Please click on the link below in order to view the topic and find links to download them: http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=499727 Now, it's time for the review, - Writing: Good. There were very few noticable grammar mistakes. Most of the dialogues were exaggerated by the use of captil letters or repeateduse of certain letters in the word. - Presentation: Very good, The cutscenes used were perfectly focused and timed. Appropriate animations were given to the actors in the cutscenes. Start of the line - Length: Very good, as it can be done in about 8 minutes. The player, Denise, and the other Groves are in a fight against the Ballas. There are three waves, one is already in the fight. After defeating them, the Groves notice some sharp shooters on the road side above. After taking them all down, some Ballas tough guys jumps from the road and they also have to be killed. After that, an unknown man calls the cops which arrives instantly. The other groves manages to escape leaving Denise in the hands of the cops. - Difficulty: Normal. Even though there are many enemies, the fight takes place in an open area which gives the player a space in case the health starts getting low. Also the large number vf the Groves makes it easier. However, the player has to be careful so that not too many Ballas attack Big Smoke, Sweet and Ryder because they have the must survive property. - Variety:Very good. Characters include Denise, Sweet, Ballas, Big Smoke, Groves, unknown man, Tenpenny, Pulaski and other cops. Cars include police cars and other random cars which were placed in order to provide cover. Weapvns include AK 47, Shotguns and some melee weapons. Overall the mission was good and full of action. Even though not much of a story is explained, it can be understandable because it's just the first mission. The designer did a good job in the designing of the mission and should keep up with it.

After a gunfight they reach at the parking basement. They find Sweet and the gang there. The whole gang then goes to Grove Street after a chasedvwn from the Cops. - Difficulty: Hard. There are a lot of officers in and outside the LSPD. The chasedown is also difficult because of the huge number of vehicles chasing them. - Variety:Very good.

Armed and Dangerous - Length: Long, as it takes about 15 minutes to complete.

After defending themselves fro the army Denise and Ryder makes there way back to Grove Street. - Difficulty: Very Hard. There are huge waves of army that comes to attack the three.

Characters include Denise, Ryder, Emmet, and Army. Weapons include SMG, AK 47 and M14, . Vehicles include Hustler, Hunter, Flatbed The distribution - Length: Very good, as it takes about 8 minutes to complete. Ryder tells Denise that they go deliver the guns to their gang. The last place was at Jefferson's where they are ambushed by the Ballas and have to kill them. They find that they still have some guns to spare so they keep for themselves. - Difficulty: Medium.

NothingSpecial Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) @S-shark : If you suffered a crash after the falling Ballas cutscene... Before you pop all the Ballas accurate shooters down, command Sweet, Smoke and Ryder to follow you. Bring them far far away from the shootout and command them to wait. Make sure they don't follow you when you're trying to kill the Ballas down. NOTICE A crash has been reported in the first mission. To fix this problem, read in this post or read in the first post, at the mission section. Edited January 27, 2012 by NothingSpecial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitesh002 Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Played all the missions. I don't get the story yet, but the missions are fun to play especially because of the difficulty of the gameplay. There's not a single out of three that I finished in my first try. You have also kept a hell lot of effort in hiding spawning of actors and giving them the appropriate animations. What I usually do is to spawn two actors, give them the moving hand animation and they talk talk till the end and then I hide them. That's a good job you did there. Btw, none of the missions crashed for me, except the first which I fixed. I have made a gameplay video (no commentary) of the third mission because I wanted to practise out some video editing but am not sure when I will upload it coz I have to make a YouTube account first and then check if my slow internet allows me to upload it. Going to play others as they come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may want to review the second and third because they worked for you (abishai.kochara attempted to review them, but he always got crashes). I have made a gameplay video (no commentary) of the third mission because I wanted to practise out some video editing but am not sure when I will upload it coz I have to make a YouTube account first and then check if my slow internet allows me to upload it. Of course you can, but remember me! Expect more missions soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
