Dose anyone miss Being buff/fat in GTA

This has been discussed several times recently I believe ad the overall answer is they wish they could pick size. The problem is when you have multiple different body types the clothing has to be modified to 'fit' the character or they would only look buff or fat when they weren't wearing a shirt. Possibly later in the life of GTAO when they have more time mess around and add more features instead of worrying about heists and other glitches. Would love to see this implemented soon though. Would be pretty funny seeing a giant fat person skydiving out of a tiny plane

 

That's just the point. They should have done it this way:

 

1. In char creation, have a S M L XL XXL (XXL = the body builder types at the beach for example) preset body types. Pretty much the same way you can chose presets in Skyrim.

 

2. Once you pick the body type you want to see online, this preset would allow for physical character variation based on stuff your char does in the game. So if you picked the extreme end aka XXL/body builder type, you'd start the game looking like a buff body builder. But if you didn't work out daily at the beach or use gym equipment around the map, your char's physical appearance would change. HOWEVER,

 

3. ThIs body morphing would be a sudden change and only go into effect the next time you come online or switch online sessions.

 

• So if you picked the XXL body builder type, but didn't work out for say 1-2 game days, the next time your char switches sessions or logs back online, you would see they looked skinny. Just the way CJ looked before he started working out at the gym in SA.

• Now say your char started as a XXL from char creation. But over the next 1-2 game days did nothing but eat convenience store junk food (while NOT on missions like survival etc). Or didn't do any intensive physical activity in FM (aka physically running from other players, the police, swimming, bicycle riding non motor vehicle bikes, or doing any non mission related activities like golf, or arm wresting etc). Then the next time you log on/switch sessions, you'd see your char was fat. So the rate of muscle loss/body morphing would be extreme for XXL.

 

• Now go to the other extreme and say you pick a S (small/skinny) body preset in char creation aka the current body preset everyone currently gets atm. Then no matter how hard your char tried to work out, they wouldn't be able to stay muscular for long i.e. 1-2 game days if playing continuously. So basically if they miss a day working out in the gym, the next time you switch sessions or log back on, they would revert to being skinny again. Same with trying to get fat from overeating. This would be close to realism because in irl, it's challenging for skinny body type ppl to get fat because of genetics (high metabolism) and/or their environment.

 

• Now pick a mid range body type in char creation aka M - XL. Only these body types would experience the ability to gradually body morph like described in #3. But the rates at which your char would look muscular to thin would be significantly less than for XXL (extreme muscle mass loss if not work out daily) to S (small/skinny body preset where you can't get fat/muscular or big at all)

 

Finally,

 

4. They should have added clothing for S M L XL XXL body types in all clothing stores. So all you'd need to do is visit the clothing store and buy the appropriate size clothing.

If you happen to be out of the appropriate sized clothing after body morphing, then your char would have to run around in their underwear until they could afford the right clothing sizes. That would give ppl something to work toward TBH.

Being fat is something I predict would happen to a TON of ppl in FM with the CoD mindset ppl have in FM. Basically come online, claim a bit of turf in FM, then park your ass there un-moving. Just so you can shoot at anyone who drives withing 3-4 blocks of your camping spot. Assuming this is all ppl do (since most of the missions, and non mission activities are always vacant) and eat to keep up their health in FM, then most griefers would all be fat TBH

 

Something I can get behind. Best solution to this issue I have ever seen
