Crash! is a minigame and a side mission in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories.
Description
Crash! is a minigame in which Victor Vance must cause as much damage to vehicles in a period of time. The player can access the pastime, by entering the Coach parked at Interglobal Films studio on Prawn Island. The pastime becomes unlocked after the mission Accidents Will Happen for Reni Wassulmaier. During the side mission, the player will have to score over $2,000 of damage in three minutes to pass the challenge. Points are received for the following collision types: bike dismount, car spun, car flipped, car sunk, destroyed car, and Knock On. A Knock On is when a vehicle is knocked into one or more vehicles. This gives the player a multiplier equal to the number of cars in the pileup. The best way to complete this challenge is to crash into vehicles up the long stretch of road on the Vice City Mainland. Whenever the challenge is repeated, the previous record must be beaten.
Rewards
Once the challenge is completed for the first time, the player is awarded $1,000. Every other time the challenge is passed, the player gets only $250.
Oversights
Damage incurred to vehicles is not always calculated correctly. Rolls are sometimes not registered. A vehicle that is rolled and subsequently destroyed will not reward the $300 damage or show the '$300 Vehicle Destroyed!' message.
Cops attempting to bust Vic directly after he has boarded the Coach and triggered the start of this mission will board the Coach normally. The player will start the mission unable to control the vehicle, and after a few seconds both the cop and Vic will exit the Coach. Vic will be arrested, and the mission is thereby failed.
