Most difficult mission? - Grand Theft Auto IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony (2009) Discussion

[–] KidSixXx 14 years ago

That mission is easy if you shoot out the bolts in a logical manner. Aim for the far bolt in the rear first, then the closest in the front, back closest and then front farthest.

The APC will still sway but not so much that you'll have to adjust your last shot dramatically.

The hardes part is skydiving to the bridge where the APC fell without splashing into the river, but if you use the BASE Jump Challenges as practice you should be able to get to the APC with little trouble.

I am a crappy pilot, so my toughest missions were the one where you have to steal the Buzzard / Kill the fleeing arms dealers (I was so spoiled by the laser guided rockets in Saint's Row 2 ), the escape from the Libertonian, and the mission where you have to follow Packie in the Ancelotti helicopter.

I agree. I had to redo that mission at least 10 times because I lost Packie. Not easy to maneuver a helicopter with a keyboard :P I hate chase mission with heli's in GTA!

Another mission I had to do a few times is the blogger one. When I jumped out of the plane, I kept missing him and couldn't grab him before he hit the ground.

I'm with the OP. That mission pissed me off so much, lol.

Do you know how hard it is to find a good redbone?

Party's Over, the relentless invasion saw me getting shot to bits soooo many times.

I hate pretty much any helicopter missions. Especially the yacht one. That one was so annoying! It took me so long to beat it!

I can't believe so many people hate helicopter missions. They're the easiest ones, and often the most fun.

"In The Crosshairs", cos of all the people on the roof and on the ground by the cars. Getting the snipers was the easy part. Also, I failed the first time for being blown up unexpectedly. I thought there was a mine or something, until I realised on my retry. I finished the mission after my second attempt with like 5% of health left; I didn't bother shooting the last bunch of people by the last two cars.

I'm not very far into the game, but "Sexy Time" was a major pain in the but. Flying helicopters is a pain in the a$$ by itself. Aiming, shooting, AND flying at the same time made it hard to hit those damn yachts.

Now that I've finished the game:

"Ladies's Night" where you fly a chopper all over and follow Packie drove me crazy. I lost him numerous time towards the end. (Damn, I hate helicoptor missions).

And "Party's Over". It took numerous attempts and alot of work to thin all those guys out.

The yacht mission, especially the second half when you chase those 3 boats. I believe it's a bit easier with a console controller than a keyboard. The final mission I aced first time until distracted on the descent accidentally crashed into a building - DOH!
