Factions & Firearm Licensing Illegal faction members are strictly prohibited from holding or using a PF license to use in acts of crime or violence. Currently a great deal of players are using a legal license just to dodge illegal firearm charges when your character is supposed to be a career criminal or gang associate. Not only is this unrealistic, but it also avoids any requirement for your faction to develop inter-faction relations with any verified or official gangs, who do have weapons available. Anyone caught carrying on a PF license will have the weapon(s) removed, their license revoked and face a faction strike or individual punishment.

Hello again gang, You may have seen my announcement on discord yesterday, if not - here it is again. Again, I'd like to thank everyone from the general community who've stuck around and supported us over the years and to the staff and development team who've been working tirelessly to get this show on the road. We're all extremely excited for the general community to have server access, and see the new and the improved features available. I'd like to note that we've crammed as much of the work our development team have been doing in before our public launch, but we've also got features currently in the pipe-lines to be tested and added to the server. We'll have a lot of exciting announcements and updates coming throughout the next few weeks and months. I'd like to remind everyone that while launch day can be exciting, that the server rules will still apply. The staff team have received alot of feedback about quality of roleplay throughout the server, the prevalence of death-matching and unrealistic behaviours etc. We will be taking a firm stance on rule-breaking and the standard of roleplay across the server, so please try to work with us and be on your best behaviour once you gain access. We want to make this experience fun for everyone, but that requires some cooperation from the community too. Many of you have been wondering what's new, and what's changed - we've been busy compiling and publishing the feature documentation, which you'll find here: Feature Documentation. This collection will be growing throughout the day to allow you to get familiar with the many of the features available before getting in-game this evening! I also wanted to thank everyone for the incredible amount of interest in illegal factions. Our list of unofficial factions seems to be growing by the day, with some extremely tenured roleplayers making a reappearance. As some of you may be aware, Official Factions were given the opportunity to directly transfer their Official status to RAGE. I'd like to also announce the official factions which have joined us. A massive shout out to E/S Playboys 13 (formerly 38th Street), Valenti Crime Family and Hell Runners Motorcycle Club. We've also selected several factions as Verified, which may be a new concept to those who've only experienced SAMP, if you'd like to find out more about faction advancement, please follow this link - S/O to Delegation of Tribe Rukn, Los Renegados Motorcyle Club and The Mexican Mafia. We're so excited to see the roleplay that comes out of these factions, and all of the unofficial factions who've joined us pre-launch. Finally, we will be limiting access to staff/developers only from 2PM GMT/3PM server-time to allow for the final updates, restarts and general cramming that needs to be done before opening the doors at 6PM GMT/7PM server-time.

excited to see this in action, gl gang

Hello gang! We've recently announced on Discord that we're allowing a select group of people (Staff, RAGE Insiders, Donators & Early Supporters) to have the first opportunity at accessing the RAGE server tonight from 6PM GMT. This is intended as a thank you to everyone for their support, and particularly our Staff and RAGE Insiders team who've put an incredible amount of work into preparing this next chapter alongside our Development Team. We know everyone is itching to get in, for those who aren't being granted access at the moment, this pre-release window is only going to last a few days in which we can ensure that everything is working as expected before we grant access to the wider community. If you do wish to donate to join, you'll require an active Premium subscription - this is entirely optional as we'll be opening our doors in the coming days. For further information on Premium, head to Premium Central. In the coming days, we will also be releasing a great deal of feature documentation and general guides to ensure everyone's aware of the features available, and how to use them. We will be discussing these new and not-so new features in our soon-to-come announcement regarding the public launch date! For those that join us this evening, please remember that this is a work-in-progress and some minor or niche bugs may have managed to slip under our noses, we ask that you please refer to the following: Bug Reports If you've found any areas you believe can be improved, or would like to create a suggestion for our development team to review: Suggestions Please note; Early Supporters will need to be granted access manually which can only be done if your Discord & UCP are linked, if you haven't been added by the above time - please reach out to be added through our discord ticket bot! The server has also been subject to a weapon & drug wipe, all other assets should remain as they were when you last logged in including properties. If there's any issues or unexpected changes, please reach out for support.

big up @Conor

We'd like to start this month's community announcement with the following message from Mmartin: Hey everyone, I hope you're all doing well so far in the new year. I'd like to address the plans we have coming up for LS-RP in the very near future. The more keen-eyed among you have probably spotted a "February 2026" card at the end of our last LS-RP RAGE Return teaser. I'm happy to say confirm that after months of hard work by our dev team (huge shout-out to danut and n0de101 who led the RAGE development), we're crossing our t's and dotting our i's to be fully ready to re-open. This comes at a convenient time, as as of today we're shutting the SA-MP server down. I'm thrilled by having had the opportunity to relive the days past and taking SA-MP for one more ride. We've developed dozens of new features that we could only dream of back in SA-MP's heyday, and the run SA-MP had was much longer (also more fun, and at times more challenging) than we initially anticipated. So all in all I'm happy to call the re-run a success, and can't wait for you to see what we've been cooking up on the RAGE front. While we have a rough date to open doors (ports?) internally, we still have some last bridges to cross before feeling confident committing to and sharing a concrete date. It's this month however, so expect more information on dates, features and factions very soon. We'd also like to give a massive shout out to our media team and RAGE Insiders who've made the effort to showcase and highlight some of the server's legal factions in the most recent teaser for RAGE: Commerce & Estate Team In preparation for RAGE, there's been some changes to C&E and how it works/operates. Much of these changes are in the back-end, and not something we necessarily need to bore you with however, by simplifying the structure of the team into two main teams we can streamline the current processes that our team has to go through. Based on recent feedback, all teams including ourselves have agreed to ensure all applications are reviewed within 72 hours to ensure none of our players are waiting on approval for extended periods of time. Commerce Team: Manages business-related tasks, including leases, company perks (vehicles, mapping), and entrepreneurial applications. Head of Commerce Team — danut, Assistant Head of Commerce Team — Slice Estate Team: Oversees player-owned residential properties, complexes, and market pricing adjustments to match the server economy. Head of Estate Team — Caledonite, Assistant Head of Estate Team — DadoJ Keep an eye out on the forums in the coming days and weeks for more information on how you can request properties and companies prior to the server's launch. We aim to ensure that everyone's ready to hit the ground running once the server is live. Illegal Faction Team We'd like to start by acknowledging some changes to the team, as we've recently had @Spanion return to the staff team and reclaim his Illegal Faction Council role. Spanion spent a considerable amount of time supporting the Illegal Faction Team & Council around the SAMP launch and has been helping us get the team prepared for the launch of RAGE. @Conor has also been placed into the role of Illegal Faction Council, his experience in illegal street-gang roleplay, and passion for providing players with a positive, immersive experience has been of great help as we work with our development team on new exciting features for RAGE, which you may have seen in our recent promotional material - a project which @Conor has taken on and worked extremely hard on alongside our RAGE Insiders team. As the launch date for RAGE rapidly approaches, the Illegal Faction Team & Council have been very busy ensuring a smooth transition into the next stage of LS-RP for all existing factions interested in setting up shop on our RAGE server. We've also been preparing a process for returning factions, and factions from outside the community who wish to join us on LS-RP:V. We're excited to announce that we're now ready for faction leaders across the board to apply for Verified in the run up to launch. There are some eligibility criteria that must be met, and not everyone will be granted this upon launch. If you're unsure about the RAGE faction advancement structure, we recommend checking this thread. If you'd like to apply for Verified status, we ask that you submit the following application to the Illegal Faction Council for review. As the official launch date has not been released or decided, it may take some time for applications to be reviewed and approved. We don't want to get anyone excited prematurely, but by submitting your application early you'll ensure you've reserved your spot as a Verified faction for launch as we won't be giving it to every applicant. Official SAMP factions will also have the opportunity to join RAGE in an Official Faction capacity - there are also some eligibility criteria that must be met, however the Illegal Faction Council will be reaching out to these factions individually. We've also been receiving a lot of feedback about the Rules of Engagement from both players and staff regarding the length and complexity of the Rules of Engagement. We've spent some time condensing and simplifying the information, and have released a Rules of Engagement (Simplified) thread. There has been a couple of changes to ROE for the RAGE launch, most importantly this is the change to weapon restrictions (one assault rifle instead of two per attack) and the fact that robberies will now be classed as a faction attack and subject to a 6 hour cool-down. This is still a work in progress as we approach relaunch, but we encourage all faction leaders and their members to ensure they've read this thread to be up to date on the ROE for RAGE. Finally, we're excited to announce the applications for the Illegal Faction Team are now open! If you'd like to provide your input and work as part of a team to support the illegal roleplay community, we recommend submitting an application. And, as always if there's any queries or concerns you'd like to discuss with the Illegal Faction Team/Council, our discord has a ticket bot to allow you to easily communicate your ideas with us - Discord Invite!
