MostOfAll Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 I'm waiting until I finish the storyline to work on the vigilante missions as a way to show Niko's way of giving back to the community in Liberty City after all the people he killed and all the destruction he caused. It would be hypocritical for him to do that while he's committing felonies himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuisBellic Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 yeah im thinking of doing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MostOfAll Posted November 4, 2010 Author Share Posted November 4, 2010 yeah im thinking of doing that. Really? I'm surprised because I thought I was the only one who came up with that. After all, it's clear that most of the protagonists in the series don't want a life of crime; it's just that crime is almost inevitable for them. Niko mentions all throughout the storyline that he doesn't intend on murdering and committing all these other crimes. When he originally came to Liberty City, he believed he was going to get away from his troubled past and that he wouldn't kill any more people.

Magic_Al Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Sort of similarly, I never got around to Niko's optional Internet dating till long after the story and getting 100% completion (and 100% in TLAD and TBOGT). The save file has almost 200 hours of gameplay and over a year in-game time, but Niko has only been dating Alex and Carmen for a couple weeks and just started dating Kiki. It's fun to have some dialogue I haven't heard and Alex's blog posts to read. In between dates I'm working on the last single-player achievement not done yet, Genetically Superior. Niko's lifestyle has become relatively peaceful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AceRay Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 I'm pretty sure that vigilante missions aren't canon. I'm sure I couldn't jack a police car, and just take missions randomly from the computer. Side-missions ain't canon, face it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niko's lifestyle has become relatively peaceful! It's nice to know some people agree with my viewpoint on this. Maybe this is how I should play Grand Theft Auto games from now on. I'd rather have a series of really intense missions during the storyline instead of completing side missions and dating girls. Unless provoked, Niko is known to be a peaceful person who wouldn't attack anyone without logical reason to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I couldn't jack a police car, and just take missions randomly from the computer. Side-missions ain't canon, face it. Still, wouldn't you feel good just knowing you eliminated killers to clean the streets on Liberty City? At least you stole the police car for a good cause. Robin Hood stole from the rich, but all he wanted to accomplish from that was to give to the poor. If you think about it, stealing a police car, especially an unoccupied one, to track down criminals and eliminate them isn't all that bad. The cops wouldn't do anything about those criminals, right? Niko himself is much more capable than more than thirty LCPD cops. On a side note, I'm going to use Dwayne's backup goons to aid me with these tasks.

It would be hypocritical for him to do that while he's committing felonies himself. lol. Niko is still a hypocrite. kill over 500 people and talk about morals, not hitting women, about "how the population of LC would be higher if...",...etc. Niko actually reduces the population of LC in a drastic way and if you want to play like that...do a service for the community...then take a chopper, fly as high as you can and exit the helicopter. With Niko's death, you would cause a service for the community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidamelo Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Hi, when Niko is doing vigilante missions I think he isn't making a "service for community", like Francis McReary says, I think he is just looking for extra money and weapons. He "works for whoever is paying", like the own Niko said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AceRay Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 niko is the man. the only times he kills innocents is when the player wants him to. if he had choice, i'm sure he'd rebel against the player. somehow. killing is all he knows since he was 13. replay that special someone, listen to dialogue with Roman etc. you find out a lot about him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, in "Three Leaf Clover" and "To Live and Die in Alderney," he kills cops. I'm actually at the point of starting "That Special Someone" right now. I received the phone call from UL Paper, called Roman, picked up Roman, and watched part of the cutscene. Something came up, and I had to stop playing right there. Can't wait to start it again the next time I play! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexGTAGamer Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 I always do the Vigilante Missions after I've finished the story so then I have something to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
