well lets hand it to rockstar for making another 80+ hour completionist game. The other GTAs took a while to get 100% as well. I think the pidgeons will be the worst...

20+ hour game, but anyway i dont think the numbers above are correct regardless of what the guide says.. theres 94 missions for a start, and no way u get 68% completion for doing them, i was on about 65% but thats including part of the 10% for friends

i've only got these 4 left to do and i'm only 77% + theres no % for the street races or package delivery (unless they are counting them as the story missions)

Car Thefts
Deliver all 30 vehicles to the garage
2%

Most Wanted
Kill all 30 PEDs on list
2.5%

Flying Rats
Find all 200 pigeons
2.5%

Unique Stunt Jumps
Complete all 50 jumps
2.5%

Total = 86.5% would be missing 13.5%

Actually the pigeons aren't that hard (ive been researching). I located a map online and their all listed and they do not move that area. Locating all 200 will be equal to locating the 300 hidden orbs in crackdown. A challenge but by no means impossible.

hows the guide? worth the purchase or no?

i haven't decided yet. there's some good basic gameplay info, but 99% of the guide is main story walkthroughs (though it appears it goes off on tangents for side missions) and the other 1% is maps.

i still haven't found out what doing stuff like shooting all the pigeons is actually good for. (besides 100%, that is)

Hi all, I know this is offtopic, but some of you have completed the game and I'm asking for help.

After "Diamonds are the ladies best friends" (mission 81) there is nothing on the map and nobody calls. Maybe someone could tell me what to do?
Thanks in advance.

WTF you gotta find all random charcters??? :(
Im sure i missed some already, shot and this car mission is fucke dup aswell, loool

The activities are Bowling, Pool, Darts, these you will have to have a friend along with you and beat them at the game.

The other activity is Qubed (the arcade game) you will need to beat the high score.

Exactly the same here, WTF.

Completed all the story missions, ending up with 94 at 62.5%. The only odd icon left on the map was Hitman(from the payphone), completing which got me to 64.5%. All my friends hate me with low like % because I was ignoring them while plowing through the story.

EVERYBODY POST WITH YOUR COMPLETION % AT END OF STORY MODE, THX.

Quick update since my last post. Being at 64.5 after the Assassin mission, I did the Darts 180 and Bowling 3-strikes, previously won against Kate in pool so I wasn't worried about that. Still 64.5 at that point, got QUB3D top score achievement my percentage went to 65.75%.

So I think that my percentage now has the 5% for the 'Activities' portion of 100%, which means that my missions are even shorter of 68% from the stupid guide. I don't have the Warm Coffee achiev yet, seems like a 'procedural mission', so I'll go for that and see if % goes up any.

Post any other ideas of what goes into the 68% so we can get this sorted.

Can you always go back later to get your friends to like you/hang out with them for the completion achievement and the friends one? I've kind of been ignoring a few of them as well.

Right, this thread is now the official "Figure out what exactly 100% entails" thread. I'll go find someone to sticky it, maybe. I'm not done with story and I've only done a few activities and three dates. I should be getting pretty close to actual completion percentage for story when I'm done.

Noisy Neighbour
05-02-2008, 05:35 PM
Ok:

As i wanted the achievement for 30 hours, i did nothing but missions, all 94 of them, and got 60%. So i can confirm that you get 60% for the 94 missions alone.

Heres something you forgot to explain about the main part of the story percentage that it has pretty much been brought up, especially by you Noisy Neighbour.

In the guide under the box it gives details on what the procedural mssions are, and those are:
Little Jacob drug delvery (2%)
Brucie 10 cars export (2%)
Brucie Races (2%)
Assassinations (2%)

So 60% on just main stories, 4 of these extras pretty much introduced to you by major characters do equal 68% that you guys have been mentioning getting after doing it.

Now there is the Roman taxi driving thing but it doesn't seem to be required, I haven't done it and its a bit far back from my last saves to try.

This did happen in a bunch of previous GTA's, you could only get 99.99%. It's been fixed I think, but he's probably not intentionally lying.

What are you on about, i clearly stated that it was 60% for 94 missions alone, i never said anything about the other missions. I was just stating that if you do only 94 missions yourll get 60% as others had said 62.5 and stuff.

Bl0ss0m
05-02-2008, 07:02 PM
Maybe its just me not being awake, but I quoted you to explain to others that this extra 8% from the main missions are broken down into those 4 extra things that was mentioned in the guide but not by the OP, and with that there are people confused why they didn't get 68%.

I am just trying to clarify but I didn't do a good job I see.

So your telling me that:

Little Jacobs Drug Courier Missions
Brucie's Car Collection via Email
Brucie's Race's via Mobile
Roman's Taxi Service

Don't even go towards 100%?, all that time wasted. :(

05-02-2008, 07:06 PM
does anyone know if the roman missions are required for the 100%. i wont spoil anything but many of you will understand what i mean when i say that i can no longer to missions for roman because of certain circumstances with his taxi business. im stuck at 60% for roman missions, so does this mean i cannot get 100% achievement or do the roman missions not count towards this?

I am telling you that they do, didn't you see the (2%) next to each one? they are added to the 68% main story completion hence why people finished the story and are saying "I only got 62% whats going on?" kinda stuff.

PTPetisco
05-02-2008, 07:12 PM
Guys, an importante question for me. So the people who finished the game:

Is the 30 hour good enough to finish the story, concerning the achievment?
Can we go for the story missions only, and than, when we open sand box game, get ALL the other stuff and secondary mission without starting a new game?
In stats, when says: missions passed, it refers only for the main story? Or other secondary ones too, like hang out with friends?

I'm kind of worry, since I gor 28% of game, 39 missions passed and about 12.30 hours of play. If I concentrate only in story missions, can I get the 30 hour achievment?

Please, I need to know how I'm gonna play by now, so any advice are welcome! :D

PTPetisco
05-02-2008, 07:13 PM

05-02-2008, 07:35 PM
If anyone can do the Roman stuff try it, i am wondering abot this myself but I don't think it would effect it towards 100% it shouldn't just go away like that.

I thought Roman's only side missions were the Taxi jobs you can do for him. If so, these are only to earn a little extra cash; there's no completion criteria beyond getting the customer to the destination and getting paid! You can do as many as you like, but it won't count towards the 100% game completion statistic.

Slane
05-02-2008, 07:56 PM
Roman doesn't affect the 100% due to what happens at the end of the game.

Friends
Open all unique abilities and complete all activities (except for Roman & Dwayne)
10%

Activities meaning, the drug running/racing/etc. not having to do a "date" with them all for each doing drinking, bowling, eating, etc.?

PTPetisco
05-02-2008, 08:34 PM
Another question:
the 90% relation and activities with the characters, is in the story? Or can we leave and done only in the end of the story, in the sand box?

Bl0ss0m
05-02-2008, 09:56 PM
Activites can be done after the story.

You can do what Noisy Neighbour did and is do only the story missions and do everything else after you finished it.

Add this to the list of 5% in playing all games with computer or friends.
Bowling you must win a FULL not half game as I've been doing the last few days.

patches4711
05-02-2008, 10:36 PM
So for the activities do you have to win darts, pool, and a full game of bowling from each of your friends?? Thanks

Bl0ss0m
05-02-2008, 10:42 PM
Yes gotta beat them in darts, pool, and bowling, but you don't have to beat all with a full game, just one to fulfill the 5% section of "Activities Beat computer or Friend at all activities once 5%"

I was wondering if once I got my friends (Brucie, Little Jacob, etc) to 100% like me, does it ever go down? If it does, could I just get them to 100% and kill them to make them stay there lol. If i did this, could I still get 100%

It will go down if they call and you don't want to hang out with them. You also cannot kill them, only injur and you will loose 10% I just tried it out now.

Thanks. Another question. Once they all hit 100%, do I have to bother with them, or should I maintain going out with them considering since it already hit 100% of the 10% of the entire friendship?

I know if they call you wanting to go on a date, and you accept to go out with them. You can turn around and call them back and cancel the date and not lose any percentage.

Bl0ss0m
05-03-2008, 02:33 AM
I am guessing they could still drop off if you don't maintain the percentage so yeah you should still go out with them once in a while.

I have no clue where it is and there isn't a way to check the ones who've already found. This is all I need for 100% but it's killing me. I'll keep looking and let u know details on getting 100%.

I have not finished them yet but I did notice at least 1 (I am sure there may be more but I said, I am not finished) where on the map they over lap such as these one: (These 2 are very noticable next to year other when you get there, so you may of got these 2 already, ones on the ground the other is on the wall above). So you may want to go look at both maps and see if there may be 2 at the same location.

In the guide under the box it gives details on what the procedural mssions are, and those are:

Little Jacob drug delvery (2%)
Brucie 10 cars export (2%)
Brucie Races (2%)
Assassinations (2%)

So 60% on just main stories, 4 of these extras pretty much introduced to you by major characters do equal 68% that you guys have been mentioning getting after doing it.

FFS why didn't the guy that posted this thread include these if it spells it out for the 68%...

There is two there, if you use the in game website whattheydonotwantyoutoknow.com there are a few larger dots meaning there are more than one pigeon around.

FFS why didn't the guy that posted this thread include these if it spells it out for the 68%...

To tell you the truth when I first got the guide and looked at the chart, I didn't bother reading what was under it but when I did, I had to read it a few times to get it into my head how the main 68% chunk was added up along with the information posted in this thread. Without it I don't think I would've figured out doing only story missions would give 60%.

Maybe the guys working on the guide should've broken down the chart a bit better.

Sorry that came out wrong. I meant the initial topic poster. I don't know what the guide looks like, so whatever.

The PROPER guide is as follows:

Story Missions - 60%
Complete every available story mission(90-94 total depending on spare/kill decisions)

Procedural Missions - 8%
Little Jacob drug delivery - 2%
Brucie 10 cars export - 2%
Brucie Races - 2%
Assassinations - 2%

Car Thefts - 2%
Deliver all 30 vehicles to the garage

Friends - 10%
Open all unique abilities and complete all activities (except for Roman & Dwayne)

Activities - 5%
Beat computer or Friend at all activities once:
Darts vs friend or computer win - 1.25%
Bowling vs friend in a FULL round win - 1.25%
Pool vs friend or computer win - 1.25%
QUB3D beat high score - 1.25%

Random Characters - 5%
Find all the RCs and complete their encounter missions (except Jeff, Cherise Clarence & Ivan)

Most Wanted - 2.5%
Kill all 30 PEDs on list

Vigilante - 2.5%
Complete 20 crimes (these do not need to be done continuously)

Flying Rats - 2.5%
Find all 200 pigeons

Unique Stunt Jumps - 2.5%
Complete all 50 jumps

Total = 100%

I have a question about the special abilities, there are only 4 yeah?

Roman - Taxi Service
Brucie - Helicopter
Packie - Bomb
Little Jacob - Guns

Or are there any more? I don't want to miss any before I complete the story!

For the meet random characters do you need to find them all or just the ones tht gives you the no more strangers achievement?

checkahh
05-03-2008, 02:33 PM
Well if u get the achievement u met all of them!
Like me i got the achievement but im still missing 2-3 missions i gotta do from them, that counts awell i think

How many are Brucie's Races? 20? Because 20 are needed for the "Genetically Different" Achievement...

05-03-2008, 03:15 PM
wait, so i have to beat every friend at every activity once? i'm at 90.5% and i only have to do the stevie cars and pigeons.. those would only add 4.5%. so what are the other 5% i'm missing?

I have not finished them yet but I did notice at least 1 (I am sure there may be more but I said, I am not finished) where on the map they over lap such as these one: (These 2 are very noticable next to year other when you get there, so you may of got these 2 already, ones on the ground the other is on the wall above). So you may want to go look at both maps and see if there may be 2 at the same location.Yeah there are a couple of spots like that throughout the city but I've just gone through half of the locations again and still nothing. Although there was one where the pigeon was already killed even though I don't remember ever killing it. Also there is one on top of the statue of happiness' forehead but I can't tell if it's still there or not. Guess I'll have to do a complete walkthrough again of all 200:(

Weird: I got exactly 90% and:
-done the 94 missions
- Little Jacobs drug delivery
- Brucie car export
- Brucie Races
- Assassinations
- delivered all 30 vehicles
- won bowling, darts, pool, beaten the Qubed record
- met all random characters, at least i got the achievement "no more strangers"
- killed all 30 PEDs on list
- completed 20 crimes

Now im not sure about " Open all unique abilities and complete all activities"
I got Brucies Chopper-thing, Packies Bomb, Jakobs guns after the story was complete. I also had Romans Cab and Francis' wanted thing. Do i need anything else?
Cause i think that only the pigeons and the monster stunts are left, but then i would have only 95%...

same here, exact same percentage. what you need to do is complete EVERY activity with brucie, packie and jacob. that includes shows and strip clubs. completing everything with each character gives another 1.67%. 1.67x3=5% :)

Dwayne is the 5th friend and he has a special ability that allows you to call for backup. He'll send 2 guys to you. Also the 3 girls that you can date on lovemeet.com each have a special ability.

Only Brucie, Packie and Little Jacob's special abilities are required to be unlocked for the 100% game completion statistic.

Thanks! But how about the heli/boat tours with Brucie? Do i have to do every single one? Or is one enough?
And for the rest: 1*pool/bowling/etc. with each of them is enough, right?

Just a quick question I haven't received a phone call from Jeff to move onto his second mission and I'm not sure i will think its glitched or something taking forever. Is the random character Jeff's missions required for 100% completion as I'd hate to have to start a brand new game just because of something so stupid.

Kid A
05-04-2008, 02:26 AM
I just finished Jeff's second mission and it took forever to get that call, a good two or three in-game days. It has to be random because originally I got it fairly quickly but ended up exiting out of the call on accident, reloaded my save, and that's when it took 2-3 days.

For some characters, I can't take them out to certain activities. Like I can't take someone(Little Jacob?) bowling. If I say we're gonna play darts and I go with him to the bowling alley it doesn't do anything. Any tips?

mattyb89
05-04-2008, 02:32 AM
It's been about 10 in game days for me and still no call, I've done all the other random character missions now just his last 2 left bit if they count towards nothing then I want bother worrying about them just want clarification.

JRML970
05-04-2008, 04:30 AM
Yeah I would like a little clarity on exactly what to do when getting all activities. Do I have to take everyone on all activites. i.e. bowling, darts, club, show, pool, drinking, etc? Or just one person and beat them at bowling, darts, and pool?

EDIT: Found details in another thread and it says you do every activity with jacob, packie, and brucie.

le b3nz0r
05-04-2008, 05:42 AM
I can second what JRML said. I have the strat guide and it explicitly says on page 42 (for Little Jacob) and 105 (for Brucie) that you must do every activity for 100%. That being eating, bowling, strippers, etc.

JRML970
05-04-2008, 05:50 AM
Yeah just finished up with all and I can confirm it. Finally got 100%:woop: And thanks to all who helped thorugh tips, guides, and strategies. Oh and you can use spawing cars cheat and still get 100%.

how do you take jacob bowling though for example? it isnt on the phone list and when you try to take him inside of there he's all " no way, mon. ". this is killing me :mad: i've been at 98.75% for an entire day. i'm so stumped.

i did about three times now >_< with each person. jacob, packie, brucie. ex: called jacob > went and ate > dropped him off home.

i did one activity at a time to make sure i was getting them and doing them all. still no go. where the hell is the 1.25% i'm missing coming from!?

05-04-2008, 09:47 AM
Ill need someone to confirm this...

But im almost sure that you can call jacob, and invite him to drink, and then just take him bowling, he wont like it... but he will still play.

Also you dont have to do just ONE activity... i can clearly remember going out with brucie drinking, then stepping up for dinner, an then i took him to the cabaret (he complaint about the bar, the burger place not being fancy enough, and bitched a lot on the cabaret)...

So im guessing this can make the activities faster to achieve.

j0hnny
05-04-2008, 09:48 AM
You bowled a FULL game with each that can?

yes. i took into consideration the first time around that i only bowled a half a game with them so i went bowling again as well. if they beat me one game does that throw it off? like say they win 3 games before i even win one?

blah. . i plan on doing another activity run today. .

Info from GTA4 strategy guide:
Vigilante
Complete 20 crimes (these do not need to be done continuously)
2.5%



I cant understand this one? Do i just need to randomly kill people and such?

murgo
05-04-2008, 11:02 AM
I cant understand this one? Do i just need to randomly kill people and such?

no, you get into a police car, use the computer and select recent crimes. complete 20 of those and you're done.

oh and btw, i went to shows / strip clubs with jacob, packie and brucie... guess what, i got my missing 5%!!! now i only need to deliver 9 more stevie cars and i'm done :) yeah baby yeah!

I was at 95% this morning but I did all activites with Brucie and Packie and it went up, I did all activites with Jacob and it stayed at 98.33%.
I've tried to get Jacob bowling but the yellow arrow doesn't show up.
Any ideas???

bout to try this now. . . i coulda swore i tried and he still wouldnt play. . blah. this is KILLING me. 1.25%. . . only random chars i havent met were clerance and ivan. i just started dating carmen thinking i missed something with dating. . still nothing. .

i'm wondering you guys who have 100% did you help ivan/clerance as random characters? i was reading on other forums that ivan may play a part. . not trying to start rumors or anything. seriously looking for answers to find my last 1.25% by tomorrow. -_-

could barely dating michelle in the beginning/not dating period be hindering my 100%? i went out with michelle for the mission date and that was about it. michelle and kate likes are both at 50% for me. carmen is at 80% now. i'm even trying to get dwaynes respect/like up to 100% in hopes that does something. . .im beyond stumped.

I can confirm this, Ivan, Clarence and Clarise (dwaynes ex) give you a few extra missions if you let them live.

But as i read on various forums, they dont seem to count towards the 100% game completition

THESE MIGHT BE RELEVANT!!!

After the mission where you decide to kill or let charise die, i choose to kill her, after a few missions Dwayne called me and Asked me if id really killed her off! because he just saw a girl that looked exactly like her (he says the location, but i cant remember!)
I was wondering if there is a twin somewhere inthe city, and if that twin can give the extra mission Charise gives if she lived...

AND... when i found Vlad (i saved him during storyline) he "refreshes my memory" by telling me he is one guy that i ALMOST killed... even if this is true, i found it "weird" that the dialog that he uses could also be used if he somehow survived the fall hehe...

Unlikely, i know, but maybe worth checking out....

i let charise live and did her random encounter. its ivan i'm lacking. . and the part that is killing me is someone else is in the exact same boat i am in with no ivan as well. it claims you dont need ivan, jeff, charise, and clerance in the book. . i'm so confused. i've never been so mind boggled over something. i'm doing activitys with friends again now as we speak. as for shows, do i need to go to a comedy show AND caberet with each of them or does it not matter?

i also cant get jacob to bowl if my life depended on it. same with brucie and playing pool and darts.

To help clear a few things up, according to the Brady guide girlfriends, friendship with Dwayne and random characters with which you get the choice to kill them or not are not part of the 100%. I think though that if you kill the random characters in a mission and miss out on these encounters that way it could hinder the achievement, but that is something the guide doesn't state. Same could be for the friends liking you above 90% achievement, but again, not sure if Dwayne is required for that.

of course:

10 Jacob Drug Delivery

20 Vigilante Missions ( get in cop car and go to view current crimes for these. )

30 Most Wanted Missions ( cop car computer > most wanted. 10 on each island. )

10 Exotic Import Missions ( recieve brucies emails via internet cafe. )

9 Races ( Call Brucie for these. 3 on each island. )

30 Stevie Car Thefts ( Stevie txt's you with want he wants. After each successful mission my advice is to go save/sleep to advance time and get the next txt. you have to save to advance time and get the txt the right way im pretty sure i tested this out. )

9 Assassin Missions ( crosshairs icon on map. )

50 Stunt Jumps

200 Pigeons Found

Meet All Random Characters

Attend all activitys with Little Jacob, Brucie, Packie and beat them at the appropriate ones ( meaning no matter how hard you try jacob wont bowl. brucie wont play pool or shoot darts. dont get hung up on this -_- i did. )

And last but not least which gave me my final 1.25% to kick me to 100%. . . .

Played QU3BED and got the high score achievement.

after being stuck at 98.75% for a day and a half and doing EVERYTHING over about 6 times i can confirm that Dwayne friendship and all of the things the Brady Guide states about it not contributing to 100% are true.

but. . .

NOWHERE in the Brady Games guide does it say you HAVE to get the QUB3D achievement to get 100% completion. if it does please tell me where it is so i can slap myself for wasting a day and half looking for 1.25%.

i finally played QUB3D today, got the achievement, and low and behold the 1.25% i needed for 100% completion was from getting that very achievement.

Be sure to check out post number 71 which is more detailed in the OP or the guide.
http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showpost.php?p=838013&postcount=71

While QUB3D isn't on the 5% activities if you did search the main GTA4 forums, I had made a thread with the topic about being stuck at 98.75% just like you and I did mention QUB3D being required but if the OP could update what post 71 has and break down the 5% activities it would help also.

For the 5% activities it is broken down like this:
Darts vs friend or computer 1.25%
Bowling vs friend in a full game 1.25%
Pool vs friend or computer 1.25%
QUB3D Beat high score 1.25%

As for activities with friends, whatever is listed on the phone is all you can do with them, Packie and Little Jacob has 6, while Brucie has 7.

Is it really necessary to beat them, not just attend them?
I'm on 94.5% at the moment, with flying rats and stunt jumps to do which should take me to 99.5%. I have no clue what the missing 0.5% is :( The only thing I can think of is random characters even tho I have already unlocked the achievement for it. I say this because even after unlocking the achievement, I still managed to find a random character mission but I have no idea who or which one I'm missing...I'll be seriously pissed if I get stuck with 0.5% missing :mad:


Just remembered something, before attending all activities for brucie/packie/jacob, I was on 89.5%. After doing them I then got to what I am on now, 94.5%. So I got my 5% for them even by losing at pool a few times.

I'm on 94.5% at the moment, with flying rats and stunt jumps to do which should take me to 99.5%. I have no clue what the missing 0.5% is :( The only thing I can think of is random characters even tho I have already unlocked the achievement for it. I say this because even after unlocking the achievement, I still managed to find a random character mission but I have no idea who or which one I'm missing...I'll be seriously pissed if I get stuck with 0.5% missing :mad:


Just remembered something, before attending all activities for brucie/packie/jacob, I was on 89.5%. After doing them I then got to what I am on now, 94.5%. So I got my 5% for them even by losing at pool a few times.

i think you gotta win. book says you do. i beat them all first game at darts/bowling/pool to be sure. 10 frames of bowling too with them not just 5. get the qub3d achievement as well if you havent gotten it yet. make sure you met all of your random people.

Be sure to check out post number 71 which is more detailed in the OP or the guide.
http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showpost.php?p=838013&postcount=71 (http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showpost.php?p=838013&postcount=71)

While QUB3D isn't on the 5% activities if you did search the main GTA4 forums, I had made a thread with the topic about being stuck at 98.75% just like you and I did mention QUB3D being required but if the OP could update what post 71 has and break down the 5% activities it would help also.

For the 5% activities it is broken down like this:
Darts vs friend or computer 1.25%
Bowling vs friend in a full game 1.25%
Pool vs friend or computer 1.25%
QUB3D Beat high score 1.25%

As for activities with friends, whatever is listed on the phone is all you can do with them, Packie and Little Jacob has 6, while Brucie has 7.

Dude you rock. I updated my post giving you credit for the % breakdowns. Sending PM now for somebody to update the top post aready.

Actually the pigeons aren't that hard (ive been researching). I located a map online and their all listed and they do not move that area. Locating all 200 will be equal to locating the 300 hidden orbs in crackdown. A challenge but by no means impossible.

Unfortunately you can't jump 30ft in the air to reach the diseased sky rats if any, that are on tops of buildings.

NOWHERE in the Brady Games guide does it say you HAVE to get the QUB3D achievement to get 100% completion. if it does please tell me where it is so i can slap myself for wasting a day and half looking for 1.25%.
Nope, is not stated anywhere. The guide is great when it comes to the story missions, pigeons and unique stunt jumps, but for the rest I found it to be far from complete.

I've just found the missing 0.5%, like I thought it was a missing random character. It was Eddie Low part 2, the guide says he shows up between 10pm and 4am, I had looked for him a few times before but never met him until just now. He showed up at around 2am.

Havocks I wouldn't be surprised if yours is a missing random character too. The problem is some of them appear at specific times I think, so just keep going round their locations looking for them.

Alright, I might be wrong, but I believe that you need only play your friends at each activity to get the 1.66% for each of the 3 friends. I say this because I am godawful at pool and the only two wins I've got are from both Roman and Packie sinking the 8 Ball in prematurely and giving me the game by default. I played Little Jacob at pool, twice even, and lost both times but his 1.66% still unlocked after I finished up taking him to the show and strip club.

You do need to win at pool at least once for the "win at all activities" percentage though. That is independent from the 1.66% for each friend and includes pool, darts, bowling and qubed.

Also, I believe you might also only need to meet all the random characters once, not beat all their missions. I say this because I was stuck at 88% while waiting for Jeff's third mission/encounter, I got the call and went to pick him up, and then he got hit by a car. I was confused if this was part of the mission or if I had messed it up, so I tried driving around the block and it finally saved after a good minute or so. I noticed that the percentage didn't move at all after the save, in my stats. At this point I was also missing two out of the 20something listed in the thread too. I did the math though, and it had already been added to my percentage a while before I even started Jeff's third mission.

88% + 2% for Stevie's Cars + 1.66% x 3 for taking each of the 3 friends out to all activities + 5% for the pigeons and stunt ramps = 100%.

I focused on the story only so that I could get Liberty City Minute and ignored all my friends and sidemissions in the process and was able to pick it right back up towards the end. As far as I know, even the decisions you make in the story will not negatively impact your chances to get 100%.

Okay, so right now I only have Stuntjumps and Pidgeons left plus Brucies races. ( i used to have Jacob on over 90% but now he's under, should that matter? ) I still only have 86.5 % . I'm getting worried here, any ideas?

Could anybody help me? :(

05-05-2008, 11:40 PM
I can see this being a pain in the arse now. Completed everything apart from Stunts and Pigeons, says 90%?? I am pretty sure I have done the random chars side missions now, checked the list 3 times now, and I have definately done the activities (as listed). They're the only 2 possibles now given that there's 5% for the pigeons & stunts.

I've done everything:

- All Story missions
- Bruce's 10 cars
- Steves 30 cars
- Jakob's 10 deliveries
- 10 Assassinations
- 30 Most Wanted
- 20 Criminals
- have 5 friends all with the abilities unlocked
- Found 13 random characters and completed their missions (or multi-missions)

This includes the miscellaneous things like taking them to strip clubs and shows. I personally did not have to beat them at all the games to get the percentage, which is a good thing since I'm terrible at pool.

Friends - 10%
Open all unique abilities and complete all activities

What friends. In my phonebook I have Brucie, Little Jacob and Packie with activities (such ass bowling, pool etc). Kate does not have any specified activities. Does she count? Will you get all 10 % when finished, or do you get some ass you progress (like story %). I have done some with all, but not all. Is there only three friends to do activities with? I did not do all with Roman or Dwayne before they died.

Activities - 5%
Beat computer or Friend at all activities once:
Darts vs friend or computer win - 1.25% - UNSURE
Bowling vs friend in a FULL round win - 1.25% - UNSURE
Pool vs friend or computer win - 1.25% - UNSURE
QUB3D beat high score - 1.25% - DONE

Random Characters - 5%
NOT STARTED

Most Wanted - 2.5%
Kill all 30 PEDs on list - Are these the same as the Manhunt achievement? - Taken down 10 in the last island.

Vigilante - 2.5%
Complete 20 crimes: Are these the same as in Stats- Crimes? In that case I have 169 or something.

Flying Rats - 2.5%
Find all 200 pigeons - NOT STARTED

Unique Stunt Jumps - 2.5%
Complete all 50 jumps - NOT STARTED (but found one - but did not get it approved)

best advice i have for you guys with odd %'s and such is to do EVERYTHING you are supposed to ( races, assassin missions, car thefts, pigeons, etc. . ) get it ALL done to the best of your ability BEFORE you worry about what % you will end up with.

then retrace your steps. easier this way because you know for sure you have car thefts/exotics, pigeons, stunt jumps, police missions done for sure because they are tracked in your stats. knock those out. the most you'd have to do after that is make sure you met all your random encounters ( some people have more than one and i think one encounter only happens during certain hours. ), do all your activitys with friends, and beat QUB3D high score for 1.25%.

Kvalen
05-06-2008, 09:38 PM
Do you have to win in pool againt a friend? Or can it be a girlfriend? I beat one of the girls, and the stats shows 1 win in pool. Is that good enough for the activities for pool (1,25 %)?

When playing friends for the "Friends 10 %" you do not have to win, right?

20+ hour game, but anyway i dont think the numbers above are correct regardless of what the guide says.. theres 94 missions for a start, and no way u get 68% completion for doing them, i was on about 65% but thats including part of the 10% for friends

i've only got these 4 left to do and i'm only 77% + theres no % for the street races or package delivery (unless they are counting them as the story missions)

Car Thefts
Deliver all 30 vehicles to the garage
2%

Most Wanted
Kill all 30 PEDs on list
2.5%

Flying Rats
Find all 200 pigeons
2.5%

Unique Stunt Jumps
Complete all 50 jumps
2.5%

Total = 86.5% would be missing 13.5%


I see what you are saying but the problem is that the percentages that you have may be wrong cause the stunt jumps are worh more as 19 jumps =2.5% or it only did for me so ill let you figure it out but id say youve calculated the %'s wrong.

They're different, for example, I never had to option to take Little Jacob bowling and Brucie is the only one I could go boating or on a helicopter ride with.


I personally did not have to beat them at pool/bowling/darts after the first time for the separate "win at all activities" 5% that includes Qubed. I only had play them at each game to get the 1.66% for each friend, but I haven't seen it confirmed by anyone else. How about you try just playing them so you can corroborate my suspicion?

You only need to do one of those two to fulfill that portion of the required activities.. There are two different comedians at the comedy club so I did that once with Brucie and Packie and with Little Jacob I went to the cabaret.
