Misleading Mission

[lil weasel]

All long time players know now that when the Game gives instructions during a mission some of them are not necessarily accurate.

Like the Girl Friend dating where the Girl says one thing (Slower) but the text says another (faster).

So, I ask which mission do/did you find Lied the most as to how it should be done?

And/Or which mission do you feel Cheats. (i.e. the quarry missions where the cargo is stable until you reach a certain point and then it goes 'bouncy'.

[lloydo]

I don't know if it counts, but it was pretty annoying when I had to buy Verdant Meadows for such a high price even though Torino told me otherwise.

[Thed0815]

yep agree with lloydo.

Torenos said something like:

"Shouldn't cost that much. You offer them a dollar. If they give you a hard time, kill them."

That confused me since my first gameplaying this mission. Well... 80.000$ and 1$ got much differences lol and kill who? There is noone to kill, only some desert birds and yourself . I guess this is the most lied mission (for me it is). It tells you to buy a property which shouldnt cost much, but in real it costs 80k. Isn't this a big lie?

[lil weasel]

Aye, that balances the missions where CJ was out robbing banks to make money for TheTruth (and Tenpenny) to buy the Weed. And when you get there you didn't need it.

[Girish]

But Toreno works for the government and the government lies all the time. It makes perfect sense!

Well, during 'Black Project', it says/is said that if you disable the SAMs, the guards won't attack you. But they did. Not when I was going down for the jetpack, but as soon as I strapped on the jetpack they started firing.

Are you sure? I think it says disabling the SAM sites means that the SAMs won't attack you. There's nothing about the guards not attacking you.

 

But I could be wrong. It's been a while since I played that mission, so I might not recall correctly.

[Mahi129]

I was using a guide/walkthrough that suggested I first disable SAMs so that it would help me later to get rid of those guards' attacks when escaping; though they weren't a problem while escaping even if they were firing.

That doesnt make any logic sense lol.

In the mission You get spotten by guards when you'r in the last room with the jetpack, so Alert Red goes and it even says in the mission, that ALL Guards are alerted now or something, so they are all over the base and shoot at ya.

SO it happens if you disable or let the SAM sites, doesnt matter.

If you don't disable the SAM Sites, there will be soldiers AND rockets will attack you, which wouldnt be "nice"

I never tried it before but its logic, isnt it? I gotta try it sometime when i got time

[lil weasel]

I usually pop-out and fly close to the ground, and then skip over the fence without bothering with the SAMs. I use the same maneouver to get to the Rhino later to do the vigilantee missions.

[Mahi129]

Yeah, maybe.

 

But when I was going downstairs to the jetpack, I even went too close to the guards and they were standing still. I even had the time to pierce them with a knife.

 

Anyway, that was quite interesting experience.

 

Is there any timer in the mission 'Intensive Care'? I heard some people saying that.

Just that if it's not done with dispatch the mafia will escape, as in most Chase missions.

Hehe that's true. I wish there would be an "add on" for SA, including mission where to kill Toreno. Man I hate that guy!

[lil weasel]

So, I'm doing the Zeroing In sub-mission.

It says I'm supposed to catch the car.

I pinned the car down by the Golf Club and the door wouldn't open. I guess she locked it. OK, I pinned the car again by the ocean (The Town Hall), Again the door wouldn't open. I'm whacking the rear quarter all the way up the hill.

Then the message about PIT appears.

I couldn't get the car again until she bailed at the 180 switchback.

Hilarius lol

high noon

 

for only reason: tenpenny needs CJ to even rub out his own men... was misleading and useless mission. I guess the reappearance of the elegy (car?) even after destroying was a silly gift in return from tenpenny.

[lil weasel]

Did anyone notice. If you already have a parachute when you start the Stowaway Mission the game takes it away. You Must get the one issued on the plane or CJ is dead when he jumps.

 

mission title corrected thank you.

@lil weasel

Interdiction? Ya mean Stowaway maybe, where you needa drive into the andromada plane and placing satchel's and then jumping out of the plane with para?

Interdiction is that one, where you must protect the Leviathan heli from the FBI and collect the -something- packages and bring to Las Brujas.

I think R* did it like they wanted it. I understand you. They (R*Games) WANT that you kill the guy with the parachute... lol

 

Oh and btw, Dunno if it counts too, but on mission "Reuniting the Families" (or soemhting, dont know exactly, sorry) After the chase where you shoot with the AK47, after you finish the mission, you will have not a gun on M4/AK47 slot. Isn't it ... erm... missleading?

[lil weasel]

Thank you for the title correction.

Regarding the M4 to AK47 it is explained during the dialog that the weapon CJ has is out of ammo/defective. At the end the AK47 CJ has is again defective/out of ammo. But, in that one why can't CJ use his mini-SMG/SMG/Tec-9? So yes it's another flawed story line.

 

has anybody tried to use the 'Gas Grenades' from the Casino Heist. During the heist they only work in the casino.
