VCPD Cheetah: Difference between revisions

The '''VCPD Cheetah''' is an undercover police version of the [[Cheetah]] used by the Vice City Police Department ([[VCPD]]) in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]]. It is also known as the '''Vice Cheetah''' in GTA Vice City based solely on its model name in the game's files.

In the Vigilante side mission, the player is required to chase down and kill the indicated targets (other criminals) within a time limit. At the start of the mission, a criminal spawns in a random vehicle (clearly marked and shown on the [[radar]]) and attempts to evade the player. If the vehicle catches fire or is held in place for more than a couple seconds, the occupant/s will bail out and run or attempt to acquire new transport. (Watch out, they may even steal your car!) As the player completes each level, the target/s come armed with better weapons and, as of GTA Vice City, become more numerous until eventually, multiple vehicles appear with each new level. The mission is failed if the player remains outside of a Law Enforcement vehicle for more than 60 seconds in a row, the player dies, or is busted. Vigilante mode does not grant immunity from the [[Police]], who will often pursue the player for murder, firing weapons, hitting police cars etc. Each time a Vigilante mission is started, the player must begin at Level 1, and cannot continue a previously failed or cancelled mission.
