Title: Rockstar Version 4.1 - Now Available
Post by: Teddy on April 01, 2016, 02:43:28 am
Hello, Gandalf recently demanded we operate the RockStar version 4.1 scripts on the server due to script complexity regarding RockStar 5.x and the constant delays and troubles encountered. In compliance, you will now notice RS4 running in place of RS5.1. Please note due to script age and outdated mechanisms, the script might seem a bit sluggish after playing on RS5. In addition, the exact date of the current saves are unknown, they are roughly from between September and November 2013. Your account may, or may not still exist on RS4 using an outdated name. If you can remember the password and account, you can use that account. If not, you are free to create a new account.

Kindly,
Developers

P.S April Fools. However, RS4 is actually running and will continue to run for the day. Happy April. Don't worry either, no data is lost on RS5.1, you'll get everything back as soon as we resume the server.

Nostalgia.

Good to hear Teddy boy! I will enjoy playing it. And to add I can't join the nostalgia trip as the server keeps closing my connection..

I should note the current version is NOT fully functional since this is short term and we haven't made effort to fully upgrade the scripts for latest compatibility; some things cannot be done (e.g setting police ranks)

It's not a problem, if you remember the old account and the password then go on. If you don't, create a new acc.

At least there was some hope when I spotted a very small amount of players actually trying to roleplay in between the trolling, dm, shooting and other nonsense going on.
But then again why did we expect all of the players to take this opportunity to play RS4 again and use it wisely? Guess we were foolish.

[12:36:00] <iKhm_Pentangeli> (24) someone should keep this for a week
[12:36:04] <Matthew_Carter> (20) they might
[12:36:07] <Matthew_Carter> (20) if people don't abuse it

This is hapening only because they all know that this isn't going to last so they're not taking it seriously. That's why everyone is trolling, deatmatching and everything.
Also the ammount of registration money made them act like this.

You may create a new account, it's allowed, but the feeling of being in your original account isn't the same, I know.

I guess we all realized today how much RS5 is better in terms of standards. RS4 was total chaos, not sure if because of million dollars you get or because everybody took it as an actual joke and didn't take it seriously to use the same level of roleplay in RS4 as it is used in RS5. Shame every good thing HQ does becomes abused by a bunch of trolls who care of nothing but themselves.

I don't know why all the seriousness, I mean April Fools is supposed to be all fun and joke around and you did put RS4 in a day like this, people were in-game for fun and mess around else I wouldn't have recruited everyone and have fun...
Some people indeed have a point that people did not take this serious, neither did I - because why should anybody take it serious, we all know it's a temp-situation, nothing is gonna be lost if you spend alot of money, people did everything they can untill it lasted, I fail to see the problem in it?
Maybe people went a little bit too much with placing contracts, but admins could've controlled the situation if that was the case, 90% of the contracts were canceled afterwards anyway...
There's no need to be all serious and upset over things happend on a day like this, I myself would love to play on RS4 in a more serious-manner but I didn't do it because I knew it's going off very soon so I had the most fun I can have before it's gone. That's all

Amen.

And Richard is right, it's hard to take something that you know is temporary serious, what's the point of building a character that is gonna go down the drain in a day? It was nice for the nostalgia goggles for a few minutes though, and to cement how much worse 4.1 is compared to the current one, and even more so than 5.2 seems to be.

This small experiment have just proven that even if you have money, you won't role-play. It's also proven that RS4.1 can't be compared to RS5.1 and obviously RS5.2. People like always took the advantage of this and did what they wanted either in a good or a bad way but hopefully there will be consequences of the recent actions from few cunts. Thanks for the flashback of the memories, though. It was worth it.

P.s. the player base is still the same so........

Went online for a couple minutes and really felt nostalgic; Damn I miss the golden days!

I will literally drop all the shit going on in my life to play RS4 for a week but of course you guys had to fuck it up.

@Devin - Can you relate my topic to today's nonsense then?
Title: Re: Rockstar Version 4.1 - Now Available
Post by: Salmonella on April 02, 2016, 01:50:52 pm
Just wanna take a moment to thank whoever was behind reuploading the old RS4 scripts and database. When I first saw Gandalf's post I thought it was a joke, because everyone always said RS5 was rushed because the old RS4 scripts and database had been lost in a server crash, along with its backups. I always thought this was just an excuse and could never really believe there were no backups.

So when at 3AM a friend told me it was actually there, I was pretty blown away by it. I didn't think I'd be able to join, but turns out Teddy let me play after all. It was a real trip down memory lane and I really wish it could've lasted longer. I was there for a good amount of the day, but had nobody told me, I wouldn't have found out.

I think it's a real shame that it had to end so quickly and honestly I don't think some of the DMing and other shit were a good reason to get rid of RS4 prematurely. It's just a game and it's a shame to see so many people still get so buttflustered about getting DMed. Just return fire or accept defeat. It's also got to do with the new mindset in Argonath that has literally been starting to require people to roleplay absolutely everything, something I personally think is a bit autistic, but to each his own.

The point is, I'm willing to bet hundreds of old players would've joined had the server stayed up for the weekend or a week. These players would've had a great time seeing the old server again, their old money and cars that were so abruptly taken away from them at the launch of RS5.

I sure as hell had a great time and only got DMed by a newbie once. Also, to those saying RS4 was a CnR or DM script, you should realize that really has nothing to do with scripts but with the people using them. RS4 had some of the best roleplayers and some of most tedious freecops, simultaneously. The beauty of Argonath back then was that it had something to offer for everyone and forced the most elite roleplayers to interact with the newest newbies, getting the newbies on their way, and reminding those elitists that everyone has to start somewhere.

So, thank you for RS4, and shame it couldn't have lasted longer. It'd be interesting to see what happens if you host both RS4 and RS5 simultaneously. One server for those who want all these new strict RP rules, and one for a more relaxed playing style like it always was in RS4.

There were backups, but they were from months ago at the moment of the crash so they decided to launch RS5 instead
