Does seem a lot of padding. Without posting a spoiler I'm at the stage of the game where the safehouse has been moved to a different location but many of the missions are still sourced in the original area. That's 4 or 5 minutes travelling just to obtain/start a mission. Add to that having to forage for the decent weapons as these still aren't available at the gunshop (also armour is $500 a time) it does start to get a bit tedious. It's not as if the driving etc. levels up as it did in SA to compensate.

Get friendly with Little Jacob.

Protip: Your cousin owns a CAB business ;) And you can skip journey times in cabs.

I am still near the beginning, is it worth it doing taxi missions for Roman?

It only pays 41 quid a ride that takes 10 minutes and seems like a waste of time.

I haven't done any yet, don't really see the point - got plenty of money and Roman respects me 100% and likes me 100%
I'm trying to complete the main story missions within the 30 hours for the acheivment before doing submissions - I believe you need these for the 100% complete acheivment.
 
So I have been ignoring hanging out with Little Jacob cos I don't want to be exposed to his ganga smoke bra. He will hook me up with a place in Algonquin if I roll wit him?

There's nothing funnier than going drinking with LJ and then drink driving home being chased by the Police with smoke pouring out of the passenger window. (except Brucie)

Why rush the game? :(

I'm not exactly rushing it, TBH I don't think I'll get the achievment this playthrough (I've messed about too much), I'm just concerntrating on the story missions - once complete I'll be in Free-Roam mode so I can explore and do whatever side-missions, and go for the other achievments at my leisure.

TBH I like quite linear games, so just doing the story missions suit me :)
