MrJax Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 Where did everyone get 2 years from? 0.5 was released in January 2005. Thats around the time the 1st blue was started? Link to comment
Omg Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 The user seems to be talking about mta blue which most probably wont be out till 2010 . and was shown on the main site since version 0.3 i think. Link to comment
Vicer/Spitfire Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 wow...what happened here?? What didn't happen here? Link to comment
Si|ent Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 The user seems to be talking about mta blue which most probably wont be out till 2010 . and was shown on the main site since version 0.3 i think The new core was in production one way or another for a long time before anybody out-team was aware of its existance. The details and it's code name (Blue) were only released publicly relatively recently. Link to comment
DeathB Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 i dont see how 2004 can be classified as recent Link to comment
njr1489 Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 This is what happens when you work on more than one game, people ditch the other one. MTA did start blue in 2003 from what I have seen in their old posts. I think the GTA online scene is slowly dying, we won't be playing forever, we'll lose total interest at some point. Holding off one project that has been partially complete to start another new one isn't a good idea. I think the team just wanted to establish a good image and not release what was left of VC, and start fresh. Doing that has both its positives and negatives. Bottom line: IMO, MTA bit too much they could chew. Link to comment

Why do you think the community would lose interest in something that doesn't even exist yet (San Andreas)? Link to comment
njr1489 Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Half my post was about GTA 3 and VC, and yes people did lose interest, there is no denying that. For SA, I meant after its released. Give it a year or two, a lot of people will move on, (except for those hardcore MTA fans). Thats how the online gaming world works, you get tired of playing one game online and move on to the next game. EX: From GTA to UT to Doom 3 to CoD to CSS to BF2 to Quake 4 to NFS to CoD 2 and on and on and on. Link to comment

Okay but like you said that happens with all games.. it's not unique to MTA. People played GTA3/VC for a while, many of them have moved on, SA will attract many new people (as well as bring back some old ones), and after a couple of years they will move on too. What point are you trying to make? Isn't that just common knowledge? Or are you suggesting that the MTA team made the wrong decision in focusing on the new core and dropping the old one? I for one would much rather have them develop MTA:SA rather than continue to work on something that's outdated for an older game. Link to comment
:Rob Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Hey Njr, long time no see. ... here's my 2 cents =/ At .4, MTA was at it's highest point, twaz awesome. Everyone expected .5 to be like... the GOD VERSION of MTA. However .5 ( no disrespect meant here ) kinda bombed on itself, and people moved on to... the school year, which was folowed by VC-MP. Dreaded crap that is.. the school year.. ;x However...I think that if they actually RELEASED MTA-SA, with whatever it has now... and then if they made progress with it, released a MTA SA .2 The fans / players would be waaay happier. I'll be playing this GTA Rumble untill they release MTA-SA... Cause I wanna play an SA Mutliplayer. If MTA ever releases MTA-SA, I'll switch to that INSTANTLY. But untill then... I'mma have to play with what I got. Link to comment

And the fans maybe would be happier for a short while but then the community will start bitching about bugs etc. Let them make it totally crash proof Link to comment

:Rob Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 I'm not saying I'm unwilling to be patient, just not willing to wait ages for it As soon as MTA makes a release, I'll loyaly return and play MTA-SA. (If it's better than jax's mod ) But I mean... god... heh...I still remember reading the post that said sometime within the next two weeks... But naw.. I can wait. I will too. You wont see me bitching like some others... "OMG @%#@ING UPDATE ALREADY MTA TEAM I HATE j00 ALL " Boo fucking hoo. I want a release too, but bitching at them wont help Maybe if I sent hookers to their houses.... Link to comment
