Hello and welcome back to the thirty-second episode of this GTA III video series, The Definitive Edition. Today, we’ll continue working as an emergency worker. More specifically, we’re gonna be a fire fighter for the day. Um, this is an optional vehicle sub-mission but we’re gonna go for one-hundred percent so, therefore It’s, It’s compulsory for us. Um so, we are gonna go check out the Fire Department and hope there is a truck available. Sometimes there isn’t and yeah. Let’s see how it goes. And there’s a truck their, beautiful. Um, the, we’re gonna be breaking this up into three parts, or three acts also. Same as the Taxi and then also the Police vehicle. So this is the ‘Firefighter‘. Though, what makes this more unique than the Taxi is that you gotta extinguish twenty car fires per island. So, It’s not too time sensitive. So this is, should be a good time for the most part.

Nice, slippery when wet. Where we going? Nineteen fires remain and we have a timer that looks kinda tight so, let’s get this heavy Fire Truck to the next vehicle. Handbrake’s so well in the rain, perfect slide. You’d think that rain would actually assist in the putting the fire out. I mean in real life it would to some degree. Oh man, this is tight. Wow, that blows my mind how a light pole can spin you like that where if your in like a car, it just doesn’t do that usually. My weight distribution’s definitely different. Whoa, watch out. One thousand dollars. Three or four fires. Let’s not roll it. I guess this will be pretty straight forward. It’s just really the time that’s the enemy and obviously the Triads.

And, I don’t wanna talk about those guys, they’re so frustrating, I’ve come to realise. Ah nice, I love the way this thing slides. Oh it does have a siren. I don’t really feel we’ll need to use it though. Might have to employ it sometimes. Right now for example. Crazy Taxi’s. Oh a Diablo Stallion on fire. Flame job and flame carcass of a car. That was fun. I wonder what that means, my mothers my sister. Oh ha ha, yeah. Well the locations aren’t as difficult as some of the ah Taxi locations. Like on the main road, pretty easy to get to. We’re half way. Just give the people a little hosing while I’m at it. Cool down, you look hot. Whoa, we got some nice time clocked up. We should be able to get through this. Whoa, ahem, excuse me. Oh, Natas spin. Ha ha, that was so cool. That was epic. Whoa, oh look at that ah, just got the ‘Splish Splash’ trophy. Must’ve been cause I got, must be fifteen for that trophy.

I wonder if you get another one if you do the whole sixty. I’ll find out at some point. I’m not urgent to find out. Whoa, whoa. Cool down Police officer. Oh the time. It’s not too bad but getting stuck like this isn’t good. Traffic pole. Okay so, we’re going down Chinatown. Never a good time. Whoa, I’d imagine this truck can take a bit of damage though. One would assume. Oh, Trashmaster get’s to drive again. Good old dust cart. Chinatown again, watch out for that cliff Taxi. Just headshotted a bloody innocent bystander. Which way, ah. Usually It’s going backwards and now It’s just straight ahead. So yeah, one more, nice. It’s good that we got all that in one go and the flaming Diablo Stallion. ‘Relief Pitcher’ unlocked. Okay so, we’re just gonna toggle off that mission. We earned fifty-two thousand, five-hundred GTA dollars. Um, no doubt this will not fit in the vehicle garage at Portland safehouse. But, we’ll take it anyway. It’s fun with the handbrakes going out wide. Well, I hope you enjoyed this episode that was Firefighter. I’ll see you on the next.

Harwood Firefighter FDLC Location

Summary

The Firefighter sub-mission in GTA 3’s Definitive Edition is a unique challenge that players take on using the iconic Fire Truck. To get started, players need to locate a Firetruck, which can be easily found at the Harwood Fire Department in Portland’s Burrow of Liberty City. Once behind the wheel, it’s all about extinguishing vehicle fires throughout Portland’s district and the other islands.

Each island in the game—Portland, Staunton Island, and Shoreside Vale—presents different challenges when you’re on firefighting duty. Players have to adapt their strategies based on the island’s layout and traffic patterns, with Portland being the initial playground. Mastering each environment ensures a smoother ride through the flames.

To excel, players should focus on learning the quickest routes to fire locations. This involves a bit of map knowledge and understanding traffic flows. It’s not just about speed, though. Players will need to manage their Firetruck carefully to avoid unnecessary damage and to maximise efficiency in putting out those raging car flames with hosed water. Rain will not help your cause.

Another critical aspect is understanding the entirety of mission requirements. The goal is to extinguish vehicle fires across the islands, 20 fires per district and players can earn bonuses based on their performance. Quick, accurate extinguishing is key to reducing chaos and moving up the ranks within this vehicle sub-mission.

Players might face challenges like heavy traffic or difficult terrain, especially in areas like Portland Burrow. Being prepared with a clear strategy and awareness of what’s going on around them can make all the difference. By staying determined and adapting to each situation, players can conquer the Firefighting element and make a real impact in the world of GTA 3.

Unlocking the Flamethrower: Completing Firefighter Missions Made Easy

Taking on the Firefighter missions in GTA 3’s Definitive Edition isn’t just about putting out fires; there’s a fiery reward at stake. Successfully extinguishing up to 60 vehicle fires grants players the ability to unlock a flamethrower at each safehouse. This makes the sub-mission an enticing opportunity for those eager to enhance their arsenal.

Progress in these missions is straightforward: extinguish 20 vehicle fires on each island. Players must cover Portland, Staunton Island, and lastly, Shoreside Vale to reach the target. Completing this cycle strengthens a player’s position and prepares them for more intense adventures in Liberty City.

For those looking to achieve this swiftly, it’s helpful to develop a clear strategy. Identify key routes where cars tend to set ablaze more frequently. This makes it easier to hit the required targets without losing precious time. Knowing when to repair the Firetruck and how to dodge traffic can make completing missions much less chaotic.

The flamethrower isn’t just a fiery weapon—it’s a crucial tool that expands what you can do in the game. Having one at each safehouse means you’re well-prepped for challenging encounters or tasks that require a little more firepower than usual.

The Firefighter sub-mission isn’t only for completionists but also adds depth and excitement to the overall gameplay. Completing these optional missions brings a sense of accomplishment and opens up new possibilities in the game’s dynamics. It’s all about setting a goal and watching it light up (literally) as you achieve it.

Mastering Firefighting in Liberty City: Expert Strategies for Players

Firefighting in GTA 3 isn’t just a simple task—it’s an art that, when mastered, can drastically enhance your gameplay experience. The Firetruck is your primary tool, designed to tackle fires with tough durability and a powerful water cannon. Getting familiar with its controls and capabilities is crucial for successful missions.

To make the most out of each mission, sharpening your navigation skills is essential, especially in areas like Portland Burrow. Knowing the shortcuts, dictating traffic patterns with the siren will help you reach fire sites quicker and more efficiently. Often, these missions require a deep understanding of Liberty City’s layout.

Certain spots in the city are prone to vehicle fires due to dense traffic or other variables. Players should take note of these high-risk zones and plan their routes accordingly. Being a step ahead can significantly reduce response time and improve mission success rates.

The Firefighter mission shines in its ability to offer players a unique way to engage with the game’s world while contributing to a larger purpose. It encourages exploration and provides a satisfying challenge that tests both speed and strategic thinking.

Experienced players often share tips and strategies that enhance mission efficiency. Engaging with the community or seeking out player testimonials can provide valuable insights, ensuring you’re well-prepared to face Liberty City’s fiery trials. By learning from others and refining your approach, mastering firefighting missions becomes a rewarding aspect of the game.

  1. The Firefighter sub-mission in GTA 3’s Definitive Edition is tedious. I remember my first time tackling this Fire Truck driving in Portland’s borough—it was embarrassing, but it quickly became one of my favourite side activities when I got the hang of it. Navigating the tight streets and dodging traffic while racing against time to extinguish fires adds a unique layer of intensity to the experience.

    In my experience, knowing the map well and planning routes in advance is key to success. For instance, using the Firetruck’s siren to clear traffic saved me valuable seconds on more than one occasion. My favourite part? Unlocking the flamethrower at safehouses—it’s a game-changer that makes all the effort worthwhile.

    Overall, I think Firefighter offers a refreshing break from the main storyline which allows you to improve your navigation and quick-thinking skills. If you haven’t tried it yet, it’s definitely worth diving into the fiery action!
