Grand Theft Auto IV (4K) - Smackdown
5Smackdown is the first mission that Niko Bellic does for Derrick McReary in Grand Theft Auto IV. To get the mission the player can call Packie after the Three Leaf Clover mission. Derrick is one of the McReary brothers. In this mission Derrick asks Niko to kill one of his war mates, Bucky Sligo.
When Niko meets Derrick at the park in Acter, Alderney, he's severely intoxicated and incoherent. It takes a while for him to explain that he's got a problem. One of his War buddies, Bucky Sligo who was busted into prison by Derrick is now blackmailing him, threatening to kill his family. Derrick decides to end this, so he asks Niko to kill him.
Walkthrough
In order to find Bucky's whereabouts the player will need to get access to a police computer, which means to enter a police car. There are a few parked nearby since an LCPD station is right around the block. Once inside a police car, bring up the police computer and search for "Bucky Sligo" (or just "Bucky").
The police computer will list Bucky's hideout, a Burger Shot in northern Alderney, and then proceed to the destination. On route Niko will briefly call Derrick to inform him of this.
Pull up to the Burger Shot location. A cutscene shows Niko blasting the siren and Bucky riding away. Chase the truck through the various alleys until he parks his truck at his hideout. Bucky will abandon his car and head into the hideout, where the five members of his crew are stationed. Killing Bucky and his gang will then result in a two-star wanted level.
Once the player has evaded the police, Derrick will call Niko while intoxicated and say that alive and dead are "both the same thing." Niko tells him he will speak to him when he is among the living.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
Find a cop car
Use the police computer to find Bucky's hangout
Search for BUCKY SLIGO
Drive to Burger Shot where Bucky hangs out
Follow Bucky to his crew
You have found Bucky's crew, take down the whole gang
Lose your wanted level
Tips
If the player is dating Kiki, and is on good terms with her, they can call her to lose the wanted level.
It might be a good idea to call for back up when the player arrives at Bucky's place in a Police car. The police will be attracted to the gunshot fired by Bucky and his crew, and may help the player to kill all of the men, saving the player's ammo.
After the Mission
Shortly after finishing this mission, Niko gets a phone call from Brucie who says his pal Stevie will be in touch about "some cars he needs found". From now on Niko will receive text messages from Stevie with locations and photos of cars that he can steal and to deliver to him for a cash reward.
Soon after completing this mission, Niko will get a text from Ray Boccino. He tells Niko that he has set up a new safehouse for him in Alderney. It is located on Mahesh Avenue in Alderney City, not too far from the Booth Tunnel that connects Alderney and Algonquin.
Trivia
This is the first mission in Alderney.
Completing this mission and A Long Way to Fall unlocks the Alderney Safehouse.
The player will still receive a 2-star wanted level even if the police kills Bucky.
The title "Smackdown" is a reference to World Wrestling Entertainment's brand Smackdown.
