It's not an issue for me, as I said. I think it increases slightly based on the quality of your apartment. Shame we can't customise our apartments. I'm not meaning in a Sims way. Even if I could just change the colour of my couch, I'd be happy.
I do look at fighting games as simply as possible. I guess as a reaction to the indepth approach the community takes. Tiers, frame data etc. I just lumber along the screen and try to beat people up. Thats as complex as I get. |

They missed a golden opportunity with the monster truck. It's non-customisable but imagine if you could customise it. Changing the flags on the back to another national flag or even your crews logo would be great. I know it's a 4th of July thing which is why you can't change it.

I don't care for tier lists and I have a modest interest in frame data. I do care deeply about the metagame and move properties.

I avoid tiers because if I see my chosen character is inferior to a character I later fight online, I'll go into the fight with a negative expectation of the outcome.
Even the meta game is too technical for me. I do try to predict my opponents move. What is the metagame anyway? |

You know how basketball is basically about taking the ball to the other team's hoop and scoring? Things like your offensive and defensive approach, choosing who to double team and what risks you endure leaving a guy open, who to bench, what fouls you'll let happen - these constitute the metagame. Games within the game.
SF is about depleting the other guy's health. With Gief, seeing how you can exploit his powerful command throws is a game within that premise. A metagame. |

Not an issue of good or bad, just applying elements of the game. You've already been apt to the metagame, at least for grapplers.

I see. I hear Hugo is supposed to suck in USFIV and that Akuma can absorb two hits from Zangiefs Banishing Fist/Green Hand with his standard focus attack. So August will be fun for me when Ultra arrives.[/sarcasm]
Still, by regular standards, 4 or 5 characters I'll likely regularly select is spoiling me. |

That's just Vanilla Akuma, he can't do that in Ultra.
Hugo's issues was just Week 1 bitching from bitches. He's very strong and has great priorities and range on his normals. He can lock down people well. |

Nothing makes people rage like being locked down by a grappler. The number of rage quits and negative feedback I've had to deal with when I'm in control is insane.
As long as he has a fair shot in a fight, I'm good. |

I get accused of being overly aggressive. Playing as a brute strength character. In a fighting game.
I'm house sitting this week while the person who owns the place is out of town. No GTA until Friday night when I get back to my own place. After 5 days without GTA, would anyone be available for a big TPWW online session in GTA? Nothing to do right now but watch endless reruns of Friends on Comedy Central. |

There is a new glitch going around. I've not experienced it myself but a friend has shown me. A random car and prostitue can sometimes appear in your garage. Sometimes she's dead on the floor, having fallen from above and, other times, she's still dead but in the car.
If you sell the car with the dead prostitute in it, you get "millions". No idea on exact amounts, yet. You can't save the car in your garage. |

I've no idea why he gives you millions, it's a glitch. That necrophilia story sounds messed up enough for GTA so lets run with that.

Going online right now btw, if anyone cares to join. Did a job for Lester last night and got $30,000. Also, there is a car thats like an SUV with a distinct silver strip along the side. Sell it in mint condition for $9000. Stock up your garage with them to periodically sell them for $9000 a time.

Maybe it was a mission that was discarded but some of its code remained.
And I have to go out soon. The internet has been gay lately. Halo and Battlefield was bad, I'd hate to see how GTAO looks with this house's lag spikes. |

Maybe. Would that glitch into free roam?
That $30,000 mission from Lester is now paying out $15,000. I'm assuming because it was my second time doing it but Rooftop Rumble still pays handsomely so maybe R* just tweaked the money. |

Speaking of money, does anyone know how the money for custom races etc is calculated? I had a race that I made with one check point. You raced from the airport to the Vinewood Bowl with no fixed route. It pays a little over $700.
I thought it might be the number of check points rather than distance that calculates money so I made a race using the maximum number of check points but the money was no better. |

My mental state shot up by about a bar when I wasn't even playing. Also money vanished from my ingame bank. I thought that happened a few weeks ago when I robbed a view convenience store and the money vanished when I played next time but I wasn't sure. Now I know it's happening.

Beat this last week. Enjoyed it, but I feel like there could have been so much more.
Taking care of my Under the Bridges and Stunt Jumps to get 100% and the trophies that go with it. Followed by my combination of 70 gold medals. |

Plus, I've never glitched or bought a Shark Card but I'm still doing pretty well.
I've got the most expensive apartment in the game and a house in Paleto Bay. 10+ customised cars, including a Turismo R I've really souped up. Every available item of clothing. Something like 98% of the available guns with a lot of upgrades and ammo to go with them. I've still got over half a million in my ingame bank which I'm saving up for my biggest purchase. I'm doing fine without the glitches. I do consider myself a "Bounty Hunter" in the game, including Lesters random assassination missions. So it does add up pretty quickly. |
