    You busted Niko_Belic out of jail. Leave it to the pros then From your personal stats... People busted: 10 Wtf are you complaining about 'impossible to bust now'... not like this was ever an issue to you xD

    That's the idea. To remove some of the incentive from busting and to limit busting to either... a) Something interesting to do instead of crimes occasionally b) Getting a friend out of jail or being a good Samaritan c) Being …

    That isn't really a compromise that will benefit anyone... especially those with PA aspirations or those already in PA teams ... We already avoid any crime that gives a jail result like the plague as it is :/ The loss …

The announcement is in, busting changes are there xP

Pertinent now improves bust chance rather than decreasing cost? Not sure how I feel about that... but I guess they couldn't really do anything else about it.

There is no one in jail at this time.


As long as its so easy to bust, going to jail will continue to hold very little meaning. I miss the days when being hospd or going to jail was truly an inconvenience.

personally, like using nerve a little more...means i can train my energy now instead.

That is if busting still provides a lot more xp than crimes.

Are you sure you want to buy yourself out of jail? It will cost you $1,231,200 to do so. Yes No

Holy hell... well I guess those days of quickly bailing myself to resume busting are gone...




Did just manage 6 busts in a row there though... 'harder'? Feeling about the same so far... maybe it's just too early for me to tell yet... but i've certainly been sat in jail longer than I have for a long time.


Ok... jail is starting to fill up a tad now xD 24 hours in jail... err... bust please?
Thufir [1569410] · #15

Well the 24 hour jail time for failed busts that was not mentioned in the post certainly hurts. That alone will help fill the jails since time in jail is a main factor in the difficulty. This almost makes me want to have self busting have some kind of bonus again. Certainly not the % gain from the past, but it is very clear we will be spending more time in jail, and more self reliant on getting out.

This may be what finally gets me to stop level holding. Been at 35 for almost 2 years now, that upgrade button just got a whole lot more tempting.
