So you're saying that SA:MP RS5 should be remembered for the limited amount of scripted abilities it can offer instead of the unlimited amount of opportunities it brings about with the scripts enhancing them? That makes no sense.
Yes, I am saying that, that's the whole damn point of a gamemode, the scripts. No one (should) judges gamemode by how it's used, that's how you judge the community, you judge a gamemode by what it offers in terms of scripts.
By your reasoning, RS5 could be a piece of shit on one community, but most amazing thing in the world on another community, just because people do different things with it. No. You judge it by it's technical aspects, what it does, what it offers, etcetera.. And quite frankly, you can't access huge portion of the scripts without investing MONTHS in one VERY tiny and limited area of the gamemode right now. That's what RS5 is known for now, not for the amazing trucking scripts or perhaps the system of renting out your flats, no, it's known for it's fire missions and how people use them.
It was cool in Beta, people had the means to try out all the wonderful features developers have invested months and months of time scripting, shit was cash, now? Now we're all enjoying fire duty and to some extent police duty. And when I mean enjoying, I mean grinding it for money. And it's hardly misuse if that's how the gamemode works in the beginning after a reset. Maybe in time, when people have businesses and trucking will fuel more money into economy, that could change.
