I thought the plan was to delay the server until it was feature rich so you had a comparative advantage against your major competitor? 1.5 years later and you release a barebones server anyway, that looks like it needs another 1.5 years of dev. Frankly, I think you guys severely underestimated the market for text-based GTA 5 RP. Some of you probably still think there are hundreds of players out there waiting to discover or move over to LSRP. There isn't. It's a limited subset of a community that's largely focused on voice RP, and the market isn't growing. It also doesn't help that there's now a 3rd player entering the market soon that will likely take a chunk out of your share of the pie too... This is a masterclass on how to fuck up a server launch. Your best bet was to offer something different from everyone else; instead, you open a server with a meta that came straight out of 2013 SAMP. No one wants to grind 40 hours of fishing just so they can RP what they actually want. You guys have done nothing innovative or interesting with this concept despite some of you having more than a decade of experience in GTA RP, and it's really disappointing. It's like you were banking on riding the wave of SAMP nostalgia and GTA W hate to establish your community. Now you're stuck trying to make a PB of 150 W rejects and ban evaders somehow "work". Judging from mmartin's sarcastic responses and constant deflection, it doesn't sound like you guys are smart enough to take the criticism to heart. Good luck.
