Ethereal235 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 So BAWSAQ is apparently based on what players do & purchase. Everyone's buying up AmmuNation right now, because it's considered safe. I sort of want to see if we can affect trends of low priced stocks with any efficacy. I just bought a bunch of 'Hawk and Little (HAL).' Anyone else want to try the same, see if we can influence the market in a way that's beneficial to folks on X360A? I think it's $0.78 a share right now, so it's not exactly hard to buy shares. The SEC can kiss my (character's) ass(es)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barad Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I think it would take maybe thousands of players for it to take noticeable affect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killerchronic Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 How much did you invest? I imagine its going to have to be considerable to boost. But i will throw in a some on my chars and see what happens i guess. Noticed ammunation was up lots earlier, wish i had thought more about the stock market yesterday lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethereal235 Posted September 18, 2013 Author Share Posted September 18, 2013 I think it would take maybe thousands of players for it to take noticeable affect? I chose a low, low, LOW one specifically because it'll be easier to buy more shares. I'm mostly just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm willing to buy loads of stock, it's profit anyway but like fox said I doubt we'll see any change. We'll need a LOT of investors lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveBodom Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 So is it actually taking any effect? I sort of assumed BAWSAQ wouldnt come into play player influenced until Online was released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the real a 0bsolete Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I don't think it gets updated for a while. Maybe every 12 or 24 hours. wait, so the stock is connected to xbox live? and all the people playing GTA v influence the stock price?? fuckin A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spock Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 wait, so the stock is connected to xbox live? and all the people playing GTA v influence the stock price?? fuckin A The BAWSAQ Market is influenced by others and the other one is all just single player stuff.

I sort of assumed BAWSAQ wouldnt come into play player influenced until Online was released. It hasn't yet, but nothing I've been watching has changed, so I think Spock's right, and it updates periodically. Updating in real time would be very computationally expensive, so it makes sense that it'd update periodically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AwoL DudE Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 The BAWSAQ Market is influenced by others and the other one is all just single player stuff. Never knew that, thanks for the info. Not got much cash yet, but grabbed some Amunation stocks. Reckon the Auto repairs/mods will be an earner as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethereal235 Posted September 19, 2013 Author Share Posted September 19, 2013 I really am wondering now when this stuff updates. Glanced over the recent time history stuff and it does look like it updates once a day, but I want to see what, if anything, happens today.

Access internet via phone or computer, go to Money section and then the LCN or whatever it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
