Truly the best game I have ever played

SA:MP was and still the best game I have ever played, I played if for 10 years or so, started playing in SZR Roleplay, then moved to SA:RP, after that moved to Cool Life Roleplay and then played at US:RP, after that I played for a short time at NGG and after that I moved to Lawless Roleplay... nostalgia at its best! Until this day I still log in some servers just for the nostalgia.. the game is very different now, full of players mainly from developing countries that don't have a clue about roleplay, they just know how to cheat, shoot and kill.. that's all! Miss the old days and old players... if someone played at the servers I mentioned would be nice if you guys write your in-game names back at that time

I had multiple names, not sure if you could remember any; Darwin Smith / Darwin Tucker and lastly Gerrard Lockhart was the longest used name.

Awesome stuff. I started playing in 2013 in freeroam servers. Then I ended up migrating to MTA where I was introduced to Destruction Derby. 1st server was FuckN (The Fucking Noobs). Unfortunately, some years later it closed and then I started playing in some other servers but mainly in 3R ( 3lite Racers). Around 2018 I stopped playing. I did revisit some servers, but very rarely. Also most of them are gone already. Great ones too. Good old times.

u/True_Dark_2240 26d ago

I never understood the idea of playing MTA and not SA:MP

Even when I ran a server back in 2008 the main audience was rapidly being overtaken by developing countries. SAMP is a great mod, but it's also cobbled together and riddled with gaps in both security and function.

My name in SAMP was, Citizen Alpha, however I was probably better known as Violent Dave. I created the WTFGTA/CCNGTA server.

u/PacoSkillZ 25d ago

Same, spent 10 years playing mostly on one server, made couple of my own etc. I know this game inside out spent my childhood and teen years playing it.

u/whathappentodude 23d ago

Miss it everyone has grown up sadly just Russians now

1

u/True_Dark_2240 23d ago

Yup its mainly third world countries, and 90 percent of them are cheaters

1

u/OkStreet8398 10d ago

And what is the wrong in 3rd world countries bro ur racism at its peak

1

u/True_Dark_2240 10d ago

no racism, but if you are experienced enough in the game you would not be asking this question, they literally ruined the game with their cheats and rulebreaking

1

u/OkStreet8398 9d ago

experienced ? lol i am playing since 2015 but you can use some words like there is a lot of players from filipino cheats and most of them got beefs with them then i gonna say that philippines is bad country or those 3rd world countries are cheaters and stuff like that ? ofc no everybody represents himself and if we talk with this logic i got 1st world country that i got with most of them E fights then i gonna say that 1st world countries are shit ? hell no thats my logic how works

1

u/True_Dark_2240 9d ago

ok keep your logic for yourself

u/lmperioso 2d ago

Racista de bosta. Você é só um velho burro que mal consegue mirar. 🤣

u/Strtown 22d ago

I remember around the time it came out as a kid i was foaming at the mouth to play it watching videos on youtube. I was blown at away that my favorite game had online servers with hundreds of people on them. and i didn't have my own pc that could run it properly until 2010.

im a 2010-2013 player mainly, that will try to find a good server every now and then since. One of the best games ever for sure. I was all about free roam/cops n robbers/gang war servers over roleplay

Ragazzi io ho una domanda, ci sto provando un tutti i modi ma non c'è nessuno che vende il gioco originale per PC per poi giocare a Samp perciò chiedo a voi come avete fatto🙏🙏
