Good Sport Bonus 2.0

[GTAForumsUser1]

Car duplication, dropped money bags, dead hookers, character swap, outright modded accounts...

 

Between all of these and ther similar methods, thousands of GTA accounts now have billions of unearned money.

 

All of the thousands of legitimate GTA accounts get not only nothing, but worse, inflated prices that are calibrated to inflated illegitimate account balances.

 

It's time for Good Sport Bonuses 2.0

 

R* has the ability to identify illegitimate money through analyzing various data points.

 

The innocent should get free money to help offset the cost of inflated prices.

Speaking of Good Sport Bonus. I got a Good Sport Bonus 3 or 4 times while duping. Makes perfect sense.

[Silencer555]

I would honestly love to get a massive increase in the "Good Sport" bonus from it's meager $2000 bonus to something like $50000 if you've never done any Bad Sport related things for a day or two. It can increase the longer you remain a total good sport.

[Hunter]

The innocent should just join in on the party.

 

Also, I think if they could detect who was duping, then they wouldn't give them good sport rewards (often while they're doing it).

 

But yeah, more stuff's never bad. Think you've got too much faith in Rockstar's capabilities though.

[Jammsbro]

I've never understood the good bad sport thing.

 

Kill a player? Fine.

Destroy his car? Bad.

Destroy his crates and cargo? Fine.

 

Rockstar punish you for destroying a PV and then make you pay for it. But advise you to destroy someones cargo and crates and they pays you for doing so.

 

Rockstar logic.

[TreFacTor]

They gave away money just the other day though. 2.5 million ever few minutes.

Yea well, if some of those amazing money glitches comes to PC i rather join the cheaters.

 

I probably have to tell one of the crews i am in and will likely get canned because they do not like cheating, but yea....i really had it with paying this sh*t legit.

The prices are overkill, the new freeroam jobs pay sh*t, nothing got balanced in the past year except for the super car class...unless we include the muscle car class, were they pretty much "fixed" it by adding more overpriced crap to the game, so it is safe to say that yes...totally done with this sh*t unless their patch fixes ALL of those things...which is not gonna happen because cockstar is only interested in cash card money.

 

and no, i indeed doubt they will ever make the good sport rewards worth it...they might have been kinda worth it before ill gotten gains, but since then 100 k has become almost nothing, let alone 2 k

[HeavyDuke]

Long story short, you are jelly about modders having billions, yet you want billions yourself from R* for being 'legit'?

[Furry_Monkey]

I don't need it, thanks.

 

But lol.

[The Wandering Hunter]

i thought the gs reward was like 2.8 mil now?

i got it every time i swapped character.

 

i'm glad rs are encouraging multiple characters

Wait, there was another type of money glitch? When?

I would say about a month ago. You could keep swapping characters and get thousands to millions of GTA $ in a matter of minutes. It was patched pretty soon.

Feels like a month ago to me though lol.

[Bangha]

good sport has nothing to do with earning money through those methods, it just boils down to avoid blowing up vehicles or leaving jobs. If you are caught cheating you can be banned, not sent to a bad sport lobby. On a personal note I blow up every car I want without getting the BS warning - I just launch a CEO mission.Regarding money I only dupe/glitch on my legit account, since my level 950 character has billions of modded money.

[TreFacTor]

@HeavyDuke

 

I hear ya. They don't come around often enough.

;(

 

 

Honestly good sport rewards is like a pat on the butt from Lester. I'm sure there's ill intent behind the gesture.

Let me get this straight, so you want people to band together as some sort of twisted community in hopes to not alienate the fanbase further apart, all by intentionally alienating the fanbase and treating innocent players like they're some sort of real-life deranged criminals?

 

Not only is your plan heavily flawed, it's also incredibly narcissistic and self-centered. You essentially want goody-two-shoes to go into a power craze by being Rockstar's pet and ridicule other players for not being as self-righteous as you, because of instead of blaming Rockstar for making the exact same mistake twice, you treat players like they've pissed on the Bible for taking advantage of such an incompetent flaw.

 

Grow a f*cking spine and use your real account instead of relying on a sock puppet, you knew you wouldn't handle backlash and didn't want your reputation ruined, so you made such an obvious throwaway that it's honestly pathetic.

 

By the way, it's not the players' fault that the prices are inflated, it's because Rockstar has designed so many features lately to be as much of a boring grind as possible to coax people into buying shark cards, that's how it always been since day one.

[Guest]

SO essentially what you're saying is, those who have refrained from getting free money should be rewarded by R*... with free money?

 

You can't have your cake and eat it too, OP.

Only my opinion but I do not think prices went up because of cheaters. I'm sorry I just don't believe that at all.

Switch character and get free millions... At least do pac standard and put some work in, you lazy bastards.

Been there done that. I haven't played with my second character since he hit 800 so it was nice to be rewarded for simply checinkg what he look like.

Good sport bonus 2.0?

 

Gimme a Railgun. Doesn't even have to have ammo, just gimme the damn thing!

How about a jet pack backpack and we'll split the difference? Lol

[GTAForumsUser1]

R* apparently needs to give players a good reason to play legit...

Fixing game breaking issues would be a good start.

 

I've logged nearly 190 days worth of game play, and I've never modded and have always tried to play fairly, but I don't see anything wrong with taking advantage of car dupes; that's a coding error that anyone could stumble onto--it isn't openly modding an account or breaking something within the game for an upper handed advantage.

 

People can argue day and night about effective ways to make money, but in the end, much boils down to one thing: Shark Card sales. Sure, I can make as much as about 500K on a good day, but I'm not going to sit around and grind a heist for hours on end. Even so, one could argue that the Pacific Standard glitch is no better than taking advantage of duping, but at this point, I don't even care anymore as long as people aren't finding illegitimate means to cheat within game modes (TDMs, races, or even free roam). If people want to grind Pacific Standard, dupe cars, or take advantage of some other coding error for some money, awesome; I hope everyone takes full advantage and enjoys it!

 

R* is as quick as hell to fix and patch the holes that make duping possible, but god f*cking forbid that happens when there are actual game breaking bugs and issues that hinder game play and cost the players virtual money. That's all just swept under the carpet, often forgotten, or not even taken seriously until months and months down the road. Don't get me wrong, I love this game and still play it, but the issues from this update and the fact that all of our legitimate concerns are ignored give me a better understanding why players do whatever they can to obtain money and stay at least a half step ahead.

 

I say all of this as a "legitimate" player; but even some of us have our limits.

To help inflation of prices, lets increase money given to players that don't glitch!

 

Lol no.

[KornbreadMaf1a]

The reason people like you play legit is so you can say you play legit and think it makes you a better person when in reality all y'all secretly wish you had the intestinal fortitude to glitch money but you are just too big of a pussy to do so because you are afraid of virtual consequences. Living life scared is not living life.

[GTAForumsUser1]

Perhaps just as we non-glitchers are stubborn on our high horse, you glitchers are stubborn defending breaking the rules because it's the choice you made and justify.

[GTAForumsUser1]

And here's some more food for thought. Many of you draw a line between glitching and hacking as if glitching is not as bad.

 

If the end result is you making millions without earning it, it is tantamount to hacking, it just took you somewhat more time.
