I always stand inside the parking lot and shoot the rival gang members as they drive by. Standing on the roof can help with that, too.

It resets pretty much the next mission after you unlock them in the first place, it's completely pointless unlocking them at that point in the story.

You mean improves x10? Suburb gang fights are pure kino, it gives the whole city more reasons to exist, it's not just a useless decoration that only exists for you to drive through while the failed Cockstar writer dumps boring soap drama dialogues on you for 10 minutes straight, it's an actual part of gameplay that you have to traverse, explore, use in combat, get familiar with, get close with. It's YOUR town because you know it like the back of your hand now, you earned this town.
It's one of the reasons why 4 and 5 are so shit when compared to 3D era, they don't utilize their own map enough.

Did you motherfuckers never realize that you're the one who needs to be in the highlighted area when you get the kills in order for the war to trigger? You can literally snipe gang members from a block away as long as CJ is in the area and it will trigger the war after a certain number of kills.

Holy fuck, I figured this shit out when I was 14, get your shit together.
>>
>>729517774
It was intended to be a rugpull so it makes sense from a story perspective at least. The real problem is Rockstar North's asshole game design allowing you to participate in the turf wars outside of missions at that point. I can basically guarantee you some Scottish cunt was giggling by himself at all the players who would waste time doing something that was about to be reset in just a few missions' time.

I never fucked with gang turf outside of the minimum amount you need to takeover to trigger the last mission. Like the areas make fuck all sense and almost seem entirely random

>>729519213
I can't even imagine how much worse the gang wars system would be if there was an additional element of having to potentially travel to another city to defend your territory while trying to conquer it elsewhere. It would've been cool to take over all three of the cities though, although I don't think it really makes narrative sense.

Even if you activate the territory glitch it's city specific ie. if you're in San Fierro, only San Fierro territories can be randomly attacked.
>>
>>729516978
This is what i wanted in gaming. This and the faction system in skyrim except expanded with better AI, more interactions that you influence the war with. We have gotten nothing and worse AI and gaming got worse.

This half fleshed out prototype was the peak.
>>
>>729519523
Well that's funny, I almost added to my post something about if it only affected the city you're in it might be reasonable, but I figured Rockstar doesn't really do reasonable.

Played once on a roleplay server. Some guy yelled to me like he was in the army, I didn't know what he was talking about so I stabbed him several times, and then I got banned.

>>729516978
Still better than Vice City where you had to grind for literal hours (irl) to get enough money to buy the properties and then do all the mundande side missions to unlock the final mission. WHAT WERE THEY THINKING??!?!
>>
>>729519636
it already works like that in the vanilla game. if you're out of Los Santos your turf never gets attacked.

The glitch happens because of the code that's suppose to clear out the 'unexplored fog' on the pause menu map. When you travel too far, the coordinates get too large and it causes the memory pointer to overflow into the territory gangwar flags, and starts flipping them to enabled.

The gangs already being preset is a leftover from when the gangwar mechanic was much larger scale.
>>
>>729518368
Its not a time waste, it gives you access to guns you would otherwise be unable to attain.
>>
>>729519893
The actual Scarface game was great though, going from selling grams to hood dealers to moving keys from the islands was kino.
>>
>>729520043
>the coordinates get too large and it causes the memory pointer to overflow
Oh huh, that's kind of stupid
>>
>>729516978
Upon a recent replay of the trilogy, gang wars singlehandedly brought down the whole experience. It's so fucking boring and tedious. Resorted to the vehicle mission cheese strat to beat them quicker.
>>729519806
There's money exploits in all the 3D GTA games.
>>
>>729520709
Since you use money exploits, I'm going to assume you were rushing thru the game treating it like a job. GTA is best played at your own pace and not when you're playing it like you have a bomb up your ass.
>>
>>729518937
Theres a way to unlock Turf wars across the map, you aren't intended to and idk if its a glitch or cut feature.
>>
>>729517615
happened to me on my first playthrough
>unlock all areas
>green sabre mission happens
>...
yeah I was pissed
>>
>>729521865
No I used money exploits for Vice City so I could buy everything you need towards the end of the game without grinding. Didn't matter anyway because I did the Hunter vigilante missions and they're too easy and broken as well. I did it in San Andreas because it literally takes 5 minutes in the betting shop to have more money than you'll be ever need. My own pace is my own pace. Didn't feel like I was rushing at all
>>
>>729516978
For me, it’s having to do all
The property missions in order to beat vice city. Imagine if you had to buy every property in GTAV in order to unlock the final mission
>>
>>729519945
>anon's RAM is crapping out at the worst possible moment
oh no...
>>
>>729517520
You can stand within the zone and the appropriate gang should appear wherever peds can spawn.
For areas like this you need to find a place that lets you see foot traffic from afar and pick them off at a distance until it triggers the war.

It's easily the least developed feature in the game and shit like this really demonstrates that. Even fan fixes don't quite bring it up to par with the rest of the game. If anybody drops San Adreas because of this feature alone I can't blame them.

I had a file where the entire map was covered in gangs, and I do mean all of it, not just the urban parts of SF and LV. Getting a bunch of goons into a bus on grove street, then driving all the way to SF to shoot Ballas was so fucking fun

>>729522452
>Getting a bunch of goons into a bus
That's a good idea, didn't think of that before
>>
>>729519048
you can just paint the entire map and its no longer a problem
gang war is bad because the combat of GTA SA is bad
on the PS2 its all about packing as much health and armor as you can and then grabbing an AK to mow down mindless hordes
on PC you can do headshots and crouch behind cover but it doesn't change much, just that you don't need an AK for it to be effortless
the whole recruiting gang member part is completely stupid because the AI will get itself killed in the first few waves and your allies are always underequipped compared to the enemy
>>
>>729516978
I found it useful for grinding weapon skills early on.
But I haven't done the full takeover after the last mission ever since I was 10 or something.

That's really dumb programming. You'd think they'd put some kind of barrier that teleports you back X amount of coordinates. That's how the infinite stairs work in Mario 64.

Mario can bypass the stair by using a backwards long jump to go fast enough that the game doesn't register him as touching the teleport. But CJ in a plane is always going a certain speed so this would've been almost impossible to bypass.

I really wish they hadn't let you spend that much time on it. Maybe just have 6-10 territories you can claim and then add in more when it comes back later in the game.

But you lose all your guns in the same mission it resets your territories.

Wasn't there a mission that required you to obtain a bunch of territories before doing it? I think it was reuniting the families or something.
