Missions
Say Cheese
| QUOTE |
Victor is needing some cash and luckily for him a company is looking for a stuntman to appear in their latest chocolate commercial. Vice City's calm waters are perfect for the company's first vehicle of choice - a Jet Ski! Thankfully Rockstar have improved the water effects for Vice City Stories and the craft moves extremely realistically, spraying water all around. Vic is required to cruise around a set course with a camera crew following in a helicopter, navigating twists and even jumps. One of the jumps launches the Jet Ski off the water and onto the street where you must then take control of a motorbike (which also features improved handling) and race through the city streets. |
Taking The Fall
| QUOTE |
Lance Vance isn't too happy with one of Vice City's famous biker gangs and he's finally decided to do something about it. Lance has decided he's going to need to attack from the air and it is Vic that's going to have to do the flying. You'll have to hover over enemies while Lance takes them out on the ground and then fly the helicopter to a construction site to finish the job. Unfortunately though, Lance somehow falls from the helicopter and is quickly surrounded by the gang. You'll have to land the helicopter and approach the gang with your shotgun. The ragdoll physics are really clear when you start firing at them. |
Jump Ship
| QUOTE |
Lance and Vic have found out that one of their criminal "associates", Brian Forbes, is actually an undercover cop. Lance has managed to kidnap him and has forced out information on a drug deal that's taking place near the docks. Your job is to keep watch while Lance tries to grab himself a few freebies using Vice City Stories' new binoculars.
Unfortunately though, Lance is hopeless - again, and messes up the deal and gets himself kidnapped and thrown onto a speedboat. You'll have to quickly jump into a car and chase the boat down the side of the island. After a while, it becomes clear that the speedboat is headed to dock with a much larger tanker and Lance is taken inside. Here's the fun part - you'll have to launch the car from a conveniently placed ramp and jump out in mid air in order to land on the deck of the tanker.
Once inside, the scale of the ship becomes clear. This thing is huge and you'll have to find Lance and kill the goons that have tied him up. Corridors of the ship are littered with enemies and when you get to the cargo hold where Lance is you'll have to take out a few more. Once he's free you'll have to climb to the very top of the boat and grab even more narcotics and then flee the ship using yet another conveniently placed ramp. |
Turn On, Tune In, Bug Out
| QUOTE |
This mission is much later in the game. It starts off at the Vance Mansion (whether this is acquired during the game is unknown) and from there you have to buy yourself a Rocket Launcher and take out police radio antenna at Police Stations across Vice City. As you might expect, this attracts a lot of attention from the local police who quickly scramble top cops to take you out. You'll need your wits and your skills with you on this mission with all sorts of transport required to get between targets - including helicopters and bikes! |

Can you swim in this game? And is it going to be Available for the PS2?
DGM - August 2, 2006 12:16 AM (GMT)
Yep, I'm happy to say you can swim. A PS2 release hasn't been talked about, probably all depends on how successful it is on the PSP.

Its gonna be at least $50 though.
Oh well, Rag-doll and Jet-Ski's make San Andreas like like crap, speaking of which.
This makes Lance Vance seem so much less cool lol.

Australian Prick - August 2, 2006 10:09 AM (GMT)
All you guys with a Psp buy it for the sake of those who can't be pissed to get one and wait for it to come out on Ps2!
DGM - August 2, 2006 11:09 AM (GMT)
lol
Yeah, sounds like this is going to be one of the better GTAs. Features that aren't included, as far as we know, include; Fence/roof climbing, Vehicle Modification and Character Customization.
Rocky rocks! - August 2, 2006 01:41 PM (GMT)
I see, too bad we don't have the climbing and character customization(I don't really care about vehicle :P)
Wait, so that's mean we can't change clothes for the main character too?
DGM - August 2, 2006 04:55 PM (GMT)
Apparently not, Rocky :hmm:
Kingturtle2007 - August 2, 2006 05:37 PM (GMT)
Wow, ragdoll is going to be fun to watch and so is the jet ski... Can't wait for this to come out. :ninja: :ninja:

You forgot Infrastructure MP mode.
DGM - August 2, 2006 10:07 PM (GMT)
Yeah, I probably missed a few others, too.
Australian Prick - August 3, 2006 09:24 AM (GMT)
It'll be difficult to get used to not being able to climb on things.

Rocky rocks! - August 4, 2006 08:35 AM (GMT)
^
Nah, it is not included in VCS.
But man! Ragdoll!! :lol:
Kingturtle2007 - August 4, 2006 08:51 AM (GMT)
didn't it say clmbing? but then again I always wanted ragdoll, If I get my hands on a rocket launcher, then that would be pimpin.
Rocky rocks! - August 4, 2006 10:56 AM (GMT)
if there's a slowmo cheat, I'm goin' to play it like Max Payne 2, keep shooting ppl up on the air. :lol:
Australian Prick - August 4, 2006 11:05 AM (GMT)
If the heads don't fall off when you pop them boy will I be pissed.
Rocky rocks! - August 4, 2006 11:15 AM (GMT)

Sweet - August 4, 2006 12:54 PM (GMT)
Wow If the ragdoll effects are sucessful in this they might be in GTA 4.

Well there's also something like that in SA, when you do the adrenaline cheat, it does the same effect.

Ya, but I can't keep shooting them to keep them on the air cuz they aren't Ragdoll~ :lol:
Kingturtle2007 - August 4, 2006 07:12 PM (GMT)
Lol ok then, now I understand. :ninja: :ninja:
Jedihunter - August 6, 2006 01:29 AM (GMT)
I wonder if you can have two handguns like in SA.
Imagine putting in the Slow mo cheat with two handguns and just blasting people.
Kingturtle2007 - August 6, 2006 03:04 AM (GMT)
You can do that in SA :ninja: :ninja:

Rocky rocks! - August 6, 2006 11:56 AM (GMT)
Opps...
I really forgot about that...
Anyway, I hope that there won't be many time limit missions in VCS, cuz I'm pretty suck on those type of mission...
Australian Prick - August 6, 2006 12:15 PM (GMT)
I hate the racing missions like Wu zi mu and Farewell my Love in SA.

Ragdoll Physics*, to put it simply, are a more life-like type of animation.
