There is an area north of the yellow zaibatsu phones where you can gather some peds and do this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/fpspcrshk9hg6pv/EEstrats.avi?dl=0

So far machine gun, silenced machine gun, electro gun and flamethrower worked for me.

Benefits:

• faster than bus EE
• using (silenced) machine guns you can get one or two extra accuracy bonuses (5k$ base points). if you get only one, you can try to shoot at some people on the way back because you might be close to getting the second bonus

Problems:

• sometimes you lose the combo (like the first try in the video), but maybe positioning was bad
• with a wanted level of 4 the ped spawns get somewhat low so you most likely can´t gather enough peds and need to respray first (maximum so far i got 3 times in a row before needing to respray)

As for the route, its not much different than the old one here:

Suggestion: Leave out the yellow Krishna mission and instead of shooting russians, shoot some krishnas in the vedic temple after you are done with missions to get the respect to at least +2 or +3. Thats because the spot is in zaibatsu territory and you might kill some performing the EE. You also need to somehow gather enough machine gun ammo, so pick up the ammo at the hospital when you do the yellow russian missions and probably in the vedic temple area at the right of the ramp after you kill krishnas and are on the way to do the EEs. One mission less is one multiplier less (and less score), so you will optimaly need 8 EEs here with the accuracy bonuses providing the rest. With this route it probably should take around 15 minutes with good execution.

Maybe there are other spots where this is possible and maybe even in downtown(police stations usually have a lot of peds spawns)? So feel free to post here if you find anything or have some better route ideas. ;)

Wouldn't this also work with Molotovs or Rocket Launcher too? Seems like killing whole group in 1 shot would be faster, although you don't get Accuracy Bonus, so might not be worth it after all(but might be worth trying).

I don´t see how you could get the whole group with one rocket shot. Molotovs maybe, if you spam a bunch, but doesn´t sound easy either. Flamethrower is faster than machine gun, but you dont get the accuracy bonus.

That is truly amasing, I'm most certanly going for that in marathon runs now. Since bus is just boring and was shown in downtown by that point. Thanks for that post!

But don´t forget to pick up "get outta jail free-card" somewhere so you don´t lose your multiplier after getting busted accidently since cops can surprise you there.

I tried those strats and noted some things:

• if you got some Pistol ammo from killing gangster, you can use it for "herding" and save Machine gun ammo, low fire rate of Pistol might be a little problem here though
• there's flamethrower, near path we take from Russians to Krishna, just south from car service you use in bus EE, somewhere around buildings, can consider picking it up

I might try tinkering with Kill Frenzies. I don't remember any, but maybe there will be one that could be of use - in sense to get it to spot, get EE and finish Frenzy to lose Cops without detouring to respray

Kill Frenzy would be a good idea, but I didn´t find a useful one nearby (there is one north of the northwest police station, but it seems too far away and only lasts 1 min and most other are about killing cops). Using pistol is indeed a good idea to spare some ammo, it even gives this "useless" weapon a new purpose, haha. There is a cop bribe not too far if you run towards the crushers to the right after the EE, which might save seconds. I don´t know if the cops full reset after the pick up, sometimes road blocks still appear on the roads and it might affect ped spawns.

Watching the industrial area with the gta2 radar from here: http://gtamp.com/2016/01/01/gta2-radar/ I think a few machine gun rounds can be picked up during the very first mission without too much time loss. And you still might have some silenced machine guns from killing the special agents later.

I didn't believe it would work so I had to test it on my own and I have to say that's pretty damn good find. Its just that I die easily on some of those missions lol, I would otherwise give this a go.

Some optimizations i "stole" and combined from WordofWind ideas:

• Use the Electro Gun from the "Tanks A Lot!" mission for EEs later. You won´t need to collect extra machine gun ammo and it is safe as you can´t really lose a ped combo. But you will need 9 EEs instead of 8 with machine gun, which is no loss because Electro Gun is more reliable and probably even faster anyway.

• get Zaibatsu respect to at least +3 in teh Vedic Temple (you can use the machine gun, as not much ammo is required for EEs, only a bit for gathering)

• "new" EE strats: instead of running down the long path to gather peds, stand just below the road-end near the EE spot and move camera up and down (three times?) to spawn some peds while shooting one machine gun bullet to scare them into the corner when the camera goes back to normal. Then run down to the right and shoot a few more bullets to gather the rest, then switch to Electro Gun while running towards the "EE" corner and zap the poor basterds. If you are lucky you can get three EEs before you get wanted lvl 4 and need to respray (also park your car not far away and on the left side, so that the crane won´t take it). With perfect luck you should only need to respray twice, saving 30 secs. (Police bribes sometimes don´t reset road blocks which seems to affect ped spawns, so respraying the car is probably more reliable.)

Compared to the method before this saved about 1:30 min on the EE part (~5:45 min to ~4:15) in my runs.

"A minute later the car is GONE, STOLEN, 5th time this month. These people, these carthiefs, joyriders, I'm telling you, I wish they all had ONE BIG NECK, so that I could put my hands around it and choke the living life outta all them! ALL AT ONCE" © Dean Frantz at Futuro FM OneHand

So I sorta found something.

Nice, i never considered shooting against the wall, haha. You can also do it quickly with the car if you run out of ElectroGun.

Just the new update, based on Nukulars run and some little additions:

• Grab a fast car at the start, drop by the Russian HQ and get -4 Russian respect, also if possible some wanted level so that you might grab a cop car while you are killing for respect

• Go to the green Krishna phones and get wanted lvl 2 on the way, take the lower phone

• Lure two cop cars to the crane, so that you have all three that are needed there and shoot a few Krishna to get Zaibatsu to at least +2

• Head to the yellow Krishna phones when the crane starts pulling the last cop car, you might pick up the machine gun next to the ramp on the way if needed

• grab the yellow phone to the right (the Russians provide possible machine gun ammo too)

• after completing the mission go to the Zaibatsu crusher located in the west by following the highway

• do the EEs with the car and there are two cop bribes nearby which are faster than respray, but might screw you with spawning road blocks

Also question to @Nukular, how do you do the quick camera twitching?

I just press Alt+Up Arrow and then release it. I don't really see that it is quicker.

Yeah you can ignore it, I already figured out how to do it.

Had nothing to do so I launched GTA2 and went on industrial to look up new EE places and... I cant say if this would be faster by any means, but the time is close to the current strats. here it's anyway.

Yeah the time is about the same. It is not as easy as the other one though and roadblocks can appear on the road. If you could do EEs with wanted lvl 4, so that you can do 4 in a row then it should be faster, but else not.
