Yesterday, I was wondering when more players were going to get the new Fight Module (1). We were told to expect a slow roll out but over 20 days seemed excessive. I will say that Zynga did listen to player feedback and made many improvements during the past 20 days. According to the Official Mafia Wars Blog post titled Icing Just Got Cooler, 90% of players received the new Fight Module last night.
6/20/2011 5:30PM PDT UPDATE: After extensive testing, we're ready to release the new Fighting experience to 90% of you! Any minute now you should see just how cool icing can be. Thank you for your patience and feedback! The remaining 10% should expect to receive it once we confirm that the system remains stable with the majority of players using it.
Those who had it and got rolled back last night should find they have it back (1). Cerulean Master addresses this issue on this Get Satisfaction thread.
If you don't have the new Fight Module or don't like it, please make sure you read the post Eike from Team Spockholm wrote about it here. Please let us know on this Wall Post which style of fighting you prefer.
OLD
NEW
Regardless if you like the new Fight Module or not, one thing we all will appreciate about it is the Secret Stash feature isn't present. You will be happy to find your wall isn't cluttered with the ridiculous Secret Stash posts that never work. Lets hope they don't try to incorporate that feature into the new Fight Module!

hate the new fight screen. I don't find it easier to use. could care less about secret stash since many people didn't bother to click to send it since they knew the feature wouldn't result in a stash award half the time anyway...
ReplyDeletewhat's irking me right now is the apparent disappearance of the "cool down" that was supposed to take effect once health was restored. That grace period seems to have vanished. My last 4 runs of attacks were interrupted immediately by incoming attacks when in 'theory' I was still in the cool down for just healing.
Everything zynga touches is wrought with problems. I can't begin to ever think, they'll get it right.
how are we supposed to post an ice with the new fight module? i don't see any Share button
ReplyDeletecooldown? what cooldown? there never has been any 'cooldown'. If you heal, you can immediately get attacked. Join some clan wars or mock wars and you'll see there is no 'cooldown'.
ReplyDeleteI for one won't miss not having a "share" button cluttering up my page! really could care less if you iced someone, I hope they never "fix" that one.
ReplyDeleteIMHO I love the revenge for a stolen ice feature, if you can beat the icer you can usually ice him since he is not on the fight list and being attacked by dozens of people.
