Best Places For Police Fights

PORTLAND SPOTS

 

 

On top of the train tracks in Portland.   In Portland in Chinatown there is a fairly large building next to the highway called punk noodles. Go up the steps and around the corner and jump onto the awning. From here you can take shots at civilians, triads, cops and you can shoot at the cops. Helicopters can get to you though, and the cops tend to go underneath the awning so you can't hit them and they can't hit you. All you have to do is drop down a Molotov cocktail or a grenade down and hope but I bounce grenades off the building opposite onto them. Also there is a hidden package up there somewhere.   At the "bitch n dog food" plant in Portland, the walls of the fortress don't stop area-effect weapons, such as the bat and the flame-thrower. By switching to the top view (select button three times) you get a nice perspective as you ignite groups of cops, feds, civilians, etc   There's a spot in Portland where you're invulnerable to everything but the helicopters. You could enter the Weapons cheat if you want to, but make sure you have plenty armor. First you have to drive to the car crusher over by eight ball's bomb shop. To the left of the crusher, there's a yellow (I guess the best to put it is) conveyor belt. Jump on top of it, and run to the top. It may take a few tries, so don't give up. Once you get up to the top, back up a step or two. Take out your sniper rifle, and pick people off from far. You'll have to zoom all the way in, so it takes aim.   On top of the building in Portland where you snipe Salvatore in the "Sayonara Salvatore" mission.   A very good place to fight police is in Portland at the police station. To get to it just purposely get busted and when you resume control of your guy go to the immediate right. There should be a flight of stairs. Just climb it and go to the right up to the wall. After you get there you can enable the "ALL WEAPONS" cheat or go collect weapons and then blast away.   Right at your first hideout is a great spot in Portland. You have the garage for shelter from the heli, and sometimes it hovers where it can't hurt you anyway. Cars and tanks can get in with difficulty, but you have the stairs to toss hand grenades, molotov, launch rockets etc. SUBMITTED BY f*ckINDUMASS   Also a very good spot is Luigi's roof, you can get there by the stairs. You can cover under the bill boards to cover from helicopters. SUBMITTED BY LORD FIDO

 

 

STAUNTON ISLAND

 

 

At the far end of ramp that the respray shop is on in Staunton Island (The one you use in the "Grand Theft Auto" mission). Right in the far right corner you can face the street and go nuts. The cops on foot can't get to you and they can't shoot at you. Your only problem is helicopters and those are easy enough to deal with.   The parking garage in Newport in Staunton is a pretty good place to turn into your own private fort. Stand on top of cars and snipe out through the windows, blow up cops who try to enter through the gates, etc.   Your hideout in Staunton Island is perfect for a place to engage the police from. It's also a great place for capturing the elusive FBI Car.   On top of the AMCO building in Torrington in Staunton Island.   A room in a building across the street from the AMCO building that you can enter. It has glass walls, like the Internet café.   run down to the docks in Staunton, and jump in a boat. Drive under the bridge with the gap in the middle, the one that doesn't lead out of the city, and go back and forth beneath it. The cops and feds will start flying into the water trying to get you! Perfect place to sit and laugh at cops; the only things that can hit you are copters and you can hit triangle, take a few steps back, and blow them down with a rocket launcher.   Kenji's rooftop. The intersection provides for ample pedestrians and cops to pop off. The roof is wide open and allows for the shooting down of helicopters. What's great, is when the FBI gets in there, they drive around the corner and nearly flip their cars over EVERY TIME. I laugh all the way to the bank. And the best is that if you get bored busting them all down, just park your Barracks OL at the bottom of the stairs and take off. It'll be untouched.   Go to belvelliue Park and you won't be touched by anything except the usual officer running at you.   Staunton Island, go to the Staunton - Shoreside bridge, where the metal work starts on the right hand side, climb up the sloped bit of concrete onto the side. Walk all the way along the bridge to where it was separated before Shoreside was available (there's a gray/beige pillar on the right hand side) and jump onto the raised concrete platform. Walk around the red girder on the right and get onto the little ledge, face the north and walk off, you will land on a blue walkway.   Walk all the way along it towards Staunton and start shooting stuff, and get your wanted level nice and high. Only the helicopters can get you. If you want to get off take a running jump at the far end of the walkway near the intersection to land in the grass. Be sure to get rid of your wanted level first though, or about 50 FBI guys that have been hiding under the walkway will all fire at once. You can easily blow up cop cars that are on the bridge with the rocket launcher or flame-thrower, and below you with Molotovs or grenades.   A nice place to kill cops and create a rampage is on top of a building near the bridge to go to Shoreside Vale. Take a fast car and ride up the ramp and jump off the edge onto a top of a building. You may land on the roof of your car so get away fast. Stay on the top of the building though. There's a package around there somewhere too.   Go to the part which is right under the bridge and no helicopter will be able to get you. From there you can snipe or drop grenades to kingdom come. Note on rare occasions the helicopters might come down on the far side of the rooftop and shoot directly on your side. This can be avoided however by using the giant wall, which holds the bridge up as a barrier.   The coolest place to fight the cops is in the Internet café the ceiling blocks out helicopters and the cops are to stupid to go up the stairs. Also just shoot the glass windows and u can pick off pedestrians, cops, etc. You can just shoot down at the cops and they can't hit u. Just make sure u don't fall off the floor where the window use to be.

 

 

SHORSIDE VALE

 

 

You're probably not interested anymore but if get a flame-thrower and a lot of ammo and go in the little "hut" next to the Colombian villa/mansion you can spray fire through the walls but it is impossible for any cop or helicopter to hit you. Your only threat is cop cars blowing up outside. Also you will need to go the top view.   The Dam. There is a spot halfway down the dam that ends in a two-story stairway. Go up, pop civilians, rocket the helicopters, and drop grenades for the po po. This is great.   Behind the Shoreside Vale police station. Jump onto the building behind the station and run to the end. You should be above the four-way intersection, full of pedestrians, cops, and FUN. Enjoy the mayhem.   Stand on top of the ledge that borders the projects in Wichita Gardens, Shoreside Vale.   Another fun place to engage the cops in the garage at the Shoreside Vale hideout. Stand inside the garage in the middle towards the back wall. This should give you a clear view of the sidewalk. You can now shot pedestrians and police vehicles freely. You are protected from the helicopters and the police, FBI or army vehicles will not enter your lot. The only threat is a few single police officers that will attempt to jump the small wall that outlines your hideout.   At the subway entrance near the airport. (At the top of the "Rocky" stairs. Once again helicopters are the main problem. If you sit right at the top the cops WILL charge up the stairs but if you hide near the corner they will just circle like idiots. If things get out of control the beauty is you can just run down into the subway! Once a tank chased me down the stairs but it was my fault for letting him get up there in the first place.

[Bartleby]

I've always found that a effective vantage point for rampages is this elevated walkway above the throughfare in Chinatown that parallels the water and leads all the way through down to Greasy Joe's. This overhead walkway leads to a train station, and if you stop directly above traffic, you can have a lot of fun lobbing grenades and molotovs at passing cars. In fact...

 

 

Bartleby goes to play GTA3 and rampage in that spot

OooOoo good tip! I just tried that now, and the cops never got me, tehe.

Right at your first hideout is a great spot in Portland. You have the garage for shelter from the heli, and sometimes it hovers where it can't hurt you anyway. Cars and tanks can get in with difficulty, but you have the stairs to toss hand grenades, molotov, launch rockets etc.

Also a very good spot is Luigi's roof, you can get there by the stairs. You can cover under the bill boards to cover from helicopters.

 

Once i crashed into one of Callahan Bridge's metalic columns, i passed through and stayed in middle of the bridge, it was so fun!!! you could burn cars and nobody , not even helicopters could kill you. If you wanted to exit a invisible floor was aviable and led to Greasy Joe's.

[weejimmy]

Ok added you tip lord fido anyone else got any good places

[Informant X]

Theres a building across from the construction site on Staunton Isle where you go up some steps and theres a pill pickup. Thats a good place. Also at Staunton, the cemetery beside the church.
