Random Question About a Mission

[GTAnoob]

I was wondering how people went about beating this mission, after many tries without being able to beat him with the car, I eventually just got out of my car when the race started and popped one of his tires. I found that it worked alright, only took a few tries to get it before her was over the hill, and it was a guaranteed win.

I finished the game without popping his tires, it's all about how well you know Vice City. I also do the P.I.T. move on him and it works. There's lot's of ways to get him off the road, but the P.I.T. move is far more effective when racing against him.

TM's strategy is pretty close to my own, I also tried to run him into ped traffic when I had the chance.

I did that mission by outspeeding him and ramming him from the side into walls ect...It`s an pretty effective method,another way is to change the handling of the Sentinel.This topic should be in Gameplay & Help.

Yeah, i did the mission by just, being a better racer. Usually i would adopt dirty tactics, but i didn't find it all that challenging. I'm close to that mission on my Replay of VC right now, might just have to post back in here when i get to it.

Oh, and... I'll move this.

i also finished the game without popping his tires and without doing P.I.T

Ramming him into the water viva la Mafia (or at least how I play Mafia) FTW.

[Dirty Harry]

I suck in races and such, so my stategy was:

-Pop out one of his tires.

-Advance him in the race.

-Steal cars and make a blockade.

This is a guaranteed win.... if you have patience. It's also good if you plan stealing his car.

I beated him fair and square but I'll destroy his car next time

i nail hilary's ass and get his car to the garage...MISSION FAILED!

i nail hilary by crashing him into the water...MISSION FAILED!

i kick hilary's car ass with my sentinel and let him go into the carpark near collar and cuffs and then i go out and shoot his tires and make his way to the multistory carpark :lol: MISSION PASSED! $3000

The P.I.T. technique can be used around places and places. So here's a few that could possibly help out:

• Usually, the first way of preforming this technique is to get near towards the quadrant of the car. That way, getting on the left or right side of the car is the only way possible to start the technique, it usually works, but it only spares you a few seconds to get ahead of him.
  
• The second way could be also using the P.I.T. at corners when Hilary turns. Basically, get close to him like before, but whenever he's about the turn, immediately do the technique and he will be spinning, and he will brake, which would give you extra time.
  
• The third is more harder to achieve, but depending on where the place you want this to be, try doing this mission over again. Basically, if their is any space for you, do the P.I.T. technique and if there's any space where Hilary bumps in, he will try to get back on the track, but if there are any objects that are completely solid and can't move (The Carpark is probably the most effective for this) your chances are that you can win this race without a problem.
  
• Another way is you can pop the tires, although it's not the best possible way to, it works and can slow Hilary down. Just make sure not to hit around the windows or he could get shot in the head, and that would end the mission
  
• You can use the P.I.T. technique at the start of the race, as that is effective and can work as well, but that doesn't make stop Hilary, he'll be back on the track, and he will catch-up eventually.
  

Those are probably some ways that it can work, and it's very effective which means you can definitely win a race. Ivan, if you destroy his car, it's mission fail, I would, but I don't really think it's right to.

I think his car is Bulletproof,correct me if I`m wrong.

[Urbanoutlaw]

Good question, never tried because you're recruiting him & he can't work for you if he's dead.

Hillary's dead = MISSION FAILED.

Hillary's dead = MISSION FAILED.

Hillary's dead = MISSION FAILED = Restart mission.

I hate Hillary, the way he gets cops on to you when driving past the damn police station. I hate that. It's so shit

[Urbanoutlaw]

Lost count of how many times I shot him myself on the bank robbery.

[NSanityHD]

Urbanoutlaw, you shot him? You murderer!

[Urbanoutlaw]

I think I parked a car on him, too.

[hunter88888]

And in the end he doesn't do shit for you!

I hate that!

[Ivan]

Tommy's a better driver he shouldn't need Hillary who only does crap.

[hunter88888]

It's Bullcrap, that's what it is!

True enough i changed the sentinel's handling and it works perfectly indeed!

[Mendoza]

at first i had to shoot him and crash him and to also make sure the cops hit him not you lmao but i mainly just outrace him

[Rashon.]

I got the glitch where Hilary could fall through the unloaded texture and plummet into... well... who knows who? I saw him with my own eyes falling with his Sabre Turbo through the bridge in Washington Beach leading to Screw This. It was the only reason I won and it was a rare time where I actually was impressed by my crappy computer.

Not in my installation he wasn't. BTW, the way that I beat him is I went into the handling.cfg file and changed the Sabre Turbo's top speed down to a crawl. It was so slow, I could walk Tommy past the car. So slow in fact that once I sniped Hillary through the windshield and got in to take it back to a garage, it moved faster in reverse than it did going forward. Huh, what about that?

[Rich-D]

I just raced it like normal. No P.I.T, no shooting out tires. I have played Vice City for years, so I know it pretty well.
