Practice Swing

Practice Swing – misja w The Ballad of Gay Tony, druga lub trzecia dla Anthony'ego Prince'a.

Solucja

Tony jest zdenerwowany - sprzedał interesy dwóm osobom, a teraz każda z nich myśli, że posiada je w całości. Najpierw, jedziemy na pole golfowe Golden Pier. Spotkamy tam Rocco, bezskutecznie próbującego wydobyć informacje w pewnego mafioso. Po przerywniku zostaniemy zapoznani z grą w golfa. Używając analoga lub myszki, sterujemy celownikiem znajdującym się na polu. Celownik ustawiamy na mężczyźnie przywiązanym do wózka golfowego. Obok radaru, zobaczymy pasek mocy uderzenia. Gdy będziemy przesuwać celownik do przodu i do tyłu, czarna kreska na nim także zmieni położenie. Wciskamy A (Xbox 360), (PS3) lub LPM (PC) aby przygotować się do strzału. Wciskamy ten sam przycisk, aby uderzyć piłeczkę. Jeżeli trafimy dokładnie w czarną kreskę na pasku mocy, piłeczka poleci dokładnie tam, gdzie chcemy. Kiedy trafimy cel po raz pierwszy, Rocco spróbuje się czegoś od niego dowiedzieć. Nie jest zadowolony z zeznań - przesunie wózek golfowy w inne miejsce, a my znów będziemy musieli go trafić jeszcze dwa razy. W miarę celnych strzałów, Rocco będzie się od nas oddalał, utrudniając nam zadanie. Gdy Rocco dowie się już wszystkiego, na pole golfowe przyjadą trzy wozy Messinas - zacznie się strzelanina. Schodzimy na dół najszybciej jak się da, chowamy się za wózkiem golfowym i jak najszybciej (nie możemy zniszczyć wózka) zdejmujemy wszystkich po kolei strzałami w głowę (12 celów). Gdy już pozbędziemy się celów, wsiadamy do wózka, za którym się schowaliśmy i zaczynamy jechać za Rocco. Po dłuższej jeździe zatrzymujemy się obok Rocco. Gdy zakończy się przerywnik, jedziemy wózkiem golfowym (lub innym pojazdem) do apartamentu Tony'ego.

Ciekawostki

Po ataku członków Messina Family każde uszkodzenie zabije mafioso przywiązanego do wózka golfowego. Nawet zwykłe uderzenie pięścią pozbawi go życia.
Podczas tej misji można zdobyć unikalny wózek golfowy z siatką. Jednak można to zrobić jedynie poprzez jej niezaliczenie.

Scenariusz

Wiadomość tekstowa przed misją
Anthony Prince	Could do with some help at Maisonette. Come by during opening hours or I'll see you at the loft. T xx
W apartamencie Tony'ego
Anthony Prince	Oh, where the fuck have you been, man?
Luis Lopez	Yeah, I came as soon as I could.
Anthony Prince	I don't pay for 'as soon as I could'. Sleeping with half the women in Liberty City, no doubt.
Luis Lopez	What's wrong with you, man? You're acting like an asshole.
Anthony Prince	You think I don't know that? You think I like being like this?
Luis Lopez	Then what's wrong, T?
Anthony Prince	I've fucked up. Good and proper. I work Algonquin nightlife twenty years. I beat everyone. Mayors, rivals, drugs, everyone. And this time, I've fucked up. I'm the only man in the history of this town with the hottest gay and straight clubs at the same time and I am about to lose everything.
Luis Lopez	What are you talking about, T?
Anthony Prince	I don't know if it's that idiot Evan, or the economy, or this fucking cocaine or the pills, which I am not taking anymore, but this time, I fucked up. I've done a deal with the wrong devil, man. I am such an idiot.
Luis Lopez	Things have been bad before, man; I fight, you plot, together we get out of it.
Anthony Prince	Sure. But we've never been this fucked before.
Luis Lopez	Hey, you saved me, man, made me. Gay Tony will always be the king of this town. You are this town.
Anthony Prince	I sold the business to two different people and they each think they own the lot. Man, we're fucked.
Luis Lopez	So, I'll go tell them they gave you the money as a present, and if they don't like it, I take them to the special VIP room at the bottom of the West River.
Anthony Prince	It's going to be very crowded in the VIP room. These are not nice people and there's a lot of them, and right now, you and me have to go play nice with one of them so they don't start sending rent-a-goombah into theclub. Fuck.
Luis Lopez	It's going to be okay, man.
Anthony Prince	Yeah, whatever. Meanwhile, there's a- there's this blogger, this nebbish with an internet connection, bad mouthing me all over town. Do you know this guy? 'The Celebinator'?
Luis Lopez	Celebe-what?
Anthony Prince	I... whatever... Come on... Alright who's the girl?
Luis Lopez	There wasn't a girl, man.
Anthony Prince	There's always a girl.
Tony i Luis wsiadają do wozu
Anthony Prince	Head down to the pier. We're meeting Rock at the driving range.
Po drodze do klubu golfowego Golden Pier
Luis Lopez	We doing something for Rocco? The kid who took your money?
Anthony Prince	Yes. One of the joys of getting old is being ordered around by people below the age of consent in Utah.
Luis Lopez	Don't you mean it's one of the joys of borrowing money you can't pay back?
Anthony Prince	He can take my money, blackmail me, put a gun to my head, but if I'm caught in bed with him it's me who goes to jail.
Luis Lopez	Rocco struck me as an insecure prick, but I didn't think he rolled like that.
Anthony Prince	He doesn't! I don't think he does, at least. Do you think he does? All that pent up suburban hard man angst. The fake tan and muscles can be confusing.
Luis Lopez	Actually, he reminds me of Evan.
Anthony Prince	So sue me, I got a type.
Luis Lopez	Yeah. Sure. You could call crazy coke addict moron a type.
Anthony Prince	You been reading my Lovemeet profile? "Lonely old has-been seeks crazy coke head with bulging orange biceps." Enjoy your youth, Luis. You don't appreciate it until it's over.
Luis Lopez	Oh yeah, I'll look back on these years of getting shot at and helping you clean up puke as the best times of my life.
Na miejscu
Anthony Prince	Come on. He's in here.
Tony i Luis podchodzą do Rocco
Rocco Pelosi	Oh!
Anthont Prince	Rock. Hey. How are you?
Rocco Pelosi	There they are. The spic and the fag. Tony, shit, you got burrito breath. You ain't been eating Mexican again have you?
Luis Lopez	Yo Rock, you've invested in the wrong clubs, man. Maybe Split Sides is more your vibe.
Rocco Pelosi	Oh, baa da boom. I'm sure I woulda found that funny if I spoke spic. Real shame, I'll have to ask my maid to translate for me.
Anthony Prince	Rock, what do you need?
Rocco Pelosi	I need you to help me get some information out of this union prick who's decided to get an over-inflated opinion of himself. These fucking guys, stuck in the 1970s or something.
Luis Lopez	Where is he?
Rocco Pelosi	He's right... down... there.
Do wózka golfowego na polu przywiązany jest przesłuchiwany; Rocco próbuje w niego trafić
Rocco Pelosi	Fuck.
Przesłuchiwany	You fucking missed me you, you piece of shit. Fucking prick.
Rocco Pelosi	Oh, big man?
Przesłuchiwany	Yeah yeah you fuck, you missed me bitch.
Rocco Pelosi	I'm gonna get down there and go talk to him.
Przesłuchiwany	You missed. You swing like a fag.
Rosso Pelosi	You hit him with some balls when I tell you to. You think you can do that for me, Louise?
Luis Lopez	Yeah, I'll give it a try.
Luis zaczyna grę
Luis Lopez	What we doing, man?
Anthony Prince	We're keeping our most important investor happy. Just hit it already.
Luis trafia przesłuchiwanego
Rocco Pelosi	Tell us who's causing problems already.
Przesłuchiwany	Alright. Okay. Mel Toblowsky with Libel says he ain't gonna comply. He's working down Columbus Avenue.
Rocco Pelosi	You got more than that. I know it.
Przesłuchiwany	That's it. Let me fucking go already.
Przed kolejnym uderzeniem
Luis Lopez	Doesn't Rocco have someone else to hit the batting cage for him?
Anthony Prince	You've met the guy, haven't you? I can't imagine he's got too many friends.
Luis trafia po raz kolejny
Rocco Pelosi	Gimme the rest of them, you piece of shit.
Przesłuchiwany	Alright, okay, okay, Jack Duffy, with the Transport Workers. He's getting fat off the other guys.
Przed kolejnym uderzeniem
Anthony Prince	Where'd you learn to play golf, Lou?
Luis Lopez	Right here. Right now. Needs must, Tone. To be honest, I never fancied the game. I find the clothes you have to wear kind of unflattering.
Luis trafia po raz trzeci
Rocco Pelosi	There's got to be more than just those two!
Przesłuchiwany	This is way over your head, dickwad. The head of the LTA is with the Messinas. You can't do nothing. You guys are fucked, okay? The Messinas are gonna be all over your ass.
Rocco Pelosi	You think that means shit to me? Fuck you.
Przyjeżdża parę wozów Messinas, gangsterzy zaczynają strzelać do Rocco
Rocco Pelosi	Fuck. Get down here, Taco!
Anthony Prince	Much as it pains me, we better get down there.
Luis wycina Messinas, razem z Tonym wsiada do wózka golfowego; za Rocco, Luis zaczyna uciekać z pola golfowego
Anthony Prince	Push it, Lou. Come on. We're nowhere near top speed in this thing.
Luis Lopez	Oh really, Tone? When did you become the golf buggy specialist?
Anthony Prince	Oh, I don't know. Just get us out of here and shut up.
Luis, Tony i Rocco po ucieczce z pola golfowego
Anthony Prince	That was a plesant outing, Rock. Where's that put us with you know what? We square?
Rocco Pelosi	Square? What you borrowed? At those points? You ain't even making a dent on the interest. Besides, I'm about to have to do all the messy work on this guy myself.
Przesłuchiwany	No! But I-I-I told you shit. I told you everything.
Rocco Pelosi	I'll see you guys later. (odjeżdża)
Przesłuchiwany	Jesus.
Luis i Tony znajdują samochód
Anthony Prince	Let's just head back to the apartment.
Po drodze do apartamentu Tony'ego
Luis Lopez	Hey you know, I'm really warming to that guy. Like a bad case of crabs.
Anthony Prince	Crabs are easy to get rid of. Believe me on that one.
Luis Lopez	Thank you for sharing.
Anthony Prince	We're business partners, we share everything.
Luis Lopez	The emphasis is on business, bro. You can keep your crabs to yourself.
Anthony Prince	Sorry, man, but I really got us in the shit here, Luis.
Luis Lopez	Tony, man, you got to calm down. You're really pushing it.
Anthony Prince	Yeah, well, if you weren't out chasing tail, and this was a two man operation like it should be, then maybe things would be holding together, better.
Luis Lopez	Oh! I'm getting blamed for this now? Oh of course. Whenever I come to the clubs you ask me to run off on some stupid errand like a chump. You don't ever let me into the serious shit. And you do deals without even telling me. Until it comes time to protect your ass from whoever you got your fatwa of the day from.
Anthony Prince	Alright. Alright. Maybe I have taken you for granted. I'll change. I'll be better.
Luis Lopez	Yeah, thank you, but I don't believe it.
Po dojechaniu do apartamentu
Luis Lopez	Here we are, bro. Rest up okay.
Anthony Prince	Listen, Lou, would you mind paying Mori a visit. He says he needs help with something. I know he's a bit of a schmuck, but we owe the man money and I don't want him anywhere near the clubs.
Luis Lopez	I feel you there, T. That guy is a social atom bomb. I'll go see him.
