Some stuff (Rating: Teen) · 6:32pm Aug 15th, 2014
I'm using my dad's computer at the moment. Current computer is getting fixed. Hopefully I'll be able to hop back on my potato and play games on said potato. Right now, I've been playing my PS3 and being bored with robbing the same story for money in GTAV (fantastic gameplay, Rockstar).
Actually, let me just bitch about GTAV online for a minute. There are some pretty asshole players in games who do stupid shit, but with whatever the hell the Mental State status is, it just makes it worse. People will just get a super high mental state, find some isolated building and stand there, throwing C4 at people who try and kill them, which ends up with them having a bounty on their head and means more and more players will try and kill them. What I find absolutely ridiculous is, not only the fact that the who Mental State thing is stupid for a GTA game (where being bad is the point of GTA) but the fact that when I kill said psycho man/woman, I also start to go insane, and they'll still be insane after I murdered them to death. Rockstar's incentive is the RP bonus for killing them, but you also get penalized for it. Also, the mental state interferes with robbing stores, as killing cops earns you a frowny face sticker on your shirt. I just find it dumb and it really takes away the recklessness that is supposed to be GTAV.
Anyways, totally different topic: are you guys blind or something? Well, not you guys specifically, but "you guys" as in the site in general. I feel like, when the staff fails your story for descriptions, you can't read. Sometimes I'll fail for both descriptions, sometimes only one. Let me give you our fail messages for each of these things:
The short description of your story is not quite adequate. It needs to give some indication of what your story is actually about.
The long description of your story is not quite adequate. It needs to actually describe what your story is about.
For people who weren't raised in a sewer, these aren't difficult to distinguish. For people who (apparently) were raised in a sewer, this is like me telling them to complete a rubix cube with only half the stickers on it (it's a really shit rubix cube). When I fail your story at all read the God damn message properly. Not only that, but when I say "short description" is it that damn hard to figure out which description to change? The short description goes in the small box and the long description in the big box! WOW! It's like, magic or something. Amazing, I know. Settle down. Not only are the boxes various sizes, they're also labelled. God dammit, figure it out already.
Also, stop trying to use italics and shit in your short description. We're failing for that. It also doesn't work.
Anyways, hopefully I get my computer soon. Ta-ta.

2372756 Weren't you the guy who wrote a blog post about Corruption of Champions? Sorry, it was a while ago, I must be thinking of the wrong person.
2372758
Nooo. Never touched that game.
2372763 Ah, schisse, sorry then...
Man, my comment must be weird.
I'm guessing not so?
Good luck with the computer dealio!

I mean, there's other things you can do like missions and stuff for money, but most of them don't really bring in enough for you to make a decent profit. The only things I generally like doing are Simeon vehicles (stealing cars and giving them to a man named Simeon) because they can make a ton of money. However, it's random when you need to go after Simeon vehicles.

Thanks.
2372784 I see. I've never really played GTA in general.
There's no penalty whatsoever for having a high mental state, other than people maybe staying away from you because you look like a lunatic. I just think killing cops and NPCs shouldn't raise the bar.

I just dislike the 'Insurance' system they have. If you blow up someone's car, and they're in it, I don't think you should have to pay for it. If they're NOT in it, then you're just being an asshole. But if I'm being chased by some shite in a Carbonizzare, I should have the option of blowing that fucker up without having to worry about paying for his pretty little car. HE chose to chase me, so HE should have to pay for it when things go poorly.
Also, some higher level missions have a pretty good payout. I had one for 37500 at rank 75. Simple mission, too.
2372886
That's not a bad payout. I'm only at level 13 or something. I'm doing small shit so I can get some form of decent armour, because armour sucks dicks in this game.
A lot of that game is illogical and downright minute, mental state was one of the reasons I stopped playing that shit. srsly m8 I got to like level 140 or something, and I stopped. crazy rite?

crazy m8.

I think I playing Online for about a week before deciding it was too shit-tier for me, and went back to causing carnage in the singleplayer.
At least there, I can destroy cars without having to pay for them, don't have to worry about random chumps camping the streets in a tank, or deal with the worst respawning system I've ever seen in a multiplayer game.

I've been on and off with multiplayer. It really fucks me cause I play CoD every now and then and am use to pressing square to respawn, which happens to be the "1-vs-1" dueling aspect of GTA when respawning. So, I can accidentally ask to duel a dude who's, like, 400 levels ahead of me by accident and you can't do anything to stop.

Rockstar's multiplayer has never been friendly for low level players. Red Dead Redemption was the same.
You'd be a low level, and find yourself dropped into a match full of players who are about 100 levels higher, armed to the teeth with the best weapons in the game, and they all just wreck you every time you get near them. In the end, you're forced to just find some empty corner of the map and foreveralone it up. Mightaswell just stick to the single player.
RDR also had the same shit-tier respawning, now that I think about it..... Did Rockstar just copy Red Dead's multiplayer, and slap on a GTA skin?

I don't think you could fast respawn in RDR. At least with RDR, it was a bit more open and people couldn't just buy tanks and annihilate you instantly.
2373357
That's true.
Oh, Shadow. You can fail me for my descriptions any day.
Lol, on a more serious note, some people are just dense.
