I’m not sure I even knew you could tow things with the tractors in San Andreas.

116

u/OregonGreen242 14h ago

I had no idea either!

144

u/jessi_ani 11h ago

and whats amazing is that towing a police car doesnt raise the wanted level. its just a normal Tuesday for the cops to be randomly towed and thrown in the sea

u/FFKonoko 9h ago

Gotta be REAL careful not to ding their bumper though.

u/BenderRodriguez14 8h ago

San Andreas cops: Aww shit, here we go again.

u/Healthy-Reserve-1333 14h ago

I used to try and make tractor trains by towing tractors behind each other.

It was the best of days.

Edit: on PC. Other versions YMMV

u/Ikatarion 14h ago

And then try to drive up Mt Chiliad

u/Healthy-Reserve-1333 12h ago

Oh man. The memories. I still have my original San Andreas which came with a whole guide book

Even better when you’d make a sharp turn and the physics engine would go wonky and yeet the car

u/WellyRuru 8h ago

Yeah i remeber this. The more you hooked up the wilder it got

u/TheWard 6h ago

Can confirm you could on PS2 because I would spend hours making tractor trains.

9

u/Happy-Fun-Ball 12h ago

Well, it was towed outside the environment.

6

u/Hotlinegogo 9h ago

Yeah, and you can tow other tractors, making a tractor train!

3

u/Bebo991_Gaming 11h ago

I used to make a train out of them and they would be so long they would whiplash and cause frame drops

u/Sarik704 7h ago

You can tow the plane if your careful

u/Checho-73 10h ago

You can also use a tractor to tow a farm trailer

I've played this game for literal years of my life.

Today I discovered that you can hitch stuff up to a tractor.

Another thing people might not know is that the Leviathan (the big helicopter) can land on water

u/kevymetal87 7h ago

Did not know this

u/MourningWallaby 8h ago

the baggage cars at the airport can also tow the baggage trailers!

2

u/strawberrycreamdrpep 4h ago

You can also articulate the dump truck, and the car transport. You can even manually load 4 cars yourself onto the car transport, moving the ramp from the top shelf to the bottom shelf.

u/Avalonians 12h ago

Modern internet be like

"Disclaimer: I don't support or condone towing manned police vehicles with a tractor and dropping them from a pier after officers remained inactive after witnessing an obvious act of aggression enacted against a person of color."

13

u/JustThisGuyYouKnow42 11h ago

Well, at least the reaction of the police officers is realistic then.

8

u/klezart 9h ago

I dunno, they didn't get out to join in beating the minority, not very realistic

4

u/mybluecathasballs 9h ago

To Kids: Do not do drugs. Drugs are NOT cool and they will not make you cool. Just be yourself and be true to yourself. I know, it sounds lame now, but this is the honest truth.

Or go do drugs. Im just a random person on the internet. But seriously, don't do drugs.

1

u/Professional-Box4153 5h ago

Not what I expected. I thought they were showing the black dude getting smacked around with the cops doing nothing. I then expected the guy playing the black dude to throw a punch, with the cops jumping out, guns blazing.

-1

u/ReverieMetherlence 9h ago

>after witnessing an obvious act of aggression enacted against a person of color

Said person of color just stole the tractor of the aggressor though.

1

u/JustThisGuyYouKnow42 9h ago

🤣 Yeah, maybe nor so realistic after all then!

u/Avalonians 8h ago

They're future seeing circular logic using cops then

5

u/clckwrks 14h ago

You punched that NPC first didn’t you

11

u/ikonfedera 13h ago

Apparently if you're ugly, the NPC will throw insults at you, and CJ insults them back. It sometimes provokes the NPC to attack.

3

u/raspberryharbour 8h ago

How did Rockstar know I'm ugly?

u/ikonfedera 6h ago

You're paying virtual money to video game prostitutes.

Not just virtual money!

u/ikonfedera 5h ago

iirc SA hoes take only that game's currency. or a bat to the head.

2

u/Malagate3 9h ago

To be fair, if someone tried to replicate this, it would involve standing in front of a police car - and I think American police are already suspicious of pedestrians, so they'd likely be shot before they even got back to their tractor.

25

u/IKenDoThisAllDay 14h ago

This is not the direction I thought it was going to go.

I thought he was gonna stand there and let the guy punch him over and over, while the cops just blankly stared and did nothing, then he'd punch the guy once and they'd immediately get out and gun him down.

That would've been pretty funny.

Yep. Best one. Period. I was super disappointed when GTA4 came out. Yeah it's realistic and people fall funny. But where variety and customization?

I miss when GTA games were stupid and not realistic.

My favorite thing to do would be to max out respect, use a code that allows you to recruit anyone, fill a bus with people, find a tall parking ramp, order everyone to follow you then jump off. It was so funny seeing everyone fall after you!

Lol, I used to break gta 5 servers by getting the cops to get to fight the cops.. basically I blocked off the highway up top near one of the small diner or whatever they are and forced the traffic onto the small parking lot and if there were cops in there try and get them to run over another cop. A dying summoned some more as well as the cop fighting and before you know it all out cop war and the server said poof xD
