GTA4 (with online multiplayer) for PC: Future for MTA?

[riahc3]

So now that GTA4 has been announced for PC with online multiplayer, whats the future for MTA?

I received my mail on 08/08/08

they're usually a bit slower, but just a tiny bit

[haybail]

oh thats not too bad.

unless it was released on the 6th, then u would have lost two whole days!

[Scarface]

i think ill stay with RC's MP cause they have all the anti-bug,anti-lagg and stuff and mta wont be so good.i will still check mta's too but it would be better if mta could hack the and change MP of RC just like the guys said

[haybail]

I'm overposting but I don't think Rockstars will be very good.

I think it will be very average and not very well done. And only keep people ammused for a month. Another meh multiplayer that people don't really play. Like an updated SA 2 Player.

But if its good, oh goodie. What was it like on console?

You can have so much synchronization it's coming out of your ass: it doesn't help if the multiplayer's no good to begin with. That's the whole point.

yes buy synchronization coming from who? face it RS's will be much better and mta will be standing on an average unless they manage to get their code and perfectionize it. but i dont think rockstar will let us have another multiplayer modification cause they want ppl to play on theirs

if they wanted that, they could have done it years ago

That isn't my point: what i meant was, even if rockstar makes perfectly synced gameplay, nobody's going to want to play it if it's boring to begin with.

yes but rockstar did not have a multiplayer before!

well rockstar dosent care about that its all about the buisness my friend $$$$

They were developing one back in gta3 even.

well i dont see it and even if they were gta 3 was out in 2002 or even before so i think they would have made one for sa but your still missing my point they dont want to take years making a game mode and then ppl go play someone elses get it?

Boring gameplay = people hate playing = people tell their friends the game suck = shitty rep for the game = less people buy = less "buisness" for Rockstar = less $$$$ for Rockstar. At that point, they WILL care.

Get my drift?

that doesnt make sense cause if a third-party mp mod is more successful than the original mp it would result in even more people buying the game because they want to play this great mod = more $$$ for R*

im not even going to reply to you with an answer anymore dude c'mon its bloody simple when us modders finished the code of the hotcoffee this caused rc to loose many $$ and thats when they started releasing the anti versions and stuff but seriously dude rockstar wont care if you dont like it they dont want some one to just turn the table on them so.. just like what happened to sa-mp, at some time rc took controle of it and it was on standby if either to permanently ban it and delete every trace and shut it down but they decided to let us play it for just sa but its copyright to realise a mod for IV when you are either changing it or making one like it get it?

[Mr.Hankey]

comparing the hot coffee mod to mta or samp is like comparing a porn site with a Wii fan site...

And it wasnt Rockstar games' fault that samp was taken down several times but Keyman's.

you are still missing my point rc does not care if it sucks,what they care is that ppl will buy their game and play it mp or not.but not someone elses, i do know that rc sort of copied the modes of sa-mp and mta, infact i wish that mta will make a mod for IV but i dont think so it will be possible

[norby89]

it's R* or RS not RC!

dude you're talking nonsense, why would they want a mod made by their fans dead? they made multiplayer because the fans wanted it badly.. take a look at this message, it was sent by rockstar to the MTA Team:

that was ages ago

dont take me wrong i would love a mta mod for Iv, having the ability to create a server of my own with gamemodes of my choice

[Simbad de Zeeman]

Would be fun. MTA pwning IV's own MP mod.

[paul527]

scarface1994, let me tell you a couple of things:

1) Rockstar cannot do anything about MTA, because MTA does not make profit and does not receive donations for it's mods.

2) PLEASE use a period more often, I'm not saying this to be a jerk, it's just difficult to read your posts

3) So, let's say MTA or Rockstar did make a super-synched GTA4, unless they add scripting or SOMETHING, ANYTHING, nobody will give a fuck.

4) I'm glad you see the potential if MTA did work on GTA4. If they do it, I have a good feeling it will rock everyone's socks off.

[riahc3]

WOW Alot of talk about this.

My personal opinion: MTA will continue development with GTA SA. They wont even try to touch GTAIV.

i seriously doubt that, someone out there, and that can be mta, will surely try somethin out weither with rockstars permission or not. mta will also contunue with sa hopefully
