Update Regarding Accomplices

[Nighteg]

You want to know the definition of insanity? Introducing accomplices, having accomplices fail miserably, then reintroducing them. Just let them die.

And no, I'm not going to post in the announcement forum. This isn't an announcement, it's a discussion.

Make them a mini game somehow!

I want to watch one of my Paul Ringo Weis drive a car!

[polly]

Just add their stats without separating them in the math algorithm.

I'll move it over to the appropriate thread then.

Turn each accomplice into a -10% HP regen mod.

1 accomplice ----> + 1,000,000 att/def stats

[Nighteg]

I don't like atk/def stats.

Accomplices should be used to heal me faster during wars, bosseES, and street assault, or they could be used to turn unused items into something relevant, like modifiers of various sorts.

I have a newer account with fewer than 1200 items. My oldest account has something close to 60,000 items. Regardless of the device on which I try to open either account, the old one takes nearly a full minute (if not longer) to load while the new one takes about 5-10 seconds.

Doing something to rid the servers of what I can only imagine must be literally billions of unused items might be something Gree should explore. It could easily result in less load time, less lag, possibly lower data charges for those using their cellular data, etc.

If you ever played War of Nations, accomplices should be just like commanders in that game. Accomplices could be merged and fused with the same type and name to grow in atk/def stats. Continue to merge/fuse accomplices will in turn add even more depth to the playing field. Make it happen, Gree...so I can say, "I KNEW IT!"

Attention Crime Lords!


Exciting update: Beginning with the Duel for the Deuces Battle for Empire City, Accomplices will no longer factor into battle calculations. Though all Accomplices you've recruited will still remain in your inventory, battle calculations will be calculated using only Mafia Stats. We hope you enjoy the classic Battle for Empire City and build the strongest Mafia to dominate and defeat your enemies! More details to come on how Accomplices will be used to enhance your Mafia.

...been almost a month.

How about some "more details"?

How about you don't.

Excellent point. Why not allow us to sell back unused weapons to the equipment store for 1/10 original value at least? Heck, I would be happy just having a delete button so I could remove them from my inventory.

Trading unused items in has been available in MW for a while. Human nature being what it is, a lot of people have spent billions in game cash buying store items and then trading them in to get valor points (respect in this game)

[wawoftam]

Can one assume that all those that got refunds from external outlets have had their accomplices removed? It would only seem fair to those that read OP and are awaiting further news
