Is anyone else annoyed at how some of the fire escape stairs are not climbable? Im pretty sure its a glitch too.... its like the first step has a little gap or something that cause Niko to not be able to climb up... sometimes you can jump and glitch your way over it - but Im pretty sure it was meant to be climbable...

My sentiments exactly. I've said this before, GTAIV is by far the best game I've ever played. Every GTA after this is only going to go bigger and better because Rockstar has nailed down the formula to near perfection.
What the hell does that even mean? When I have 12 points left I have tried getting 2x 6 points and 2x 12 points but it doesn't end. What does finishing with a double mean?Tiduz said:

Not sure if it mattered, but I made the compassionate choice. Later, when IIamthegamer said:so did (back in Vlad's story
have an effect on the game? Weird that it gave me a choice. Seemed pretty small time.killing that guy for Vlad because he took Roman's money
killed Vlad

OK? Nobody said it was.
If you can't see WHY they were able to deliver the things they were in GTA:SA compared to IV then I don't know what to tell you.

I saw him in Aldernay as a random person. You get a cutscene, drive a block, kill some people with him, and get some money. I don't know if there's more after that though.

The smaller circles on the board are worth triple and double the number you land on. So if you have 12 points left, you must get the OUTER circle in the 6 section of the board. Its the very outer part. For a triple, you'd get the middle ring that runs around the mid-section of each number.
I think the reason I like GTA more than Crackdown and Saints Row is the difficulty. Granted I never played the actual release of SR (good couple of hours in the demo though) but still, I like the difficulty presented is GTA. Free aim is glorious and reminds me how boring/easy Crackdown became, even on the hardest difficulty.
Heck, I can still get on top of most buildings in GTA and the pay off is way better than that of climbing the agency building.
GTA may have some technical issues, most that I don't notice, but I acknowledge that they exist for everyone and it is a shame, but the experience provided is still better than Crackdown and Saints Row despite those issues.'
Pushing someone off a ledge they where sitting on into the water is way cooler than anything I did in Crackdown and funnier than getting hit by a speeding car in SR.
I don't know what everyone was expecting out of the game but I love it and it is only going to get better for me when a good pal of mine gets it and we're doing god knows what.

Yeah, 2x 6 should work. You're getting the outside ring on 6, right? Not actually hitting 6 two times?
And I have trouble remembering where I met two people(If you've done 3 leaf clover you should know) -
I don't remember who Saint Micheal is, and Ray something I have to do missions for.
Lil Jacob is awesome!
I just finished the mission
This game is so awesome.
I just finished the mission
where you meet Dimitri at the warehouse for your pay after killing off Mikhail. Lil Jacob isn't some snob that cares only for himself but he cares for you. Yeah it's scripted but he's awesome nonetheless. Brucie is pretty crazy character though
This game is so awesome.

Story wise, mission wise. The actual city. As I've said in a previous post, I feel 4's story is disjointed and lacks a real focus. SA's story also failed to deliver when it was all said and done too, though.
Mission wise... it's not even a contest. 4 is completely lackluster for the most part. It feels like I've went back to 3. There are far too many "Chase ____" or "Go here and kill ____" missions. They all blur together to me and weren't very memorable. There were so many of those in SA.
City wise, it's a matter of opinion. I like the country side and all of that, and I've always disliked that we were only getting a city in 4.
Smokey Bones said:
Well you were trying to justify why they weren't able to deliver. I understand why, but I don't care. They weren't able to and that makes the game inferior. If the next game is better because this is a test bed then awesome.

Wollan said:
On the dart board the coloured sections on the outside of each "number" section are double the value of that number - and the interior coloured sections of the section are triple.
So take the number 20 ... the coloured section close the outside will get you 40pts if you hit it - whereas the interior coloured section would get you 60pts. So when it says to finish on a double you have to get the correct amount of points while hitting the double of a number.
If you need 12pts then you would have to aim for outside coloured but on the 6 section. That would get you 12 by hitting a double.

Early on, when he had a knife, instead of fighting him/taking the knife from him (which no doubt would've killed me) I kept punching and pushing until the glass behind him shattered and i kicked him out of the building. Very nice.Himuro said:
Wollan said:
I figured... I wasn't even trying for the achievement and instead taking my time and doing a lot of side stuff, but then I looked in the stats screen and saw I was very close. Now it kind of sucks to realize I missed it by so little. Thanks for letting me know though, I won't bother rushing to beat it now.

If you have exactly 12 points left and hit the outside ring of the 6 then you should win the game. Hitting the outside ring of the 12 would put you over though. If the 2x6 doesn't work then it may be a bug, or it registered as a single . . .
Himuro said:
I'm around mid 50 percent and see where he's coming from, so many of the missions are similar to the point where they blend. It's either kill a ton of people then escape from the police, or some sort of chase. While they're all "different" none of it has been really memorable, only a handful have stood out to me so far.

chubigans said:
I tried to play it safe the first time, the police don't stop coming and eventually a few snuck to the side and destroyed me. Then I tried to escape, could only find a crappy car, got knocked off the bridge and killed by police beats. Then I eventually beat it but was mainly complaining about the lack of checkpoints because redriving there and rekilling everything wasn't fun the fifth time.

On another note, I think the game is still amazing. I'm still having a blast a week later, as much as I did the first day. Very rare for me to feel such a way for any game in a longgggg time.

multiplayer kind of sucks.
maybe I just need to play against gaf people or something. I got invites when I was first playing, but they dropped off and now that I want to play multi I aint getting none.
