I Know About the Blimp But ive heard people saying its a lie all along does that mean its not in the game or is it just not drivable?

Just not drivable. It is however deemed as "something special" ;)

I think you can get on the thing it is carrying!

I think its some kind of mobile save-point that floats around the map. Perhaps you can instruct it where to go, instead of directly flying it. And when you reload the game, you can base jump down below! Imagine, Rico's mobile sky-base! :D

That is the greatest thing I ever read, this and a letter from Ed McMahon saying I won a million dollars! :p I wish this is true!

Its definately not a lie because it appears in the new official DLC trailer. But it's funny because underneath it is a sort of ship, I wonder what you could use that for

That's what I asked MCM in them 6 Important Questions, is the Blimp drive-able if so is it the mentioned mobile home? He only said it's not drivable but nothing about it being a mobile home as I asked, so hopefully.

If the blimp is one of the safehouses, then then other seven pics from (the other thread) must also be safehouses aswell.

After playing the saboteur im so acustomed to blowing up blimps, i dont know how i'll stop myself from blowing up the blimp in JC2.

You know what will stop you? It's invincibility.

BTW, your first line is a good point too

Personally, I imagine the Blimp is either a flying enemy stronghold or a mobile base for Rico.

Well right now it narrows down to safehouse or places of interests.

The top 8 pics, have to be something special.

And ive ruled out strongholds cause theres 9 not 8

If it was a stronghold however, it'd make for one badazz stronghold with rico having to dogfight through bunches of airplanes and jets to get to the blimp then it turns out the blimp is heavily armed with machinegun turrets and rockets.

I wouldn't be suprised if it was baby panays last safe haven, and this is where the final mission takes place. But that'd be to predictable wouldn't it.

hey guys! i just had a sudden brainwave, perhaps the blimp is the "mile high club" that we have seen a the visit panau vid? maybe what the blimp is carrying is some sort of club or small resort?

Erm... sorry guys, but since the blimp is a place, trying to tie it to a building will probably result in... nothing

Since both Mycoldman's confirmations:
1. You can't tether 2 immobile objects
2. You can't pilot the blimp

1. so you cant tether a building to a building? that sucks :( i know its pointless but i'd still want to try it lol.. lampost to a lampost .. stuff like that..

2. i know, it would be really slow so it would be pointless to pilot anyway!

Maybe you can do it with lamposts, since they are destructible, I dunno

And the blimp, yes it's a pity, but it resulted to be bigger than what we thought and not a vehicle. Understandable at least, not like the Lamier... (aww, again)

maybe, i really wish for JC3 they make the tether a physical object, so you can closeline people

Maybe there is a runway on the blimp for smaller jets? Because it looks really big.

That would be awesome if it did, but then again why would there be a runway unless it was a base of some kind?

Speaking of which... If Dr. Evil from Austin Powers had a new evil Lair, the blimp would be it...

Could this be the same for Pandak Panay?

by the way my fiend says he spotted the Blimp in nearly every gameplay video, even the 11 minute one near the end apparently.
i dont know if its true but if it is then i think it is a mobile safehouse that follows you otherwise whats the point in the "Mile high club" following you (apart from obvious reasons :))

maybe its what delivers vehicles to you? say if you call in a plane from the black market, maybe it comes down from the blimp, or is waiting for you on the blimp?

I don't think the blimp will be big enough to carry more than 2 - 3 vehicles at a time depending on the size, but you never know, and it's hard to tell the size from so far away.

I know it's off subject but that vid was awesome, and I just found a hilarious scene from that film. here's the link

I've asked this a couple of times but never got a clear answer.
I know, you can use the dualhook. But what happens
when I try to theather one enemy to a motercycle and afterwards
I theather another enemy to the motercycle. Will they both hang
on to it or will one of the enemy's be released ?

I don't think so. IIRC, Only two items can be hooked together at any given time. So following that, as soon as you attached the second enemy to the motorcycle the first one would be released.

That would incredibly wicked if the blimp was a save base. I would love to have every time I start the game I can just run forward and skydive down to the Earth.

A lot better than starting on the ground and having to find a way to the sky.

Lets hope for it, I always find it cool if you have a spot in a gama where you can just relax and dont have to worry about enemies. :thumb:
