Re: GTA 4- Help, tips and strategy.

If you kill Derrick, it allows you to call Francis to lose your wanted level. I'm not sure what it is if you kill Francis.

Another way is to steal a boat and keep circling the islands until you hit the 5mins, then if you head out to sea, they'll eventually stop chasing you. Now, if you then head to the airport in the boat, stop on the beach, run up to the runway, wait for the 4 starts to appear, head back down to the boat and out to sea again and you'll get that achievement too

Re: GTA 4- Help, tips and strategy.

Finished - Tips are in car chases try get something big so you can afford to take a couple knocks. Always buy body armour. I was buying it after almost every mission lol. Have plenty of big guns. Have a couple spare rockets and grenades to if you have the spare cash. Oh and when in a gun fight use the cover system it really does help.

another tip for car chases, they are relatively scripted and when the script runs out, they are a lot easier to kill so don't waste bullets going for early kills just take your time

Agreed.

Another little tip is to slow down into corners. Dont handbrake turn every corner at full speed your just going to increase your chance of losing control and the enemy getting away. Brake early accelerate out of corner. Dont worry about them getting away just because they have turned a corner because most the the chases have straight parts that make it easy to catch up to them.

Re: GTA 4- Help, tips and strategy.

I don't have this game yet, but if you have no weapons and get in a cop car, do you get a shotgun free?

Excellent advice icestar, especially when the race starts at that first turn all the AI cars go berserk trying to get in front, invariably taking each other out, if your not in front by the first bend hang back a little and watch the carnage before overtaking the crashed masses.

I wish I had known that earlier. I was caught out a while ago with no gun and not enough money.

Re: GTA 4- Help, tips and strategy.

Just noticed on the Game site you can win one million points [£2500] by voting for your all time favourite game, I don't usually bother with these things, but in this case its simple easy and free, good luck.

PS If you do win remember the old frog
