"I’ve got some competition based at a construction site in La Puerta. If the head of the crew had an accident, maybe they won’t be so competitive, you get me? Go to the site, clap the dude, I’ll make it worth your while."

Gerald Contact Mission, opens at R19. 1-4 players [GTA Wiki]

Feel free to discuss your favorite methods and techniques for playing this mission, and disseminate any information about how the mission might change between updates.

This and other Gerald missions are 2x$ 2xRP today Wed Feb 24 2016

 

==========================

 

I've played this one with randoms, and seen the armored Kuruma taken a bit to far when they drive up into the upper levels.

 

If you don't already know, you can end this mission quickly in the small window you have when the objective changes to kill the guys on the third level and the gang boss' Frogger is taking off. However, if you want to maximize your RP and leaderboard mission score, taking 'em all out on the top level, then getting to the beach out by the Palamino Highlands is the way to go.

Yea, that's too far.

I usually clear the construction site floor by floor using an M249 with the 200 rounds clip. Then go after the boss.

I tend to buzzard the lower levels before entering the site, clear 1 & 2, and the one guy on the up-ramp for the top level, then drop back down to the buzzard and kill the boss as he's taking off.

 

As a free-aim player, this is one of my favorite missions left in the game.

I find it a little annoying that you can't effectively toss molotovs over the wall because of the ceilings.

Smoke grenades are an adequate alternative as you can bounce them off the ceiling or walls. Often use one to help deal with the guy at the top of the stairs on the second floor (if you are going up the concrete stairs instead of the wooden ramps), as well as the room with the plywall which you can toss one over.

I seen people ak it. I did it to see how it is.you can make it to the heli if a 2nd guy killed the 2nd floor while on the ramp to roof if you blow it up before it says take out the gang leader the game is now stuck as he is no where to be seen, so you have to kill yourself and redo the mission to complete it. When I did it i put a stick on it and waited for the heli to move and you win. I have not tryed to steal it yet. I wounder what that would do XD

Good to know. Do you know if the helicopter has already spawned before the first floor is taken out?

I think I do remember that going to the other building, once you have triggered the "go to the construction site" objective, will give an "out of area" warning.

Alright I just tested the heli spawns when it says go to the roof. I stole the heli and he runs away trying to get away from you. Video

*ahem* Guilty as charged.

 

I know, I know; but two ways to look at this--cheap/lazy, sure it is. But I also like asking: "what is actually possible?" I've actually stumbled onto some good tactics for losing attackers and/or defending myself in free roam doing just that kind of experimentation. :)

 

Besides, am honestly pretty sure R* made those ramps as wide as they are to allow that tactic (at least in free roam, anyway).

According to the GTA Wiki: "The enemy helicopter does not spawn until the second floor has been cleared, so don't waste time destroying it beforehand."

 

This mission I usually avoid (as well as "Mixed Up With Coke")--though just took a look

and want to try it tonight. Edited by DentureDynamite
