Game Forum / Action Games / Grand Theft Auto / May 2008Liberty City Stories: Laser-sighted sniper
Hi, In LCS there's a laser-sighted sniper rifle on the balcony above the entrance to the Ristorante Ecoli southeast of Carson General Hospital. How the hell do I get onto the balcony to get it?

There aren't any legitimate helicopters in that game.

[quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > (Remember Dr Folkman) Odds are there's a ramp nearby where you can jump a car or bike up there. I don't recall the exact location that you're talking about but I remember a sniper rifle pickup (and hidden package) that could only be reached by jumping, either with a vehicle or just on foot, from the elevated train tracks close by. Had a hell of a time figuring out that one. In that game some of the pickups and packages were real bastards to reach, compared to GTA3... -- Bob > In LCS there's a laser-sighted sniper rifle on the balcony above the > entrance to the Ristorante Ecoli southeast of Carson General Hospital. > How the hell do I get onto the balcony to get it? As I recall, you'll cause an explosion affecting that whole area at some point and the restaurant gets damaged and then you can get the rifle. I remember spending quite some time looking for a way to get that rifle too, but didn't find any. Funny name for a restaurant, by the way :( > Funny name for a restaurant, by the way :( Could be worse, at least it's close to the hospital. OK, time to cause some explosions ...

OK, time to cause > some explosions ... > > (Remember Dr Folkman) OK, I tried firing rockets at everything in sight, climbing up via various large vehicles, driving a PCJ600 up the steps in front of the restaurant at high speed to jump at it and looking for ways onto the roofs of the adjacent buildings. None of these have come close to working, I'm beginning to assume that the rifle was put there before the last minute decision was made to remove helicopters from the game, so in fact it's no longer accessible. Anyone ever actually got onto that balcony? > On 26 May, 12:02, "dpydot...@hotmail.com" <dpydot...@hotmail.com> > wrote: [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > so in fact it's no longer accessible. Anyone ever actually got onto > that balcony? dammit, I was really wrong here. I am so sorry but I thought we were talking about Vice city stories. It was when you said helicopters had been removed and I'm thinking, what? I've flown in them! then I realised my error.

Anyone ever actually got onto > that balcony? No, that won't do any good. There is a mission that will result in a dramatic change in the shape of the buildings. You can't just use rockets and blow stuff up to get the same effect. > No, that won't do any good. There is a mission that will result in a > dramatic change in the shape of the buildings.

OK, thanks to all, you're right, some further research reveals that there's a mission called Bringing the House Down, which apparently does what you and others describe, I'm not quite there yet, so the laser-sighted rifle will have to stay where it is for now. By the way, I've only dug this out of a drawer to play it in an attempt to avoid the cost of a PS3 so I can play GTA4 - somehow I don't think it's going to work.

I'm doing the same thing:) I've played the story through once before then went back to San Andreas and Vice City Stories but I needed to get back to Liberty. I really like LCS. Not many people do, but I just like the overall atmosphere / vibe of the game. There's the odd nasty/cheap mission but, overall, I like it.

Rockstar Leeds can go suck one.

Thanks Paul and others for all genuine replies. Unfortunately a.shole Farrel is demented and has a history of stalking honest and intelligent posters and spreading spam and nonsense across the internet under a variety of names.

She is a troll at alt.baldspot. Funny, that. It looks like the only "troll at alt.baldspot" is you, since you seem to be obsessed with adding it as a crosspost. |
