Missions..

[The Notorious MOB]

What Do you Guys think the missions will involve?

I dont mean the obvious ones that we all know about i.e. the one's in IV and TLAD. And also do you think Tony will be the main giver of missions in this game?

 

Thoughts Please (also feel free to post mission ideas that youd like to see appear in game)

 

For reference these are The Missions we know for sure are in the Game:

 

Crossovers

 

1. Three Leaf Clover (from Luis's POV)

 

2. Diamonds in the Rough "" ""

 

3. Diamond's Are A Girl's Best Friend "" ""

 

4. Collector's Item/Museum Piece "" ""

 

Yusuf Amir

 

1. "Sexy Time" - Steal an attack chopper and Destroy a Yacht with it.

 

2. "For The Man Who Has Everything" - Unhook a Subway Train car so it can be airlifted away with the use of a Helicopter

 

3. "Caught With Your Pants Down" - Steal an APC

 

Ray Bulgarin

 

1. "Going Deep" - Rig a Cop Car with a bomb to get Bulgarin and Timur out of trouble with the cops. Then then kill the guys who figure out your plan and escape with Timur.

 

2. "Dropping In" - Parachute into a building and Kill some Enemies before shooting a guy through a window and parachuting to the ground to make your escape

 

Misc

 

I Luv LC (First Mission) - Details about this mission are not yet known. (I have a pretty good idea what it is though)

 

New Random Character Mission - One of Luis's crazy ex girlfriends rigs his car with a bomb leading Luis to "Race" to disarm it.

As Tony's assistant I imagine that many missions for him will involve protecting him like Niko often had to do.

I'm crossing my fingers for a bodyguard type Side mission where you have to Protect people like Tony and Jill Von Crastenburg... Kind like the one with Petrovic but different.

[Pr0xy_fl00d3r]

This will defiantely have tie ins with the mafia, I can see a lot of potential missions fighting against other families as "hired muscle" for the Ancelloti's.

[Versityle]

GTA IV - U.L. Paper

 

TLAD - Congressmen Thomas Stubbs III

 

TBOGT - Bryce Dawkins??? Bobby Jefferson??? (the guy you had to protect in "Entourage")

 

There might be a mission or two revolving around them where you do missions for them possibly, but I can't look any deeper than that. Somebody mentioned in the now dead "The Second Episode" Thread (somehow I'm gonna miss that thread) that there could be missions involving trying to protect the secret of Bryce and Bernie's relationship

It would be an interesting concept certainly. Tony has places to go and you can ring him up and protect him while escorting him to said places. It could work well if they ensured that the missions were kept fresh.

It could be like the Taxi missions in previous GTAs. You drive Tony to a certain location and he pays you for escorting him there. Maybe they could be triggered by Tony ringing you, instead of you having to call him.

Although personally I wouldn't mind that, a lot of people seemed to have a problem with the way NPCs would call you often, and I imagine the response would be the same for this unfortunately. I wouldn't mind either option however, they are both plausible and could both be used as real side-jobs.

[Versityle]

There should definetly be a choice mission where you let someone live or die and then he/she becomes a random character or maybe just unlocks something extra like a safehouse, new clothing... whatever.

 

There also should be a "turning point" mission as I like to call them. You know what I'm talking about in IV the turning point missions are as follows (in my opinion) and these are just the main ones:

 

"Uncle Vlad"

"Russian Revolution" accompanied by "Roman's Sorrow"

"The Snow Storm"

"The Holland Play" Though it could be done at any point in the game after it is unlocked.

"Weekend at Florians"

"That Special Someone"

 

In TLAD I believe the only real turning point was "This sh*t's Cursed". And I guess "Bad Standing" but again that has alternative results.

 

So yeah, there should be something that shifts the story in another direction like what the missions above did, and I'm wondering what that can be.

I think as far as turning points go it will be similar to TLAD in the way they are done. It will take this format:

 

1. Gay Tony loses money

2. Gay Tony asks Luis to Help him plan how he's going to get rich again

3. Tony Somehow finds out about the Diamonds for sale

4. Gay Tony (presumably) suggests Luis steal the money for the Diamonds from the Bank

5. Bank gets Robbed by Niko and the McCreary's and Luis takes the Money that they can't carry

(for the diamonds)

6. They buy the Diamonds and promptly get them stolen by The Lost

7. Luis somehow finds out about the Diamond deal and steals the Diamonds back

8. Gracie gets kidnapped and Tony and Luis decide her life is more valuable than the Diamonds

9.Diamonds get taken by Bulgarin's men and thrown into a garbage truck

10. Something Happens

11.Something else happens

12. Everybody lives happily ever after... The End

Everyone lives heavily ever after! LOL. I think somehow Luis will get betrayed either by his employer or someone he works for. Seems to be the recurring trend here.

I think between numbers 2 and 3 there'll probably be other story arcs taking place before the diamonds come into play... But I could be wrong.

There will be three main story arcs in my view. Luis working For Tony, Luis Working For the Dominicans and Luis Working For the Ancelottis.

That is the most feasible storyline I've seen so far for Ballad of Gay Tony (feels so good to not have to say "Episode II" anymore). I think I could see that being the basic premise for the episode, albeit with more detail and characters added into the mix.

 

Maybe on the off chance Gay Tony didn't send Luis to rob the bank but too take out a loan or something inain like that? When Niko, Packie, Derrick & Gordon end up breaking in he sees his chance and takes it. Robbing the remaining money and giving it to Tony in order to buy the blood diamonds.

I somehow can't see that happening though because The Diamonds are said to cost $2 Million and Minus the 10% that Luis Speaks of in TLAD that would be $1.8 Million and I can't see a bank giving that to somebody... Especially not a bodyguard of a Nightclub Owner.

Maybe something even more inain than that then? Gay Tony could of sent him to cash a cheque, or try to muscle the bank manager into giving him an extension on his mortage? The diamonds could of already been mentioned and when Luis sees the open vaults he uses it as a perfect oppurtunity to steal the money and buy the diamonds.

[Pr0xy_fl00d3r]

I can see Luis stealing the remainder of the money from the banks vault and escaping via the other route, you will have to pick up Eugene Reapers gun and fighting off few law enforcement officers (only a few as most of them will be focusing on Niko, Packie & Derrick). The money will be split between him and Gay Tony, or the player has the choice of wether to give some of the money to him or not, if you give the money to him, you get some kind of reward, like a vehicle or maybe even a safehouse.

I can see the cutscene off that mission being like Reservoir Dogs whereby Luis will run out into the road being chased by the LCPD and get a smack of a car only to then Hijack it and speed away from the police.

 

I felt like the Original Three leaf clover mission was similar to the Diamond store portion of The Reservoir Dogs game anyway so it would only be right that they would pay homage to it.

Wasn't Three Leaf Clover a homage to Heat, starrting Robert DeNiero and Al Pacino? If that's the case then I can see Luis' version playing a similar role in BoGT. I haven't seen the film; so I cannot comment, however.

It was but the playable part is very similar to a Level in Reservoir Dogs (The Game) where you have to escape from the Diamond store that your crew just robbed and battle your way through hordes of cops on the street before weaving through back alleys picking off more cops in order to escape.

[Omnia sunt Communia]

I could see them including a mission called "Three Card Monte." The playing card reference would be Gay Tony (Queen of Diamonds), Luis (Jack of Diamonds; jack-of-all-trades) & maybe someone like Dimitri/Bulgarin (King of Diamonds)?

[General Goose]

In terms of side missions, I can see you escorting Gay Tony and being his bodyguard. and I also suspect more drug deals of the type LJ offered.

[JD'O Cool]

I can see a Crowd Control sub-mission like Saints Row 2.

 

I'd say the story arc consists of the Dominican Gangs and Gay Tony & Ancelotti's and how Luis is caught between them and the diamonds of course!

[Enjoii]

I can see a Crowd Control sub-mission like Saints Row 2.

Although not exactly the same, I can also see some sort of similar mini-game, protecting Tony while talking him out, especially because Luis works as Tony's bodyguard. Or possibly something similar to the mission where you take Bernie out for a boat ride and then have to protect him and kill the attackers.

Yeah, maybe in the FINAL Mission, you have to take Tony on a boat to Vice City, the NOOSE (Or FIB, *Cough* Who's Buffalo i finally got today *cough*) Then they shut down the Nightclubs and come for you on boats. Then you have get him out of Liberty.

 

Xz.

[El Zilcho]

I could imagine the mission where you pick up Gay Tony, and drive to Charge Island. You do the mission and pick up Gracie, but you are forced to escape while Bulgarins men chase you. I don't think you would kill Bulgarin this time, but I can imagine the final mission will involve the retribution on Ray.

[shinsta312]

In addition with doing missions for Gay Tony and the Ancelottis, He's also going to do missions for Willy Valerio and the Northwood Dominican Drug Dealers. Everyone seems to forget that Luis is associated with them.

 

To anybody who don't know the Northwood Dominican Drug Dealers:

 

-The gang was led by Willy Valerio and Teddy Benevidez

-Luis Fernando Lopez is friends with Valerio and the Gomez brothers.

-Benevidez had business relations with the Pegorinos.

-Alonso and Oscar Gomez, who are also members, possibly play an important role

-Benevidez was killed by Niko under the orders of Ray Boccino.

[gtabogt]

i think you get missions from tony prince and bulgarin

and i think that your enemy is ray

and the rival gangs are the pegorino's and the gang from gerald

[Little-Jacob]

Ummm... From Bulgarin? Lol...

[dabaannz]

 

A mission that may be included has to do with artist Adam Biggs... if you check out the Art gallery you'll find a rather complete interior and his work hanging on the wall... A gallery opening fits in nicely with the high life etc.

 

Also have a feeling that this building could be included... hard to see through the windows but there's a detailed interior that looks like it would host important event. Marina in back suggests possibility of arriving by boat.
