CONFESS! weird / disturbing stuff do you do in GTA4

[inertianinja]

for example,

i shoot anyone that litters.
i carjack and run over anyone driving a hummer with an american flag
i start a fistfight with anyone that yells during a cell phone call.
i shoot the tires of other cars in street races.
when i'm parking, i always handbrake drift at full speed smashing into who or whatever is on the sidewalk at the time (see: Ace Ventura "liiike a glove!")

and

when i'm in algonquin by the museum where the artists have all their portraits on display, i walk over and push all the art onto the ground because it's crappy.


because i'm alpha, bro.

[damnedeyez]

I call Roman for a free cab, then at the end of the trip, I pull the driver out and take great pleasure in ending him.

I tend to aim the car at any bike in the vicinity.

If I steal a car and the passenger doesn't get out, I drive as fast as I can, jump as much as I can and into as much oncoming traffic as I can.


...because I'm disturbed, 'brah'

[bcool]

when on a date, I like to see how much she'll endure

I stop people on the street and see if they can come up with a good reason for not to execute them.

there may have also been a 'strip club massacre'

because I'm genetically different bro

[dolson]

i don't even have GTAIV

because I'm in the minority, bro

[neverendingwhitelights]

I stalked someone for a good half hour as they just wandered aimlessly around the streets, then killed them as they went down a dark alley. That's what happens...

One major rule with me, is if anybody runs me over, they immediately get to say hello to a rocket launcher.

If I'm just walking and someone says something derogatory to me, they are bound to be shot dead for it.

Pushing people that are carrying shopping bags, and then laughing that they don't even pick it back up, they just keep walking.

If a guy and girl are out on a date, I will invariably shoot the dude. Then gun down the girl because she ran away from me when I was only trying to save her from him.

Go into an internet cafe and shotgun everyone. One time the whole place was filled with rabbis for some odd reason and I found that very odd.

I also like to set something up with Brucie, then shoot him dead. He just calls a few minutes later saying pick me up from the hospital, then I take him home, like I didn't shoot him.

Ummm... smashing headfirst into walls or oncoming traffic at full speed and watch Niko go flying. Very fun.

One more thing, sometimes right after a mission ends, a character will drive off and leave Niko alone. I like to pull out the sniper rifle or rocket launcher and shoot at their car, to see if I can kill them. You can also try and spawn a car with the cheats, chase after them, cut them off and blow them up. Which I may or may not do anytime I get the chance.

[radzack]

I find myself sniping off heads from rooftops...can't get enough of it..

because i'm acuitous, brrrrahhhh

[Ashlad]

1. Pick up hooker
2. Pay $70 for the service
3. Shoot her in the back with a shotgun after leaving car.
4. Pick up dropped hooker income
:D

[Drift]

Get Helicopter then fly to a great sniper point. From there I watch people and Snipe out there legs and watch them try and run off.

I always put and extra bullet in a persons head.

Today I actually killed a guy then put enough bullets in him to move the body across the street.

Dial 911 to kill the ambulance drivers. Then kill the other drivers that come to help them.

My favorite thing is jumping from high buildings. People in multiplayer might have seen some of this. I have jumped off every major building as well as fly a copter up as high as I can then eject. First into water then to the hard pavement.

WOW I really am a mess huh. Blame the games haha.

[fashionDR]

When sprinting down the street, I like to push the attack button as I bump into anyone carrying a giant coffee so Nico will shove them over, sending their soy-mocha-latte-frappucino flying.

I like to punch people in the face, and then run up to the police so they get arrested for retaliating.

If the owner of the car I just jacked tries to get back in, I'll either;
-wait until they're almost at the door, then take off a few yards down the street, rinse and repeat, or;
-wait until they grab the door handle and then take off dragging them down the street.

Drive a firetruck down the street and blast hookers with the hose because they look like they need a wash.

I once chased a pedestrian for about 20 minutes with a forklift.

I once threw a bunch of grenades into the hospital waiting room, I figured they were all on their way out anyway.

Three words; Helicopter blade massacre...

If I feel Nico deserves a reward, I'll go to a strip club and get 3 lap dances in a row, he really enjoys that.


That's just how I roll, bro...

[om3rta]

I like to jack semi's and smash into cars head on to see people fly through the windsheild.

I like to keep beating cops after they fall down.

Shooting the passenger of a car in the head and driving around.

[BredrenisedP]

I once threw a bunch of grenades into the hospital waiting room, I figured they were all on their way out anyway.

That's just how I roll, bro...

Now I'm a little worried!

Epic win with the forklift :D

I get a sick laugh whenever I kills a driver and their slumped over head keeps the horn going, it also happens when you hit a car a high-speed.

I've called Dwayne's backup and taken them on a helicopter ride around the city..ya know..because thugs need a break now and again.

Continue to shoot corpses so they end up in interesting positions/across the street/in a body of water (i've gotten good at lining up cops right so when I shoot, they fall into the water).

Step 1: Jack some busses
Step 2: Uses busses as roadblock
Step 3: Wait for pile-up
Step 4: Grenade
???
Step 5: PROFIT!...

Shoot peds in the legs with shotgun

Shotgun to the head...20 times

Shoot a burning ped/cop into a body of water to put them out

Call 911 for the ambulance to fix me up, shoot paramedic to get cash back

Make the fat security guards chase after me to get them to exercise

[kickarse]

This is a disturbing thread, brothers. :{|

All I have is the old DOS GTA where it's so pixelated you don't know what's going on. I suppose if I had GTA4 that I'd be doing the same stupid stuff you'd never think of in Real Life (TM).

I'm just happy you sick people have a place to vent your pent up frustrations.

:)

[GI_Josh]

Three words; Helicopter blade massacre...


My friend came over to check out GTA for the first time, and I showed him the helicopters, and within 2 minutes that is exactly what he was doing as well....he ended the Massacre in central park, where he went down to kill someone with the blades, missed, and the blades hit the ground and broke. When he hopped out of the copter, the dude that almost just died tried to fight him.

As for me, I enjoy going into restaurants and murdering everyone there. That diner just around the corner from your first safehouse was fun to do that to.

[masherscf]

If I feel Nico deserves a reward, I'll go to a strip club and get 3 lap dances in a row, he really enjoys that.


They spent a lot of time perfecting the lap dance models and animation. It would sort of be rude not to appreciate the craftsmanship.

[inertianinja]

i don't know why they bother making the hookers / lap dances cost money, especially when you can make all the money back by just running people over.



on second thought, it makes sense. paying for it keeps that little feeling of loserdom, like, yea - i have to pay to get it.

[siraim]

Wow.. this thread is terribly disturbing.

That being said:

- More than a few strip club massacres.
- Taking every opportunity to knock down motorcyclists
- base jumping without the parachute off tall buildings
- Traffic Jams + grenades = tons of fun.
- Flinging Niko through windshields.

[damnedeyez]

yay, Pigeon Slaughter!



Hmm, some of you mentioned things I do but hadn't thought of when I posted.


I want to find the smallest body of water I can and see if I can jump into it from a helicopter at max height...

[deegraww]

I've been searching for the flying rats. but i've also only played the story mode haven't really done any of this stuff though it sounds like that's how i'll be spending my night tonight.

[esophagus]

If a guy and girl are out on a date, I will invariably shoot the dude. Then gun down the girl because she ran away from me when I was only trying to save her from him.This sounds like an episode of Law and Order. Creeeeepy.

[inertianinja]

i have shot at and bombed the algonquin police headquarters, trying to start something.

they never come out to fight me, i assume because i'm so alpha and genetically superior (brucie said so)

[masherscf]

Where does Carmen like to eat? I'm getting tired of getting drunk with her.

[dawtcalm]

* search out Armored Bank Trucks, blowing them up with a grenade and profiting.
* Insane Jumps
* getting as many cop cars as possible to chase me around the beach.
* Getting in fist fights with people and trying to push them into crevases of the buildings, it looks funny when they they slump into a corner but can't fall down.
* Full speed jumps at the airport
* Get my car on the train tracks (from the bridges) and drive around the rail system.
* Watch TV

[damnedeyez]

Where does Carmen like to eat? I'm getting tired of getting drunk with her.

Anywhere, actually...just remember that everytime you take a girlfriend someplace, their views of that particular location drop by 5. I usually take her to the Burger place nearby...she likes the strip club too. All of the girlfriends like shows.




Anyone else run around the prison? it's empty in multiplayer, but cops and convicts in the single (and no wanted level...though the Embassy will get you 4 stars if you stick around there.)

[iccanui]

I run over every cop in sight

I like to pin people against the wall then when i back up and they double over and start to get up, i gas it and drive them into the wall again.

I call michelle more then i should im sure, but lately i been thinking i should end her cause she is getting pushy with those questions ! ( dont spoil anything for me if she is a narc or something please )

Executing that bald headed prick who kept messing with roman in the beginning was one of the most satisfying moments in recent gaming that i can remember.




But its all good for I and I, One love... respect.

[radzack]

best thread ever

[GoNZooo]

I've spent a fair amount of time stalking people and finding opportunities to kick their ass and steal their money. I've been trying to identify gangs to start fights with one of them so I can have a brawl with all of them.

Started doing that when one guy I was stalking and ended up mugging apparently was wearing some kind of gang outfit (some kind of cuban gang, I think) and one of his compadres, who was wearing a similar outfit, rolled up in a car and came at me trying to stab me.

[siraim]

best thread ever

Could not agree more.. this thread has provided me an endless supply of fun things to do next time I wander into Liberty City.

[wakuseibaka]

Since I don't own the game, I play it at a friends house so I just try to cause as much horrible destruction as I can with the cars and try to send Niko flying as far as he can go. I once launched a rocket at a gas pump and Niko flew to the roof of the building across the street.

I also go to Cluckin' Bell and slowly walk to the front. Stop. Look at the employee. Slowly walk behind the counter. And beat the bitch with a baseball bat. Then everyone else in the place.

And kamikaze the hospital after just coming from there. I just hold the grenade and run inside and kill whoever is in the main lobby yet they always let you back in. I also like flying as high as I can in the helicopter and bail just to watch the fall. Though I always want him to freaking explode when he hits the ground.

I also took Michelle out on a date with a helicopter and just bailed to see her crash but I died too soon.

I wish there was instant-replay in this game.

[rabidbadger]

What ever happened to Monopoly, Risk and Scrabble?

[masherscf]

What ever happened to Monopoly, Risk and Scrabble?

There are crime monopolies, lots of risk, but not much scrabbling in GTA4.

[esophagus]

What ever happened to Monopoly, Risk and Scrabble?
People started spelling bad words, shooting everyone from countries that weren't their own, and forming monopolies on each corner of the board.

Rockstar got the hint everyone else missed.

To many steps DO NOT WANT!!

i like to get motorcycles and wait for Niko to put on the helmet then crash him into things and watch him fly... he is an aerial acrobat.

[bcool]

- Flinging Niko through windshields.

I had a great one when I was trying one of the ramps - I hit the top of a lamp post about halfway, causing niko to do a slow-mo superman at 50 feet up.

[az0madman]

I'm all for suicide. Trying to find the coolest way to kill Niko and see him is slo-mo is where it's at! He flies just like Superman if you drop a grenade at his feet. And I love getting hit by cars and seeing the physics at work, although I had an instant death just by running into the side of a car... it was a strange one.

I haven't done too much chaos yet, though yesterday I was trying to get the 5 minute on 6 stars achievement. I took hold up in a hospital and grenaded the place up pretty badly. Those in the waiting room caught on fire! Oh the horror! I only made it a minute and something though... Damn cops rushed me and the aiming sucks when you actually need it to work. It pisses me off just thinking about it. It'll auto aim towards the guy behind some cover and not the one who's running towards me with a shotgun.

[neverendingwhitelights]

I found this area last night, where I just absolutely could NOT get the cops to come after me. I was sniping people left and right, blew up a cop car with a rocket launcher, did not get a single star!

Didn't work after I left the area, but was fun while it lasted.

Also, a good place to hole up is Playboy X's apartment (if you got it). Cops can't come in and get you, and you can blow up the cars below, shoot the cops coming up the stairs in the building next to you and blow up helicopters. Then go to bed, rinse and repeat.

[fashionDR]

best thread ever

Agreed! So many good ideas, so many deranged people...

Another one I like to do is stand behind a pedestrian on the train platform, wait for the train to come, and then kick them onto the tracks at the last second so they get run over.

Or, nudging cars off a bridge wherever there is a gap in the wall, hilarity!

[rabidbadger]

this is just sick. so are all of you. I know it's a game, but just that you have these ideas, game or not, is pathetic.
and someone made this game to feed you the opportunity? twisted.

[GoNZooo]

and someone made this game to feed you the opportunity? twisted.
Dunno if you're serious or not, but seeing as you're throwing around words like "pathetic", "twisted" and "sick" I'm going to assume you are...

First of all: What is pathetic about killing people (in weird ways) in a game? Do you actually believe anyone in this thread would do it in real life? What is the harm if it happens to an entity in a game? Do you think it'll transfer over to real life?

Second: Do you think this is all people have done in the game? Obviously, no one is writing about how they take a cab across town just to stare out through the window the whole ride just to see how alive the city looks, because it's not what the thread is about.

Third: I believe, in many cases, people are trying to see what they can do. GTA4 offers a pretty free system in which you can test your limits and have fun doing it. When people talk about killing people in the game in weird ways they're probably not going into it with the idea that they're just gonna kill someone, but probably that they wanna see what you can do.

As a clarification for my post I'll say I've stalked people in the game to see what they do and how they interact with the environment. Picking fights with people was a great way to see who came to the rescue and thus I learned about the gang members; and I wanted to explore that further.

[radzack]

I'm pretty good with a sub-machine gun as well.

[iccanui]

*edit*

nm, im not messing up this thread :)

[Drift]

I have actually just started doing this. I am not sure how many people know this but you can do back flips on the dirt bike really easy. So I have been working with people online to park copters near the yellow jump at the airport. So I can back flip over them while they are spinning. Its alot of fun and really sick looking!

[xRyanx80]

While leaving the internet cafe in North Holland the bearded fat guy said something about not tipping. That annoyed me so I chased him out of the cafe with a molotav. After torching him I shot him in the head a couple of times just to make sure he was dead. Surprisingly enough, I didn't get a wanted level.

well played sir.

[GI_Josh]

An easy way to get the Five minutes with 6 stars achievement was before you open up the main part of the city, go on the train tracks undernearth the main bridge. You'll score the 6 stars, but the cops are up on the actual bridge and can't shoot you. Then just put the controller down and go make a sandwich.

Oh, and Michelle won't go out with me now. She's mad that on our last date, we were on a motorcycle and she got thrown really far into another car's windshield. I tried to tell her it was an honest mistake, but she told me that she was done with my bullshit...

I got put in the hospital and missed a date with Lawyer chick and now she hates me. Anyhow, you'll be seeing that bitch "Michelle" again.

On the other hand, get that Carmen drunk and pick her up wit the Stallion and she's yours.

[damnedeyez]

Yeah, I flipped Kiki off of a motorcycle...which was a load of BS since I was going slow and the car hit me in the side...she flew over the cab (probably could've cleared two cars if they were there.) It knocked her down from a 100% like to a 35%.



I sometimes get out of my car to snipe the people practicing Tai Chi...

[wils.jacob]

The most enjoyable thing I've found to do is set up wrecks where Niko flies from the car. There's something rewarding about being ejected through the windshield, only to hit a ped, then a car, then a light post and finally a building.

[iccanui]

this morning i could help but beat that guy outside the apartment where the second safehouse is. Everytime I go in he is out there yelling about how we are being used by coperate greed or whatever it was. I actually got in my car, was leaving and he was just going off again, so I turned around and got out and walked calmly up to him and as he was yelling his conspeficy theory shit I poped him. He didnt stop so I beat him senseless. Alpha baby!

Btw brucie is funny as shit, but Jacob is my boy.

[masherscf]

That reminds me. A lot of times, when I jack a car, I turn around a run over the person... for good measure.

I snipe him/them everytime...it varies but sometimes it's some old white guy spouting conspiracies, others it's some young black street preacher. I also, if I get hit by a car, get up and fill the car/driver full of lead. "You made me drop my hat, asshole."

I accidentally dumped Kiki when trying to clear my wanted level...dammit.

At least I still have Francis to do it.

[damnedeyez]

Heh, speaking of Kiki...I called her for a date but she said i was too soon, so I called Alex and on the way to Alex, I get a text from Kiki "Call me, I need you"

She's a crazy psychostalker, but she's fun

[wakuseibaka]

Ah, I forgot. I once bailed from the helicopter and bounced off, like, four buildings on the way down. Now it's a game I like to play.

[damnedeyez]

ok, so I've come to spend game evenings driving through Star Junction/the docks in search of Lola Del Rio

[iccanui]

man i missing out. helicopters, penthouses, other chics. Man i just hang with jacob and go to the strip club mostly or laugh at brucie. I thought i was winding down on things to do, apparently i need to look around some more.

[rabidbadger]

any youtubes of this madness?

[GoNZooo]

I finally did some missions today and I got to the second safehouse...

I found an ATM conveniently placed right outside, so I set up shop right beside it and waited for people to be using the ATM, then take a bat to their face when they're done.

What ended up happening was no one seemed to ever care on a legal level, but ambulances were called in like there'd just been a mass suicide. I just stood there laughing at the ambulances getting to one person by running 2-3 other people over. Also, at least 2 of them came 'round the corner, sirens on full blast, speeding, but just barely stopping before deciding it was too much of a hassle.

I ended up calling an ambulance myself for a guy, but he stopped moving after the ambulance that showed up ran him over to get to me.

Sidenote: What's up with Michelle totally digging the ratty outfits, but when I get a pimp charcoal suit at Perseus she disses it completely? I ought to shoot her in the face, 'cause I look pimp!

Dude, I totally feel you...I finally got Michelle back on my good graces, and I had done the dress up mission for Francis a while back, so I went to pick her up wearing a suit with a red tie and nice shoes....and she dissed the whole ensemble!! Later on I picked her up wearing the Statue of Happiness sweatshirt and she hated that too....but the next time, in the same outfit, she said she "loved it" because she remembered it. The next time, in the same clothes, she asked me if I couldn't afford new clothes.

Yes, Michelle asked me if I was poor. When I pick her up in a new freakin' car every single date we go on.

[GoNZooo]

Yes, Michelle asked me if I was poor. When I pick her up in a new freakin' car every single date we go on.
Hahaha.

I'm gonna try shooting her later, but I don't think I'm the only one to get the feeling that she's some kind of cop, or is otherwise important to the story; I doubt killing her would fly.

[masherscf]

Sometimes it's hard to tell what the chicks like. All I figured about Michelle is that she likes diners and hates bowling. However, none of them like repetition. Except Carmen, she likes to get banged repeatedly.

[magunwarrior]

Wow, most of you guys really aren't that far in the game :P

I just beat it today with 67.83% completion and 39 hours.

I've only recently actually started doing some missions. I find most of them boring, to be honest, and the intrigue isn't compelling enough (yet) to make me do them all that much.

Does anyone know of a place to sell stolen cars independently of missions, by the way? I want a place like the harbor crane in GTA (1).

[damnedeyez]

Not until you finish all of the side-mission thefts. Then, one of the garages you deliver cars to stays available to take/sell cars to.

[rabidbadger]

man, watched some youtubes ... this game looks awesome.
wish I was into games. and could afford the dang things.

[GoNZooo]

I love Bohan...

Just now I had some spontaneous cop action happening. Two times, following eachother, when I came out from the apartment there were arrests in action.

First one: I come out from the apartment, thinking I'm gonna cruise around in my Comet for a bit; just observe the city. I get in, start rolling away, but I notice a cop having raised his weapon, and some guy with his hands up... The guy starts walking away, the cop follows, screaming at him.

I get out of my car and start to follow them. They go 'round the corner, and the guy leaves the sidewalk, cop following him; BAM - Guy gets rammed by a hummer (or a bobcat, can't remember), is down on his knees and hands, looking real fucked up at that point. Guy is getting up, but I guess the cop decided it was lunchtime or something, because he finished him right there. One shot, 2 green little piles of cash spread out on the street.

Right after, when I was finished thinking "What the fuck?" I hear shots behind me in an intersection: There was another cop, shooting some guy who had gotten out of another SUV; shot dead right there.

Second cop drama thing happened right after I got out of the apartment as well: Got out, walked down the street, saw another arrest being attempted, and the guy started running away, as did the cop, but as they were crossing the street some shit car rams the cop carrying quite a bit of speed at that point, the cop flies for a bit, the guy runs away, the cop stands up and apparently decided it was all cool beans as he just shrugged the ramming off and abandoned the arrest.

Also, there was a cab driver who rammed a cop, got out, was on his way to an arrest but drove away with the cop leaving the arrest after the guy had driven about 30-40 meters. Terrible. :p

At this point I'm just in love with this game. These moments just had this feel to them I was really impressed by. I love spontaneous elements like these. Obviously, everything doesn't happen exactly like they'd happen in real life, but just the fact that things are happening outside of Niko's existence really brings a lot to this game, I think.

On another note: I tried following a guy who picked prostitutes up; was gonna wait for them to get it on, interrupt the lovemeet and surprise the guy with a bullet, but they never stopped for the act. Honestly, I don't think they would've ever stopped for it, but I guess you can't expect too much.

[tsmith15]

If I get frustrated at somebody, I just beat them to death with either my fists or a knife. This is when somebody curses at me or honks at me, among other things.

[GI_Josh]

So I just found out the most fun thing to do in the game, ever. You call Roman for a cab, and when it comes, set a waypoint for way far away and send him to it. On the way, hold the left trigger to aim (just like on foot) and use the cab to do drive by shootings...especially on cops. Eventually, the cops surround the cab and he has to stop (he doesn't stop when they chase him though) and just as you are about to get hanked outta the cab, smash the a button to jump to the waypoint, which gets you magically outta the situation and clears your wanted level :)

Oh yeah, thats awesome.

By the way, just got through the point where Michelle matters...and all I gotta say is damn that bitch.

[rabidbadger]

By the way, just got through the point where Michelle matters...and all I gotta say is damn that bitch.

Dude, sit through a few dates with Carmen. You'll dream of Michelle.

[rabidbadger]

ok. I want youtubes of these babes.

[rabidbadger]

preferably in bed. end 10% even if it is cartoon.

[damnedeyez]

nah, sex with girlfriends consists of seeing the outside of a building, them making odd comments and the controller vibrating.

Hookers, on the other hand, go through the motions (though no nudity...strippers/private dancers dont' wear much though.)

Don't wanna ruin it for the kiddies. :)

Dude, sit through a few dates with Carmen. You'll dream of Michelle.

I went on my first date with Kiki today...she seemed okay, and really into me. I have a date with Carmen "today" in game time, so I'll do that next time I turn the game on.

I started another file, up to the Playboy X missions.

And another thing is whenever I hear someone say "Cheesy vagina" I immediately stop the car and smash them with my bat for about five minutes.

I have never picked up a prostitute in the game, I'll admit it. I would, but I can't recognize them because everything is so detailed.

Drive around Bohan at night, they come out in droves.

[cryonix]

push anyone with a coffee cup/hot dog/anything in their hands, pickup said item and chuck it at them for a good few minutes till they go down. pelting someone down with their low fat mocha has some sort of strange satisfaction.

Get in a helicopter, get up to full speed at the highest point allowed and bail. water=survive ground=hilarious bouncing and total break down of physics. This also puts how fast the helicopter goes into perspective as you streak across the city flailing and bouncing of the environment.

Bump into someone a few times to get them to fight you, sometimes they will have a gun. lead them to a cop and watch the ensuing gun battle.

but mostly explore the interior elements of some buildings, discovered what looked like a murder scene (bloody sheets trashed apartment).

This may not have been weird or disturbing, but it's too frickin' hilarious not to share:

NJShadow and I were playing Free Mode the other night, with friendly fire turned off. There were...2 other people in the game. Neither had headsets, so it was just Shadow and I talking to each other.

What I was attempting to do was to gather up a ton of weapons, and then to meet on the roof of a particular gas station, so that we could start a massive war with the police, just to see how long we could last and how crazy we could get it stirred up.

While I gathered up some weapons and headed to the spot, NJShadow was having some difficulty with one of the other guys attempting to kill him. Friendly fire was turned off, so it was all about running him over or blowing up his vehicle with a rocket launcher.

At some point, Shadow managed to make it over to the gas station, and that's where the fun began. We were both on the roof when the guy who had a vendetta against Shadow (let's call him "Joe-something," cause that's close) came around the corner. We started firing rockets at him, which sent him flying! With friendly fire turned off, he would just dust himself off and come running again. We were getting him from different angles, and tossing him around like crazy. Shadow nearly landed him on the roof of a 3-story building!

I have to say, I was astonished that he stayed in the game as long as he did, because we were bouncing him all around, from one side of the intersection to the other. He could never take more than two steps before we sent him barreling through the air again. He didn't have a headset (like I mentioned), but since he didn't leave the game, I have to assume that he was laughing as hard as we were, which was that kind of laughter that leaves you aching.

In the end, we did get into the shoot-out with the cops, and held it at about 5 stars. Gas station rooftops are a great place to hold your ground.

Start a free-mode based in the prison...I held a 6 star by myself for a good 10 minutes (there's a rocket launcher up at the middle tower, and I'd just keep downing the 'copters...with some occasional elimination of the odd cop that got inside the prison.) I still think that'd be much more fun with a group...keep one guy in the center taking care of the helis, and spread the rest around the top of the outside walls firing out at the world.



...though your story of rocket vaulting sounds hilarious.

[Jaylaf]

...though your story of rocket vaulting sounds hilarious.


ROCKET VAULTING!!! There you go! You just came up with the name for our new sport! NJShadow and I were actually talking, at the time, about what sort of specific game we could come up with.

In the 11th hour (as the phrase goes, not literal), NJShadow realized that you could still fire your rocket launcher, as you flew through the air, from being hit by one. He was attempting to bounce himself back into the air by firing a rocket off, when he neared the ground. He only attempted it a couple times before we called it quits, but I have to wonder if there's something to that...

We need to get some of us together again, and try some of this stuff. Unfortunately, the more people who join (even if it's all Radlings), the more chaotic it gets. We would need to all agree from the menu screen that we wanted to (for example) meet at the prison, lock it down, and start a firefight. It could definitely work, and I'd love to do it. :D

actually, you can select the prison when you set up a free roam game. That way spawns should happen there, and all of the pickups are inside (or close by.) It explains why, when NJShadow and I were running around a few days ago, there wasn't anything to pick out outside of Algonquin...someone must've chosen just the middle island when they set the game up. So deciding where to meet up, maybe limit the play area to that general area...or just make it all of liberty city and migrate there.

I think everyone who hasn't done it yet should load the game and go visit the triangle club. Agree to the lap dance and keep paying the woman until she dismisses you. After all the hub-bub about "hot coffee" in the last installment, this lap dance is really much more explicit.

I was driving around picking up the different whores to see which ones said the funniest things. I gotta say, the hefty one was pretty funny.

Also got kicked out of the "Gentlemen's Club" for dancing on the stage. But, I beat down the bouncer before I left.

[rabidbadger]

out of curiosity... is this game strictly hetero? by that I mean are there gay npc's, gay bars, gay hookers? one of the youtubes I watched had one guy on a fone tell the other guy he was a fag. I didn't have a problem with that... folks do that, so adds verisimilitude, (wow, I spelled that right on the first try!)

My guess is there is that stuff, in order for it to be very NYCish, you guys just aint seeing/looking for it. And I bet the game creators made it subtle cause there would be tons of bashing going on, and that would rile up the lgbt crowd, but so would leaving it out entirely.

anyway, just a thought.

there aren't gay bars or male hookers but there is Bernie who is gay and probably one of the funniest characters in the game but there isn't a lot of gay bashing I heard "fag" being said at least twice but that was it.

[masherscf]

There's gay men on the dating site but they won't go out with you. Ironically, the mission that introduces the dating site has Niko setting up a target by making a date with him. However, unlike "Mass Effect" or KOTOR, you can't pursue any homosexual relationships beyond killing the one guy on the first date. But, Niko does seem to like hanging out with dudes. For every chick you can date, there are two guys you have to spend time with. And, that guy Bruce seems to actually be sexually attracted to himself.

Niko and Packie humorously discuss the phenomena of "prison romance" and Niko says that he would not be amenable to such an encounter. Packie admits that, although he feels an affinity for Niko, it isn't the "prison shower" sorta way.

I can't think of any other contexts where the subjects is meaningfully addressed.

[rabidbadger]

wow, actually, that's more than I expected, and fine in my eyes. cool.

And also another kinda cool easter egg is you can unlock the GTA III outfit if you get Playboy X's safehouse.

I just realized I did this today:

I don't shoot to kill when I'm in a good spot to take out a bunch of cops. Instead, I shoot their legs and such so they go down and stop attacking, but are not dead. Usually they lie in agony, or try to crawl away. Once a fair number of maimed cops are lying a pile at the bottom of the stairs, I summon the almighty rocket launcher.....

Or if I'm in a REALLY sadistic mood...Mr. Molotov's Cocktail.

[magunwarrior]

I was doing the mission for the mob guy in the hospital where you have to transport the politician, and after I had escaped the attackers, one of the escorts for no reason at all dived out of the car and rammed his head into a parked car, I had to pause the game I was laughing so hard.

I must confess... I shot Michelle on the beach just to watch her die.

Also, she cheated at bowling and deserved it.

Don't worry though she asked me to pick her up from the hospital...

Instead I ran her over then placed the wheels squarely over her cheating little heart.

Also, I re-enacted Falling Down, walking all the way home, ready to blow the heads off of anybody that dare get in my way or say mean things to me. Don't honk at me! I'm going HOME! Didn't you say the hot dog was a dollar? Why did you charge me 5 dollars? THAT... IS UNACCEPTABLE! *beats hot dog vendor with baseball bat*

Good times... good times...

Something I've recently begun to enjoy is grabbing a car with a passenger, slowing so they begin to get out, then flooring it in reverse as they're dragged by the open door until they finally hit the pavement.

Just let them get out. Otherwise, they sit in the shotgun seat and scream. It's really pretty inconsiderate.

If I carjack someone and the passenger doesn't get out before I leave...I take extra efforts to keep them screaming. Jumps, oncoming traffic, banging into cars, firing off a gun, etc. I guess it's just a great game for sadists.

It's all about multiplayer....

1. drive next to another player and beep your horn. Drive them around aimlessly for ages until 1 of two things happens, they either jump out of the car at speed, in which case you can go back and park on them, or drive to a remote location & get out, when they get out, set them on fire.

2. Hang around by the choppers at the airport. When someone arrives to fly one off, blow it the hell up. Most people, in their eagerness to get choppered up, will ignore you especially if you just stand still.

3. when spawning, wait still until someone comes over and tries to pistol whip you, (they think you've gone to get a coffee) take a step back and unload in their stupid faces.

4. Take a newly found buddy on top of a building with a chopper. Tell him you're going to snipe people in time square. when his back is turned push him off!

5. Take out someone chopper with your chopper's rotor blades. Best done over sea, as you can then land ashore and either wait for them to swim in range of your m16 or watch as they aimlessly try and swim to another island. Of course you should follow them!

6. If someone has spent 10 minutes driving the Sultan RS all the way to the airport, hunt them relentlessly - don't shoot the car, you must steal it from their lifeless hands.

7. Launch a pathetic attack on someone in a car with your pistol from your car. They will chase, then you drop all 18 of your grenades.

8. If a spawning hotspot occurs, grab a car and drive up and down the street fast, ploughing all who don't obey the green cross code.

9. Get a shotgun. Use a turn in an alley as cover. Idiots will run straight towards you and be dominated.

10. Take a friend up the the majestic hotel roof. Lead him down the stairs into the kitchen. Throw cheese at him, smash the chairs (optional), and then steal the chopper, leaving him to his suicidal fate.

If you are as funny as me and wish to partake in some of these activities, my xbox live name is frotso!

[cwilkey]

I basically drive all over the city as fast as I possibly can and try to find new spots to launch the car from... Also, the hummers are fantastically durable/powerful and survive well so that when I get a bunch of cops chasing me, then slow down until they crowd around, then drop two grenades and take off, I can survive a couple of blasts if I get slowed down... Fun times!!

[Heyseuss]

First game I'm getting when I get my ps3.

For some reason I like to drive off the highest highway jumps repeatedly and damage my car over and over to see how damaged I can get it before it blows up. I normally use a rear engined car so the it lasts longer. Surprisingly this is really fun.
