We are proud to announce that the new Street Assault event is about to hit Crime City and have prepared some information for you.



How does Street Assault work?



Street Assault pits your syndicate against two rival syndicates in an intense war to control the street map. Each syndicate member deploys crew units of varying power to Nodes on a map that represent strategic locations of the area.

The ultimate goal - the syndicate with the most points at the end of the war wins.

All syndicate members are able to declare war. After declaring war, your syndicate is matched against two other syndicates of similar strength in a battle to conquer or defend the map Nodes.

The color of your syndicate during a war will be red, green or blue and is subject to change for each war.

Each war runs for 60 minutes. If war is not declared or if your syndicate is not matched before the last 60 minutes of the event, a war will not start.

Each Street Assault event features four Street Assault-specific crew units that can be deployed on the map's Nodes.



These crew units can be earned in other events or may be purchased for cash and gold on the Street Assault map screen during a war.



The purchased crew units do not have attack or defense stats, as they are only used for Street Assault. Crew units have an exclusive "power" stat that is used during Street Assault.

While crew purchased with in-game cash will change from event to event, crew purchased with gold will not change. We do not offer refunds for crew purchased with gold, as they can be used in future events.

What are Deploy Points?



Deploy Points equal to the power of each deployed unit are added to both the Personal and Syndicate Deploy Point scoreboards. These points are earned regardless of the win/loss status of any nodes, and the scoreboards are incremented upon deploy.

What are Node Control Points?



The Node Control Point value of each node on the playfield is increased by the power value of each crew unit deployed by all players to that node.

Node Control Points are earned by the syndicate that deployed the highest amount of power (Deploy Points) to each node at the end of each war. These points are awarded to syndicates (not individual players) and are scored at the end of the war.

What are Bonus Deploy Points?



When a syndicate reaches a pre-determined milestone of total deployed power during a given war, that syndicate will activate a bonus. Once the bonus is activated, the points in both the Personal and Syndicate Deploy Point scoreboards are increased by the power value of the deployed unit multiplied by the bonus percentage.

How does scoring work?



At the end of the war, Node Control Points for each node are awarded to the syndicate that deployed the largest amount of power to that node. Node Control Points and Syndicate Deploy Points are added to create the Total Points for each syndicate and determine the first, second, and third place finishers in the war. In the case of a tie, the tying syndicates share the lower finishing place.

Are syndicates locked during the event?

You cannot change syndicates during the Street Assault event. You can join a syndicate if you are not in one at the start of the event. You can leave a syndicate if you are already part of one, but if you leave your syndicate during the event, you will not be able to join another. You cannot be removed from a syndicate by its leader during this event.

How does the rewarding work?

Street Assault event prizes are given for syndicates placing first, second, or third in each 60 minute war, and one final prize is given for your syndicate's placement on the leaderboard. Rewards are determined by how many points you earned during that war, and are not part of a Tier System. You will not receive better rewards for defeating higher ranked or stronger syndicates.

Do I have to participate in this event?

No, this event is entirely opt-in, similar to Raid Boss and Battle for Empire City. However, in order to receive event rewards, it is necessary to actively participate.

How does the match-making work between syndicates?

Matchmaking between syndicates in Street Assault is similar to the matchmaking in Battle for Empire City. The system looks at the overall strength of your syndicate; the sum of your syndicate's power will be compared to the sum of the other syndicates' power when looking for potential match-ups. As time goes on without a match, the parameters will relax slightly.
