As of this posting, quite a bit has changed in our city. We have recently moved to a completely customized version of the latest QBCore framework, as well as completed a complete city wipe on 1/1/22.

We relaunched with a full realistic economy, with new features and activities released regularly based on player progression and all done in RP. The next major release will be the first phase on drugs, and bank robberies.

Now is the perfect time to get in before we go full whitelist, and you get to start at the beginning of a new wipe!
