I did the first two, but that damn forklift just won't drive in a
straight line.

The OG-LOC motorcycle chase seems to have the collision probability
turned down and the chasee waits for you to recover when necessary. A
lot more fun than having him just take off when you collide or fall
off your bike. By far the most exciting chase sequence in a GTA to
date.

Yeah, I figured that out on my one attempt, but he was 3/4 dead before
I went to help him. I'll try it your way on the next pass. There were
missions in VC I really hated, and a few I never finished (the RC
helicopter planting bombs with a KB/mouse.) The Uncle Sam looks
mandatory though.

Wish RS would allow the player to bypass a mission at player's
discretion. I like control over my games, I play for fun, and would
like them to leave it up to me to cheat or not.

yep, has to be done. I don't think there are many missions on the
first island which don't, except the side missions like prostitution
or deliveries. San Fiero has missions you don't need to do, which is
great because those particular ones bite the big one :O)

I agree, I don't like linear games much. At least with SA you have a
bunch of stuff to do, but yes, you always come back to the one you're
stuck on. You won't have any real problems with Uncle San now you know
your priority though.

have you tried leaving the front gate locked and just opening the
warehouse? jump in the forklift and line up the crates to put in the truck
_then_ open the front gate to let ryder in.

from memory, you'll only have to deal with around 4 - 6 guards.

I never thought to leave the "path" like that. I would just quickly load 2
or 3 boxes, then go out and help kill, get back on and load more, get off
and kill guards until i was loaded. 3 tries for this mission.

Dunno if it's posssible to kill whatshisname on the motorcycle chase before
he stops. After 3 tries, i remembered i had molotov cocktails, and stopped
the bike at the end of the fence, ran 1/2 way across the street, and tossed
one onto the steps. Done..
