Changes: Home's on the Range

Revision as of 02:29, 15 July 2019

“

Vic, I hope you play golf.

”

Home's on the Range is the first mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories given to protagonist Victor Vance by drug dealer Gonzalez from the Leaf Links golf club, Vice City.

Mission

Victor was asked by Gonzalez to meet him at the golf range in Leaf Links. After a short time of playing Gonzalez and a couple of his goons appear in Caddies. Gonzalez tells him that if he can play golf good enough then maybe they can work together. After playing a round, Victor eventually gets a perfect hit and Gonzalez praises him and the mission is completed.

Mission Objectives

In order to complete the mission the player must:

Press X to begin.
Press to set your shot's power.
The closer to the marker is in to the green section, the better.
Press to set your shot's accuracy.
Again, hitting the green section will provide the best shot.

Deaths

Jesús - Killed by Victor Vance on orders from Gonzalez.

Post mission pager message

Lance Vance: Watch your back Bro'. Word on the street is - Martinez has split from FED protection...

Notes

In order to complete this mission, Victor must time his swing sufficiently to score a direct hit on the buoy before Gonzalez does.
Attempting to enter the golf course through the main entrance results in Victor being stripped of his weapons, and due to a glitch not all of them are necessarily returned after. To avoid this, it's possible to hop the fence to the left or right of the entrance building. A more profitable option is to obtain a PCJ-600 and approach the golf course from the L-shaped road to the north. A ramp near the bottom of the "L" is a unique stunt jump that lands near the driving range and awards Victor $250 for the trouble (the bike will vanish after the mission, however).

Reward

The reward for completing this mission is $1,000. In addition, the optional side-mission Swinger's Club becomes available.

Trivia

This mission is similar to Practice Swing in The Ballad of Gay Tony, in which Luis Lopez has to hit a Union Man from the driving range for Rocco Pelosi.
This mission name makes a reference to a song of the same name.
