Complete the Vigilante Mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories using the Rhino. Learn where to find Police Bribes and how to lower your wanted level.
Walkthrough
- 1If you have the Rhino, use it for the Vigilante Mission. You do not need to use the Tank Gun or the Tank Gun Boost trick; simply run over targets.
- 2Avoid hitting too many civilian vehicles to prevent your wanted level from increasing.
- 3Keep an eye on your armor (HUD (heads-up display — the on-screen icons showing health, ammo and the minimap) element showing vehicle health) and get some when necessary, as you can still be shot through the Rhino's viewport.
- 4After passing Level 10, smoke will appear from the tank. To keep damage low, go back to one of your Safehouses after each checkpoint (an auto-save point you restart from on death).
- 5Enter the Safehouse garage, exit the vehicle, and let the door close to repair the tank using the Garage Repair Trick.
- 6Get back in the Rhino and continue the mission.
- 7To lower your wanted level, use the five Police Bribes. The source suggests using them on the West Side to deal with police better while in the tank.
- 8Avoid hitting too many cars, as this can cause your wanted level to go back up before you can lower it.
- 9The route to get the five Bribes is as follows: From the Arena, head east to the main street, then turn north. Follow the road curve east, then turn south into the narrow alley for the first Bribe. Continue south, turn west through the Hyman Condo area, turn south onto the main road, and turn left at the next intersection. Head east towards Ammu-Nation, then turn south at the intersection past Site [DTN-ES3].
- 10Just before the Police Station, turn east into the alleys to grab the Bribe behind The Rockstar Building.
- 11Return to the street, head south towards the Moist Palms Hotel Construction Site. Enter the site and get the next Bribe near the crane.
- 12Exit the site, go back north, loop west behind the wall to the parking lot where the Decoy Van was picked up. Use this open area to get back to the Print Works.
- 13Enter the Print Works and use the Bribe there.
- 14Cut south through Little Havana, avoiding traffic. At the intersection, turn east towards the Police Station, then turn south into the alley between the Station and Site [ES-LTV13]. Just south of The Trailer Park is the last Police Bribe.
- 15Use the last Bribe to lower your wanted level to 1-Star.
- 16Drive the Rhino to the 101 Bayshore Avenue Safehouse and wait for the wanted level to disappear to successfully complete the mission.
- 17Put the Rhino in the garage to save it for later.
Tips
- A favorite strategy is to have a car saved at a Safehouse, swap vehicles, and take your car to a Pay 'N' Spray. However, using the five Police Bribes is recommended when in the Rhino.
- If you manage to get rid of the occupants and take the Rhino, you need to knock the wanted level down to complete the mission.
- Any soldier out in the open should be dealt with quickly before they can do damage, as they can kill you as quickly as the FBI.
