Vice City Stories Odd Jobs


Recommended Posts

Liberty City Stories had some new odd jobs that other GTA games lacked which were Bike Salesman, Car Salesman, Slash TV, Avenging Angels and Trash Dash. I for one liked all of the new odd job additions and I hope that all of them return in some way in VCS along with some new ones. The Bike and Cars Salesman odd jobs could return at Sunshine Autos, Slash TV could return with another name and be located in another type of area. Avenging Angels could return in some way or it could be a totally different gang trying to help out the streets. Last but not least, the Trash Dash missions will most likely make a return in VCS and I think that "Vice City Scrap" will have an involvement with the mission...to make it more elaborate(how ever you spell that). I also think there could be more odd job mission in VC that werent in LCS. These are the ones I was thinking about.

-"Terminal Baggage"- This mission is some what self explainitory, in this odd job you'll have to collect bags and suit cases and transport them to the entrance of the airport in a certain amount of time.

-"Fishy Memories"- In this mission you'll have to fish for a company by going out to the spots recommended and fish for none other then...fish. This would be worked out in some way that would be more interesting then fishing in real life.

-Deep Sea Diving- Couldnt really think of a good name but in this mission you would get in a wet suit and swim into caves looking for treasure and shit...maybe look for treasure in certain sunken ships :whistle:

What ideas do you have?

Official Vice City Stories Minigames

-A brand new golfing mini game will be playable at Leaf Links. Controls are simple and only require one button, tapping it starts the power meter, pressing again to stop it when you reach the amount of power you require, and then once more to set the accuracy of your shot. Revisiting Leaf Links will enable you to retry the minigame and beat your previous score. One mission requires you to beat Gonzalez at the game.

-Empire Building: This is actually quite an advanced feature in the game. After taking over a site, the gang that previously occupied it becomes your rival. There will be six different business types that Vic can run, the article mentions three - protection, extortion and prostitution. The three others are currently unknown.

You are able to choose what type of business to set up at the site you acquire. Your choice will have an impact on the business' level of success. A smuggling business will perform better near an airport or docks for instance.

-Businesses are split into three categories - low, middle and high. Each of these will require a larger amount of money to acquire staff and resources. Similar to your gang control in San Andreas, your businesses will be prone to attacks from rival gangs.

-Notification about attacks on your businesses comes through on your pager. The more staff you have the better their chance of defending it for you if it comes under attack.

You'll have the option to save the game at any of your businesses, this means there will be more than 30 possible safe houses across the city.

-The employees of your businesses can be recruited San Andreas style to provide protection and support to you on the streets.

-Pedestrians on the street may comment on your success - Rockstar say it's all about having the people of Vice City recognise your power and control.

These seem really cool and the idea of Empire Building is basically what GTA Real Estate is all about.

How about putting the camera to good use and getting an odd job as a news photographer. Just got this idea when my little brother was watching Spiderman and Peter works for the Daily Bugle and he's the photgrapher. So you would get the camera and have to get to a certain location and take pictures of something happening like Alex Shrub cheating on his wife (he probably did it before Vice City too) or some other gossip lol. I also got this idea from the mission in Vice City, I can't remember what it's called but the one where you have to follow Candy Suxxx and take pictures of her and Alex Shrub/Martha meeting together.
