GTA 4 Liberty City Subway Challenge

[Beer Baron]

I believe that I am indeed the first person together with Dr Who to visit all 26 stations in Liberty City on GTA 4

Our time was 26mins 28secs and was timed by Going Underground, watch started when doors closed on first train departure and stopped when doors opened at our last station

The target is set for all you GTA4 owners, assuming you have unlocked the 2nd island......

There is a map of the system at http://www.somegate.com/topic_new.php?topic_uid=1411

When this comes out on PC next month I will have to have a go at this.

It's that tricky Easton change that hinders me. 10 minute wait there last time!

May I just say that I don't really like GTA4 all that much. San Andreas was the best GTA game they ever made and I still play it now. I've gone off GTA4.

[Dr Who]

Me & Beer Baron have just tried the route in reverse, and have set a new time of 26mins 27secs!

[greatkingrat]

Can you threaten the drivers with rocket launchers to get them to drive more quickly?

[Root]

Haha, virtual subway challenging. Very cool.

[jbom1]

So, will a virtual London ever happen?

Not wanting to bump old threads but, as the game uses 1 real minute = 1 game hour, a time of 26mins (26 game hours) is nearly accurate when compared to the real NY time.

Must get around to doing this myself.

[mullardo]

Sorry, I need two clarifications on this challenge. (I know it's not real but still)

1. Does the Amnysrc rule of no out of system transfers apply?

2. Does Easton count as 1 or 2 stations (Like Times Square in real New York is 5 stations)?


I set a time of 24 minutes 43 seconds but its validity depends on the answer of the above two questions

[Starkey7]

We don't have any of those American rules here. You can run between any two stations you like; just don't drive between them - even in the old bangers you get on GTA.

I have got a time of 24 min 11.81 seconds. I was quite lucky with my Easton change which was waiting in the platform after my change. The videos of my journey can be viewed here and here. I am currently planning a possibly faster route.

Nice time Krollo and welcome to the forum
Beer Baron / Dr Who you better get GTA 4 Liberty City loaded

[Sam]

Wow! Reviving a thread from 2 years ago... Impressive! Welcome by the way

[krollo]

My start and finish points were Hove Beach and City Hall respectively. The long gap between Frankfort Low and Windmill Street is quite irritating, will try to plan around that...
