SA:MP 0.3 announced

[Dave]

Well we know a few people from the MTA team have full qualification etc, and have been successful in thepast with previous ideas of making multiplayers, and i am sure someone on the MTA team made GTA:Rumble or something close to that name

[Indigo]

  never heared about it till now..

[Joe_Mama]

In MTA:SA:DM youll be able to see other's moded skin too bad it still hasnt been released

[Gandalf]

It will be interesting to follow the next developments. If the MTA team is near finishing the project but needs some guys with time, they could use some added strength. On the other hand, if they decide to make their own multiplayer, it can be because MTA does not want them to take away the credits of the guys who worked on it, or because the MTA:DM is not stable.

As far as the reasons to leave, if you make something as a team you release the news as a team, there for as 'we'. But we read here only one side, the other side is silent....

STEAM is light years away from any multi player platform.

you may know this but for people who don't know read below..

As well as good news of sa-mp 0.3 progress there is bad news you can read about it here:
http://www.gtaconnection.net/page/policy/sa-mp/

and also here:
http://forum.sa-mp.nl/index.php?topic=5215.0

as a result of all this aru, peter and y_less/alex have left the sa-mp development team

Wow, a chunk of the SA-MP team left.

Even a hand full of SA-MP BETA Testers left the team.

That's going to slow the development of SA-MP.

Can happen that GTA IV release will stop all other GTA multiplayers at once... As it will be the first LEGAL multiplayer from original GTA developers...

I am not getting a new pc for ages and my current pc will not be able to run GTA IV anyway and San Andreas is good enough at the moment. SA:MP just keeps getting better and better so... I'll be playing SA:MP for a long time yet.

And it will probably suck. I love it when you have to script it with a third part programming language, but it's pobably going to be like clicking on the map you want here, clicking on the weapons you want there and so on. Pawn in my <3

So Argonath cant move to Gta IV?

So Argonath cant move to Gta IV?

Depends on three things:
1) If Argonath wants to have a less advanced server, more like a DM or TDM server.
2) If Rockstar North are going to let us use a programming language, but I can't believe they're going to.
3) If the Multiplayer team/MTA team is going to develop their own "illegal" modification for GTA IV.

Maybe they will create several game modes, like in SWAT4.
So probably, you will have a server setup, were you choose what weapons each skin has or how the wanted star thing will work.
 maybe it should still be possible to mirc script.
Maybe they will do a MMO with AI people and players.
I believe R* knows about SA:MP and VC:MP and that they will just do something like it but without a client, directly ingame.
