What I've noticed is... Missions usually have one choice that will give bonus award if you carry out the mission as planned. For example, if the mission asks for a silent assassination, it's probably best not to use a bomb , and it will probably give you bonus cash/exp if you succeed with a knife.
the fight system seems like a complete mystery with regards to how the numbers get calculated... for example. Me (lv. 30): 12 - strength 12 - dexterity 41 - accuracy 12 - speed using a G37 @ 38 damage Them (lv. 25): unknown stats using a silencer bomb @ 13-19 damage I take 31 damage and they take 29 - something seems wrong here. That weapon they use is really low level but yet they do just enough damage to kill me. I can understand if they stacked their stats all in dexterity but how is my gun only doing 29 damage when I have 41 points in accuracy. I lose way too much money in fights where I'm losing by 1 or 2 points to very low levels with terrible weapons.
This is most likely because the user you are fighting has upgraded his/her attributes. If the user you're fighting has placed many points into Speed (Resists firearm damage) and many points into Dexterity (Increases explosive damage) then the above scenario makes sense.
How about this scenario.. Fight lost. I received 24 damage. They received 49 damage. I can't win even when I do more damage...
Fight results are calculated by who does a higher % of damage. So if the enemy had far more HP than you (or you were not at full HP), it is possible the enemy brought you to a lower % of HP than you brought him. This is the most balanced way to calculate fights, as it takes into account total HP and damage dealt. We are constantly analyzing features in the game to adjust for balance, so if this feature becomes an issue we will change accordingly.
Aw shit that explains A LOT. Because I was losing so much money overnight I would run myself down to 0 health and then when I wanted to fight I would add only 20-30 health (just enough to fight).
Hi unisonsports, thanks for the great game! Can anything be done about crashes? I re-started the phone after install, but the game still crashes every 30 minutes or so. This is the only problem I have, really. Other than this, the game is awesome!
I did not connect the app to facebook. The crashes seem to be random, i.e. blackmarket, missions. I just re-start the app when this happens. Not sure if this could be memory utilization issue, but all other apps work fine.
unisonsports, FYI: i've just upgraded from free version, and the app no longer crashes. So the problem might be just with the free version. edit: I spoke too soon. just crashed on black market screen
I'm thinking of actually putting money into this app as I'm really enjoying it. Quick question: I imagine it's a new icon and therefore a new app. Will I lose my character info or is it safe to assume it's on the server and as long as I put in the same name, I'm good to go?
I'm also being told if you have a lot of memory being used by the phone (like if you have multiple safari windows open) this might affect it. Also, are you playing on a 3g generation 2 iphone or generation 1? And what version firmware are you running on your iPhone / iPod?
This game is pretty rock solid with fighting and missions. It has a catch to everything! I also like the point system, you can't just pile all your points on your gun because, as well as it being gun damage it also does your ability to do something else, so you have to have points in most everything. It is a very addicting game. It is virtually hacker proof and keeps you from just blowing all the level 1's out of the water with your intel. This game is one of the most well crafted Mob games on the app store, except for when you attack a level 1, only to figure out they spent $40 on some insane gun that kills all. The bonus guns are virtually an "I Win" button. 4.5/5
anyone else having issues at the moment? It's barely possible to fight.. it says "loading fight", and then "you are not online", even though eventually a fight does seem to happen, but you don't see the result. But the bigger issue is that all of my stats are getting rolled back periodically. I.e. I got to level 8 20 minutes ago and flew to Washington, then I got rolled back to level 7 and ended up in London. This has happened twice in the last 30 minutes..
they must have fixed fight issue - it's working fine at the moment. also, UI response time has improved a lot. i'm liking the game so far.
