Technology GTA IV Out Of Commission Problem

[Bobby Sands]

This is the last mission in GTA IV if you chose to get revenge on Dimitri rather than do the deal with him. Im doing this mission. Do you guys know the part where you have to follow Pegorino's speedboat along the coastline on the dirtbike? I get to the point where the helicopter flys over me and I drive off the ramp which triggers the cut scene where Niko grabs onto the helicopter. Then it tells you to tap A (not sure what the button is on PS3) to pull Niko up into the helicopter. I tap A as much as i can but he wont climb into the helicopter and eventually falls off and the mission is failed.I have tried it 3 times. I have to go back and start the whole mission again. Its so annoying. I think its a bug or something.

Anyone else have this problem?

No, I tapped A really fast and succeeded the second time I tried.
It was an annoying mission though.

 

[Bobby Sands]

^^im tapping it as fast as i can and nothing. He doesnt even attempt to climb in.

yea its wrecking my head. i just want to get the game finished.

oh yeah I remember now. There used to be a bug or something.

From what I remember sometimes changing your controls might help. Or maybe you have already changed your controls from the default ones?

 

[Bobby Sands]

no i never changed my controls. i will try doing that if i cant get it to work. thanks

i dont really want to go back and do the deal option because that means poor Roman dies

yea, the chase was pretty annoying to me. re-did it like 5-6 times. but I never had problems gettin in tha chopper (on ps3).

yeah I also made that woman die. I never liked her and never found her attractive so it was an easy choice
Roman is cool.

^^i never really interacted with her much so i didnt really care butt Roman is a great character imo. Very funny. so is Brucie.

 

[Bobby Sands]

I did it. I tapped the shit out of that A button and got into the chopper. It was a piece of cake from there on. Actually the whole mission was apart from nearly breaking my finger for that part. lol

This really was a great game imo.

i loved it. im 85% complete now. Im going for 100%. Not looking forward to finding all 190 of those pigeons i have still to kill though
