screammm Posted March 17, 2020 Report Share Posted March 17, 2020 I come from Arma 3, where getting involved in gang life was done by applying to whatever gang/group you wanted to provided you met requirements. As someone who wants to get involved in this area of RP here on Eclipse, what do you guys think is the best way to get involved? Would love to hear if you guys have any stories about how you started or recommendations for me. I mainly just take peoples money at Tequilala right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeInnit_ Posted March 17, 2020 Report Share Posted March 17, 2020 Spend time on the server to get a picture of which faction relates to you the best then find one of their members ic and introduce yourself. Criminal factions normally use a uniform or colour so they're easily identifiable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaesarSeizure Posted March 17, 2020 Report Share Posted March 17, 2020 You could check the faction threads as well, to get a better view of what and how they work. Other than that just spending time on the server and getting to know the people, while im not in a gang, i do interact with them quite a lot, and prefer some over others for their RP. There are also big and small gangs, so also depends what you would prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screammm Posted March 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 plus i think it isnt the fairest to only allow gangs access to the better guns. doesnt really give individuals much of a chance in a firefight. just my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But on topic to your first message that started this topic; Get yourself known out on the streets, make alot of friends, make good money aswell, stock up on some guns, get a nice vehicle (Doesn't have to be a 500k vehicle). Also, it is never bad to start in a smaller gang and then once you feel like you're ready, you can try for the biggest gangs, or.. start your own, it's really up to you, but once you've made some good connections in the criminal side, you should be fine. Make sure to check out some faction forum posts to see their OOC requirements aswell before you try and join them, since it's required. Good amount of EXP is never bad either, most times you need minimum of around 25k EXP to join a big gang. And yeah like Jake said, the gangs are pretty easily recognizable because of their colors. If you go up to one of them when you feel like you're ready, some guns, good vehicle, some money, it should go from there, they'll put you through to a Recruiter.. etc, but the rest is up to you to discover In-Character -Kasper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justpositivity Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 Glad you asked how we started out, when I wanted to join the rooks it wasn't easy to get a hold of them, only time I would really see them is when I'm rolled up on while cooking dugs, I would then be robbed and left alone like you did and nearly gave up several times. Despite that I still tried my best to get a hold of them and started to hang around by he bank where they would sometimes be, I would then approach them and eventually got the number of a recruiter. @screammm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandonGotti Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 Consistently drive around the city, meeting everyone and anyone you good. Keep good interactions, as you NEVER get a second chance to make a FIRST impression. You eventually will run into someone who has beneficial information for you leading up to how you could join a faction or a gang. My recommendation would be to stay legal for as long as you could, work at LSC, Bayview, Weazel News, or DCC. You won't believe how many people you'll meet just because of your job. It works, and can guide you in the right direction you want to go. In regards to gangs, just find the gang you want to rock with, and talk to any of the members you see until you can get ahold of the recruiter, which from there will be as smooth as a baby's bottom as long as you play your cards right. Best of luck, Brandon Gotti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
