'''The Shootist''' is a mission in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]] which the [[protagonist]] [[Tommy Vercetti]] does independently in the [[Malibu Club]] in [[Vice Point]].
'''The Shootist''' is a mission in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]] given to [[protagonist]] [[Tommy Vercetti]] for the [[Malibu Club]] in [[Vice Point]], [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]] as an [[Assets|asset]] mission.


==Overview==
== Mission ==
Tommy wants a stickup man for the job. [[Cam Jones]] recommends [[Phil Cassidy]] as he considers him to be one of the best shooter in town. Tommy heads to [[Downtown Vice City|Downtown]] to a [[Ammu-Nation Shooting Range (GTA VC)|shooting range]] to meet Phil. Phil will only join Tommy if Tommy can prove himself that he can handle a gun.
[[Tommy Vercetti]], having [[No Escape?|recruited]] a safe cracker for his planned [[El Banco Corrupto Grande|bank]] [[The Job|robbery]], informs [[Ken Rosenberg]] and [[Cam Jones]] that he needs somebody who knows how to use a gun. Jones recommends gun runner [[Phil Cassidy]], saying he is the best in the [[Vice City in GTA III Era|city]]. Vercetti follows Jones' recommendation and meets Cassidy at a [[Ammu-Nation Shooting Range (GTA VC)|shooting range]] at the [[Ammu-Nation]] store in [[Downtown Vice City|Downtown]].


==Walkthrough==
Vercetti offers Cassidy a place on his team, although Cassidy responds that he would only join if Vercetti can prove himself with firearms. Vercetti then takes part in a shooting range challenge, initially involving Cassidy and an un-named citizen. Vercetti first shoots at three dumies suspended from the ceilings, moving left to right, shooting at the dummy to break parts off. Vercetti then enters a second and third phase where he walks through a series of indoor streets and shoots cardboard frames holding guns in windows and doorways, as well as ones that appear in front of him.
The object is to get a total score of 60 points or more in three rounds of a shooting range.  


In the first round, there will be three dummies hanging from the ceiling and moving from left to right. The closest dummy is worth one point, the middle is two points, and the farthest is worth three points. The player should aim for the middle and farthest dummies more than the closest one, since they can get you points faster, and you do not waste your ammo on the one point dummy.
Vercetti, having acquired a total of at least sixty points during the three challenges, successfully persuades Cassidy to join him as his gun man for the bank robbery.


You have a two minute time limit in the first round, but there is no need to rush. If you aim for the two and three point dummies, there is no reason why you should not get 40 or more points, provided you do not rush and waste your ammo. In order to make it easier to hit the two and three point dummies, shoot all parts of the one point dummy except for the head. This will make it easier to hit the farther targets since the body of the first dummy is not blocking it.
== Script ==
'''Tommy Vercetti''': We need a stick up man. You know one?


In the second and third rounds, dummies of people holding guns will appear in windows, doorways and in front of you. All dummies are worth one point. You have a one minute time limit, but again, remain calm and patient, and you can easily top 60 points. Make sure that you do not waste your ammo, and take your time because one minute is enough time for you to win. If you follow these steps, you could have 60 points by the end of the second round and not even need to take the third round seriously.
'''Ken Rosenberg''': Hey, Tommy, Tommy, Tommy. This stuff keeps you sharp, man. WooOOOooo! I could be your stick up man! Stick 'em up! Stick 'em up!
