Respect Money Power is a comprehensive gameplay modification introducing dynamic gang interactions, an intricate drug economy, strategic crew management, engaging missions, territorial warfare and more.
Drug Trafficking
Become a drug dealer in Los Santos with an immersive drug dealing system. The mod features eight distinct drug types that can be aquired through purchasing, missions, or defeating rival dealers.- Drug Dealers: Interact with various dealers scattered across the map, trading in a variety of drugs. Prices vary, allowing you to buy low and sell high based on market dynamics. Ocassionally, there is a chance the drug deal might get busted by the police.
- Street Dealing: Sell drugs directly to pedestrians, with their response depending on factors like gender and age, offering a realistic street-level dealing experience.
- Delivery Dealing: Receive orders and deliver drugs around the city, typically involving larger amounts of drugs.
Crew Management
Build and manage your own crew to control the streets of Los Santos. Once you've gained enough respect within your gang, you can begin recruiting gang members.- Gaining Respect: Increase your status within your gang by successfully completing missions, eliminating rival gang members, and taking over territories. Higher respect unlocks the ability to recruit more crew members.
- Assign Roles: Designate specific tasks to your crew members, such as dealing drugs for generating income or acting as bodyguards to protect you from threats.
- Skill Development: Crew members possess individual stats in hustle, combat, and respect that influence their performance. These stats can improve over time, making each member more effective in their designated roles.
- Respect and Loyalty: Keep your crew's respect high through fair and regular payments. Low respect risks members leaving your crew.
Strategic Deployment
Maximizing the potential of earnings of your crew involves thoughtful placement of dealers across the four distinct gang-controlled zones of South Los Santos.- Supply and Demand: Assign your dealers to zones where demand for drugs is high but supply is low. This ensures your operations are both profitable and sustainable.
- Coverage: Your crew’s coverage indicates how much of the zone’s demand your dealers are meeting. Avoid oversaturating a single area to prevent diminishing returns.
- Opposition: The presence of rival gang dealers affects supply, impacting your ability to meet demand. Eliminating them frees up demand and reduces competition.
- Balancing Act: Achieve a balance between maximizing your coverage and minimizing opposition to maximize profits.
Gangs and Territories
Bringing back an iconic feature from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, gangs in Los Santos are now real entities, each set controlling specific territories and showing unique behaviors, which contributes significantly to making the world feel more alive.- Territories: Players can conquer enemy territories by undermining their integrity through raids and eliminating their dealers. Conquered territories become a source of income for the player through passive earnings.
- Realistic Population: Territories are defined by a realistic population of gang members. Depleting a gang set’s numbers can significantly weaken their control over the area. Sets with high integrity can recruit new members to replenish their numbers.
- Street Dealers: Territories require a steady income from their street dealers to sustain themselves. Eliminating these dealers can gradually diminish the territory's integrity over time.
- Drive-by Raids: In gang territories, drive-by shootings are a constant threat, with gang vehicles targeting not only rivals but also the player. These attacks are spontaneous and unpredictable, adding to the sense of danger in the streets.
Missions
You can find random gang members throughout friendly territories offering missions, which can be identified by the question marks above their heads and on the map. Upon interaction, you'll receive mission details and the choice to accept or decline. There are currently three mission types:- Street Hustle: Sell a specific amount of drugs and return with the profits before the time limit expires.
- Mugging: Rob a rival gang member of their valuables without harming them.
- Hit Job: Eliminate a rival dealer. Beware of potential retaliation in the form of enemy drive-by attacks.
