Los Santos International Airport (LSX). Go to the gate where the guard says "You need a pilot's license to enter!", park your car near the booth, jump up on it, then on to the guard shack, and hop the fence. You can find a Dodo (full winged) and the Learjet back there.
If you've got a truck, you can park it anywhere along the fence, hop on the cab, then hop on the box, then hop the fence.

I can't believe i haven't noticed this till today:

No load between cities!

In GTA3 and VC anytime you went between a different part fo the city you had the load screen, but now you can go between all 3 cities and not have to wait for it to load!

FUCKING WRONG SIDE OF THE TRACKS MISSION!

I just spent the last few days getting all 100 tags so I could get the weapons/respect. Now I'm finally back to the missions.

I know, its total bullshit. I did that about 7 times before the fucking idiot managed to actually shoot them all (got to stay at the very right edge so the dumbass won't be shooting the train).

Worthless fat fuck can't hit them worth shit, and he's using the most useless gun in the whole game to boot ... I've tried it like 10 times since my last post. It seems to be pure random luck, the most he's ever killed is 3/4.

Can anyone tell me what town was that 24-7 with an AK-47 beside it is located? Where can I find other AKs?

And I just started the game, I just finished the mission where you rescue Sweet and his girlfriend. At this point, can I go to Ammunation? Where can I find the Ammunations?

Can anyone tell me where to find M-4s? Which is better, an M4 or an AK?

I found the easiest way to do that mission is to fly almost straight south, avoiding the no fly zone directly south of your airfield. After that it's pretty flat terrain, then water. Follow the water south right to the edge of teh map, then turn and head towards the checkpoint, staying over the ocean. The point you need to get to is right by the coast, so you can just fly it that way. Hardest part about this route is the trees right by the checkpoint. Return by the same path.

awesome game, but can be very frustrating sometimes 8)
back when i had just left los santos for instance, tenpenny told me to go and kill some guy up on the mountain, so i get a bike go up there, and about halfway up the mountain, a plane comes flying overhead and crashing into the mountain, exploding a few feet away from me. my bike catches fire, i jump off, boom. i'm left with no means of transportation, halfway up the mountain, with a fraction of my health left. after going walking all the way across the mountain trying to find the guy, i go back to angel pinem and find the marker to start the mission....DOH.

right now i'm stuck at zero's second mission, man thats tough. keep running out of fuel.

Yay! Beat the game, 50 hours 71%.

This game was well worth the money and time spent getting it. The only real faults I've found so far are the dissapearing ground effect, small trouble getting out of vehicles when I shouldn't have trouble, small trouble switching targets, and the (imo) annoying track selection for the radio stations.

Hmm, not sure, but I'm guessing it's one of the podunk towns in between Los Santos and San Fierro. As far as other AKs go, there's at least one mission that lets you use one, or you can wait until the Ammunation opens up. I'm sure they spawn somewhere in the city, but I don't know exactly where.
And I just started the game, I just finished the mission where you rescue Sweet and his girlfriend. At this point, can I go to Ammunation? Where can I find the Ammunations?
If it's possible to visit an ammunation, it will be on your map marked with a gun symbol (check your legend to make sure the gun isn't Emmet's place). As soon as the first one opens, you can visit any of them. I'm not sure exactly which mission it is, but at some point, Sweet wants you to get strapped before you blow some fools away, and he directs you to the ammunation.
Can anyone tell me where to find M-4s? Which is better, an M4 or an AK?
Military guys have M4s. Ammunations get them at some point. Personally, I prefer the M4, but it's really a matter of the type of ammo you can get your hands on. Gangsters will carry AKs, while military personnel pack M4s.

Erm, AKs and M4s use the same ammo; you can swap between the two ARs whenever you find the other one. Same with the SMGs, although its not as silly with SMGs ):

Really? That's fucking retarded. Of course, I recently noticed that the 9mm doesn't use the same ammo as the silenced 9mm. :roll: Jesus assfucking Christ on a pogo stick.

Well, technically the regular pistol LOOKS like a 1911. But hey, special pickups for silenced pistol? Wasn't lowering firerate and no dual enough of a game balance for them?

I'm just bothered you can't leave guns places, ie ditch the minigun at your house, go get a launcher, drop it off get the mini back. The heavier weapons are the only ones where these decisions are important (although the silenced is another good one) and there are bugger all spawns for them.

Awesome- I'm past the annoying missions and now I'm fully into the cool, kick-ass missions that just make you go "wow"!

I just did the mission where Sweet goes to that meeting and the cops show up, and you have to save him, then you drive off with the gang. Cool. For those wondering what the hell I've been doing all this time, the answer is getting all the tags and taking part in gangwars. I have an obscene amount of AK ammo as a result, as well as SMG ammo, and I'm Hitman with the AK (which is all that's required, really). I think I'll try and make myself hitman with every gun I can find, just for completeness sake.

Can't wait to find an M4.

I'm through with all the (first round, at least) Sweet missions. Now I'm slogging through Ryder, Big Smoke, and OG Loc's stuff (well, Cesar too if I ever get around to it). No Ammu-Nation yet. :(

I'm guessing the one who betrays you. The Columbian one. Catalina or whatever.

That's sweet. She's pretty hot.

Hey, wouldn't that be cool? Pitting The Guy vs CJ.
