| Quote SolarLiner (  ) Nobody is calling when I steal a car because I have unlocked a hack that disables the alarms and locking systems
That is not what I meant. I meant stealing cars when somebody is inside by draging the driver out. Then people call the police a lot.
Quote SolarLiner ( ) Being on the "good side" of the rep bar makes that you can run around not paying attention to the news and the citizens, but I have a friend who is way down in the rep bar and almost everytime when he buy guns, the news goes "If you see this man, notify police immediately" and he has to threaten the vendor to stop him from triggering an alarm. Also, people who recognize you while being marked as criminal and random people will eventually cal the police.
I didn't know that it was really that bad when you go far down in rep since I am always maintaining a good rep, but the difference between 'citizen' and 'vigilantine' is still nonexistant, that is the problem.
Quote SolarLiner ( ) Else, yeah, with only 20 different crime scenes you will quickly get bored doing them. But you sure need them as they make your rep go way up, and I do them after killing cops, because those gets your rep down (when you shoot at the knees, it's "fine", but if you happen to shoot wherever else, it's not fine at all).
I think that it is far less than 20. I can only remember the mugging(2 variants), the holdup, the arson, the hitman, the assault(3 variants) and the shooter(the one with the victim sitting on a bench, this one is really annoying and hard to prevent) crime scenes. That is a total of 9 crime scenes, not including the ones that happen spontaneously(an additional 2)
Quote SolarLiner ( ) But for me the best is the car chases, with all the power of ctOS in your smartphone, even 10 cars after me is nothing, in 2 minutes of pursuit I have taken them all down.
This is because your car becomes as sturdy as a tank once you enter it. I actually find this bad since it takes away from the challenge. Even putting that aside, practically the only ways of taking someone down is ramming them, blowing up a steam pipe below them, activating the traffic lights or raising bollards/spikes. Even this is oversimplified since you get the 'Neutralize' option every time you can take someone down - it takes away from the challenge again. There should be an option to turn this off for the ones that want a better challenge.
Quote SolarLiner ( ) Surprisingly, I more or less spent as much time playing poker that I do doing mssions.
I found it pretty fun too, though the cheating mechanic(hacking the camera and seeing the cards) sucked.
Quote SolarLiner ( ) Drinking games are super-hard!
I only found the one with the redneck in Pawnee very challenging, otherwise the rest are relatively easy.

| DoctorOfSpace, I would like to try this game out with mods and really see the potential of it. The franchise does have some hope though, I feel like if there is a sequel it could be good.

| For someone who played the original Elite game in the 80's this looks pretty cool:
Graphics have improved since then:
I wonder that games look like in another 30 years...

No. It's mainly a trading game.
