What kind of MOD is this?
“Mega Cities 3.0v” is a Gameplay MOD by the author Vision. According to the description, it adds massive cities lined with skyscrapers to the world of 7 Days to Die, packing in dense streets, loot-filled buildings, and intense survival. It’s presented as a MOD that aims to deliver exploration and a constant fight against zombies across a map that is larger and more urban than vanilla.
Note that this page is a Nexus discussion page, so we recommend checking the original page for the finer details such as its distribution format and how the map is generated. As the name suggests, another notable point is that it is described as Client-Side.
Main Features
- Massive cities added ― It appears to create a cityscape that is larger and denser than vanilla, with high-rise buildings clustered together.
- More exploration volume ― With many loot-filled buildings, you can expect to spend more time walking the streets and gathering supplies.
- Higher combat density ― As the urban area expands, the number of zombies you encounter and the number of combat opportunities are likely to increase as well.
- Client-side setup ― The description says it is client-side, so the barrier to installing it may be relatively low.
Installation Tips
As with typical client MODs, it is expected to be installed by extracting it into the Mods folder. However, making cities this massive may involve world generation and map data, in which case you might need to start a new world or install a compatible map or prefabs. Be sure to check the original page for the specific steps and version compatibility (A21, 1.0 series, etc.). We also recommend backing up your save and Mods folder before installing.
Who is this for?
- Those who find vanilla cities lacking and want to roam a larger, more urban map
- Those who enjoy exploring high-rise buildings and city-clearing playstyles with plenty of supplies
- Those who want to take on dense zombie combat in urban areas
Conversely, for those who want to relax at a peaceful rural base or who prioritize a lightweight environment, it may not be a good fit in terms of performance load. If you’re curious, it’s a good idea to first try out the atmosphere in a small group or on a new world.
