Hello everyone! We’ll be trying out a new monthly announcement system to better keep you guys informed on what is being worked on and what’s to come.

Your Suggestions!

These are suggestions that have been made in the last month that are now under consideration. We’ll be testing out how to make these features available and next month’s post will relay the status of where we are at with them. Thank you all for your thoughts and input.​

  • Suggestions from multiple users: New perks for ranks || New Cars || More Side Robberies
  • Yhia suggested: functional airport(s)
  • Yaoke suggested: Baby Foxes added to the pet shop
  • nVar suggested: Giving miners the ability to have ores directly put in their inventories instead of dropping on the floor || Increasing /vote rewards & better marketing
  • arcaes & Yaoke suggested: Functional use for drugs other than roleplay + a sell option

Calling all McCitizens...

We're creating the opportunity for select players to manage the following island

Some of the criteria required for applying:

I am very excited to be heading into the 2020 year with all of you! We have gone through a lot in the past year, and I apologize for being inactive in its early months. However, I am so grateful to come back to such an amazing community, and I'm looking forward to working as the new owner in this upcoming year.

We have a lot planned for the next few months, but I would love to hear any thoughts or suggestions from you guys!
You can leave your thoughts in the comments below or find me in the server discord https://discord.gg/fyUYTVv

A quick message to my staff team - You are all so reliable, and I love you all so much. Thank you for all your hard work on the server.

And to the players, thank you all for being a part of this server. Outstanding support after so many years. I couldn't ask for more.

IMPORTANT Upcoming City Changes

Hello, Players of McCities.

We, as a staff team, are working on significant changes to the cities that will be occurring over the next few months. Most importantly, the world NewCity (Regions inside Goldenoaks & Blumont) will be removed in its entirety. We will be working to redevelop the older areas of Cayman. Renovating neighborhoods and transferring plots from NewCity into Cayman. With this change, we will be offering a chance to trade any unused Blumont & Goldenoaks plots for an unregioned plot on Cayman. If this is something you're interested in, be sure to contact Smilinq.

We truly believe this change is for the better and will improve the experience for players on the server. We'll be sure to follow up on upcoming updates.

[Event] Murder Mystery week 4 (Submit Police Report here!)

  • 1,919

A Murder took place on McCities

It has been 3 weeks since the tragic murder. The Police are happy to announce that the Murderer has been apprehended, thanks to the hard work of the Detectives. The police used the info on the Data Drive and found out where the Murderer is hiding. We thought the Mystery was finally solved, but the Judge said we need more evidence to make this a solid case. We don't know where the murderer was operating from, why he killed the victim and where he went after the murder at /warp bank.

Thankfully we do have 1 more lead for you to follow Detective. We know for a fact that the base is somewhere in the sewer system at /warp bank. We need you to go down there, but be careful! The sewers are a dangerous place. Follow the trails and hopefully you can find the Hidden Base!

Once you have gathered all the...

[Event] Murder Mystery Week 3!!

A murder took place on Cities...

2 weeks have passed since the terrible murder at /warp bank and the murderer is still on the loose. Last night however we think the murderer reappeared in the City. A silent robbery took place at the News Station in Cayman. There are many valuable items in the vault but only 1 item was taken. Please inspect the vault for clues and track down the stolen item. I have strong faith this item will give us more insights to the murder and might give us the final clues to solve the Mystery.

The News Building is at /warp city to your right. Here's a picture. Go inside and the cops will guide you to the vault.

Save this server, catch the murderer and solve this case!

Good luck Detective,

IMPORTANT New City Update

  • 3,963
  • 20
Not so long ago i made a post detailing the idea of a new city. We have already started the project of creating this city but it wouldnt be right to give you guys the plan of how this city is to be laid out and the plan for it so here it is:
The city will have 4 districts. This is to keep things more organised and not everything all over the place. We aim to encourage transport and may be updating/new vehicle plugin to support this.

HOUSING:
This district will contain all the housing that is available in the new city. it will then contain 3 somewhat gated communities within it including a cheaper/smaller area a more middle-sized homes and then one for mansions/larger homes.
CITY CENTRE:
This is the main area of the city. Its where all the business will go. There will be a designated area for most of the current jobs and where they will be located within the city centre. This will also be a place for new companies to flourish. With that we may have an in-game stock...

IMPORTANT Bank Robbery

Hello all, the much anticipated bank robbery is now ready to go live. However this plugin is different from last time so i will give you guys a quick rundown on how the plugin works
This robbery now has organised crews
To create a crew type: /robbery crew which will bring you this screen
Here you can then click to invite a player this will then bring you a prompt where you need to type a players name.
Repeat the same process if you wish to delete a crew or invite someone else.


Now to begin the robbery you will need to find the NPC who can start the heist. But i obviously wont tell you which npc it is:Evil:

Once you find the NPC Shift-RighClick and this screen will appear...

IMPORTANT A new city

  • 2,232
  • 15
Hello everyone hope you are doing well
The staff at mccities with the aid of the architects have decided having a fresh brand new city would benefit the server. The focus of this is to freshen up the server as the current city we have has been there for 5 years.
This new city will not result in the current one we have being deleted so do not worry about your plots getting lost but however just add more to the city we have. We will be working on some sort of transportation method to try and eliminate the use of some warps
We don’t expect this to be done overnight and are hoping this to be done within 1-4 months if things go smoothly.
If you do have any questions let us know down below
Thank you as always

Hello players,
If you have tried to join the server you will see that it is down. We are currently running into some host issues and are trying to resolve them hence the whitelist is up. Check back on this post often for any updates i will provide.
There is currently NO estimated time as to when server will be up.
Thank you as always,

IMPORTANT Plot Rule Changes

  • 2,023
  • 13
Hello Everyone,
As you are aware, as of recent plot activity allowed a 60 day time period where you could be inactive before plots would be revoked. This is now being reduced to 45 days. This rule will take into effect 2 weeks after this post. If you have concerns please leave them down below and i will do my best to answer them all.
Thank You
