Tobbe Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 "Stores Knocked Off"... what is that? How do I do it? :s Finding all packages is possible without a guide, but I don't feel like playing this game for 12 hours/day for a couple of months just looking for them. I've found 16 out of 100.

I've found 16 out of 100. there are stores dotted around that you can rob. just run in and point yer gun at them, the longer you do, the more money you get. also the more stars you get :) you can shoot the cashier or just take the money and run :devil: :devil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intelligen Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 flying the mini heli's are HARD, i found it so much easier on the ps2 controller but driving cars and shooting guns were hard on ps2 and easy on PC. But i struggled through that mini helicopter part. Took me 4 tries to get it perfect with like 20 secs to spare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobbe Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 The "Target" function doesn't work for me, so I can't point the gun at them. It works when I use a sniper rifle, but not when I hold a gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schmoove Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 You move the mouse.. please tell me you are kidding. Well if I just point the gun to the clerk nothing really happens. Plus I heard of some kind of 'target' button in the PS2 version of the game...... So basicly I can point the gun at anyone I want, but they don't hand me the cash you see :) Thanks for thinking that I'm a complete moron... really appreciate it :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can never tell if its internet sarcasm. I see what you mean now though. You cant rob Ammunation because the guy has a gun, but the rest you can. Just get the guy in your crosshairs.

FudgeMonkey Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 (edited) How do I point the gun without pulling the trigger??? Is there a 'Point gun' button? thought that would be comming next ;) it's different to the PS2 version in that the PS2 has a "Target enemy" button which when pressed brings up a target reticule around the person you target and Tommy points his gun at them. However the PC version doesn't seem to do this, instead there is a "target" button but it's for when you have the sniper or heavy machine gun, it basically switches to first person so you can aim. For robberies i find that if you just stand infront of the person at the checkout and aim at them it'll work, you don't need to use first person, any gun will work just aim yer round targeting thingy at them. The money will start appearing at the checkout, if you're close to the checkout you'll collect the money automatically as it'll spawn on you. But be warned that if you take the reticule off the clerk he'll sound the alarm and you'll get no more cash out of him ;) Best one i found to start off with is the one on the western island by the police station on the main road because it's right near a Pay & Spray, perfect for escaping to ;) how do you rob someone?...is it a mission thing or can you do it on your 'own time'..? you can do it when you want, and as many times as you want, the longer you aim at the clerk they more money & the more wanted levels you will get. there are various stores dotted around the game, pharmacies are the most common i think Edited May 29, 2003 by FudgeMonkey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nosocks Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 can't wait to get this game. i used to make maps for the original GTA, and GTA London, and i'm gonna give Vice City maps a go. It makes the game a bit more interesting once you complete it, because you can make your own missions and cars and pretty much everything you can change.

Tobbe Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 I have all the hidden packages and I have robbed those 15 stores. Now I only have the jumps and the rampage things left. The jumps will take ages and I will keep failing the rampages. The rest is just fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m0fo Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 the worst missions are the vigilante, paramedic and firefighter missions where u have to get pass to level 12.... good luck with those... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobbe Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 the worst missions are the vigilante, paramedic and firefighter missions where u have to get pass to level 12.... good luck with those... For Vigilante, take the Hunter ("Apache")... it's easy. :) Finish all the main missions and you will find one at the military base north of the airport. Or if you have found the 100 hidden packages then you can find one on the helipad on Ocean Beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
