Re: **The Official Grand Theft Auto 4 Thread**

Just found the one you're talking about. Completed it the first try (although it was not pretty at all lol). It's really easy getting to it if you have a bike

I hit it twice but it keeps saying not good enough, i used a Comet. Also, hitting a ramp and bailing out at full speed = very entertaining...i might have to try a bike.

Is there a way to show which radio station is coming on, or what song is currently playing?

Re: **The Official Grand Theft Auto 4 Thread**

Yep, call the radio station and they will send you a text with the name of the song and artist.

I can die all I want and there's no huge penalty, right? I know getting arrested you lose weapons, but when you die is it just money?

I accidently did a police car mission yesterday and it auto saved (I'd done an hour of dying/mayhem before that, not intending to save).

Just making sure that I didn't screw up my game, I've got saves pretty close so I could go back, but all I did was use ammo and die for an hour having fun.

I'm so used to other games where you don't want to die much, or that's a penalty, but I don't think it matters here.

Not on the PS3. As long as you have your own saves you're set. The autosave slot is a "backup," a sort of safety net just in case you forget to save...

I usually do a "sleep-save" right before I decide to do other stuff. Then, if it auto saves and I didn't want it to, it doesn't matter. Just re-load your regular save.

Yeah, I know...I just can't remember if I did a sleep save or not, I'll just load my last mission and see where I'm at...but if it was after a hard mission then I'm just out some ammo and money, right?

You dont lose your weapons if you die mgo

If you have a vest armour I think you lose that though

!@#$ Snow Storm.

Im convinced this mission is impossible....

I got this on only two tries somehow (the first time I accidentally blew myself up with a grenade). My wanted level managed to clear just as a cop was about to enter it and I somehow managed to escape.

For what it's worth, my getaway car was one of those slow trucks. I'm assuming I just got lucky.

Cool...I've got more than enough cash to re-load my ammo that I used in my spree, and buy a new vest. I'll just be more careful in the future.

Re: **The Official Grand Theft Auto 4 Thread**

How do you blow up the armored trucks for the cash?

I dont have a rocket launcher yet so i could only think of one thing, take it to a gas station where those tanks were and shoot it with the tanks nearby.

I took one to some off the road storage spot and threw a cocktail on it and the cops decided they would come to arrest me for starting a fire although there were no cops around at the time... and no the cocktail didnt work :/

I don't know what I did, I just sprinted straight out the way I came and made it to a car...First time, didn't have to re-do that mission at all. I can see how it'd be hard though, I musta just gotten lucky.

I got all turned around and went to a bunch of dead ends before I finally got out of the building. I went around the entire building on my first try, and I think there's only one way in/out, but there is a ladder around the back of the building. I seriously found the worst getaway car in the world...that thing was slow as hell, but I somehow escaped. I thought I had no chance.
