Moving Forward (Discussion Topic)

[DCF]

Please keep it respectful and relevant when commenting.

Moving on forward, we closed the SA-MP server a couple months ago, and we've moved on, I would like the Management team to be transparent & talk to us about their plans with the RAGEMP server. I.e how will they plan on advertising, what are the plans to bring players to the server? The current state of the server player wise, is without a doubt more or less in the most respectful way, worse than what we had on SA-MP. 

Comment your thoughts, opinions, suggestions and please be respectful. Thanks.

theres just nothing to do in game businesses open once every three-four days no real reason for players who are established on other servers to move here no advertising the name brand alone wont do anything

Well from my understanding a lot of people attempted to come back but it was like; as stated above, nothing to do.

 

SD/PD were too harsh on players simply checking out the script at launch. I mean the script offers a lot but nothing outstanding from other servers with a higher population.

I guess the veteran roleplayers giving management their advice wasn’t crazy work after all…

 

I would like to speak with a rage insider at this moment in time to get their thoughts on things 😆

ls-rp SAMP reopening! 🔥

I'd like to remind people about the ongoing UCP Feedback Survey announced in the recent Operations Update, which we encourage everyone to take part in; while we are continuing to work on things, this helps give us a clearer picture of areas of the community you feel need attention or improvement

There was nothing wrong with the original Rage MP script, only minor issues that I experienced. But there was a time when LS:RP had that exclusivity where it was the only true server for GTA RP (to the standard that we like). That time has long past, gaming and gamers today have many servers to choose from and they're not gonna grind for hours to get a car let alone a gun on a low population server. 

You gotta get them in the door. Cars, guns, drugs and houses for everyone that registers a faction. The main priority needs to be getting new blood, and flushing out the toxic as you go. Remove the red tape and the grind! Let the people homestead the server.

No bashing, just my opinion!

 

Staff fumbled this from the jump imho. This is what they did wrong according to me and some of my friends.

 

1) Instead of "we're opening the server in "February" " management should've came out loud and clear with a date. You have no idea how many friends of mine did not know about the opening date. Because you can simply not revive a PB with guesswork, you do it with CLEAR direction and incentives. If we knew that the date would be 28th of February, I would have reached out to more friends and have them join the server.

 

2) About the illegal scene and IFM : Realistically, when you have something like 25 factions in the server, 12 gun schemes, 13 drug schemes, the applications should have been opened, some sort of guaranteed placement during this period. Should've given people reason to actually log in and build something, everyone should've gotten a foothold first, then tighten the rules after

 

After all that, yes, you're more than welcome to enforce full formalities and standards, but atleast you have kickstarted activity instead of suffocating it, right now there is no push and no reward, no clear structure, just a server expecting RP to magically appear, unfortunately that is not how it works, but hopefully it is not too late and the staff reflects.

Create a RP Hub like how when GTAW launched in 2018 with little to no scripts, people still logged in and hung around Mirror Park Plaza as it was the server’s hub back then. This limited the vastness of the map to a small, condensed area.

So, can we get some sort of statement from Management? I really don't understand how the staff and leaders of this community and server expect the server to bloom out of nowhere, it's getting out of hand. Just what happened last time when V launched, this was also said multiple times couple months ago on samp... predicted multiple times.

In my respectful opinion, as I am tired of getting warned by the admins and my posts being deleted, I am being completely respectful here. LS-RP is a product of the past and missed the chance to innovate with GTA 5 a long time ago, which is how GTA World has been able to completely dominate, they have literal teams and a solid business model and it works for them. THIS community thrives on SA-MP, it is not meant to be a Rage MP community. They should really embrace what they are designed for and work off of it. GTA:W is basically the ONLY english text based RP server I have seen on Rage MP. You can keep trying to compete, but you really need the backing they have, no one is leaving their safe spot for LS-RP. For real, just go back to SA-MP again. This is not working with 15 players. The bar has been set extremely high by the competition, with all of their systems, features etc. Unless it can be matched over night, this, and I am being respectful and truthful again, is a lost cause. Please do not delete this admins, a reality check is sometimes needed.
