Economy Update

Hey all,   The server's economy is very important to us. You know this because we've been talking about "trying to get it right" for a while now. This article should give you a brief overview of the system we will have in place, and some changes being made today.   Our goals with the server economy are: - In-game prices should reflect real life prices - People should not get rich quick - Grinding shouldn't give players major advantage - Money is a tool to

Nostalgia

Hey all,   Hope you're ready for a trip down memory lane because as of now, our legacy forums are available to be viewed again. They've been transformed into a read-only mode, you won't be able to make, or edit any posts or send messages. So head on to check out the history of LS-RP and grab whatever you were missing over the years.   We've also made a thread in General Discussion to share cool finds.   Please note that the forums come with zero warranty or support.

Player Survey: May 2023

Hey everyone,   We’re pleased to launch the first in a series of community surveys which we’d like you to take part in.   This first one is quite broad and asks a range of questions about how you’re currently feeling about LSRP, what major concerns you have ahead of launch, and some specific questions about the systems that will be in place.   Your input is incredibly valuable to us.

Testing Progress and Trailer Remaster

What up LS-RP Fam,   Since the announcement of feature freeze we've been grinding testing, bug fixing and final touchups. So far we've confirmed over 46 bugs to be fixed and another 24 are pending retesting after they've been addressed by the development team. As it is, we face another 7 critical, 28 major and 73 minor bugs. While we'll try to address as many as we can, the main pre-release focus is on the critical & major ones.

We're done.

Hey all,   If you've been following along on Discord you've probably seen the great amount of progress we've been able to accomplish lately. I'm happy to say that after overcoming more hurdles than I was ready for, we're now done with feature development for the release.   Over the last month especially, we've been pushing hard to bring the last necessary features through the finish line. We decided to include more than initially planned because we felt like the server just c

July Update

Hey everyone,   I'd like to update you on what's been going on the last few weeks.

March Release Update

Hey everyone,   We've decided to once again move our release date. First and foremost, please accept our apologies.   I understand the frustration everyone must be feeling, and you aren't alone. Our biggest challenge is time. Every release date we've set, whether February 24st or week of March 21st, has been calculated based on current development team availability which has proven to change unexpectedly more often than not, leading us to continue to undercalculate our progre

Property Update: Business Applications

Hi all,   Today I'm happy to announce that we've now opened up the business section of the forums.  We've decided to allow players to apply for a business lease in order to establish business roleplay on the server initially.   There are plans to make these businesses buy-able further down the line once there is enough money in the economy for players to be able to afford these businesses. In order to encourage larger companies/factions to run these businesses we've decided that you mu

Release Update

Hello,   As I mentioned on Discord already, due to reasons out of our control we are unable to release on the 24th as originally planned. This is due to real life circumstances and an attempted break-in into my apartment because of which I had to spend the last week and some change making sure my family and I are safe. Although I've gotten some of my time back to focus on the finalizing work I would've been doing, I'm still not 100% back and won't be for the next few days as it's an ev
