What is your first MTA Memory?

[By-Stander]

Mine was the rosy days of gta3mta 0.3b, loading it up and getting past the scrolling credits for the first time to see another real human player in liberty city. Awesome. Shortly after a hectic car chase around the mafioso hills his car began to flip around and grind its way up a building..seems he'd lost server connection and the server pretended he hadn't but thats another story.

ha,

mine was joining VCES server for the first time, then getting killed by someone with a spaz shotgun, i thought everyone cheated

[[FMJ]chode]

I'd have to say mine was when i joined an empty server on one of the first days of 0.2 to see how it all handle, someone talked to me in th chat (admin, but i didnt know that at the time) and i got scared and disconnected

After that it was when i used to randomly run around on servers as a cop, trying to beat "teamers" and teaming with anyone that didn't like "teamers" Hehe, how i see the irony now...

[MrJax]

Hehe i can remember trying out for V@ in the studios at prawn, kept getting the heli and going for spaz each time i died, still got owned Few days later they split and i joined UVA

Dont remember much about gta3:mta 0.3b, but my first MTAVC 0.1 memory was playing in the official server with some other dude camping the spawn with m60s.

I remember MTA 0.3r2 just came out and it was 2 AM in the morning, I was searching for VC mods and found this. I found a server and spawned mexican, and saw some guys speedhacking to stunt over the airport.

The time I heard for the first time about MTA was in a Dutch gamemagazine.

I still have the review of MTA here It was about version 0.1 and 0.2

[Aeron]

I remember playing MTA:VC v0.1 and wondered why there wasn't a countdown function for street races , so i cracked MTA and the nickname color codes.

And Blokker's first reaction on my "MTA Connection script" (later "Admin Control" and very later MTA:mA):

"WE HATE HACKERS"

GTA3MTA0.2a, i remember playing online and thinking it was a great idea, but the netcode needed work...

so i started talking to IJs and eventually he asked me to write the next server fro GTA3MTA0.3b,

During last summer, me and a mate downloaded MTA 0.3r2 and i was so slow, laggy, my skills were bad to begin with. I remember just being on the TmM old 0.3 server getting owned, my first spawn was the sailor, we just stood on the top of the boat for about 15 mins doing nothing, then i joined my first clan (THH) in July 2004.

I remember {ULK} adding me to the stfu list on MTA:VC 0.3

[borosky]

first memories were crusin around vc with my good old buddy velder (who brought me into this, and then abandoned MTA, leavin me in this pieceo.. "game" ) in a stinger as mexies, and tryin to rape (usually it was us who were gettin raped) everyone we came upon.

then, when i discovered the beauty of the stubby, the happy robber times started for me, i remember meeting those ulk bitches here and there. once, after a 2h spawn war, it was only me and him left, and i wouldnt wanna give up, even if he raped me 9/10 times, i would say like "U *&$#*(# STAY THERE IM GONNA KILL U!!!!", untli he said "hey, i like your spirit, wanna join ULK" that was preety cool, and it happened after only 2-3 months of playing MTA (i joined a lame gang [M]ontana before), so i consider myself as someone who had a hidden talent for this game

now mta is the only online game i commit myself to heh

[The Azer]

My first memory: playing GTA3MTA v0.3b on an empty server

after checking the site later I found out that there was an VC version (MTA:VC 0.1) also so thx to MTA i purchased VC

[Lággy]

My first time I played was with mta 0.5, that was at the beginning of the year. I was called a hacker because I had a bad connection. I kept saying, "I'm not a hacker, I'm just laggy". If I got 50 cents every time someone said I was cheating, I would have a faster connection and I would be called Laggless.

kept gettin ping kicked wit my 56k modem

kept gettin ping kicked wit my 56k modem

hehe, same. Whenever I join a server, the first thing I type is /ping.

[Mike]

I got banned from the official server. I couldn't get a word in for myself due to not knowing how to chat ingame.

[mirror]

well, mine was in 0.3r2, and I forgot what happened the 1st time, it was as a robber thats for sure though , Although my first server was Smokers.

[HuZs]

I heard of mta at a game tv-program in finland. (http://www.tilt.tv) I got mta 0.3r2 and stepped out of robber spawn at prawn island in the mta official server. I liked the smokers server best and i used to race with some polish guys called brylo and mati.
