What do you think about 100% Rewards in GTA 4 and EFLC?

[Necrosummon]

Hi guys, today thinking about this, would like me know what do you think about 100% game completion rewards on GTA IV and EFLC. For now, i only played the GTA III saga and GTA IV saga, but comparing this 2 sagas, the first one has better rewards in comparison with GTA 4 saga.

Compared with GTA SA and VC for example:

- GTA VC

200 maximum Health

200 maximum Body Armor

Replenishing ammunition for all weapons

The ability to recruit three bodyguards at the Vercetti Estate for $2000 each

The "Frankie" outfit inside the Vercetti Estate

Double vehicle strength for any vehicle Tommy Vercetti drives

- GTA SA

$1,000,000.

Ammo for all weapons does not decrease from what the player had when they completed 100%, essentially, infinite ammo. (You still need to reload though unlike the infinite ammunition cheat).

Double vehicle strength for any vehicle main character drives.

Hydra on the roof of Sweet's house.

Rhino by the bridge going above Ganton.

BMX by the Police Station in Los Santos.

GTA 4 / EFLC

Unlimited Ammo (but you need spend money, and it's bugged because you lose the extra ammo when load the game)

What rewards would you add to GTA IV saga for the 100%?

Greetings and Happy New Year from Spain!

You also get an achievement tho... as for the reward itself, it is because of R* making a more realistic game, so having a tank under a bridge and a fighter jet on a poor neighbourhood's house is not that realistic...

I'd say a unique vehicle that isn't easy as hell to find without having to 100% the game. Kinda like the Space Docker is unique for GTA V, only a reward for a S/F mission.

Give purpose to wanting to 100%. HD 100% rewards sucked.

It would've made more sense if we got a tank in GTA IV. After all, wasn't Niko a tank operator in his military days?

I would've liked some unique weapons like the flame thrower, chainsaw etc unlocked. GTA IV's a great game an all, but rewards 100% or not are...meh. It's the sole thing I dislike in the game.

Agree with others above. Getting 100% was worth it just for the challenge, but the rewards - I'm not sure I even remembered what they were! A thought I just had was it might have been good if it unlocked additional functions like sjaaks SNT ultimately gave us - e.g switching character model, opening boots, sitting down, etc. Stuff not necessary to complete the game but things that could enhance free roam. Ofcourse thanks to sjaak, all that stuff is possible anyway now, but it wasn't when the game first came out.

We should of gotten fingerless gloves at 100% and a Rhino that spawns at the junkyard.

Tbh, I would of been happy with IV, TLaD, and TBoGT's "100% Reward" of removing the Ammo Cap IF and ONLY IF I could save it. Sure, I could load up my Save, go to Ammunation, and buy 9999 rounds of the M4 for instance and mess around with it, then reload and do it all over, but NOT being able to SAVE all the Ammo really sucks. I mean, 600 rounds for an M4? That's it? 1,500 for a Deagle? I like the 3D Era and V where you can hold 9999 (V) and beyond (3D Era).

 

In CW it's even worse. NO 100% Rewards at all and max ammo is 99 (things like Molotovs and Grenades) and 999 (Pistols, SMG, M4, etc). Luckily, though, there is a way to get a Minigun with Infinite Ammo (literally has a sideways 8 on the screen when you have it equipped) in CW and to top it off, you can keep it forever...

 

100% Rewards are not in III, either, but at least in III the game rewarded you with huge things throughout. Finish Import/Export, you basically have like 20 Vehicles that you can always get a hold of at any given time, including things like an FBI Car, Barracks OL, and Tank from the Emergency Vehicle Crane in Portland. Then you have 6 Police Bribes at the Safehouses just for completing 60 Kills in Vigilante across all 3 Islands. A Flamethrower for completing Firefighter and extinguishing 60 fires across 3 Islands. Pistol through RPG's spawning at the Safehouses, etc, etc.

 

I honestly don't mind Collectibles when they give you Weapons and Body Armor at the Safehouse, but when you do 200 of the WORST kind in the Series and all you get is some useless fragile piece of sh*t Helicopter, that makes me NOT want to even bother. I do bother, though, since I am a Completionist and always complete everything I touch to the fullest and it's not just GTA, but everything in life. But there really is actual reason to complete any HD Era GTA to 100%, basically as you get dick for doing all the work. 3D Era > HD Era any way I cut it and look at it. I've always said this, though, so it's no surprise I am repeating it yet again for like the 100th time on this Forum...I get more enjoyment and replay value out of any of the five 3D Era GTA's over IV, TLaD, TBoGT, CW, and V. IV, TLaD, and CW are awesome, though, but lack those 100% Rewards or any good Reward, in general...
