Introduction % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% /-----------------------------\ < III. Red Balloon Directions > \-----------------------------/ (Note: The following directions start after you return to your barracks at Fort Baxter with the package and can save for the first time. If for some reason you completed some missions and are no longer able to enter through the front gates of the Fort you can still enter it by making your way over the wall on the East side of the Fort.) --------------- Red Balloon #01 --------------- A. Take the Pistol inside your Barracks and then exit your Barracks. B. As you exit your Barracks go to the back (South) side of your barracks and look to your left (East). C. You should see in front of you the 1st Red Balloon under the South side of the guard tower at the corner of the Fort. D. Walk closer towards the guard tower and then use Manual Aim with your Pistol by Holding R1 + push L3 (the Left Analog Stick). E. Use the Left Analog Stick to aim and then shoot (Circle) the 1st Balloon. --------------- Red Balloon #02 --------------- A. You will now want to proceed to beat up one to three of the soldiers that you find inside this Fort to take their M16's (three seems to be about the limit before you start getting shot at). B. After you have the M16 head to the Guard house/building at the front gates of this Fort. C. Face to the North from it and you should see a Patriot (Humvee) parked near a garage to the left (West). D. Go over to the center of the garage just to the left (South) of the garage that Patriot is parked in front of. E. Face away from the garage and take about three to five steps away (East) from this garage. F. Face to the North and use Manual Aim with the M16. G. Look at the roof of the building in front of you to see two satellite dishes and hopefully you can see the 2nd Red Balloon you can shoot with the M16 or at least the top edge of it in front of the lower half/part of the tower between those two dishes (if the top of it is still showing you can still pop it just takes some good aiming). H. If you are unable to pop it in one shot just move yourself as close towards that building as you can while still being able to see the balloon with manual aim to try again until you pop it. --------------- Red Balloon #03 --------------- A. Now you will need to go out and acquire a PCJ600 and then return to Fort Baxter (the closest one to get is the one near the garages at the Southern end of the Apartment buildings of Eastern Vice Port or you can go to the Eastern most house on Starfish Island to find one). B. Leave through the front Gates of Fort Baxter turn left (East) onto the street here and follow this street as it curves to the right (South) up ahead. C. Turn left (East) at the end of this street up ahead and then follow this street as it curves around to the right (South). D. Turn right (West) at the first street you come to and then turn right (North) into the entrance/opening into the Terminal C area to your right. E. As you enter you should see a runway in front of you. F. Follow this runway as it makes it's way around the Terminal C building and when it ends look to the left (Southwest) to see a small staircase you can use to jump up onto the roof of the shorter building here. G. After you land on the roof of this building get off the PCJ and look up to the left (Southeast) to see the 3rd Red Balloon just under the overhanging roof. H. Now move close enough to it that you can manually aim at it with your Pistol to shoot it. --------------- Red Balloon #04 --------------- A. Now get back on the PCJ and drop down to the street to the West and turn left (South) onto it. B. Follow this street as it curves to the left (East) up ahead and then turn right (South) onto the first street you come to. C. Follow this street as it curves to the left and then get off the PCJ once are near the Eastern Entrance of the Airport. D. Walk over to the entrance and don't bother walking through the metal detector. E. Use manual aim with the M16 to shoot the 4th Red Balloon that is under the escalator to the Southeast through the archway of the Metal detector (if done right you without any cops around you shouldn't get a wanted level star). --------------- Red Balloon #05 --------------- A. Get back onto the PCJ (be sure to pick up your weapons near the door of the airport if you went into it) and get back onto the PCJ to follow this street until it ends up ahead. B. Turn right (East) when it ends and then turn right (South) into the entrance of the Tarmac area (where the planes are parked) you see up ahead. C. As you enter go straight South and you should come to a runway and at the end of the runway to your left (East) you should see the 5th Red Ballon you can shoot with your Pistol under the higher part of the higher inclined ramp. --------------- Red Balloon #06 --------------- A. Now go Southwest along this runway you are on until you see a helipad to your left (a rather large square platform). B. Drive around to the Southeast corner of this helipad and then drive straight Southeast from this corner of the helipad until you go under a metal awning near the building in front of you. C. Get off the PCJ and look up to the South to see the 6th Red Balloon you can shoot with your Pistol at the corner of this metal awning. --------------- Red Balloon #07 --------------- A. Look to the Northeast and you should see an opening/entrance/exit to leave this Tarmac area. B. Drive out through the opening/exit and turn left (Northeast) onto this street here. C. Turn right (East) at the end of this street up ahead and then turn right (South) into the entrance of the "Beachcomber Hotel". D. As you enter get off the PCJ and look up to the right (West) to see the 7th Red Balloon you can shoot with your Pistol under the palm tree closest to you. --------------- Red Balloon #08 --------------- A.

Get back onto the PCJ and make a U-turn to face North/Northeast. B. You should see a staircase at the East side of the building to your left (Northeast). C. Drive up that staircase with the PCJ and once your on the roof at the top of the stairs face towards the ramp at the West end of this rooftop. D.

Once you reach the bottom of these stairs go to the building at the Southwest corner of this impound lot and drive over to the Northeastern most garage of this building (the garage with no light over it). F. Look up to the South and you should see the 9th Red BAlloon you can shoot with your Pistol under the overhang of the garage next door to the one without a light over it. --------------- Red Balloon #10 --------------- (Note: You won't need a PCJ for awhile so you can change vehicles if you want but I'll still be referring to the PCJ since I used it to go around the city getting these balloons.) A. Now get back onto the PCJ and use the ramp at the North/Northeast side of this Impound lot to leave here. B. Drive out onto the street directly in front of you and turn right (North/Northeast) onto it. C. Turn right (East) at the end of this street (you should be passing the front of the "Beachcomber Hotel" again just so you know you are at the correct place) and follow this street straight until it ends. D. Turn right (Southeast) onto the oncoming lanes of traffic. E. As you go down this street you should see to your left (East) a large ship. F.

Go towards the Eastern side of this rooftop when you reach the top of the stairs and you will see the 12th Red Balloon you can shoot with your Pistol to your left (North) floating in the palm tree near you (if it is sunset time then this one might be hard to see since it's almost the same color as the sky). --------------- Red Balloon #13 --------------- A. Go across the street and take notice of the Red Balloon at the back (Northwest) side of the Large Cigarettes Box on the roof of the corner supermarket (just across the street from the Police Station). B. Stand on the Northern side of the supermarket and shoot the 13th Red Balloon with the M16. (Note: If for some reason you can't shoot it with the M16 just remember where this is and continue on with the directions because I will mention another way you can get it in a moment.) --------------- Red Balloon #14 --------------- A.
