Every Mission In Grand Theft Auto Vice City Ranked From Worst To Best
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 апр 2024
- Back by popular demand, my rankings of GTA missions. GTA vice city is cited by many as the best GTA game ever, and while I disagree, there's certainly a case to be made. This game is unlike most of the rest of the series in it's structure and it has a level of consistency you don't often get. So enough stalling. This time we're going to be ranking every mission of Grand Theft Auto vice city from worst to best.
Big Thanks To My Doners

As someone who recently replayed the trilogy it's shocking how much easier missions are as an adult than they were then.
Did you replay the Definitive Edition? Because looking at this list, some of the missions when you have to go from point a to point b within a time limit are much easier because the gps now tells you the shortest way
Definitive Edition or original? Because Definitive is way easier.
Oh yeah for sure
Yeah noticed that too pretty sure they nerfed the difficulty in some of the missions, the driver, the shootist, even the zero rc missions were easy the cartel construction site was the most noticable tho they used to shred you in .2 secs
That mission where you had to impress the getaway driver is the bottom of my list. The rest of the game was fine back in the day, but that one was my roadblock. I only beat it because the police caused a pileup including myself and my opponent into an alleyway near the end. I just happened to get out of the alley for the AI could.
Still makes no sense if YOU can out drive your getaway driver, doesn't really make them a good driver for the job does it
@@christiankallio8586 And he proved himself totally useles during the heist 😂😂
I failed that race right at the very end so many times
Yeah I was only ever able to win via an exploit (stashing a Cheetah or Infernus to swap to somewhere near the start line)
I could have sworn the last time I beat that mission was only because I got lucky with the ai messing up.
There's this weird "do the top floor first" tip for Demolition Man going around and I never understood why. If anything, it makes the mission harder. Killing the guys before picking up the bombs is mostly placebo as well. The only trick to this mission is being over the age of 10 and learning the flying controls
ngl, last time, i did it on my own accord, and actually found it kind of easier
like saving "best for last"
You REALLY underestimate the mind of an old school GTA Player.... we saw that stairway and immediately thought "Jump it"
When the "worst" rated missions aren't that terrible, you know you're playing an absolute gem of a game
24:06 The drunk driving actually does attract police attention; you just have to be in the presence of an officer, which will then trigger a two-star wanted rating.
A fun fact about Back Alley Brawl is that you don't even need to "talk" to the Chef. You can just run him over with you car and the mission continues on no problem. Which is probably why the jury mission is in the game.
Didn't put Demolition Man on the bottom.Best video 10/10
That mission gets so much unwarranted hate. So f’cking easy
@@joshuatealeaveshonestly for me it was skill issue but now it's a cake walk
Pretty much goes the same with The wrong side of the track, people really need to know that it was easy
@@omarbarakaeden5608 except they're completely different. RC Heli mission is completely skill based, introduces you to a new mechanic and does it badly and at the wrong time. Damn train mission doesn't show you anything new, just uses previously shown stuff in a new context. Also one may argue that it requires luck along with skill.
@@p0werfu11 oh yeah I just realized that demolition man are the first flying mission in gta. That took a skill to get used with
The fact that getaway driver is not at the bottom of the list kind of irks me. I failed that mission a good 60 times. The rest of these missions only took me 1 to 3 attempts
naval engagement is way easier if you use an m60 and manually aim at the yachts to explode them, i beat it first try with a controller that way
Yeah, I don't remember ever having problems with that mission
I entirely disagree with Naval Engagement, if you keep the M60 upto that point destroying the boats is easy, and its all about skills take cover crouching improve accuracy and also many things such as wall to hide behind, and 4 star wanted level in VC is nothing compared to the one you get at SAM in GTA 3 whose cop AI is way worse, Love juice is easy with bike if you know how to accelerate (rather than just going forwards), bike reaches 300 x speed, VC might have cool missions but missions are tasks assigned to you, but thing about SA is the outstanding stuff you can do in free roam (like parachuting from top of mount chiliad, also side missions like burglary completing which by stealing $10,000 worth good you get infinite stamina + you can have fun robbing gang houses seeing them sleep with weapons on sofas and they attackl when they see you and you can fight back), at least VCS lets you swim in GTA VC. Still I love GTA VC since 2004. My worst mission is shakedown smashing windows is lame with time limit, As for my favorite mission its Rub Out taking out Diaz and taking over his mansion epic stuff!
Rub Out is awesome. And I agree with you, regarding Naval Engagement (heck, my brothers are good enough to win with the Ruger). Also, I met the actor who voiced Diaz (Luis Guzman), he’s really sweet!
Idk if many people know this but in Phnom Penh ’86 in the beginning of the mission as you are flying under the bridge if you look straight up you’ll see someone jump off the bridge and lands into the blade of the helicopter. I discovered it as a child but don’t know how widely known it is. Anyone else ever seen it?
Yeah, it's a worker from the company whose trucks you destroy in the mission "Riot." I think it's pretty well known.
I was surprised that you gave the driver mission more credit! I never like how the cops ONLY go after YOU! I'm hoping your next gta project will be Vice City Stories but we all know your next video project is taped under the phone.
Always a good day when TBP uploads.
I've played Vice City for all of these years and I'm just now noticing at 43:13, there's shadows in the cutscenes? For all characters? And they're like, good? This is crazy, how did I never see this before.
I have never met anyone that failed "Shakedown" even with its arbitrary timer. You could have mentioned one point and that being the mission start point being right outside Diaz's room right after the Rub Out mission ends. I've seen people forget to save and stuff because of that mission marker
These videos are so comforting to me. Lol
I have a lot of disagreements (in particular, I have Naval Engagement and Cop Land ranked much higher) but we both have Death Row ranked on top. Great video!
I've been waiting for this since you ranked all the missions from San Andreas.
I love this. You should do GTA 3 missions ranked next. Im curious about espresso 2 go's placement on your ranking
holy moly, best GTA ranked by TBP - prime content
In a cosmic sort of way, it's hilarious that this was uploaded as I'm playing through Vice City again myself.
#59 and 58 are always the missions I dread to do whenever I play this game
#57: This one's always iffy for me. If I can manage to get to the 2 closest cop bribes then the mission is simple from there. It's really down to RNG
#56: Having the outfit swap there in the mall makes this one a bit easier, even if its temporary.
#55: It's slow, but you can cheese this by driving to the fire station and keep the truck behind the fence. Pedestrians can still interact with the truck if you're close enough while the cops cant open the door to arrest you.
#54: This one's another case of RNG having a big case on how this mission pans out
#53: Ah yes, the mission that houses a good chunk of Vice City's memed quotes.
#52: I'll give the pizza guy this; his scooter skills are immaculate. He can go pretty fast if you alert him and aren't properly prepared for a chase or get bad luck with traffic.
#51: There's the line!
#50: You wouldn't label it as bad, but that won't stop me from hating this mission.
#47: "Dumb Florida moron..."
#45: "Call yourself a mang, mang?"
#37: This one, just as the description put says, isn't as bad as I remembered it to be. Doesn't mean my feelings towards it have softened though, I honestly think it should have been lower. Also, rip the original pc players of this game, this mission was badly glitched in that version.
#29: This mission was honestly like the midway point of a movie or a mid-season finale of a show. Kind of fitting that this is where it places.
#25: As someone who has failed this mission before; yeah, you fail if the mob reaches and taxes all your properties. I only lost because I had absurdly bad luck with traffic and kept crashing. I've also noticed some weird quirk/glitch: if the mob takes the center bridge leading to the golf course, there's a possibility that they fall through the bridge or spawn in a manner that causes them to fall into the water which means I either advance to the next group that spawns or pass the mission completely.
#19: Fun fact, the tank's message of protocol Delta Indie Echo is meant to spell out 'Die', obvious, but I found it funny.
#18: Was not expecting this one to be so high up.
#16: Not only is the paint job tacky, but the voice of the guy in it trying to be threatening adds to the cheese. Also, in a way, TBP cannot escape car combat.
#14: You forgot the high quality quotes: "Sniper on the roof! They fight like girls!" and "FIGHT LIKE MEN WITH HUGE COJONES!!"
#9 (Large): Would've figured this would be in the top 5 but I should know by now to expect the unexpected with these lists.
#8: Phnom Penh is actually the capitol of Cambodia, which was used as a Vietnamese military base during the Vietnam War.
#7: I can never forget this mission after watching the game freeze when DSP played this game and him going ballistic about it.
#3: This is the type of mission where it's hard to truly master, but it's a fun challenge and once you get the grip of it, you'll feel good about it
#2: Possibly one of the best combat segments in the game
#1: Not sure how I feel about this taking the top spot, not because it's a bad choice, but because it makes me ask myself "do I like this mission more than this one or that other one.
A list like this for GTA 3 and possibly the other games in the series feels likely, though this might just be because I'm playing through this game right now for my own channel, but I'm wondering if something like this would be possible for a series like Syphon Filter.
"Camstain" is devious lol
“I don’t need to be courageous, I have a gun.” Truer words were never spoken.
Who uses a car in cop land? Get the sparrow or any other heli if you don't have the sparrow yet. Fly in and park right next to the entrance closest to the bombsite (space on the grass at the side of the building). If you're quick you can run in, plant the bomb and get back in the heli before the rotors fully stop spinning. Then a nice easy eventless flight back to the mansion.
For Cop Land there is a Sparrow spawning nearby that you can take and just fly off safely back to the villa when the job is done
Fun fact: you don’t need the motorcycle to complete G-Spotlight, you can actually grab the Police Maverick from the nearby police station and fly through the checkpoints and it will still count…
Awesome video bro love your videos I love your twisted metal ranked videos 🥰
I wonder how many people think aiming is really hard on console just because PCSX2 sets your joystick sensitivity to 130% by default
Literally me in gta vice city stories, plus i noticed the mission timers move way too fast and the drive by is very op like they can dump a hole clip in seconds.
The latter problems i fixed with slowing down the emulation CPU to 50% but the sensitivity i thought i was just bad.
Wait, what? I just noticed that and it says in the option it's recommended for certain modern controllers. I play it on Steam Deck, do I need to set it to 100% for sensitivity to work properly?
@@ShadowMan64572 I'd say set it to 100% and if it doesn't feel extremely slow keep it at 100
I have ps2 physical copy, original gamepad and so on. Yeah the aiming sucks badly. That being said on pc you can mod the game so that it brings some ps2 visual effects, models from xbox version, and full and proper gamepad support which makes a game much better. But regardless shooting is the worst part of Vice City. Especialy when you compare it to awesome vehicle handling. In terms of shooting mechanics i think the best games in this genre of gta like games, can be found in Scarface, Watchdogs (you feel like John Wick), Mafia 3 and GTA IV. GTA V would be great in that regard, but super small health pool kinda forces you to use boring cover system too much, at least when using gamepad. San Andreas at first feels not great, but when you dig deeper into it, even if the guns luck a bit of kick, it's actually decent, with a good layer of tactical approach to it. Driver 3 was aiming for a proper system but they left it half baked, with barbone animations that feel like placeholder instead of actual finished ones.
To be fair, there is a reason for that. PlayStation controllers from the PS1 to PS3 had sticks that had _square_ ranges of input; a stick in the upper-left corner for instance was considered simultaneously as far left and as far up as possible rather than somewhere in-between the two directions.
So, they need to do _something_ to let you be able to hit the corners of the square with modern controllers, otherwise there could be problems where for instance you may not be able to run full-speed on diagonals. Though PPSSPP has a better solution for this problem; with a toggle it remaps the input to a square without touching overall sensitivity.
I believe other older controllers did this too, but I'm unaware of any confirmed examples. I know there's actually a _newer_ controller that does this; Retro-Bit's Saturn Pro Controller has sticks with square ranges of input.
Gun Runner ranks near the bottom for me because of the infinitely respawning enemies and how easy it is to die. Also Death Row because you have drive all the way across the map with a time limit and you can get ambushed from every corner with the toughest enemies in the game AND once you reach Lance it turns into a fucking escort mission to make things worse and Lance seems determined to run into gunfire every chance he gets.
My favorite GTA of all time... A little unfinished, but it has a lot of heart. 💜
Amazing video so well put together
Can you do Bully missions from worst to best?
i can agree with all the list and rankings besides two: bombs away being that high and bombs away scoring higher than phnom pehn 86
dodo dodo was a better structured mission and i can understand the novelty (and that you're a planefan), but the plane controls could very much have a sensitivity slider, since they are so touchy it makes the whole experience annoying. but what makes it miserable is definetly the camera taking away any ounce of precision. and it's coming from multiple playthroughs between the ps2 and the original pc version.
overall great list, and the rc copter on demolition man isn't that hard as people use to tell it is (it is easy even on the mobile version with the atrocious touch controls), you just need to take time to feel the helis controls, since contrary to the planes they aren't as reliant on speed.
Good video. It's funny, I've seen some lists where the RC missions were on the bottom!
Dam dude this video probably took a while huh? I love the hard work dude
GTA 4 next?😅
They're barely diverse
@@imdebaws3715Makes the ranking that much interesting
1:55 YAY! I got noticed! No this isn't gonna totally inflate my ego... much :D
I doubt you'll ever do this with the one of the first two gamess, but I look forward to It If you consider It.
are you going to do ranking GTA 3 missions? I'm just asking.
This guy is insane. He put the hardest missions as his tops. Fucking Death Row number 1?!
I feel like the point of the Shootist mission is to prove to phil that you're not just a guy with a big ego who thinks he can shoot
2:11 I love how you can go for a "special dance," in the Pole club, but then Tommy just stares morosely at the floor. Maybe he's reflecting on all the love he could have made while he was in prison during 'Nam. Nasty business
Right now I’m playing VC for the first time in my life. It’s funny how some perceive its missions as scripted A->B straight lines, similar to GTA 5 cinematic approach, whereas oldschool GTA was more like sandboxes. Like why would you try so hard to go through the 5-star chase in Cop Land when you can simply jump in a non-police car and head straight to the Pay’n’Spray located nearby?
The Driver
Hillary gets a fast car
You get a slow one
One mistake and the run is over
Doesn't even drive you to the bank for the hiest and gets killed, making "The Driver" mission pointless.
GTA V although I still like it , I felt it tried to please the fans of the 3D universe
remember in GTA SA Cj breaks into a mlitary base and steal a jetpack? in GTA V you can steal a jet from the army or the RPG elements like Lung Capacity and Stamina
also Trevor would have fit well in any 3D gta game
25:24 if that happens to be one of my favourite three days grace songs
By the way i think the mission name copland is a reference to the movie copland which starred ray liotta who was tommy vercettis voice actor!
In the beginning & an old friend shouldn't have been counted as missions considering there is barely any input to give in those missions
One thing to note on the rankings, especially the lower end I feel, is that there is an optimal way to do them and a sub-optimal way. Likewise a mission like The Driver has no real way to do it differently than intended so I feel that something as difficult as that one should be lower while ones like Navel Engagement and Shakedown are a bit unjustly low due to them being done in a very "straight-forward", no pre planned way.
Honey wake up, he's posted a GTA game again!
24:35 this mission funnily enough also gives the other bikers a way faster bike you'll see this for yourself if you steal one of them
Funfact: in remaster/definitive edition (mobile) Love juice and Naval engagement are fixed so Cop land is by far the worst mission in the game. In mobile edition it is close to impossible to do it in the way intended.
I shot Hilary King’s tires out back in the day. That was the only way to beat him for me at 13.
Just remember whenever u feel sad tbp just remember u entertain a lot of people
bro makes a living playing Vice City. He's obviously never sad
In my opinion, Martha's Mug Shot is the best mission to me. Why?
The cutscene is the reason why. Candy Suxxx is still my favorite GTA character.
25:01 - "It's a mission with a Ph level of absolute zero."
So... it's extremely acidic? I... don't think I understand.
I'll admit, I misspoke. I only half remembered the science behind pH levels.
@@TBP Fair! I was wondering if it was a reference I didn't know, or some roundabout allusion to car battery acid being Ph 0 😂
Shakedown is such a fun mission I don't understand your low rating tbh
Naval engagement is way easier if you get an rpg
8:50 oh so it's like that one mission in Sonic Adventure 2 where Rouge being cocky as fuck is the only reason the player is given a stricter time limit.
Nice, always a good way to annoy the players with a needless detail.
The mission cap the collector doesn't even need a lot of travelling. If you have the boatyard, the 1st group will go there, you go there and kill them. After that remaining groups will also drive to the boatyard, so you don't have to go anywhere, just wait at the boatyard.
The mission waste the wife becomes much easier if you use comet.
For the mission four iron, if you do it after treacherous swine, you should have chainsaw, which makes this mission way easier
The funny thing about Gang Wars, Am I Right is that you can just completely bypass the fight by going into an adjacent alley with a line of sight on your target and picking him off with a sniper rifle or AR, then driving away. You don't need to kill anyone else
The Driver can eat my ass, I hated that damn mission so much cus im ass at racing, cant remember if I spawned a bunch of tanks for him to crash into or just ran him off the road but ive never done that mission honestly once.
cop land is easy i think
shake down is the eziest mission if you use uzi
the boat challege is harder than checkpoint charlie
the job should be on two number its soo good
I'm a simple man, the bacon dude posts and I fall asleep to his new video, followed by another, and another, and another
I'm about to go to bed, I went into RUclips and boy oh boy guess who was at the top of my algorithm
See you guys tomorrow🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣
Finally someone who appreciates Bombs Away and Demolition Man a bit...
i love those two a lot (probably mainly because i'm a fan of every machine that flies) and i've been listening about how they are awful for almost my whole life
I'm currently on my first playthrough, specifically the original PS2 version, and while I am struggling in a lot of areas, I'm still having fun here and there.
I failed Trojan Voodoo like 10 times before noticing the steps on my 11th attempt before failing again, I think this annoyance could of been avoided if the steps were shown in the establishing shots.
Somehow im thinking that you would rate these missions differently if played on the pc
Glad I'm not the only one who absolutely loves Loose Ends. My favourite Vice City mission.
Finally someone to not shit on demolition man because of the skill issue
Yet puts naval engagement, love juice, cop land, shakedown and juju scramble low over skill issue :>
Still good video though
15:37 I realize Max Payne 3 starts like this, too
41:12 See the head on the floor on the right?
40:21
Well, Libertarians have been saying that “Taxation is Theft” so it doesn’t surprise me that the word tax is a synonym for theft in slang
I wish your SA missions video hits million views
I got nothing to say beide that the Driver mision i by far the worst mission for me and still his to this day see that hight rather the below list baffle me but hey it your opinion agree or Disagre I respect that
Oh trust me, I was fully prepared to put it bottom five. I even had an entry preemptively written in that spirit. But I'd be lying if I said the mission didn't surprise me.
Me too, i could never beat the driver took me 100 times. Then when i was older i did it first try
The mission structure was weird in this game.
I think a lot of us will agree that "Naval Engagement" design is crap, and became even worst if do as developers intended and take the Landstalker as our getaway vehicle, also "Keep Your Friends Close" takes place inside the Vercetti State as a reference to Scarface.
I just 100% the game and got all but the very last trophy today. I love vice city.
Use Brown Thunder for Cannoli
Ain't no way Dodo should be that high. The seaplane handles like ass
What i hate about the driver mission is 1. It's unfair that Hilary drives Sabre turbo while you have to drive Sentinel and 2. Hilarys drive route is programed to be that way, he can go right through cara and stuff which doesnt make sense
More Vice City content ❤
Juju Scramble got robbed.
I dont get it man,why do you not play with mouse + keyboard ?
Like yeah i get it you cant (Legally) get the non "Definitive" edition of the game... but its not like anyones gonna snitch on you.
Just like everyone, putting Naval Engagement down low is criminal. Donning the M60 make this mission infinitely easier. You are free to use the Kruger or the M16, but only if you are a sadist. And if you know how to aim with the analog sticks on the console versions, it's a bit of a thrill. On PC with mouse aim, it's extremely trivial.
A thrill for some that only has like one optimal solution is a needless pain in the ass for the grand majority of others I'd say.
I am speed.
Excellent video. Hopefully we get GTA3 to complete the trilogy. GTA3 had some notoriously bad missions
Haven't clicked a video so fast in a long time.
Neat.
Wut? I never noticed the mistake with the missing arm of Phil Cassidy !
It is correct to say Vice City is the best in the "GTA" series
Notification gang 🎉
2 puddings 3 sausage regular chips salt and vinegar mild curry peas gravy small
"Shakedown" is 10x easier (and more fun) if you drive a motorcycle into the mall and do a drive-by instead of running around on foot like that. Also an M80 machine gun is best for "Naval Engagement." Or any weapon that blows up their boats the quickest.
Idk why but i was so creative in this game and cheesed every annoying mission with a helicopter or a tank🙃
What aboutr Vice City Tightened mod?
I hate Death row. I feel too much stress during the Lance heath is ticking
Back Alley Brawl ranked above Cop Land is quite the skill issue
Aaagh c'mon, Naval Engagement is easy as hell if you pick up a rocket launcher from Hooker Inn and shoot the boats with it
I wrote a script on this for myself years ago to turn into a video. Although I never ended up making it.
Same tbh. I'm kinda glad I didn't.
