GTA:San Andreas

[Smash]

I started the snapshots.

This is a part of a game that would be absolutely impossible to do without a guide.There is just no way IMO.Its hard enough with a guide!!

Gosh,darn I hate the bathtub motorcycle challenge(SF docks).Forum posters say its easy rather than hard at about 8>2.(8 say easy,2 say hard).Its hard damit.
I am wondering if it can be done with a jetpack or something.You get off the motorcycle and the coronas dissappear until you get back on.Prolly only will work with that bike.

I actually failed the first mission after Green Saber.I blew the witness's head off with a shotgun and there was nothing left to photograph

Anybody ever seen the show "The Sheild"?...methinks the lads at Rockstar North have been watching.

I just got gold for all the Airstrip mission, and it gave me a Hunter that spawns at the AirStrip. It is very cool, except in Sandstroms, makes it hard to fly.

This game is just over the top.Everything you ever wished was in a GTA game is in this one.

Tow trucks that can actually tow another vehicle.
Car carriers you can load up.
Farm tractors you can hook up a plow to
Trucks that can hook up and haul trailers(tractor trailer)
You can even fly a jumbo jet or drive the train!

The jet pack is unreal for exploring.I luv it.2 players can have at it in this version.

Bout the only thing they missed is scuba gear/submarine.I have even driven a ride em lawn mower


I found a super easy way to vigilante.Involves parking the car so when you exit you immediately walk into a "yellow arrow" thing at a tattoo parlor,ammunation ..what have you.All you gotta do is get in and out of the vehicle.

 

[Chaos_BF1942]

Where can you find the lawn mower? I want to get in some Police chases on one. I already did it one a golf cart ^_^;;

 

[Smash]

I found one in a neighbor's yard by my safehouse in Blueberry County iirc.The county where a "girlfreind" appears on the roof next to the Ammunation

I recommend the forklift, it fun to drive up to cars and pick up the rear wheels and watch them try to drive away.

Anyone done the triathlon on the Los Santos beach? Was much fun, easily beat everyone on the bike, though they very nearly caught up with me on the run itself.

What's this about a jumbo jet? Is it a proper passenger airliner and, naturally, where is it?

 

[Fetus4188]

I've seen one in a hanger in the Las Venturas airport.

 

[Smash]

The hardest thing about the big jet is getting it out of the hanger.

I have done a triathlon.Very cool.Did you know there are 2 of them?

The other one is in the upper right hand corner of Los Santos.Something Lagoon(sorry I can't recall right now).Its much longer also.

 

[Chaos_BF1942]

I'll have to do that triathlon, it sounds like fun.

The Hunter's Vigilante Mission is pretty easy sometimes, but when you get to cities it hard.

A fun thing to do is shooting down the cop helicopters with the Hunter, it sometimes hard, but fun if you do it right.

 

[Smash]

The 2nd tri starts at Fisher's Lagoon.

You'll need to be no more than 3/4 muscle and max stamina obviously.

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

Isn't there one to the south - somewhere near the 'Back o' Beyond' area? I haven't actually found it, but have heard it's there. Was considering a search for it tonight.

Have been amazed by this game for the past few weeks now. Think it's going to be a long while before I actually have seen everything. Which is nice.

 

[Smash]

I finally completed the BF-500 challenge.Yahoo!

Reminded me of VC driving a SUV thru a park full of coronas or GTA3's Patriot Mission.Very annoying.No tips on how to complete from me.I couldn't believe I got it.

Then I took on Supply Lines again.

First go.No sweat

Next annoying task:Flight School and Zeroing In

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

Am going for all-gold in Flight School. Circling the Runway was easier this time, though the Circling+Landing is taunting me by only giving me 95% each time. I must try harder.

Zeroing In is still giving me problems, I suffer the same pattern each time: hold them off quite well to begin with, then I get overwhelmed. Just have to wait for that one lucky try at it

 

[SunTzu]

Got all gold in flight school and boat school, the hunter is just awesome. I've been playing Everquest 2 lately though so GTA has taken a back seat lately, but now that i know that i can fly a passenger airplane i think i'm gonna have to go give it a try

 

[Smash]

There is alot of talk about UFO's in the game and on forums.

If you've been to the Lil' Probe Bar,you have seen the map of SA in the back room with 7 points marked on it.

One rumor has it you go to a marked spot between 0:00 and 05:00 you will see a UFO close up.I have seen nothing except smashed Glendales at the spots and a refinery plant or something.

I have searched area 69 or whatever thouroughly and there is next to nothing there...as far as I can tell anyways...although a similiar map is in the control tower..........

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

At night you can normally see a green/white light in the sky with a vapour trail behind it. Moves to fast to be a plane, and I couldn't catch up to it in any of my planes. Only had success with the harrier, and up close all it was was a ball of light.

Am assuming this is supposed to be a U.F.O. and that you're not supposed to see it up close. I could be completelt wrong though.

Was also intrigued by the Lil' Probe Inn map. I think one of the 'hotspots' is the farm you can buy in the south-east, and the other is in Back O' Beyond, which is where I've been hearing a lot of odd rumours occuring there

 

[SunTzu]

Ok the passenger jet, is it there only during a certain time? or is there a mission i must complete to get it?

 

[Chaos_BF1942]

The passenger is in one of the big Hangers, the doors will have to open to get to it, it like the one at Flight School.

I found the Rocket Launcher that you can 'lock-on' to stuff. It is fun ^_^

 

[SunTzu]

yeah i found the hanger at Las Venturas, but no passenger.
