Haven't got to that stage as yet.

Question about the Timmy watsit...do you have to kill all 10 in one stint or something because I found and killed 3 of them in Miami, and then saved the game. Came back to it later, killed the Timmy at the Go-Kart place in Miami and it came up as '1/10...' on the screen.

Hmmm, dunno about that one. I thought that if you saved your profile (you did do that, right?) during the take-a-ride mode then they should stay dead. I'll have to try it out. How far are you into the game?

Was damn sure I did, although I guess it couldnt have saved.

I'm on the last mission in Nice, "Hunted". Would have completed it as well if I hadn't have rocketed up the hill through the air right into the roadblock

If it's anything like previous roadblocks, they can be easily dealt with.

Ah well, I'll have another crack at that and the Timmy thing tomorrow.

Is that the one with the forklift? Did you take the boat or leg it out of the warehouse door and steal the henchmen's car?

I took the boat. Either way there's a bit of a reception commitee waiting for you when you get back to base in the old town on top of the hill.

Yeah, thats the one

I took the car, like I said I got to the last roadblock without any trouble so I should be able to do it next time.

The reason I took the car was I couldn't get a good enough angle/range to shoot the guys on the boat on the right hand side of where you face the opening. The only way was to get onto the boat which ended up getting mashed by their gunfire. Even though there was another boat there, I thought sod it...and went for the door.

best way to finish that mission is to get out of your car at the old town bit, and walk up the hill. This way you can see the roadblocks from further away & easily pick them off without them doing anything.

I ran out of the door and dodged everyone at the start, no-one really got much of a shot at me so i had decent health. I picked off the guys at the roadblock and took one of the cars. I found it best to turn left & go along the motorway, up to the old town part, that way i didnt have any cars chase me at all.

im stuck on catilina chase- i got to the motor bike chase bit but its a killer

 

[asher b]

anyone know if you can get to a forklift any other way? like on a free roam? or just in that mission?

 

[Ryder Style]

you prob can if you just go back to that place when you aint doing missions, i think theres a good chance of it being there

I havent found it myself yet, but i lifted this text from a couple of FAQs on the game:

[Go as far east as you can on land down to where there's a a bit of land that
sticks out from the rest. Go to where there are two loops of road here shown on
the map. Now here, there's a house on its own and some more road not shown on
the map. Go around to the right of the house and follow this road until you
come to a left turn. It's a steep driveway. Go up here the car is in the back
garden in a garage.

Go to the far right side of the map where there is a looped road. There is a road leading off it which is not on the map. It takes you onto the green area to the right of the loop. You can't tell but this is a looped road as well. Turn onto it and head anti-clockwise. After a few bends, you'll see a steep driveway on your left. Go up here and when the drive ends, if you go a little further, you'll see some garages in the garden on the left-hand side. The forklift is in here.

I hope this helps.

This is difficult, but i managed to do it after about 40 attempts. If you can catch up with her on her motorbike, just slam into her. If she comes off the bike then you have caught her and the mission is complete.

thanks mate, as it happens, paul B found a great map which shows where all 3 secret cars (including the forklift) are in miami.

i'll upload it when frutsel works again

 

[jamez]

No problem. Are these maps the same as the ones you've got?

Miami
Nice
Istanbul

 

[asher b]

yeah!

pretty good they are too.

i drove all the way to the forklift and then i was really happy when i found it. i drove it down the steps and handbrake turned it at the bottom and flipped it.

lasted a whole 10 seconds

Can you flip over passing cars with it?

 

[asher b]

i didnt get the chance to try, i killed it as soon as i got to the road. im gonna go find it again later.

 

[jamez]

I completed the game today. Ive got all the timmies and secret cars. Thats it, all over. I'm not going to ruin things but the end scene suggests it may be all over for tanner too. Or is it?

 

[ashmufc]

I just bough Games Master and got the game today. Does anybody want the walkthrough, I could scan it in, its quite detailed.

 

[Lorenzinho]

Yeah, that'd be good if you could because the FAQ that i posted the link for was kind of under elaborate to put it lightly...

 

[jag87]

@Ashmufc! - Go on mate! Scan it in!

 

[asher b]

i need help so definately scan it!
