Opposite the gym in Ganton.

What a fuckin amazing game, have been playing it all weekend and have only just got to San Fierro!

Wiped out the Ballas and have 3.7 million in the bank! Has anyone else bet on the horses and won this much??

I bet 17,000 the first time then all my winnings a second time, all on the horse with the highest odds!

Cha CHING!

Just remeberd my own Q. When do the planes/helicopters in San Fierro become unlocked?

I've managed to clamber over the fence but all of them are locked up!!! I've even flown some of them in Los Santos (dodo and the lear jet looking one).

I want to fly the spitfire looking one but CJ just pulls on the door. :(

Inside track betting, couldn't tell you where they are exactly but you rob one when on a mission with Catalina.
 
Re: Official GTA: San Andreas Thread - DVD5 Format

I think its near Mount Chillad, cant be certain though, sorry!
 
Re: Official GTA: San Andreas Thread - DVD5 Format

I found an Inside Track Racing north west of Los Santos last night whilst on a random drive into the back country. I can't remember exactly where it was though, sorry.
 
Re: Official GTA: San Andreas Thread - DVD5 Format

Its quite a while tbh Prof, Ive just recently opened them up and i think it took a good few missions before i got SF open!

How long before i can open up the second city (San Fierro)? I'm currently doing the mission at the Army base in Los Santos.

Which one is this?

It takes quite a while I think I had about twelve+ hours of gameplay before I had it opened.

Does anyone know why I can't get into the planes/helicopters in SF airport?

Or when I'll be able to????

Cheers.
 
Re: Official GTA: San Andreas Thread - DVD5 Format

12 hours, holy shite! I'm gonna need to start playing this game for longer periods! Good job I have next week off work.
 
Re: Official GTA: San Andreas Thread - DVD5 Format

I'm probably wrong here, but perhaps you can only get in planes once all 3 cities have been unlocked.

Hmm, so loads more hours before i can unlock San Fierro. Well, at least i'll get to know it better. I often get lost on my missions :mrgreen:
 
Re: Official GTA: San Andreas Thread - DVD5 Format

Me too prof, I must admit its taking me a while to get used to Los Santos, the different elevations in area make it quite tricky. I'm stuck trying to do the Uncle Sam mission at the moment, although I have only tried it once.

That's what i'm on too. The one at the Army base with the forklift. (you shoot the button panels to open the gate/doors)

I was told a while back that i could recruit and run a 2 man gang, but i wasn't told how. How and when do you do it? Is it in a future mission?
 
Re: Official GTA: San Andreas Thread - DVD5 Format

Robbing Uncle Sam - help out Ryder from time to time, go out and shoot some guys and then do a couple more crates, makes it a breeze.

The gang - you need more respect, but it's also only available after a mission later on I think.
 
Re: Official GTA: San Andreas Thread - DVD5 Format

isnt it better to make a archive in here for GTA , for helping people , and posting stuff....
 
Re: Official GTA: San Andreas Thread - DVD5 Format

Robbing Uncle Sam - When I get home I will give this one another go. I think what I will do this time is hop over the wall, shoot any guards that are near by, then go over and open the hanger door and shoot the guards in there, then maybe try and move some crates before I open the gate for Ryder to come in. That might make things a little easier.
 
Re: Official GTA: San Andreas Thread - DVD5 Format

Well we had a seperate thread for that but everyone abused it. . . . but it would have been nice to easily search for help.

Nah, its so much easier than that Reactor, just do what CD said. Kill the gaurds trying to take Ryder out when he gets a bit of heat and then just concentrate on getting those crates in the van when there is no trouble, but u have to make sure u keep helping Ryder out when the gaurds come back!!!

Yeah this way ClassicD says makes the mission a breeze ;)

Ive just done a race - High Stakes, Low-Rider, I found it quite annoying getting close to the end of the race a car would clip me and I'd lose control, but I got there in the end, cant wait to go to other cities without having 4 star cops on me. Ive just done the Life's a Beach anyone know how far im off ?

cheers

Its actually much easier to fly all planes. You need to get your flying skill to more than half bar by using the unlocked air planes in Los Santos Airport. Eventually you'll win the Pilot License and will be able to enter all airports and all planes.

Las Venturas is soooooo sweet!!
 
Re: Official GTA: San Andreas Thread - DVD5 Format

Do you know about the marker you can place anywhere on the map?
 
Re: Official GTA: San Andreas Thread - DVD5 Format

Im not sure really, I suggest doing flying school when you can.

I just flew around doing parachute jumps time by time, eventually i got pretty high on the bar.
