IT doesn't matter if MTA has better scripting functions, SA:MP is generally better. Period.
No it is not. It has just got more players, but that isnt positive in SA:MP's case. Give me a good reason why SA:MP would be better

id switch to MTA in an instant if the samp community moved with it, MTA has way more possiblities, and im amazed when i go to an MTA server, its so well done.


sa-mp is more simple and easyer to understand and get going, and anyone can just pickup and play.

True, there should be just a simple download button at the MTA site, and the server list should be working properly. These kind of things quickly get rid of the "noobs" on MTA.

MTA SA Has roleplay too. (Valhalla Gaming.)

I'd go with MTA even though there are not so many players around. The warping issue that has concerned SA-MP since the first release doesn't seem to happen when comparing it with MTA. SA-MP would be perfect, if they will give a try on resolving this problem.

SA-MP/SA:MP: Easy to start a server and easy to join one but there will be like 2000 servers so try to find a good one, or try to get some players in to your server.
MTA:SA: Takes longer to start a server also joining will take the first time longer because you will be needed to download a file but you will get able to do a lot more stuff.

SA:MP, because it has more players and a big community. But when IV:Mp is released, I will most likely play IV:MP.

What do you mean by "needed to download a file"? In order to host a SA-MP server you`ll also need to download a file :).

I go for SA-MP. Way better.

You have to download, thats why the sync and other stuff is that great. It basically downloads the maps and other resources, so that the server wont have to stream the objects through a network.

The amount of SA-MP fan boy bias amazes me, I used to have SA-MP for almost 2 years until I switched to MTA. SA-MP from a developer's view-point is slow, as it does not use d3d text rendering, copycat like, very bug and badly planned. It is a very bad mod. But that's what people had for a long time. The only reason MTA:SA got less players is because SA-MP simply got a head start from 2005.

I have yet to hear why SA-MP is better than MTA. Just throw something at me. I don't have a problem with change. I'm open minded, unlike you silly SA-MP fanboys. The only reason to hate MTA is just because of pure fan-boyism.

Also, if you noticed, Kye just completely copied off of the MTA UI. It has similar styling. He probably copied off the netcode also... I'm going to can his mod...

Also MTA loads just the same time as sa-mp. And it can be faster if MTA was already loaded.
