Extraction - A new style of gamemode for MTA.

Hey guys, just thought I'd see what people thought of this? When I first posted it, it didn't garner much attention or response.
I abandoned it for a little while, and I am considering continuing with the project for it to be hosted publicly.

The gamemode works like this:
Main Lobby - An island where all current players not inside a game lobby can idle, check their stats, talk with others, use NPC's etc.
PVM Lobby - Los Santos only, you can bump into NPC's that will put up a fight and drop loot, search around for loot etc.
PVP Lobby - Los Santos only, you can bump into other players and fight, loot etc.
Private Lobby - Los Santos only, PVM & PVP combined, you can join via a players account ID.

You can instantly drop into gameplay from the Main Lobby and extract from a lobby by calling in an extraction helicopter, if you extract successfully you will keep your items, earn XP etc. So the game is constantly "live", there is no "lobbying up" or waiting times.

There are many cool mechanics and features that make it a fun, interactive and immersive experience.

You can create and join groups with your friends, set a logo, colour etc, and declare war with other groups. This will add extra loot to your drop table when killing each other.

Healing and armouring similar to games like Call of Duty and Fortnite as well as many weapon play features.

Local text and voice chat etc.

What do you guys think? Should I finish it?

love that "get outta way!" line from default GTA:SA

you cook up some interesting stuff TMTMTL, why aren't you tagging them with there spotlight submission tag as well?

Hahaha, I've disabled the GTA voices recently - Maybe I should record another video of it at some point!

Thank you! I actually have submitted quite a few things with the spotlight submission, but my assumption was that because a lot of what I make is for public sale it would not get spotlighted. I also wasn't too sure if it was still running either, but now you mention it, maybe I should make a new video of it soon lol..

you definitely should. inactivity on community spotlights is my fault, I haven't been able to get on Discord for while >.<

I don't know if it was you but, I remember joining some random "xmas server" back in the day and the goal was to just mow people down (maybe zombies) using a combine harvester.

your work made me remember of that 😛 it's just out of ordinary

we try to spotlight "open-source" stuff more often so that everyone can experience it at some point but it's not a rule, so no worries there

I wanted to do something that wasn't "DayZ", or "Rust" - My original intention was "Battle Royale" style, but I thought this could be impacted by lobby wait times that would be dependent on playerbase.

Oh damn, that's a pain man! I'm glad you have it sorted now!

Hahaha that's gold, those random gamemodes and servers are core memories for my early days. Unfortunately that wasn't me, but I do remember you trying to out 1 or 2 of my projects 👀

I understand that! Well if you ever fancy any material to inspire people and show off some of MTA's capabilities I'm sure I can rustle something up 😄

I have seen this project when it was first built and I can say that it is really great, there are some developers in MTA and I see that these developers are creating very nice projects and content in MTA and this attracts my attention, I hope they will continue their success, you are great
