Title: the death of samp? or the rebirth of samp?
Post by: X~Shaheen~X on April 20, 2008, 10:49:36 pm
well im sure all of you know that its one week left for gta IV but something that has been on my mind. what will happen to samp? since gta IV already has multiplayer for everything exluding rpg pretty much everyone is switching. there will be some without systems or want to rp but everyone else is gona be gone. now what will this do for us? well i wanted to ask you

will it bring a better group of samp loving players into argonath? or turn samp into a ghost town?

whats ur opinion?

Well judging on the latest developments with the 'official' list and the current downtime it could be both.
If SA:MP would continue as they were doing before, I would say that after two or three weeks people would be returning once they played the new modes and found that 16-people DM is very different from SA:MP.

About SA:MP master list - I do not know what is going on...

About GTA IV multiplayer - cmon - 16 slots its not serious...
Also as I understood they will have servers modes like missioned team dm... MTA SA already is an example how fast such things get bored...

I suppose the next scenario: 29 April all are "Hooray!"... 31 April "Nah I ll go better on SA:MP - much more fun"...
Also do not forget that MTA:VC server is still active and some times its full 26/26 slots...

History:
3 years ago the biggest slots amount on MTA:VC were 17 players servers... Servers were full and funny... So who knows probably 16 slots is not that bad beginning... But that time nobody even imagined that there can be 100 slots on servers... After SA:MP 100-200 slots people will be bored on GTA IV...

Actually we suppose that PC version will bring more slots multiplayer possibilities, as for Xbox it will lag (no dedicated servers - only home host), that is why they stopped on 16 slots...

So I doubt SA:MP will be dead... I expect that people will run from GTA IV servers back to SA:MP...

Well they have added a freeroam game mode also for GTA IV, but 16 players aint much to play with

I looked at the Rockstars Website, they are not bringing GTA IV out for PC so SA-MP will live on.  :hurray:

well of course these servers are going to not be a great as GTA4 and such because that is a much better game than SA will ever be. But the thing is that dontcha think that once GTA4 gets goin they will also have a giant MP kind of thing here even know they will already have MP on the game? Hell in the future I see an Argonath GTA4 RP will 400 SERVER SLOT W00T!!!  :hurray:

Not likely.. unless some other group of developers makes a giant IV:MP client for it, but it doesn't look like SAMP dev's are up to it..

well...like the 2 bosses said. when gta iv comes out everybody wants to have it and they'll but it...ok!
but aragorn or Gandalf i dont think they will play only 2-3weeks, it could be months...never forget the offline modus!
and its very fun to discover all things in that gtaiv world! but as the online mode will be sh*t i think most of players will be back soon :D

 I never thought anything will happen to SAMP because of a new GTA4.. it has 16 players wow.. not really fun to play on a server with 16 people and whole liberty city to find and kill them..not really fun... Rockstar created GTA4 for the single player not the Multiplayer part.. GTA has always been about SP anyway.

 After people beat the shit out of GTA4 and maybe play some MP, I think people will be back on SAMP within 1 or 2 weeks. People who play on RP servers for SAMP will be back within days..

 Yes there will be some things to explore and have fun, but the new release of SAMP 0.2.5 is much cooler to me then GTA4.

All depends on how fast you will explore the GTA IV to be back to SA:MP... For one people it will be HeyWTFIamoff for others Howtopassthatdamnmission...
As for statistic of players - 99% of players never passed game on 100%... Mostly used saves and were more interested in cheats and modifications... So they will just pass a storyline... Also there are 30% of players who never even played GTA:SA and just joined the multiplayer... )))

For 3 years of MTA VC I met many people who were asking "Where is the bank?"... Especially after robbery scripts on two servers... Its with robbery mission of single player?.. hah
As for SA:MP - I was hiring a personal drivers lots of time... A huge amount do not know where to drive, for example Bayside was a problem for 99% of drivers... Caligula Palace - for 50%
Many people do not know the names of main characters, which means they did not pass all missions...

100% is not only passed missions... Its 100% hidden pockets, 100% specific missions (ambulance, pizza, vigilante, taxi), 100% unique jumps...

Even from stunt movies its clear stunters did not pass all unique jumps as they use in movies only 5 of them which are in every stunt movie...

And I doubt you passed 100% VC or SA... BTW about cheats - I still remember your stunt movie with handling hacks, Watti...

 Yeah Aragorn.. I think in SA I got to 2nd island in missions for Xbox.. then I quit. I beat VC SP without cheats but not %100 of the game .. after I was done with story I just quit the game... but now in SA I know where everything is possible.. maybe not main character story names though  :lol: all I know in SA is CJ, Sweet, OGLOC, Ryder, Big Smoke.. thats all i remember,

i beat story line missions then i download a %100. i REFUSE to spend a week of my life collecting boxes jumping taking pictures of things and swimming for oysters. not to mention the abulance police and pimp missions. i just want to know the story line then download %100 and go crazy . i have a save game edit where u can name missions and decide which turf is yours. i made whole of sa a deep balla turf it was a war zone lol then i told the save game that grove drove tanks and ballas drove bikes so it got evened out ;D

also i decided ballas drop no more than 10 bucks while when u kill a grove they drop over a million. great mod

Watti we are talking the real 100% of the game, that is all collectables, paint sparys and such.. all stunts all bonus missions...not just the story part.

Exactly what do 99%... Probably 99.9%...
With the multiplayer of future GTAs storyline will not be of the same interest... But 100% will pay attention right at multiplayer... If multiplayer will suck R* will lose more then "bad graphics" or "sucky storyline"...

I did San Andreas SP on PS2 with cheats and i completed it but i recompleted it on PC without cheats a a few weeks ago.

I completed GTA Liberty Stories. (no cheats)
I completed GTA 3 (cheats)
I completed GTA Vice City (No cheats)
I completed GTA Vice City Stories (Cheats after completing)

(i not even sure how to cheat on PC :lol:)

(( I will tell you one thing.  San Andreas is one of the greatest games of all time.  I mean come on, look how old San Andreas is, and many people are still playing it.  SA-MP will definately leave on at least one more year after GTA IV's release in my opinion.  Look at the world of opportunities opened in San Andreas Multiplayer.  There's no way it can lose to a sixteen (16) player slot online game. ))

   With the driver thing, I can literally recreate a map (not streets) and follow it, thats how many times i played SP on Ps2 with my neighbors for over like 4 years it was non stop action fun with cheats.

Watti I am sure nobody who knows you good even believed this post...
You cannot finish one deal and have at once "no time", so I doubt you had a patience to pass the same oysters for example... Unless you did not sneak the map and were running by map from oyster to oyster... This you can classify as "cheats" as well...
