Hint: Getting rid of cops:
Go to the territory of what ever gang you are working for and they will shoot them for you.

If you only have one bouncy cop head on the top of the screen and want to get rid of it, just hide somewhere. In a few minutes they will be gone.

If you have two or more cops on you, go to a car crusher, but make sure the cops are right behind you. When you jump out, the cops should leave their cars. If they do, run around in wide circles until they are far behind. Steal a cop car and put it under the crane. The crusher will activate and place the wreck on a conveyer belt. Follow the belt until you see a ramp leading up on one side and another going down on the other side. Wait there until you see a green dollar sign power-up appear from the building. When you collect it, a cop bribe message will appear and the cops will forget about you. Note: This will work even if you have four cops and the SWAT team after you.

If you are being chased by the police and in a car, find a car painting place. Paint your car and the cops will stop chasing you.

Regardless of how many cops heads are shown, this will get rid of them in the first level. Proceed to the church where the level begins. Walk to the tutorial phone and make sure that you activate the tutorial (and the man begins to speak to you). Immediately proceed to the west side of the building (left of the screen). Walk through the opening on the west side wall that leads up to the roof. The cop heads should be gone.

Hint: Money for being chased by the feds:
When there are four bobbing cop heads at the top of the screen, you will slowly be earning money. If you get the tank and just start running over other vehicles, four cops will appear quickly. If you are working for the Zaibatsu, try to make it to the car crusher in their territory with the tank. If you make it, and four cops are chasing you, just pull in and jump from the tank. The cops most likely will not follow if they were not close in their pursuit. Go to the back of the area, and wait.

Hint: No army on the first level:
The army is not available on the first level. No matter how much you kill and destroy your neighborhood, they will not show up until you reach level 2. The same is true for the CIA, however regular city police and SWAT appear.

Hint: Destroy the train and tank:
On the first level, steal the tank by the crane crusher. Drive it to the nearest train station -- you will have to drive up some stairs, which is difficult. Get into head-on collision with an oncoming train. When you see it coming, the track will fill with electricity, drive at fastest possible speed and fire at it head on. The impact will destroy both of you, but you can return to see it.

Hint: Using the tank:
To fire the cannon while riding in an army tank, just press Shoot. You can also run cars over in a tank; however each car that you run over will cause a small amount of damage to the tank.

In the Zaibatsu area, you can see a tank parked in a small lot. In order to get it, get a fast car (cop car, etc.) and go the street north of the lot. Drive to your right, then up on the very first intersection. Go up until you reach a turn. Go left and you will see a ramp. Go off the ramp and land on a fence roof. Go down the stairs to get the tank. Note: The tank is a kill frenzy.

Hint: Get a fire truck:
Blow up a car using the bazooka. Wait until a fire truck appears, then car jack it.

When you are in the fire truck, hold Horn and steer to aim.

Hint: Flamethrowing fire truck:
In level 2, go to the Zaibatsu Village to the green phones and answer the bottom one. Do the job up to the part where you have to steal a fire truck. Take it back to the village. A man will get in and the weapon will change from the water cannon to a flamethrower. Whether you finish the job or not, the truck is yours unless it explodes. If you fail you can do it over to get another flamethrowing fire truck.

Hint: Shoot water cannon while in fire truck:
To use the water cannon while riding in a fire truck, just press Shoot. The water cannon will not only push cops back, it will kill them if exposed for a total of five seconds.

Hint: Get a police car:
Repeatedly press the button used to enter cars to get into a police while the cops are still in it.

Hint: Get a police uniform:
In level 2, go to where the Z gang are found and answer one of the green phones with the mission called "Flame It". It will tell you to steal a cop car. Once you steal it, get out and you will be in a cop uniform. To stay in the cop uniform, do not finish the mission.

Hint: Taxi job:
Get a taxi, then park on the side of the road and wait. Sooner or later someone will enter the taxi and you will earn money.

Hint: News van:
The news van has a dish that always points towards the church.

Hint: Finding tanks:
There is a tank in area 1. It is located in the area around the Crane/Crusher in Altamont. Enter the area and turn left. When you see a small alleyway next to the water, go down it to find a tank. Enter it and a kill frenzy will begin. After the timer runs out, you can use the tank for whatever you desire. Note: Do not exit the tank unless you have to -- you will not be able to get back into it.

To get another tank in area 2, go to the garage across from the building with the staircase neary to where you found the first tank. Drive up until you reach one-way traffic, then back to two-way traffic. Starting at that red light, turn on the next street. Drive just briefly and the tank should be just off the road. To get to the tank you will have to get out of the car. Run on the beginning of the gray part on the side of the road.

In area 2, there are two tanks. To get to the first one, go to the left from the beginning. Youu will be on a four lane highway. Go left on the road. Turn right on the first road to the car's right. You should be driving north (up) on a two lane road. When you get to the end of the road, turn right. You should immediately see a road to the car's left (north of you) running parallel to the road that you are on. Turn left on that road and you will be on a bridge. At the end of the bridge, you will see a tank in the alley to the car's right. To get to it, turn right on the first road and you will immediately see a large alley to the right. Follow the alley and to get to the tank. The second one is slightly more confusing to reach. As in the first tank, go to the left from the beginning and go left down the four lane road. Then, turn left on the third road, then turn right on the first road, then left on the first road. If you are on the correct street, you will be driving south and end up on a large ramp. Go on the ramp and you will fly into another ramp. Turn onto the second road to your left. That road turns left. Where it does, you will see a tank on the roof of a building. Keep going down the same street and turn on the first road to your left. When you reach an intersection, you will see a set of stairs leading to the roof. Go down into narrow passageway and follow the rooftops to get to the tank.

To get a tank in area 3, go to the Zaibatsu Power Core. As you drive along the street, look at the top of the screen. You should just about see a tank through the metal grid at the top. The entrance may be at the top of the compound but is very hard to get to.

As you start on area 3, go to the first main road one screen left of your starting position. You are now in Tedium. Follow that road north until you reach Mad Island. Rednecks from the second island will be shooting at you constantly. Follow the road around to the left until you can no longer go north. There is a path that leads to the tank. You will have to make some building jumps and kill more rednecks to get over there. Once you do so, you can just drive the tank up over the ramp it is next to.

Hint: Explosive present:
Steal a truck cab and attach a trailer to it. Take the combined vehicles into a bomb garage to rig the trailer. Select the newly bought car bomb and press Fire. This will detach the trailer and set the explosive, leaving the trailer behind ready to blow. This can be useful when you are being chased.

Hint: Big rig trucker fun:
When in a truck cab in any city, look for a flatbed with a car on it, or a normal box rig like a Ryder truck. Reverse into its frontside and it will attach onto the cab. After you are driving and want to get rid of the flatbed, press L and it will detach.

Hint: Temporary invincibility:
In the Residential Sector , steal a B-Type and bring in to the Scrapyard to be crushed. A few seconds later, an icon will appear on the conveyer belt . Get it and you will be invincible for awhile.

Hint: Bad civilians:
Watch out for people wearing red shirts. They will try to steal your and other people's money. They will not try to steal the money if you or they are in a vehicle. Also, lawman and gang members will shoot to kill them. Watch out for people wearing green shirts. They will try to steal vehicles even if you are in them. They also drive recklessly and will run over you or anyone that gets in their way. The person that was in that vehicle previously will yell at the person in the green shirt and tell them to get out -- he will do so. Lawman and gang members will also shoot to kill them.

Hint: Easy money:
Get a high multiplier and get a tank. Use the tank to wreak havoc and do not get busted by the cops. The army will make this a lot harder on level 2 and 3. The tank will blow up by taking four powerful hits.

Hint: Quick wanted level 2:
Steal a car, rig it with a bomb, then create a huge traffic jam in a two lane road. As soon as at least four or five cars are blocked up, arm the bomb and get out of the area. In about five seconds the bomb will explode, destroying all the cars around you.

Hint: Ride a train:
For a fast way to get around the cities, go to a train station. When a train stops press Car Jack to hop in the train.
