Are there any bulletproof, fireproof or damageproof cars hidden in this game? I already finished the game but I've been thinking about creating a new profile just so I can use cheats and make different decisions on who lives.

I OCD about the cars in the regard that now I have a SuperGT in my reserved parking, I am never going to touch it ever again, same with my Comet, now I've done the races I wanted to do, its just gonna stay there and look pretty.
I really wish it was done so that once you put it there, one would always spawn unless you replaced it, I just end up taking a taxi to missions and jacking something if I need to.
Its silly, you want the rare cars, but then when you do you realise they're too rare to risk losing in one of the missions. I especially hate the ones where you'll drive up in your new car, then you go have to drive a specific vehicle, so your car stays at the mission spawn and vanishes, or if you restart a missions you lose the ride you brought with you, even if the mission starts at the spot you parked it at.

Yeah, I know that. I thought he meant that he could access it in the pause menu.
Could someone clear something up for me?
Are doing the things like Little Jacob's delivery missions, Roman's cab missions, and the vigilante missions required for 100%?
If so, how do you know how far you are? How much is needed? Are there rewards? I heard somewhere then when you clear the vigilante stuff, there is no reward.

Anyone who's played any of the GTAs already knows that you never take any vehicle you want to keep to a mission for that very reason.Darkflight said:
I maxed out all my parking spaces with the rare cars and only drive them to dates, stores and general screwing around after I already saved the game at the hideout.
If I want to use a rare car for anything risky, I just leave the island with mine and when I head back home to park it, the streets are lined with them. On Bohan particularly. So I just park mine nice and safe and take one of those.
Yes, and you know you're done because you either get an achievement or you can't do it anymore.j-wood said:
Are there any other clothing stores besides the first russian one you have to go to and the 2 Perseus stores? I haven't unlocked the final island yet, so I don't know if there are any there. I'm asking because I found a nice pair of shoes and pants, but the tops just aren't what I'm looking for. Everything is a horrible looking sweater/ski jacket or an equally bad looking suit. So ummm... where do I go to buy something nice to wear?

I don't think there is anyJamesfrom818 said:
You do know that you have a map that comes witht the game that has all the store locations pointed out right?TTG said:
No clothing stores in Alderny, Dukes or Bohan. 3 in Algonquin, 1 in Broker. Plus you get various clothes from missions that you get to keep and things like visiting the Statue of Happiness gives you a tourist t-shirt etc.
I'm decked out with a black and while motorcycle jacket, a pair of really dark blue denim jeans and some full white sneakers that I stole from a hospital. :lol But you can buy those in some store in Algonquin.

One time she asked me if I knew where she could buy some cocaine for a friend. I loled. Also I tend to like some of the sillier missions. I liked the one where you kidnapped the chick and she kept grabbing the wheel. I was literally so suprised I laughed out loud.
Not really, sometimes there really is no racing going on. How many did you do?TTG said:
It really does depend on where you call him from and what time it is.
Yeah, I was rolling during thatStoney Mason said:

Laughed even more when Niko

I was thinking there were some that weren't marked because the selection seems very limited compared to the other GTA games. Not that I spend so much time dressing up the guy, but I'm in the same shirt/jacket that I had on when I got off the boat and I've already unlocked the third island. Good to know that you get different shit from missions, I didn't think that would happen in this one as it's more "serious".

I was just in a police chase and the police car was so damaged the driver got out, walked to a nearby parked car and commandeered it!
This happened when I was free roaming with UncleGuito a few days ago.Opus Angelorum said:
I stole a firetruck and followed him up some parking structure, spraying people with the hose all the way. When we made it to the top, he tried to push some lady over the edge, but alerted the cops. After screwing around with them for a while, he jumped in a car and tried to escape, but the cop jumped in the firetruck I brought up there and started chasing him. Then the other cop dragged some guy out of a sedan and started chasing him too!
All the time I'm laughing at all the action in the background.
help me, plz.
thanks
i'm at the part where i have to pick between Dwayne or Playboy X. i turned off auto-save and i tried both. Kill Dwayne will get you $25,000 but you cut all tie with Playboy X. Kill Playboy X and you get his house but no money from Dwayne, but he'll stick with you.
i don't know which one to pick to advance through the game. is it a story changing decision by picking one over the other?? or it doesn't matter?

Doesn't matter.so_awes said:
All that'll happen is if you take out Playboy, as you said, you get his house. But you also befriend Duayne and he'll eventually give you the perk of calling in his friends for help if you need it.
You don't get any perks from Playboy at all.

How do you unlock the Rocket Launcher in the shops?
I've done 73 missions and I still can't buy the damn thing.

Does he sell rockets though? I must be overlooking them if he does.raYne said:People actually buy weapons in shops? Just get it from.Jacob
It's cheaper and he delivers.

I must be blind, I didn't think he sold body armor either, until my brother pointed out the whole top of the trunk.Darunia said:Yeah he does, just click on the rocket launcher in his trunk

I'm sure that this has already been mentioned, but the 100% club contest has been extended to 5/19. If I understand it correctly, if you 100% it within the next 10 days, you'll get the 'key to the city' trinket thing mailed to you.
Of course, the last time the Social Club updated my stats was like a week ago, so I'm not entirely convinced that this will go down smoothly.

Considering that I'll never ever get all the pigeons or have any motivation to do the jumps outside of actual gameplay use, I'll never be a part of that club.Revengeance said:
:lol :/
I've also said it before, but it needs repeating. The whole social club thing has been a waste of time, so far.
Oh, he was there when youWizpig said:
first met Elizabeta.. (Patrick McCreary) The Irish guy.
As for the first mission with him, uhh.. can't remember.
Sniper support?
It's nothing in-game. Just some crap they mail to you so you can put in on your dresser. :lolMMaRsu said:
edit:
...and the Social Club still doesn't say that I've beaten the game. It's probably been a week now with daily GTA gaming since. Good job.. *golf clap*
