Deewens Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Hi, I am happy to see that LS-RP will now be playable on GTA V! However, I was wondering why you choose Rage MP as a platform instead of alt:V? As far as I know, alt:V is significantely better than the others, and especially ragemp regarding the sync and stability, and also the scripting possibility? Here is a comparaison of the different platforms (Rage vs alt:V vs FiveM): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1g1LpSoPFQcXmUHUA__3KArFRH55TL49iSs2cT52jBi4/edit#gid=0 I know that you are not going to switch the script to work with alt:V now, but this is just something that I was wondering. Keep up the good work anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrisonius Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 I actually also wondered this and I asked MMartin on his stream. He told me that they chose Rage because it’s the platform most of their target audience already uses. Quote Los Santos crime family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i dont wanna od in LA Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 What's on that spreadsheet refers to the previous version of RageMP. The newest version comes with an anti-cheat (EAC), the sync is slightly better and that's it. There's really no good platform for text rp on gta5, each one has its issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DowDaw Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 I asked myself the same question but for fiveM instead, I wanted LS:RP to be in FiveM not RageMP. I personally see FiveM is way more popular and used more than RageMP, I might be wrong but that's how I see it for some reason Quote Tyler Reed - Department of Public Works & Transportation (Gov) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lead Developer Kane Posted February 13, 2022 Lead Developer Share Posted February 13, 2022 FiveM is marketed towards voice RP. alt:V seems promising but each have their own issue. Recent example, it took them a couple days to come out with a compatibility update for the new V update, even with the number of developers they have. So that's about 3 days of the server being unavailable while it only took Rage a couple hours to put out an update. But yeah, like I said, each have their own issues. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that reason is a big enough excuse, imagine your server being down and completely out of your hands for a number of days. It could be a Friday, Saturday and Sunday which are the most popular days. You may say people could find something else to do but imagine if say facebook or youtube were completely down for the whole weekend, the whole world would lose their shit.

It's a lot of downtime I also believe that the people who made Alt:V, were the same devs who sold GT-MP. Don't quote me on this. Either way, RageMP is much more popular than Alt V is.

Plenty of times alt was faster than rage in that regard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like it was said, there are plenty of players from LSRP, who are used to RageMP or played with this MP. 1 Quote Creating Motorcycle Club patches. Interested? -> PM Me on Forums.

jack Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Numbers and activity on each platforms matters too, since we're aiming to reach to the wider community! - Rage - Alt V Quote SHERIFF KENNETH J. LAROSA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deewens Posted February 13, 2022 Author Share Posted February 13, 2022 (edited) For the update thing, I think that either rage or alt:V would be the same. For me, the main reason for choosing alt:V would be a more stable platform and which take less server and client power. The sync is almost perfect with alt:V too. And the fact that there is no wrapper onto the native, you can use whatever natives you want directly. I don't think that the popularity of the platform matters. LSRP is already a popular name and a popular server. I'm sure you can ask people to switch to alt:v. We had the same problem with SAMP. SAMP was not the best alternative, MTA was clearly better, but every big server was on SAMP. Edited February 13, 2022 by Deewens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrisonius Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 (edited) The decision is obviously already made, but I don't think the numbers argument is really a valid one. When I wanted to play on GTA:W, I downloaded Rage MP. I wasn't just blindly browsing through the server list of an MP platform that I'd never heard of — I downloaded it because the community was attractive. And at the end of the day, it's all on GTA V, so it's not like the barrier of entry is exactly a big one once you've overcome the hurdle of getting the game. People literally just have to download a different platform, there is very little change for the end user. FiveM also wasn't big in the beginning, which I know because I played on FiveM servers before there were any with more than 32 slots. What made FiveM big was good communities with impressive features (NoPixel, DOJRP, Twitch RP, Family RP, etc.), it wasn't the other way around.

IdleStacks Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 (edited) Is ALT:V really that much better? What I've seen from RageMP and FiveM has definetely not impressed me (about as bad as SAMP before lagshooting was fixed). Obviously it's not gonna change but I hope RageMP really does improve a ton.

Caledonite Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 (edited) Both platforms have it's pros and cons. Personally I feel alt:V is rather more promising compared to RageMP, with it's continuous updates, better sync, helpful & great community and not too complex visuals & stuff. RageMP may have more users/players and bigger activity, that's mainly because there are more active and already largely developed (english) servers and it may have been around much longer than alt:V. Platform alt:V on other hand lacks many servers (lacks english ones, most are german there AFAIK), hence it has much less players and servers (pointing to unofficial statistics comparison above), but it does offer much simpler game joining than RageMP and writing a code is also equally easy to RageMP as well (my own experience), provided that people know how to code. As far as I can see, the minds of which platform is going to be used has been already made up. Discussion between two platforms appears to be welcome here, but in the end, it might not matter too much at the moment, who knows what will happen in the future.

Freedom Fighter Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 (edited) I played an Alt:V server some time ago. It's overrated, the client itself that is. I much prefer Rage:MP, even if Rage has its cons... that's everything in the end.

Allegra Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 I'm absolutely no expert on this, but I'm guessing that choosing between clients must have been a pretty big decision in the beginning, and not one taken lightly. Albeit I haven't actually played alt:V before. I was on FiveM for a bit but there was some to-do with the developers I believe? Either way, I guess it is what it is now. I've seen what RageMP can do and it's ballin'. Quote Decided to dip, at least for a bit. Reasoning and shit is here. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikee Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Alt:V is a good client, but it isn't popular enough. It is an unripe client and needs time to grow up and to enlarge its community. RageMP actually is literally growing up everyday. During the last year there were something like 15 thousands players and nowadays they count more or less 50/60 thousands players. RageMP is moving toward a stable version, an optimized version, and will probably reach its goal before the end of this year. 1 Quote BURTON AVENUE CREW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been following RAGE since 2017, still remember days when George (owner) was very active in the community and he was responding to almost everyone who needed help. It's really impressive how they've grown in the last 2 years. Edited February 14, 2022 by mtz64 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
