5.1Criminal Activities

Gang Limits & Scene Caps

Gangs cap at 5 members. General scene cap is 5 per side. Specific heists have their own limits — and those apply to the PD too. Involvement counts everyone helping.

Gang roster cap

  • A gang can have a maximum of 5 members total. Anyone you bring in, give colours to, or routinely coordinate criminal activity with counts toward this cap — refer to the gang Discord for more detail.

General on-scene cap

  • A maximum of 5 players from your gang can be involved in any standard criminal activity — kidnappings, ambushes, and heists not listed below.

Specific heist & activity limits

The following maximums apply to specific scenarios. These limits apply to BOTH the criminals and the PD on scene.

  • Store Robbery: max 3
  • Fleeca Bank: max 4
  • Pacific Bank: max 5
  • Bobcat: max 5
  • Humane Labs: max 7
  • Merryweather: max 7
  • FIB: max 10

Gang vs. Gang

  • The standard limit for Gang vs. Gang scenes is 5 players per side. This can only be adjusted if explicitly approved and agreed upon by both gangs beforehand.

What "involvement" means

  • Lookouts, scouts, back-up, getaway drivers, "interference" vehicles, and anyone coordinating on the radio all count toward your on-scene cap. If you are contributing to the scene in any way, you count toward the total.

Reserves & bystanders

  • Members not actively participating — at home, at the garage, on an unrelated job across town — do not count toward the on-scene cap, as long as they don't drift in mid-scene. Do not try to rotate players in halfway through to dodge the cap; staff count everyone who showed up.

Non-gang help

  • If a civilian or a member of another gang assists you with a criminal activity, they count toward your on-scene cap for that scenario. They do not count toward your 5-member roster — that cap is yours alone.

Roleplay over Ruleplay

  • The Roleplay over Ruleplay standard can apply here. If a gang or the police are using extra numbers strictly to enhance the storytelling and bring a better roleplay experience to the scenario, exceptions can be made.
