Use `/gangster`, or press `X` and choose `Go Gangster`.

After going gangster, join a group and focus on:

* `[[Turfing]]`

== Gangster notes ==

Gangster is a group based side.

It is mainly built around:

* Turfing
* Group fights
* Briefcases
* Hijack missions
* Gangster PvP

Gangsters mainly make money from:

* Turf payouts
* Group rewards
* Briefcases
* Hijack missions

In `LV`:

* gameplay runs `20%` faster than normal
* active play gives `25%` more pay and earn limit

Gangster gameplay is split into 2 main cities:

* [[Los Santos]]
* [[Las Venturas]]

Los Santos and Las Venturas do not work exactly the same, so they are usually explained separately.

== How to become a gangster ==

To become a gangster:

* Use /gangster
* Or press X and click Go Gangster

After becoming a gangster, the main thing to do is join a gang or group first.

Then focus on turfing, Briefcases, Hijack missions, and /highlight.

== How the Gangster Side Works ==

Gangster is different from the [[Criminal]] side.

Gangsters focus on groups, turfs, and gangster tools.

A lot of gangster gameplay is based on group control and group fighting, not solo play.

Turfs belong to groups, not solo players.

== LS and LV ==

Gangster gameplay is split between LS and LV.

=== LS Gangster ===

LS gangster gameplay focuses on:

* LS turfing
* [[Graffiti]]
* Group turf fights

Los Santos has 39 turfs.

Several [[LS Turfs|LS turfs]] are [[Drug Turfs|drug turfs]].

LS turfs reset every 7 days.

=== LV Gangster ===

LV gangster gameplay focuses on:

* LV turfing
* Turf wars
* Briefcases
* Group fights

Las Venturas has 79 turfs:

* 60 land turfs
* 14 [[Sea Turfs|sea turfs]]
* 5 [[Oil Turfs|oil turfs]]

[[Oil Turfs|Oil turfs]] are the 5 [[LV Turfs|LV turfs]] that give oil instead of cash.

One important difference is:

* LV Gangsters can use grenades and RPGs
* LS Gangsters cannot

== Turfing ==

Turfing is gangster PvP where groups fight for map areas and fill the capture bar to 100% to take control.

To turf properly, you need:

* Gangster side
* A gang or group

How turfing works:

# Enter the turf zone as a gangster in a group.

# Stay inside it to build control.

# Defend it while your group builds the bar.

Important turfing [[rules]] include:

* Getting killed lowers your group's control
* Defending or re entering the turf stops the other group from taking it

In LV, the turf is taken by standing in it and defending it.

In LS, turfing also uses graffiti and influence control.

If a group has nobody online in LV, its turf percent drops 3 times faster.

== Turf Rewards ==

Holding turfs gives group rewards.

These can include:

* Passive income
* Group reputation or XP
* [[Drugs]]
* Oil
* [[Iron]]
* Other [[resources]]

A defended turf gives your group reputation.

Holding it also keeps its passive payout.

Turfing also gives 120+ RP depending on your activity and time in the turf.

== Other Gangster Activities ==

=== Briefcase ===

Briefcase is a gangster only competitive task in LS or LV.

A Briefcase spawns randomly on the map.

A gangster picks it up and runs it on foot to the van blip while other players try to kill them and steal it.

While carrying it:

* You cannot glue
* You cannot enter [[vehicles]]
* You can use /dropitem to drop it

In LS, the Briefcase shows as a brown briefcase blip.

In LV, it shows as a green dollar sign.

=== Hijack ===

Hijack is an LS gangster mission.

To start it:

# Join gangster side.

# Look for the purple car blip.

# Enter the [[Vehicles|vehicle]] to start the mission.

Other gangsters can interfere and steal the vehicle if you are too slow or stop moving.

Hijack gives cash and 1,000 RP.

The cash reward depends on gangster count and delivery distance.

=== Weed Farm ===

[[Weed Farm|Weed Farm]] is a gangster only harvest activity.

Use /weedtime to check whether the harvest is ready.

Go to [[Weed]] Farm with a Combine Harvester and harvest the field to collect 1000 weed.

Harvesting also gives [[Wanted Points|wanted points]].

== Commands and Tools ==

Useful gangster commands and tools include:

* /gangster
* /highlight
* /lasttakeover
* /weedtime
* /dropitem

Use F11 to check turfs on the map.

In LS, you may need to zoom in more to see the turf clusters clearly.

Use /highlight to mark groups or players so they are easier to track in fights.

[[Gangster Highlight]] has these tabs:

* Group
* Players
* Customize

Group highlights stay after reconnecting or logging in.

Use /lasttakeover to see who made the last LS and LV takeover and when it happened.

== Rules and Notes ==

* Gangster is group based gameplay.
* Gangsters can kill other gangsters anywhere outside AR and CE.
* The `AR` and [[riot]] gangster hurt rules also apply to unwanted gangsters and `GIU`.
* `GIU` and gangsters can damage each other's vehicles.
* Unwanted gangsters do not get `RP` for killing `GIU`.
* Gangsters cannot [[damage]] APBs, and APBs cannot damage gangsters.
* Gangsters can use /criminal while wanted.
* LV is the gangster and turf war city.
* LS is the [[cops]] and robbers city.

== Tips ==

Useful gangster tips include:

* Join a group first
* Turf as a group
* Stay in the zone
* Focus on the bar
* Bring [[armor]]
* Bring [[food]]
* Bring drugs
* Bring a good vehicle
* Use /highlight in fights
