Campaigns/Missions & Other SPOILER Questions.

Well, I mentioned that with John some posts before. I'm confused about this, too. Especially because Nick said, that he talked to John before, what he didn't do, as you said.
John seems to be an old friend of Nick and a mechanic who built his ramp truck and this special truck you have to use for solving the mission.
(USA Trucker will look at this, maybe he finds out something...)

To the police:
Nick's wheel spider obviously had his finger prints on it. Jack Murdoc (Nick won a race for information against him.) was killed with this wheel spider. But Nick lent this thing to Crane.
(Later outside the police station Crance says, that he lent it to Matthew.)
Now Nick is the suspect because of his finger prints. Dakota was an unknown man until this moment. He is introduced later to Nick by calling and then meeting him in Oxnard. Dakota works for the state. That's why he acted concealed in the beginning until Nick meets him. He seems to be an undercover agent or something like that. Because Nick is an important person for Dakota and his case he contacts Nick and takes him out of the police station, no matter how he achieved that.

If I don´t have the Journal, I would ask till today "Why Nick is free? What happened?"... because of that missing cutscene. A scene like "Mr Armstrong, a man named Dakota called and *Blablabla*, you can go." would answer this question.

I think anyway, that SoftLab didn´t think so much about cutscenes. The scene, where Matthew got shot by the rocket was too fast. How about "MATTHEW! NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"? (Hey, it´s a criminal-story!)

And: Nick, John and Dakota doesn´t know, how the fortress looks like. So, how could they make a plan to rescue Crane and Dorothy? (MISSING CUTSCENE!!!

)

I really like the story (For a simulation) and I don´t want to bash RnR. But there are several logical problems in the story, just because of the cutscenes.

Of course you can say now "Cutscenes, cutscenes, cutscenes, just play the game and don´t get on our nerves with your cutscenes!!!", but good cutscenes are very important for me. If there are some information, that were important for the story and you don´t get them because of missing/bad cutscenes...

I answered your question in the other spoiler alert thread on the main R'n'R forum page HERE.

WARNING, SPOILER INSIDE

Hi there,
at a certain point I get a call from *a mate* (I don't remember his name) asking me to rescue his girl waiting in a Motel near Oxnard.
After I pick up her, I get chased by two guys with a gun and if I try to escape, my truck explodes (with a couple of gun bullets only, let alone their weird sound effect? LOL) and the game ends.
What should I do? Of course I WON'T restart the whole story from scratch just because it's not clear what should one do, in this case I'll sell it ASAP.

Thanks in advance.

p.s
I don't know if this is the RIGHT thread, so sorry for double-posting.

Hello, and welcome to the forum.

Please don't make duplicate postings, and don't discuss "Story-Lines & Side Missions" outside of the "SPOILER ALERT" threads. The forum is easily readable with stickies. View them before you post. Not after-wards.

The answer to your question is Here. Look at the 3rd video walk-through.

Hi.
thanks for your answer, I realized that this was the right thread too late.

Anyway, unfortunately the truck explodes about 10 seconds after the cutscene, and I can barely arrive at 50MPH before exploding, while in the video I see that the truck can arrive at 80MPH. It's unbelievable...
It seems that my truck needs more juice, but the game AI SHOULD know that and shouldn't show me this mission, because I have NO chance to escape but I still don't know it!
What should I do? any way to edit the savegame, any game trainer that gives you "unlimited life" meanwhile you try to escape?
