RoboticMonk3y Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 apparently, stocks in liveinvader are royally broken. buy stocks, then sell them about 5 mintues later and your money can be almost doubled. If only i was at home and not doing overtime at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Reflex Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I saw the lifeinvader exploit, I don't really want to take advantage of it though. I had a look at the stocks last night and couldn't make head nor tail of it because not all of the information you need to make a decision is there, there's no company history so it's hard to tell if you're jumping in just as stocks are falling from a all time high or whether they're climbing from an all time low. I need more info before blowing wads on money, because mistakes could be costly as fuck. Do the share pay dividends? If that was the case I'd just buy bits and bobs all over and enjoy the drip of income they'd give. I did receive 100k's worth of stocks in a petshop for returning someones bike that had been stolen. That was nice. I wonder if stocks are safe from the law? If they are it'd be best only to carry pocket change around with you and have most of your fortune in stocks so that any bail or medical bills are as minimal as possible. I played out the 2 heists I mentioned earlier, I spent about 5 minute trying to get the chopper to pick the sub up before realising I had to press right on the dpad for it to connect. I felt like a proper idiot when I realised what I'd missed. I finished up on the mission where you have to get the files from the plane that's leaving the state. It was amazing how that despite me feeling I was taking my own route there I was being subtly funneled into loads of invisible checkpoints. It's smart they can play those sort of mindgames through design. Now I'm locked into playing Franklin for a bit by the looks of things. I guess that means I can do the races and stuff while I wait for the clock to burn out and get back to the other missions. I have assassination missions to do but I've been told to leave them off until the end for big buck making. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallofbooty Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Assassinations are all linked to buying stocks low and then reaping the rewards of selling high on completion of the hit. The more you've earned up to that point (end of main story it should be a lot) will increase those investments massively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Reflex Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I thought maybe you bought them after the hit (for instance the lifeinvader stocks crashed after the phone went off when the gaffer showed it off) when they crashed and then sold them on once the market recovered.

smallofbooty Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 There's in-game advice/hints from one of the characters. It's a while since I did it so can't remember the specifics/order you do it. I had done some of the assassinations before realising I should have waited. By the end of game each character will have in the region of $20 odd million basic, which is a great amount for a guaranteed investment return.

Sly Reflex Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Lester? I did one mission for him and then have not gone back, I didn't really understand what the deal was. I think that's an issue this game has sometimes. It feeds you so much every mission and it can be hard to keep tabs on everything that you can do.

smallofbooty Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Lester. That's him. I managed to muddle thru OK so it shouldn't pose a problem for a man of your intellect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sly Reflex Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 That small town bank job. Holy shit. That aeroplane mission with the cropduster. Holy shit as well. It's like R* looked at all the crazy stuff that goes on in Saints Row and went "Yup, we can do that as well!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyKurosaki Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 True.Only unlike Saints Row, they don't let you play as a cockney woman. Naked. With massive tits. And dance like Michael Jackson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoboticMonk3y Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 So this is worth getting then? if you're busting to play with other people, yes online is mostly fixed and I give it up until about cChristmasbefore people tail off and start playing something else. If you're not desperate to play with other people, then wait until about januay feb, I guess the price will drop down to about £30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sly Reflex Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 It feels so good to get back to this. Annoyingly my time away saw my shares rise to 3 times what I bought them for and drop to even less than I paid for them, so that's a bit annoying. Looking at how the markets work it's a case of start a session, buy shares in something that's about to bottom out and then sell them as they rise up when you've done playing. Also for some unknown reason, Michaels car has been pimped the fuck out, it has dollar signs on the alloys and a tacky horn now. I went to check my bank to see if I'd done it somehow and all the transactions were not related, so fuck knows how that actually happened. Weird doesn't even begin to cover it. It's a bit out of character that I've ended up with that set of wheels. Managed to score a gunman from heist jobs that originates from Liberty City too. That's a nice touch. He'll have to be bloody good to replace Chef though, Chef is an amazing gunman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
