Need help with a couple things

[flyghboy]

This is starting to frustrate me. All the FAQs list the film reel in the warehouse shack of the Italia Hauling company like you can just stroll in and take it. I can get inside the warehouse, but keep getting killed and have yet to find any kind of shack. Is it on the upper level or lower level? I need specific tips on how to get this one.

Also, the Stained Glass execution is giving me trouble, too. The businesses that have windows you can use for this have too many goons around them and they surround me and take me out before I can even see them. If I'm lucky enough to survive and get down to own gangster, he won't let me hold on to him long enough to throw him through the window and another hit to subdue him will kill him. Does anyone have a specific location that is ideally suited for trying to get this style? Please. Any help would be great. Thanks.

I think thats on the lower level at the back of the warehouse in the right corner. For the stained glass there is a bar at the Columbus circle towards the top of the map. That seems to be the easiest place for me to get it but there are several other bars in town to get the stained glass achievment.

If they are surrounding you just get out of your car/open fire from a distance. If you go head on and start shooting infront of the business it is very easy to get surrounded, because sometimes gangmembers hang out in an alley or on the opposite side of the street.

This was pretty helpful, thanks. I think I did make it to the lower level of the warehouse once but kept getting killed. For the stained glass, is that one in Hell's Kitchen? Thanks for the tips.

It should be near the Midtown/Hell's kitchen boarder. Heck you can go to any bar or building with 1st level windows and just toss them out. Also don't pick on the Barzinis early in the game for this unless getting killed is on your list of things to do. Pick on the Tags/Straccis because they are the easiest to get executions with.

If you go west of the Safehouse you start at in the beginning of the game, there is a shop/racket that belongs to the family with the big red C for their insignia. There is a lone guy right at that corner. I used him for all of my executions that I wanted to plan out, including the traffic accident execution.

As for stained glass specifically, you can toss a gangster through any first floor window. It doesn't matter if they're falling into, or out of the shop, so long as they pass through the window and die. I personally would knee-cap them with the gun then beat them to within a couple punches of death. Then toss them through the window. Knee-capping someone makes all executions that don't require a standing target SOOOO much easier.

For the Italia Hauling company reel, I just got it while I was taking over the warehouse. Some you can run in and grab (like the one near the Tattaglia compound) but others require a LOT more finesse. Honestly, I think that this reel was one of the toughest to get on enemy turf. Mostly because of those damned windows and the fact that you have to go through the warehouse to get behind the fence.

How do I push? I can hold them over the window and they fall out but I can't seem to push them through it.

You should've made a thread for this, this is REAL old.

When your grabbing to them, bring them to something low, push LS forward, this will lean them over. Then push LS forward again, and it will throw them out.

You can also grab and hold the guy a few feet from the window then push up on LS and release the right trigger...then it's flying time for the mobster!

The film reels guide is all wrong. I followed the guide and I only have 97 of the film reels. Def. ain't worth going back and looking over the guide again.

Heh yeah it is old. Just gotten back into the game and got my executions.
