Quoted: I bet you guys also didn`t know some of this: -Everytime you complete a vigilante mission, your vehicle automatically repairs. I`v gotten all the way up to level 407 on the vigilante levels with the Apache. While I was flying around in that chopper, a tank ran into me while I was flying low and I didn`t explode. When I landed, I wanted to test this even more and fired rockets at the chopper. It took three rockets to blow it up. -You can go "under Vice City." You need a Sparrow (preferably the Sea Sparrow) to get there. Once you have one, go to the back of the mansion and fly over the pool that is under the mansion. The farmost part of theceiling over the pool is hollow, so you can fly over it and end up under VC. While under VC, you can check out all the neat stuff under water and there is a neat picture inside the Ammunation in the Downtown area. -If you are being chased by the law, all you need to do is shoot at their vehicles and they will stop chasing you (unless the vehicle is a tank). -You can get rid of tanks with either flamethrowers or molotovs because tanks aren`t fireproof. -If you put a boat or a chopper through the repair shop, it will come out with wheels. -At night, one of the hotels near the Malibu Club will have certain lights on. The lights will form... well, go ahead and look for yourself. You`ll know it when you see it. -If you shoot the moon with the sniper rifle, it gets larger. Where is the Sea Sparrow hiding? I've seen the regular Sparrow somewhere in Little Haiti/Havana. |

You don't need the 100 packages. Just finish "Keep your Friends Close". Afterwards get in the cop clothes at the Washington Beach station. Stroll through the base, get in the chopper and unleash hell.
Also, for downing choppers, the best way is the M60. You can aim it and you have lots of ammo. RPG gives you 4 shots. With 200 rounds in the 60 you can down at least 8 birds. Also works great on boats. On the help Cortez escape and kill the French dudes mission, I wiped out their armada in less than 10 seconds. The Hunter was no match for the 60. Crouch, aim, unload. |

With my kind of millions, I go to the junkyard and buy 20 or 30 RPG's. One RPG puts a chopper down in one shot/one kill. |

Yeah, but you can hurt yourself if you are not careful/if you are retarded.
Plus, you can use the M60 on other opportune targets with out wasting lots of ammo. Cheaper to replace if you get killed or arrested as well. I'll keep my 60 thanks. |

Quoted: In my garage at the Vercetti estate I have an FBI Rancher and SWAT Enforcer. The hardest vehicle to steal in the game is the Barracks OL. The only way to get one to appear is to get 6 stars. But if you are foolish enough to steal one while the tanks are rolling they will of course ram you and blow you up. I have done it but it's not easy, good luck. Also, to comment on an earlier post of mine -- the absolute hardest mother ****ing thing in this game is the paramedic mission. It took me forever and was incredibly frustrating. |

Selling Whoope Ice Cream was a piece of cake. But was Vercetti selling that the cops wanted to bust him for? Dope? |

Also forgot to mention:
-You can destroy a chopper with one shot from a sniper rifle. You have to shoot the pilot [b]through the windshield[/b] so you won`t be able to do it when you`re right under it. It takes some guesswork since you can`t see the pilot but you will get used to it. |

Buy the Auto Dealership. Steal all the cars on the list in the garage. There are 4 lists. After the 2nd list you get the 442 in the dealership. Better than that -- in The Driver mission, where you race Hillary, as soon as the race starts, he back up to the road on the side of the Malibu club and wait. Soon enough, Hillary comes by you and wins the race. He disappears from his 442 as soon as he does and the car will roll to a stop in front of the club. Push the car (using another car) into your nearest garage and save the game. Now, not only will you have a saber turbo, but you have a saber turbo that is both bulletproof and flameproof (although the tires can still be flattened). |

Could it be the Avery missions I have to finish? I have to fly that RC copter into that structure to demolish it. Edit: It is Avery I just looked it up. Thanks for getting the ball rolling. |

I dunno what that is but I think the best time to whack Hillary is during the stretch right after you pass the VC police station. That is usually when you catch up to him. If you fail to knock him out on this stretch before the first 90º left turn you will probably never catch up to him again. I tried some tricks to try and beat him but he's too sneaky. I did have the lead on him before but I took a wrong turn right near the end. So I know I could've beaten him at least twice. In the end I beat him after about a dozen tries. |

Quoted: If you get the sea sparrow behind the Diaz mansion, take off very gently and turn 180 degrees. Then fly under the Diaz house into the swimming pool area. If you get far enough in, being careful not to hit the columns, climb a little bit and you will pop into the house somewhat (you will scrape the ceiling doing this). It's a bug -- if you push forward, you will enter a weird world where you actually fly UNDER vice city. You can see the sunken boats etc. from close up as well as you can pop up anywhere in the city. I can get under the house but how do I go elsewhere in VC? Too many crashes for me in there. Can you kill the bad guys down there? |

I'm gonna make her drink some of that witches brew. Once you get a high enough score at the shooting range you will win the "fast reload" award. After you get it, the bolt action is better. You can use it for easy head shots throught car windshields and you can watch the headless drivers stagger out of their cars bleeding all over the place. Almost forgot, it also makes seagull sniping easy [:)] |
