On the mission where you steal the hydra, destroy all but the one that your gonna fly because the military guys fly those after you and its much easier without opposing hydras attacking you.

The three places I know of where you can get a Patriot:
1) The military base. Theres a breakable section on the south east corner of the outermost perimeter fence NOTE: NOT where the watchtowers are, with a patriot, and APC, a helicopter, 2 tanks & 2 Hydras parked there most of the time,
2) Its available to import at some point from the import/export docks in SF
3) Theres a military area on the eastern side of SF called Easter Basin. Its east of Downtown, and theres an entrance to the north east, from the road.

Hope this helps!

The person was looking for it for the import/export mission and it is only there after you import it

re: Help, Hints & Tips Thread

O.K., I'm new to this site so hopefully I'm posting on the right section.

Alright, I'm on "Nine's and AK's" and I'm trying to get that bulletproof car (the Tampa that you're supposed to blow up as part of the mission). I've looked over the internet and have only found two methods of how to do it but neither of them have been fruitful.

One is by using the cheat that blows up all cars, but as we all know, cheating on any of the "GTA" games can *bleep* up your game so that it may not load at some point in the future, so that's out.

The other is by pushing the car, before you're instructed to blow it up, to the garage and then using a forklift to flip it. I did exactly as the guide told me to do but the car won't flip! I've tried doing it by raising the forks all the way, part of the way and hitting the gas (pushing it foward) and against and not against something behind it (a wall or other car). It JUST won't flip! You're supposed to flip it while it's in the garage which will cause it to explode, then when the garage door closes and re-opens on it it's good to go and you can open the doors and drive it around.

Please, can ANYONE help me with this without the use of cheats???

re: Help, Hints & Tips Thread

No one has responded to this request in the PC Forum of this game, so I'm going to repost it here in hopes of getting some help...and it's a real hair-tearing moment (link to other thread; this is pretty much the same post as the other thread).

For the past few weeks, on a follow-up playthrough (which I do for a lot of my video games, especially for the better games, like this one) of this game, I have been absolutely stymied by the mission Cut Throat Business. I swear to god I have failed this mission in just about every way possible in the go-kart section of the mission. I have read through the FAQ's/Guides on Neoseeker for help on this one, yet I haven't found what I need.
One particular guide underestimates the difficulty of the mission, saying that all you have to do is follow him. Unfortunately that is easier said than done because this is the strictest of all the chases in my opinion. It seems to me that the distance allowed between CJ and the target is the shortest out of all the missions in the game; all it takes to fail the mission is one or two screw-ups on your part, or to have Madd Dogg rear-end you. Heck, the game even claims that OG Loc gets away but his vehicle is in plain sight. There should never have been a chase in the go-karts in this game...

I'm in a major need of advice on how to beat this mission; I've even watched this video on YouTube for advice and it didn't help. On a side note I don't think that that is the PC Version of the game because if it was, there were several points in the second part of the chase in which OG Loc could have gotten away; if some of what happened in the video happened on the PC Version, OG Loc gets away.

Honestly, it feels like nothing short of an absolutely perfect run can clear this mission, and I'm already questioning if there is a bug/glitch involved in this because on no other mission have I had this difficulty, and I have NEVER used cheats of any kind on this game--if I did I didn't save the game.
Strange as this may sound, the last time I beat this mission was on that particular file's first attempt at the mission, but I got this message, shutting the game down:

quote
GTA:SA.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for any inconvenience.
If you were in the middle of something, the information that you were working on might be lost.
And since then, I have not been able to beat this mission; again, the mission's name is Cut Throat Business. I have even gone as far as deleting the file that was up to this mission, but apparently that didn't help.
Seriously, this become such a frustration that I might start using the GTA:SA disk case to lay the smackdown on the silverfish that run through my place, and the only reason why I am reiterating this request is that my last request for help on this mission went unanswered.
So that would make this the second request for help with the mission Cut Throat Business, where I'm at the point of "What in *bleep*'s name do I have to do to get past this mission?!?" In other words I'm asking for help on this mission in a very frustrated tone, which is not like me unless I get REALLY frustrated, and I am at the point of being REALLY frustrated...
And if I don't get help here, my next step is going to be sending a PM to a mod who has experience with this game for assistance. Seriously, waiting for some tips on this mission is not cool...

Your game's broken. Try getting it on PS2 or Xbox.
