Development Updates

Minor Update 1.4.1

Hello again from another update post! First off, some colours have changed! To better help you distinguish who is responsible for what, we have changed some of our staff rank colours. This will help players, and staff, figure out who to approach for their problem.   For example, management has been changed to orange (the colour of the R in the LSRP logo) to separate them from Lead Admins and Senior Lead Admins as the former generally does not perform basic administratrion like

We need to talk ...

Hey everyone,   The last dozen or so posts we've made have been more or less pragmatic, to inform everyone about updates & what to expect next. It's been a while since I made a post about the server and its direction in general. I want to open a honest dialogue about where the server currently stands, and how we can move onwards and upwards from here.    There's no sugar coating it — we're in a tough position right now, from multiple angles. The player base has been stabl

Hello,   Today we're releasing our first Major Update 1.1. Let me share some thoughts on the features that are implemented, how the development process will change going forward, and what our immediate next plans are.   We've listened to your feedback on forums, Discord, game, and basically anywhere you were willing to share it.

Stability & Updates!

Hello,   I'm happy to say that after a rocky first few days, our game server is now stable. If you were facing connection issues before, you should be able to log in game now. If you experience crashes after loading the game, this may be due to your mods or other issues we haven't properly diagnosed yet that affect a very small % of the playerbase. For the majority however, you're good to go in-game! If you're unsure how to, check out our How To Play step by step tutorial.

Feature Demo: Drug System

Hey guys,   At our most recent community meeting, we gave everyone an exclusive look at what the drugs system will look like at launch. We're now ready to share this with the wider community - check out the video below.     The Comms and Player Support Teams are also hard at work creating new, updated pages for LSRP's Wiki - this means that more detailed feature documentation will be made available closer to release.

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. Although the first iteration of the server’s script is complete and going through b

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

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. Despite a bunch of bugs being found recently as testi

Rules of Engagement & Faction Team Public

Hi all,   Rules of Engagement The Faction Team has completely re-written the Rules of Engagement and this has now been finalized.  The Rules of Engagement may be subject to amendments/changes after server launch. A Q&A topic will be created in the Faction Team Public Section to ask questions about the ROE.   No suggestions for alterations to the ROE will be taken until at-least a month after the server has launched and it has been trialed.   The Rules of Engagement c

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

As promised, it's July 13th so we're bringing you more information on the release timeline.   When does LS-RP come out?

LS-RP:V Release Date (emotional) (shocking)

Hey everyone,   Hope everyone's doing well and getting ready for the holiday season. December was always special around LS-RP, I remember all the treasure hunts and winter/Christmas events we used to hold. I'm looking forward to seeing something like that in-game again as we celebrate the season... next year.   It's been quite challenging over the last few months to keep track of the remaining work.

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
