it's not good when you get lost in a city...namely, I find myself continually ass backwards in San Fierro

11/7/2004 12:35:54 PM

it is fun to hop the fence at the airport and fly into 4 star territory and try not to get hit by the missles

11/7/2004 1:25:00 PM

haha hell yeah, I got my pilot skill high as hell like that

11/7/2004 1:30:57 PM

is pilot school unlocked like the driving school? if so, when?

11/7/2004 1:54:47 PM

i would also like to know exactly when/how to unlock the flight school??

11/7/2004 2:02:14 PM

You have to buy the abandoned airstrip.

11/7/2004 2:14:19 PM

the aircraft graveyard? if so at the moment it wont let me buy it... what mission do i have to do in order to buy it?

11/7/2004 2:46:47 PM

you buy it during the third toreno mission, I think

[Edited on November 7, 2004 at 3:06 PM. Reason : make sure you have an extra 80K sitting around]

11/7/2004 3:05:49 PM

flight school is pointless....
seriously, go hope the fence on the first island and avoid the missiles for a while, eventually they'll give you the pilots license

11/7/2004 3:52:00 PM

anyone seen the datel grand racing wheel for sale at best buy?

11/7/2004 7:08:28 PM

i fuckin love the attack chopper that thing can kill things like crazy

11/7/2004 10:31:02 PM

yo-
Where is the attack chopper at? Also everytime I go on the aircraft carrier there are no fighters there and i get a bunch of wanted stars. Is there anything I am doing wrong?

i need a way to burn a gameshark v3 or v4 disc or gameshark w/media player disc

[Edited on November 7, 2004 at 11:31 PM. Reason : or i need some gameshark v2 codes for san andreas]

11/7/2004 11:30:44 PM

****possible spoilers - skip past the next set of stars****





























so we're on the part after los desporatos. the riots are still going on and it says we still have to take over more territories before we can start the next mission. this is a pain in the ass. the cops are crazy strict and everyone is shooting each other. and this is even more difficult with the low probably of ballas appearing. anyone know how many territories we need before we can start the next sweet mission? we're assuming that we need a majority, but not all possible territories.























**** end spoiler ****

11/7/2004 11:39:39 PM

^^^ yeah, the military area is pretty much a no fly zone.

11/7/2004 11:41:45 PM

lemme say this


FUCK A GODDAMNED RC PLANE!!!

that is all

11/7/2004 11:42:09 PM

nothing22

I just got past that part. I had 19 and then got a phone call telling me to meet somewhere. I was so fuckin pissed at this part though. The game has been almost nonstop fun and then you have to do this shit. What a pain in the ass.

Yeah, do more missions until you get the one for the naval base.

11/7/2004 11:48:04 PM

im about to go gameshark on this game

to hell with doing the missions the "right way"

yeah- we came to the conclusion "this isn't really fun"

i'm glad we're about there though- we've got 17 right now

thanks for the input

Anyone know where to find a euros or a mesa? last two cars i need for the export boards

11/8/2004 12:23:22 AM

yeah, the mesa is parked beside a trailor just north of Angel Pine (across the road north of it, up a dirt driveway. There are 2 dirt driveways, but only one with a trailor...on the left).

The Euros can be found outside the Camel's Toe. Go to the door of the Camel's Toe, turn around, and it is just across the driveway.


BTW, Fuck this game and its long ass misisons. I am on the last one, done it twice now, and I have wasted about an hour of my time. I get fucked on some stupid shit the second time, and now I have to go back and do it all over again!!!

11/8/2004 12:58:58 AM

ty much

11/8/2004 1:07:10 AM

someone needs to tell rockstar to change their formula. I am getting tired of a fairly easy game with about 50 missions, having to redo 4 or 5 a few times, and then having a ridiculous final mission. I am going to say anything more about it except fuck that shit. I am tired of getting screwed on some stupid shit. Played it 4 times now, each time getting fucked on some little thing that happens.

Oh yeah, and why is it that when you have a couple of stars on you, everyone in the city goes MIA? I cant ever find a car when I am running from the cops. Rockstar needs to change it up a little and let you use whatever weapon you want in every mission, give you a fuckin decent car for the chase missions, and not make 20-30 minute long missions without checkpoints. It fuckin sucks to get 30 seconds from the end of one of those missions only to run into a telephone pole and lose, or some shit.

11/8/2004 12:39:04 PM

its been my experience with the other two GTA's that playing with a keyboard and mouse for aiming helps immensely (and usually means fewer repeats of missions)

i'd played both those games first on the PC, then on PS2 and it definitely took more tried on a ps2 cuz of the controller

[Edited on November 8, 2004 at 1:59 PM. Reason : ]

11/8/2004 1:59:05 PM

That shit wasn't that hard. Damn.

11/8/2004 2:03:03 PM

phew, finally beat it. Now all I have to do it go collect/spray everything and finish those damn Zero missions . The game was too much fun, except for the occasional shitty mission.

11/8/2004 8:33:56 PM

step 1- get tired of trying to do stupid missions
step 2- try weapons codes/exploring the rest of the map
step 3- fail at step 2
step 4- add gameshark to the equasion
step 5- within 30 minutes I am rocking twin sawed off shotguns in the casino

11/8/2004 10:04:39 PM

Step 6 Never get satisfaction of beating the game without cheats

11/8/2004 10:24:39 PM

who gives two shits about getting 100% completion rating

i dont even care about beating the game honestly i just like to ride around and fuck people up- after working and working on beating Vice City and recieving NO satisfaction whatsoever until I hit up some cheats and tweaked the game to my liking I learned my lesson

games with missions like this are boring as fuck to play correctly, DRIV3R is the same way

Max Payne, Hitman Contracts, now theres a game that made me think, that was fun. I stopped wasting time being frustrated with video games after Mario Brothers and shit, its just not worth it. I have things to do in real life.

11/8/2004 10:33:01 PM

i just like to ride around and fuck things up. the only point of the missions is to get to the point where i can explore the whole map without getting harrassed by the cops for being somewhere that i'm not supposed to be.

11/8/2004 10:36:08 PM

beat it a awhile ago




60 some hours of play



most of it obviously fuckin around though

11/8/2004 11:44:46 PM

what do you get when you get 100% on this one?

11/8/2004 11:47:42 PM

a sense of empty success

11/8/2004 11:49:44 PM

rhino and hunter I think

11/9/2004 12:22:38 AM

10% baby -- only been like 20 hrs

11/9/2004 12:45:39 AM

*conflicted*

Maybe if I press the Halo 2 disc and the GTA:SA disc together hard enough I can play both tonight.

I started grabbing more gang terroritory. It looks nice to have the whole map green.

11/9/2004 4:02:41 PM

man i hate when you try and start a gang war but the cops are there


its really stupid

11/9/2004 4:55:15 PM

the cops don't respond to killing gang members so i don't see what the problem is. unless you like to start blowing shit up with rocket launchers and killing innocent bystanders.

11/9/2004 9:50:39 PM

yeah getting the cops attention during a gang war is a bad idea

11/9/2004 9:59:38 PM

how far is it until you unlock the top right part of the map?

i'm tired as shit

11/10/2004 1:18:18 AM

how far is it....? what do you want us to tell you, after you do the missions to unlock the last part

11/10/2004 1:20:17 AM

sometimes they get involved and i know im only shooting at gang members

11/10/2004 1:50:44 AM

If they witness it they will step in, but they don't come running if they aren't in the area.

11/10/2004 1:53:11 AM

i just swam out of fisher's lagoon, and i'm running up a hill, and i hear these loud bangs... i look behind me, and a fucking bi-plane had just crashed into the side of the hill and was sliding towards me... i got out of the way and explosions kept going off until the big one that finally did it in... just wondering if anybody else has had a fucking plane crash into the ground right behind them

11/10/2004 4:04:30 AM

people near the world trade center

11/10/2004 4:12:32 AM

fucking shit it happened again

except this time i was standing on the side of a steep hill spawning vehicles and watching them tumble down the mountainside, and like a WWI fighter jet crashed above my head, bounced down, and blew up the five caddys sitting at the bottom of the mountain.

11/10/2004 4:16:03 AM

"like a WWI fighter jet"

Jet engines actually weren't used until very late WW2 and the Korean War, and still weren't used in any significant numbers until Vietnam in 1962.

just a little FYI
