb will be activated but you should beat time. Don?t get hung up or you?ll be dead. Garage is only a few blocks away. This mission is easy to screw up. You?ve been warned. NOTE: minigun is a good subsitute but will leave you open and slow you down.

Diaz Missions: Cont?2. Now it gets interesting.

Death Row - Lance got himself in trouble with Diaz. He?s being held at the junkyard. There are three effective yet progressivly more difficult ways of doing this. 1st Method: After getting armor and ammo goto Malibu a talk to Kent Paul. Get in a fast and Controlable car. Drive to junkyard. Guards will be everywhere. Use a weapon that kills quickly. I suggest sniper or mini gun. I can?t tell you how to proceed from here. Every time it?s different. Just kill guards and get to Lance quickly. Once you have done so kill any stragglers and pick up as much remaining loot as you can. The next part is tricky though. You?ll need to get to the building that you go to in the Hatain: Dirty Lickin mission. It will be the one right in front of the junkyard with the incline to the roof. Once there you can be out of reach of the Comets that come to get you. Take them out carefully from the roof. Lance will be standing right behind you and explosions will reach there. Also on occasion a Comet will drive up to the roof. It sucks. Allow Comets to damage themselves to death to save ammo and be safer. Once Comets are dead, and make sure ALL are dead, drive Lance to hospital. 2nd Method: Fly two seat chopper to junkyard approaching from east. Land it quickly just inside fence. Get out and kill guards. IF your chopper is destroyed repeat second part of first method. 3rd Method: This is the easiest. If your chopper is not destroyed than you can transport Lance to the hospital with it. Land on the roof of the hospital and wait for Comets to show up. Most will destroy themselves. If there are any left find a spot on the roof where you can shoot down. Eleminate Comets and fly down to the GPC. NOTE: Lance is following you wherever you go. He is an idiot and will do unexpected things. Remember he is there and be careful what you do.

Rub Out - Now it is time for Diaz to die. After stocking up on armor and ammo you will go to GPC in front of mansion. Lance will meet you there. He?ll equip you with assault rifle. Save it for later. Use sniper first to take out guards around in the front. You will get a police rating but cops will rarely get inside compound. After the gaurds in front are dead switch to a SMG for the hedge maze. NOTE: get to know maze a bit beforehand. It makes things easier to get to guards before lance does so he won?t take damage. After you have navigated the maze you will reach passage under the house. Take hallway to your right as opposed to walking straight. you can get the drop on the guards using the creep method. After the two here are dead you proceed across the way into the next passage. That will lead you to the stairs. Before entering switch to assault rifle. A guard will be right there in front of you on the steps when you spawn. Kill him then walk backwards up the stairs while you aim upwards for the guards who will be there. Walk up until you are at the higher level where you can aim down at Diaz. Some guards will be around so take them out. Approaching Diaz?s office will trigger cutscene so switch to either mini gun or sniper beforehand. A few good shots in the head or a good spray will take him down. Voila! The mansion is yours!


Vercetti Missions: You?ve got a new house! Before you can make any cash you need to do a few things. Okay Three things.

Shakedown - Get SMG! It?s imparitive you get one. Smashing windows with a BW is too time consuming. Get armor as well. Hop into a fast car which should be parked in front of your mansion. Drive carefully and do not crash as time is critical. Get to the mall fast and enter. Shops will be upstairs and downstairs. Use SMG to shoot out windows. You?ll get police rating fast. Cops will swarm you so sprint from shop to shop, and using rabbit jumps when you tire. Get to your targets quickly and take them out. Police rating will grow after each hit. End mission as fast as you can. NOTE - Street clothes in front of The Gash can be used to eliminate two star rating. Sometimes.

Bar Brawl - You?re getting trouble from the PIG security guys. Teach them a lesson. Go to Washington/Ocean beach with a couple of your boys in the Admiral. Park across the street by the trees. Take first two out with sniper. After cutscene you will need to get to next target quickly as it is timed. PIGs will be protected somewhat by concrete walls. Use mini gun or grenades (behind PD in WB/VCU HP no. 15) which will destroy vehicles and kill targets from a distance. Once guards are dead you will get a cutscene. Two PIGs on bikes will run then. Switch to SMG and get in Admiral. Chase them down and ram them hard. If the first hit doesn?t kill them run them over quick or get out and shoot them. If you cannot catch them then go to lighthouse which is where they will end up. NOTE: If you leave your boys behind it doesn?t matter.

Copland - Read this one very carefully. Your boy has messed up a hit. You gotta correct it. Take Lance to Vice Point to a garage and get at least a two star police rating. It?s tricky but try to lure two cops into the garage. You most likely won?t succeed the first time you do this. Try again and when you succeed you will need to take a police vehicle to the mall. It doesn?t specify wheels though. Go to Downtown and get yourself a Police copter. Fly it to the mall and land it in a parking lot that is just west of it. You?ll see it. Now go into the mall and trigger the device. Now get the Hell Out! Get to the chopper fast but remember Lance is following you. Get in and lift off before the Cop whirlys get there. Fly back to your mansion and land in front of it by steps. There may be cops there waiting for you. Just get to GPC and you?ll be good.

And that?s where I?ll end this one. TO BE CONTINUED


(part 3 from old boards)


We?re in the home stretch now. The final batch of missions awaits you. By now you should know where you can get free weapons and have already found all 100 Hidden Packages. Doing the Vigalante mission is almost imparitive as well. Now that you can collect money generated at your mansion you can buy weapons. I? would hold off though until you have purchised The Malibu, Kaufman Cab, Pole Position, CP Ice Cream, Printworks, and Sunshine Autos. After which spend away. When you?ve finished the assets for these establishments you?ll be rolling in cash. Now here we go. NOTE: Asset Missions can be done in any order depending on your wallet.


Sunshine Autos: (Pasted from another thread) Get crackin?.

Before you start any of the car finding missions first collect all the cars on the list before you enter one in. You can store them at the dealership or you can buy the Hyman condos in Downtown by the stadium and store cars in there. That is if you don't already own the dealership. The condo garages can also come in handy if you already have a pretty good idea of what cars you will need in successive sets. Kill a few birds with one stone in other words. What I have found out is that once you have entered in a car it makes finding other cars in the same set harder to find. Perhaps it's just perception but I rather like to think RS planned it that way. If you get all the cars beforehand you won't run into that problem. If you can nail most of the cars in more than one set you will save lots of time. The key is to start thinking ahead before you start the car finding mission. Know what to look for and already have places to store lots of cars. Oh yes, and drive carefully. Nothing sucks more than wrecking a car that has a rare spawn. Also know where to get cars. These mission can take three hours or more but being smart and planning ahead you can cut down the time dramatically. NOTE: Only first set is required to finish asset. Finsing them all gives you more exta cars though.

The Malibu: Who wouldn?t want to own their own club? You can. If you have 120 grand that is.

No Escape? - So you want to make the big score huh? Well you?re going to need a cracker. Too bad the best in town is in the klink. Now you gotta bust him out. Sound easy? It ain?t. You?ll need to do three things. First you?ll need SMG in case you need to clear a path. Armor because you?ll need to run a gauntlet of sorts. And a Sea Sparrow because, even though a car getaway is possible, air travel keeps you out of reach. For the most part that is. You can be shot down. Keeping that in mind land your SS in the lot directly behind the VCPD in Washington Beach. It?ll be where the grenades spawn. Once you have done that enter the PD. To your immediate left will be a locker room. Go in and trigger the GPC. You?ll be decked out in a Cop uni. Now go upstairs. At the back of the room will be an office where you pick up the passcard. Get it and go down to the cells on the bottom floor. Trigger lock and release. It gets tricky after the cutscene. Lead Cam Jones out of the PD. All the way out cops will be shooting at you. NOTE: Cops will be aiming at you, not Cam Jones. He can be hit by crossfire though. If you encounter a human wall use SMG to clear a path. Yes it can and most likley will increase your police rating. Once out of the PD you will see a Sentinel parked outside to your left. Don?t take it. Instead run around back to where you parked your SS. Get in and lift orr ASAP. Get in the air and head to square where VCU HP no. 31 is located. In middle of square is star. Get it and fly to mall. In front is another star. Get that and fly to Prawn Island and get star by VCU HP no. 41. After that just let remaining star go away and drop Cam Jones off. Mission ends, thumbs protrude upward.

The Shootist - What strats apply to this mission depends on who you ask. I don?t have anything signifigant to impart to you other than that get good at shooting. You need an overall score of 60 to finish it. If you have time you can return to the range anytime you want and try for the auto-reload challenge. It?s an overall score of 90 or something. I don?t pay much attention to it. I just like to get this one out of the way. On a fun note you can finish off targets after each round is over.

The Driver - No real strats here either. Hillary is a real SOB. He?s an agressive driver and an intense competitor. I almost never finish this mission on the first try. Hillary is just that good. I do have a few pointers. The car Hillary drives is the Sabre Turbo. It has better pickup than the Sentinel you?ll be driving. However, the Sentinel has a faster top speed and can overtake the ST on straightaways. NOTE: I really don?t need to tell any of you that driving skills is key here. Keep in mind that the cops will be chasing you and that the Sentinel is unstable if fishtailed or if it catches an obstruction. It also has a slow recovery time. In other words, Keep Sharp. Hillary will try to take you out if you get too close. Real time strats are better used on this mission like quick judgement and seeing opportunities coming. Each race is different and finish each one regardless if you know if you?ll win or not. Knowing the track is very important. Knowing where the cops spawn is good too. More than that good luck.

The Job - Now it?s time to get larcenous. You and the other guys are going to rob the bank. Get prepped beforehand with armor and ammo. You?ll trigger a few cutscenes before you get into the thick of it. The first GPC has a hidden danger though. Your guys can get killed crossing the street. And Hillary can get totaled before you get to second GPC. Possibility is remote but it can happen. Just get across the street and trigger the GPC and you won?t have to worry about anything going wrong. Once you get into the bank you get another cutscene. Now it?s time to get up to the vault. You have to get past five guards though. Know where they are and kill them quick. NOTE: It?s possible to get stuck in a rut if the bank manager you collect gets stuck in the architecture. Make sure tag-alongs tag along. Now comes the interesting part. A PIG trips the alarm and now you have to fend off swat guys rappeling from the cieling. Use either an assault rifle, sniper, or mini gun to take them out. Be careful not to kill your boys. There are too many cutscenes in the mission to make repeats enjoyable. Once you clear the room you have to make a break for it. A cutscene see Hillary come to save the day and get shot down like Battlefield Earth by swat guys. Kill the swat guys making sure not to hit the taxi. Running with Cam and Phil for another car is sad. Just sad. Get into the taxi and crash through the two enforcers blocking your way. Then cross the street into the grass and trees and hug the sea wall until you get to the Paint N? Spray. Trees should offer some protection. Get in the PS and wait until your flashing stars vanish. Be careful when you?re on your home free drive to watch out for any remaining swat guys. They?ll shoot at you even when you don?t have police rating.

Pole Position - No brainer here. Just sit down and watch dancer while your money disappears. You can cycle through your dancers if you don?t like the one you?re stuck with. Just exit and re-enter the room.

Cherry Popper - Most time consuming mission in the game. You can make it easier if you do this. Find a sopt where there is a lot of regular foot traffic that is ?Outside? gang areas. Make sure when you switch to wide view you can see pretty far on either side of the truck. Get that jingle going. Keep an eye on who runs to your truck. If there is no pink arrow above a running person than its a cop. If it is be sure to pick a place that has plenty of backup space that leads to an unpopulated area. If you get a police rating then back up ?Far? and wait until it goes away. If you get a two star rating know where a star is and the fastest way to get to it. NOTE: You cannot under any circumstances exit your truck. The mission will end. You need 50 to win.

Printworks: You need a lot of fake cash quick. Somebody else has the plates you need.

Spilling the beans - You get a tip that a guy knows when some good quality plates will be in town. Get armor an SMG. Take a copter to Viceport and land it in middle of the circle of trailers adjacent to the ship. Get out and approach the incline. Now haul it up there and turn left. Guards will be shooting at you. Try to avoid getting hit. When you reach the back of the boat get behind the equipment that is there. A guard will be there attacking you. Take him out. Above you will be more guards. Back up and take out any you see from a distance. Depending on the try they will be there or not. If not you?ll need to make your way up. Always keep an eye up above you and try to move up between the gunfire bursts. This mission requires real time judgement and I can?t really tell you what to do. When you see a guard do not hesitate. Take him out. There should be three in the succeeding levels. When you get the info more guards will show up. You can ease back down or charge down. How lucky do you feel? It could go either way. Easing down works as well as charging. It?s good and challenging regardless. Utilize the angles and blindspots. The stairs will hinder your view. Always assume there is a guard beneith them. One you get to the bottom level get out of there. Across the street there is armor on the steps of a building. By now you could be shot up good. After you get that get into the copter and lift off ASAP. Then get back to the printworks and land quickly. NOTE: This is one you?ll likley fail the first couple of times. Cool out and try again. Know a good approx. where the guards will be. Method 2: If you don?t want to UT it you can Rainbow Six it. Use sniper to pick off as many guards as you can from the dock. Then sneak aboard from the back of the boat and work your way forward killing all in nooks. Kill from distance to not let them see you. NOTE: Once alarm is tripped after interrogation the guards will spawn continuously.

Hit the Courier - You got the info. Now go pick up the plates. First you have to get through an army of heavily armed women. I suggest you use a copter to get there the fastest. Land by the the van that?s next to the SMG. It?s just a ways from your destination which you can see easily from the air. The landing point of the courier is the same square that?s used in the cutscene that opened the game. From where you land there should be a building seperating you from that square. Switch to SMG and run down the alley behind it. The women will see you and will start shooting. Get behind the tower that?s next to the edge of the dock. Once behind it switch to assault rifle, sniper, or mini gun. The tower should provide you some cover. Use it to take out the women. Especially the shotgunners. DO NOT shoot the cars behind them. If you do the courier will not exit the copter which you also don?t shoot. Once she is out of the copter take her out and anyone else that gets near the package. Get the package and get out of there. Cops should be on you. If the courier?s chopper is still intact use it to get away. If cops are around before you take off shoot them. Take off over the water. Do not risk flying over land as there may be stragglers that?ll take out your whirly. Fly over water until the bridge than turn left and go to printworks. NOTE: Shotguns eat through armor faster than if somebody bagged one of Ripley?s badguys. Eliminate women quickly as there are many shotgunners. If you have to get to another vehicle know there are stargglers and cops after you. Get to your chopper if you can. Lift off quickly and get the hell away. If your chopper is trashed and you still live get in a car and haul it. Use back alleys and off beaten paths to get to the printworks. I hate car chases and try to avoid them when I can. Remember to stay in the middle of the road to avoid spikes.

Kaufman Cab: You just bought a cab company. Too bad another company hates you.

V.I.P. - Get to Starfish Island quickly. If you possibly can try to park with your front as close to the wall as possible. Then honk. If you are far enough up the rival cab will slam into you and veer off into the adjacent yard. It will drive along the wall and get stuck at the far wall. Use SMG or BW to damage taxi until VIP get out. Run back to you cab with VIP and drive to airport. If you don?t manage to nudge rival cab enough drive-by him with some collisions mixed in until VIP gets out. Haul it to airport as rival will be chasing you. He?ll be following close so change lanes frequently and use other cars as obstructions.

Friendly Rivalry - Other cab firm is working your turf. Teach them a lesson. Don?t mess around with this one if you don?t have the time. Look to see where each is going and head them off with enough time to get out and switch to mini gun and destroy cabs. That?s about it. No other strat here besides ruthlessness.

Cabmaggedon - Mercedes wants you to meet her. Whoops, it?s not Mercedes it?s a setup. When the rivals show up have your cab pointing toward rivals. Drive past the charging cabs to the pillar nearest the entrance/exit. Wait about a half second then drive between it and the wall. The rivals should get trashed good. Now haul it to the pillars next to 8ball depot. Drive through the middle of them and repeat first action. When Zebra shows up make sure you are covered well by a pillar or building corner. Use sniper and shoot driver through front windshield. If you want it over quickly use mini gun. NOTE: Don?t bring a banged up taxi into the fray. Use PS that?s near site.

Vercetti Missions: The world series of GTA is here. How will you fare.

Cap the Collector - Your first test is some theives on bikes taking your money. Find them and Run them down. They?ll be the two losers on the Sanchez. If your first hit doesn?t kill them get out and shoot them. Then move on the next pair. There should be three or more pairs which can go after any one of your places. Find them, kill them and pick up your cash which they drop.

Keep your friends Close - Make sure you have some cool duds for the cutscenes. I like Mr. Vercetti clothes. To make this mission easier use nothing but the mose powerful weapons. Like the big three of the assault rifle, sniper and mini gun. I affectionatly refer to this trio as the MiniAssWipers. Tons of guys that need tons of bullets will try to storm your office. Dust them as you see them. They?ll be spawning from three points. Main entrance, side hall and upstairs hall. Take them out while moving back and forth over the cutscesne trigger point which is behind the top of the main stairs in front of your office. If you are not on the trigger point the bad guys keep spawning. When lance shows up kill him quick or you will have to chase him upstairs to helipad. If so then get back to your office fast. If you live that is. If you do manage to kill Lance quick stay right there and kill bads guys until Sonny shows up. NOTE: If you lose too much armor it spawns in three places. Side room, basement, and front yard. Always get back to trigger point.

Well that?s it. If I remember any more strats for these missions I?ll post them. If any of you have questions please feel free to ask them.

It's not so much a guide as it is a series of "How do I's."

I don't advertise my tips as the end all best ways of going about each mission. They are just the best ways for me. I don't reccomend them for everyone either. I could be going about it completely backasswards for all I know. I just decided that it would be more time effective If I were to tender them all at once rather than work them into the conversation over a long period of time. Which is another thing I won't outright endorse. I wrote my self into a delirium over that. I'm wordy but even that was a headache to write. And to *ahem*....read.

But thanks man. Anything I can do to help out my fellow gta players.

Nice mission guide, though one thing cought my eye. The guide for the mission 'Sir, Yes Sir' is pretty complicated ... I know a much easier way ..

No guns or armor is needed. Just take the Cheetah next to you, drive near the convoy, wait until they reach the shop near police station (little red one, .. the one you can rob, you know). They'll stop in front of the shop. Then a commander shouts: "Go get some donuts solider!", solider: "Sir, Yes Sir!", Commander: "Convoy, HOLD!" ... Now's your chance, run to the tank and enter (commander: "Civilians, move away from the tank!", you just ignore it). And drive to Cortez's locker, its just around the corner.

I like it man. Simpler is better any way you shake it. I kind of like to blow stuff up, but then again I never claimed any of my methods were ultimatly efficiant. Kudos dude. Good tip. thumbsup.gif

Lots of people complain about the RC heli mission where you carry bombs to destroy the building- i don't know why. it's so EASY!!!
First, you need the set the controls to you preferences so you're familiar with it. Next, when you're doing the mission, all you have to do to avoid the guards and workers is to fly as close to the ceiling as possible!
If you must, land the heli and any hammer guys coming after you will be killed by the rotor blade. Don't worry about the guns, 90% of the shots miss and the rest don't do much damage as long as you stay close to the ceiling. Otherwise, it's a snap. I finished it on my first try

I find that practicing with the news copter, found on top of the VCPN building in Downtown, accessible through the side door, makes flying the RC copter is much easier. Take the news copter to some of the higher bridges and practice flying under them. I would recommend saving before you do this. Also try landing on large moving vehicles and then taking off without getting out of the copter. Try landing on parked cars first. You'll build up your coordination fairly fast. Then you'll be able to try to fly fast in straight lines. Use the airport to practice this. All other copters are too easy to handle. The news copter is the next hardest to control after the RC copter.

Yes there are cheats that could help but I don't give advice on them. You don't need them IMO. However if you insist on using them go HERE.

Anyways I hope this helps.

You probably should have started a new topic.

But anyway, if there's a mission that you absolutely cannot finish then a google
search for saved missions in vice city should bring up some sites where you can
download that saved mission and bypass that one.

I remember trying that mission the first time. I finally got pretty good at
flying the rc copter but I prefer the murder and mayhem missions.

Be aware that many of the cheats will cause a warning if you try to save
the mission. It's highly recommended that you do not save it.
