Why the hell can't I call them? I can have an ambulance, fire truck or police car brought to my location instantly via cell phone, but not a taxi? They are plentiful, I know, but every once in a while I'm stuck in an area where I can't find a taxi for 10 minutes. It's annoying as shit.
I think it's because you're supposed to call Roman's taxi service.
Why the hell would you ever use a taxi
[QUOTE=Kai-ryuu;20949365]Why the hell would you ever use a taxi[/QUOTE] A lot faster.
I find it relaxing to just use a taxi.
[QUOTE=Elecbullet;20949536]I find it relaxing to just use a taxi.[/QUOTE] I find it relaxing to stab old women in the face, then, I take my baseball bat out of my jacket and proceed to bash heads.
Call Roman or wait for one they're everywhere

[QUOTE=srag;20951673]I find it relaxing to stab old women in the face, then, I take my baseball bat out of my jacket and proceed to bash heads.[/QUOTE] You managed to carry 2 melee weapons at once?
[QUOTE=mr-kaki;20952074]Wow, talk about irony (I assume he tried to say that the previous poster's grammar sucked)[/QUOTE] Or that perhaps the only time that talking about stabbing grandmas is acceptable is in a gta thread?
I prefer just calling for a taxi, much easier and time saving then jacking a car and getting wanted.

[QUOTE=Tyler_Durden;20952107]You managed to carry 2 melee weapons at once?[/QUOTE] I'm not sure who to reply to, so spinning world avatar gets it, yeah, I managed to carry four actually.
[QUOTE=MurphyS;20952376]L2Read.[/QUOTE] Crap. I thought of the context as the post's context and not the thread's context overall, which made the post illogical.
You can either call Roman's taxi service after getting a certain respect level from him, or you can call one from the streets (that cost money).
shoot the mofo in the face as he drives by and steal that shit!
[QUOTE=Achilles123;20949356]I think it's because you're supposed to call Roman's taxi service.[/QUOTE] Oh, sorry, I didn't specify that I was playing TBoGT, not vanilla GTA4.
Just hail a cab in the street, it's not like waiting a while if there isn't one there is such a pain.
You have to do a mission before you can hail taxis I think. It's awkwardly far in, a number of hours at least. Oh right, misread it. Just call Roman.
[QUOTE=FPChris;20959018]Just hail a cab in the street, it's not like waiting a while if there isn't one there is such a pain.[/QUOTE] Yeah, they're all over the place, but sometimes I find myself on a street where there is no traffic and being able to call a cab would be really convenient. I find I use the cab more than any other form of transportation, since it's basically like a teleport to where ever you wanna go.
there's a phone number on the bumper but it doesn't work shame

Well in The Balled of Gay Tony I usually just call up one of my homies to bring a car.
I swear to god, the only reason you should EVER call a taxi is so you can kill the driver and steal the car.... I mean, the game is fucking called, GRAND THEFT AUTO, it wasn't named that so you could casually go around paying for taxi rides.

A taxi kidnapped Little Jacob once. He just drove off with him. :comeback:
