The latest update to a RPG server GTA Online brought Grand Theft Auto 5 to the top of the Twitch charts this week. For a hot minute, the open-world game was watched in broadcast by more than 400,000 people.
In late January, a new trailer announced the launch of the NoPixel 3.0 GTA RP server, a GTA Online server designed for RPG on an improvised San Andreas. Players can be criminals, police, normal people just making money, whatever, all existing in this ecosystem similar to an MMORPG game. The server is built using the FiveM modding framework and maintained by a dedicated team of volunteers.
The server is open, but you must sign up through the NoPixel website to be released for entry, with a waiting time of two to four weeks. This somewhat limited availability worked, however, because on Friday, 413,000 viewers were in tune with the creators on Twitch playing Grand Theft Auto 5. Part of the charm of NoPixel is that it’s community, you watch content creators and come in in the world yourself, everyone share the experience. The peak he created indicates a great stir among the player base, given that it is four times the current number of crime games.
Here is the NoPixel trailer:

Just a few weeks ago, another creative player from GTA 5 revealed a remake of Burnout 3 that (hopefully) could one day be played in GTA Online. Clearly, the sky is the limit for this community and the public is ready to see it all happen.
