Lounge for The Chain Game: San Andreas

A turn has to be Completed to count.

@Mateczko/Weasel: Thanks for letting me know, I never saw that quote in the rules bit.

Crashed into a tree near Mount Chiliad and exploded the Rustler. (N.O.E)

 

Was I meant to respawn here rather than at the hospital?

[Shoumaker]

Yes, this is a restart trap so you can't save the game after getting either busted or wasted.

[Username.gta]

Ah, is it always LVA or is any other location used for the other cities?

[Shoumaker]

No there are several restart traps around San Andreas

[Space Cowboy]

Every city has them even small ones like El Quabrados. You can actually avoid being trapped in restart trap by getting Katie as a girlfriend. However this works only while you are in SF. You can do similiar thing with Barbara but this obviously works only if you got busted. You can also get wasted stat in Bloodbowl. But exploiting these things is not allowed.

Can't think of any high tower places around EQ, take it the player just gets stuck in a building or something?

In fact, one of the Restart Traps, Casino (I think) in LV is bugged, and you can get out of it easely.

Better way would be to teleport CJ to some unused intertor with no doors (warehouse, perhaps?)

It depends on where you are at when you get Wasted/Busted...There are some in LA, Santa Cruz, SF, The Desert? and LV....

 

As 0909090 has said(which is what I said a little back in this topic), is there are 3 ways to get around this, however, DO NOT do this in the Chain Game...Independent play is fine, but NOT in the Chain Game turns. Just a friendly heads up on this subject.

^Do you mind telling me method how to get out of it? I have never managed it.

You're not supposed to. It is a Trap to prevent continuing in the game after a 'Wasted/Busted' result.

Always double check CJ's wasted stat after Bloodbowl. I think it's possible for the car to explode during the fade out at the end of the mission and not even know it when CJ respawns right out front of the stadium.

 

I am aware that it is possible to escape from at least one of the restart traps. It was my opinion that the restart traps were flawed by the girlfriend override restarts, and added confusion -- it was something I altered because I could and not because I should, so I got rid of them. But rubregg put them back because they were a popular feature. Now that everyone is aware of the limitations I'm curious if people still like them.

 

There is one restart trap for each of the original busted/wasted restart locations. The traps are usually near the original location of a hospital, clinic, or cop shop. An interior location wouldn't work for a trap because CJ always restarts in world 0, so he'd fall right through the interior. The Independent Play saves should have the default restart locations.

I was one of the ones who suggested to use them back in the earlier rounds, as it seemed like we were having problems with people saving after getting wasted/busted back in then...However, if it is not much trouble, I say we leave the restart traps out for a few rounds to see if we have a problem with people saving after getting wasted/busted, and if we do we can bring it back? What do you think Orion and JAJ and the rest of the officers?

[Space Cowboy]

But what's the point of removing traps if we are not allowed to save with busted/wasted stat?

[Username.gta]

I guess it's all a matter of trust.

 

Even in my own saves, I reload after getting wasted or busted, so it's not much of a concern to me.

 

If someone saved after doing so, it should be fairly obvious when the next player proceeds to download the save that someone broke the rules.

[Space Cowboy]

Dude Gary-X that picture of dead Millie almost gave me heart attack, don't do that anymore.

[Username.gta]

Thanks for your compliment. =3

[Celestial Hyena]

Is it possible we could have a special Hunter heli for me? to show my money making skill with the Hunter

 

I love that Heli

[MrMateczko]

There's Hunter at the Los Santos airport (spawns after some mission, I don't know exactly).

[Space Cowboy]

Could you be more specific I don't really understand what do you mean by "special heli". BTW at the LS airport helipad there is Hunter after mission "Cesar Vialpando".

[MrMateczko]

This isn't VC or III Chain Game, when certain users have personal vehicles. The current version of CG is going since round 39. I think it's no need to modify the save anymore.

[Shoumaker]

I really want to max out the cash in one of the rounds, maybe all of us could contribute doing vigilante missions using the hunter maybe?

[Celestial Hyena]

You need to do 398 levels in total in a row to go from min to max for cash but it takes a few hours to get that done

[MrMateczko]

ITB. But it's lame.

[Space Cowboy]

Maxing cash is pointless but if someone enjoys doing tons of vigilante levels I don't mind..

[lil weasel]

A reminder when starting a turn and then 'forfeiting' a player must wait until after another player has a turn before taking a turn.

 

[Space Cowboy]

Oops my bad, we actually posted at the same time, so I had to forfeit. I didn't realise that I had to wait. BTW I was wondering will you come back to chain game, we miss you

[iLiR]

BTW I was wondering will you come back to chain game, we miss you

Yeah man, we all miss you

[evil_hunter]

 

Agreed, I also remember weasel said this once when he was waiting.

 

Here it is

 

 

I've said it before, and I'm repeating now.

A Player who calls a turn in the Chain Game shouldn't be off Doing a 'Mission Help' at the same time. Or vice-versa.

Shoumic, you seem to have forgotten what you had quoted 1 month before.
