This is making me mad. I'm going after the Under the Radar achievement where you have to fly under all bridges over water. I've done all of them and now I'm at the last one(if you look on a map it's Plumbers Skyway) and the game even popped with a trophy over the bridge like all the previous so that I knew where to go. Well hell I'm here and I've flown under this fucker 7 times and nothing. I've blown up the map to make sure I'm flying over the part that crosses water(It's the freeway that connects Alderney to the area where the jail is).
What am I doing wrong :/

Yeah, I did too. The shirt really didn't go well with my suit pants and wingtips. :lolraYne said:
EDIT: That's weird, Smokey. I actually did this last night and didn't have any problems. What map has the trophy icon? The mini-map in the corner or the full start-menu map? I used the start-menu map and I never saw any icons. I guess I never noticed it on the mini-map.

Another scripted chase mission. Just follow him until he stops or crashes.
What? :lolTuvoc said:
I don't think anyone's found a spawn location. It seems to not even have one at all. So you may be screwed.Jirotrom said:guys... i fed my Lamborghini to the fishes during an idiot move in a race... any idea where to get another
Perhaps a reload is in order?
I understand it replacing the top of what you're wearing since it does the same to everyone, but having to replace the whole suit is one weird glitch.Tuvoc said:I had on the black suit w/ the open collar but the happiness island shirt is now the top for that suit. I can't change it. So now I have to get a whole new suit
Probably has something to do with th suits top and bottoms being tied together. *shrugs*

You have 2 chances to get an Infernus (Lamborghini in GTA IV) as a guaranteed spawn.
i.) completing Bernie's missions
ii.) stealing one during Stevie's car thefts. It will only spawn when he sends you the MMS detailing the Infernus he wants, and you can then jack the clones off the roads.
Brucie's races are a crapshoot, since the spawns are random. At times, you will see a nice lineup of sports cars; others you will see the low~mid tier range of cars. The good news is races aren't one chance events. ^

If you still need to fly under the westernmost bridge, you have to fly under the bridge supports, instead of where the water flows.Smokey Bones said:

I went to WAGs boutique and all I got was a sniff
I've tried playing the game with auto aim off and I've now given up trying. My aiming and co-ordination is so bad.
I'm usually ok at shooting games, but I'm just not getting the hang of GTAIV without autoaim. I reckon if I learned how to play the game without auto-aim from the start, I'd be fine, but now that I'm about half way through, its pretty hard since the missions are starting to get tough.

yeah I tried this as soon as you mentioned that taxi's can be your best friends. It really makes redoing missions a lot less stressful because I can just get into a taxi and get to my destination rather than spend 10 minutes getting from one side of the map to the other.ElyrionX said:
You know, I think that GTA4 is using the PS3 memory to the max. When you press the PS button, is it often really slow and laggy for anyone else? It's like it takes a second for it to process and catch up. I have a theory that if in the next firmware, Sony cuts down again on the memory usage of the XMB, the performance of GTA will improve (not that I'm saying it's bad, but that it will get better than it already is).

Didn't IGN and Gamespot do a more substantial game guide for previous GTA games? It seems like they are either taking their sweet time making one, or they are just passing the baton over to gamefaq. I can't tell the diff.
I'm not talking about a full-on walkthrough; I'm more specifically talking about maps for each pigeon location, jump, package, ect.

I turned auto-aim off within the first few hours of the game and never looked back... substantially increased the enjoyment for me, I really like playing it tactically and using the cover system.
It's a shame you can't actually do anything with the money you earn throughout the game. Since after you complete Stevie's list, you can bring any car there and get more money from him. Basically grabbing vehicles from right outside the shop and backing it in for cash.Darunia said:
To really max it out, you could do what I did and park your exotic car at your Bohan hideout. Drive it around the block so more copies spawn. Then re-park it and take to duplicate to him. $11,000+ a pop. :lol
Nope. Usual GAF thread subtitle fare.Laurent said:
it's definitely the best GTA game hands down. and one of the best games to come out this generation. I think it still has a few problems that need to be fixed. Like over-complex controls and mission repetiveness. The lack of checkpoint system on some missions is also a bit of a problem. Overall though, I think it's really amazing what Rockstar has created here. I'm looking forward to the DLC, and future installments.
PS - I never liked the GTA franchise.

I still like it, but with all the lack of variety, invincible enemy chase missions with their preset conclusions, basic lack of things to do and a lot of issues that I don't feel like going over again, a 10 this game is not.

Just did the other ending, which made the first one I did look like shit for a few reasons.
Dimitri is a much better villain. Having the final encounter with him was much more exciting than having it with Pegerrino, who suddenly became a bad guy out of nowhere. That was stupid. Also, having Roman die was much more tragic since, you know, Roman actually mattered. Kate was a crappy character. She was an annoying prude who barely came up at all. Basically, the ending where Roman dies has both a villain and victim I care about, rather than one I couldn't give a shit about. Still, I plan to keep my other save as my main one because I'd much rather have Kate dead than Roman.
