Welcome to Los Santos
6 Years of Roleplay with RPUK! After multiple attempts, scraps, changes, and overhauls. RPUK is finally ready to release a Roleplay server for Grand Theft Auto V (FiveM) which we are able to maintain and consistantly update. I'm sure you have loads of questions and suggestions, please hold them until you have read this post.
Introduction
Our initial plan with the server is going back to a roleplay-focused community where roleplay and unique scenarios take precedence over everything else! Upon joining you will notice not everything is fed to you with a spoon, not everything is marked, a lot is on the map and has to be worked out through roleplay and adventure! Initially we have 3 whitelisted roles: the police and NHS can be applied for by accessing the relevant areas of the forums; The Lost MC application processes and recruitment will become clear soon enough. Put away your differences, and your heavy weapons because we are in this for the long haul.
The development team are fully expecting there to be rough edges on launch, with some unique incidents which can only be replicated 1 in a 100 times. Please report any bugs or issues to the relevant forum section. There is a full set of server rules visible in-game using the F5 menu, and on the community forums.

Installing and Getting Involved
The FiveM Client runs separate from the GTA 5 Client, however still requires GTA 5 to be purchased and installed. You can download the launcher/client via the link below. The install client should run you through the rest. Please note you need to have Steam running in order to play on our servers.

Connect via the server browser by typing, "Roleplay.co.uk" and the following will appear:
General Questions
How Many Slots?
Currently we are set at 64 which is going to be constantly assessed by development/management. Once we have optimised the server, resources and framework to run with more clients, we will increase the server limit.
How to Contribute and Suggest?
The community corner of the forums includes suggestions, submissions, bug reports, and development applications! It all helps!
Who will run the Factions?
The existing Altis Life police and NHS commands (3 CMOs and 3 CCs) will initially run the respective factions. The reason behind this decision was to have an experienced command team for release; people who are able to arrange training and documentation (the backend). Management and the developer team will monitor progress closely and will actively assess the best way forward for the long-term, including a change of command. The aim will be to separate the AltisLife and GTARP 'ways of life' completely, yet retain a large degree of realism, commonsense and of course, entertainment!
Updates, Development and Server Progression
Initially the server will be hotfixed for any issues that come up which slipped through our bug testing. All player data will be safe during these times. We plan on doing frequent suggestion and functionality updates and larger overhaul/roadmap updates every few months. This allows us to implement suggestions and functionality depending on feedback. Roadmaps and finalised plans are yet to be 100% confirmed but I will be in communication over the next few weeks about some big plans!
