Changes: Smackdown (GTA IV)

Revision as of 04:59, 9 September 2014

“

Your brother said you needed a hand. Looks like you'll need more than that.

”

Smackdown is the first mission that Niko Bellic does for Derrick McReary in Grand Theft Auto IV. To get the mission the player can call Packie after the Three Leaf Clover mission. Derrick is one of the McReary brothers. In this mission Derrick asks Niko to kill one of his war mates, Bucky Sligo.

When Niko meets Derrick at the park in Acter, Alderney, he's severely intoxicated and incoherent. It takes a while for him to explain that he's got a problem. One of his War buddies, Bucky Sligo who was busted into prison by Derrick is now blackmailing him, threatening to kill his family. Derrick decides to end this, so he asks Niko to kill him.

Walkthrough

In order to find Bucky's whereabouts the player will need to get access to a police computer, which means to enter a police car. There are a few parked nearby since an LCPD station is right around the block. Once inside a police car, bring up the police computer and search for "Bucky Sligo" (or just "Bucky").

The police computer will list Bucky's hideout, a Burger Shot in northern Alderney, and then proceed to the destination. On route Niko will briefly call Derrick to inform him of this.

Pull up to the Burger Shot location. A cutscene shows Niko blasting the siren and Bucky riding away. Chase the truck through the various alleys until he parks his truck at his hideout. Bucky will abandon his car and head into the hideout, where the five members of his crew are stationed. Killing Bucky and his gang will then result in a two-star wanted level.

Once the player has evaded the police, Derrick will call Niko while intoxicated and say that alive and dead are "both the same thing." Niko tells him he will speak to him when he is among the living.

Mission objectives

In order to complete the mission the player must:

Find a cop car
Use the police computer to find Bucky's hangout
Search for BUCKY SLIGO
Drive to Burger Shot where Bucky hangs out
Follow Bucky to his crew
You have found Bucky's crew, take down the whole gang
Lose your wanted level

Tips

If you're dating Kiki, and are on good terms with her, you can call her to lose the wanted level.
It might be a good idea to call for back up when you arrive at Bucky's place in a Police Patrol to save you the extra work and ammo.

After the Mission

Shortly after you finish this mission, Niko gets a phone call from Brucie who says his pal Stevie will be in touch about "some cars he needs found". From now on Niko will receive text messages from Stevie with locations and photos of cars that he can steal and to deliver to him for a cash reward.
Soon after you complete this mission, Niko will get a text from Ray Boccino. He tells Niko that he has set up a new safehouse for him in Alderney. It is located on Mahesh Avenue in Alderney City, not too far from the Booth Tunnel that connects Alderney and Algonquin.

On the way, Niko will call Derrick and explain that [[Bucky Sligo|Sligo]]'s hideout is at the [[Burger Shot]] in Northern [[Alderney]].

Just chase the van through the various alleys until he parks his van at his hideout. Gain cover behind your police car and kill Bucky. Then kill the men on the front porch. They have excellent cover so grenades are recommended.

-===Alternate Way to Attack Bucky's Men===
-An easier way to complete the mission is to follow it normally until Bucky arrives at the house and his gang starts shooting at Niko. Get out and crouch behind the car. Call 911 over and over again and eventually there will be about a dozen cops there, all of them focusing fire on the gang members, provided that the gang members were still shooting at Niko. The police will hear the gunshots and attack the gangsters, so make sure not to fire a weapon or gain a [[Wanted Level in GTA IV|wanted level]]. Eventually, with luck, the police will enter the house and take out the rest of the gang members. After all the gang members are dead, the player will still receive a two star wanted level, so make sure to have a good getaway plan.
+===In order to complete the mission the player must:===
-Or you can call [[Dwayne Forge]]'s backup, then go around the house, and go through the back way for a little surprise. You still get a 2-star wanted level. There's usually a car in the drive-way for a getaway vehicle, Or you can just get in the police car after you've killed all the guys.
