Stoppie Distance (Stoppie for 305 metres)

This is the reverse of Wheelie. Instead you want to break and press forward on the right-stick. Working on this at the airport along with the Wheelie Challenge is a good move. You can get this done in a few runs down the Airport runway.

 

Shouldn't it be left-stick?

Any hope for me to get the 50 luchadore specialists besides waiting for survivals? Got 100% city take over so they aren't any around.

Start the Mayhem activity in one of the areas they used to own. When you got about 3 stars exit the activity and start killing them.

dont think but its been said, but the other thing that helps aside from a fast car and nitrous for car torpedo is cruise control!! turn in on, jump out, your car just goes off into the distance, couple times i couldnt actualy find it again, was gettin me like 700/800% a time :)

also for big air, i didnt have the bridges up, but i found if you drive a motorbike into and up to the saints hq, then simply drive it off the helipad, gets you about 70-90 metres every time (as long as you stay on!)

Some of the harder activities are kind of obnoxious. Assuming you can get it down to one activity left, by saving your one-use "City Takeover" bonus until near the end of your game, you can just use it on any of the areas and get any achievements related to those activities, then reload your game. Helpful if you've decided you're not going to get the full 1000 but still would like to get as many points as possible anyway.

Damn...are there any tips for the basejumping? I've just destroyed a 3 day old controller and smashed up the screen of a 5 month old £500 Samsung TV (srs) as it pissed me off so much.

 

I've tried the tip mentioned in the OP but never land anywhere near the target, just so bloody awkward.

Always stay behind the designated target (backwards with :ls:) until you're almost ground-level. When you're about to land, move forward with the :ls: and land in the center.

 

It's really not that hard at all. Seeing as how you don't even have to land in the direct center of the target and it will still give you credit to the small amount of basejumps you are required to do; 15.

I got Big Air done by just driving a boat against the waves by that long bridge between the first island where Shaundi gives you the first crib and the huge tower.

 

I also followed the Store Robbery guide (buying Planet Saints near Rondini's Dock) but in between store robberies I kept running in and out killing the 6 mascots outside (5 out front, 1 round the side) and occasionally seeing 1 or 2 more mascots cowering INSIDE Planet Saints to kill.

 

Quick questions though, had the game since release day but haven't really played much until this week so since November, I've only completed two missions (so not very far).

 

* Where do I find a helipad with a helicopter I can use? I bought the airport as well as the hangar and haven't seen a single helicopter yet.

 

* I've completed almost half the Challenges but it still shows only 30. Do the rest (such as Specialist kills, shortcuts found etc) unlock as I progress through the game?

As you progress through the campaign, you will unlock hideouts which you can use to save your game, gather some ammunition, change your outfit, etc. Some of these hideouts are very large and have helipads on the highest level of the building.

Yes. Not only will more challenges be unlocked, but as will Assassination contracts and vehicle theft missions.

Thanks man.

 

Also, I have to say, it's a lot easier to change clothes, weapons etc in this one now instead of the previous games where you had to run all over the crib interacting with different things.

 

Just a shame the radio stations or your mixtape don't play inside the crib unless that happens later on.

ive completed game and 40/41 challenges, all hi jacks and assassiantions etc. i have 6/26 survivals done.. do i just stand and wait for each one?

 

Seemed like when I stood around for 2 or 3 minutes without doing anything, and not being in a vehicle, I would get a survival call. So I would just let your guy stand on the street for a couple of minutes and you should get a call. I did all of mine during the main story tho, not sue exactly how it works after you finish that part.
