Tips

You can speed up your games by
double clicking on the data bank to deposit and withdraw money, this only
works for transfers between cash and bank, the loans still have to be
paid via the finance window.
|
 |
|
Always bank your cash. At the
begining of the game for the first day and until you actually see either
something to buy or a loan shark bank EVERYTHING. This will help you get
bigger loans when you are starting off. During the game bank all your
cash, except for 400 dollars that you should keep on you to enable the
game to offer you more pockets and for you to buy them. Interest is still
incredibly important to getting good scores.
|
|
|
|
Always buy the cheap drugs in
the first day or so, if you see cheap speed, hashish, weed, acid, crack
and even ecstasy, the more money you can make in the first few days will
help you get bigger loans and thereby full pockets of coke or heroin.
|
|
|
|
Always fight the cops. There is
no real merit in getting arrested by the cops so it is far more beneficial
to get the extra cash by killing/scaring hardass and his posse. This is
true on all the game lengths, with the possible exception of 15 day, You
will have to buy a weapon, whilst the monkey can be sufficient the chicken
launcher is far more accurate and will always prevent you from being killed,
but its also much more expensive. NB: make sure you have a full quota
of health for each day.

|
|
Visiting the doctor. Always sell
your stash of drugs before you visit the doctor as he has a tendency to
steal them if you're carrying. You can always buy them straight back once
you've been fixed up.
|
|
|
|
What if the doc nicks your kidneys?
You can get offered a kidney dialysis machine which will stop you from
losing more health from lack of kidneys. This is offered in the same was
as more pockets for your trench coat (see below) and therefore you need
to have a certain amount of cash on you (not in the bank). This is quite
a lot but I'll leave you to find out how much you need to have!

|
Heroin, Coke and MDA. Unless you
are at the very beginning of the game and a loan shark has not been released,
only stick to these three main drugs. Personally I only go for coke and
heroin. Always trust the old lady - sometimes she is wrong but when she
is right it really pays off. Start with heroin (except when coke is cheap)
then move on to coke as soon as you can.
|
|
|
|
Coke, Heroin, Coke. Following
a coke bust, always buy heroin, no matter how much it is. It often busts
within 2 days of the coke bust. If you have been able to take advantage
of a heroin bust, always buy coke on the same day as the bust, regardless
of price. *Coke busts often follow Heroin busts.*
|

|
|
Start again time? If you don't
have a major bust by 15-20 days, consider starting again. The restart
time should be judged with common sense and many dealers do it differently.
However, it is necessary to have about 20 million after 15 days (to make
a billion on 120 days) so take into account the amount of drugs you have
on you, the impact a bust would have if you got one in the next few days
and judge for yourself.
|
|
|
|
Pay off your loans as early as
possible except if you can't also fill your pockets with coke or heroin.
It's far more beneficial to have a full quota of heroin or particularly
coke at the beginning of the game than it is to have no debts. Also, on
the 15 day game, if your loan won't become due before the last day, don't
pay it off early. Wait for the game to automatically pay it off at the
end as even if it hasn't become due, it won't incur any increments.
|
|
|
|
If you are near the begining of
a game and have around 1 million in cash it can be helpful to split your
pockets between coke and heroin. eg 40 coke and 60 heroin (depending on
price of course)
|
|
|
|
Always change what you are dealing
in when the chance arrises, eg if you have Heroin and it goes to 10k and
Coke is at 15k sell what you have and switch to Coke, the same if Coke
goes above 26k and Heroin is below 6k. Dont just wait for busts and insist
on keeping one drug, you'll end up with very average scores, you must
keep buying and selling.
|
|
|
|
If you are ever given any drugs
(particularly the more expensive ones) then you should buy into that particular
product as it often busts the following day, I only tend to do this with
coke, heroin or MDA, but I've seen this happen with others too.
|

Use the calculator. This can be
very advantagous when you hear of a bust the following day and have enough
to buy most but not all of the drug which has been mentioned. Heres what
to do - buy as much of the drug as you can, make a note of how much empty
space you have left, then sell the drugs again, now open up the calculator
and multiply the amount of space you have by the cost of one unit of the
required drug, the total is the exact amount you need to borrow. This
saves you having too much and then paying more on interest, or too little
and not taking full advantage of the bust.
|

|
|
If you are carrying drugs and
press 'stay' when confronted by hardass , you sometimes hear a tip upon
being released, these tips are usually good. To take advantage of this
you might want to carry one unit of the cheapest available drug only (whilst
there isnt anything else worth buying) and press stay when you get chased.
The downside is that you will lose one day which you spend in jail.
