They cant get to you, but cops are still at shooting range, plus depending and how many stars you have they get their helicopter out...its always fun trying to snipe the pilot.

yep, did that while getting the pigeon on top of the air traffic control tower. Took me like 4 times to get it because stepping in that area gets you 4 stars or so. It was hilarious watching that thing drop like a rock. I'd assume if you shot a pilot like that in real life, that the thing would still stay up a little better than that though.

For 100% completion it states that you must.....

Friends - Open all unique abilities and complete all activities for all five friends (except Roman & Dwayne)

Now what Im not understanding is, I dont count 5 friends unless you include Dwayne and Roman, because without them then you only have Jacob, Brucie and Packie. Am I missing something here, Im tired so it would be real easy for me to be overlooking something, but the way I see it, there are only 3 friends other then Dwayne and Roman.

Anyone get the Zit feature to work on the Social club? i tried it yesterday and logged in today...theres nothing. Also man some dude beat the game in 9 hrs, thats insane...it took me 1 day 9 hours and 27 minutes. Oh and you get some pretty neat downloads at the Social club when you finish the story.

If you have a sniper and RPG, theres a building right across Happiness island. Its by Star junction, not too tall not too short, land there and you can cause some nice riots...one of my favorites spots.

I just use the cheats and not save... when can I find a helicopter?

there's lag with the site because of the huge amount of people using it. That's why they extended the deadline to get 100% in the game.

At the Helitour, Brucie, or start off the riot right by getting one at the police station....or spawn one if you're just messing around.

Yes, only packie, jacob, and brucie count for the 100%. The reason why is spoiled below.

Spoiler

Depending on how your game went, Roman and/or Dwayne may not be living. So, they removed those two from the equation.

maybe, maybe not. It's probably possible if you only do missions and use cabs to go everywhere. Then only save if you beat the mission the first time, and quickly at that.

Thats what I figured. When they say you have to complete each activity for each friend, are they talking about the ones that are available when you go to call a friend I take it? Im getting close to 100% I think, still a little ways to go but Im sitting at 89.25% with only 5 races for Brucie and 45 Stunt Jumps to go, assuming Ive done all my activities for each friend that is. It would have made it a lot easier if there was some sort of in-game checklist that updated as you finished things because I get the feeling that Im going to get to the end and not be at 100% and not know what I need to do anyways.

that's just a graph of what each friend needs to get credit. I'm sure you could try to fill it in from what you remember doing, or just do it again in like an hour.

I'm going to try to knock out the ******* pigeons tonight just to get done with it. The races and stunt jumps should be a little more enjoyable. I even have fun doing the police missions.

What kind of downloads are there? I beat the game but for some reason the website still says that I havent finished my story yet, so Im not sure whats going on there. Just wondering what the perks are once you do get credit for beating it.

Thanks, thats what I was doing on paper already but I wasnt sure if I was wasting my time or not. Good luck with the pigeons, have you done the 9 races through Brucie yet? I was told they do count towards 100% which sucks, although they are pretty easy to win. Ive only completed 4 of them so I have a ways to go still. Some races and some stunt jumps should be all that stand in my way of 100% for the most part, although I need 45 or so of the stunt jumps.
