mguida Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Im not looking forwar to doing the pigeons, but thats my last thing for 100%. How long did it take you to shoot all 200 pigeons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooMuchCowbell Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Honestly, I thought it was going to be hell. I was dreading it so much, I put it off for weeks. Finally got 100% though. It took me 2 days to get them, about 3-4 hours each day. Just use the IGN guide, makes things helluva lot easier. After that, I still had to do each activity with each friend which was kinda anti-climactic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChipSpudskin Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I was dreading doing this too. I used the map from the GTA IV guide on this site and checked the videos when I couldn't find it. I did them 50 at a time. I think it took about 5 hours in total. One thing you should definitely do is make a checklist and make sure you save....I can't remember whether auto-save kicks in when you kill a pigeon, I don't think it does?

BigFellaJake Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 autosave doesnt save when you kill a pigeon, otherwise it would be easier. you have to go back to your safehouse to save Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
androsmere Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I spread it out over a couple weeks. I found it so boring I could only do 10 or 20 at a time. I just kept notes on which number to resume with. I used the GamesRadar guide which has maps, pictures, and video of each pigeon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figgsy91 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I did it over 3 days, and become part of the 199 Pigeon club, so I had to start the game from scratch! > Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jorGe62990 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I did one island a day and got it done in 3 days. I used the Brady guide which is probably the best one you can use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiftyK42 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Use 007craft's videos in YouTube by just searching GTA pigeon and you will see pigeon guide videos in 50s. They are best ones because it gives you idea of where you need to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spotshadow Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Second the usage of 007's vids and the maps that go along with it. Pigeons are way more annoying than the packages were. Because everytime you fire off your gun you risk getting a wanted level. Given your situation this can go up to two stars if you get ambused arrested by foot patrols. Not a problem but defintely annoying. Save often, never know when one stupid pigeon somehow becomes a three star race or a cheap arrest. For me, arrest was never an option, blowing the money on weapons and ammo, the miser in me couldn't do. The 10K cost for death doesn't help either.

jason86586 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 ive been spreading it out a few weeks. I am nearly done and have about 20 pigeons left in algonquin until my 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KemicalSupreme Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I tried to do 10 - 20 pigeons a day. HOnestly took me a few weeks. Was nice because you get to see spots of the city you normally dont see in the course of missions. I would say 8 hours due to the running around the huge map. You dont realize the map is so big until you look at these buggers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IXI Icetray IXI Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 If you have videos or an interactive map it is fairly easy to find them providing you use the helicoptor cheat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PureTechniquex Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 about 6-7 hours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason86586 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 also the time taken depends on your stealthiness. If you get a wanted level after every pigeon then its going to take you a lot longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khri360 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 it took me like around 2 hrs i could of done it less time but i got stuck in a bird(don't remember which 1) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Tim Johnson Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 it took me like around 2 hrs i could of done it less time but i got stuck in a bird(don't remember which 1) Lol, I think you must be talking about the 50 seagulls. Because I don't see any way that someone could kill 200 pigeons in 2 hours. That's more than 1 a minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neok182 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 around 15-20 hours. almost missed the key to the city contest because of the damn pigeons. Also used the remove wanted level and full health cheats probably 150-180 times during the hunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
II RUFF II Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 About 10 hours at least but a fair few kept me back as some were hard to find or difficult to find a good shooting range but glad i didnt miss any out or had 1 left like some other people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
