Chapter
Las Venturas

Explosive Situation is a Syndicate job in Las Venturas. Woozie needs dynamite, and the nearest supply sits in a working quarry out in the desert.

Walkthrough

  1. After the cutscene, take any vehicle to the quarry and drive into the red marker. Cutting straight across the desert saves some time.
  2. A two minute timer starts. During the cutscene, look for the man in a black suit and a yellow hard hat. He holds the detonator, and killing him removes the timer.
  3. Clear the quarry workers. A Sniper Rifle from the top of the hill makes this easy, but you can also take them on up close.
  4. Head down the hill and climb into the Dumper on your right. Four green blips mark the dynamite crates. Drive over each crate to break it, then collect the dynamite.
  5. Once all four are in hand, security blocks the main exit. Get on the Sanchez and follow the markers up and out of the quarry.
  6. Take the dynamite to the drop point to finish.

Tips

  • Look after the Dumper. If it is destroyed, the mission fails.
  • If you leave the timer running, keep moving. GameSpot notes that you only have a couple of minutes for all four crates.
  • The guards near the exit can also be picked off with a Sniper Rifle before you ride out.

Rewards and unlocks

You earn Respect and $7,000. IGN notes that the Quarry missions and the Casino Heist missions open up after this job, starting with Architectural Espionage.
