The players begin in [[Algonquin]] with two black [[Rebla]] | '''Bomb Da Base II''' is an online [[Multiplayer in GTA IV|multiplayer]] mission in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. The title is a homage to the [[Grand Theft Auto III]] mission called "[[Bomb Da Base Act II]]". | ||
Players | The mode begins with a [[cutscene]] in which [[Konstantin Petrovic|Kenny Petrovic]] explains how another gang (the [[Albanians]]) is shipping stolen cars out of the country by boat without his permission, mentioning that this highly profitable "business" was his only source of income when he first arrived in America. After the cutscene ends, the players have to work together in order to bomb the ship which is smuggling the stolen cars. | ||
== Missions == | |||
=== Retrieving the explosives === | |||
The players begin in [[Algonquin]] with two black [[Rebla]] SUVs (modified) parked nearby. Players must first find and steal a [[Securicar]] containing the bombs. Players must chase down and shoot at it to stop it and its 2 support SUVs that protect it. The guards wear green jackets. Once obtained, players must then drive it to a helipad. Another cutscene will show another Petrovic gang member landing a [[Maverick]] helicopter and telling the players that they may need it as transport and for the purpose of fighting from the air. | |||
=== Heading to the Platypus and placing the explosives === | |||
Players may fly the helicopter to the boat, the [[Platypus]], although they can actually take any means of transportation available. When the helicopter lands, or the players arrive at the ship in anyway, two waypoints appear on the map - this is where the bombs are to be placed. | |||
The players have to make their way to the top of the boat in the control room and also underneath the deck in the cargo hold to plan the 2 bombs. Both are accessed through the ship's galley (kitchen). Quite a few Albanians will attempt to stop them from planting the bombs and players must retaliate or die. If three or all players are killed, the mission fails. | The players have to make their way to the top of the boat in the control room and also underneath the deck in the cargo hold to plan the 2 bombs.

Players will each then get a share of $4500 to add to your rank. The mission is complete. | Each player receives $100 for each enemy they kill.

* There is a bug that causes the screen to go black and force them back into single player whenever players attempt to appoach the boat. This glitch happens whenever a player JOINS or LEAVES a game that has already started. Most experienced players know this, so to avoid this glitch, try playing only with a full team of 4 players so people cannot join after starting; don't start a game with 3 or less. Also, try to play with people ranked 5 and up or friends to avoid people that will leave a game. | * There is a bug that causes the screen to go black and force them back into single player whenever players attempt to appoach the boat.

* There is a very rare glitch that makes an NPC completely invisible, though the player can still see their gunfire and their reticule health and can still target them with auto-aim. Unfortunately, Bomb Da Base II is where it happens the most, specifically in the ship's lounge or right outside on the paths leading to the bomb spots. If auto-aim is turned off, it is very difficult to fight them. It is best to either blind fire or use grenades against them. | |||
