Helius

Hello all, As many of you have already been aware, the staff team has being going through a major restructure recently and in light of that badhbh, Spanion and I have been appointed as Illegal Faction Team Council. We want to be entirely transparent so we're going to explain what has went on in the background, how illegal factions will work between V and SA-MP & the available schemes for both servers. We've been putting in a lot of work behind the scenes for the upcoming SA-MP server release. With a strong team backing us, we're ready to provide even more support for illegal factions across both servers. Our forum section is all set to go and will be up shortly, allowing people to create their faction threads and apply for schemes before the server launches. We've completely overhauled schemes on both platforms to better meet faction needs, based on feedback from faction leaders. Our aim is to offer as much support as possible for both existing and new factions. While we expect many questions about management across both platforms, we want to assure you that we have a dedicated team constantly working on improvements. We're actively engaging in discussions with illegal faction leaders and members to provide the best support we can. Official Faction Reinstatements We have decided to allow factions that were official within 1 year of the SA-MP server's closure to re-apply for their official status. We will be offering schemes to factions, but will be discussed amongst the illegal faction team council on a case-by-case basis. If your faction meets the criteria below, please feel free to fill out an application, and send it to @Helius on behalf of the Illegal Faction Team Council. You can find the application format here. Illegal Faction Team Applications We have reached out on Discord for people that are willing to support the illegal faction team to provide support for factions, liase with faction leadership and partake in active discussions regarding upcoming changes or additions to factions. You can find out more here. We have decided to bring back the public faction team which will allow players to partake in discussions regarding upcoming changes and additions and generally support the faction team to grow and develop further. More information about the public team can be found here. Schemes Schemes have been reviewed in SA-MP, and we've decided to keep the same amount of weapons and drugs for official factions. @Spanionhas estimated and rounded off the amounts that will be given to unofficial faction scheme holders and solo scheme holders. Applications have been opened for official faction applications prior to the release of SA-MP. As for new emerging faction (and old) which didn't hold official status, we'll be opening up the faction schemes and turf map requests a couple weeks post launch of SA-MP, and we will announce when members can apply for the solo related schemes. In terms of how it'll work in-game for faction schemes and solo schemes, our members in the FTC will be passing the allowed amount to the faction leaders per month or bi-weekly if requested, although either option will still amount to the same overall throughout the month. The amount of drugs you will receive will be limited, mainly for the fact that we'd like to focus on giving factions two drugs of their choice. If they require other drugs, they should have the initiative to roleplay with other factions and purchase whatever they require. This way, we hope more factions get extra roleplay as well as interacting with each other in a realistic manner. This will also be the case for solo scheme holders in SAMP. If accepted, you simply need to reach out to FTC and collect your monthly or bi-weekly drop from them every month.

Welcome back boys!

A New Beginning

Marketing is something we're working on at the minute, but we need players to do their part as well. We want to showcase the factions we have and the overall player base as a whole. Server events is an example, that's the only base line we have at the moment. Advertising the server directly is in the works, but in terms of social media (eg. TikTok, Twitter etc) we want to showcase the factions we have (both legal and illegal), business owners, solo role play and the list goes on and on. I would love to see people getting involved in creating their own factions, creating their own role play because that's what we need at the moment. For example, I'm re opening the Irish faction because not only do I miss it, it provides role play to others as well as bringing up the player base. Overall a great update and plenty more to come!

(( Out of Character )) I have decided to open the faction again, but with an emphasise on street level crime. The leadership structure will be completely different and I'll plan it out over time. In the meantime, those that are interested in joining please feel to send me a message on Discord. I want people that are going to be active, dedicated and determined to get the faction to the stage that it needs to be. Our goal isn't to just provide role play for the faction members, but the community as a whole. I've said it before and I'll say it again, I'm open to all walks of life so please feel free to get involved!
