I see this thread is half of "who has a bigger dick vote my faction 2018" and half of argumented thoughts .Shooting will be a thing but please have enough awareness to know when you should risk tons of years in prison and murder another human being and when not. The only "taking over" will be in areas where there are quite a few factions very compact to each other. I do not really pay attention to the street gangs so I can't talk who can perform best there. As of organized crime and MCs, I think Little Yerevan seems very promising and so do Mongols MC, Nazzaro and Delisanti factions in retrospective could be top notch also.
What faction you think gonna take over?
Started by Dopey,
It's really too early to tell, but IMO, I feel like it's anyone's game at this point. Members, Guns, Drugs, Turf mean very little in the long run. It's all about the roleplay quality, in-game behavior, and community standing both ICly and OOCly. If you don't have any of that, I wouldn't hold your breath trying to find anyone who will roleplay with your faction besides OOC friends. Some of the best factions have been because of those 3 main components. Any faction can Guns and Drugs, but most of them close down in like a month because their roleplay and activity is low or they're getting too many Faction Reports for DMing which is more than likely tied into unrealistic roleplay. All in all, Whoever turns out to be a realistic is more than likely who will "take over".
I am not worried about ghettos. What I am though is the size of areas and how so many gangs will rub shoulders. Maybe it will make them show true colors. Who knows.

It's definitely going to be an interesting prospect. In real life, gangs are literally bordered a lot like they are gonna be in Ocean Flats, so it'll be interesting to see who doesn't want to wage war with all of their neighbors and instead focuses on profit. Seven gangs or so in Ocean Flats, my best guess is maybe about three will close on launch or close to launch. I'm just happy the gang I'm in is mobile/more organized.

You do have a point. Some of you don't even seem to care about roleplay at all.
Most of them are perma bans from lsrp that transferred here smh

But being a power-house or taking over the server doesn't mean you need to have some kind of ruthless reputation for being s1ck a1m3rs and 1337 shooters. There are other ways of gaining power in role-play and I hope those are used more than shooting. Personally I wanna detach from that shooting mindset, SF is a small town and you're not going to be able to get away with a lot of shit like you might be able to in Los Santos, police are gonna be on your ass. It's just a different environment, there's not as much room for criminals to breathe, so you people out there who consider yourselves to be smart criminals are more than likely going to be tested with the strenuous pressure the PD can apply and the distance they can cover relative to time.
I think the first faction that is going to 'take over' is whatever faction has a leadership which is cognizant of the environment San Fierro brings, shoot outs are going to drop drastically, probably more than anyone here's ever witnessed. Gangs, mafia's, syndicates, clubs, thugs, etc etc are going to have to use brain over brawn to get to the top. Real power is out there for criminals to grab but if you think you can get that by shooting better or outnumbering a rival faction you're in for a surprise. You're gonna have to use your brain way more than your aim!
I like the sound of this.
FD is going to rule! Jokes aside I hope there is LOTS of different take overs between gangs trying to be bigger than the last! :)
Personally I don't think any faction will "rule". I think they will all be unique and all have there advantages and disadvantages.
Though it's kind of expected for a faction leader to vote for his own faction, I have good reason as to why I say the Pagans will "take-over" in a sense. I know what myself and the others in my faction have planned for the Pagans and I believe we will be going pretty far and will definitely be a force to be reckoned with. And yes, I am not referring to pure killing and DM.
pagans mc
Pagans shall rule the OMC scene.
Department of Roads for sure. Most influential faction in the whole server. We'll mess up your roads and blow up the pipeline if you mess with us.

no wait !!
I think a organized crime syndicate or mafia will be most successful due to the setting of the server, being in San Fierro and all.
