FilthyLittleGod Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Ok, still in the very early stages of the Single Player game (been busy with school). I had three missions on my map - a Strangers & Freaks (which turned out to be a race one, it was only second S & F mission in the game, the one after the very first one where you tow the vehicle with the crack head lady), a Simeon, and a Franklin. I wanted to revisit the S&F one cuz annoying race, so I did the Franklin mission. Then, I was on my way to do the Simeon mission when my first random event of the game (a robbery) and, after that, the S&F mission icon was gone from my map. Have I missed this mission forever? Will it come back? Will new ones appear? Thanks in advance. I'm on PS4, if that makes any sort of difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dryspace Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Some side missions become available according to the individual's daily schedule. Just wait until night or day as the case may be. I wouldn't do story missions until you have done all secondary missions though, as I'm not sure they remain available forever. Perhaps someone else can verify whether that is true.

FilthyLittleGod Posted November 9, 2017 Author Share Posted November 9, 2017 (edited) @dryspace Oh wow. Ok. Well this seemed like a night street race and my game is in day time now so I'm thinking it should reappear in the night, thanks! I usually do try to do side missions before main story, I was just frustrated with the S & F race mission as I couldn't win it lol. I have no problem starting a brand new character / game if it DOES turn out I've missed this mission, I'm not very far into the game yet. Is there a way to quickly advance the time from day to night? Also, are the only "main" missions the ones with the initials of a main character's name? Like, are Simeon missions side or main?

StangOne50 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 (edited) I think the only one you can really miss is the simeon event. The others should come back. There are a couple random events where you meet characters that can be used for heists. They may not be available for the heists until you have completed the random event. There is a point in the "crack head" ladies missions when you will need to call her to progress. The night races are only available at certain times and should come back. To advance time quickly just lay in a bed, saving is not needed. I believe trevor advances time 12 hours, Mike 6 hours and Frank 8 hours iirc.

FilthyLittleGod Posted November 9, 2017 Author Share Posted November 9, 2017 (edited) ..the "crack head" lady... Is she NOT a crack head? Also, thank you kindly! Edited November 9, 2017 by FilthyLittleGod StangOne50 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andromeda-J Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 ..the "crack head" lady... Is she NOT a crack head? Also, thank you kindly! yeah, she's prostitute who lost some intelligence due to having history of crack using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dryspace Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 (edited) I didn't know that Tonya was a prostitute. I mean, I don't find it surprising considering her...avocation, I just don't remember specifically learning that she was.

ChiroVette Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 All the Strangers & Freaks missions and all side missions are available for the duration of the game. You should be aware that some are limited by time of day. For instance, all of Hau's street races and all of the Blaine County Off Road races are only available at night. Many of the others are only available at certain times during the day. As for killing Simeon, that is the only one that is time sensitive with a small window. But it is also not required for 100% completion. The Simeon Random Event becomes available after you complete Friend Request BUT will be gone forever once you complete Mr. Phillips.

just do it bob1 Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Not sure, but I would finish side missions whenever they appear. This way you can get 100% completion with little stress (if that's what you want.) I would NOT move onto story missions UNLESS you have completed the side missions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the exact philosophy I have played ALL sandbox games since GTA III. Although, I will say that you can get 100% completion and miss a ton of side missions and more than half of the random events. That said, I get the feeling you aren't talking about 100% completion, but are referring to getting every single box checked off in the Social Club.

Cutter De Blanc Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Simeon's random event is the only one missable, although it is advised to do the Duke'O'Death random event as soon as it shows up, as ignoring it for too long can reportedly cause it to bug out and disappear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tycek Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 (edited) I'm not sure if the issue is still present in the game, but last Dom's mission could disappear completely if he missed the truck in his penultimate task. This bug was definitely present in the last gen version, so don't quote me on its existence in the current gen game. It's just a heads up that it still may be there.

SeberHusky Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 I didn't know that Tonya was a prostitute. I mean, I don't find it surprising considering her...avocation, I just don't remember specifically learning that she was. If you pay attention to the conversations with her and Franklin you will learn that she was/is a hooker and recovering drug addict. You might be thinking of Tanesha (spelling?) who is Franklin's ex-girlfriend who left the hood and dumped him to date (and later marry) a brain surgeon. She was the prettier one and didn't ruin her life with drugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinZer0s Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Like many said, killing simeon is the only one you can miss permanently because all the other ones can be done at any moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokesWithCigs Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 I don't know about that but it takes some random events a while to trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dryspace Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 @SeberHusky No, I was referring to Tonya. I listened to the conversations, I just didn't recall her or anyone else mentioning that she was a prostitute. I only knew that she was a crackhead...and not a recovering one. As I said, a crackhead prostituting herself isn't surprising, I just didn't recall it being mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_P136_ Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 You can miss the opportunity to whack Simeon Yetarian, I managed to do just that. I replayed it from an earlier save when I realized it though. I ignored the Duke of Death a couple of times and the event doesn't spawn for me anymore. Also, if you let the shrink escape there's no way to gun that bastard down later. Same about Dreyfuss . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dryspace Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Oh, by the way, you can definitely permanently miss phone calls that aren't directly related to missions. I missed a call from someone I did a little favor for because I hit someone on my motorcycle or something right after I answered the call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
