Heh, I was fucking around with GTA:SA over the weekend. You guys wanna try something fun?

I took the P51 from the desert airstrip and tried landing on the aircraft carrier with it. Well, I landed once, turned around, and took off again. Unfortunately that pissed off the carrier and it started launching it's Harrier jets after me. I was dogfighting the Harriers over SF, flying down low and in between the buildings trying to lose them. I held them off for about 5 minutes but eventually a missile got me right after I went under a bridge. The funny thing was I had the aircraft carrier right in my sights and I was losing control of the plane. So I decided to Kamikaze right into the bridge of the carrier.

I bailed right before the plane hit and ended up swimming in the water. Swam to the docks, got out of the water, shot a few FBI guys, managed to jack a car, pick up a couple of stars and got into the Pay n' Spray. And lived!!! That was too awesome.
 
I don't play it when my kids are here, so I can only play every other week. :(


Are you supposed to keep doing the "missions"? Or can you just go back there whenever you want?

My missions are on hold right now because i'm trying to take over the city with my gang? is that what I'm supposed to be doing?

Does doing the missions get you more areas and vehicles?

OK, for that kind of shit we need you to hook up a VCR or something and record the sequence. It's USELESS WITHOUT PICS!!! :mad

Bad Dad: As you take over territory, you'll gain respect. This increases the number of 'homeboys' you can recruit to go out with you and help you out on missions or on drive-by's. You don't have to do this... but I think there's a money angle in it as well (territories you 'conquer' will result in income left in front of your house in tribute.) Some of the side missions have benefits - such as if you complete all the courier missions for the mini-mart downtown, you'll end up 'owning' the business and you'll get income from it. Complete all the firefighter levels and you become fireproof - complete the ambulance levels and you get a permanent health boost... things like that.

However... you have to complete all the storyline missions in order to progress in the game. For example, if you don't get to (and complete) the House Party mission, you'll not get to the point where you can leave Los Santos without getting shot on sight. Also certain things don't open up until you complete certain storylines - you won't open up the girlfriends feature until you meet the first girlfriend (she's in a house you're recruited to torch -- and then you have to save her....) Ammo Nation doesn't open up until you get to the mission that introduces it, etc etc.


One gripe - this game CRIES OUT to have the Propellerheads "Take California" on one of the radio stations.... or Leftfield's "Open Up" (Burn Hollywood Burn!!)

got the girlfriend.


got ammu-nation.


so, do you just continue driving up to the other guys and continuing the missions? i HAVE to keep helping that loser become a rapper?
 
Yah pretty much. If you rescued what's-her-name then you've probably opened up the donut shop for missions too (that's where the two dirty cops hang out.)
 
:laughing

Marco, sounds like you're in the exact same place I am. I just did the house party and took over one territory. Then wne on a date and that's when I got attacked and she got pinned and I tried to "get some." ;)
 
Dammit, I'm hung up on the mission where I gotta ride bitch on Smoke's bike.

So instead I unlocked the 'nitro cabs' and am working on being the pimpmeister.

plus I've used the idea above to get into the airport and steal some flight time. So far I've actually managed to land a few times.

Of course the adage 'any landing you can walk away from' also works...

:toothless

I've been on 8 dates with her and it keeps saying "maybe this is the night", then she gets out and goes in her house. :mad So I leave and go get hookers every time.. :laughing


and the bitch always wants to do drive by's in front of her house???!!
 
ok, this is hella sweet.


jack a BUS.


recruit a bunch of gangbangers.


roll around like the Turnbull AC's.


(extra points if someone knows where that is from)


Cool for rolling into hostile territory and unloading like 15 guys to jack some mo' turf!
 
I was dismayed to find that you can only fit three of your homeboys into a winnebago... and the dune buggy only allows ONE (WTF?)

gonna have to try that bus idea...



oh man, discovered something hella funny here. I've got to the point where I'm going out with the gangbanger chick, right? Anyways, in between dates I got busted by the cops, tagged a wall right in front of one (oops!). and I go to scoping ot the police station and found a PURPLE DILDO in the shower of all places.... (Anti, were you in on the game design, here?)


So I whipped it out on the next date, expected to get slapped, but noo... she LIKED it! thought it was the bestest gift ever... :wtf

Wait until you meet Millie (your Las Vegas gf), she's an integral part of the story so you gotta date her, but she's got some weird tastes.
 
is it necessary to continue dating the gangsta chick?

she's irritating. and I aint gettin none.

pick her up. game says pick a place, before I leave the corner where her house is she's shooting at people.


and what the hell do you do with the flowers that I keep finding? I tried to use it on her and it said I was beating her?
 
yer not supposed to hit her with the flowers....


(altho' it IS funny as hell to beat someone's ass with a bouquet!)
 
i know that now, but WHAT are you supposed to do with them?
 
she took the dildo... wait, that didn't sound right.. she ACCEPTED... no that isn't it either... oh hell, we're talking about a double-ended dong here; I guess there's no right way to say your girl liked it..

[EDIT] Marco, you gotta wait until she's next to ya, and it'll prompt "L1 to give her a gift" -- you press it, he tucks the gift behind his back, and then surprises her with it... she takes it, gets all mushy, and you then get to press L1 to kiss her.

I got further with the dildo and two bouquets than I did with just taking her down the street to cluckin' bell or letting her shoot at passerby... a LOT further... "CJ got LAID... booyah!"

fuck that ho', I'm on to Catalina up in the hills now!!! :laughing




wtf is up with this anyways? Now im in BFE and it takes like 10 minutes to drive anywhere?

This part of the game sucks ass.
 
I'm about to get to that point, myself. One more mission...

(the car chase sequence in Reuniting the Families was seriously wack -- took me a whole lotta tries to get thru it...)

Just did that one last night. First try! :cool The next mission isn't really a mission. it's a long movie sequence where Tenpenny and the other cop (chris penn) kick you out of Los Santos. My dog hit the tray open right in the middle of it and I hadn't saved yet. I closed the tray and it took about a minute for it to start playing again. Freaked me out. Thought I lost everything. Glad I didn't.
