Keep Your Friend's Close....Mission.

I did that whole mission with the MP5, just tap R1 and O, R1 and O over and over until you lock onto Lance and he will be dead pretty quick. Sonny took about 2 clips and he didnt even fire his weapon at me! I just stood at the top of the stairs, held R1 on Sonny and held O, he stood there, waited for me to re-load and then stood there politely until I finished shooting and then he died.

GTA AI is worse than Pacman's AI!
 
I'll make a note of that, thanks 12 sec... :)

Now all i need to do is get to that mission.... -.-
 
Well i finally got to that mission.. First try sucked. How did you get lance so quickly? Did you get him before he went to the roof top?

Please answer back, id like to know hoq ya did it .. :) Thanks.
 
There's an adrenaline pill on the left corner of the roof, and a health power up on the helipad that will help a lot...

There's also the explosive barrels you can shoot at, to take out many of the thugs at once and hurt Lance. After you kill Lance, you have to quickly return to your safe and protect it from the another group of mob gangsters.
 
the key is to not worry about your safe, at that point in the game you should have plenty of money (at least $100,000) so just focus on the killing, you get your money back anyway.
 
I think you can, thanks to the Colt Python and then Stubby Shotgun that show near your desk, and both of them deliver one-hit kills.
 
I cant beat this damn mission!

Every time i try i die. Im using the MP5 and shooting everybody i can, but its just not working. By the time i get to the rooftop i already have 66 health. Why cant i beat it?

Hehe, didn't i say that there's a health icon on the roof? Yeah, i did. :lol:
 
here is how I beat the mission easier. Get a magnum, automatic shotgun, and some grenades. At the start of the mission shoot them with either weapon then when you fight lance run up and shoot with the auto-shotgun. then when you're on the roof keep busting him and his little buddies with the auto-shotgun. Finally when you return to fight sonny dont run down the stairs to shoot him, just walk back and chuck grenades down the stairs and he'll be dead in a few seconds. Another note is that when you need to dodge a lot of bullets try running and shooting with an uzi, but this can prove useless on the rooftop.
 
i used the colt for this mission ..as soon as "go kill lance appears" at the bottom of the screen i went after him he made it to the roof ..all i had to do was shoot the barrels that he's next to (lost quite a bit of health on the way back down though but this did not matter..

all i had to do was go right down to the bottom level at the staircase there is a room with power up's one being armour this helped a lot

Sonny was very easy to kill only took me two shots with the colt ..but i just ran at him with guns blazing ..I find this to be the best tactic when killing folk:D

This was my solution to this mission took me two attempts
 
I got an idea

Ok Use the colt to kill everyone until "Go Kill Lance" Appears.I'll use a Rocket laucher and blast lance.I wonder if that would do good.
 
I tried the rocket lancher on lance not much of a help im affraid .. Im sure i got him right in the face with it but he still managed to get to the roof

And to cap it all a was getting shot to bits while trying to line up my shot on him .
This resulted in my death in the first run

Tried it, Rocket launcher just blows up right in front of you and takes some of your life. It sucks.

I finally beat the mission, heres what to do for a sure and somewhat easy win:

Heres what you need:
1. Get a SPAZ Shotgun with a few dozen shots.
2. MP-5 with some shots.. preferrably 200+, you might use it alot.
3. M60, i got by with only 100 shots (aka 1 pick up.
4. 100 Armor + 100 Health

To get the M60, get the police suit from the police station in washington beach and go to the military base. The M60 is at the top of the left tower as you go in.

Heres the strat:
First off, go up to the pink marker. After the cutscenes, stay behind the desk and rip out your MP-5, dont move from your spot, i find that if you stay behind your desk less people come. If you move to the ammunition for the mp-5, about 15-20 will come. Once it says kill lance, run on out of the room and youll see the cutscene. After that, run straight down the main stairs and to the right, ignoring any shots your taking. Head down the steps to the basement and go in that little room, picking up health and armor. DONT take any of the guns in there! After that, head up the stairs 2 floors and go to where lance is, dont go up to him, but stay down the hallway so you can see him. Rip out your SPAZ Shotgun and aim at him, firing until hes dead. Afterwards, head back downstairs and pick up health and armor.

Once thats done, go right once you leave the little room, into the little passage that leads into the pool area. Once there, head towards the maze and go through it, taking out anybody you see with yout MP-5. Head through the maze and exit it, then go to the first set of steps at the beginning of the mansion (not the ones you go down after coming out of the maze.) You should see 3 limos with men periodically getting out and running inside (Here comes the easiest part..) Take out your M60, aim at each one of the limos and take them out. Afterwards, head up inside and run immediately to the top of the steps, you should see a cutscene with sonny down at the bottom. DONT go into the office, instead, just duck down right after the cutscene (only thing you should see is a bit of sonny's body and his head.) Aim at his head with the M60, and fire until hes dead. Once hes dead, your done. Mission complete.

Hope everybody understands that...
 
it also helps if you do the pizza missions and vigilante missions (150 armor and 150 health)
 
Um, when you get done with the rooftop, you should run to the bottom of the stairwell to pick up health and armor. It also helps if you get the 150 health and 150 armor before the mission, but I didn't find out about that until a week after I finished it.
