Fifth Mission - “Bleed out” (Roman) Since you have chosen to go to the date with Michelle instead of going to help your cousin defend himself against some thugs, on this occasion the game will give you the opportunity to redeem yourself. Drive around a bit after you leave Roman until you get a call from him. The Albanians have found him once again and are beating him near a basketball court. At the end of the call, you will be shown the way on the GPS to reach the place where Roman is, follow the directions and you will soon be with him. You will be able to park your car near the basketball court after which you will have to walk to the basketball court.). At this point a short cutscene will start. The Albanians appear clearly afraid of you and will try to make you think. Of course, you won't listen to him and you'll be ready to crack some heads. This will be your first hand-to-hand combat experience, and you will immediately notice how the combat system is more refined than in previous Grand Theft Auto chapters. Be sure to follow the onscreen instructions to make sure you lock onto an enemy. Then, hit hard, trying to avoid the enemy's punches. Both Albanians are quite weak. However it's on their cutthroat friend on the other side of the wall that you really want to get your hands on. The cutthroat, Dardan, runs away and will take a car to escape faster. You will have to hunt him down. Run to your car, get on it and you will immediately see Dardan's position displayed on the HUD, marked with a red dot. And from here begins the hunt. Keeping up with Dardan is important, but not too demanding. The only possible way to fail this mission is not to distance yourself too far from the target or destroy Roman's machine. If not, you simply have to stay close to the red dot that is indicated on your HUD without worrying about anything else. GPS won't help you right now, but you won't need it anyway. Keep following the target without letting it drop until it stops. You will arrive at a warehouse in the port, and you will see Dardan's car abandoned. Follow the on-screen instructions which tells you to climb the stairs to the upper floor of the adjacent warehouse to reach Dardan. Here you will have to face it. Dardan is armed so be careful. As it will be easy to guess, the knife he is holding is more dangerous than the fists of his henchmen. Either way, you should be able to hit him enough to knock him down and kill him. Once you've taken out Dardan, head back to Roman's car. The GPS will be active again, and will show you the way to the taxi rank. Then get Roman down, and the mission will end. And so, the first batch of missions that follow each other linearly ends.
