Writer's Block

[Love me! LOVE DOPEFISH!]

I need some help. In the mission Writer's Block, where you go to Soho for the graffiti competition, I keep getting my arse handed to me. I've memorized all the spraycan locations, but something happens all the time. I notice Moon Runners particularly love doing flying body crosses at me, making me lose my can whether I'm spraying or running for it. Need some help plz.

It took me two tries, but basically I bopped my way through any gang member that got in my way... I wasted a bunch of guys on my way to the paint.

Another trick: load up on paint first... get about six cans, and then do your piece.

actually, I beat it like 5 missions ago.

Yeah I called it a night after I wasted Virgil. Its getting pretty tough now.

i beat it playing two-person co-op, but here goes:

you start with spray for the first tag; from then on, spray will only appear on the map if none of the other gangs are spraying. if one of them is, just find him and punch him once to make him stop. this will cause a paint location to immediately appear on the map. then it's just a foot race. if someone beats you to it, just punch him once and paint will reappear on the map at a different spot. also, have your warriors watch your back so the other gangs don't interrupt you!

good luck!

So the cans you buy in Coney will be there when you're in SoHo?

dude - i don't know if you can load up ahead of time or not; i didn't - it took three tries, but the system that worked best for me is a few replies back...

you can't load up ahead of time with paint on that level..i tried that....

Be Cool!!!

Do your 1st piece and I found the next can was behind the truck trailer in the corner (you can see it undernesth before jumping on boards to the roof of the tralier and down the other side). After the next tagging is done, walk back in the middle and pan about looking at the regeneration points (top of the van and on the various pieces of scaffold) there should always be one ready to take. Be patient and try to avoid pointless fighting.

I twice got just to the end of the last drawing and got beat by the moonrunners. Really annoying. I finished it eventually tho. Then did the next one first time. Writers block was the hardest so far i reckon.
