Thanks. Guess I was just calling at the wrong time or something. Didn't come with last time I offered to take him to play darts. I'll keep trying.
OMFG PLEASE HELP!!!!!!
Please help!
OK so I'm up to the second to the last(?) mission where you hunt down Dimitri in the Old Casino.
Follow the baddies to the Old Casino? Not a problem. Get rid of the baddies once you get there? Not a problem. Get in the boat and chase Dimitri flying away in the chopper? Not a problem. But now.....Jacob comes in with his own chopper, and ladies and gentlemen, we have a problem.
The problem is, how the HELL do you catch up to Jacob and fly under his chopper? The guy only flies in front of you for a few seconds and then flies off!!!! WTF?????? Why is it that as I'm approaching his chopper, he seemingly descends to the water, then *immediately* takes off without me, causing me to lose Dimitri and fail the mission!! Is this a glitch?
I've failed this mission during this scene almost TEN times already, trying to reach Jacob's chopper. Is there something about the boat that I'm not doing right? Is there some sort of turbo button to go faster and catch Jacob?

They really failed to make me care about Kate. and in general the further into the story the less interesting the characters. i think it peaks with 3 leaf clover.

It'd be awesome if the next GTA has a female lead. Karen might be interesting.
I agree with both of these. A female lead would be a nice change (SR2 ftw) and I've thought that aJamesfrom818 said:

The missions in Alderney are such an improvement over the Algonquin missions. I was getting bored of the main missions in the middle section of the game, now they are finally mixing things up and even showing off new gameplay elements. I can tell the ending is going to be amazing.
WTF! YOU FOOL!BobFromPikeCreek said:

Nobody gives a flying fuck about kate, we all think that, and that is why the "real" ending is that, in my opinion.
I mean c'mon, Roman is alive, married, he's going to have a son and all that shit and that bitch Kate is dead.
Best ending!

I'm guessing you've done it then, don't think it would tell you you're a vigilante if you'd not finished the vigilante missions.
raYne said:
Yeah, I see it that way now, having completed the game.
I did everything for Roman, and
doing the deal so that he and Mallorie could have a good life, only to lose him
When I play the game through again, I'll definitely be taking the alternative route.
Kate, while nice at times, was a bit of a bitch.
I wouldn't wish death upon anyone, but least of all, Roman, given the choice.

I think they missed a big opportunity to make date's and friendships more interesting by occasionally giving you random missions (via phone) while on the date or hanging out with someone. Something like Jacob calling for help while you're on a date with Alex... "If it's ok with you we need to run a quick errand..." "Ok... oh my god they're shooting at us!"
Also the ability to take out more than one friend at once would have been nice, and a bit of a time saver. That would be awesome to be able to get Jacob, Roman, and Brucie into a car headed for the strip club and the possibilities for the conversations would have been great.

Yea
Kate was insanely forced, evne if you did bother going on dates with her, there's absolutely no character devlopment on her part. And my god, the dialouge during the ride to the church...I wanted to drive off a cliff. I'd go as far as saying the game may have been better off not giving you a choice at the end, as the narrative works so much better and I'm glad I took the deal my first playthrough.
I actually felt bad about
, the only reasonable character if you ask me and I wanted Nico to start a normal life now that all the crap was dealth with. Roman is such a 2 dimensional fuckbag
. Which in turn brings me to the people saying this game might just have the createst story in videogames yet. You people are fucking insane. The story started of great with a ton of potential but ultimately it crashes and burns as soon as you get to second part of the first island.
I'm now at the final mission and it is utter fucking shit. I've made around 4 attempts so far. The first time I didn't get to the bike soon enough and
got away. The second time I made it all the way to ramp only to have my bike hit some random piece of garbage on the beach which in turn launched my bike 100 feet into the air causing me to do a bunch of flips and die.... The third time I made it into the chopper only to have the helicopter controlls to be somehow even worse than they normally are, needles to say I died. I'm tired of having to do the whole damn boring shootout section again just so I get to attempt to finish this damn game.
This game is the prime example of piss poor game design. It does a number of things very well but there is also so much wrong with this game, it's not even funny. All the sorry excuses for game critics need to be fucking ashamed of themselfs. This game doesn't even come close to warranting a 10/10, 5/5 stars or whatever the fuck they use to indicate the highstest possible recommendation.

I wish he got shot instead

Speaking of pigeons, I was skimmed through one of the location vids posted yesterday and there's NO WAY some of those would've been found without a guide and through normal gameplay means.
One that stands out the most is the one in a hole on the 2nd story of the Airport terminal. Basically you can only reach it by throwing a blind grenade into the area. Though I suppose you can sorta hear that one if close enough.
However, there's another that you have to toss another blind grenade 3 stories up, through a window and into some random abandoned apartment. WTF is that shit? :lol

So I've decided to beat the story today.
Cot DAMN these missions are getting harder. I'm basically down to last two mob threads (unless another one creeps in, which I doubt). Lots of fun, varied, multi-tiered missions in all types of different environs. Fun stuff.

The airport hole is actually a spot, where I would have looked, if I did it all by myself. (with the sniper rifle of course)
Most ridicolous pigeon was probably 26 on the Gamesradar map. You either jump out of a helicopter there, or you make an epic overcomplicated climb tour over the train station roof on the opposite side. :lol
Also did a bit more multiplayer. Can be fun, if the host gets the setting right, but there are so many ways to fuck it up........
Hoo-ray! I'm not the only one!Danielsan said:
I find Roman to be an annoying fucker. I think he works for what he's supposed to be (big dreamer, etc.), but it felt like
Kate was the only who was actually trying to help Niko live a normal life. The only person trying to pull him out of a life of crime.
It's such a shame that the game started out with the whole "Niko's trying to start anew in America!" theme but then quickly dragged him into the usual GTA sociopath stereotype. I mean, the first five or so missions and the last five or so seemed like they were connected. Everything in between just said "fuck you!" to consistency. Robbing a bank? Really? Trying to start a new life, and you decide to rob a bank? As awesome as that mission was, it didn't fit with the story. Almost nothing did.
Oops. I ranted. D:
Also fucking stunt jump 22. I can't do it. ):

Finished the last mission in one go, you guys suck! :lol Enjoyed it thoroughly, was real seat-of-the-pants stuff. But
I love it when videogames make me feel really shitty, that depth of emotional response is something new to modern games and it's a trend I wish to continue.
It took 40 hours and I did 70% in all. Now onto the side missions and lots and lots of multiplayer. Whee!!
poor Roman! I was gutted when it happened, I had no idea. I just stood there afterwards, looking at his body, I was in total shock.

Hey guys, i already asked this, but got no answers: how do you delete a saved file of GTA 4 on the 360?
I want to delete the awful ending and just keep the awesome ending, sounds good to you guys?
You know, i'm asking because maybe there are things you can only do after a certain ending, but i don't think so.

Oh, by the way, i didn't think so at the beginning, but ultimately... it was a good choice to put there 2 endings.
Why?
Well, because *ending spoilers*

some people hated Roman, some people like me liked him! So you can keep "in your heart :lol" the ending you liked the best, meanig i want Roman to be a good father and have the kid.
