It's been quite a time since the last major update. I do expect a huge update in the near future. Some new features I would like to see are listed below:-
- Drug system
- Crew System
- Casino Heist
- Lowered weapon cost for civilians
- Maybe bring back Monster Truck as a donator exclusive vehicle too

As discussed above about "nerfing" cops, I don't think it's something Mike can do just by a single change of script since the problem is not entirely in the script but in the mindset of other players. He can't force players to play as a cop or criminal. Most of the players play as a cop because of the stereotype created by other players about how overpowered it is to be a cop. My suggestion is to make cops lose more money (say $1000) upon dying so they don't relentlessly keep attacking criminals. Also, increase the prices for their ammo. Cops can literally buy ammo at 1/10th the price of Ammunation which is another reason why people feel cops are overpowered. Other suggestions could be made later but these kinda feel necessary to me at the moment.

Hello everyone hope u all doing well.
There are many ups and down in last 6 month in mcnr.. But that doesn't mean You all Start criticise mcnr.

lack of updates doesn't mean server is bad or slowly dying.. Fun fact is that players saying they will leave server if server not get update soon..

I bet u there is not a single player who intentionally leave mcnr(ban is a exception) bcoz environment created by mike on mcnr is unique and you will not find this type of server in whole samp.
If u just want to do rdm and happy to use aimbot and other cheats then definitely u got a prblm in this server.
While on other server even a noob player fuck a pro player with the help of aimbot and other cheat hacks.

Mcnr is all about to enjoy ur free time with ur Frnds

in this server which has many things to do just for eg. There is a Seperate place for duel. But if u use aimbot just to kill other and increase ur k/d ratio so my Frnd this server not for u and we don't need thwse types of player who ruin other games just for fun..

I accept that updates are delaying But u have to wait for good things.. Mike is alone who script this whole mcnr so he need time.. He has life also family as well hes not like many of u who dont have life but just to play game and ruin other gameplay

I noticed only those players comment on this post Who just want DM nothing else but there are many things in mcnr to do.

Balance server..
Let's take an exmaple to understand this
1. Total player 30 12cops amd 18 civ
Players are so fucked up in this situation bcoz cop are more than enough bcoz they killed by criminal everytime.
And the prblm arise from This point

2. Total players 30. 22civ and 8 cops
In this situation criminal are so happy bcoz they fuck cops everytime by gangup, now they don't have prblm.
I just wanna ask why u have prblm when u killed by cops and why not when u kill a cop.

I'm not denying to balance server it should be but be logically talking on 1 side is not enough.
Well enjoy playing mcnr there r lots of thing to do. Good luck

So many people want the cops to be nerfed but in my opinion, there's a good counter-suggestion to boost the payouts that civilians/criminals get, which would create a situation of high risk / high gain for criminals specifically, but that belongs more to the suggestions board anyway.

Elsewise overall, the server is doing well but I don't know how many (potential) players are willing to put up with the increasing toxicity and lenient handling thereof. Perhaps it's just me but I prefer it when people don't turn (at least) the main chat into a slur-fest.

(Oh, and the economy. Us peaceful players need more stuff to spend our hard-earned cash on instead of being easy prey for pickpockets. Ammo is good but there's only so much you can buy if you don't really use it)

How about fix the staff members first,
No one gives a shit about anything else

-Increase civilian job's payouts

-Get rid of this https://mikescnr.com/forum/index.php/topic,12971.0.html There is nothing more annoying when you and your driver about to win in a 4 vs 2 situation, and you just get fucked by police because the anti cheat detects rapid fire in m4 drive by...

-I support Redx's idea, make cops lose 5 - 10k per death, and also rise their weapon prices as well and make civilian's weapon prices a little bit lower, since it is more difficult to be a criminal then a donut eater.

-Remove swat helmet. Since Mike doesn't understand why do we want to remove that helmet protection that hard, it's because let's say you and your friend robbing the bank for that 10 - 18k dollars. Then suddenly another 2 cops came out of nowhere, and the driver has the SWAT skin with his helmet on, which is a big advantage for the driver, if the drive bying criminal doesn't have a good drive by aim accuracy.

That is how i see.

Hello!

I have not been playing for a while due to personal stuff and i don't see myself spending time here just to eventually quit because some People just Like to kill others because they are "helping their friend" or make fun of me because they are bored.
So i just watch the forums and so far it has only been a dissapointment. Immaturity, disrespect and overall unhuman behaviour so im not even surprised some people don't look up the forums.

The server has a bright future if the players would turn from, Let's learn new players that the only thing to do here is shoot/kill/drive-by/respawn/show off...
to: Let's have some fun, improvise and explore what we haven't seen yet.

Cheers.

Theres a reason why the server is quite simply boring.. its because we explored everything there is
robbed bank more than i can count.
fished till lvl 100.. no need for fishing after that
went cop and reached lvl 10.. nothing else to do
medic.. ill get bored same for firefighter.
Like yall keep on saying kill cops bla bla bla.. meanwhile theres nothing else to do.

Once these new players lvl up and shit.. they will do the exact same thing im doing. go ahead and kill cops and most probably quit because cops are way to overpowered or simply go cop to avoid losing all of ur money ( meaning they will team up and ruin the fun for mws or the other new players tryna grind the game)

its just the cycle of the server right now.

in my opinion, mike no longer wants to commit more than the bare minimum to MCNR.

Mike can't dedicate the time that MCNR needs right now simply because Mike doesn't have the time to do it and he wants to (if you want to do something you'll find time)

I say this also because some features promised for years have not yet been implemented, just see that https://mikescnr.com/forum/index.php/topic,33.0.html was updated 3 years ago....

I can understand that he works, he has his own life and also his problems, but MCNR was born from him (he said it took him years to develop it) so he must assume the responsibility that if MCNR dies it is only his fault (the community is a consequence) and if for 3 years we haven't seen any major game-changing updates, then I have to think that Mike doesn't feel like updating anymore.

I don't know how long MCNR will last, also because it's not the first time such a discussion has been created and nothing ever changes, you always read the usual answers from the staff but in the end nothing concrete.

In my opinion, by 2025/2027 we will see the end of MCNR (if not before) I hope that Mike is working behind that PC and releases something concrete that satisfies the requests and needs of the community.

Mike discards suggestions that are really beautiful only because he would never be able to find the time and above all the will to do it.

We all know that before releasing an update, various tests and tests are done, and before that god only knows how difficult it is to turn an idea into code, but nothing concrete has been seen for years and unfortunately these are the facts.

To date, many players have left MCNR, and new players get tired of the monotony and quit at some point.

Change my mind...

Believe me, nobody wants regular updates for MCNR more than me. I find myself waiting for a time in my life where I am not too tired, overworked, depressed and unmotivated to work on MCNR. It has become apparent that I am waiting for a time that probably isn’t coming any time soon.

My long-term partner and I separated about 6 months ago and I’ve been pretty down since then to be honest and I still am. I don’t seem to have the same enthusiasm for sitting and coding MCNR for countless hours a week any more. You would not believe how much time simple things take to code. There’s a reason I work on silly things or so-called insignificant things - because if I didn’t my output would be zero. I work on minor things because at the moment it’s all I have the energy and time for.

Since my partner left I’ve also taken on paying all the bills. My full-time job doesn’t cover that and I’ve been working 7 days a week in 3 jobs for a few months now. It’s tiring. I have actually just last week quit my 3rd job and changed my second job from Fri-Sun to Wed-Fri. That means on Wed-Fri I’ll work my main job 07:30-16:00 and my second job 17:00-22:00. But it means I have Sat and Sun free and my main reason for doing this is to focus on MCNR more. I feel awful for neglecting it and I’m very thankful to everyone that has stuck around and shown support (especially Karbz; MCNR would be fucked without him).

I also have some time off work coming up in March, April and May (10 days each). That will give me some time to work on MCNR properly.

I do take ALL feedback on board but just because the community majoritively wants something doesn’t mean I want it and at the end of the day it’s my server and it’s my decision the direction I want things to go.

I never intended 1.15 to take this long. I don’t even think it’s THAT major of an update really. It’s just been challenging to invest time in as there’s always bugs to fix. I’ve also made countless improvements and fixes in the staff system and internally that nobody outside staff will even realise.

I have thought about quitting it a few times to be honest but I’m so not ready to give up. I’m really pleased with this community and script and once again am grateful to everyone that plays. I never even thought MCNR would launch. Or I thought it would have 2 people on it (myself and my laptop lol).

I have so many fantastic plans for MCNR in the future. I just hope I can get it there.
