Well, it's kinda kewl and all, but it's disappointing also. Wouldn't feels so bad if I *hadn't* used my time and patience to become better in the first place!

It could've been worse. You could've lost your money too.

Yup. That would've been enough of a bummer to stop playing completely OR not continue with the story line, just building up your empire where you are.

Well, you don't really need money in this game once you master a few weapons. Get Hitman level for your nine, micro-SMG, and AK47. Free nines and AKs are scattered across Los Santos. I haven't come across micro-SMG yet.

So long as you have at least $10k for the rainy day, you don't have to worry about the money.

Well i've mastered AK47 and SMG (mp5 yo) early in the game... And gang fights are fun, somewhat tedious, but fun. And your allies are real dumb fucks, they can't take shit damage and they can't kill shit either. And you can't take more than three of them in a car with you (I think)!

It'd be just like Road Warrior. Only I don't think the game would let you do that...

Gang wars in SA suck and gang members in SA suck. I hardly lost any hood at that mission because I didn't bother to get it in the first place because it was a pain in the ass.
How appropriate. You fight like a cow.

Also, I was shocked about being a black guy. I kept trying to shoot myself in gang-wars, over and over again, but then I figured it out and bought brightly colored clothing.

The lose-your-kit thing is way overdone.

First you lose all your turf and weapons in the Green Sabre, then you lose your weapons again in that Nang mission with the helicopter and in between you lose a gun everytime you get a "new" one for the course of a mission (knife replaces your melee in that OG Loc mission with the mansion, silent pistol replaces your nine in another one, you lose your heavy weapon after the first Zero mission where you fire the minigun, etc).

They should have made the mission weapons (especially the useless ones -- you can easily kill all the guards in the mansion with headshots and you never ever need the muffler in the mission that replaces your pistol with it) single-use pickups rather than force them onto you.

I had roughly three thousand shots of pistol ammo and Hitman when it all went to waste because my peon was introduced to the crappy muffler with 40 or so shots of ammo.

It'd be better if you could keep your ammo rather than discharging it all just because you pick up a different gun.

Stop whining, if you don't suck you'll have plenty of money. At least, enough to buy any weapons with enough ammo till the end of the game.

The last mission pissed me off with that. I had Hitman with the MP5 SMG and something like 7,000 bullets for it, but then there's that chase at the end and I lost my thousands of MP5 rounds for about a hundred Tec-9 bullets.

lol? What's the big deal? You get like 300 rounds from the dead every time you take over a hood.

Yes, but I had already busted my balls gathering enough hood to do the last mission, and I didn't want to get any more because gathering hood pisses me off. And it's just a shitty thing to do to the player in any case.

Yeah, that's exactly what I hate as well. I guess it's time for a mod? :chick:
