Remember SA:MP ???

[TenAte108 44]

Frequency of SA:MP players is lower than before.

for example, in 2017 there was a server called GANG WARS, players who were online was about 57 from 100 - now look, it is just 8 from 100 and when it gets crowded it be 15 from 100 never exceed that high number.

what i am trying to say is, don't let gta sa die and keep it alive by playing its multiplayer modification (SAMP)

keep in mind that SA MP was before MTA.

can you guys for those who didn't play it try SA MP, that would at least help bringing back high numbers of players to the game.

the servers are voided and lonely.

I used to play SA:MP a lot back then, around 2010, but then I stopped playing it like 7 years ago.

My favorite server got shutdown, honestly I never saw the appeal of the other gamemodes.

 

I played on freeroam and race most of the time, I never liked the appeal of roleplay or deathmatch though. For the latter, I rather play Counter-Strike or any arena shooters other than San Andreas. SA:MP deathmatch was (and always is) pure chaos and a laggy experience.

 

Also nowadays I rather play on singleplayer than on multiplayer.

i know i know, they used aimbots back then

i wish i could i really do. i have seen plenty of samp gameplay. but sadly im just a console player. it looks very fun too.

Yes I do. I thought it was more fun than GTA Online. I only briefly played it when I dabbled in PC gaming, but it was still one of the best Online experiences I've had.

yeah it is better than GTA v online, it also had servers look like GTA online exactly with same gameplay and rules.

buying condos, cars, colored guns, getting hoes, doing jobs for cj and his homies even his foes, buying proprties that gets you money AAAAAAND FINALLY modding your servers with new music and cars and maps and stuff.......

 

 

note : GTA SA MP consumes 3-5kbs per second on each 10 players are active in same server that means it consumes very little data amount if we have 100 players in one servers and thats AMAZZZZZING

SA:MP was definitely something you had to play at it's peak. When I played, there was nothing like that going on. It was pretty damn fun. There was definitely still moments where it was a sh*tshow, but I used to make lot of friends just messing around in free roam. I remember when I first played it, a guy essentially showed me the ropes of everything and it was all I played until I went back to Console. I do miss those times. Something about Multiplayer from that era is just special.

I absolutely despise it,but I can see it as a concept being really fun.The most popular server,AKA United Islands Freeroam is FILLED with tryhards and arseholes,flying cars just RAMMING into you,it's a total sh*tshow where you can barely have any fun.That's my experience at least...

I still play it sometimes. Most of the servers are totally chaotic piles of sh*t filled with hackers and tryharding weirdos, butt here are still some good servers to enjoy.

[Ricbit 33]

I play SAMP, and the truth is that there are hackers on any server, whether Roleplay or Freeroam that ruin (at least me and many) the gaming experience on these servers.

 

Just think about it: Who wants to play on a server where almost everyone has aimbot and any other hack that won't let you play in peace? Please; I even thought about withdrawing from SAMP for those things.

 

There are also communities of some servers that are very toxic ... if you know what I mean ...

 

I really don't see a good future for SAMP ...

[GreenPeas 44]

I heard something like that.

It is being updated regularly, a huge community allows this project not to be closed.

[TenAte108 44]

huge community but little users

[heatimusZ4_ 15]

lower number of players?

This game is still dominated by russian players, mostly in roleplay servers. I've still seeing videos on youtube from various russian youtubers who is still doing GTA:SAMP RP videos, with small number of english players here and there doing the same thing. Gone the late 200X days of youtube in which you saw a video on a SAMP popular server of someone maybe doing some drifting, bloopers, kills montages etc..

 

The only thing that keeps this mod dead is the support of the community that still supported it, just like GreenPeas said, and all that hype of the battleroyals servers back in the day. (although, MTP multiplayer mod seems to do better justice on that but that's not our multiplayer mod we're talking about..)

 

I still came around SAMP but rarely since the servers list is mostly filled with 80% of it RP servers that is already made me bored to tears, or maybe lack of the players needed to join a game, I even usually had to ask in the chat if someone would come and drop by, one or two round later and that player left the game (probably ragequitted ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)) but then again, SAMP at this point feels Uhhhmmm.. lacklauster IMO in terms of fun nowadays.

 

I'm not sure if SAMP could be revived like the old days, but I still have some glitter of hopes for it's faithful return in the future. I hope..
