Mainly missions for Ray (one of which went horribly wrong – for him at least) and then a mission for Ray’s friend Phil. After those, I spent ages messing around with jumps near the Acter industrial yards, and took Little Jacob and Roman out drinking and eating. 41 and a half hours in, it says. Blimey.
Aside from one mission for Bernie (chasing Russians on a boat), today’s play was spent almost entirely trying to replicate this. It took ages to find the swings from the video, and although I found other swings elsewhere, I couldn’t make my car to anything on them. Finally found the set shown, and had a merry time glitching cars into oblivion. I didn’t get anything amazing out of it – certainly no huge launches like the video – but I …
Tada! I scanned some covers in 🙂 As for today’s play… I found Bernie, killed some people for him, did a few more jobs for Ray, and spent ages trying to get the achievement for blowing up 10 vehicles in 10 seconds. In the end, my wife’s suggestion of blocking up a tunnel and filling it with cars was the winner, as not only was it easy to get the cars piled up, but the police didn’t see what I …
Didn’t complete any more missions this go, but did take Roman, Little Jacob and Carmen all out. I then nicked the helicopter from near my Alderney house and flew under all the bridges to get the associated achievement.
Played this loads today. Too much to go into everything, though. Completed another couple of missions for Packie, some for Ray, and some for Gerry and whatever the other Irish brother is. Then I had another choice of two people to kill, and so chose the one I hated the most (who probably deserved it) then went to his funeral. WHich seemed a bit wrong. Anyway, I then kidnapped some mob daughter, and found some more jumps.
Oh – I forgot this! GTA Glitch WatchSome great ones today. First up was when I was chasing after *spoiler* to kill him. I cornered him in an alley, and when I shot him, he collapsed and his head and top half of his body fell through a wall. He dropped his gun, but it too was “in” the wall (I could see the red glow, but not the gun). I was driving across the main bridge from Broker to …
After making the difficult decision on whether to kill *spoiler* or *spoiler*, I ended up killing both via saving and reloading. My first choice (who was the one you meet earlier in the game than the other) was the one I stuck with. I got a new safehouse for my trouble. Then I spent the best part of three hours attempting the same mission over and over and over and over again. “Three Leaf Clover”. You have to rob a …
After doing another mission for Packie, and then one for Ray, I was out of missions. Except one: the Dwayne one I can’t do. Or at least, I couldn’t do before, but on my first attempt today I managed it easily. The police didn’t turn up in the club, which really helped. Hurrah! I then celebrated by smashing up lots of cars, and then went looking for nice cars to park outside my safehouse.
I really should get round to scanning more boxes in… Anyway. Played a bit of this this evening, and I’m running out of open mission and am going to have to return to the kill-the-club-owners one for Dwayne soon, which I’m not looking forward to as it was hard. I did, however, complete another mission for Francis. Then he went nuts at me because I spared the life of the guy I was supposed to kill. Tch.
Epic mission today – chase a helicopter, nick it when it lands, then fly it off somewhere. Then, a little later, use it again with Jacob in the passenger seat armed with a rocket launcher, and chase another helicopter and take it down. Amazing! Also took Carmen on a date. Sadly, the helicopter I pulled up to her house in vanished when she came out the house (GTA Glitch Watch!) so I had to nick a car. Took her to …
Completed a couple of missions for the Paper Company man, then went and stole a a helicopter and flew over to the island I’ve not unlocked yet. That gave me an instant 6-star rating, which I held onto for ages gaining me the “One Man Army” achievement. Then I went on a date with Carmen, and after that tried to see how many cars I could blow up in one go. None, it seems. Bah.
Gah. I’m stuck. I spent ages trying the mission for Dwayne where you have to go to the strip club and kill the managers. I just can’t do it. Even with full health, body armour, and a pile of weapons, I still get mown down. There’s nowhere to stand where you’re not vulnerable – even if you find cover someone will come up behind you. Or the police will turn up. So I gave up on that and nicked a …
A couple more missions for Playboy X today, and he gave me a new Whiz phone. Woo! Now I can have exciting themes and stuff for it. And it has a camera! Shame I can’t keep the photos I take with it. I then met Dwayne, and completed a mission for him. And I drove round the island in the middle of the map a lot, and then took Little Jacob to see Ricky Gervais in a comedy club. He …
Quite a bit more play today. In no particular order, I had an encounter with Dimitri, have a new safehouse in Bohan, met and helped Elizabeta, met Playboy X and had a gunfight with a load of cops with him, and have now unlocked the next island. Completed my first “vigilante” mission too, using the computer onboard a police car I, er, borrowed. And basically just spent ages doing nothing much bar explore and cause trouble. No glitches today either. …
Lots (and lots) of play on this today. It’s one of those games where I can’t really explain too much about what I’m doing in case I spoil anything, as far as the main storyline goes anyway. I did a few missions for Mikhail, completing his bit of the story, a couple of jobs for Little Jacob (whose accent is bloody amazing), and a couple of jobs for Brucie. Also dated Michelle a couple more times and, er, “made it” …
