GTA Online players spend hours AFK for in-game items – review addiction

Last month for Grand theft auto online The Los Santos Tuners update was released, which, among other things, added a new hub for car enthusiasts to the game and a new reputation system with rewards for increasing it.

For increasing the level of reputation, players can gain access to new cars, race modes, clothing and discounts on vehicles. The maximum level is 1000, however the main rewards end at about one hundredth.

However, even to reach level 100, you need to spend a lot of time testing new cars, taking part in races and spending time in a new hub. For every 4 minutes there, gamers receive 10 reputation points.

Despite the fact that in the latest update Rockstar began to struggle with some ways of being AFK, players spend hours AFK in the new hub for the sake of reputation.

To prevent them from being thrown out of the game, gamers use various tricks, for example, deflecting the analog stick of the controller with an elastic band, which makes the character walk in circles.

Users estimate that it can take several days to reach higher levels using the AFK method. Players also note that after level 100, the AFK method becomes almost useless and that it is easier to earn reputation by participating in races.
