Any news on the development of an original mobile ...

That says it all in the title. In foreign countries where you cant buy a computer ripoff samp mobile is all over the place.

The short answer is no. I believe the focus right now is on the PC client. There was mobile gameplay in the video they posted last year and at that point they wanted to bring classic, DE and mobile together. But at this moment we don't know how the development is going. We don't know if everything is going to plan, or they've already made decisions to can the mobile and DE versions. Also, your argument regarding not being able to buy a computer doesn't really work. A phone that can run mobile san andreas will be more expensive than a computer that meets the minimal specs to run the original PC version.

@gray-grass-64213 Still like I said people tend to buy phones they are cheaper than computers in some areas unless the us or any other place where you can find fully working desktops for 50bucks you feel me. You can never get that offer in foreign countries unless its from a friend or u're just lucky
g
you're telling me that your country barely imports PC parts? I'm curious, what country is that?
a
I personally isn't in a poor country so it imports and produces out here
I live In Morocco btw you know where that is located?
g
yes
it's NW of Africa
a
Even tho Morocco is somewhat a poor country it has a mix of both
Yessir thank you for responding to my question !

idk if that was sarcastic or not, but whatever. I know custom fees are high there, if you want to order a new PC, but again, san andreas doesn't really need a new PC. you can get an older second hand PC, and it will still be more than enough to run the original game and it will be way cheaper than a phone. And yes, I know people buy a lot of phones more these days, but if we're going that route, you're really just asking for it out of commodity. If I were them I'd be hesitant to allocate resources for it, since we don't actually know how many people actually play the mobile version on a daily basis.

Original and Mobile has the most priority.
g
Got it. Thanks for clearing that out
d
But that also means Mobile has to match Original in feature set.
g
it's more difficult to do that, since the base games are different...
d
In mobile not much.
By feature set I actually mean SA:MP feature set, due to 500 different mobile clients not having textdraws, or object materials etc
a
Okii I see
That would be a pain to match
g
what if you develop one mobile client for just the game present on the store?
d
I'm talking about the different samp mobile clients that don't have these features, not the game. What I'm saying is our expectation is that we wouldn't release any mobile version that doesn't have feature parity with the PC client.
g
you lost me again... I thought you weren't supporting the existing mobile clients I got the impression you were developing a separate one
d
I'm just comparing them.
I'm saying our mobile version will not miss out on any features compared to PC unlike the other ones
g
cool
a
@dazzling-translator-76954 i've played mobile for a while and i dont think its that great like there's many issues one of those are sync problems ( like if i come up to someone i see their car on the road if they get on the car teleports to them) siren isnt sync the honk too car damage too hood, doors too ect ect and i think you could smash the fakes if you build one that fixes these imma switch up to pc real soon so i might not experience this :p
