Since MTA is essentially "hacking" the GTA game to support Multiplayer, we have to read and write to the game's memory on the fly. In doing this, there is a large potential for crashing. We have already handled A LOT of the crashing issues, but as you can tell there is still a lot more to do.

A group have done a GTA:VC movie, with the game effects, icons etc...I thought it was a fairly good effort

It's the whole map. There's some inside bits that don't work in game, like the shooting range....it's just.....missing.

It could be a lot better though, netcode needs some smoothing. I'd like a way to earn money and buy weapons instead of having to nick em off dead bodies. If you select team play (ie be a cop / gang member) instead of free for all then there seriously needs to be some kind of killshooter system in effect, team killing is a problem. Another 'kin cop jacked my squad car last night, left me standing in the middle of the bleedin' street. Smeghead. Shot his left back tyre out though so he didn't get far before missing the bridge and landing in the canal.

If we're gonna get together on a server we really need a roger wilco host as well, in game comms is really badly done. I mean how're you 'sposed to type while driving? AND it's a global channel so no chance of "head him off up this side road" ideas......

i vote for the RW.

its true about the net code.

my PC crashes 4 out of 10 times while playing.

Swoop, im usualy the one who TK's my team. Theres a glitch that makes cops and others look like different people, Have you see that SUXX's girl running around?....its a glitch.

anyways last i shot a fellow cop ( he looked like the mexican). what i didnt see was another fellow cop in the car with him. I tore off in my car. They chased me crashed into my car and it cought fire. after being chased through the streets and haveing a shootout i killed the cop. Then the other cop ( his friend) saw me at the club and blew me away in revenge of his friends death!

that was the best game ive had yet, it was a 25-30 minute chase with a crap load of shootouts in the streets.

I do have to say shooting out someone's front tire while they are trying to run you over and watching them screetch into a tree or a wall makes me feel warm inside.
