Jacobs drug runs suck, I mean it gives you like 30 seconds to get to the drop off point so you find yourself rushing as quickly as possible to the deal. I would prefer it if they gave you longer, but made you drive a longer distance because basically if you crash you're not going to make it.

 

[NokkonWud]

Not true, I crashed lots p) and still made them all.

 

[Alrik]

True enough for me, got in the car at 11:45 and had to make the drop by 12:15 and it was in such an awkward place to find there was no chance of finding it first time round.

Dont always follow the gps as it doesnt take into account shortcuts or 1 way streets

oh and Bruce Kronenberg is the only "real" Niko Bellic as he provided the voice (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0472152/)

You better tell Rockstar, as they've credited Michael Hollick

same, everyone knows 1 way streets go both ways if you drive aggressively enough

Heh. Is the second number the times a player has called the police? I do that all time to steal a cop car.

Sorry if this has been asked already, but Dwayne has a stat for 'like' and as far as I can tell, you can't invite him out to do stuff a la Brucie, Roman, Packie, etc.

Am I missing something here?

 

[Psymonkee]

Why are people using the GPS anyway? are you that bad at navigation?

Phew, just completed this one too! 3rd attempt. Drive back was pretty hairy, couldn't shake the wanted-level at all so had to go out of my way to the P&S.
Great mission though
