New stuff!

[Assault and Flattery]

Hey guys,

Here are some new things coming out:

New rival list logic!

The rival list will be populated based primarily on relative strength, but also takes level,IPH,mafia size, and a few other factors into account.


Defense buildings will be improved!

Remember those things? We will soon be scaling them better to match the rise in relative stats that has happened over the past year.


New Scratcher prizes!

We're working on rolling out some new fancy items to scratch at!


Also, if you weren't already in the know, we released expansion levels 31-40 with goals last week. That means your hood can be even bigger!




Please note: Not all of these (with the exception of the expansions) are out yet, but they are all confirmed and will be added to the game!

This is great! Thanks for the update.

Edit: How will the defense buildings work? Will they be given their true defense listed? Or will there be new buildings?

I'm delighted to hear that defence buildings will be made worthwhile; given the wholesale changes in the way the game is now that's long overdue.

Will wait and see how the rivals changes. If the iph factor means the low iph parasites largely disappear from my news, then great. Make them work for it like the old hands had to!

And thank you for posting the news.

All good except for the rivals list "logic".

So, what you're saying with this new rivals list is... No more PvP. Because if you did bring it back, how in the hell are players going to attack people on their rivals list if strength is matched?!

Great news. Plz don't release this massive update before/during battle.

Thank you

Updating defensive buildings? Can you clarify what this entails. If it is increasing the stats drastically on existing buildings this would be extremely unfair. Common knowledge that defensive buildings have served little purpose over the past year+. Many older accounts have deleted obsolete buildings to make room for $ buildings. Most new accounts don't even place them. A huge stat inflation on the existing buildings would render many players strategies useless. And with the limited buildings always going we would never have the opportunity to build or upgrade them.
Introduce new defensive buildings if you have to but the existing ones should remain the same.


I will never understand why players in a game predicated on crime get so bent out if shape when they get robbed. And yes I have been on both asides of the iph fence.

HALLELUJAH!

Any idea when the new scratchers are going to be released?

[Blowin Smoke]

Taking IPH into account is the most horrible, most terrible thing you guys could do to this game. And implementing that will only cause me to not play this game nearly as much as I do. I know most will disagree but I'm not happy with this one bit.

[Pointless]

Cool. I was just improving my IPH...

Thanks for the info A&F!

Great news. Plz don't release this massive update before/during battle.

Monday post-battle would be the earliest we'd look at rolling further changes out.
