The Official Mafia Wars Blog put out some more fluff about Chicago
(1). We learn that the creepy guy has a name and it's Joe Castellano. It's more interesting that there are in game signs.
My name is Joe Castellano. You just caught a glimpse of my little town; a place where one can become a legend. And here's the whole picture. There are plenty of opportunities, for those who know where to look. But at night... in the wrong part of town… with no friends around... Who’s got your back?
There is also a montage of all the "Sneak Peek" black and white images with the new banner in the center.
If you haven't noticed already, Chicago has been added to the Travel Bar and it says "New".
There is also a ad for it on the Home Page Ad Module.
When you click on Chicago from the Travel Bar or the "Learn More" link from the ad, you are taken to this page.
We don't learn a whole lot but we can see the properties are going to be a "bootlegging operation".
There will be a "crew". I'm hoping these will be more bonuses like we use in Brazil.
And of course there will be jobs. I really hope they don't cost 1,000 energy per click. This is suppose to be Old School, right? Let hope they are more like New York jobs and way less like Brazil jobs. At this time, I have no idea when "Soon" is. We still have a Secret District so maybe after. They love to give us a million things to do at once so that may not hold them back. As of now, there have been no loot items added to our inventory.

I would much prefer Brazil-style jobs (and fighting). Running repeat-job on double-digit energy jobs is not my idea of fun. Nor is 1/5 stam fighting. I'd like to be able to do all the leveling I can do with the game's bonuses in less than 5 hours, even if I am leaving much of it to scripts.
ReplyDeleteIf they would just ramp up the damage dealt per attack and the VCs so that it was proportional to a higher stam/attack expenditure, we'd have a more ideal fighting venue for people with the levels of stamina and health all the properties have made possible.
Let's also hope that the currency is dollars, so that we can go after the money achievements without having to repetitively fight the big fat black dude.
ReplyDeleteWhat about fighting?? o.O
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing mentioned about fighting in Chicago!! :((
I for once hope that some jobs cost energy and/or stamina and cost a percent of the players overall stamina/energy, lets say 5 percent...this would be awesome, and not all the jobs would be like this but some (like the boss fights in new york) and of course the pay and expo would increase but not lineary, but so that higher stamina/energy players will have added bonuses...
ReplyDeleteI hope there will be any fight jobs
ReplyDeletewell i hope they don't have bugs with it and launch it in an equal play field which they always claim
ReplyDeletehope it uses new york dollars
