GTA V Co-op Story Mode Server Concept

### GTA V Co-op Story Mode Server Concept

**Overview:**
This is a custom co-op server for GTA V where up to three players control the main story characters—Michael, Franklin, and Trevor—and play through the single-player campaign together. However, the experience is enhanced with new side missions, pre-mission tasks, and business management, incorporating elements from GTA Online. This setup offers a fresh, engaging take on the original story, adding depth and replayability.

**Key Features:**

1. **Three-Player Co-op:**
   - Each player controls one of the main characters—Michael, Franklin, or Trevor—allowing for full co-op playthroughs of the single-player story.
   - **Dynamic Character-Specific Missions**: Each player progresses the story during their character’s missions, while the other two can engage in separate activities.

2. **Optional Pre-Mission Setup:**
   - Players can prepare for upcoming missions by completing **secret pre-mission tasks**, such as gathering vehicles, weapons, or scouting locations. These pre-mission activities can impact the main mission’s cutscenes and gameplay.
   - These tasks are **hidden with no in-game notifications**, encouraging players to explore and think outside the box. The actions feel like organic discoveries rather than scripted events.

3. **Challenging and Speedrun-Oriented Gameplay:**
   - The game is designed to be **very difficult**, promoting cooperative teamwork and strategy.
   - **Speedruns** are encouraged, where the best times could be achieved by players efficiently setting up for the next mission while one player progresses the story.
   - Players can skip or watch the **Prologue** as a cinematic, getting right into the main story without interaction during the intro sequence.

4. **Side Missions Tailored to Each Character:**
   - **Michael**: Runs a movie studio, handles family problems, and engages in high-end heists.
   - **Franklin**: Focuses on street racing, gang conflicts, real estate deals, and vehicle theft.
   - **Trevor**: Leads drug-running and arms-dealing operations, engages in rural rampages, and works as a bounty hunter.
   - Each character’s side missions are **unique to their background**, offering personalized gameplay.

5. **Integration of GTA Online Elements:**
   - **Arcades, Nightclubs, and Biker Clubs**: Elements from GTA Online, such as running businesses, are integrated into the co-op experience.
   - **Business Management**: Each character manages their own business (e.g., Michael runs an arcade, Franklin runs a nightclub, and Trevor leads a biker gang). These businesses offer both legitimate income and criminal operations.
   - **Heist Preparation**: Businesses can double as fronts for **heist planning** and preparation, offering vehicles, weapons, and other resources for major missions.

6. **Immersive and Dynamic World:**
   - **Secret Pre-Mission Missions**: The pre-mission tasks feel organic and immersive, making players believe they are coming up with their own strategies, though these actions have subtle scripted consequences.
   - **Cutscene Integration**: Pre-mission activities can be reflected in mission cutscenes, making them feel even more immersive and rewarding for the players who prepare ahead.

7. **Replayability and Strategy:**
   - Players can explore **different ways to approach missions**, including doing pre-mission prep or skipping it to challenge themselves.
   - The side content and businesses add layers of strategy and role-playing elements to the co-op experience, giving players the freedom to approach missions and challenges in various ways.

**Note:**
This is just an idea and is subject to change. The project still needs someone to handle the coding and development aspects.
