Omerta has been resetted once more. But we can't say it was without any troubles.

People have been mass joining #help to complain about not receiving any donation codes.

Donations seem to be working again. Some people who donated via PayPal might have received their DCs via email instead of ingame messages.
statements
Dear all,

Welcome to this new version of Omerta.

We have a nice new feature this version and you will hear all about it soon in a newspost.

Profile pictures are disabled for now, we will bring them back up soon again.

The winners of the Hall of Fame already received their vouchers, Congratulations to all of you.

Have fun!

Two suggestions to avoid scripting:
1.- When you reach Assassin rank you stop receiving rp from crimes attempts/cars (you can give more rp for group crimes so it wouldn't be that hard to reach bruglione).


Actually I really like this idea. What do others think?

Very easy to organise as well...

Anonymous at 02:50:54 on 03/04:

2.- Make narcs/booze a group activity.

Obviously very similar and I also like - but can you explain how this might work.

I am eager to know what others on this forum think of these suggestions. I sort of expect them to be un-popular.

Would it lead to mass-duping up to Assoc then mass-Assoc wars?

Naturally 'no idea/suggestion if foolproof'...

Had posted a bit about this before. The idea of lackeys isn't that bad imo. The problem is that with lackeys comes money, with money you can buy the full market and put sluggs on. And then that's that. Not a lot of fun to be had, and the things you can achieve, that give you power are almost all lackey-fueled.

Instead of removing lackeys and going back to crimes, you could make the whole market-experience(e.g. where you gain your power) a lot more interactive. Instead of it taking money to train bg's, make it effortbased. You got 8 cities, put up some sort of school of criminals or something of the sorts in every city where you can school 1 of your bodyguards. Make that a group-based activity. F.e. you have to go to palermo(where obviously some famous jail resides) to train your ray, and you have to form a group of 3/4 people to get training. You make it take 10 steps to train your bg 1 level and only 1 training allowed per half hour or something.

Make it 8 bg's, 1 for each city, everyone with a distinct function. Like one that helps you get better crimes from your lackeys, and helps your lackeys do crimes more often. One that does the same for cars, one for booze, one for narcs, you get my drift. You got Lex for group crimes.

You could do the same with flying, something like train your pilots, the more your pilots fly the better they get. The better they get, the shorter the cooldownperiod for flying. Same with protection, instead of buying a villa and having 250 protection instantly you could have guards and dogs that you can train(dogfights _O_). Trainable chauffeurs for all your cars in the market.

Imo killing should be more drawn out aswell. Maybe make it so that you have to kill someone's bg's first before you even get a chance of killing them. Or to make it more fun, make it possible to torture bg's for information about whereabouts of villa's etc. Vic would make a nice torture-specialist f.e. Maybe a bg that's specialized in blowing up/infiltrating villa's even. It would make creating a wellbalanced account and/or family all the more challenging aswell all those different functions everywhere.

And again, you end up contradicting yourself.

Brando: I agree lackeys are a problem, and we need to find a way to get rid off them. They have served tbeir purpose, forcing scripts outof business, but now they need to go. Yadda, yadda, yadda.

That was Brando's message a few days ago.

Now he agrees (and rightly so), with somebody who doesn't believe anybody in their right mind would start to play manual again.

I agree with someone criticising 'shoot the bottle' – I don't follow his football team and love his girlfriend, mother and dog though – please don't think that if I agree with one thing you say (anyone says) That I agree with everything a person says!


Anonymous at 15:16:08 on 02/04:
So, let's see.
People won't play manually anymore, and lackeys have to go.
I think, I found the solution, you don't want people to play anymore at all.

If you think that I think that you are silly.

Ok, that could have been concluded already from the way you've been running things.

On a seperate note, you have become awfully quite, when we started to speculate about your "2 milion email addresses". You could at least have done something about our concern, that you keep an archive of long gong user's email addresses.

If you think that we don't keep your (opt-in) registration email addresses you are even sillier.

What is a 'gong user' – I like percussion – especially brass percussion...

It was an obvious typo, but I am glad good ol' Brando the cheap shot artist is still somewhere in there. For a brief moment, I was worried you might choke on all those boiled crows you seem to have eaten lately. I know you are begging... Pardon, making a collection for the church of sanctimonious Brando, but sorry to bring it to you, you have lost your flock. But enough about your crookiness.

Your message was, we have to sue your company, before you delete our registrations mails, is that correct? Dear god, your servers have been hacked so often, that any concerns on our part concerning our data security is pobably way too late anyway, but still...

I am not legal expert on British law, BUT I think you are obliged to delete your treasures after a certain time span (2 years or so?). You are not the NSA or the British Secret Service afterall.
And if I recall it correctly, nobody has released you from your obligation to act responsible with our personal datas.
Sorry dude, but your "company" looks more repellent by the minute, if you actually believe you are entitled to the email addresses of people who have not played your game in years.

So who supports the bid?

I suppose that whatever you say, some of you think it is a good idea. Hopefully those of you who do, will say so and those of you who don't will be objective about 'why not'

Nobody gives a flying fuck about shooting the 'bottle', it doesnt add anything. Tiredness? Do you honestly believe people will play this game manual anymore?



I so wish that I could phrase this as emphatically on .com

If there was a fair and easy way to distinguish whether you bought the DC with your own account for real-life money and have those credits carry over, that would be nice. But I doubt they can easily distinguish between credits on your account.

There has been some discussion about this between myself/crew/dev

We are trying to find a work-around to the challenge you accurately identify here.

I want to thank you Brando for coming here and responding to complaints/concerns people have.

That's my work-life balance. I do what I can, when I can.

Kris at 15:40:38 on 31/03:
While you and I have had our arguments in the past, its nice to see you active. My hope is that you'll continue to remain active in the community and not just when you're in search of money :)

I am always 'active' and all of this is for the company, its staff & the various projects we are involved in. I don't get the time I would like to to engage with players, but I always put in a 70+ hour week.

I'm not 'just here for the money' personally I could earn twice as much just 'working for someone else'. I do this because I love it.

And the crowd-funding bid is more than money these bids, properly supported raise a lot of interest and generate new players.

Kris at 15:40:38 on 31/03:
Was having a conversation with someone about lackeys and have a question for you. A lot of us accept that lackeys are here to stay and mostly have no issue with that. Is there however a chance that a discussion could be held for how to ensure manual rankers still retain an significant advantage?

Yes, but please be patient, there is one of me & many people with an opinion.

Kris at 15:40:38 on 31/03:
Perhaps make lackeys 50% slower than manual rankers?

This would instantly advantage scripts. Thanks for the suggestion but this is not a solution.
Kris at 15:40:38 on 31/03:
Crime/Car timers when running lackeys be 2/10 minutes respectively? Still allows for RP to be gained when sleeping/afk but allows for an advantage with those who play the game. If sluggs buys your bullets, make the timer 2 hours instead of 1? Just some thoughts bounced around. Thanks for your time.

Same: scripters charter.

This must be addressed. IMHO the only way to do it is to keep throttling the script makers trade by offering the basics (crimes/cars) with parity and via lackeys.

Then big up the less-scriptable factors...

Anonymous at 19:38:28 on 31/03:
He will be gone for a few months again soon. As for your point, the MOMENT they give manual rankers any advantage the scripts will be back up and running.

My bad for not reading first.... This 'Anonymous' is 100% correct.

I will try to keep my eye in & come here more often. I am just a busy fellow. Sorry for that!
