This is the fourth and final mission given to you by Vlad. It's the first to give you a choice of killing or sparing, using ladders, and jumping. The mission starts by Vlad telling Niko that Ivan has upset Mikhail and wants you to kill him. He's making Ivan rob Roman's Cab Depot and wants you to kill so it seems like it's in defense. When you drive there Ivan is already leaving and speeding away so you have to chase him. Some time later he gets out of his car and tries to run away up a construcion site. When he gets on top he jumps from building to building and when reaches his final one he falls and is hanging onto the catwalk. This gives the player the choice of either killing Ivan or letting him live. If you let him live then he'll come back as a random charcter.

'''Ivan the Not So Terrible''' is a mission in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] given to [[protagonist]] [[Niko Bellic]] by [[Vladimir Glebov]] from [[Comrades Bar]] in [[Hove Beach]], [[Broker]], [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]]..
 
== Mission ==
[[Niko Bellic]] enters [[Comrades Bar]], where [[Vladimir Glebov]] waits for him. He tells Niko that there is a man he wants dead, [[Ivan Bytchkov]], and has set him up by telling him to rob [[Roman Bellic]] from his [[Express Car Service|cab depot]], where Niko has to go and kill him.
 
As Niko leaves Comrades, he drives a car over to the cab depot. As he reaches the building, Ivan flees in his [[Ruiner]]. Niko must chase Ivan around the Hove Beach area. After a short chase, Ivan reaches a dead end at a construction site. He climbs up a ladder and onto the scaffold. The player must now climb up some ladders while pursuing Ivan. Ivan runs up a stair case and climbs onto a crane. As Niko climbs up a crane ladder, Ivan runs along the crane and jumps onto a roof. Niko continues following. Jumping from rooftop to rooftop.
 
Ivan reaches one last roof and runs across a catwalk in a rush. Ivan goes to run down the fire escape but it is broken. He takes one step too far and falls. He clings on to the ledge, dangling helplessly. Ivan tries to reason with Niko as much as he can, pleading him to help him up. The player must now choose to kill or spare Ivan.
 
If the player chooses to kill Ivan, Niko reminds Ivan that he made a promise to Vlad to deal with him and stomps on Ivan's fingers, sending him crashing to his death on the footpath below.
 
If the player chooses to spare Ivan, Niko will pull him to safety. Niko then tells Ivan to get out of Hove Beach. Ivan promises to leave and then thanks Niko, calling him a "good man". He then runs away.
 
No matter what choice you make, Niko will call Vlad and tell him that he dealt with Ivan and that he will not see him anymore.

Ivan the Not So Terrible is a mission in Grand Theft Auto IV given to protagonist Niko Bellic by Vladimir Glebov from Comrades Bar in Hove Beach, Broker, Liberty City..

Mission

Niko Bellic enters Comrades Bar, where Vladimir Glebov waits for him. He tells Niko that there is a man he wants dead, Ivan Bytchkov, and has set him up by telling him to rob Roman Bellic from his cab depot, where Niko has to go and kill him.

As Niko leaves Comrades, he drives a car over to the cab depot. As he reaches the building, Ivan flees in his Ruiner. Niko must chase Ivan around the Hove Beach area. After a short chase, Ivan reaches a dead end at a construction site. He climbs up a ladder and onto the scaffold. The player must now climb up some ladders while pursuing Ivan. Ivan runs up a stair case and climbs onto a crane. As Niko climbs up a crane ladder, Ivan runs along the crane and jumps onto a roof. Niko continues following. Jumping from rooftop to rooftop.

Ivan reaches one last roof and runs across a catwalk in a rush. Ivan goes to run down the fire escape but it is broken. He takes one step too far and falls. He clings on to the ledge, dangling helplessly. Ivan tries to reason with Niko as much as he can, pleading him to help him up. The player must now choose to kill or spare Ivan.

If the player chooses to kill Ivan, Niko reminds Ivan that he made a promise to Vlad to deal with him and stomps on Ivan's fingers, sending him crashing to his death on the footpath below.

If the player chooses to spare Ivan, Niko will pull him to safety. Niko then tells Ivan to get out of Hove Beach. Ivan promises to leave and then thanks Niko, calling him a "good man". He then runs away.

No matter what choice you make, Niko will call Vlad and tell him that he dealt with Ivan and that he will not see him anymore.

Reward

The player gets $200. In addition, if the player decides to spare Ivan's life, he will become a random character later in the game.
