breaking news about citizen iv

[yusufennab201]

dear argonath users
unfortunately citizen iv was offically closed
i was trying to open the client today it gave me an error so i decided to enter the website  it gave me the following
"This project got closed by Cfx.re. Thank you for 4 beautiful years."
so it was decided for the project to get to it's end
type F for the website

I don't know what's happening. There was a hint in the element chat of cfx.re that the latest update of Citizen called "future" was using stolen code, after that CitizenIV website closed down and now the official account posts this. Something tells me they were pissed about it and decided to do their own version...

I hope we get some clear news in the next hours/days whatever it takes.

Translation:

Dear players, as you probably already know, the CitizenMP: IV project has closed.  From now on, multiplayer for GTA 4 will be developed by the FiveM team.  https://cfx.re/
 We would like to thank you all for your activity on our project, without you we would not have achieved such success.  

 P.S.  The group will be closed on 03/21/2021, you can write your memories in the comments or throw screenshots.

So, T4 isn't being updated, CitizenIV which was in development has been taken down due to copyright issues. The server at it's current state is literally dead.

 I wonder what the future plan for Argonath GTA IV division is if it's not being shut down.

Hail T3!

I believe you guys on the forum need to be informed as well, the developer behind CitizenIV (Lion) has decided to do things silently and started working again on the older client (the only one that complies with Cfx license according to them, probably because it's very old code, lol). From what i've seen he is keeping releases on CitizenIV discord, i don't know what the plans are from Argonath now but there is also the, expected, news that LibertyM won't come any time soon.
The reason why? This is what one of the CFX devs behind said in a chat: https://imgur.com/a/KxIZelC

It's obvious theirs was just an attempt to stop Lion from improving CitizenIV, probably they felt bad one guy had done more work than the CFX team did one year since the first announcement (Yes, LibertyM was brought to light in 2020 on their Twitter).

Didn't post this yday as someone might've thought it was an april fool prank
