tyler Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 while i was in shoreside vale, i explored the airport. i tried getting into the planes but i couldnt. i think R* wasnt lying about no flight. i am not sure though becausei got there using a cheat and there were no helicopters there. it might be possible that helicopters are flyable after you beat a certain mission. i think this because they show helicopters in the game and they look 100% flyable. as far as i know you cant fly in LCS but i wont know for sure till i beat the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 There's refrences to a "Dodo" and a "Helicopter" in the .gxt file, implying these are vehicles which you can get into for their name to show up. But yeah if Rockstar said themselves that there's no flying it's unlikely they were lying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris82 Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 How bout looking in the SCM file and looking for any Maverick spawns. Maybe you get one at your mansion after 100%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akuma Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Or maybe someone says Helicopter in the game............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyler Posted October 27, 2005 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 i was thinking after a certain mission a helicopter will apear, cuase the choppers in the cutscenes look 100% flyable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris82 Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 ...There's refrences to a "Dodo" and a "Helicopter" in the .gxt file... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's why I asked him to look at the SCM, because yes, those are both parts of missions. The Dodo in the gxt is a subtitle for a cutscene where Salvatore says "Dodo, Dildo." (Reference to the VC studio mission) But there are several missions where people fly helicopters. (Yes, they do look 100% flyable) So "Helicopter" in the gxt is part of a mission instruction. I think flight is there, because GameInformer said "Players will be able to finally drive motorcycles and helicopters in Liberty City..." [Offtopic-sortof]The bad news is, there are Custom Soundtracks, but apparently, it was a last minute feature R* threw in that didn't work right, as in the Pause menu, it says Custom Soundtracks are "Unavailable" so Rockstar is working on a downloadable patch to fix this. I also have a hunch that this is what caused the European delay. I can also confirm there is no skinning and no saving pictures with a camera to the memory stick. (A camera is in the game though) I hope the patch will also allow both of these because I feel they are missing. Finally, outfits are great. I have just reached Shoreside Vale and there are 9 outfits so far.[/offtopic] All in all, I still think Rockstar has included flight in the game.

tommy vercetti guy Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 No because draw distance on the PSP is so bad, If you fly anything itll be like flying through fog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris82 Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 Yeah, that draw distance is bad <{POST_SNAPBACK}> How is it bad? From the Stuanton Docks, you can see almost all of Portland. The Draw Distance in LCS is as good, if not better, than San Andreas PS2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyler Posted October 30, 2005 Author Share Posted October 30, 2005 you can fly helicopters Quote From GTAPortable.com It seems that helicopters in Liberty City Stories are flyable after all! Well.... sorta. In the mission "Calm Before the Storm" for JD you can apperantly jack a helicopter on a rooftop. gmrxbox made a video to show that this one is for real! He also was kind enough to share a technique on doing this: On the mission where you follow Massimo on a tip from JD(he has a helicopter that you drive under and you cant lose him), follow him until the second stop. (When you climb up the building to find him.) Use a motorcycle to climb up the steps and reach the top. You will pass through the yellow marker and can go get the helicopter. Happy flying!! Download Video: Click here! so this is pretty cool, to bad i already done the mission. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> im starting to think the video isnt true cuase the screen is blurrier than hell, and you cant hear at all, but it could be real Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Equinox Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 (edited) Since thats a psp, it cant be a mod, and must be true...I dont see how you could prove it anymore. And the screen isnt that blury...I believe it, and im gonna test it. Edited October 31, 2005 by Aquador Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris82 Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 It is true. If you drive a Sanchez up the stairs on the mission "Calm Before the Storm," then you could fly a helicopter, if only 100ft away or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaz The Great Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Since thats a psp, it cant be a mod, and must be true...I dont see how you could prove it anymore. And the screen isnt that blury...I believe it, and im gonna test it. You are gullible if you actually believe that can't be faked. It's easy to fake ANY type of video. Especially considering the PSP PLAYS VIDEOS. Hmmmm.... Wow, amazing concept, eh? So yeah, I'll check it out when I get to that mission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
