MTA: San Andreas...

danza · 13 Mar 2007 at 14:59

Hi all,

Am I currently the only person from OcUK playing this regularly? I used to see a few familiar names floating around the servers, but alas, nomore!

I can't remember when I first started playing. It was a while ago, way back last year sometime. I normally play on Littlewhitey's server, or if I get fed up with hackers, over at Team Neo 24/7 Cops & Robbers.

I predictably go by the name danza*, and generally pwn quite hard (still a bit gash at DM's though)

.

So, call this an attempt at OcUK MTA:SA revival if you will. Perhaps I'll see some of you on there later.....?

Is it still like it was where you could only race? Or have they made it deathmatchey now, or whatever?

I stopped playing this when the MTA:SA UK server disappeared, but it is back up again now after several months, so i will return to the game soon. I went by the name Lazlow.

Downloading now, should get a chance to play tonight. I'll be using the usual 'mark1' as my name.

Only racing. AFAIK SA:MP (the DM version) is full of hackers, well it was the last time I tried playing!

Johanson - I'm pretty sure I recognise your nick. I'll keep an eye open for you

when it came out i got banned from loads of servers on the race one because they accused me of hacking

i tried to tell them using a ps2 controller and been a total GTA addict is not hacking but pfffft

holding up slightly on the analogue stick while on a motorbike for the win

are they still working on a DM version ?

ive never even played the old gtas in DM online

GFX707 · 13 Mar 2007 at 17:00

If you plug in a PS2 controller does the second analogue stick do anything? Ermmm, did it do anything in the PS2 version?

"andy" · 13 Mar 2007 at 17:01

mosehn · 13 Mar 2007 at 18:12

I still play this from time to time, Mainly play Neo's Cops and robbers server or littlewhitey's. It's good for a quick blast every now and then.

I never tried it, I head from people that it was full of hackers, and sometimes the cheatcodes worked. :confused:

Certain servers are regularly hit by hackers. Well, not that regularly. You can go a whole evening without on Littlewhitey's.

Some servers are rarely targeted by hackers. Team Neo tend to be pretty good in this respect.

If you're refering to the SA:MP servers, then IME, yes. Most are full of retarded hackers.

I can't play it as it says that i'm running v2.00 and it only supports v1.00. I reinstalled it and i get the same thing. I can't even remember installing a patch for it and can't find a v2 patch on the net :confused:

I'll try again and give it a full reg clean etc to clear out any old entries. Hope i can get it working.

You can DL a patch that will convert your install to V1.00:

If your DVD is V2.00, you can't change anything by reinstalling it. You need the above patch, and after installing that, you'll be fine

I used to play in that server too a lot. The server dissapeared, and shortly after that my joypad refused to work in SA altogether (think it was conflicting with this Saitek keyboard I bought which Windows recognizes as a game controller). If the server is now back up I might try and have a game sometime.
