but i feel they are legitimate, and i dont think theyve been asked before.
(probarbly because they cant be answered with much certainty yet, but still... its good to speculate)

1: will you start the game with a fancy house like the one in the demo, or will you have to "work your way up" from what is basically a hovel?

2: what kind of car(s) will you start out with? or will you not have a car and be forced to buy one? or will you perhaps start out with an exotic? (that would be a shame, i like working my way up)

3: will everyone have their house in the same neighborhood or even the same house? or is everyone assigned a house at random? (im thinking online here)

4: when you buy a new house, will you be able to keep the old house? (why would you?)

5: how customizable is your avatar? is it sims/oblivion -esque or is it just a set of premade avatars or something inbetween?

6: why are you going to be able to purchase new clothing for you avatar if you cant leave youre vehicle? whats the point?

well... thats all i can think of now, but i might add some later...

errrmmmm i was told you start with about 200 thousand and you have to buy a house and a car....and yes i think you HAVE TO BUY A HOUSE....no way out of it
and i think you have a little money left to get a small little astra or somthing

1) You will have to work your way up. The cheaper houses are smaller and hae smaller garages

2) I think there are 4 cars that you can start off with. You have to first hire a car before you get the option to buy a car. You have to start with a 'bog standard' car.

3)Houses will not be online

4) You can buy new houses and sell old houses. There are 65 in all each with their own garages. You would keep houses so that you can own more cars.

5) You are a person. You can customize your face and the way you look. You can also buy new clothes from stores across the island.

6) Because your person will show up when driving the car and in the house. Also in convertables ect. You will be seen easily

Hope that answers all your questions :)

Welcome to the forum! :)

I'd hesitate a guess and say that 2 of the starting vehicles would possibly be an MX-5 Miata and the Volks R32.

oh i know i am... and how do i know i am?

well its because every day i look at some ingame footage (from the demo), curse the devs for not releasing a pc demo, get a yurning for speed, play NFS:MW, curse it for not beeing TDU, curse TDU for not being released yet, curse the devs again for not releasing a pc dem and then i go to bed...
somewhere in between all that i get to squeeze a meal in too... most days
