Any CC guru's get anything good yet?

Cartel compound- limousine- loot: "the last call" cell phone bomb(not sure if consumble)
atk 25 def 18

looks like a winner if not consumable, could be best farmable weapon

-executive car- cartel compound- the desparado gun 27/18

Where did you get that info?

Edit: wow, just noticed the four new maps are live. Hopefully there is something worth farming.

Edit 2: I just got one of those last call explosives. It's replaced by the existing top end consumable explosives.

Wow yeah just checked that out. Got one with my first attempt. It'll be interesting to see what the drop rate is though, as well as whether or not it's consumable. Even if it is, a good enough rate may still make it worth farming.

Babytway
07-17-2012, 10:52 PM
yes if its not consumable i think could be the new m4's as far as farming items

Of course I'm not high enough level to access these levels. How are the buy ins? Anything over the $100M people projected?

Thanks for sharing Babytway! Something to get excited about again. It probably would have been weeks before I noticed that the new maps were open.

0/2 on limo, as the xplosive will be a loot item i think the chances of it being able to blow are very slim. Would be a nice weapon to farm for the defensive side.

Also, Why does it take 13bulldozers and 152 combat shotguns to get into a stretched limo at a cost of 70M for me and no loot from it? - maybe because after 13bulldozers have trampled over the limo followed by 152mafia members firing combat shotguns at it there really won't be anything left, let alone loot :(

Anyone got more than one so far for any idea on drop %?
I've been attacked and robbed and lost a few fights but the explosive hasn't been consumed yet so it's looking good so far.

Edit I'm 2 for 2 attempts now. Think it's definitely gonna replace the m4

I can confirm that "The Last Call" is non-consumable explosive.

Can anyone confirm that it does drop? It doesn't seems to drop in mine.

Drop rate is OK, I got 3 out 12

Is it a new way to make people level up and not to camp?

I think when you get to that level pretty much everyone can see you (I mean from high level players) so camping wouldn't do much? I think it may be a high stat weapon mainly because most other loot weapons aren't strong enough to help their stats enough

The last call seems to be better because it has a higher stats and less steps to complete the job.

i think that funzio has some kind of mechanism that raises or reduces the odds of getting items.
Yesterday that u were looting explosives i was getting cars (i'm level 126) and i was getting 1car/ 500 energy which is great.
Today the odds are much much worse

And this mechanism has to do with the events and the odds of getting crates for events

RijilV
07-19-2012, 07:20 AM
imho its probably a bug that got introduced when they added in support for dropping event items.

I've accumulated 26 of the Last Call explosives since yesterday afternoon. I have almost 2800 energy, so I've put it to good use on nothing but that.

Tere Anita = Last Call Explosive, The Limo and Tere Anita drop the same explosive.

If 1 explosive per map is non-consumable, you have a 50/50 chance of picking the consumable one.....ouch!

That's assuming Enah is right about 1 non consumable explosive per map. If all 4 maps have 2 drops, 1 easy 1 tough, what thoughts go through our minds on that little piece of cunning from the creators at large. Farm carefully people!

Another day worth of energy and no Last Call. Glad I saw a drop on day one so I know it is no myth.

Kudos to the community for not opening 7 thread a day on the topic. Did we grow wiser since the M4?

only at 11 of the stupid last calls, gonna take awhile to get 500 of those suckers. Also cool that there are two better than RP items found already - look forward to someone pulling through the plists to figure out what the real drop rates are.

I almost forgot the feeling of anticipation on the last click waiting to see whether a loot will drop from a nice spot and the satisfaction when one does 'pop'.

IMHO good loot farming spots add to the 'fun' of the game, not to a perceived 'imbalance' as they are there for everyone and hence innately 'fair'.

I'm sure these new maps will keep some players interested and maybe even excited about the game which will result in more spending rather than 'winning' and quitting all together.

Nice move Funzio/Gree.

Hopefully this works...first time posting photos.

New explosives, sorted by stat boost per expected energy per drop (times a 1,000 factor). Basically, bigger means more stats per energy.

And a bunch of the new loot sorted by stat per expected energy per drop (*1,000 factor). Due to screen size limitations I cut off the crappier ones.

Here's a comparison to other loot. I dropped the 1000 factor to 100 and filtered only loot items above 5 ATK and 5 DEF. The Street Envy vehicle at Cartel Compound, by my analysis, appears to be the best lootable item in the game (your inventory nonwithstanding). Last Call is third after UWV, but, as others have said, will likely be the new favorite because of its non-consumable explosive status.

Buy in is based on how many of the required weapons you already own. I am sure you got them from a buy-in for another job somewhere.

As far as the item images? They have so many weapons now I don't blame them for recycling them. Nobody gets the weapons for the imagery anyway.

erik
07-21-2012, 12:28 PM
must have similar buy in to uwv or m4 because it only cost me a few M and I never tried to complete later maps. Clearly worth it regardless of the cost. Do not delay, or save a draft of your upcoming whine post ;)

2 really good items in this batch. 1 clearly superior. Keep your focus of energy friends and GL.

12.5 non-consumable. That makes it a bigger deal.

I bought 500 lower levels defensive explosives too see how Land Mines might work for me, and they were all gone in 5 days, gone by people who could beat me even with the Land Mine stat boost.

That makes this a bigger deal for me.

Seems like swingle and btw's drop rate is extraordinary high.

Im sure someone confirmed the drop rate to be %30, which means you should see an average of 2-3 a day as you only get 4320 energy a day meaning 8.34 chances a day (not including lvl up refils) Ive used every ounce of energy since the introduction of it for 25 so far (that would meet the 30% drop rate). Goodfella would mean more like 3per day on average. Do you both have the devils weapon also?

Wait until the current event is over to try farming. Horrible drops rates usually happen during events.

I think I got 2 today.. As soon as last event was over I had like 10 of them in less then a day and then they did stop dropping that often as well

Ok this is ridiculous...I've been trying to farm the Last Call for the past few days and after blowing through probably 60,000+ energy, I've gotten ONE....ONE!

Simple solution:

Farm items during non-events and complete maps during events. Don't ask me what to do after you have completed all the maps :p

Takes a couple o years? To complete all maps to lvl5. Even tho it seems drop rate deceeases durig events (could be a server problem as the .3 doesnt change?) Id still rather farm the loot of choice as map goals doesnt really do anything for your stats.

86 last calls and counting. slow going this week for sure. I'm getting one or two a day, and it takes every ounce of energy I get to pull it off. Hoping it picks back up when the event ends. :-)

Since the beginning of the last event (that ended), the drop rate for TLC feels more like 0.03, not 0.3... I even tried CC HD & still no drops... stuck with 41. It was great while it lasted.

Nooooo!!!! I've been leveling like a champ over the past week trying to unlock that map. I'm level 143 now and could smell the last calls. Say it ain't so!

It was great while it lasted.Drop rates lower during events. Game data doesn't indicate this, but everyone seems to experience it. Since crates/boxes have their own drop rates that are based on the energy required for a given job it would seem they should be independent.

Given that info my feeling is: (A) item drop rates are hard coded to lower during events or (B) a bug decreases drop rates for weapon loot when crate/box loot is available to drop. Possibly some interdependency in the code that tricks the game into using the weapon drop rate as a cumulative rate (or percentage thereof) for both weapons and crates. Crates probably win out on this and item drops decrease accordingly.

Anyway, that's a theory.

look @ the advertised drop rate it got nerfed from 30% to 14.99999999% in the last two days.

edit.. my guess is that it was a mistake as the drop rate for the explosive the "convincer" 18\4 that you get @ nightlife district had a lower drop rate than the TLC and that didnt make sense...

item drop rates have been about 1\4 of normal during events since the diamond sig event... dozens of threads from that time period about it.....

Still .3 for data set 20120726_0

Cool, i read your last post also and agree that there could be a bug during events with the additional item dropping but they obviously don't share the same drop % as you can get both, but based on the amount of bugs in this game it would make sence there is a bug simewhere down the line, which isnt good as there is an event going on most the time.

Drop rate does not seem to have increased since the end of the event. Only received one today. Up to 63.

Ok here's the deal.

There are 8 loot locations that got changed...all in the Cartel Compound.

Cut Brakes (aka non-stretch limo) (Last Call) dropped from .3 drop to .15 :(
Take out Guard (Desperado) dropped from .22 to .2
Find Records (Street Envy) dropped from .4 to .2
Hack Computer (Skate Gear) dropped from .44 to .3
Dismantle (Last Call) dropped from .35 to .25
Burn Down (Steel Fists) dropped from .45 to .35
Terminate (Street Envy) dropped from .43 to .23
Execute (Desperado) dropped from .4 to .3

Not suprise that they changed the drop rate. I think this will end my farming in TLC because the 0.15 drop rate is just too low.

It is funny that the dev team has time to change the drop rate and locations, but they don't have time to fix the game.
