Adam, i got hitman rating now on every gun, GET it, hitman rating makes you much better with the guns, and with the pistols and sawnoff shotgun it lets you fire 2 guns at once, once in each hand.

Casinos- Just keep basing money in the fruitys, i use the 50dollar a go ones, just luck but keep putting cash in and it usualy pays out far more than you put in.

Blackjack is easy to make cash on.

Ive worked out a "thing" with roulette too and i make loads on that now

Poker i have no clue tho

And same with the wheel of fortune thing, tho i think its gonna be like roulette, il figure out some tactics n suddenyl start raking the cash in.

I got fuck all to do with my cash anyhow, over a mill and own every bloody property and expensive item of clothing etc on the game

BTW if anyones trying to figure out like i was where the last Vatos terrortory is, its the fookin harbour at the very top left of the game
They total pussys up there tho, the "gang war" was, instead of the usual 3 waves of AK weilding nutters, just 1 wave of 2 unarmed men and a dude with a pistol I had a Desert Eagle on me and i got a Hitman rating on it so i just casualy strolled up and blew their heads clean off before the one who actually had a gun even fired a shot, terrortory mine-- 100%

Think it says i now own 54 terrortorys now, and 100%.

Somthing else tho, 1st island, far left of the beach by the lighthouse, doesnt seem to belong to anybody (tho the ballas own the other bits of the beach), but now n again there is ballas there, start a gang war there and win and its yours as well.
I wondeer if theres more "neutral" ones like that, the bottom right bit of the map is a light greeny yellow and ive certainly not took it over, but it says i own 100% of the terrortory, so maybe it another neautral one? 55 seems a more round number too. NEVER seen any Vatos or anyone there to kill tho

I heard you mention this before, sounds shit hot! I have recently had the "combat" shotgun available so been upping my rating with that badboy Still prefer the "SMG" and I am lethal with it

Casinos- Just keep basing money in the fruitys, i use the 50dollar a go ones, just luck but keep putting cash in and it usualy pays out far more than you put in.
I been on the $20 a go ones, put a couple hundred in, fook all, seems shite, over and over it would be gold bar.....gold bar....then miss gold bar by one turn

I got fuck all to do with my cash anyhow, over a mill and own every bloody property and expensive item of clothing etc on the game
Ive only got about $150K Don't need no more, haven't been spending it on modding cars n shit, only when I need to buy property, i.e the airfield for $80K took the funds down a bit. Still aint used money cheats or any for that matter

I refuse to cheat as it shows up on the stats screen how many cheat codes you put in (first thing i tried once story mode was complete), and i only presume itd bring your score thing down (mines on just under 7000 "shooter"), bit over 75% complete now.

Do you have to buy the airfield? Im sure i completed one of the missions and it was just given to me? Maybe not

OK, I need a bit of help (well just need to confirm something)

I am on the mission where you have to fly out to the dam and obviously jump out of the old plane.....now I can fly out there but there is no "red marker" to fly into to trigger a cut scene or anything, and I cant seem to jump out of the plane no matter what i try. One thing, I don't currently have a parachute spare and you dont seem to get one when doing the mission Is this the problem? Or am I missing something else here?

Cheers

Cheers paul! Had another blast on the game and got em all now, job done. The car export missions are the biggest single moneymaker on the game, most times you make 20k+ per car, more than you make on the missions.

ALSO found another girlfriend, the bird benporter was on about on the page before i couldnt find, but this piece i found outside the sherrifs office at San Quadjfghlkjsvd (i cant remember), the place nearly top left of map, top left is the place with the marina, next lil village across from there.
She works at the pig station so you pick her up from there too.

Think there 2 or 3 more tho still

oh yea! i remember that now! il have to go back n see if she there now...

thats funny you say that cause....

until i cleared the story part of the game i was keeping CJs fat at minimum or near enough as thought that was best, and since i cleared it i been experermenting a bit with his fatness, and he was up to halfway up the fat bar when i met this piece...

goes out on one date, sorted, jus tried to go out on a 2nd date and she comes out n tells me im to skinny n to come back when im bigger!

so i went to the chicken place, ate 11 large meals one after each other (Try and east 12 and you throw up ) and now my fat is on maximum hes this big fat shit and a warning flashed up saying i gotta lose weight or risk giving CJ a heart attack
But i went back n she would date me as this fat bloke, so il carry on till she 100%, then TRY n give CJ a heart attack Maybe he will when he nails her

*Boing* - Let's bring this back to the top for all of you still playing GTA OK, done a few more missions now, got passed the one where you take the chopper and carry the van away, that was pretty cool, last one I done was to take the jumpjet from the navy boat for torrino. Peice of piss really, can get straight in and out within 30 seconds really, then taking the other planes / boats out was piss (when i eventually worked out how to fly / hover the thing ) nice 50K for it too, and get to keep the chopper / plane anyway..... only have the "CJ" missions available to me (Madd Dogg Mansion) Woozie called to say if i had done that bird yet to get the pass card... I keep going to that sex crazed bitche's house but she is never there Just had a thought, do I need to put the gimp outfit on for her to be there? ?

No mate, go there at midday on the dot, then she there.

I used to jus leave the game running standing outside her yard while doing other shit till midday to sort that out.

No gimp suit required either.

The bird who works at the pig station im doing now, she DID come out at midnight every night, but now she dont

And the other bird, who i pulled at the driving test place, she owns a garage, but ive no idea when she appears...

86% of the game done now, even tho no RC missions done, no photos took, hardly any tags, horseshoes, oysters, or unique jumps, done, but almost everythnig else now it seems.

Done all the flying "races" some are well hard until you got maximum flying skill, but you can do it slow as u like i think and still pass, just get to the end, but i kept trying to do em dead quick.

The mountain bike downhill racing from the massive mountain is not easy tho, even tho i got maximum pushbike skill, im only on the 2nd race, usualy leading by halfway down, but always manage to fuck it up somehow

Where can you steal an Apache from? (i dunno what they called on the game) I cant find any, justn harriers, but i want an Apache to do the Vigilante missions in...

I remembered this as IIRC (Can't be arsed to look) Steve mentioned this, however seems crap cos I have tried this, will be there at 12, dead and nothing.... rah!

Any ideas?I want WangCars!!!!
I had that from when on the second island I ain't done no import / export yet

Oh, and I had a go at the RC missions again, started doing well, was getting them all and even the computer geek said "dont be cocky CJ" or something which he never said before, then when they all started coming it went to shit and I still couldn't do it, impossible springs to mind!?

The car list is just a bit futher down the dock on a sign, opposite the big ship, i thought you could buy Wang cars before that anyhow? Once you done all the missions for your garage (ie opposite wang cars)?

The bike school in on the final island (ie the casino one), as is the boat school (well thats on far top left of map)
