On June 1st, a small percentage of Mafia Wars players got the new Fight Module. Zynga made the big announcement on Mafia Wars Live Part 3 which aired on the same day. Jeff a Mafia Wars developer and guest dancer for Mafia Wars Live, said that it would take "about a week or so "for the new Fight Module to roll out to all players. I want to know what this "or so" is all about! Check the date, it's been 21 days and still only a small percentage of players have the new Fight Module. If you don't believe it, listen to this 17 second video and hear it for yourself.
Now that the Assassin-a-Nator is live, many players want it. It doesn't help that for some unknown reason, a many players found that they got rolled back to the old Fight Module last night (1). Things are not progressing very fast! This ultimate slow roll out may help us to understand why the crew from Mafia Wars Live prefer to dance around player questions. When they do answer directly, they aren't always accurate as there is no way for them to predict what will happen in the future. Perhaps the next time they are asked for a time frame of a slow roll, they will provide a more Zynga appropriate answer like the one below. This was Jeff's first appearance on Mafia Wars Live and he isn't a pro like Nate. He got tired and had to take a break and a drink of water.

It's obvious Zynga bit off more than they could chew with this one..and made a giant mistake. Let's face it, the new fight page stinks!!! Now they are simply guilty of dragging their feet and trying to bow out gracefully!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't understand why people still listen to Zynga and believe what they say.....
I'm just tickled I don't have it!!!!
who cares about what module they have? as long as there is a bookmarklet for it, it doesn't matter...who fights manually anyway? people who have nothing better to do for 8 hours a day or who?
ReplyDeleteI started off on the old one then switched to the new one. After 2 days it went back to the old one and then to top it all off they put me back on the new one today!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI hate the new fight module!!!
