As seen on LSRP(where most of us came from), Los Santos and the area surrounding it were the only places we were subjected to living in, San Fierro and Las Venturas were inhabitable. Will this be the case on Bay Area RP? Will we only be able to live and obtain turf in San Fierro and counties outside of San Fierro?
Los Santos & Las Venturas?
Started by Fully Loaded Clips,
At first probably yes, but once the community grows bigger, we will probably obtain parts of LS or LV
San Fierro is the focus but who knows what will happen over time
I doubt LS and LV will open anytime soon. The only thing that could be opened time to time is the county, nothing else.
If we were to expand, I'd prefer us to spread over to Tierra Robada and LV first but it's a long shot.
Too early to think about this imo, would love to see it happen though.
I'm thinking we'll stay in San Fierro and Bay Area until housing becomes an issue aha, or maybe RP develops to a point we can move out.
Hopefully it stays in San Fierro and the Bay Area. Expanding to other places just waters down the playerbase.
I hope it will expand to Los Santos.
At first playerbase won't be high enough for any other city except San Fierro. Once it becomes more stables and reaches 250, server can actively expand to LV Desert, Teirra Robada, Fort Carson. Also move closer to LS, probably become active at Angel Pine and Mount Chilliad. If playerbase ever reaches 1000, then the whole map will be active.
I'd like to see it expand to the county, but no more.
I'm thinking the player base won't exceed 400-500 players (although I'd love to be proven wrong), and with that being said it's probably not worth spreading people out. What's the point when you could just have an incredibly active San Fierro?
Unless BA-RP becomes the English equivalant of these 1,000 player slot Russian servers we see, then I wouldn't consider the possibility.
There's not much left to be said here but it's worth noting that centralizing RP this early on is incredibly important. Without that, you'll have to drive around for hours trying to find one person to RP with. Let's not get too excited for other areas.
San Fierro
Still an early process to start thinking about, but as time passes we would probably be able to expand to parts of the county rather than Los Santos.
I rather see SF being packed with life instead of everyone being spread out across the map. Makes it less likely of having dead areas in SF. Imagine 5 different gangs attempting to either coexist or try to take over a district they all resided in, it would actually be dope to see. Or seeing at least 2 or 3 players in each block/corner/stores around the city to interact with.
For someone like me who had only played in Los Santos during my entire SA-MP career, San Fierro is like a breath of fresh air so I would like the server to stick with just SF and its surrounding areas for now till the area becomes overcrowded.
The original SA:MP server I ever played was based in Las Venturas so I have lots of love for it. Wouldn't mind returning.
In my opinion, it would be better to stick with San Fierro and it's immediate surrounding areas. It would be senseless to venture off into other cities.
As much as I agree on filling San Fierro and the countryside first, I can't wait to see people spread all over SF and LV both. But only time will tell.
