"Grab and throw 25 harassers."
Ok cool, I know which ones are harassers. Problem is, I can't throw them. This may seem stupid, but someone help me out please.
If I hit the B button while they're near me, I just gentle push them. If I hit B while holding RT, I tackle them (or does nothing).
I can't target them to go into combat mode with LT, so how do I throw them?

just don't move when the Beggar is next to you. Just hold down RT and press B, he will grab them.

The beggars are insanely annoying so i really enjoyed getting this achievement. So much so that when i got it i continued to launch them into walls...
Anywaaay, yeah, if you find you're using tackle, just stay still and RT +B in their general direction. They tend to just stop in front of you.

The most annoying ones are the half naked crackheads that attack you. Especially when you are on a timed quest for an informer. I always get cought and have to redo the damn thing lol.
:uzi: Wish I had my halo sniper rifle for these guys lol

I believe this game would be a little better if they included a crossbow. A long range assassination would be pretty awesome.

Didn't he have a crossbow in the opening cutscene? Do you not get it in the game?

By the way, throwing them doesn't kill them, does it?
PS: The crossbow was dropped during development and was replaced by the throwing knives.

Oh ok. And no throwing them doesn't kill them. Your synch bar will drop a tiny bit but no one really cares. People will mention that you are a jerk for throwing a beggar but no one will do anything about it. You can even throw them in plain view of a guard and you usually just get a "don't do that again".

I've thrown a beggar and had them crash into another person, sending them both sprawling. That was pretty funny, but the guards DID come after me for that.

Yea I knew it got stripped I just didn't know if you get it back. But speaking of the crossbow. Did anyone notice the completely unconventional way he used the crossbow in the intro. He totally jammed the edge into that guys side. That made me laugh my ass off.

i dont think you get the cross bow, i believe it was cut from the game
because they want it to be some what realistic and reloading the crossbow would take to long and cut from the game play

Yea that's fine with me. I like the knives anyway.

I saw an interview with Jade Raymond and she mentioned the reloading issue as well. Apparently they were going to have to sacrifice authenticity for speed, so it wouldn't interrupt the flow of the game, but they weren't willing to do that. Knives are a cooler replacement anyway.

I had some issues with "accidentally" throwing beggers into the scaffolding, making the thing collapse, begger dies. Also the randomly hitting you guys are pretty annoying, but even more annoying when you ignore a begger and start climbing a building near them they start throwing rocks at you knocking you down.:uzi:for many beggers this was the last thing they did

I give it a 8.5 or 9. It is a great game that looks and plays well, but it has a few problems which we've outlined already. Redundancy, load times, AI for crowds and long inescapeable cutscenes hurt this game and the plot. The crossbow would have made this too easy. Pierce Brosnon in the Matador, not James Bond.

I've found that a good way to deal with the retarded guys is to punch them. They run off after you give them a knuckle sandwich.

when throwing beggars, make sure not to aim them into stands as this WILL kill them.
...or off ledges...
....or off docks...
