About how many missions do I have to complete before I can access the new weapons (automatic 9mm, assault shotgun, grenade launcher etc.) I really want to take my time and not finish it before the new DLC is out (or the release date at least), but if you don't get until you're halway through the story I might hurry up a little. I've got a few other question about L&D if you don't mind (answers without spoilers please, just started the game) maybe throw in a little 5 or 6 mission expansion pack. something like $5 and you get 5 new clothing stores, 5 new girlfriends and a couple new guns. i like the whole "gang" thing better than the 'one man against the world' thing. the fans who want it will be happy and the fans who dont care will not have to use the feature. i know i am like a million other people out there but i say bring back the modded cars, haircuts, the gym, getting fat, more more more clothes, more of a selection of girls to date (like if you dump one, a new one will be available. when you do the other things it just makes the game last longer. i know some people just do the missions like 5-10 at a time and dont even take their time with checking out the city and doing OTHER things like getting clothes, the internet, getting money to buy new guns. it wasnt that great in gta4 but at least it was something to do. that sucks that there is no dating in the game.

A successful date increases your 'like stat', and afterwards the girl may invite you in for some "hot coffee". In order to get the maximum success out of a date, therefore, you should refer to the initial opinions of all the activities listed in the table below, and try to vary the activities from date-to-date. Take your girlfriend to an activity that she likes (left) and then afterwards try your luck (right)


When her opinion of a specific place falls below 25, she refuses to go there anymore. For example, if you visit the Cluckin' Bell in Star Junction her opinion of it drops by 5, while her opinion of all other Cluckin' Bells in the city drops by 1. Each girl has an 'initial opinion' of each activity that is available, and each time you take her to a specific place her opinion of it drops by 5, while her opinion of all similar places drops by 1.
