Would like some sort of heads up display that showed how tired my CK is.
Doesn't need to be exact, just needs to give me a rough idea of how close to exhausted I am. Especially needed when in the lounges/back rooms, hate spending time in there looking for needed/wanted contacts only to be told I'm to tired to use them when they show up.
Also for the lounges/back rooms it would be nice to be able to pay the waiter/bouncer/attendant to "spread the word" that I was looking for specific sorts of contacts in order to increase the likelihood of them showing up. Example I give the bouncer ¥100 and tell him I'm looking for someone buying Data and there is a a 10% greater chance of those types showing up.
Final request would be for V Chips to automatically install when I get them. It's a real pain in the ass to have to exit a location and install them manually. Heck nowadays you can just have your cell phone/pda squirt your contact info automatically to someone else's device, no need for chips or to manually type in the data by hand.

xdesperado - thanks for the three pieces of feedback! 1) We are working on a better system for getting tired in Backrooms, as we know it is really frustrating. Providing a way to see your Exhaustion level and also pay for some stims in the backroom to combat it would be a great start. 2) Great suggestion about spreading the word. We need to enable more options that make the Backroom less of a passive wait-and-see situation. Great one! 3) I understand this one is annoying, but is tied into how items are handled in the game, and some of the longer-term plans we have for things like V-Chips. Great feedback!

xdesperado - i have added a simple "Credit / Exhaustion" ticker to the Backroom so you can see this information as you work there.

One final suggestion is for a skip all button at start of new games. reading the text for all those screens is great the first time or two but after that it's just annoying to have to click through them all, before you go to the bar and click a bunch more times to get Vinnies V-Chip, then leave bar and install V-Chip, then go back in the bar and call Vinnie so you can click through several more screens to get your first job.... My thumbs get sore just thinking about it!

I have a LG Optimus V, when I start a new game I can bypass the intro screen by pressing the back button.

Just used back button too skip the whole talk with Vinny and go right out with his V-chip. This is either a bug or one of those things we do not think about till we are in severe but happy pain lol!

Yes, that took a lot of work for me to make the dialog, back button, bonuses, states and all the code work.
Took days of testing and coding -- not a bug.
