Rockstars 5.0 - Open Beta Opened! Check first post!

[Zaila]

I am currently banned, am I going to be able to join the beta server?

Most likely, yes. Personally, i dont see any reason on wasting time to maintain bans from RS4 for a open beta testing period as it's, as i said, waste of time and we got better things to do. However, we will be VERY strict and if you are not there to test and help us find bugs, you will be banned to not disturb it.

Okay, thank you for answering.

Great news, excited.

I never said that only properties and what we is own is important; I was just mentioning that it's an important part for a lot of players because a lot of dedication and time was needed for those players to earn what they got. And we didn't have the advantage of a reset because we were moaning that we couldn't get our hands on a certain house or business.

The present situation is unfair. It's extremely hard to buy those big HQ's or Ammu-Nations because big families and groups control them, and aren't willing to sell them unless you offer millions of dollars. This means that it is hard to get a proper HQ for a reasonable price, if your group is new, and even if you have money.

And how do you think we got them exactly? Properties are a limited source, in a couple of years we will be in the same situation where we are today and then everyone is going to be asking for a reset because "they can't have what they want".

About your post about my experience:

Gvardia will still be there, but you should know that business empires are one of the most important things to groups. We built those empires through time and dedication, not by moaning because they weren't for sale.

If Gvardia is that dedicated and active, it will surely play a big role in RS5 too. I don't think it will take long before you'd fully own Queens.

The difference is that setting up a new group in RS4 is very hard at the moment. The potential headquarters are already owned by the 'big' mafia members and most of it has to be bought for millions.

A reset would create an opportunity for others to gain a specific territory which they couldn't due to the one's logging in once a month or less.

On the contrary, we have the drug market which is controlled by 2 or 3 kingpins. They are able to buy huge amounts and make big profits, if they feel like it. It will take months or years to become such a person in RS4.

If you would take a look at the online players on a regular basis, you would only see several members who have been here for longer than 2-3 years. The majority of the active players have joined after 2011, while they are not the one's with the most assets. It is more logic to give the active player base an opportunity to gain those assets and territories, instead of leaving it almost abandoned.

Looking foward for this.

[Manoni]

Amazing news, can't wait to see this.

Do us a favor when your in RS5, thank a scripter for the work they've contributed.

Of Course, they've been putting their biggest efforts on it, for all of us. It's the less we can do.

And someone wins a lotto, he becomes the "drug-king", he buys and sells until he can afford buying Corleone HQ, for example. What are you going to do, if that happens ?

We'll get over it and move on. No need to hate on someone because they're luckier or smarter. To be frank we need people who are luckier and smarter to give the criminal community stability.

I'll give it until next year that someone already managed to get the economy down to RS4, 

If that happens: 
WARNING !!! NO, THIS DOESNT MEAN IM LEAVING. THIS IS INTENDED AS A JOKE.
