I'm thinking about starting SA:MP (again, after about a year). The reason why I quit in favor of VC:MP (which I eventually quit as well) is the fact that everything is so much more difficult in SA:MP.
Can someone explain to me how you make the kind of money to buy a house, license, and car? I couldn't break 20k after a month, and that was selling weed (the only thing anyone would actually pay for).
In VC:MP, I made 50k (and I had more from a year ago) a week after I started back up. It just seems that SA:MP is incredibly based around players that have been here for years and have millions of dollars to spend on anything. I always felt that I needed to conserve money to the fullest, and buying food and gas was even an expensive endeavor.
