Awesome to see a comp like this and Happy birthday to CC. I actually downloaded the app 1 year ago yesterday.

Do you ladies and gentleman think we'll see leaderboards on the forum or in-game for this event? Also curious to how jobs completed will play out.

Can I rent some space in it? I have some extra lint that I need to store somewhere.

On the "cash collected from buildings", this competition would start on the day I begin upgrading my 2nd NC to level 6... Looks like I miss out on 4 days worth of collections from that building. Crap!

Euchred
08-24-2012, 12:27 PM
I want to say it's jobs completed from your stats page because some people don't have many story goals left.

@ BOS The first thing that jumped into my head when I saw this was I guess I won't be upgrading a nightclub

Event confusion already so if it is jobs completed does everybody just keep doing map 1 for the least energy rince and repeat?

It would probably make sense to wait for the events to actually appear before we start speculating. It might be explained there.

I would if it wasn't 1000gb to finish... 10% quicker upgrade times are not worth that "investment" to me!

I started my upgrade no less than 4 hours ago!!!! Congrats to me :p

I doubt it will be explained. I am guessing exactly what we see on the announcement page is what we get in game. Plus it is Friday afternoon and I am killing time before I head off for the weekend :-)

It won't be... and don't bother support with questions, they won't answer either. What CCMark posted in the Announcement Sub-forum is all you're gonna get.

Well, I doubt that these new ones will start before the end of the epic boss event.

In the announcement it says that it starts today and goes to september 2nd.

That's 10 days including today for anyone who doesn't want to pull out a calender.

Too bad, I'm interested in the "most attacks on different players". Does that mean we should only hit a rival once, instead of the usual 10? Or did he means the most attacks on "other" players?

Edit: I see Rhino already made a thread with the same question.

It says "most quests" completed so I am guessing this is a nice little carrot for new players with low energy quests. For all the higher level players that never did map quests, here is your chance to get rewarded for avoiding all the quests.

lol! I think they do this on purpose!

Remember that event to get the highest IPH...? The way they worded it, nobody could tell if it meant collected, the IPH stat, moneys gotten per hour including robberies, or an increase in IPH.

I pm'ed CCMark &/or LFizz, emailed support, asked on the forum, and NEVER got an answer. It would have been so easy for one of them to tell us it was straight stat, right off the profile, but noooooooo.... They let everyone squirm & wonder until the end. Really cute of them... still a little bitter with the continued ambiguity of their transparent "announcements."
(not so thrilled today, sorry for my general p!ssiness.)

But hey... TGIF!!!!

I want to be the first to congratulate Euchred, AppleMacGuy, Synergy, and probably 22 other people who make over 2.5 IPH on winning collecting from your building category. Don't miss your collection times and you should be all set. You probably don't want to do any major upgrades to the large incomce producers either. Job well done for having a great economy!

08-24-2012, 01:01 PM
pftt another week without sleep >.< , top 25 ? so basically 5 spots taken from all cause of gold refills, top 20 left

80 happy people , ok sounds about ok !

Event is good , just not good for free players .

Vile Lynn
08-24-2012, 01:02 PM
Nothing against Android players, but why do they have us in a sub-forum together?
It is very confusing if we're not playing the same game with the same events, etc...

I assume it all players if you read announcement it say


In celebration of a hugely successful year and loyal fan base, GREE will kick off a weeklong crime spree from August 24 through September 2. During that week, every player who logs into the Crime City will receive a Close Combat MG

That is it !

Sadly its back to that cliche. No fun for free players. Even for moderate gold spenders like me.

They should have made it top 100 at least. I guess 1 vault might give you a slim chance to get to top 25 but even doubt that.


I already know who's gonna win fight competition :)

1 vault is nothing anymore , sorry Denz1 you are talking about top 25 !
That means across the board people including android events statistic , will spent more then 5 -10 vaults of there reserve alone !

A thought on the collection award: Does one have to bank their collections in order for the amount to be recorded? Because I no bank, as do several other high IPH players. How else could GREE track this information?

Thoughts?

Well i assume it has user log when money is collected otherwise when you collect money and come back 10 minutes later money balance should stay the same. otherwise you money symbol on the building you have already collected from

I kind of agree with Bala or else they would also have to contend with people who have the Emerald Burner against others who don't but that being said you bring up a good point that I highly doubt we will get an answer to. Another factor would definitely making all 4 Nightclub collection times and not skipping the one for a full 8 hour sleep.

Just went back and looked at the category, it's called "The Banker"... I have a suspicion that the top 25 IPH's will be rewarded, like the last Big Earners award. I may be wrong though.

What's is not right with this event is that every CC player was anxiously anticipating it for long time and it got screwed up in a jig.
Make it 250 and almost everybody will have fun and enjoy it. Before that.. I'll just collect and upgrade.

Exactly. It says most money collected, not most money banked. All you're going to get out of unbanking and rebanking is loosing money. Unless as stated above, you know something we don't.

I am guessing that with 2 mil + per hour I have a pretty good chance at the top 25. It's about all high income earners get these days anyways. Thanks for the Cobra, Gree!

I am also guessing the 10% upgrade time stacks to the net of my 25% faster upgrade time from before. Still a good get.

"Crime City will continue to keep players enthralled in this criminal saga by introducing lots of new features and content including new jobs, criminal titles, and unlawful goals to continuously enhance players’ gameplay experiences. "

Anyone else think criminal titles sounds similar to your "ranking" in MW?

ok... questions
1. we have to login every day for a week to get the Close Combat MG?
2. is there going to be a leaderboard to show our progress?
3. "Blood Thirsty - Most successful attacks on different players"
when it says on different players what does that mean? if i attack 10 times to the same players it counts only 1 or 10?
if i attack him again after 2 hours it does not count?

4. o Gettin' it Done - Most quests completed
it says most quests ... it means goals from the goal list such thug lifes or any and only missions from the map
5. o The Banker – Most cash collected from buildings
it means your buildings or it includes money from robbing

6. is it top 25 players no matter the level?
if it is so, low level players have no chance to get any of those gifts
and only big spenders will have a chance so i won't bother at all

if gree wants to make a gift to players there should be tiers and at least top 250
now seems that gree is just try to make some more money

6. is it top 25 players no matter the level?
if it is so, low level players have no chance to get any of those gifts
and only big spenders will have a chance so i won't bother at all

if gree wants to make a gift to players there should be tiers and at least top 250
now seems that gree is just try to make some more money
I agree. I often don't spend much time on events (Usually using free) because I have no chance of competing with higher levels and gold spenders.

ok... questions
1. we have to login every day for a week to get the Close Combat MG?
2. is there going to be a leaderboard to show our progress?
3. "Blood Thirsty - Most successful attacks on different players"
when it says on different players what does that mean? if i attack 10 times to the same players it counts only 1 or 10?
if i attack him again after 2 hours it does not count?

4. o Gettin' it Done - Most quests completed
it says most quests ... it means goals from the goal list such thug lifes or any and only missions from the map
5. o The Banker – Most cash collected from buildings
it means your buildings or it includes money from robbing

6. is it top 25 players no matter the level?

I've asked CC Mark to clarify 2 questions
1) This isn't PvP but more victim count, most succesful attacks on...Different players!
2) Map Quest, is this Jobs or just yellow arrow completions through the maps.
Vile Lynn, totally agree, has this actually begun yet????

Euchred

Hi Plux! :cool: It has to have already started... other players have the pop-up & I would assume they have the gun, too.

It really doesn't matter to me about the event, but I do want the gun or 500 of them now for my anguish! lol! JK, all these new scratcher, boss, & event guns are making my M4's worthless & all the months of farming them pointless... Joy.

I hope CCMark PMs you back with a good & informative answer.

08-25-2012, 05:20 PM
I'm about half a day behind, but it takes forever to do one PvP per rival, robbing is the same, so instead I'm supplementing my $1.3bn in the bank with large individual rob opportunities where it's safe. My $50m a day should get me the banked collection top 25 but as Eucred says, the wording implies a) Most victims, not PvP totals as 1 rival = 1 Pt and Map Quests, is this a new feature? Jobs (green arrows) yellow arrow map quests maybe? I'm sure of the banking gun, but the others..... it's putting me off the event this doubt. No answer yet but I asked him to clarify to the forum not me.

I've gotten the popup announcement showing the 4 challenges 2x on my android today. Never got the first popup screen showing the free gun (& it's not in my inventory either). Complete no show for my iPad - no screens, no gun, nothing.

When you think about it, this really is an apt beginning to celebrating a "hugely successful year." Here's to hoping they stop taking their "loyal fan base" for granted during their second year.

most fights and most robberies can be done by all levels. stam comes back at the same rate for everyone with minor exceptions of bonus weapons and goodfella but still can be accomplished(with gold)

Exactly. And at lower levels, you can level up much easier, which means free stamina refills.

Not simply HL players, top 25 prizes only for big spenders. No way you can win without paying.

Why would they celebrate the anniversary any diffrent from the rest of the year.

Another way to scam as much gold as possible
Incomplete information
And inconsistent between players ie start date

Really if we were expecting anything diffrent we are the fools.

Sooooo I was just sloothing aroung the announcement post and at the bottom it says this:

"Crime City will continue to keep players enthralled in this criminal saga by introducing lots of new features and content including new jobs, criminal titles, and unlawful goals to continuously enhance players’ gameplay experiences. "

Anyone else think criminal titles sounds similar to your "ranking" in MW?

Yes i think you're right and i hope this gets introduced as soon as possible


Ya i got the pop up with the top 25 items in it but not the pop up with the gun that everybody gets.


I got the event popup but still no sign of the Close Combat MG.


Good luck Plux!

I think you have to login everyday during the event to receive the gun at the end of it.

I wish they had leaderboards for this event.

Has anyone thought that where it says "Most successful attacks on DIFFERENT players" means everyone could end up with very similar figures come the end of the event.

If it means the top 25 players who have attacked the most "different" players wins the prize then we could all end up with similar figures. There won't be someone who wins by a mile.

My reason for thinking this is that i've been constantly attacking people since the event started and i'm only seeing people who i've already attacked. Therefore i've attacked every different person on my rivals list and will only see a couple of floaters who level up over the next couple of days.

This means the players with the highest number of rivals in their bracket has the advantage.

Just a thought and i've attacked around 400 different people so far.

08-26-2012, 10:59 AM
I don't think they care about how many players at same position, they may have 100 or 500 players at 25th position, they just select random or sort by player name or by gold purchased, anyway we never have event data so who know ?

Just like last name that vehicle contest, at the end of event they post a list of 10 names these are 10 winners. I just like "What ? How ? "

Is everybody going to get some kind of anniversary present? If not, seems kind of sad and mean. How many people make more than 500K per hour? It's the only thing worth trying for in my case.

I always feel like if they do an award for most kills, there should be one for least killed. It should be done as a percentage of attempts over successes.

Vile Lynn
08-26-2012, 01:17 PM
In the last IPH event, they said "IPH rate" not IPH stat, so I wouldn't assume anything with the way they word these event directions... using the word "rate," to me, did not mean "stat off the profile," but it did to Funzio. I even asked support to clarify & never got a clear answer before the event ending. All they said was they would post more info on the forum, but they never did.

Yeah, I know, it probably does mean different players, but do they really mean it that way?

Always enjoy your comments Billionaire.

Can someone start a thread where we can list our number of attacks on different people for the Anniversary Event. If we can't get an official leader board, perhaps this will help... (I do not have permission to start a thread lol)

Always good to see so many familiar names. Good luck to all!
