coming out this december the newest GTA game will hit the mmorg genre. it will feature many differn't classes, IE a criminal, you rob people, assasins kill, and there will be good guys dont fret, they can be cops or under cover agents. later on cops can switch classes to FBI agent for example. and yes you can play a drug dealer.

ladies, dont fret, there will also be a prostitue class.
Instead of the boreing guilds, you will now join "gangs". this plays an important role when you are given quests, some may ask you to retrive a car from a bad part of town, and everyone whos part of the gang there can kill you, ie PVP!
you can also buy an apartment or house, but at first you'll just be renting at the hotels. the benefits of houses are storage, weapon and vehicles. there is a downside, criminal class can sneak in if you have a crappy security system and rob you when you're not home. you will have a special text message sent to your in game phone saying someone is breaking in, then you tell your gang and go there and kick the person's ass in. oh yeah the phone is how you communicate. you can send a system wide message which is texted to everyone, or you can talk to people. if you do a /send to soemone they get the message you sent on their in game phone that rings. oh yeah dont call someone at a bad time, like if they are sneaking around the enemy gangs HQ, you can hear the *bleep Bleep* and get everyones attention. yes you can turn the phones off.

when you die you end up at the hospital in which case you have to pay a medical fee (you also have some sick effects that last for an hourish), if you are caught you end up in the prison, which you have to spend a certain number of RL hours depending how many stars you had from your crime spree. fellow gang members can bail you out..for another fee. oh yeah lawenforcement players, you get some mucho cash and exp if you can arrest someone depending how many stars they have, and because the punishment is severly harsh criminals tend to not want to be taken alive :D
exp in this game doesn't really count towards a real lvl however, its more like rank or status exp. you use it to change jobs later on, and the higher jobs get better skills like more hps or better use with weapons. car jacker for example can pick and hot wire a car much faster than a normal criminal. and they are the only class to actually be able to break in and disable car alarms. everyone else has to let the whole neighborhood know you stole it which gives you a star automaticaly. while the car jacker gets away scot free, sells the car and does it again. there are special cars that people will probably camp because they sell for so much, yeah instead of mobs they have to camp cars, is so funny.
look for it in stores, this christmas.
