I heard if you make a road block near ATM's a lot of people start using them, then just start killing who ever withdraws money and steal it

You learn something everyday. Cheers man, I've always liked doing that in Mafia. Hearing an engine spring into life made things a bit more realistic for meyep hold down 'Y' when you get out rather than just tapping it to get out. engine/lights/radio all turn off
i think the alarm get set on the ferrari as i bumped it move the cars around and the alarm went off
Soldato
Yeah I didn't know that either, might explain why a couple of my cars vanished 
Soldato
Yeah. At the second safehouse last night I came up with a cunning plan.
Park 2 cars in the yellow box, and ram as many bikes in as possible! I ended up with bikes ontop of cars at one point at they were being saved. I logged on this morning for a quicky session and one of my cars had been stolen
Thiefs!

Wondered where all the bloody cars I kept parking were going. Hope the Porsche 911 lookalike is still there, that car is sweet.

Yay, managed to get some new missions last night
You guys were right yesterday, I made my way to the Cab Office and there was a yellow marker waiting for me. would have been nice for the game to tell me where to go though.

I think it's the same throught the game, if a letter is on the minimap, R for Roman, V for Vlad etc, it indicates that you can just go there and get a mission..
It does seem odd that phoning them doesn't trigger it for you, I phoned Vlad twice, he was always 'out' but turning up at the Comrades Pub that showed the V marker on the minimap, and hey presto, he gives you a mission...
One other thing I'm not sure which is the best way of doing it, I had a really nice car, and had wanted to do a Taxi job, of course I need to drive to the Cab office to pick up a cab, so I took the nice car, swapped over inside the garage, and then subsequently the car disappeared..
In this case, the only thing I could think of was to park it outside the safehouse, save the game, then leave the nice car there, nick anything to get me to the cab office, but this is a bit of a faff... what do you do if you want to keep the current car you are driving when going to a mission/job etc..?

If I need to get somewhere for a mission I either nick another car or use a taxi. Generally the cars I want to keep I use for cruising the streets with.
Soldato
Yeah I've started just using cabs to get to missions, if I need a car when I get there I just jack one.
Don't want to scratch my Porsche

Thats basically what I've done, got a nice red sports car parked outside the safehouse that I use for going out etc. If I'm going to do a job I usually stand in the middle of the road until a nice queue of traffic builds up, then walk down the queue to see whats about and jack something that takes my fancy
(obviously make sure there isnt a cop car in the queue) Or I jog where I'm going 
Soldato
There are a few along the way too.Finished it

ive found with putting any more than 2 cars in the parking spaces, is when you reload your game only 2 are left, whichever way of putting cars in. Pretty annoying as in one area i had cop car, porsche, ferrari and what looks like a dodge of some sort.
Soldato
Is it me or 4 star wanted level not that hard (in a vehicle anyway?). I went across by the airport to get some armour but accidentally strayed on to the airfield - automatic 4 star wanted level.
However not only did I jack a police car with ease, I was able to drive all the way back to the safehouse with relatively little trouble. Couldn't have done that in SA or VC!

Little Jacob - What A Legend!
Did the mission before you have to go to Bohan last night.
The whole sequence of events, including the one when Jacob was helping me out, made me feel like I was there.
Was awesome!
Little Jacob is one of the best parts of the game for me, brilliant
Soldato
I am finding it much easier to escape from the police when in a car. But when on foot it is harder !!
oh, try going into the cabaret club and shove someone, then just take cover. I did that and the guy pulled out and gun to point at me. At which one everyone else pulled a gun out and a MASSIVE gun fight ensure ! Was like a scene out of a movie !
Where is the cabaret club? Been looking for it for ages!
Soldato
i always kill that preacher bloke outside nikos secound safehouse , also the explosions in this game are impressive
