Crime City Quickie Questions

dead weight loss is a loss to society as a whole, in the case of someone robbing you after you have banked your money... they are benefiting by taking your money, so it is not dead weight loss. dead weight loss would be the 10% banking fee because no one benefits from that.

I thought of another couple of questions.

5. What are your thoughts on the buildings the game tells you to buy (i.e. the ones it makes a "goal" for you to build)? A lot of them seem like bad investments (e.g. Sports Bar) that aren't worth the reward the game gives you for doing so. The one I'm currently on is Flower Shop, which just seems like a building that will take forever to get your initial investment back. The only reason I would consider building it is perhaps the buildings it asks you to build later on give nicer rewards, and you can't get those without the bad buildings first.

6. Which reminds me, what happens when you have already completed a goal before it's presented to you? I don't know what it asks you to build after flower shop, but what if I already built that building? Or the attack/defense goals. I have a much, much higher defense than offense, and it used to alternate between attack/defense stat goals, but now I only get attack stat goals (presumably because I've already satisfied the next defense goal?) What happens then? Do I not get the rewards for doing so? Or does it award me the prize(s) without notification?

5. Well it's up to you but it get annoying seeing that goal every time you see goal in you list after 2-3 month you will get fed up of seeing of and eventually build it. If you don't even use goal list it's better . The best way is to play the game you want not the game the programmers want you to play.

6. You get the rewards as soon as you complete regardless of when you actually did it. if suddenly you notice extra cash you know where it came from.

Question regarding battle events.

Do you get anything extra for winning the battle?

If not, why bother with strong hideouts? Is it only to keep other competitors overall points down in the game?

It would seem only focusing on bonuses for destroying their hide and increasing your points would be money better spent.

I hope I'm wrong on this as I would prefer extra incentive to win, not just accumulate points.

Thanks for all the great info shared here.

I have few questions ! I just started playing this game for 2-3 days, and I am afraid my questions might sound noob/ dumb to you guys.

1) Is there any good guide for beginner? (I saw The "Best of the Best" Guides! thread, but some say those are out of date)

2) what is the best level to start camping? Is there any good guide for camping?

3) best way to goes up atk/ def stats without spending any gold (RL money) adding more Mafia & Joining
Syndicate ? any other ways available?

Cheer!

[Bala82]

Best of the best has all the information EVEN IF IT'S OUT OF DATE .

1) To be honest you need decided what you want out of the game.

2) Use this This guide for camping

3) Boss event and saving your respect but joining a syndicate with all defence bonuses purchased also helps.

I am thinking of replacing some of my low money building ( pizza and tattoo) with defence building ?

Good or bad idea ?

[the_brein]

I think you're better off buying decorations! Although your stats appear to increase with def buildings, mofos still attack me with impunity. I think a better approach, one that I've taken, is to have buildings on a schedule. Have buildings that payout at certain intervals where you know you can check in and collect. This way there is nothing to rob.

[Bala82]

Most of my buildings are on schedule but it always when i sleep that causes the problem

I say go with the defense buildings. You really don't make much with those low money buildings. If you happen to have consumable explosives, they'll just might set off when getting robbed and you'll end up losing money instead of making money.

[Senisga]

Anyone knows if we have explosives on the new maps and what their stats?

What's the difference between henchmen and non-henchmen?

I have 150k att and 162k Defense. Why I am losing fights against players with Stats 147k att and 135k defense?

[bald zeemer]

There is some random variation, so if you're losing about 10% that's more or less normal. If they're attacking you and you lose consistently it's because you've wasted time upgrading defense buildings, and your defense is not really 162k.

[wepox]

Has any one found out what the att and deff does in your stats when you lvl up
