So anyone close(already have)to completing any tasks off the social club? My goal was to reach the driving first and am 38% done with that...but I'll probably be reaching jacked cars first.
Yeah, I just can't manage to clear some of these. I tried to do the one that goes from Alderny over the water to Algonquin, first try I made it with an Infernus just barely and flipped over a railing and it didn't count, second time I used a motorcycle and was short, third try wasn't even close. After each failed try I need to find a new vehicle and drive to Alderny again, fun.
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.
To anyone who's been dating a lot: do your picture messages disappear after you shut off the console? I was collecting them when I got the first one, but when I went to play again they were all gone. I don't delete any messages, and Stevie's car messages are there, but my girlfriend's messages have all disappeared.
I'm a bit disappointed. Those would be awesome to collect.
Social Club still hasn't updated for me at all. What a joke that whole thing is. Anyway, I think one of my favorite things in this game was driving home completely trashed while Packie sang "Danny Boy". That just had me rolling for some reason.
It's such a dark turn, narratively. I mean, the whole game
they really set it up so you can make some kind of small moral progress, and when you finally let yourself be guided by the dictates of someone you really care about, FUCKING BLAM.
Wtf, just did a Brucie race on the third island, and when the race was over, I saw a pigeon sitting on top of a wall. I shot it, and suddenly I hear a lot of civilian screaming, and the subtitles "Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaase leeeeeeeeaaaaave!" was shown at the bottom of the screen. I lol'd, maybe because I'm tired after the studies.

Just bumped into Jeff for the final time, did anyone else literally laugh out loud for his final scene with Niko and during the aftermath? It was a bit dark if you really think about it but it just made me explode into rapturous laughter.
WTF? I can get into the Story Gang part of the Social Club, but if I try to go to the 100% Club, it tells me that my completion is 0%. I am confuzzled. It has my story completion time correct too.
My addiction level, after 57:42:25 - Buying in Bulk :lol :lol
hit the 60 hour mark today... just hunting pigeons and looking for stunt jumps now. i'm only 68% done so i have almost no clue as to what else is going to fill up 32% of the game.
I'm hopping on XBL in about 30 minutes to play some multiplayer with some friends if anyone is up for it. Send a FR to Cornballer and I'll send you an invite.
Okay this'll sound weird but here we go: is it me or are the police harder once you finish the story? I've just been pissing about post-story and I've been killed more times than I was during the whole game. I've seen more fed cars and swat wagons too. It's great. At the end of the game
I got a phone call from the Fed-Handler and he said that I wouldn't be getting their help any more. Is this it? Are the gloves off now that my handler isn't stopping the feds from chasing me down?
I guess it's all subjective, I may just be pulling sprees nearer to cops, but they do seem a bit more mental than during the game, almost back to their old keystone cops-selves.
Still got a shitload to do in the city but I really don't know if I'll 100% it. The stunt jumps and pigeons are such hard work... 100 gamer points though, pretty tasty. I'm doing the txt car stealing missions now, they're great because they make you learn what the boroughs are called and pay close attention to your surroundings. They should have been included much earlier in the game though, as a way of learning the city. Brucie's were fun but waaaay too easy, this and more taxi missions would have helped you learn the city before you start having wild chases all over it.
I used the cheats once I'd finished the story to get my 100%, they don't stop you getting 100%, check here to see what cheats block which achievements (if you're on the 360), if in doubt, load a save, enter a cheat, see if it says its blocking something, if not (none did for me as I had the affected achievements already) then you're fine.
Spawning a copter to pigeon hunt/get to
Stevie's
cars quicker and spawning the FIB car to do the most wanted/spawning a bike next to a stunt jump rather than have to track one down I found to be very helpful, as is topping your health and ammo up between tasks. Being able to drop my wanted level while hunting the pigeons was a godsend.
lol I just got an email saying that another one of my ZiTs has turned up on socialclub.com...
That makes 4 out of about 20. I thought maybe this was a good sign, that the whole site was catching up. But no, nothing of the sort/. One ZiT turned up thats all.... I still cant access the story section even though Ive finsished it.
i don't think i have ever played such an overrated game in my life. the last mission (
both variants
) is complete bullshit. when i chose the
revenge path on the very last mission i ran behind the casino and blew up that motherfuckers boat. went on to finish the mission, and surprise, the boat respawned! so i run over to shoot a rocket at his ass before he takes off in it and...the rocket flies wild! fucking bullshit!! same shit trying to kill dimitri as he enters the helicopter, shoot rocket- flies wild! plus several times once i got kicked off the chopper i fall off into the water and DIE.
being unable to deviate and complete a mission a different way is really sad. especially considering how many gtas there have been.
plus there are only a handful of story missions worth mentioning. most are car chase chase chase. boring. where the fuck was the creativity when designing the story missions? O_0
I'm pretty sure if you wait for a ped to use one then kill them they'll drop more money. I think I read that earlier in this thread, haven't tried it myself so I can't confirm it.
Tried out Cops n Crooks today and in 2 out of 3 games I got stuck on the "Starting Game" loading screen. Only escape I found was back to the dashboard and rebooting the game. Great stuff. -.-
I think I understand now the hate for the multiplayer part of the game.
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.

Yeah, that was a disappointment for me. I was expecting there to be at least one awesome turret/shooting level like the Helicopter drug house shoot out in Vice City, or the bike chase in San Andreas.
I too am interested in this answer. I put my name up on the other thread under online matchups but I generally don't see anyone I've added on. Is there a regular night/time when you guys play?
Finally finished the "I need your clothes, boots, and motorcycle" mission. Easily one of the worst in the game. Completely frustrating and not fun at all. Now that it's out of the way I can get back to enjoying the game. :lol

Eh, I think you may be going a little overboard. I do agree that there was too many car chase missions and hopefully Rockstar will branch out quite a bit more with the next installment. I still like GTA3 and SA more, but IV is still fuck awesome, although in some ways disapointing. I still can't believe that you didn't get anything for collecting hidden packages 'till you get them all. Seems like such an oversight to me based on all the other games. I'm still quite looking forward to see what they do with the DL content.
