The bad news about Brazil is that it's going to take a lot of energy to fully master. Here are the job costs for the Ruby Levels of each District. The good news here is that the lowest mastery for any job is 6% and if you use the Crew bonuses, it won't be as bad as it seems. It's not going to be easy. Tomorrow I will go over all the properties and loot items of Brazil.

WTF? 756 energy to do a job ONCE?
ReplyDeleteAre they for effing real?
756 enrgy to do a job? ...massive
ReplyDeleteI see that with energy costs like this that Brazil is a place for the big boys to playwhile the rest of us struggle thru it.
ReplyDeletethis will be a waste of most of our times.
ReplyDeleteholy hell. i'm already struggling to get through the first level due to lack of funds.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Zynga is trying to drive people to spending real cash to move along through Brazil.
ReplyDelete'Dislike'
ReplyDeleteI'm not going to waste my time or money
ReplyDeleteFor some reason on Bronze level the same job costs me 18 energy and only 3 energy for my son. Any idea why the discrepancy? Level or total energy maybe?
ReplyDeleteI noticed that each job has an "ask" next to it. I suppose you could plod along asking your mafia to help you. It doesn't cost them anything but a click and benefits you greatly. I've done 100% of some social jobs in Las Vegas by asking for help. An active mafia is a big plus.
ReplyDeleteWe just spend a little more time on it.
ReplyDeleteWhere is your problem - we have plenty of time for Social Gaming?
MW-Team build Brazil in month - we don't have to finish it in days.
Cool down and do your jobs. I like it this way, Zynga !!
Thought there was going to be properties that produced stamina and energy? Also, I will have to utilize the 18 hrs of double consumable drops and double exp from my crew members wisely I guess.
ReplyDeleteThe energy spent in 1 go might be more, but I think adding the crew will provide double mastery.
ReplyDeleteinsane
ReplyDeleteARE THEY OUT OF THERE FUCKING MINDS?????
ReplyDeleteWell Maybe It's A Good Thing Thatr This Is Just The BETA Version ....... Well It Looks Like Ecveryone Has Got Their Work Cut Out To Work Out The Issues and Bugs ....... Let's Not Make Energy An Issue In BRAZIL .....
ReplyDeleteIf the loot per job done is 1:1 or 1:2 it won't be that bad, but I doubt it will be like that. Looks like I'll be keeping my energy account at bronze.
ReplyDeleteThis is fine. Brazil is not meant for the weak -- it's meant for us big boys. It's EXACTLY like Atlantic City. It's clear that Zynga upped the energy costs to keep the e-hoes from burning through the entire destination in one night with a couple energy packs and FC refills.
ReplyDeleteRelax. If Brazil is too hard, go finish Italy and Vegas. Otherwise shut up and add some energy.
we dont have to finish brazil in one day :)
ReplyDeleteand we can ask for help in any job.
even it costs 756 energy but it pays 1500 exp.,
so its the same but with less clicking ..
change is good ..
its just a game so try to enjoy ;)
This is ruby difficulty... and this player already got to the end of it on day one. I think the High costs might be justified if you look it that way. There are 3 other mastery levels before this, if the fun part of the game for you is unlocking new stuff, just unlock bronze tier. Ruby is a challenge for the hard core.
ReplyDeletewhat about this pac jen that u said was going to make the game better????????? i think your group screwed it all up :( italy was ok. then you and your friends had a meeting with zynga and this is the result????? WTF thanks alot for nothing
ReplyDeletemaybe its player based, since you used an energy account perhaps it asks you for more ?
ReplyDeleteeven if you have 30k energy, wouldnt this take still more than a day ? how you even did it?
ReplyDeleteFrom what I have seen its kinda like the old days of starting out in NY, remember it used to be hard!! Whilst i believe that most of what Zynga does seems to suck, actually this feels like a bit of the old honest gameplay. If it is another sick attempt to suck oodlesof cash out of us then I guess we have a choice to play or walk away
ReplyDeleteIt looks like the cost of each mission might vary. I think it might be related to the amount of energy you have.
ReplyDeleteCost for "Meet a Contact at Mosqueiro" with 0 stars for a:
lvl 714 with 1275 energy was 72,
lvl 514 with 3388 energy was 81,
lvl 78 with 638 energy the cost was 8.
anyone else mind posting lvl of their char, energy they have, and cost of this mission?
I was wondering for doing job costing 756 energy there is reward !!!1,46k!!! experience. My question is, is 1k equal to 1024 or it is only 1000. Does someone knows?
ReplyDeleteim ok that barzil is set the way it is . character developement is one of the games skills . its good that the cities have variety . and brazil seems to be set up to keep the big players busy . its a high security warzone so it stands to reason it would be expensive and dangerous .
ReplyDeleteall brazil does is seperate the monsters from normal fish and that should reduce some of the games bullying and unnecessary drama .
its like any roleplaying game the next level may have great loot but the danger's are higher .
besides its still a beta of a beta . so dont think it wont be tweaked if it proves unfair.
ReplyDeleteCost for "Meet a Contact at Mosqueiro" with 0 stars for a:
ReplyDeletelvl 693 with 2756 energy was 63,
Cost of "Meet a contact at Mosqueiro" for Level 1023 with 2472 energy was 63 & gave 81 experience (bronze level)
ReplyDeleteAre you kiddin me?!?!?! Hope they reduce it...!
ReplyDeleteI was around level 1600 with 10000 energy, and I managed to complete Brazil, by myself up to Ruby, in just over 2weeks, so it isnt that hard
