Revision as of 20:26, 1 April 2011

The courier challenge at Roboi's Food Mart is basically a mission entered by getting on the BMX bike there, that once completed has given you a large monetary earning and an Asset available to make money over time.

General: When you get on the bike you'll start the challenge and will have to speed around the map to various locations where you'll find a large floating corona. You will then need to throw a package into the corona. You do this by holding L1 or R2 to drive by, then hitting L1 or Circle. If the package goes through the corona, move onto the next one. If you miss you can drive over it to pick it back up. You will need to get through 4 levels of deliveries before your time runs out.

Note that the BMX will ONLY be found in the Commerce location; you will not find one in the Mulholland location.

-Note if you drop a package and move on, the next package dropped will remove the previous one from the map. In other words, dropped packages are either picked up immediately or lost.

The Mission Itself: Upon getting on the BMX you'll start the mission. You now have 6 items and must deliver to 3 of the coronas. Drive to those locations marked with a yellow blip on the radar and drive-by them to drop the package. Once they're all done, try to keep your remaining items as you'll be rewarded for them. Head back to Roboi's Food Mart where you'll start the next level and pick up more items. This time you need to deliver 4. Continue doing this and work your way through the levels. On the final level you'll need to deliver 6 items, however they are literally all over Los Santos, from one end to the other, so you need to pedal pretty fast to get there and back in time.

-Note: Falling/getting off of the bike will result in 20 seconds allotted to return to the bike. Not returning in sufficient time will end the mission, and every second that you are back on the bike after falling, the timer will gain one second until it reaches 20 again. Ex: Falling/getting off of the bike 4 times in immediate succession will end the mission.

Tip: With at least a slightly upgraded bike skill, and pausing to check the map before tackling the coronas, the mission will be very easy and very rewarding to both those who just started the game, and those who have already progressed through all of the cities.

Mission Layout

  • Level 1 - Items Held: 6 | Deliver 3 Packages Time given: Approx. 2m:30s
  • Level 2 - Items Held: 6 | Deliver 4 Packages Time given: 5:00 minutes
  • Level 3 - Items Held: 7 | Deliver 5 Packages Time given: 5:00 minutes
  • Level 4 - Items Held: 8 | Deliver 6 Packages Time given: 10:00 minutes

Reward:

  • Money Earned On Deliveries

-For each level it is based upon time left plus items held. Bonus for maximum-items-held at the end of each level is thus:

  1. $300 for a total of around $1000.
  2. $200 for a total of around $2300.
  3. $200 for a total of around $5700.
  4. $200 for a total of around $4300?

It is estimated that the missions can be worth around $15,000.

(As you can see, each package left is worth $100.)

  • Roboi's Food Mart has been Acquired as an Asset.

Accumulation as an Asset: The Food Mart will accumulate like all assets, and will accumulate up to $2000 over time.
