Wierd you say that as i had a go last nite, first real go for ages as i used to hate the missions so much, and i pissed em all!
Took 3 goes to do the air-raid one, and only failed the 2nd time as it got dark and i couldnt see the planes
Took 3 goes to do the kill the delivery peoples one, 2nd time i ran out of fuel JUST before i touched down which made me VERY angry

Did 3rd mission 1st go, its bizarre but not too hard, only thing to do is destroy the tanks before Z can get there, ignore what he tells you to do at first, as if he cant get near the tanks he cant die.

Steve, yer, agree, I done it on my second attempt, first one for me got really sunny like annoying sunset light and i just couldn't see em, i was doing soooo well as well! done it in the end, think will have a blast at the courier one again tonight, they seem so far away tho, any tips? I tried going high and pressing square to ease off the gas but this tactic really dont seem to work cos it cains the fuel when u take off again

Not loads, but you not right at the end, San Andreas riots mate, and they QUALITY

Oh hang on, make it 4 times i did the air-raid
I tried it at night with the night-vision goggles on, BAD idea

I "heard" that driving the plane along the ground saves fuel, but i didnt bother as too inpatient
I didnt notice any difference in fuel between flat out n easing off, so went flat out.
I find that flying low thru the streets is quicker than climbing up to go above buildings, unless its a really big building thatl take for ever to get past.
When you go to kill em, land by them and go right up to them (from the front is better but whatever), THEN fire, as soon as you fire they start to run, but if you close enoguh youl blow em up before they can get anywhere.
If they run youl probly fail as youl be wasting time and the fuel situation is VERY close.
Go for the bike nearest you first, then turn right and right again and go head on vs the van, then left to the other van, then right across town to the 2nd bike, then the final van, then home.
Keep checking the map too, and use the waypoint marker thing, as they dont always take the same route so check all the time as last thing u need is to go the wrong way as like i said, the fuel thing is dead close on this mission.
Every time i failed i was nearly home

OK! How on earth do you get the Apaches? I need one to do the Vigilante missions.

They called "hunters" i think.

They allegedly appear at the abandoned airfield and at San Fiero naval base, but they not there.

there gotta be a way to get em without getting gold on all flying test missions, or somthing equally impossible...

I used to go- nearest van, nearest bike, next nearest van, last bike, last van.

but i realised you save time if you go for the bike first as the van drives towards you then.

and then i jus go for whatevers closest, worked for me, jus takes some quick killing n skillfull flying

Ive worked out a way of getting the hunter (ie apache) in the game without getting all gold medals on the flying school...

Go to the airport where there the fllying "races", start the one where you use the apache, and then just fly back to that airport, get out n fail, and the apaches will still be there
Then you can do the vigilante missions in it, they piece of piss, and fun too, once u hit level 12 you get mega armour, 150% (not like its much use to me now ive done everything ), but you may as well carry on as you make loads of money.

I started doing taking the photos, its easy actually, just go round looking for "sights" (fancy buildings, views, landmarks, etc) get the camea out n look, if its a thing u need to take a pic of youl see a spinning camera icon in the camera view (might need to zoom in on it), and jus take the pic. I found 11pics in about 30mins but was DEATHLY boring so i stopped.

Get 50k for completing the freight train missions too, there only 2 of em, and they VERY easy. Just go flat out all the time but not above 45, and just slam on the brakes when distance gets to 300 or a lil less. Easy money.

Im 92% complete now, but now there fuck all worth doing

Done Los desperados, looking at the missions left, this last sweet one is the finale it seems, as we are going after Big Smoke. Can't do it yet, keeps saying I need more territory. I have taken over a bit more but not 2 worried for now as I have gone back to the last island and trying to do the other mission by getting that card? from that other bitch. Can;t get her home, although put them gimp suit on and I get a call from her saying come over

Not much left now, start doing all the races / train / lorry missions etc etc to put the completion number up.

I had full respect from before i left the 1st island, think it was cause i took all the terrortorys striaght away (waste of my time )

Heist mission is piss easy aint it, i was suprised...

That killing big smoke mission i didnt like, did it first go, but didnt like it, can see it being REALLY frustrating if you failed it.

You need over 35% of territorys. Check your game stat for the %

Every fu*king time i arrive at that girls house (the one for the passcard), she is NEVER in, doing my head in

You dont need to turn up in any car, and you dont need the dildo.

I used to turn up on BMXs, on foot, whatever, makes no odds.

I got 100% of the terrortorys and 94% of the game done, literally just tags etc left, its well peaceful, fookin boring now, so PS2 is back in cupboard

Cheers mate, will have to check that

Every fu*king time i arrive at that girls house (the one for the passcard), she is NEVER in, doing my head in
This fooked me off too, in the end, I bought a bit of property as close to her place as I could (done the trip so many times I memorized the route to and from now and it was piss doing it this way) It wern't till I got the inital phone call from her to say come over, then she was nearly always there (at most of the times posted above) and I always turned up in a sports car, so don't know if Steve's theory is right.

I used to go to the house at whatever time of day, just leave him standing there on foot facing the house, when it hit mid-day or whatever, the red mission circle thing appears, job done.

Id just read a magazine or eat my dinner or whatever while waiting, dont take long

i can recruit 1 gang member, but he always runs off or gets shot
before i get another 1.......

i presume you need to get at least 2 gang members to get the next
part of the mission?

Yes mate you need two, annoying that mission, and harder than some of the later missions I found! I just completed the game (missions) woooooo what a final mission that one is! Glad I done it first time, couldn't be doing that again, was about 20 minutes long!

Like the ending (where he ends up)

The tiny strip of kerb? Yup thats a RIGHT wanker as its tiny and never anyone around. Best bet is to stand in the road as they more often in cars, and kick off that way.

Have you got ALL the vato's terrortorys yet? Theres 1 which i took AGES to find...

Gutted

So, where do you restart? the start of te mission?!

Glad I done it first time. It was close mind, just started ticking down the annoying 30 seconds to go noise! and then got to the door and cutscene btw, you still have another big bit of the mission to do after that! (Tenpenny) was pretty tricky, but not tooo bad

Just printed of a 40 page! FAQ/Walkthrough that has all the locations of the tags/horse shoes/oysters/import/exports - I think you have to have ALOT of time on your hands to be bothered to do all these, but what the heck, if I get that bored i'll do em

Adam, i have some maps now, about 1.5meg each, with all that stuff on them.

Import/Export stuff is "sort of" fun and lots of cash.

But trust me, doing the photos is incredibly boring, i did 11 and no joke, was drifting off

Once you got all the terrortory and done all the missions there no danger left in the game

Get a million quid for doing ALL the races (well all that are shown on map) which is good, the cross country races i love, esp on bikes, im ace with em.

Truckings ok fun, Quarry is booring, Bloodrings easy, the scrambler thing in the arena is dead hard, same as the racing.

The downhill mountain bike racing you can find at the top of the giant mountain is a good crack, but not easy, done the 1st one but 2nd i cant.

Train driver missions are piss so may as well do em.

Vigilante missions are easy with the Apache.

Pimpings easy

Fire n Ambulance ones i cant complete all of em.

Feck all left for me to do really thats fun
