A brief history of crime city

[Ares2]

Ahhh, back in the day. I recently re downloaded crime city on my ipod and to my surprise, my old accoult was on it. Lets just say gone are the days of a lvl 50 with 9k attack calling himself strong...

Everything changed with the M4 nerf. It was the beginning of a whole new deal.

This forum was also filled with game play discussion and strategy, instead of syndicate smack talk. Since there is little strategy left, I suppose that is fair.

I wish OP (or someone) would expand a bit on the topic of consumable explosives, buying weapons with RP, etc. I'm a FNG, and really appreciate the read. I know absolutely NOTHING about the strategy of explosives, consumables, and buying objects with RP.

good read, been here long before events, consumable explosives and anything other than level up to get that casino. LOL at the guys saying about back in the day regarding LTB's, they are so new it isn't funny.

60K stats were a dream to most players and now I have individual weapons worth nearly 200k.

The strategy now is buy gold.. End

They were used to up your strength quick, but as the name implies when attacked they disappear slowly, use to be able to watch people's stats fall as you pounded them in war. They are useless now, same with rp items the two were pretty strong items back then. Strategy was great, you could level slow and if done right almost no one could touch you, now it is just buy your way to stronger rivals

The first bit of steroids were the consumable big stat triple digit explosives. The turkey, snowball etc
A little guy got the taste of the big leagues if only for a few days lol

I completely forgot about the turkeys and snowballs!! At 500 Atk/def, we went crazy trying to acquire them. Short 2-3 stat boost that tripled or quadrupled your stats.

You also forgot to mention the first LTQ... The Hit list. Each level alternated between attacking NPC Characters and robbing specific building from others in the game. Very tough to complete, but i was able to complete it and Gree had me hooked....

Yep, the game was fantastic in 20011/2012. Funzio was on top. It was about building iph/stats so you wouldn't get pummeled. Now it's all about the gold demand. After spending a few hundred and joining the crappy gold program I realized that Gree has taken a lot from the game. Needless to say I open CC 3x per day. I open coc and dead trigger 2 a lot more.

Lol typo - we never lived in 20011

What happened to Payam??

[Max Power]

There was a time when we didnt even have explosives.

I think the rivals list change deserves a spot of its own in the history since it effectively nerfed the entire need/desire/game behind increasing your stats.

Another instance proving the death of strategy. . .

And camping at level 160 to avoid the shark tank.
