re: Grand Theft Auto IV

Apart from the Achievement and 2.5% added, does shooting all 200 pigeons unlock anything in game? What about shooting every tenth one (like in GTA 3, where finding every tenth package would unlock a new weapon at your hideout)? I've only found 7...

Thanks

nope. Only incentive to do it is the achievement or 100%. Otherwise, it's an utter waste of time.

re: Grand Theft Auto IV

^ Well those two are incentive enough for me especially since there is an achievement for 100% completion too.

Anybody know where I could find these vehicles:
- Comet
- Coquette
- SWAT Van (Buffalo?)

...on the map, parked, if possible (ie: w/o having to do a particular mission or attract a high wanted level).

Would driving a particular vehicle increase the chance of either of these two vehicles appearing?

You think thats bad, wait until you start doing the stunt jumps, some of them arent that bad but wait until you get to the ones that just wont give you credit no matter what you do. I told my girlfriend last night I would rather have had to kill 400 pigeons then do any of the stunt jumps, they drove me nuts and caused me to abandon the 100% goal unfortunatly.

In terms of those vehicles, here is a map that shows the location of all of the 30 vehicles for Stevie, the Buffalo isnt one of them but the other two are. In terms of the Buffalo, I spotted it in downtown of the third island at one point but I cant remember where, sorry I couldnt provide more help then that.

Spoiler

I put it into a spoiler tag just in case people dont want to see where certain cars are, just click on the map and it will open in a bigger window and make it easier to read it.

Florian aka Bernie

Spoiler

that mission where I followed him jogging in the park. Talk about gay. The way he ran cracked me up. Not to mention that mission ended with me taking him home on a moped.

re: Grand Theft Auto IV

I almost forgot to mention it, Im not sure what your take on using cheat codes are or why you want the Buffalo but you can actually spawn one using the cheat for it, just dial in your phone the following number... 2275550100, so if you just want to mess around with it then just dont save if you are completely against cheats, I personally could care less and used them once I beat the game since there is a way to spawn the black chopper so I could fly low and destroy the city with it and then try and get into fire fights with the police chopper when it shows up.

Here is a link to the cheats Im talking about that were posted by DookieMowf earlier in this thread, all credit goes to him for posting it...

re: Grand Theft Auto IV

Pimping - i've already delivered all of Stevie's cars so i don't think those vehicles would still be there...

Earlier today i started and finished 20 "current crimes" (aka Vigilante levels in the Stats menu) pretty quickly. I'm glad you can choose from a list of three each time you opt to do one...i purposely chose "criminal on foot" every time it appeared because it was the easiest (only one criminal to hunt down, and he obviously had no car and usually had a weak weapon). If it didn't appear as a current crime, "gang-related violence" was the next best crime to resolve because again they had no means of transport, which made them easier to kill even in large numbers. I recommend everybody else doing the same if they wanna get through it quickly.

I also completed all the Algonquin and Broker/Dukes/Bohan Most Wanted missions. The Algonquin ones were alot easier than the others IMO. I'll start and finish off the Alderney ones tomorrow, then onto Brucie's races.

I assumed you needed certain vehicles to acomplish certain jumps? some look pretty hard even with a car. I've only tried a few casually before officially going for 100%, and would often get the line "not good enough". I figured you needed a bike on some, or a comet or some other fast as hell vehicle. If some are glitched, then that sucks.

all I have to do now is stunt jumps, hang out with all the friends, do the vigilante stuff, and find all stevie's cars. I can do that by friday. Hopefully the damn social club website will update my info before november. It still says I haven't beat the single player yet, and did so awhile ago.

Can you still set up dates once you beat the game with the ladies off that website?

good question, im holding off on beating the game so i dont miss anything

re: Grand Theft Auto IV

yes, although I've been ignoring mine since I beat the game. They still call and want to do things though. Kiki never gets rid of the wanted level anymore when I call her, and Carmen's perk is useless now that I'm done with the missions. You can still date them for fun if you want to hear them moaning and stuff, but it's pointless after you beat the game.

The man dates with packie, brucie, and jacob still have to be done to get them over a certain percentage for an achievement and towards the 100% though.
