EthanJP Posted June 2, 2004 Posted June 2, 2004 Ok im brand new to MTA and this is my first go on GTA3 or VC for pc but i need to know which game is more popular for mp because i havent seen many screenshots. I just want a game with like 10 ppl or more in, sry for being so n00bish [qoute=Jack Thompson]Infact, we have got a bunch of sociopaths in Edinburgh-Scotland sitting around in kilts sipping their single malt whiskey, spreading racial and hurtful stereotypes. Does he realise he's an idiot?
Aeron Posted June 2, 2004 Posted June 2, 2004 The MTA for VC is currently better. So i say you should try MTA:VC "Never argue with an idiot. They bring you down to their level and beat you with experience." "Arguing on the internet is like the Special Olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded."
orappa Posted June 2, 2004 Posted June 2, 2004 (edited) No problem, we were all newbies once (despite what other people may say). GTA3:MTA is pretty old so it's quite buggy and difficult to use. You won't find many servers for that. MTA:VC is a lot more popular and runs on newer technology and there are hundreds of servers listed on All Seeing Eye: http://www.udpsoft.com MTA 0.4 is currently in development and combines GTA3 and VC into one client (resulting in GTA3 being equal technology-wise to MTA:VC). As you can see from the home page, this is approximately 80% complete but shouldn't take much longer as the team are just ironing out some bugs. Edit: Btw, I meant to say that this should pretty much even up the two versions popularity-wise as GTA3 offers more tense gameplay whereas Vice is larger and more relaxing.

EthanJP Posted June 2, 2004 Author Posted June 2, 2004 ok ty cos going to town 2morrow and needed to know lol is it easy to set up cos im a bit krud with manuals aswell lol EDIT: for the GTA3 and VC combo do i need both games or does it downlaod itself [qoute=Jack Thompson]Infact, we have got a bunch of sociopaths in Edinburgh-Scotland sitting around in kilts sipping their single malt whiskey, spreading racial and hurtful stereotypes.

orappa Posted June 2, 2004 Posted June 2, 2004 ok ty cos going to town 2morrow and needed to know lolis it easy to set up cos im a bit krud with manuals aswell lol GTA3:MTA is not newbie friendly! Basically, setting up a game for Vice City consists of using the All Seeing Eye server browser to find a server you want, clicking it and clicking Start Game on the MTA client window that appears. Remember that it is a beta, and some people have had slight problems joining games, but solutions have been posted on the forums should you have difficulties. Edit: EDIT: for the GTA3 and VC combo do i need both games or does it downlaod itself There is currently no GTA3 / VC combo, as that is MTA 0.4 which is not yet out.

Here is the 0.3r2 release for VC: http://www.mtavc.com/downloads.php?file_id=60 MTA:SA FAQ - Read this before asking questions. MTA:SA Troubleshooting - Read this first if you have problems.

Guardians Proper Posted June 2, 2004 Posted June 2, 2004 Well, when 0.4 comes out, then GTA3 will be competitive with VC, in terms of MTA...
Guardians Proper Posted June 4, 2004 Posted June 4, 2004 Well from the looks of it, the GTA3:MTA may even be better than MTA:VC... But there's only like 5 guns in GTA3... It'll never beat Vice City...
StAnToN Posted June 4, 2004 Posted June 4, 2004 im gonna be play gta 3 mta more than mtavc because im just soooo fed up of playing vc i need to play some more gta3!!
Guardians Proper Posted June 5, 2004 Posted June 5, 2004 im gonna be play gta 3 mta more than mtavc because im just soooo fed up of playing vc i need to play some more gta3!! I'm not sure I could handle it after MTA:VC. It's more buggy and apparently not as "developed" as MTA:VC...

vass69 Posted June 5, 2004 Posted June 5, 2004 well i think the worst thing now in gta3 is that there is no ingame chat but in 0.4 will it be and lots of ppl will play it tantsusaali astun ja naudin seda biiti, ilusad naised versus hunnik tselluliiti
Guardians Proper Posted June 7, 2004 Posted June 7, 2004 Either way, GTA3 still is slightly less indepth than Vice City. It just seems there isn't much to it. The only thing that fixes that is GTA:LC...
orappa Posted June 7, 2004 Posted June 7, 2004 What is GTA:LC? Is it that mod where they brought GTA3 to the VC engine? MTA:SA FAQ - Read this before asking questions. MTA:SA Troubleshooting - Read this first if you have problems.
Guardians Proper Posted June 7, 2004 Posted June 7, 2004 What is GTA:LC? Is it that mod where they brought GTA3 to the VC engine? Pretty close guess! Shame there's no missions, they just set you loose in the entire GTA3 city with some new helis and speed bikes...
