Intro
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the beginning...
-------------
Difficulty: Very Easy
After watching the intro scenes, you'll have to go to a hotel called Ocean
View. The basics of the game are explained by messages that appear on the top-left
side of your screen.
Enter the grey car next to you by pressing the 'enter+exit' button (standard
keys are 'F' and 'Enter'). Now just drive to the location marked by a purple
square on your radar (on the bottom-left side of your screen), and stop in the
purple marker. Get out of the car by pressing the 'enter+exit' button again,
and walk into the hotel, where you will be thaught how to save your game. Walk
towards the stairs and watch the cutscene.
After this you can either choose to start with your first real mission, or
to explore the city. You could try out different cars and bikes, and learn to
drive them. A good way to get to know the city is by playing taxi missions.
Just steal a taxi cab (run to one, and press the 'enter+exit' button. Tommy
will automatically throw the driver out and take place) and press 'caps-lock'.
Note: the police won't come after you when you violate small traffic rules,
like driving through a red light, or driving too fast (or under influence ;-),
but only if they see you stealing a car, when you kill several citizens, when
hitting a police officer or police car, or during missions. The six stars on
the right of your screen show you how much the police is after you. The more
stars are filled (yellow), the more the police is after you. If you have one
star, it will disappear after a moment. If you have two stars, changing cloths
(at clothing shops, or in your hotel room) will remove the stars. If you have
three or more stars, only driving into a Pay 'n Spray garage with your car will
remove all the stars. Also, after completing a mission, all your wanted-stars
will disappear (with the exception of 'messing with the man'). Another way to
lose wanted-stars is by driving over police bribes, which are located all over
the town. When you run over a police bribe, one wanted-star will disappear.
In this mission guide you will read about drive-by shootings. Here's how the
drive-by method works: simply press your 'look left' or 'look right' key. As
long as you have a submachine gun (Uzi, Mac, MP5) with some bullets, you can
now just press your 'fire' button, and Tommy will shoot. It's not possible to
aim at drive-by shootings.
When you are ready to play your first mission, go to the 'L' mark on your radar,
and walk into the purple marker. [up]

Ken Rosenberg - Washington Beach
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Party
-------------
$100
Difficulty: Very Easy
Ken Rosenberg knows a man, Colonel Cortez, who helped him to set up the deal.
He's giving a party on his boat, and all the big heads of Vice City will be
there. Ken doesn't want to go himself, because he's too afraid they will kill
him, so you'll have to go in behalf of Ken.
First you need a change of clothes. Get to the Raphael's, marked on your radar
by a blue t-shirt. Walk into the purple marker, and your clothes get changed.
Now visit Cortez. He is marked by a purple square on your radar. You can take
the bike on the other side of the street if you like, but be careful: the owner
doesn't like that you steal his bike, so don't let him get you.
The boat of Cortez is located behind a large white building. You can see on
the screenshot below how to get there.
Follow the purple arrow to find Cortez' boat
You will meet Cortez and his daughter Mercedes, who will tell you who all the
people on the party are. The mission now is to take Mercedes to a strip club
called Pole Position. You can either use a car or a motor bike (or go on foot
if you feel like walking) to get there. Once you get there, go to the purple
marker, and your mission is finished. You will be rewared $100.
If you like, you can change clothes again. Go to the Ocean View hotel, walk
upstairs, go to the left, then to the right, and go into the room at the end
of the hall on your left. Now walk over the purple icon with the blue shirt
in it. [up]
Back Alley Brawl
-------------
$200
Difficulty: Easy
Time for a tiny little bit of action. Rosenberg sais he knows somebody who
is very much involved into Vice City's crime business, that he should know more
about the coke.
After the cut scene drive to the Malibu Club in Vice Point. Enter the club
and watch another cutscene. Kent Paul knows a chef who could give you more information.
Get in a car, and drive to the alley where the chef is waiting. However, he
will not give you any information and starts beating you. Beat him back by pressing
your left mouse button several times, until he is dead. Pick up the portable
phone he drops, and watch another cutscene, in which you are being introduced
to a new character: Lance Vance.
The Malibu Club should be easy to find
While talking to Lance, three other chefs with knives appear behind you, and
Lance commands you to follow him. Although Lance gives you a gun, do not try
to kill the chefs, as they will probably wound you a lot, and they're not worth
your time. Instead, run after Lance (using your 'sprint' key to sprint), get
in his car and drive away. If you run out of breath, you can jump forward, which
goes faster than walking. Be sure not to hesitate, or else the chefs will get
you. If you like, you can run the chefs over once you're in the car, however
you take the risk of drawing police attention.
Now drive to the Ammu-Nation weapons store, where you'll get a quick tutorial
in buying weapons. After that, return to the Ocean View hotel, and the mission
will end. [up]
Jury Fury
-------------
$400
Difficulty: Very Easy
This is as simple as a mission can get. You need to make two jurors change
their mind about a case. To do so, you'll have to smash their cars so they get
frightened. There are two targets, and no time limit. Just after the cutscene
with Ken Rosenberg, you'll see another cutscene in which a car runs over some
guy. That guy leaves a hammer.
Get the hammer, then get in a car. Now drive to one of the two jurors (marked
by a yellow square or triangle on your radar; an upside triangle means the target
is above you, a downwards triangle means the target is belowe you). The sequence
in which you trash their cars is not important. Just remember: smash their cars,
not themselves!
The first juror in Ocean Beach. This one is the closest to Ken's appartment,
so you might want to start with this one (it is marked by the square on your
radar while being in front of Ken's appartment). Drive to him, get out of your
car and smash his car (again: not himself!) which is parked there. Smash untill
it starts burning, then get away from it (you don't want to blow up yourself
do you?) and watch it explode.
The second juror is located in Vice Point. This one is even easier: you only
have to keep smashing till the juror runs out of his appartment, not even till
it blows.
Be aware that it might take a while before you reach your goal. Just keep
smashing on the cars with your hammer. If you have enough ammo, you might as
well shoot with your pistol or any other gun you are carrying, as long as the
cars get damached. The only real advice I can give is the following: keep smashing/shooting
at the same place. You might think you have to smash the cars from different
sides, but this not the case: if you smash them while you keep standing on one
spot, and hitting the car on the same spot, it will be no different then if
you smash the cars from all different sides. [up]
-> You have now access to the first telephone mission
Riot
-------------
$1000
Difficulty: Easy
This one is a little bit harder then the previous missions, though still not
very challenging. A delivery company won't sell, so you'll have to take them
out of business, by destroying three vans. In order to do so, you'll have to
create a riot at the company's place, so the gates where the vans are behind
will open, and guards will come out. It's a good idea to buy some bullets for
your pistol at the Ammu-Nation before you go to the company's place. Next to
that you can get 100 armor (if you know where to find it), but this is not really
nessecary.
First, visit Raphael's and get a change of clothes. Just follow the blue t-shirt
on your radar. After that, visit the place where the vans are. Now you'll have
to start fighting with at least four people. Just kick (or shoot, whatever you
like) one, then run away and hit another, etc, till you have four people angry.
Best thing is to shoot four people who are far away, so it takes them a while
to run to you. The gates will open, and you will get a two-star wanted level.
Don't get nervous: you shouldn't find any cops getting in there, except of the
guards who already were there. Besides, after completing the mission you will
lose your wanted level.
Get in the place behind the gates where the vans are. Shoot the red barrel
which is positioned on your right, next to one of the vans (see the screenshot).
It will explode, causing one of the vans to burn and explode, which causes again
a second van to burn and explode. The guard who is shooting at you will also
explode. If not, kill him. If anyone else follows you and tries to beat you,
kick or shoot him. There's only one van left, located on the left side. Shoot
at it, or trash it using your hammer or any other hand-weapon, untill it explodes.
Shooting the red barrel on this side will also help a little, however it will
not cause the van to blow up. After the three vans have been destroyed, the
mission is complete. You now might want to watch the people who are still fighting,
and collect all the money the dead people drop :-).
Shoot the red barrel, and both the vans and the guard will explode
After completing this mission, you've finished all your missions for Ken Rosenberg.
