The GTA appreciation thread ( no spoilers please)
Discussion
Noticed my first bit of game bugs last night.
In one of the cut scenes Michael is wearing a shirt but its open so his torso is on show. Except for the first 15 seconds of the cut scene its not loaded fully and his shirt is cut off (cave man style, all jaggered) just below his nipples. Looked rather amusing until it loaded!
Still trying to figure out the stock market thing. But need another £50k on Michael so I can buy the scrap yard and bring in some cash. I presume its the same as the old GTA where you just drive a car in and it gives you like £1000 or whatever.

Nope, you get £150 for every destroyed car in game or something.AndrewEH1 said:

thats not a very good return.
Can you still go into clothes shops and hold up the counter to rob some money?
Not sure about the clothes shops but I held up a corner shop!Can you still go into clothes shops and hold up the counter to rob some money?
I keep being a fool and returning peoples stolen wallets and stuff on the random events only to loose out on £4500 or something when they give a small tip. I've only got a free suit for Trevor so far. No more nice guy, I'm keeping it from now on!

Yea as you work your way through the missions the early game money issue works itself out eventually. Until that happens there is no harm in robbing the armoured cars and stuff and you can do side missions just not the assassination ones. I am still trying to get my head around the property thing just now since it seems to me like the reward is far to little but then again I haven't bought any million plus stuff yet so I will see how that goes.
Happy to help!
So just to clarify, the missions you get as Franklin by going to "L" on the map are available to be played after the story has been finished?Happy to help!
I only ask as
I've done the 1st heist, then did the 1st assassination mission - at the hotel - If the L based assassination missions stay until after the story, ill hold off and get a load more money to put on the stock markets after I've done all the other missions!)

You do get some stuff afterwards, there is a side mission where a guy gets his bike stolen, you give it back then a couple of days later get an email from him saying he's given you $10k of shares in his company.
I gave a chap a lift to the Airport after his car broke down, he told me he was involved in investment banking and that he does a bit of inside trading. On dropping him off he gave me something like $200 and said something along the lines of "You have helped me out a lot, I will help you out with a tip, buy shares in X company ASAP!". So I went big, with all 3 characters. Haven't seen a rise yet....
The idea of storing money in steady stocks and shares seems a brilliant idea to reduce your health bill
