I've found that the auto-lock is mostly for getting the crosshairs over a target quickly. After that, release to go manual, and fine-tune from there.
I appreciate that it requires some skill -- but it stops the auto-lock from becoming THE ULTIMATE KILLING MACHINE.
Something about the multiplayer kinda pisses me off. I've had times when I've had full health and armor, I'm shooting someone in the head over and over again with a machine gun, and nothing happens. Then, like, one shot from them, and I'm dead.
Though, I've had that problem in just about every online deathmatch I've ever played in any game. It sucks at times, but it's balanced out when you land that headshot.
Also, why do people keep ducking, and making it even easier for me to kill them? I should send them all messages after the match thanking them for reducing their mobility and allowing them to die even faster.

Probably because in every other FPS ducking give you better aim and lets you hide better. Fast pace of this probably it's more a hindrance than a help though.

See, my first encounter was near Autoerotic (Thanks, Leto II.). That suggests that the second one will be near the Alderney safehouse.
Are there only two missions for Eddie Low? Something else I read seemed to suggest that there are 3.
All missions with the random characters involve not more than two encounters. Such is the case with Eddie Low, Marney, Pathos, Sara and Jeff the Cuckold. Although you have three encounters with Jeff, the third one does not launch a mission at all, considering what happens to the guy at the end (much LOL'ing there).

My first encounter with Eddie was at the AutoErotica also after the Aiden mission with Packie. I guess I'll try and find him around the safehouse in Alderney.
Eddie Low is creepy...but I guess rapists/serial killers are creepy people.

Pathos owns.
And I enjoyed the Hossan one because I got to steal the guy's Banshee, plus it resulted in my most stylish driving kill. PIT maneuver, jamming the Banshee in front of me, one pistol shot directly to the guy's head leaving him slumped over the steering wheel. Steal his car and drive away.

Funny. I wonder if that really is the guy who voiced Roman.

No, there are only two encounters/missions involving Marnie. There's three encounters with Brian but only two of these actully envolve you doing a favor (mission) for him; the first one is where he's just talking bs and gives you a bit of cash to show you that he can.

Recent fun stuff: Called Packie for drinks and hang around drunkenly with him. He spout stuff about wanting to go to Ireland. Then he broke into a soulful and not too shabby rendition of "Oh Danny boy". I almost clapped out loud.
Easiest way to get the "One Man Army" Achievement: If you've unlocked Algonquin but haven't unlocked Alderney, just go to the heli port, steal a chopper, head over to Alderney and fly over its airspace (maybe even go low over the ground for good measure). Instant six star rating. Then just fly over Alderney for the next five minutes, being mindful of police choppers (thankfully, they don't seem to lock on to you and give pursuit). Easiest Achievement in recent memory.

Does anyone know the location of the reward you can get for doing all ten of Little Jacob's package deliveries?
I had loads of problems doing this, the beat up car you given isnt really capable of the runs within 30 ingame minutes. Until I found out you can get a taxi...
I'm just wondering where is this so called nice coloured car.

I don't know but I've never had a problem delivering the package to the drop site.

Did he sent you a text message with the location or was it something he said over the phone? If it was over the phone and you can't recall (who can blame you, considering Jacob barely speaks English), then you should look it up on an online guide. If he texted it to you just as Stevie texts you the car models and locations he's after, just go to your phone and look at your received messages. Then with the help of your ingame map you should find the car.

This may have been answerd already, so forgive me if it has, but I am trying to get 100% but I forgot to due Romans taxi cab missions. If I start a new campain, does it completely wipe out the percents, meaning i have to repeat all the percentage I have done, or does it keep my game progress percent and just adds what i do?
Am I clear enough or is this just a garbled mess.

Stevie asked me to steal the Sultan. I found it in Berchem and stole the car; however, I don't know where to deliver it. Anyone encounter this or know where the lock up is?
