Ransom

Ermmmm weird and try reinstalling everything if you havent already

I think in everyones mind, the stubby is getting boring. If its not, then you haven't been around nearly long enough. I really hope that it is changed somehow so that it is as scarce as much as the spaz was perhaps. The game is so much more entertaining when its just all the other spawns warring. When a stubby gets there its just a bunch of people running around hiding under lag or jumping, getting knocked down, getting up only to be shot in the back, and finally respawning which is a very boring waiting time. Takes all the action out of the game. These days I am barely involved in any kind of MTA competition due to clans cheating, lagging, glitching or some other means and then denying it. Of course theres nothing you can say beyond that point but argue until someone gets sick enough of the arguement to leave and nothing changes.

haha, maybe someday I'll go find deathb that would be fun

I'm referring to the medals though, not endurance. I find those easy, but when you have to use one of the most extreme cars in the game to get around the track in 2 minutes, its amazing how impossible it is. I tried like 100 times. It was the car thats like blue and orange I think and you have to race around a course I think is named Seattle. Its like one of the last medals. I gave up knowing once you get them all you gotta do the last one which is where you use like the fastest car in the game and it has some ridiculous standard.

Today I got to a flight school (and got all golds of course ) and tried the parachuting Nick mentioned, its really neat! You get this backpack and press o to pull the chute. So when you have one, bail out of a plane and have some fun. You should also be happy to know you can go really high this time, we're talkin like you can't see the ground and just clouds. Its neat being that high when you skydive. The skydive controls are very nice.

I really doubt it... and whats up with all the double ll's? I think you got your English confused with Spanish

...no comment Anyways, these are entirely different games so I see no way to compare and say one is better than the other.

Well, you can do it anyways, but I learned it by doing one of the driving school trainings. Its MUCH easier than GT3 golds ... holy crap that was the worst experience I ever had in my life like impossible and then you gotta do it again for 2 minutes perfect, this is a matter of doing something for 10 seconds perfect and you can try instantly over and over. Edit: Correction for above, I called a bike FCJ600, but I was confused, its FCR-900

Please write spoilers for things like this. Its an interesting surprise, but dont ruin it for others (saying you race him in a mission).

I guess this threads on probation, so stay out of it if you don't want any trouble (banning, explusion, etc.) If you have to come in here, make a polite. TLR, stay out of all the other threads... yadda yadda.

Yea I know, I was going to mention that but, I'm obviously not satisfied with that. But at least I can do it when I get to some gigantic hills for a bit. I hope theres a gameshark code or somethin later to modify one of the camera views. Driving school is pretty neat, just got done finishing it all gold Now you can make cars roll in the air as if they had wings (like Rush 2049). You just let off the gas and push the analog over and it will start rolling. It works great if you start off in a rolling position.

Umm.. dunno Anyways, intresting, theres an [edit]FCR-900[/edit], found because you have to use it in one of the missions, it seems superior to the PCJ600 in looks and speed. I think this bike might actually be the top dog. It looks just like a bike you'd see one of those crazy motorcycle groupies standing up on. My only big beef with GTASA is the lack of a good camera angle for driving. GTA3 had this great camera angle, just a tad above the car. But, like Vice City, San Andreas leaves this view out so you can only look somewhat above the car, too far above the car, or just go for the hood cam, sad really. Vice City was acceptable with this because of the flat terrain, but San Andreas, well you get blind sided and fly over hills only to find a car waiting at a stop light. Very hard to drive sometimes, especially when you put fog into the brew.

Well, you can try playing without any memory cards in once. Those things can cause a lot of pain sometimes if they are messed up.

lol I told ya man, as I said in the news thread, preording sucks. Just go pick it up. I always find it a Wal-Mart the day its out as long as I get there 6-9 hours after release where I live. I learned my lesson with VC. EBgames 2 day shipping, well including getting shipping STARTED and such and being here in time to be delivered to my house, it took 4 days. I went to Wal-Mart and I looked in the games section, sure enough about 4-5 Vice Citys were left sitting there. I was like oh my freakin gawd... no more preordering EVER . So I just bought it at Wal-Mart and sold a copy to a friend the next day (cause I knew there would be people that still wanted the game after it was sold out). Anyways, as for the planes, I'll say something about them once I get to them, but so far no helicopters or planes (sorry I'm not the type that tries to beat the game within a week of getting it, and thank god I don't have that kind of time on my hands nowadays). Ok a little more info for ya: You can drive into the water with a car, and still get out and start swimming away, even if someones on a mission with ya it is nice not looking at the water as certain death anymore. Caution: You are dangerously eager to get this game

lol that this got no spam replies, I guess its THAT bad. lmao locker up!

Isn't she a beaut? Sorry if I'm just saying things everyone already knows, but I didn't bother looking at a bunch of sites to find stuff this time around, I just waited to see things myself. As Doon mentioned the gang turfs thing, well what you do is kill like 3 of their gang in that territory, but has to be on foot, and you start a gangwar. Then theres 3 waves, each getting stronger that come at you. Its freakin hard unless you try to cheat the ai by running circles around blocks or something. But they are still hard to beat, they come in 3 different groups around the war area, and you're not supposed to leave that certain area once you start the war. I guess it deactivates after a shortwhile that you leave the area if you do. The territories you have add more money to a revenue in front of your home (first save point). But man, its really friggin hard for me right now to get them, even with 3 gang members helping! I have gone through about half of the map, this game is a true beauty, probably one of the greatest games ever created yet. Theres what seem like real length highways between cities, so you can get some serious speed (especially with nitrous). So don't think its too vacant somewhat like GTA3 or too crowded to gain speed like VC, cause this games got a bit of everything! Theres even a friggin mountain! The cars are much more tuned to the terrain since elevation changes alot now. So BF Injection (yes it makes a return and its friggin fast this time), 4 wheelers, mountain bikes, sanchez, rancher, regina (both also returning), etc. work much better to climb the extreme hill terrain on the outskirts of town. I really think you guys are gonna like this one, they listened to all our complaints and wants, so GTA3 features return and so do VC, making a perfect game (and I laugh when I used to say GTA3 city with VC features would make the best GTA, San Andreas is the bomb).

Yes it looks like the GTA3 one but it just looks better. It looks larger too. Another thing, you can play 2 players it seems, I guess one player plays as the girlfriend. Its activated by going to her doorstep and I assume deactivated the same way, I guess its like taking her back home.

Well it goes pretty fast, I already lost it cause I was on a mission so I couldn't really save it, so I'll have to find another one. But it looked nicer and it was pretty damn fast. This is great news, thats like one of my favorite cars.

Guess what I found today that makes a return... the Banshee! PCJ600 also is actually in the game, along with the packer and correction above, Savana doesnt come with hydraulics, but the first one you get does. You can upgrade cars to get the hydraulics/nitrous.

Well... thats what help does

mm well you can go run>regedit and looks for a zonealarm folder still present to delete... but doing something wrong can screw your computer so I advise caution if you try this.

I agree with the radar, but at least they planned on that a little by letting you place a marker where you plan on going (press O on the pause map wherever you want it and O again to disable it). I have used it quite a bit already as the marker is much easier to goto on the radar. The sun... lol well that made me think about the sun ingame, its somewhat annoying that theres a constant orange tint all the time, I hope theres a code or gameshark code later to lighten that stuff up or something. To Scorp: I haven't noticed much change in the cars but they do look different because of the new graphics. BTW two more cars: Clover - looks like a random mixture of two colors of car parts kinda like a junker, but it looks like a Sabre Turbo and isn't that slow at all Voodoo - Makes a return! This time its more like the Oceanview (in appearance only thank god), so this time no hydraulics, that new car (Carl is crouching in front of), now I know as "Savanna", takes care of that. It looks a lot like Ice Cube's (doughboy's) car in the movie Boyz in tha Hood. Picador - Like a car but with a truck type holding space in the back, thats the only way I can explain it. I know some cars like that in my town that are for a pest control company. Another comment... I like the new gun fire blasts and especially the EXPLOSIONS. I was so tired of the flashing orange light explosions. These are actually like fireballs. Much more entertaining and much more fun to explode stuff. One more thing, a little misleading about the "circle" gas cap thing. Some cars have them, but lots have a covering, so you can shoot at the sqaure gas tank cover, not some stupid little circle thing. I guess thats just for some older styled cars. Well off again to my (now) busy life bbl

Yeah, its looking like a gigantic game so far. Theres some neat missions. One quick note: Theres gas tanks now (little circle caps on cars), and you can explode the car easier by shooting them. Also, LOADING IS MUCH MUCH FASTER HALLEA FREAKIN LOO YA - it loads quite a bit when you turn the game on, theres about a 30 second waiting bar so I guess its all taken care of there. Some cars I have come across are: car that looks like voodoo (carl crouches in front of it in gtasa pic) - I put nitrous in that thing Buffalo - Some kinda more luxury car, pretty fast, kinda like deluxo Bicycle (also in pics) mountain bike (goes up hills and such much better) BF400 - Like the PCJ600 but not as fast Sanchez - still here HPV1000 - police bike, these mothers can book! Consider these the new PCJ600's for now as far as I'm concerned ... also fyi its hard to knock cops off bikes! Vincent - looks a bit like a bmw in the front, back tail lights are large sabre - still here Perennial car thats like a station wagon - still here Sandler - a normal truck Stratum - a newer age station wagon Virgo - Still here Glendale - Kinda like oceanview but better (have those ever been in mta? lol) Hermes - still here Of course the good ole high performance cop cars (good ole black and whites are back) Lots of old cars make a return, I could find more but I really want to play this with the little time I have! Hope this is somewhat sufficient.

Sorry but I cant answer that either! I've only played a few hours now (of course they always save the helis and planes for later), but man trust me I really want to play this game more, its fun! Some more things... I tried nitrous, its awesome! Your car goes extremely fast and things blur by (things also blur by when going fast normally but not nearly as much). If you've ever player Need For Speed Underground, well its that kind of blur. Really cool! Cars can be modded to have things, I haven't looked at it alot yet, but besides nitrous theres upgrades like different tops, exhaust pipes, etc. Nothing insane, but its neat. You can get people from your gang on the street to follow you by locking on the them and hitting up on the dpad, you can also tell them to stay put or follow you. Driving is a lot more realistic now, it takes a lot longer to stop, things blur by at fast speeds (as mentioned above), turning, and other little improvements. You can rob houses at night, you have to get a certain car to do it, then you go inside and sneak around with a noise meter, getting whatever it is, then sneaking out and loading it into the mail-like truck. When you're done you drive away back to a lockup. I don't know much except in the game it said theres "many houses" to rob. You can aim manually now with handguns and such. I hope I haven't made any of you Europeans too anxious for the game Edit: Theres also a marker you can place on the map because its so big and theres so many icons, i use it quite a bit because the roads can be difficult sometimes. There are huge hills! So there's lots of topsy turvy roads!

Sorry no-can-do (I'm without a camera) but I'm sure theres somebody getting the game soon that will. Some things I noticed while reading the instruction manual and also from playing: In car controls theres nitrous under circle... you know what that means You can swim The combat system is a lot better You can learn new fighting moves at karate places if you want to know more just let me know I'll try and tell some interesting things.
