Reason why Los Santos is populated because it brings back the gang culture which is infact the storyline of the game in singleplayer. And indeed you do spend quite alot of time in Los Santos as CJ.

Funny that when Me, Romeo, Pablo, and few more individuals was giving actual suggestions , plans, and ideas, most of people on this topic who're now 'omg lets populate other cities', took a big shit back then.

Now that we actually made most of San Fierro populated, after 3 years of hard working, now you got the idea into your head.

Well sure, try it, but not in San Fierro, where there's already everything developed, go try it in Las Venturas, in Fort Carson, in Angel Pine, in Blueberry, yeah go start from scratches, like we had to, while most people who posted on this topic, was shitting on us, in the same time.

The reason Los Santos is morei nteresting is because the suspects hang around it - reason: Cops mainly use LSPD, and of course they want to be chased for fun....
I think if the cops moved out, so would everyone else.

All stated reasons combined actually, but the main reason is what Trane gave example of.


Play for fun and friendship, not for stats or achievements.
If you do not want to roleplay, log off. Remember that "do not force RP" does NOT mean you can refuse to interact with other players.

That wouldent help, it would make LS a paradise for Criminals.

The only way to move to another city is to close down the others, remove houses and businesses and shit, then people would move :P

There have been attempts at populating other cities before. Guess what - Los Santos remains the hub of most of the activity in Argonath. There are groups scattered around San Andreas like Gvardia in SF and .......... nothing in LV or the counties.

Los Santos is based off of Los Angeles, one of the most interesting cities in the world. There are PLENTY of places to roleplay: Ganton for negro street gangs, East LS/El Corona for latino gangs, Downtown LS for businessmen, Rodeo for your typical suburban life et cetera.
Population of LS: Most of the newbies, a large amount of cops, gangs and criminals looking for a chase/shootout - constant activity.

San Fierro is just full of shitty roads and completely bland architecture. You couldn't really roleplay anything there even if you tried (herr i am mafia look at me our mafia are the only ppl in this town we control it :D)
Population of SF: Gvardia and a handful of cops.

Las Venturas has been used for casinos and that's the only good thing that LV has. It's basically a desert area, the architecture is bland and unappealing like SF. You have the Strip and craptons of white suburban areas - it leaves little for street gangs to go on.
Population of LV: SWAT

The numerous Hicksvilles scattered around the counties - They're way too small for anyone to even consider staying there all the time. There's no hope for the small towns.
Population of Hicksvilles: Criminals waiting to get unsuspected, kidnappers

If there's a large amount of people in only one city (say, 120 people in LS) instead of everyone spread around San Andreas (60 in LS, 30 in SF, 20 in LV, 10 in the counties) it makes the server feel a lot more alive. I can honestly say that most of Argonath's players would prefer one large, alive city than a big number of ghost towns.


It's extremely nice to keep on talking about how 'I wish there were more people in x' but I bet most of you would still spend a large chunk of your time dicking around Los Santos like you do now.

[citation needed].

But you're right, LS is the most colourful city, in a meaning that LS has a bit of everything and that's why (but not being the only reason why) many players decided to stay, SF is dull while LV has got almost only casinos/hotels and is expensive as fuck.

Small towns could be attractive if it wasn't the fact that they lack of almost everything that a big city has, which forces them to go to the big cities anyway. Since they're small, you wouldn't need as much people to populate it as the big cities (LS, SF, LV).

Well all, what about setting more houses buyable in SF/LV/anywhere else because for example, I was searching for a nice house in SF but the ones that were buyable are owned. Just an example.
Hello you must be new to Argonath RPG  :hah:
Anything that's a house is buyable as a house, you just need a property admin to set it if it's not set already. There's no sense in pre-setting places if no one is going to use them anyway.

Los Santos - The city for the street gangs.

Las Venturas - The city for the rich people and casino owners

San Fierro - Rich gangs, rich people, the city with oppertunity.

Flint County, Red County and Whetstone - Farmers, also people who want to remain hidden.

Bone County - The desert, random people.

Sort this up, everyone select they city after their goal in the game, people doing the choice and let them do it. House is already for sale and Angel Pine will not get populated as Richman for exemple. Leave it as it's, no need for a change.

Heard of Richman/Mulholland? actully LS is the city for rich people, ( famous for Hollywood, ect... )
