Many experienced gamers remember the times of the third part of GTA. When she was born, there was a real revolution in the gaming industry. Computer games began to move into the three-dimensional world, and it was GTA 3 that became an advanced project that managed to offer not only the wonders of the three-dimensional world, but also a huge number of other pleasant moments. Naturally, the developers did not stop there, and precisely because of this, gamers were able to see the project, which became legendary for a long time and is still considered the best in the entire series. This is, of course, about the GTA: San Andreas. The game has even more incredible opportunities, which in those days no one could even dream of. However, most of all, against the background of the others, something called "SAMP" stood out.
"SAMP" stands for "San Andreas multiplayer", that is, it is a multi-user add-on for the game that allows you to be on the same server with other gamers - both with your friends and with complete strangers. Naturally, this affected the success of the project, and even taking into account the fact that in the modern world high-level multi-user projects come out every month, the SAMP servers are always full to capacity. Especially when it comes to RP - these are the servers on which roleplaying takes place. And precisely about this, as well as about the terms related to RP, will be described in detail in this article. RP is a real gaming phenomenon, because it is he who is incredibly popular even today.
What it is?
RP is Role Play, that is, roleplaying. However, many gamers may be surprised, because "GTA: San Andreas" - this is not a role-playing game, but an action shooter. And it is in this aspect that the secret of this project is hidden, because a sufficient number of shooters were published ten and fifteen years ago. But there has never been a project like SAMP-RP. Accordingly, gamers immediately began to spend tens of hours at this game. But what is its feature?
It turns out that RP is the conditions of the game, that is, the world remains the same, all characters remain the same, but within the framework of the RP certain rules and laws are set, as well as many other details are determined that are responsible for the full functioning of the server. Thus, a person comes to the server, receives an identity card, signs up for a profession and begins to play his part.
He can simply fulfill his duties, he can strive to advance up the career ladder, create his own business, start a family and so on. Someone chooses a gangster way for themselves, while others become police officers to stop gangsters. In general, life on the server always boils. And that is why SAMP: RP is a project for centuries that has become popular for a very long time, but has managed to maintain its relevance to this day.
How is the interaction going?
Unlike most computer games that have a multi-user mode function, in GTA: SAMP-RP, most of the interactions take place in the game chat, that is, players communicate with each other and also perform numerous actions using various teams. However, in this case, there is one very important aspect that you should pay attention to. The servers have a strict distinction between RP and non-RP messages, and you need to familiarize yourself with this topic in more detail.
If you write a message on behalf of your character, then you can not worry about any additional characters, since game chat is a place where all communications between players take place. These are RP messages, that is, those that are written as part of the role played. What then are non-RP messages? This is what you want to say as a player, not as a character. And if you want to use this approach, you need to enclose your message in double brackets, that is, give it this form: ((text)).
Metagaming
In "SAMP-RP" the terms are the most diverse, and you have already learned the most important one. It is, naturally, about RP. But now that you have already learned all the details about game chat, you should also study another term - MG. This is "metagaming", but the decryption hardly told you much. What does this mean? Metagaming refers to messages that were sent in the wrong form. If you sent a message to the game chat from yourself, and not from your character, without enclosing it in double brackets - this is MG, and this aspect is very tightly controlled, and violators are seriously punished.
Killing terms
You can also see numerous terms in "SAMP-RP": SK, TK, DM and so on. Each term has its own meaning and can play an important role in the gameplay. Now you will learn about the most important terms that designate this or that form of murder in the project. For example, DM is the killing of a player for no good reason, and it is punished very cruelly. If you see the term DB, it means that the murder was committed using a car. As for the term SK, this is also an extremely ugly and brutally punishable act. The fact is that this is a "spawn kill", that is, the killing of a player who has just appeared in the game. Well, the last term about killings that you should know is TC, “team kill”, that is, the murder of a player from his team.
Other teams
Naturally, there are other teams in the game that you should familiarize yourself with when you play SAMP-RP. For example, RK is a return to the place where your character was killed, and BH is a technique allowed only in non-RP mode. This is a jumping run that allows you to move faster than with a normal run.
