Cam I was talking about the Hardcore Hitman goals, the kind that appears each time you level ("Defeat X opponents at Level Y or higher").

The Thug Life goals ("Defeat X rivals with at least Y/500 mafia") go up to Thug Life 500.

I'm at Thug Life 279 right now and man do those take forever. If you're at 223 then you still have to win over 40,000 more fights to get to 500.
(To calculate: Since the number of fights required increases by one every 3 fights, calculate the 'Gaussian Sum' or 'Triangular Number' between the number you have to win for your current goal, 105 at TL223, and the last goal, 197 at TL500, then multiply by 3.)

What are good stats for a level 29 player with only 20 mafia?

Ask someone at level 29.

i am a newbie but i like this game and have all sorts of question.

first of all, how do LTQ work? im lvl 26, and seem to have levelled up too fast, should i participate in them or camp for a while. im in a syndicate so i feel camping and not donating will get me kicked out...

Camping is a dead strategy. Just be sure to use your level ups effectively because your energy/stamina/health all refill each time.

ok good to know thanks for the answer.
and how do the LTQ work? do i have to register first or just complete the jobs listed here in order and receive some items at some point?

I hate when people ask "what are good stats for my level?" Why don't you look around your level and find out? The stats that were good for a level 29 when I was 29 are obviously not even comparable thanks to all the new events, stat inflation, etc. Find someone on level 29 (or some sort of camper account) and ask them. Or just take a look around your level-- how many people can you attack, how many people can attack you? If you close your eyes and blind attack someone off your rival's list, what are your odds of winning?

ooooohhh so thats what the 78M building thing is... alright
thanks for your time ill build my IPH a little more before trying those haha

Don't listen to Dippy. If your goal is to be strong for your level, don't do the LTQs. The LTQs are meant for high level players, with lots of energy and little concern for XP costs. They aren't meant for people at level 26 or whatever. I wouldn't even think about bothering with LTQs until you're at least level 100, when boss events become irrelevant for 95% of players. Read this guide instead: http://www.funzio.com/forum/showthre...s-Killer-Guide

really interesting. might be too late for me to follow this guide but ill start trying to follow this.
seems a like a little boring at first but i am tired of being VERY weak for my level and taking a lot of time to finally find someone i MIGHT be able to beat or rob...

If you feel like sitting at level 40 for a year only doing boss events once every month or two, knock yourself out. All the new events benefit high level players and I'd be in a hurry to take part in them.

LTQs for high level players, boss events for low level players, LTBs for high IPH players, case events for everyone. I've never "camped" per se, but there's nothing wrong with going out and robbing low level laundromats for the high RP / low XP ratio while avoiding buildings like Meat Factories or whatever. I could never be a pure camper because it's too boring, but if I'm strong enough to hit people 50-100 levels above me, I don't see what the rush in leveling up is.

Last question for now..

Is buyingthe godfella status for a free player worth it if i have 150 gold from offers? Im tycoon btw so will i get an extra 10% on building income?

If someone attacks you and you win, does that count as a Win for the Street Brawl event?

Goodfella was the first thing I bought with gold, definitely worth it. You're already getting the 10% income bonus, so the Goodfella bonus would speed up your stamina and energy regeneration by 10% each.

No. I started this event two hours late, and my wall was a steady stream of green. Didn't count. Might count for a very, very small amount of Brawl Points, but not as a win for the Street Brawl goals.

I have plenty of space, but when i try to
buy a new money building the game force closes. Defense buildings dont have this problem though. Is this a game fault? I have several.money and defense buildings already and this is the first time i have encountered this problem.

Hey anyone know if points for the brawl follow the player when you move between syndicates?

I believe I read that you can't take your points to another syndicate (probably to prevent people gaming the system, etc) such that even if you were to leave and rejoin the same syndicate you lose those points, but I don't know if you get to keep your individual points for the purposes of the Individual prizes.

What are City Battle bonuses and how do we get them?

Profile > Stats > View Bonuses > City Battle

When clicked on the "City Battle" bonus tab I get message-

"You currently have no items,
Participate in events to earn bonus items."

I'm guessing you need to participate in City Battles to get them. :rolleyes:

But seriously, no idea. Nobody has any yet.

I change the syndicate after the syndicate showdown.
When the syndicate showdown symbol disappeared I waited about 30 minutes to leave my old syndicate and request entry to the new one.
Next time when I logged in, I received a dialog box saying that I did not receive any individual price :mad:
I just saw a question mark!
Some hours before the end of the syndicate showdown I was at least somewhere in the ranking.

My assumption is that I changed the syndicate too early and lost my individual points...

P.S.:
I received a syndicate reward, but do not know whether it was achieved by the previous or the new syndicate as both fell into the same category of rewards...

You didn't get one of these nice pop-ups?

Perhaps I misunderstood what you meant. In my opinion, I would have waited for the prizes to be awarded before I would leave the syndicate... same as the syndicate wars.

How can people at rank 40 reach a Attack and Defense over 70k. I've been camping for a lot, participated in events and i'm still only on 40k att + defense.

Syndicate prizes. They don't even need to fight. Often it's the camper account of someone high level in a top syndicate.

Yes, I saw this pop-up. But my individual ranking did not show a number but a question mark.

I agree that I changed the syndicate too early and should have waited for the pop-up.
But as this was the first syndicate showdown, I did not know how long to wait.
(My assumption that 30 minutes are enough was wrong - at least in my case)

You probably left well before 30 minutes. I remember people in my syndicate's chat and people on the forum freaking out about when the prizes would come, but actually now that I think about it the Individual prizes were awarded instantly, and it was the syndicate prizes that took ~10 minutes. I got my Individual prizes at 12:00pm PST sharp.

How do you deal with a good rob target that you take from regularly, but has started to post on your wall (rather nicely) asking you to stop. Do you give in and lose a good rob target? Or do you talk smack to them? Do you just ignore them and continue pillaging?

How do you deal with the whiner that can't take the heat?

Maybe I need to check my inventory then.
In case I am lucky I might find one of the minor awards.
Actually I did not spend THAT much effort in the syndicate showdon event...

But to do so I need to overcome my current problem which is android related:
My statistics are screwed up and nearly all loot items from the last 3 months do not show up at all in my inventory.

This happened already 3 times to my account and usually get solved once a new data set gets provided. So now I am really looking forward to the new data set for the Mayor Turnball event!
Hopefully I will detect an award from syndicate showdown :confused:

Either ignore them or tell them to raise their stats but either way dont punish yourself for being better than someone

How do you track a player that changed his name? Or do u have search down ur rivals list and try to find him again?

Depends on who they are. As much as I enjoy robbing huge amounts of cash from someone, I wouldn't constantly harass someone for no reason. That said, it's not my fault if they're consistently not collecting on their buildings on time or have a weak defense, and it's not like if I don't rob them, then no one else will. So I would probably avoid going overboard if someone's nice (perhaps just grabbing their biggest earners, NCs, LTBs, etc.), but robbing is part of the game.

However, if someone is a blatant time traveler, then I have no mercy for going to town on their buildings at any hour of the day, no matter how nice they are to me.

I'm having this issue too, like it takes 2-3 seconds to purchase one consumable. Basically I've coped by just tapping the buy button a hundred times while it's frozen, put the phone down, and returned to it in a few minutes when it catches up to itself.
