Chases, shootouts, explosions, deals with gangsters, always ending in shooting and a mountain of corpses, are common occurrences for any part of the series about great car thefts. However, against the backdrop of the life of the huge Liberty City, the adventures of the emigrant Niko in the original GTA IV faded, because the passage of story missions was diluted only by dates with friends, gatherings on the gaming Internet and quests from random citizens.

In Episodes, the situation suddenly improved. Tired of plot showdowns inside the Lost biker club? No problem. You can entertain yourself by taking part in a gang fight or winning a race without rules. Tired of Tony Prince's constant whining and reproaches in the second episode? So feel like a real extreme sports enthusiast - jump with a parachute, win a triathlon or wave your fists in a fight club, and finally help old friends steal heroin from competitors. Life in the city of the “American Dream” has sparkled with new colors, and this gives us a good reason to take a closer look at all the entertainment available to our new heroes - Johnny and Louis.

• Showdown "Lost"
• Racing, theft and big politics
• Nuances of club life
• Eventing in the style of "Liberty"

The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony are two episodes of the same story, two different points of view on the same events, dramas of two completely different people. Despite the general plot, they are in many ways opposite: the despondency and devastation of the biker brotherhood against the shining neon lights of nightclubs, the showdown of the criminal underclass against the war of influential criminal gangs and, in the end, a gloomy bald biker against a prominent Latino in an expensive suit.

This is interesting: if you are playing one of the episodes and load a save from another story from the current session, on the loading screen you will be able to see several new pictures depicting its characters.

Even the ways of spending leisure time between the two heroes are different - Johnny is not averse to competing in arm wrestling or trying his luck in the card game “over-under,” while Louis prefers golf, and only table hockey suits both of them and is available in two stories at once.

By inheritance from GTA IV, “Episodes” also inherited random passers-by; however, now you don’t need to look for them throughout the city - they are always visible on the map.

On a note: in the first story, one of the random passers-by may be Brian if he survived the Bad Standing mission. True, completing his task does not affect 100% completion of the game, but you still won’t get anything good from a renegade.

Showdown "Lost"

Johnny Klebitz (the main character of the episode The Lost and Damned) is a tough guy, disdains cars, rides his stylish bike and spends most of the game time just trying to survive and stand up for the honor of his native club. Unlike the capabilities of his South American “colleague” from the episode about Blue Tony, Johnny’s capabilities in the game world are very limited, but the experienced biker will always be able to not only get into trouble, but also get out of it.

Homemade bombs? Why these toys when I have an RPG?

Barricades are not a barrier to two-wheeled vehicles.

The first episode of GTA adds three mini-games as ways to spend your leisure time. Johnny can compete in arm wrestling, try your luck at card game "more and less" or play with friends table hockey. The rules of the mini-games are quite simple, and the key to success everywhere, except cards, will be dexterity and speed of mouse movements.

You can only play cards in the Lost Club (please note that you will not be able to return to this game after completing the last mission due to plot endings). Arm wrestling is also available on the second floor of the club, and after the Action / Reaction task, the opportunity to measure strength will appear in the North Holland and Northwood areas, and the second place will not appear on the map right away, you must find it yourself. Air hockey is available at bowling alleys in the Slaughterhouse and Firefly Island areas.

Motorcycle racing

Not a single part of the series was complete without high-speed races in various vehicles. The Lost and Damned is no exception. After completing the Liberty City Choppers task, another fun will appear - racing without rules on motorcycles.

Not only is there no smell of fair play here, but also each participant is armed with a bat and is not afraid to use it. Just one slight blow, and in the best case your motorcycle simply turns to the side, and in the worst case you fly off the track at speed and you can safely start the race all over again. Johnny is also armed, but in order to hit a competitor hard, you need to get close to him, and the chances that he won’t hit you before are about 50 to 50.

The key to victory in such dirty races is a quick jerk at the start and careful passing of the distance so as not to let anyone go ahead. Either beware of your opponents and their batons like fire and, conversely, linger a little at the start, and then methodically go around them, maintaining a distance when overtaking.

The owner of a stolen motorcycle will no longer be able to report the theft.

The prize for winning all twelve races will be a new Hakuchou motorcycle - you can always find it near the club (and at the end of the story - near Brian's house) or order it from Clay. After completing all races, you will be able to go through them again.

Motorcycle theft

After the same Liberty City Choppers, Jim will call you and tell you that Angus has a job for you. Now you can call at any time and start a mission to steal motorcycles. This is an analogue of Brucie’s tasks from the original GTA IV, only together with the cars there are two-wheeled vehicles.

In total you need to steal ten motorcycles. This can be done in different ways, but there are two simplest and most effective: shoot the owner of the bike on the move with a machine gun, or get into the car and simply knock down the unfortunate motorcyclist. Just keep in mind that the more damaged the motorcycle is, the smaller the reward for it will be. Bring the bike into the garage in perfect condition and you are guaranteed to receive $1,400.

The reward for completing all thefts is a brand new Bati 800 motorcycle.

Working for a Congressman

The end of The Shit's Cursed mission will be marked by a small event - Congressman Thomas Stubbs will contact the hero and offer to work for him for the benefit of all of Liberty City. Of course, behind the “good” lie murders, hijackings, espionage and collection of incriminating evidence...

In total, Mr. Politician will give five instructions. For completing each of them, Johnny will become richer by $1000. The amount is small, but these tasks can be completed just for variety. Successful completion does not bring additional bonuses.

Live at 100% in The Lost and Damned

Story missions - 65%;

50 seagulls killed - 3.33%;

Success in 25 showdowns - 3.33%;

12 motorcycle races won - 3.34%;

Completed tasks of random passers-by (without Brian’s task) - 5%;

10 motorcycles stolen for Angus - 5%;

Completed 5 Stubbs orders - 5%;

Spent time with friends (table hockey, darts, billiards, drinking at a bar, lunch, strip club, comedy show) - 5%;

Victory over an opponent in 4 mini-games (table hockey, darts, billiards, arm wrestling) - 5%.

Showdown

That's what this episode is worth playing for. Start your unsurpassed “Hesker”, call your best friends and rush with the wind to show the “Angels of Death” (or “dead guys”, as your gang members like to call their competitors) who is the real boss in this city.

This exciting activity becomes available after the Coming Down mission, when the unloved Billy Gray finally goes to jail and Johnny heads the Lost biker club. In terms of meaning, the showdown is reminiscent of the gang war from GTA: San Andreas, only here there are no areas or diversity of enemy clans; in general, you just need to find idle “Angels” in the city and send them to the next world.

After the successful completion of every tenth skirmish, new types of weapons will be added to Brian’s house (there are five in total - from a sawn-off shotgun to a grenade launcher), but the total number of these mini-missions is unlimited.

On a note: gang warfare is a good way to save money; for the first battle won we will receive $1000, and for each subsequent battle we will receive $250 more.

The bandits decided to stop and fight back - it would be better if they didn’t do this...

A whistling limousine had better shoot out the wheels first and then the gas tank.

Plus, fighting is good training for the rest of the gang. All their indicators will increase, their total health will increase, and they will also acquire new, more powerful weapons. Jim, Terry and Clay are immortal, and even if they are hit by a stray bullet, they will simply leave the fight, but will return to duty after the battle is over. Ordinary “Lost” can die and do this very often - you shouldn’t pay much attention to them, they are here only for extras. The main work will still go to you.

There are three options for biker showdowns. Simplest - reprisal against enemies who took refuge in some “stationary” place and don’t ride around the city on their bikes. There are many enemies, but they are scattered and always marked with red markers - there is no trick to expect from anywhere. In addition, there is a good chance of finding a first aid kit or body armor in the bandits’ hideout.

The second type of showdown - destruction of a moving column of motorcyclists (or motorists). Such battles are fleeting, but fraught with loss of health, so I advise you to take the first shot and hide. Then get off the bike and shoot at the remaining enemies, who (apparently out of solidarity) also dismount. Shooting right on the city roads may attract the police, but do not panic - after the death of the last enemy, the wanted stars will disappear on their own.

The last option is convoy. This is simply the standard of the entire series - the destruction of a car with escaping bandits and a showdown with their escort. You only need to destroy one car marked with a marker, but if the target car is guarded, it is better to shoot the escort first. In any case, you shouldn’t go to such things without a bulletproof vest. When firing at the main car, aim not at the driver, but at the gas tanks or wheels - soon the car will start smoking, and you will witness a colorful explosion and the successful completion of the mission.

Extreme on the streets of Liberty City

Luis Lopez (the protagonist of The Ballad of Gay Tony) is Tony Prince's personal guardian angel, a participant in a completely different war. Only expensive sports cars, fashionable clothes, elite nightclubs, the most prominent “cover girls”, the most extreme story missions and life in a prestigious area of ​​the city.

Armando - gunsmith from
God and will get you anything.

In the fight club, Louis feels at home - it is impossible to forget his past life.

The second episode of GTA is all about extreme action, high speeds and air battles, not to mention crazy story missions and spectacular shootouts. The most harmless entertainment of the entire “Tale of Blue Tony” - playing golf, but even the player is introduced to it under very interesting circumstances (mission Practice Swing).

Fights without rules

Completing the Momma's Boy mission will open access to underground fights. The goal is to survive six rounds in the arena, in each of which to kill three strong guys who enter the ring in turn.

The first two stages need to fight with unarmed opponents. In rounds three through five, Louis will be confronted alternately by an unarmed enemy, a fighter with a bat, and a punisher with a knife. And finally, the final battle will take place against three fighters armed with knives. Winning six rounds affects 100% completion of the game, but does not give anything else.

It is important: In underground battles, a bulletproof vest will not help you. Melee attacks and melee weapons deal damage directly to health.

The key to victory in fight club is the right tactics. The enemy needs to be kept at a distance, for which kicks are well suited. But you shouldn’t use various combinations and blocks of blows - their effectiveness leaves much to be desired, and they are not easy to perform.

Drug showdowns

After the Corner Kids mission, a new type of additional tasks will open - Drug Wars. Your task is to help your unlucky friends Armando and Enrique steal a shipment of heroin from their competitors, and then safely deliver the stolen goods to the hideout. This is a direct analogue of the biker showdowns from The Lost and Damned.

Louis drives, the passengers shoot. Typical division of labor in action.

For every tenth successful operation, Louis will receive one of the unique types of weapons that are not available for purchase in weapons stores (however, they can always be bought in Armando’s weapons van). After the fiftieth completed mission, a “golden ultrasound” will appear in Lou’s apartment, provided that the Departure Time story mission is completed. To complete the game 100%, you need to complete at least twenty-five of these showdowns.

There are four mission options: theft, escort, robbery and goods.

In tasks like "hijacking" you need to steal a vehicle (car, boat or helicopter) full of drugs and deliver it to the base. The target will be guarded, and if an alarm sounds, the vehicle may try to escape, so it is better to kill the driver with a long-range rifle with the first shot, and then take care of the escorts. However, the target may not be guarded at all, but when you get behind the wheel, you will receive two “wanted stars” and the police “on your tail.”

At "robbery" you need to disrupt a deal between two gangs and take possession of their goods. Usually such an event is held in some secluded establishment. You can just wait until the gangsters kill each other after the deal goes wrong, but it’s better to act on your own. Kill everyone and capture the goods (initially, all enemies are marked with a marker, but after one of them drops the goods, the enemy “gunner” will stop working), then simply leave the area.

On a note: When delivering goods to your shelter, you may be followed by a “tail” in the form of one or two cars with bandits. Ignore them and calmly drive to the base - their shots rarely reach their target.

Sometimes your friends will just tell you to pick it up "product" from a rival gang and take him to a hideout. In such cases, the map only shows the location of the “goods” - but there are many enemies, and their location is unclear. Carefully, using cover, shoot everyone, take the goods and leave the area. Often you can find a helicopter in a showdown area, and in such a situation it would be a sin not to use it.

"Escort"- the most interesting of all types of drug showdowns. The target is moving around the city (either alone or with an escort), and you need to take possession of this transport. The difficulty is that the car does not want to stop under your shots, but is trying to hide. You will have to kill the driver, trying not to damage the vehicle. The right decision: when chasing, stay as close to the key car as possible - your partners will deal with the bandits themselves, and all you have to do is drive the vehicle back to its place, not paying attention to the pursuers trailing behind.

Live your life 100% in The Ballad of Gay Tony

Everything you need to do to achieve absolute performance in completing the game:

Story missions - 60% (with the condition that each task, in turn, is completed 100%);

50 seagulls killed - 2.5%;

15 parachute jumps completed - 2.5%;

Success in 25 drug busts - 2.5%;

3 triathlons won - 2.5%;

Completed tasks for random passers-by - 4.75%;

6 rounds of underground battles won - 1.25%;

Spent time with friends (table hockey, darts, billiards, golf, drinks at a bar, lunch, strip club) - 5%;

Victory over an opponent in 4 mini-games (table hockey, darts, billiards, golf) - 6%;

Completed entertainment in Tony's clubs (successful dance in "Maisonette 9" and "Hercules"; won the champagne drinking mini-game) - 3%.

Club management

One day Dessie will call you and remind you that it would be nice to devote at least a little time to your direct responsibilities - working at the Maisonette-9 nightclub. To get started, you need to arrive at the club by nine o'clock in the evening, and it is advisable not to be late - otherwise you will miss all the fun.

At first glance, this is the most boring and repetitive activity in the game - all you have to do is run back and forth, inspect visitors, punish drunks, drug dealers, force especially greedy clients to pay and receive “special thanks” from the manager Joni in her personal account .

The most important thing usually happens in the middle of the shift - Louis will suddenly receive a call and be ordered to urgently rush to the Hercules club to fulfill the will of some model or celebrity. The assignments can be different - from a simple walk around the city to the store and back to shooting annoying paparazzi who caught a star in such an extraordinary place as a gay club.

These special tasks affect the completion rate of the game and must be completed. You can only complete one celebrity task per shift.

Skydiving

You need to land on the back of a truck. If only I could see him first...

After Luis learns how to skydive in the High Dive mission, you can perform several of the same free jumps available throughout the city. There are fifteen jumps in total, and if you want to achieve absolute performance in passing the game, you will have to complete them all.

This is the most difficult type of additional tasks: you not only need to jump and open the parachute before Lou turns into a cake, but also fulfill additional conditions.

Condition one: you jump from the top of a skyscraper, and the goal is to land on a moving car marked on the map. This is difficult to do - when falling, you need to calculate everything, from the time the parachute opens to the pace at which you fly just before landing.

The second class of tasks is jumping from a helicopter and flying through control points. This is much simpler, the main thing is to open the parachute as quickly as possible and calmly control it, flying through the air rings. Difficulty may arise only before landing. Try not to crash into a stone or a billboard, for example.

Triathlon

Not the best start to the triathlon - the competitors later opened their parachutes and took the lead.

Successfully completing the story mission This Ain't Checkers will give you access to the latest entertainment in crazy Liberty City. The triathlon is an uncompromising race in the air, on the water and on the roads of the city, and in that order. The rules of this race will be explained to you by Mori during the main mission, the only difference here is that instead of one opponent there will be three.

There are three races in the city, which are marked on the map with checkered flags. The whole difficulty of a triathlon is to successfully jump from a helicopter, open the parachute in time and land on the boat or at least close to it. If you are hopelessly behind in this section, you don’t even have to start the boat engine and feel free to start all over again. To prevent this from happening, try to open the parachute while at the lowest altitude possible so as not to lose precious seconds.

There should be no problems in controlling the boat - there is simply nothing to crash into in the expanses of water, so press on the gas and follow the control points.

The final frontier, the car race, shouldn't be a problem if you don't use an accelerator. The car is already fast and difficult to control - if you are already ahead of everyone in this section, just calmly drive to the finish line without any troubles.

Liberty City has never been known for its friendliness to game heroes. Here, danger can lurk at every turn, only here an easy car ride is accompanied by the howling of police sirens, and only in this city do business negotiations end with the exchange of “courtesy” from shotguns. And nothing has changed in it for many years...

As you progress through the game, you will have friends and girls. Just five friends and five girls. Friendship with each character will grant you privileges. Each friend (and three girls) will offer you unique opportunities, so it's important to be on good terms with them.

Friends

There are a total of five friends in the game. Each friend will open up unique opportunities for you when you reach a certain level of relationship. The success of each of your friends depends on how often you meet with them. Call him, invite him for walks and to various establishments and then you will have a good relationship with him. You can look at the level of your relationship with a friend in the Stats section in the pause menu.

Don't invite your friend to places he doesn't like, otherwise your relationship will get worse. During each meeting, you can go with a friend to four different places. If a friend calls you, and you cannot meet with him at this time, then agree to the meeting and immediately call him back and cancel the meeting, then your relationship will not be disrupted.

Girls

There are several girls in the game that Niko can date. Two of them will be available as you progress through the game's storyline, and the rest can be found through the in-game Internet. Call a girl to set up a date with her, and then pick her up within 1 in-game hour (2 minutes of real time) and take her to some establishment on the map. Note that you will not be able to ask a girl out on a date during a mission. After the date, at least 5 in-game hours (10 minutes of real time) will have to pass before you can ask your girlfriend out again. Don't call her too often, otherwise you will ruin your relationship with her.

Carmen and Kiki can be found on Love Meet (left), and Alex can be found on Crap List (right)

You can date several girls at the same time, but the more you have, the more difficult it is to maintain a relationship. It's better to go through the main storyline first before dating girls from the internet. Remember, the more girls you have, the more attention they require and the more often they will call you. Dating multiple girls at the same time is a dangerous business if one of those girls is Kiki Jenkins. She will keep an eye on you and will leave you if she finds out that you are dating another girl.

Michelle will become your girlfriend after the mission "Three"s a Crowd." After the mission "The Snow Storm" you will no longer be able to date Michelle. Meeting times: You can call Michelle from 6:00 am to 11:00 pm. Preferences:

Kate will become your girlfriend after the mission "Waste Not Want Knots." Meeting time: You can call Kate from 8:00 am to 12:00 am. Preferences:

CARMEN ORTIZ ("SoBoHoe")

Carmen can be found on love-meet.net after the mission "Out of the Closet." Her online nickname is "SoBoHoe." Meeting time: You can call Carmen from 1:00 pm to 6:00 am. Preferences:

Special Feature: You can call Carmen to replenish your health.

KIKI JENKINS ("LawChick")

Kiki can be found on the site love-meet.net as soon as you open the Algonquin district and complete the mission "Out of the Closet". Her online nickname is "LawChick." Meeting time: You can call Kiki from 6:00 am to 2:00 am. Preferences:

Special Feature: Call Alex and she'll give you 50% off all clothing in Liberty City for the next 24 hours.

Every girl has her own preferences and whims that you must cater to in order to get the most out of your date. Every girl has an initial opinion about each type of recreation. After visiting one of the vacation spots, the girl’s opinion about it will drop by five points, while her opinion about other similar vacation spots will drop by 1 point. For example, if you and a girl visited Cluckin' Bell in the Star Junction area, then her opinion of this place will drop by 5 points. At the same time, her opinion of all other Cluckin' Bells will drop by 1 point. When her opinion about some establishment falls below 25 points, she will refuse to go there.

Take your girl where she likes (left) and then try her luck (right)

To get the most out of your date, you should consider the girl's initial opinions about all activities. To do this, use the table below and try to diversify your dates from time to time. The better the date, the more the girl will love you. After that, you can try your luck and try the “hot coffee”.

Example: To get the most out of your first date with Carmen, pick her up in a Sultan RS while wearing Modo clothes and take her to any place she thinks highly of (eg Comrades Bar on Hove Beach). On the second date, take her to another place that she thinks highly of, but make sure that you have not been there with her yet (if the first time you were at Comrades Bar, then now go to, for example, Club Liberty).

Girls' initial opinions about vacation spots

Guys (five in number) with guns will immediately appear and you will have to engage in battle. Afterwards, collect money from them and approach Ivan. He will give a reward of $1000 for saving a life a second time.

Despite the wide variety of tasks in GTA4, random encounters with various characters in the most unexpected places in Liberty City are of particular interest. The ability to interact with random passers-by is another successful discovery by the developers, which allows you to take a step towards realism, enliven the city, and add variety to the gameplay. Perhaps the idea will find its way into GTA5. Most random encounters are closely related to the main plot of GTA4. Most often they occur after completing tasks. Places where you can find random passers-by are marked on the map with a blue figure of a man, which appears only a short distance from the target. Some characters will appear on the streets several times, others will prefer to limit themselves to just one meeting with Niko. There are no special rewards for fulfilling requests, except maybe money, additional difficulties and a few percent in the total treasury of 100% completion of the game.

Guys (five in number) with guns will immediately appear and you will have to engage in battle. Afterwards, collect money from them and approach Ivan. He will give a reward of $1000 for saving a life a second time.
