“It’s 106 miles to Chicago, we’ve got a full tank, half pack of cigarettes, it’s dark out, and we’re wearing sunglasses.” “Hit it.” The Blues Brothers are back on a mission from god, this time in Los Santos. They buy a Panto, an old decommissioned police car, and set off. However, as usual, they’ve managed to catch the police attention and soon enough all the units of LSPD are after them.
We’re once again back with a “cops n’ robbers” style freemode event, this time in Blues Brothers flavor. On Thursday, April 9, at usual 21:00CEST, put on a suit, a pork pie hat, straighten your tie and don’t forget the sunglasses. All black, of course. If possible, save an additional outfit that resembles cop uniform (SWAT, FIB, prison guard etc). After joining the session, organize yourself a Police Cruiser and meet others in the car park on the roof of Downtown Ammu-Nation (the one next to Simeon’s dealership). Also, don’t forget to thoroughly read the game rules beforehand.
The rules
- Blues Brother, the escaper, uses a stock Panto provided to him/her. Cops, the chasers, use Police Cruisers (Interceptors);
- Map boundaries (see also picture below):
- City of Los Santos;
- No highways, train tracks or underground tunnels
- No entry to Los Santos airport;
- Escaper gets 10 second head start, after that the chasers can can go after him/her;
- The game is over when at least one of the following criteria has been met:
- the escaper has survived for 5 minutes;
- the chasers have managed to block the escaper for 10 seconds;
- the escaper has been in forbidden areas over 10 seconds;
- Panto is destroyed;
- the escaper exits the car;
- Player who has survived the longest, is the winner;
- Use of weapons against any player is strictly forbidden;
- Make sure you don’t have wanted levels before joining the game.
Let’s see if we can destroy more cars than in the movie. Also, big thanks to everyone who joined the planning process and promised to give their helping hand during the event. If you know some good blues music, then you can prepare to share it with others, using Rhythm bot on Discord.
Ayy, looking forward to this 🙂
Didnt make it 🙁 Was playing ludo with my family, and time passed away.
I remember when I took the ride into the multistorey car park the last time I joined a event like this.
Aye, good memories. Hope you can make it next time, heggi!
