Game Forum / Action Games / Grand Theft Auto / October 2007Save / throw weapons
Hi... I am playing GTA-SA for the 1st time ... Is there a place where i can save or throw my weapons like airport and golfclub scanners in VC ? i'm still in early stages (ie. still in LS ) but i like to ride towards SF on bike with all cops chasing me .and every time i do this i lost all the weapons i've Thanx JOy (i posted the few mins back, but didn't appear , hence posting again ) > Hi... > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > Thanx > JOy Early answer- No. Now I could be wrong, but I don't think SA lets you drop your weapons off anywhere. However, SA has a 'dating' feature and if you get the right girlfriends, you can be killed or busted by cops and still retain all your weapons... Here are two great tools: http://hem.bredband.net/708145/ And: http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/ps2/game/914983.html Also, there are missions where you can't get any wanted level so you can explore to your heart's delight.... > Hi... > > I am playing GTA-SA for the 1st time ... Yay, someone newer than me! :) > Is there a place where i can save or throw my weapons like airport and > golfclub scanners in VC ? Sadly, no. Your only option is to save first, go fugitive to your heart's content and then re-load. As BB said, there is a girlfriend that rewards 100% by letting you keep your weapons after a bust, but you won't meet her until much later; long after you've unlocked SF. > i'm still in early stages (ie. still in LS ) I don't think I'll be the only one to admit being a bit jealous. Sure, we can start a new game, but there's only one first time. You have a truly great game in front of you. One tip you should have early on - do *not* kill people, be they instructors or otherwise, in gyms. Doing so can cause a nasty glitch locking you out of gym equipment for the rest of the game*. There are supposed fixes but I couldn't get any to work. In fact it's best not to kill civilians in bars or fast food joints either, just to be safe. * You can still build muscle by doing normal exercise but it takes a fecking long time. > > Hi... > [quoted text clipped - 26 lines] > * You can still build muscle by doing normal exercise but it takes a > fecking long time. thanx for Tips....

Handy - but still no remedy for the missions where the weapon you've been collecting ammo for is suddenly replaced. >"SimonH" wrote in message ... > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] >Handy - but still no remedy for the missions where the weapon you've been >collecting ammo for is suddenly replaced. They should have given CJ a weapons locker at selected properties. Weapons and ammo could then be placed into or removed from the locker. > They should have given CJ a weapons locker at selected properties. > Weapons and ammo could then be placed into or removed from the locker. Something akin to the metal detectors at Leaf Links or Escobar airport in GTA: Vice City would be good. After completing around 55% of the game by getting to the western island, I maxed out the ammo for the Colt Python, combat shotgun and Uzi (Made the ammo counter disappear) by doing rampages. One of the first missions ("Bar Brawl") replaced my trusty magnum with a $*?£ing 9mm! Remedy - Go to Leaf Links and go through the metal detector, then go back after the mission. You can do this quite a lot through the game, but obviously it won't matter too much further in to the game when you can simply buy them from Ammu-Nation.

[quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > Cheers, > Rob That's one of the very few things that I don't like about the GTA games. It just seems like whenever the game picks a weapon for you, it's going to be inferior to whatever weapon you already had. In the case of the hidden package awards, I tend to only like about 1/2 of what they chose (although GTAIII actually rewarded you with worthwhile weapons from the hidden packages). Whether or not IV fixes these things remains to be seen, but if not, I still know I'll have too much fun to care that much :) > That's one of the very few things that I don't like about the GTA games. > It just seems like whenever the game picks a weapon for you, it's going > to be inferior to whatever weapon you already had.

So did Vice City - the sniper rifle, Python, and minigun are nothing to sneeze at. :) Signature"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we.

This isn't Resident Evil after all. GTA:VC at least started logically classing the weapons in to categories (melee, heavy, sub-machine gun, etc.) but it still annoys me, like you said, that the game automatically picks and replaces your hard-earned weapon with some piece of crap. Its been stated in numerous previews that Niko will be able to use the boot of a car to transport stuff. I very much doubt it will just be for missions, guess we'll just have to wait and and see.

It's got to the point now where I don't ever assume a vehicle is going to be where I left it if it goes off screen, even if I leave the door open. And I have zero confidence in San Andreas garages. I put a Sanchez and an FCR900 in my garage in Fort Carson the other day. Went into the house to save, came back out and opened the garage door - no FCR. It is a weird garage - if you walk inside and stand under the sloped roof to the left, the camera sweeps back into chase view rather than the fixed garage angle. No excuse, though - garages should just work if not over full. > And I have zero confidence in San Andreas garages. <snippy snip> It's been widely reported that GTA has some problems with storing vehicles, but personally I've never had a problem. Sure, I've lost some hard-earned proofed cars but that's basically down to me over-crowding the garage in the first place. Even in SA, the most trouble I've had is the erasure of my modded paint jobs for some of Wheel Arch Angel customised sports cars.
