The other advantage is that the boss will still try to make a run for it but unfortunately for him you’re now in the way between him and his getaway car. This may also be a good way to pick up some dropped cash which you may have overlooked earlier. Well, then you get the scene shown above… the first advantage is that you won’t get any more enemy encounters in the slaughterhouse itself, which makes things a bit easier. what would happen if I were to retrace my steps back to the entrance? 😉 So when I played this mission again I started to wonder…. The only problem is that the boss will flee the scene so when you’re done here you’ll have to hop in your car and chase him down, during which you’ll also get chased by some more henchmen coming after you. You can simply continue your way and kill the rest of the enemies that are between you and the gang boss. Once you’ve cleared the area around the safe (I suggest taking out the enemy directly around the corner too) you’re all set to go.Īfter you cracked the safe you’re tasked to take out the gangs leader and well… this is a classic example of R* giving us an actually fun and good mission! See, there are 2 ways to finish it: smart and stealthy or using a more direct approach. In this mission however there are no assaulting enemies. Once you’ve entered the slaughter house Gerald tells you to head to the safe so that you can steal some of the Chinese recipes.įortunately for us R* seems to have learned from the experiences in “Stocks and Scares” where you need to invade the Merryweather compound and crack their safe… problem being: while doing that Merryweather continues their assault which makes that mission difficult to complete if you’re alone (but not impossible! The trick is to use smoke grenades and place some proximity mines). In fact, Gerald directs us to the Raven slaughterhouse which is the exact same location where they held Michael in Story mode (and where Franklin eventually saved him)!Įach to their own but I really enjoy small details like this events which help to tie GTAO into the events from Story mode, even if it is just a little bit. In specific we’re going after some of the Triads.
In this mission we’re tasked with taking out some of Geralds competitors. I’m assuming this to be a bug because this mission also pops up twice in my voting screen, even though I’ve successfully finished all the ‘Last Play’ missions at least once. Maybe it’s a bug or maybe by design, but for some reason this is the only contact mission which doesn’t allow you to purchase ammo and armor before the mission. Honestly you guys… some of these missions are plain out awesome I think, but others. So for that reason I’m going to review the missions in order (hopefully the right one) and I’ll stick to what made most sense to me. I like a bit more story telling to be honest. you simply start with a random job from the Last Play series and when you’re done you can vote for the next job.Īnd I think that’s a shame because there actually is a bit of a story here, shallow story for sure but even so… Gerald is now trying to eliminate his opposition before stealing more product from other deals happening in the city and eventually you’ll be tasked with setting up the sale for him.
Although you should play the missions in a certain sequence to get the most out of the story that’s actually not what we get. Once you enter you’ll start the first mission …or so I thought. And just as before you can use the interaction menu if you want to hide it from the map. Just as with Simeon’s repo missions there’s now a huge icon (a big ‘G’) where you’ll find the above corona. Instead we get texted instructions and when you’ve completed the mission then that’s it… you’re done, end of mission, nothing more to see here. For starters there are no cut scenes, no phone calls, nothing which you’d expect in a contact mission. Unfortunately I’m not a huge fan of the new series though (both the ‘repo’ jobs from Simeon and the ‘last play’ series which just got added) because they feel a bit cheap to me. But seriously… back in my PS3 days I managed to get up to 16 million GTA$ just from playing contact missions. With the latest update (time of writing obviously) R* gave us a nice surprise: 6 new contact missions to play! Of course this isn’t the first time they did this, last year got us 8 new repo missions from Simeon and this time they gave Gerald some more attention.Ĭontact missions are an all time favorite of mine although I also play a lot of freeroam these days (those special cargo crates don’t source themselves )).
