Vice Tourist Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 (edited) When I get into a car or motorcycle I am unable to shoot/ do a drive-by at my targets. Does the PC version not have the feature of shooting from your car or am I doing something wrong?

Ring_of_Fire Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Some keyboards don't allow multiple keys to be pressed at once. You need to see which certain key combinations can allow this. All I know is that you need to stop accelerating to do it efficiently in your situation -> (i.e. [1/2] numpad key + [0]). Just don't accelerate at the same time.

Demarest Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Anybody using a keyboard that doesn't support many keys at once should replace it if they intend to use it for gaming at all. Are you sure you have an SMG? You cannot drive-by unless you have a Mac10, Tec9, Uzi, or MP5.

Justin Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 Are you sure you have an SMG? You cannot drive-by unless you have a Mac10, Tec9, Uzi, or MP5. Which the game informs the user of via a text box. Likewise for the instructions and further requirements when performing a drive-by. In fact, Vice City, being a game, was designed to be user-friendly. Nothing's too hard to figure out as long as you pay attention to the on-screen prompts. Starting a new game will show you all the instructions over again, in case you missed something the first time around.

Ring_of_Fire Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 ...Or in the game's instruction booklet manual, ReadMe file, and Take 2 Support's FAQ/game tips website. Vice Tourist, you aren't talking about the Pizza Boy missions? If you are only talking about regular drive-by shooting, then just use the correct keys to look to the left/right and then shoot like how you would shoot with a Uzi. The bike for example, all you need to do is to just hold down the [FIRE/AIM/SHOOT] button. Most likely though you are shooting while accelerating and looking at the same time. Make sure also that you are using the Standard Controls in 'Controller Setup' main menu and not Classic; I would just select on 'Restore Defaults' if I were you.

Well That clears everything up. Thanks and game on. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/276173-shooting-from-your-car/#findComment-4208969 Share on other sites More sharing options...
