Hi all. The Gamebizclub team is on air. This time we have prepared a large article for you in which we will tell you about such a thing as random events in GTA 5.

Have we all heard the phrase “coincidences are not random”? The same situation applies to the topic of our article - all events in the game are scripted, and they appear not just anywhere, but in certain places and under certain conditions. For example, one can only happen in the dark, another during a rainstorm, and the third is revealed only to certain protagonists.

In total, there are 57 different random events available in the game, some of them are a kind of earnings, while others help to increase the character’s characteristics.

By the way, to complete the game 100 percent you need to complete at least 14 such events. Now that we have figured out what it is, let's look at each event separately.

From this article you will learn:

Abandoned Vehicle

The “Abandoned Transport” tasks are presented in two parts and can be completed by any character.

In the first part, you have to go to Smoke Tree Road, but keep in mind that if you simply go to the car with any character, he will receive a shocker and wake up in his underwear on the rails, and a train will rush in his direction.

To avoid this, you need to activate Trevor's superpower and head to the car. Then all that remains is to deal with your opponent before he shocks you.

The second part takes you to Ron Alternates Wind Farm, where there is a suspiciously swaying trailer. As you approach, two men in shorts will jump out and try to destroy your hero. Be prepared to fight them back.

By the way, some attribute this to Easter eggs, supposedly the scene is similar to the episode from Breaking bad, where Walter cooks meth in his underpants and an apron, but we know what’s going on here.

There are no rewards.

Arrests

Arrests also come in two parts and are open to any character.

The first arrest takes place behind the O'Neil brothers' farm, you must help the criminal deal with the cops, for which he will pay 250 greens.

The second one takes place at Ron Alternates Wind Farm, and the essence of your actions is the same - help the guy escape and get $250.

Bike Thief City

Again, two tasks, we will talk about the first below, and the second event, “City of Bicycle Thieves,” takes place on Bridge Street. You need to return the stolen bike to its owner and get +3 to stamina.

Border Patrol

There are three Border Patrol events available, each of which will net you 7 hundred dollars.
The first one happens on Mount Haan Road, guys patrolling the outskirts will mistake you for an illegal immigrant and try to shoot you - your goal is to get ahead of them and kill everyone first.

The passage of the second and third tasks are identical, only their locations differ - Tataviam Mountains and Raton Canyon, respectively.

Burial

Horrors are happening in Paleto Bay - the girl was given a funeral, but she is still alive. Shoot the scum and save the lady. The rewards are different - in addition to completely filling the scale of superpowers, your character, after some time, will receive 60 thousand bucks. Also, with Trevor, you can take her to the altruists and immediately receive another 1 thousand dollars.

Car Thief

Two "Car Theft" tasks, the first of which is available to everyone, and the second only to Michael.

1. A vehicle is stolen on the Great Ocean Highway, for the return of which you will receive +5 points to your driving skill.

2. There was a theft at Los Santos International Airport, if Michael returns the car, then in addition to increasing his driving stat by 5, he will receive a new suit from the owner of the car.

Bus Tour

Nothing special - a regular bus tour starting on Alta Street, costing 40 bucks. See 12 Los Santos attractions in 20 minutes. There will be no reward.

Chase Thieves

“Catching Thieves” is represented by four events, with two tasks taking place in the city and two in Blaine County, so the prefix City or Country is added to the main name.

Their passage is no different - stop the robber and take the proceeds, then you can give everything to the owner or keep the loot for yourself.

The first situation in the city starts on Hawick Avenue, you can keep 2 thousand bucks for yourself or return it to the victim, for which you will receive a special scale. abilities and 200 green.

Next on San Andreas Avenue, having stopped the robber, you can keep 5 hundred for yourself, or return it to the owner for a reward of $50 and a full scale of superpowers.

In Blaine County on Grapeseed Main Street you can get a quarter of a thousand or get a reward of 25 bucks and a replenishment of the level of special abilities.

Also, after visiting Route 68, you will need to catch up with the guy who stole 120 bucks. You can keep the cache or return it to the owner for $12 and a filled super power bar.

Construction Accident

There was a construction accident on Calais Avenue in Little Seoul - a man was stuck in a car and needed to be helped by using a bulldozer to unblock the driver's side exit. After this, drive away from there, because the explosion will not be long in coming. The reward will be 2 points to your driving skill.

Countryside Gang Fight

Blaine County Gang Showdown is playable by Michael or Franklin. To start, visit Marina Drive and save the drug dealer from the “Missing” bikers. You can get a thousand dollars for this.

Countryside Robbery

Upon arrival on Route 68, you will see a shootout between the guys who committed a robbery in Blaine County and the police. There are two possible options, but be prepared to evade the chase in any case.

You can help the bandits and, after shooting the police, get 5 thousand dollars, or wait until the robbers are put to death, pack your suitcases with 10 thousand green ones.

Deal Gone Wrong

When you visit the Chilliad Mountain Nature Reserve, you will see many bodies, and next to one there will be a case with 25 thousand. If you try to leave the sector with money, the protagonist will come under attack. This is exactly how this mission, called “Broken Deal,” goes.

Domestic

"Household Affairs" is an event starting on Wild Oats Drive. The girl throws the guy's things off the balcony, and he asks you to drop him off at the golf club and introduces himself as Castro Lagano.

When going through the event as Mr. Phillips, you can throw the guy to the altruists and get a thousand dollars, or use any character to take him to his destination, for which he will give 80 bucks and offer to play golf with him.

Drug Shootout

There is a grass plantation on Mount Chilliad; upon arriving there, your character will begin a showdown with the dealers. Afterwards, just go to the barn and pick up the diplomat with cash. Amounts vary from 40 thousand dollars to 100 thousand, while showdowns can be arranged once a week.

Drunk Driver

The “Drunk Driver” task is presented in two parts, but they are completed identically. Drunk people call the protagonist and offer to take them to a certain place, since they themselves are incredibly drunk. Try to avoid playing street racer because then the passengers will start vomiting which will end the event.

The first one starts on Palomino Avenue. You can deliver people to their destination and get 80 bucks, or Trevor can take them to the altruists for 1 thousand dollars.

The second one is on Armadillo Avenue, but the solution is the same - take them for 80 greenbacks or bring them to the altruists for $1000.

Escape Paparazzi

On Vinewood Boulevard, Lacey Jonas is hiding in an alley, asking for help to get away from the paparazzi, and also to drop her off at a certain point. To get through, you can weave through alleys, waiting for your pursuers to crash, or escape at high speed. The main condition is that photographers should not be attacked.

Gang Intimations

"Bandit Intimidation" event starting on El Rancho Boulevard. You will hear the girl's pleas for help. She will call you deeper into the alley, but be prepared for the bandits to attack without warning. It is important to know that before the opponents jump out, you cannot take out your weapon. And when attacked, you need to shoot them and collect loot from 200 to 500 dollars.

Hitch Lift

The events of “Fellow Travelers” are presented in four parts, and despite the fact that the passage boils down to taking a person from point “A” to point “B”, the developers have added several interesting moments here.

If you make it on time, you will receive $100 and +5 to your driving skill, in addition, he will tell you how to win money on the stock exchange, we wrote more about this in the article about. Of course, you can send him to the altruists with Trevor, but we do not recommend this.

The second part starts on North Calafia Way, where you can pick up a voting lady. At the end of the trip, she will give you her number, and her driving skill will improve by 5, but you can also give her a ride to the Altruist camp for 1 thousand dollars.

There is also a lady on East Joshua Road who needs a ride. If you take her to the right place, you will receive 5 driving points, and her boyfriend will also try to attack you. It's up to you to decide whether to fight him or not. Of course, Trevor can get rich thanks to this person by 1 thousand bucks.

The latest development in this series is that there is a runaway bride on Great Chaparral. If you put her in the car, a chase will begin, with the participation of her fiancé - you shouldn’t shoot at the guy, just throw him off your tail. As before, the reward will be 5 driving points, or a thousand green ones for Trevor from altruists.

Luring Girl into Alley

After visiting Supply Street, you will see a girl in an alley asking for help. It is important to know that you cannot draw your weapon before you are attacked, so be patient. The reward will be loot from the robbers; this event is also often called “The Girl Under the Bridge.”

Mugging

In such a large city, theft is rampant, so street robbery is not at all uncommon. You have the opportunity to go through 3 different events.

Go to Carson Avenue, there a bandit will rob a pedestrian, having caught up with him, you will receive 200 dollars, which you can return to the owner and receive a reward of 20 bucks, and fill out the special scale. abilities, or you can keep the money for yourself.

He asks to give him a lift to the club, and says that he is from “The Lost,” after which the protagonist is given the first wanted level. Throw the cops off your tail and take him to his destination. The reward is plus three to driving.

The second part takes place in the same place in Grand Senora Desert, only now the escapee is sitting in the bushes. If you approach him, he will take out the barrel and try to steal your car. You can effectively teach a rogue a lesson by attaching a sticky bomb to the body of the car, and when he is about to move off, detonate the charge.

Shop Robbery

“Store Robberies” are two events that start exclusively after the character enters the establishment. The essence is the same - when you enter the store, you will see a video, after which you need to deal with the raiders and decide what to do with the jackpot.

The first robbery takes place in Eastbourne Way, and your winnings could be $2,000 if you want to keep it. If you plan to return the loot to the owner, then a 25% discount at Bob Mulet Hair & Beauty will be a bonus.

The second case will unfold on Prosperity Street Promenade, with the reward almost the same - a 25% discount on the Suburban range or 2 thousand bucks in cash if you keep the jackpot.

While driving along Highway 68 you will notice a guy tied to a pole. He is the victim of a bachelor party, and thanks to a cruel joke from his friends, the guy is late for his own wedding. The protagonist will have to take the poor fellow home so that he can change clothes, then transfer to a limousine parked nearby and go first to the Hookies bar and then to the church, which is located in Paleto Bay.

It is best to complete the mission as Michael or Franklin, since Mr. Phillips can get into trouble with the bikers in the bar.

Simeon Yetarian

This event is limited to the time interval between the story mission “Father and Son” and the first mission as Trevor. It is noteworthy that it is not displayed on the map, but if you come to the store of car dealer Simon Michael or Franklin, the dealer will flee, and the character will be attacked by his bodyguards. You can't shoot the salon owner himself, but you can deal with the security. Everything that falls from them will become your jackpot.

Sports Bike Thief

On North Rockford Drive you will see a sports bike thief, this time he stole a Pegassi Bati 801, which can only be caught in a fast car. The reward for returning the motorcycle will be +5 points to your driving skill, and if these points are of no use to you, you can keep the bike for yourself.

Altruist Cult Shootout

Security Van

There are 10 armored cash-in-transit vehicles running around the city, each of which you can rob. There is no specific location for their spawn, so you need to explore the area. In order to rob collectors, shoot out the wheels of the car and after stopping it, shoot at the lock between the rear doors so that they open.

You can also use a Velcro bomb, which is attached to the back of the case. After the doors have opened, pick up cash, usually from 3 to 8 thousand, and run away.

ATM robbery

Passing by one of the bank terminals, you can see a robbery at an ATM; these terminals are not marked on the map, so you need to look for where they are located yourself. Having stopped the robber, the protagonist will be enriched by 500 dollars, but if this money is returned, then he will only have 50 bucks and a full scale of special abilities.

It is noteworthy that if no one has robbed a person, then you can do it, but then a police chase will begin after you.

Random events are the same dynamic tasks that the developers talked about. They appear in pre-planned places. There is no need to look for them - they will “find you themselves.” Outside the mission, a blue dot or a flashing blue-red dot appears on the radar. These are random events. , but it is enough to complete 14 such tasks. And the word fulfill implies a certain outcome.

For example, a man screams for help - his wallet was stolen by a pickpocket and is now hiding around the corner. You can stay away, but it’s better to catch up with the guy and calm him down. Then the stolen money appears in your possession. This is one of the following amounts: $200, $500 or $2000. The player can keep all the money for himself, but then the mission will not count. Or he can return it to the victim, then he will give the player part of the money (usually 50 bucks), and another fraction of a percent will “drip” into the statistics.

One of the lucky owners of the returned wallet,
and in the background is a failed thief.

The same story with a stolen car or bicycle. It is also advisable to return them to the rightful owner. So, for example, after returning the bicycle to the victim, after a while he will send you a letter saying that he is a wealthy shareholder of a large company and will give you $100,000 worth of shares in his company. Having sold these shares, we immediately receive one of the achievements that requires you to sell the shares for the amount , more than what you bought them for. And in the case described above, the income in any case will be one hundred percent.


One of the attackers may be The Lost bikers in their vans.


Another type of random event is a cash-in-transit robbery. We attack two guys in uniform. We quickly shoot them, grab the money and leave the crime scene. As a result, he will receive $5000 and two wanted stars.

There are tasks when you can help the police. For example, a cop is chasing a criminal. You can help the latter and stun the fugitive, or you can deal with the police, get money from the fugitive and several stars from the state police. Or meet a real brawl between raiders and police. You can help shoot one or the other. By killing criminals, we won’t get anything, but you can grab the money and run away from the police yourself as a lawbreaker. Or you can help the bandits by shooting the police, but getting a wanted level and a share in the case.

In addition, there are more interesting tasks. So, for example, in one of the alleys a woman may call you to help a person who suddenly became ill. By responding and following her, you will come across robbers who will take $500 from you. However, as soon as they run, we grab our weapons and shoot the brave men. We'll return the money, and we'll also grab their weapons.

Or another situation when an accident occurs at a construction site: pipes fall onto a truck standing under a crane with a driver in the cab, blocking the doors. The car is about to explode, and we need to act: we get into the bulldozer and push the pipes away, allowing the driver to get out.

A special place is occupied by hitchhikers who ask the protagonist to take him somewhere. For example, this is a girl in the middle of nowhere who, after a serious party, wants to get to a guy on the territory of a television tower in the north of Los Santos. He works there as a security guard, and along the way a little drama develops, and on the spot the boyfriend of a fellow traveler mistakes the player for her lover and clearly does not interfere with the best intentions. You can immediately grab a heavier weapon and rein in the aggressor. True, the police will be on your tail. Or, for example, a guy whose wife kicks him out of the house and he's late for an important golf tournament. Or a bride who has changed her mind about getting married and runs away straight from the church. You can save a young girl from the clutches of bikers The Lost, which, as it turns out after the chase, is a relative of one of the bikers who stole the money. Interestingly, after helping them out in Trevor’s shoes, any of them can be taken to the forests where the altruists’ camp is located. There, local residents will give $1000 for the sacrifice, and the player will receive one of the achievements. True, not everyone can be sold to the inhabitants of a secluded town. For example, a fellow traveler whom we pick up near a broken down car on the highway. She is a robber who failed to escape the police chase. She is wounded, and therefore Trevor decides that she is unfit for sale, which he declares loudly, and before reaching a couple of hundred meters to the indicated place, he dies in the passenger seat.

There will also be a dynamic mission, which was talked about before the game’s release: the player will need to save the star from annoying photographers, breaking away from his annoying pursuers. However, the most interesting mission of this nature will be the inconspicuous, at first, rescue of two robbers who did not bother to prepare the car for departure. To start this task, you need to select Franklin, and then find a parking lot with adjacent shops near his aunt’s house at night. There we will meet two unlucky robbers who will ask for a ride. We pick it up and break away from the police, and at the same time listen to the dialogue. First, one of the passengers calls the second an Irish bastard, and the second talks about how he once did great things in Liberty City with his cronies. Packy, is that you? Indeed, he is! Aged, recovered Packie McReary, one of the main characters, a close friend of Niko Bellic. At the end of "Four", he actually flew to Los Santos, as expected. Now this nice Irishman will be available to us as a member of the gang.

The prototype of "random events" in GTA V were "random passers-by" in GTA IV. As you would expect, in the new part these secondary tasks were raised to a new level, simultaneously dividing them into “eccentrics and other strangers” and “random events”. The structure remains the same: events are shown when the hero approaches them, and are marked with blue dots, which sometimes blink invitingly. Random events can make life easier at the start of the game, so we recommend going through them at the beginning of your criminal career.

Random events are divided into three components: reward, persistence, consequences.
The reward can be monetary, property or “spiritual”, which includes achievements or an additional percentage of completion, or there cannot be a reward at all. For example, a girl’s car was stolen near the airport, which you can return to her after receiving the suit, not return and put this car in your garage, or simply ignore it. Random events are not missions in the usual sense, there is no right or wrong choice, it all depends on your capabilities and conscience. However, not all events are one-time events, so they allow you to experiment with possible outcomes.



Consistency - this factor sifts out unique events from mediocre ones. While wandering around the city, you can hear a cry for help: someone’s wallet was stolen. You, again, are given freedom of choice, on which the reward will depend. After completing this task, after some time, the same scene will appear in the same place, which you can see again. This type of event quickly becomes boring, which leads to habitual ignoring.



The next factor is consequences. In addition to rewards, some events may provide access to unique content. For example, driving a little further than Braddock Pass you can stumble upon a girl named Taliana Martinez who was injured in an accident, who, if successful, can join you as a gang member for robberies. Or, having found the girl Ursula on one path near Chiliad, after a certain outcome she will become available for dates, which brings new opportunities to the game.



Random Events are short missions that appear from time to time in certain locations in San Andreas. There are 57 of them in total, in the extended version of the game there are 60. To complete 100% you need to participate in any 14.

Despite the name, the events are not entirely random. The only thing that is random is whether they appear or not when you find yourself in a certain place. If an event occurs, when approaching it, the radar flashes white and a dot appears on it. The blue dot represents an initially neutral event. Red - hostile people. A dot flashing red and blue means you can either help or hinder the person.

Some random events are available to all protagonists, some are not. For example, Trevor clearly wouldn't help the Lost gang member from Prisoner Transport 1, so only Michael and Franklin can participate in this event.

Some events are repeated, some are not. Encounters with armored vehicles and robberies at ATMs will occur endlessly, and you can also go on a bus tour an unlimited number of times. But most events are unique and happen only once per game.

If a unique event occurred and you did not participate in it, over time a new chance will appear. Just return to the desired location periodically, doing other things between visits.

The Rockstar Social Club has a list of all random events and a map with them. There you can keep track of which random events you have already completed.

Events you can miss

During the game you can skip two events: “Simon Yetaryan” and “Shootout at the Altruist Camp”. You can participate in the event with Simon only after the story mission “Add as a friend” and before completing the story mission “Mr. Phillips”. To participate in the “Shootout” you need to bring 4 victims to the Altruist Camp - people whom you bring during other random events. If you throw all these people to the place they need, access to the firefight will be closed for you.

Awards

For participating in some events you either receive nothing or receive something insignificant. However, individual events bring significant income or significantly affect the gameplay.

So, before the first murder of Lester, it is worth completing “City of Bicycle Thieves 1”, “Blaine County Heist”, “Shootout at the Altruist Camp”, “Funeral”, “Showdown with Dealers” and “Failed Deal”, as they allow you to make good money.

It is advisable to complete the “Driver for Bandits” event before the first robbery, as it will allow you to get an experienced shooter on your team.

It is advisable to complete the “Survivor Rescue” event before the “Raid on the Bureau”, since it will allow you to get an experienced and cheap driver into your team.

If the event does not appear

All random events begin to appear only at a certain stage of progress in the plot. Most - after completing the story mission "Predicament", or the missions of eccentrics and strangers "Favour" or "Starlet in Vinewood". "Seaplane", "Simon Yetaryan", "Survivor Rescue" and "Funeral" begin to appear later.

Events can appear on any day of the week and at any time of the day or night. The exception is the “Bus excursion”, which can only be taken during the day.

If you are sure that the event should appear, but in fact it does not happen:

  • complete or replay a story mission or a weirdos and strangers mission,
  • take part in a race or triathlon,
  • go to a strip club or on a date,
  • do something else.

In the meantime, return to the scene of the event and sooner or later it will appear. Just make sure another random event hasn't spawned shortly before, otherwise it won't work.
In some cases, it is worth finishing the game and returning to it later, especially if the methods above did not help.
