Thousands of Mafia?!?

[frenda]

I'm seeing this trend more and more, or maybe just finally noticing it, but people with hundred or thousands of mafia members. You do realize you can only "use" 5 mafia per level, right? And unless you have guns, melee, armor, and vehicles for each of them, they're mostly useless. And yes, explosives are expensive and get used up, so you don't need them for all, but they help some. And lastly, having a lot of mafia makes you show up in people's rival list with lots more atk and def than you have. Sorry, rant over.

For some people, the number of mafia is like a whole separate mini-game within the game.

As in "Oh yeah? Well your economy might be better but I got more mafia!"

[frenda]

Yeah, like it's a popularity contest. I wonder if they realize that by doing so they're exposing themselves to bigger fish who will just whoop up on them? I guess not. More easy pickings for us, Swifty.

Yup, it's the Face Book Strategy. lol

Saw some guy brab in a comment on some hottie's wall that he had 7330 mafia members. I couldn't stop laughing. I bet she's impressed by that until she sees his won/loss stats. LOL.

Yeah, seen the same type of thing, it is hilarious and kinda sad all at once.

This is an area that I have been musing about.... At some point in time I think Funzio may increase the numbers that's you can take into battle.

Even for high levels this means previously redundant weapons will come back into play.

Yay for Steyr AUGs, Nail Bats and Wrestler Masks

So I've been thinking of growing my mob size and holding it about the 990 mark, just in case this change comes along.

Anyone else got any thoughts on the possibility of a 'useable mob size' increase?

[Ram]

I have almost 7k mafia members! Since i have 500 members i never added anynody

[frenda]

Burn, I figure if they change it, then I'll add more. They're useless unless you can actually use them in your stats. I figure I can socialize here on the Forum, but keep my Mafia list to something meaningful.

I used to keep my mob right at 500 but have been hoping for the same thing and I have been selectively adding just in case. I probably wont go over 750 though. Just a random goal.

Heh. For other players, hey, the more mafia for them the merrier. I add mafia one at a time, after I can afford to outfit them with a million bucks of stuff representing the best att/def money can buy for guns, melee, armor, and cars.

Once you're in the big shark-tank, I don't think it matters anymore. I was talking only about the lower level players.

I think that's a wise strategy. I've been using the spreadsheet to show me where I'm weakest, that has helped tremendously.

I know, Burn and I were talkin about being prepared just in case they raise the usable mob.
Dont wanna get caught flatfooted.

I will stay far away from 1000 though, I dont want the 1000 mob glitch.

Swifty can tell you about that if you dont know.

[frenda]

Yeah, don't know anything about the 1000 mob glitch. I'm trying to grow steadily so I don't become sharkfood as soon as I hit 90.
