Game Forum / Action Games / Grand Theft Auto / August 2008Exploding hot dog carts !
How hell did i miss this one ? I was taking a nice drive down the sidewalks around Central Park today, and mauled one good. I was instantly rewarded with death when it got crushed between the car and a wall. Cool ! Had to knock another one around just to verify what happened. After that, i went back to cruising, so i'll see what fun there's to be had with those carts another day. > How hell did i miss this one ? > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > After that, i went back to cruising, so i'll see what fun there's to > be had with those carts another day. Maybe the cookers on the carts are powered by propane tanks. I know hitting those tanks are a good for a quick trip to the hospital. I haven't had a cart explode but I haven't gone out of my way to hit them, either. I'll give it a try next time I play... -- Bob > > How hell did i miss this one ? > > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > > -- Bob it would be neat if you could smack one hard enough so it shot some distance then exploded.

So many missed opportunities, like being able to lug around propane tanks and leave them where you want, like out in traffic... Come to think of it, I've done this in San Andreas. It's not easy, but doable. I seem to recall getting in trouble with the cops when traffic sets them off, too... -- Desgtructive Bob > >> > How hell did i miss this one ? > >> > [quoted text clipped - 24 lines] > > -- Desgtructive Bob aye, last time I tried to do something like that they bloody blew me to bits SignaturePaul (We won't die of devotion) ------------------------------------------------------- Stop and Look http://www.geocities.com/dreamst8me/ > Maybe the cookers on the carts are powered by propane tanks.

I'll fire the game later and get a better look at the cart. Maybe it'll have the equivalent of a fuel filler door trigger point like the cars in SA did. Then you can push it out into traffic and shoot the damn thing. >> Maybe the cookers on the carts are powered by propane tanks.

God forbid the cockroaches should leave--then the nutritional value of those things they're selling would be zero! > I'll fire the game later and get a better look at the cart.

The fun of being able to put propane tanks in traffic is to watch the cars blow themselves up without the game realizing I was responsible and sending the cops after me (I'm lazy and hate to run.) Unfortunately it doesn't work like that in SA. The game figures out who put the tank there and I get a wanted level almost every time. It would also be fun to drop tanks off of the cranes into traffic. Hand grenades just aren't as satisfying, somehow. Not to mention if you drop them from too high, they detonate before even hitting the ground. -- Bob >>> Maybe the cookers on the carts are powered by propane tanks.

The exploding hot dog cart i found was in front of the helicopter tour pier, not the park. I was at the park trying to crush the carts with no success just now, and realized my mistake. I blame it on beer and late nights. The hotdog cart at the helitour pier is different than the ones around Central park. It's smaller, and where the guy stands is an open panel where you can see a red propane tank. Think it's called Chihuahua Dog, or something like that. Unfortunately Bob, it doesn't look like you can shoot it like the bigger ones in SA. I dumped plenty of rounds into it with no results. Ramming a car into it once or twice against that wall certainly works though. Dunno if you can cheat/spawn that type of hotdog cart, but pushing it off a building would be fun. ;) |
