Dear Players & Community Members,
It's with a heavy heart that we are announcing the closure of the Limelight CityRP servers. We're approaching the 6 year anniversary of Limelight Gaming and it's clear that it's time for the CityRP journey to come to an end. Some people will note that this move is potentially overdue however we've never been a team that gives up easily. Our attempts to revive the server have not worked out despite the play sessions initially showing positive signs, and we understand that this might be a result of actions being taken too late.
With the team no longer able to commit as much time, dedication, and money as would be needed to restore the CityRP server to its former status, we've made the difficult decision to finally say goodbye. This is not the end for Limelight, for example, our ADS community is still going strong and we intend on continuing to work together as a team under the Limelight Development banner to produce new things, including making CityRP2 public either through open-source or sale.
Finally, some silver lining news, we will be having a big farewell event for the CityRP server on August 6th (6 year anniversary!) at 7 PM GMT+1 (UK time) with a twist - we've dusted off and fixed up the original 2015 gamemode for a CityRP Classic experience which only seemed fitting for such an event. The CityRP Classic server has a separate, fresh database and all players will receive $2m and donator status upon joining in order to facilitate as much roleplay freedom as possible.
Thank you to all players for sticking with us over the years, for all of the happy memories, and thank you to the whole Limelight team including the veterans and people who have contributed throughout Limelight for everything.
For one night only, please join us in giving a big sendoff to the gamemode we grew up playing and loving, and let's do it in style.
Lots of Love,
Bambo, Doctor Internet, Pinky, Burnett, Livkx
