champu 1 #1 February 4, 2005 I know we all know you can get the rig on top of the building in Los Santos and steal planes from the airport from the moment you start the game, but I've discovered something else. As you go on in the game you improve your flying skill statistic, and that carries over into better tracking and quicker draw on your rig. I made this video to give you an idea of just how many exits there are in this game as you unlock new areas and get better at flying. GTA B.A.S.E. (32MB*) *it's on a university host so it should download pretty quick. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GTAVercetti 0 #7 February 4, 2005 Dude, that is a sweet video. I love the classic "guy standing on cliff as the camera pans around" shot. Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
champu 1 #8 February 4, 2005 QuoteNice video! Watch out for those power lines. Yes, most of physics involved with BASE in this game are pretty reasonable, however there are a few exceptions, all of which are demonstrated here... - power lines aren't real - you surge forward a lot on opening - if you rub your end cells against a building it won't muck up your canopy - if you exit a vehicle in forward flight (be it a helicopter, a jet, a motorcycle you just drove off a cliff, whatever) you don't keep moving forward with it, you stop and fall like a stone. /eta: oh yeah, and there's a reset button Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

indyz 1 #22 February 4, 2005 QuoteCheck this short video out guys. Anybody know if you can fly the warbird? I've made it to the airport in the second area (Los Santos?), I have my pilot's license, but most of the aircraft are locked, including the tailgate and the twin. Am I just not far enough in the game? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
