Gang fighting in story mode

[SCLA2132310]

Here's a few things I do to get the Families  and Ballas  to fight and shoot. I've  even found a trick to get Lamar to have a gun and do drive bus.

 

1st. The Drive by.

 

It's simple. Replay the 34th mission "Hood Safari". After you escape Grove St follow Lamar when he suggest y'all split up. He's gonna land on the beach and you have to stay close to him so Franklin will tell Lamar to follow him. If you don't stay close he'll  run off on his own.

 

After landing on the beach evade the cops. I usually shoot the helicopter down and run towards the bridge. After evading the cops just get a car and Lamar will shoot at anyone u shoot at. I like to hunt down Ballas and Vagos in traffic, shoot  their car once, and let Lamar do the dirt as I chase them through the streets.

 

Also, no one shoots back. Except the cops lol. Everyone runs. Whether  on foot or in traffic.

 

2nd. Rumbles/Brawls(and sometimes a shootout) with the Ballas.

 

Besides hanging out with Lamar and going out picking fights with all the other gangs, you can hang out with Franklin's homies and get into full scale rumbles and shootouts with the Ballas. But there's  a trick to it.

 

Just like on San Andreas, and in real life, the "gunline" a.k.a the boundaries of two gang territories, are extremely dangerous. Naturally, members of the two gangs will cross paths. On San Andreas  I used to simply  recruit  7 homies and run to the Families/Ballas gunline(My favorite spot was the basketball courts right across the freeway by Grove st).

 

On 1 side of the boundary the game programs that gang to spawn  and likewise for the other. I would stand on the Families side for  while until a few families members would appear and start hanging out so them plus me and my 7 can  burn the streets down with Mp5s and Deagles once I cross over to the Ballas side and wait for them to spawn.

 

It's pretty much the same for GTA V, except you can't  recruit homies. Best you can do is hang with Lamar while hanging with other Families. But Lamar won't have a gun whenever if ever someone pulls a gun out and the fight becomes a good ole smoke down.

 

So far I've  got 2 spots where this can happen.

 

The first and most suitable spot is on the corner of Strawberry and Innocence, right around  the corner  from Franklin's  first house on Forum Drive. The Families  spawn and hang out at the shopping center right next door to the car wash. But right across the street at The Lucky Plucked and Ring of Fire Chili House is Ballas territory so they spawn  when you're  over there.

 

I usually walk there from around Franklin's house to give the game time to spawn Families members across the street on the Ballas side before going over there harassing Ballas walking and driving down the street. There's usually about 3 or 4 Families members hanging in front of a wall right next to the alley behind the shopping center on the Families side that'll  help you as well. (I noticed that when they're  there they're  the ones who pull guns). But getting them to help is complicated. 

 

If you are wanted by the cops, Franklin's homies will shoot at them. But when Franklin's  being attacked,  even by Ballas, they don't help. So you have to get one of the Ballas to hit one of the Families.  Then the other Families will all jump in.

 

Another thing is that in this area the Ballas dont spawn unless you're in the lot where the chili house and lucky plucker is. I usually stand right in front of the buildings where ppl usually spawn and occasionally  go to the side walk to check if any Ballas  are coming

 

The 2nd spot of Conflict  is the gas station on Grove street. Slowly approaching it from Families turf will cause the game to spawn Families  members over there at the gas station. There's usually a gang of Families hanging on the corner Forum Drive in front of the empty lot as well as the apartments that line Strawberry Avenue. And Ballas always immediately  spawn on Grove St. All it takes is me waving my gun around at random people until the Ballas start attacking.  But they shoot instantly. And the Families  instantly return fire.

 

It's a mess sometimes  because that's a big intersection and a lot of cars start  crashing and running  your homies over cuhz they start running across towards Grove Street as the Ballas run towards Forum Drive. But you're  bound to get some good ole gang land action something like San Andreas.
