GTA V: Random Event: Saeeda

Is no one safe?
As Franklin driving to the airport you will see a wine red CRV driving away fast with a woman screaming, "He stole my car!"

If you get the car back in relatively one piece she will say thank you and that her name is Saeeda. Not much other than that. 

GTA V: Strangers and Freaks: Assuming The Truth

Driving Way up north as Michael, you will be told you are now Zolag and need to prove yourself by stealing some cars.  Yep, that makes perfect sense.

Here are the car locations;

-Pegassi Vacca

-Benefactor Surano



GTA V: Vehicles: Dinka Double-T

Dinka Double-T

The Dinka Double-T is at the lifeinvader HQ parking lot. 

GTA V: Vehicles: Enus Super Diamond

Enus Super Diamond
The Enus Super Diamond is in a back lot behind some buildings. 

GTA V: Vehicles: Declasse Tornado

Declasse Tornado
This one is hard to find but not impossible. It is at the parking lot of the Japanese auto tuner shop

GTA V: Vehicles: Pegassi Vacca

Pegassi Vacca
If you are looking for this sweet ride, it is just south of Franklin's new place. 

GTA V: Vehicles: Benefactor Surano

Benefactor Surano
If you are looking for this car, it can be up north in the middle of the land surrounded by the lake or it could be right next door to where you would like to to be on the map. 

GTA V: Random Event: Prisoner Lift 1

He was just going for a walk is all. 

As Franklin, driving north, you will come across a guy needing a lift. There will be a broken police car nearby with a dead cop inside. If you give him a ride, you will soon have some cops you will need to lose.

After you are free again, he will tell you he is a member of the Lost. You can then drop him off at their new hideout just south of the race track.

GTA V: Random Event: Zombie

The undead are among us, and they don't have a law degree
Walking around Vinewood as Trevor, you can see lots of street stars on the sidewalk. As you are star gazing, you my come across an actor zombie who makes money by dressing up as the undead. He is not all that happy. 

GTA V: Stock Locations: Post Op

Sometimes Their competitor's trucks are there as well.
Post Op is a postal delivery company. Their main competitor is Go Postal. Their delivery office is located on the Elysian Island.

GTA V: Vehicles: Deludamol Van

They just leave these things laying around
If for some reason you need to find a Deludamol Van, here is a spot that it seems to be at. No reason, just in case. 

Thursday, September 26, 2013

GTA V: Stock Locations: Cluckin Bell

A lot of dead chickens want revenge
On way to make money in the stock market is to blow up the competition. If you want Cluckin Bell CLK stock to go down and Taco Bomb TBO to go up. Blow up and create general mayhem at their farm factory. It won't be much but it is will be enough to consider. 

GTA V: Gauntlet Locations

As easy as 1, 2, 3. 
Here is the location of the three Gauntlet getaway cars that you might need for some reason in Grand Theft Auto 5.

First one (middle) is on the 5th (top) floor of a parking garage, the other two are on the street. 

GTA V: Booty Call Girls

There are many contacts you can make in Grand Theft Auto 5. A few help with things, a few give you missions, a few help you with heists, and then there are the few that are just there for a quick hook up.

The easiest ones to have sex with a the street hookers. Just drive around at night and honk your horn near one. They will get in, you go to a discrete location and pay them for what services you want. If you accidentally run them over afterwards, they will just happen to have that amount of money for you to pick up.

The second easiest and more clean are the strippers at the strip club. You can play the touch game when you are getting a lap dance and if you can fill their like meter, at the end of the dance they might ask if you want to go home with them. It seems any one of them will work but only one per guy. The rest won't go home with you it seems after you pick one of the others first.

First Nikki
Second Juliet



Here is a list of the ones found that aren't from the strip club.
Trevor can mess around with Ursula.

GTA V: Bounty Hunter: Curtis Weaver

It's a lifestyle choice!
Curtis is the last bounty given before Maude retires to look for a better life. Curtis is not hard, he has a few friends that start shooting, one might run at your without a weapon but he is just running by. The rest just have pistols. Curtis takes off and you can easily chase him down with a stun gun or pistol to the leg.

On the way back he will give his opinion on life and be as disgusted with Trevor as Trevor is with Michael, Irony at it's most potent.

You will get $10,000 for taking him in alive.

GTA V: Interesting Location: Sunk Cargo Ship

Lots of sharks around here. 
Looks like a cargo ship sunk here. Lots of wreckage.

What is here:
- SMG x2
- Heavy Sniper
- $9000
- Grenade
- Armor
- Sticky Bomb
- 3 submarine parts (after you start submarine mission)

GTA V: Random Events

Grand Theft Auto 5 has many random events throughout the map. Some funny, some profitable, all entertaining. I am honestly not sure if you need to be certain people to get the certain events but I have marked them down as such just in case. Trevor also has a unique issue of looking for hitchhikers that he can then send to the altruist cult for profit instead of their intended destination.

It is quite possible to get these events with different people but these are the ones that I found them with.

Trevor:
RV Sex Interruption
Large White Girl Robbed
Chase Thieves Country 2
Griff the Fat Washington Patriot

Trevor Hitchhikers:
Hitch Lift 3
Crash Rescue (New Heist Driver)
Burial ($60,000)
Hitch Lift 2 (Ursula New Contact)

Michael:
Bad Bikers

Franklin:
Deal Gone Wrong
Rogue Altruists 
Domestic  (New Golf Partner)

GTA V: Bounty Hunter

One of the many side quests you can do in Grand Theft Auto 5 with Trevor is Bounty Hunting. Relativly early in the game when you have unlocked Trevor, you will get a question mark on the map. This will be Maude, she is a large bounty hunter that spends 99% of her time in front of her computer. She will give you bounties for bail jumpers and ask you to find them and return them dead or alive. Alive you will usually get $10,000 which is more than if you bring back a corpse.

Here is the list of bounties;

1) Ralph Ostrowski
2) Larry Tupper
3) Glenn Scoville
4) Curtis Weaver 

GTA V: Random Event: RV Sex Interruption

When the RV is a rock'n, ask for a threesome.
Driving around the windmills as Trevor, you come across an RV (Zirconium Journey, Vans) rockin. As you get closer, two brothers jump out annoyed that you interrupted their private time and start shooting. If you choose to stun them. It takes a few times to get them to stay down. Nothing else much there. 

GTA V: Interesting Location: Crashed Rusted Cargo Plane

Guess it didn't properly make the takeoff.
In the submarine (which I would suggest to use as half of the plane is very deep.) You can find this very old rusty cargo plane. There was an opening with a ladder to the cockpit but I could not get in there but I didn't see anything either. Some of the weapons are partially hidden so I could not confirm which one I picked up.

At this location you will find:
-Armor (in hull)
-$12,500 case (in hull)
-SMG (?)
-Full Health
-Pump Shotgun
-SMG
-Assault Rifle

GTA V: Interesting Location: Underwater Base

What they heck were they making down there?
With all the scum and villany, you should have figured at least one of them would try and make an underwater base. Well it looks like someone tried and failed. There is a large incomplete constructions site, with a large cylinder that you can go inside. There is nothing inside that I could find but there is a lot of other stuff lying around nearby.

What is there:
-MG
-Combat Shotgun
-Grenade
-Health Pack
-$25000 case (near the tube entrance on top)
-Assault Rifle
-Full Armor
-Grenade Laucher

GTA V: Interesting Location: Crashed Passenger Plane

Glad I wasn't on that flight.
This one can probably be found while picking up the nuclear waste as it is not to far from one of them.

Swimming around you can find:
-Grenades (2)
-Grenade Launcher
-SMG
-Combat MG

GTA V: Interesting Location: Crashed Cargo Plane

There are a few bad pilots out there... other than me. 
It helps if you have the submarine as you can just get out of it and directly into some scuba gear but this location has a crashed plane that looks like it has been here a little while.

You can find:
-RPG
-SMG
-$12,000 case 

GTA V: Random Event: Large White Girl Robbed

Won't they ever learn?
As Trevor moving south, a large woman wearing white yells out that she has been robbed at the ATM machine. You see a guy running away with a gun. You run him over and get $500. If you are nice, you give the money back to the woman and end up with only $50. 

GTA V: Random Event: Lost Van Steals From Clothing Store

Those lost guys sure are mean
Driving East as Trevor, you drive up just as a Lost van is driving away after stealing some money. If you persue they will open the rear doors and start shooting. If you kill all 4 of them from the Van and pick up the prize, two bikes with two guys each will come up behind you and try and finish you off. 

GTA V: Random Event: Griff the Fat Washington Patriot

He is just a patriot using his right to complain
Driving West as Trevor, you see a fat guy named Griff dressed as George Washington on the side of the road with a sign saying "This is the land of opportunity, get out!". He is very verbal on is feeling about Mexican and they are not favorable.

You can go up and talk to him if you want. You will ask him about his feelings about Canadians and he will say they are worse than Mexicans as Mexicans at least have the decency to look different than Americans. You can punch his lights out with one uppercut which will make you feel better but not yield any fruit.

GTA V: Random Event: Bad Bikers

Will bikers never learn to play nice?
As Michael you come across 2 bikers holding up a dealer next to a store. They are about to shoot him unless you intervene.

He thanks you and asks you to follow him to his car to the West. As you get to the car 5 bikers on motorcycles come buy and find their dead friends. They start shooting at you even if you are hidden behind the car. Use your bullet time superpower to quickly dispatch them. The dealer will give you $1000 for your troubles and karma.  

GTA V: Random Event: Buy Gone Bad

Was it really worth $25,000?
As Franklin, you come across several wounded and dead bodies in the area. One of the guys next to the car with the horn tells you they took the money over the side. Go down the hill and there is another injured guy saying don't take the case. If you do, you immediately get $25,000 and everyone around you croaks.

After about 30 seconds of driving away, two trucks start shooting at you telling you to give them back the case. Not sure how to do it so I just shot them all and kept my winnings. 

GTA V: Rare Item: Baseball Bat

Everyone needs to have one of these handy
There is a lodge at the south west corner of Paleto Bay which is in the North West corner of the map. The lodge has a large lumberjack mannequin in front of it. Behind the main building, near the garbage bins is the baseball bat. 

GTA V: Strangers and Freaks: Risk Assessment

A dog that Franklin can understand?
About halfway through the game Franklin will come across a golden retiever (dog) that when barks, he can actually understand. The dog will lead him to a him stuck in a tree tangled with his parachute. He will take you up in a helicopter where you will jump ON to the top of Mount Chiliad. After that, you get on some bikes and race down the West side into the forest.

At the end you get Dom the thrill seeker as a contact. 

GTA V: Random Event: Attempted Abduction

Abducting a young girl for her blood? Old naked guys are strange.
As Franklin, driving up near the Great Chaparral, you find 2 old naked guys holding down and attempting to hogtie a young blond girl in a pink outfit. They get angry and pull out guns if you get too close.

You can choose to save her by killing the two guys. She will ask for a ride home as she is freaked out. On the way Franklin and the girl will discuss how the baby boomers have screwed up everything and the millennium generation has to clean it up. It is not their fault they are lazy, it is what they have grown up to expect from their parents. You drop her off at a house not too far away and she will thank you with $80. Shooting her will result in nothing extra.
