Who is saving their 15 Gold from R* and why

Got my latest bribe and promptly shot back to GTA:O and story mode. Still, another number for R* to rub the shareholders with, uugh.

 

I'll give it until the update next year, not looking promising for me though but we'll see where it goes.

 

Even the $1000 for my ultimate edition isn't a draw to sign in and help with the numbers next week, if the game proves to allow session choice, a thousand bucks is easily earned, and I'd enjoy it. But as it stands, I'll no longer contribute to this car crash.

 

See ya next year folks. The game aside, been great fun reading/chatting here. I hope to return. :)

only two things i'd kinda want is the sombrero and the leather duster. I can wait though. Nothing else takes my fancy enough to spend them.

Nothing I need with gold bars atm. I'll be saving them for future content.

Waiting on friendly lobbies before purchasing any gold bars.

When i pre ordered the UE it came with a free money gift for GTAO, but i dont play that. (couple of millions)

I wish i could trade that in for gold bars...

 

Well, us UE owners will be getting a cool $1000 next week so that is pretty nice I guess.

 

As for me, I have yet to spend my gold on anything either. I am sitting on 70 gold bars at the moment. My problem with weapon customization is I change my mind way too often. In singleplayer I cannot tell you how many times I've changed up the way my Lancaster or Semi Auto shotgun looked. I am afraid that I will spend some gold on metal mods and then decide I want it to look a different way. 

 

Clothing-wise, There are some things I want but the early access to them with gold bars price is insane, and I rather just grind my level up and eventually get those things, that way I save my funds and also have something to look forward to. I never saw the appeal in getting items in games before you're officially eligible for them, where's the fun of progression in that?

Lol, i did the same in SP with the weapons, but... that was a nice way to actually know what i want now.

I only did my Cattleman (upgrades and colors), and on my Lancaster i only did the upgrades not the colors (those are fine)

The rest i will think about it when im gonna do that.

 

On your last point, its just cosmetics and some things i really want, wanna look good but i was lucky to get good starter stuff that i really like, but a 2nd kewl hat and a coat that are not so expensive i will buy.

And i dont need much gold for them, the rest i will earn over time.

I do think that over time we will get much stuff to look forward when it comes to grinding, still much to be added in the game.

I only have 18 gold bars at the moment. I'm definitely going to jump on that one time offer of 25 gold bars for $4.99 USD. That will be all I spend on in game currency.

 

I'm going to save it all until a major updates take place and they add more items.

Why bother? Barely noticeable weapon color mods and pointless clothing do nothing for me. But pleasE, everyone else, go buy it so maybe they actually add some stuff to do.

thought about saving aswell but then again, WHAT FOR really? you think they will add the luxury goods later on? or do you think you will need all that gold to buy property so you can run a "business"?

I will just hoard them for now.

Once RDO is out of Beta I will consider using them. If we get to keep them,, which I have read we will. But that could always change as well...

It would be a bit crazy if we didn't get to keep them. They are reward for us testing things early when there's almost nothing to do to keep us interested.

I wasn't going to just save them all per se. But i wanted to buy a few items to make my character look like django. Turns out i may have jumped the gun and im not satisfied with my choices. So now im out 8 gold bars so i said f*ck this sh*t and stopped playing.

Thats one reason i dont wanna change my guncolors...imo if you purchase a metal,it should be yours,and if you wanna change color you only have to buy new stuff. Same for haircuts. At most it should cost a bit of cash. 

That or you dont make gold as rare as it is atm. 

Besides the best horse nothing thats in the game atm is worth gold imo. I dont grind 10 hours for a simple jacket etc and im pretty sure you cant count on rockstar gifts all the time.

I'm saving them for two reasons...

 

1. There is nothing I want to buy.

2. For me online is boring as hell right now and is borderline unplayable.

I'm holding on to the bars. Noticed the fast-travel post for the camp was priced at 120 bars (or there abouts). At the rate I'm making gold, I'll be lucky if I can afford it when I hit Level 65.

The thing about the fast-travel post is, as far as I'm aware it's only available from your camp. Which doesn't spawn anywhere near you when you request it to.

So you basically have to travel to your camp in order to fast-travel anywhere.

Your camp should spawn right next to you to make it worthwhile.

The fast-travel post is $700 when you unlock the level for it, No need to buy it with bars. You also have to pay a fee to use it (it works exactly like fast travel posts in towns).

Sitting on 47 gold bars... I had only spent 1 on a lake lure when I was lv 14, when the salmon and trouts used to sell for 4,5 and another 4 gold bars customizing my Schofield revolver. The only thing that I want right now, its the Sombrero, wich im only 3 levels away, so there will go 8 more bars. After that I won't spent on anything else and will save it for future content, hopefully some mexican themed one. As a latin american myself, can't wait to dress as a Del Lobo-esque bandido.

Nope, blown that and all I have earned on making my guns look purty.

 

Figured I earned legit millions in GTAO, can do it in this as well if I need to!
