GTA 3 Bomb Da Base & Other Tricky Missions

[ijob]

Hi there,

Not sure if this is the correct place but.........

Having big problems with Bomb Da Base Act 2 level.

Basically, the sniper controls are very slow and dont move quick enough to hit the targets in time, has anyone got any tips on how to do it?

I had the same problem with this mission, but mentioned to pass it by shooting of the top of the building. At this building you are closer to the ship and you have a beter overview.
You can get on top of this building using the stairs in front of the ship.

I hope this helps for you!

Dont stand on the roof (2nd floor), stand on the flat part when you are going up the stairs (1st floor), that way you take out the 2 guys at the bottom and then you are level with the rest of the bad guys and all you have to do is only move your scope left to right and shoot, this helps you from having to waste time looking up and down.


I literally tried EVERYTHING just now. If you park on top of 8 Ball he respawns when you look away. Tried going in guns/flamethrower blazing with 100 armor, still died.

I found that not bothering with a sniper rifle and simply storming the ship with an uzi was much easier. Haven't done it on my Sensation because that is way too laggy (any help fixing that is appreciated, but I guess this isn't the right topic for that), but it seemed to work very well on my brothers 4S.

hi,

i just did it on my iphone. here it is how i did


When you go into the shipyard and drop off 8-ball, the mission is "on hold" until you fire a shot (or get too close to the ship). So just head back the way you came to the entrance of the shipyard. Off to the side, there are a number of crew trailers. In the center of them, you can grab a pill to slow time. Pick it up and sprint along the side of the big blue warehouse (don't worry, the guards can't see you from that distance). At the opposite corner of the warehouse, there is a staircase you can climb up and around to the roof. Sprint up to the top, ready a sniper rifle, and take out the dozen guards from left to right to give 8-ball a clear path. He is unarmed, so you need to eliminate them in that order. You should have enough "bullet time" to easily take out all of the guards even if a few shots miss.

Been waiting for controls to be available for the phonejoy before i re-attempted but reckon i might not need to anymore!
