The RP world’s shifting fast — and only the servers built to last are keeping up. From Rockstar’s next big move to the death of menu RP, this week’s scene is shaping the future of what we all play, build, and stream. Here’s what’s making noise across FiveM right now.

Rockstar’s Next Move in RP

The rumors are real — Rockstar isn’t stepping back from RP, they’re moving in. Developers behind the FiveM platform are reportedly working closer than ever with Rockstar’s backend systems, setting up direct integration paths for GTA VI.

We’re talking:

Framework-level support
Verified server tools
Better anti-cheat and security

When that door opens, every legit city that’s been doing it right is going to get noticed. And when that happens, leadballoon RP will already be built on the right foundation.

The End of Menu Servers

Let’s be honest — the “100K or Die” era was fun for about a month. Now it’s stale. People are tired of endless grinding, instant Lambos, and admins who think they’re gods.

The new wave? Realism. Storylines. Progression.

Servers built for long-term immersion are pulling the real player base back in — the ones who care about character arcs, jobs, and organic conflict. leadballoon RP fits right into that lane: no fluff, no fake hype — just adult RP that feels alive.

Security Crackdown Still Rolling

FiveM’s cleanup campaign isn’t slowing down. Servers using ripped assets or stolen scripts are getting wiped and blacklisted daily. And that’s a good thing.

It’s clearing the field for the cities built legit — the ones that put in the work instead of dragging code out of Discord leaks. The message is clear: Integrity’s back in style.

Performance Is Finally Catching Up

The latest FiveM builds are running smoother than ever — better optimization, tighter resource handling, and real performance under load.

That means:

Bigger cities with less lag
Real roleplay in crowded zones
Longer scenes without frame drops

If your city can handle 60 players in Legion without turning into a slideshow, you’re already winning. And guess what? leadballoon RP was designed for that chaos.

Streamers Are Scouting

With GTA VI looming and RP culture cleaner than ever, big-name streamers are back on the hunt for new servers to call home. And this time, they’re not looking for shortcuts — they’re looking for stories.

The cities that run smooth, look legit, and don’t crash every 20 minutes are going to take center stage fast. That’s where we’re headed.
