NIX 0 Posted March 25, 2002 Hello, I just bought the game and am having trouble. I started up the first single play mission, played it a few times and finally got to the car but died driving. I decided to get online for patchs, mods etc, so I downloaded v1.30 without the add ons. I fired up the game again and played the same single player mission but now there is no car to be found. I follow the curser and stand exactly where it says the car should be and there is nothing!! Now, am I missing something here or what? I have restarted the game and the same result occurs. Is the car not where the cursor says, or do I need to reload the patch? Any help is greatly appreciated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ralphwiggum 6 Posted March 25, 2002 the box shaped cursor does not tell anything about where the car is. it's just there so that you know it's somewhere in the town. the town(La Trinite i Malden island) is quite big, so b careful! the car is somewhere in the town for sure. good luck p.s. a good number of ppl use 1.46 these days. might i sugest that you upgrade? also get the official weapons upgrade. they have good weapons!

NIX 0 Posted March 25, 2002 Update-I tried again 3 times since my post and the car was there once. Is there a time limit before the car arrives or leaves? Maybe I take too long or when I rush to the spot to see if its there it hasn't arrived yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NIX 0 Posted March 25, 2002 Hey Ralph, thanks for the help. I assumed the car would be in the same place each time. If it is in random locations then that is too cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ralphwiggum 6 Posted March 25, 2002 no..no time limit...although in cadet mode(which you are in) you should be able to finish it with in 20 minutes if you r mew to the mission. car is always there, waiting for you to take it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Random 0 Posted March 26, 2002 I always point the car at my CO when I drive to the town. Then when the cutscene starts he gets mowed down by a runaway jeep. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LauryThorn 0 Posted March 26, 2002 Oh man, if you are talking about the "Steal the car" mission, then it has changed a lot since I played it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NIX 0 Posted March 26, 2002 I'm sure everyone will rest easier knowing that I finally figured it out. After trying the next mission a few times it looks like I have a long way to go before I finish it. I think I died in the first 30 seconds about 10 times. Then, because I'm using a P2 with 64 RAM it takes forever to reload. Not good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
