I love the fact they still need to add 'Protected By Gambino' to their profile when there's actually hardly any family and certainly no threat standing ;)

Perhaps it's just a warning to the 7 famless chief+ tho. ;)

I'll tell you what will eventually happen if they go with this city war system. Only the families with a large player base will benefit from this, while small families start to disappear the big fams will start getting bigger.

Eventually game will be played with max 10-15 families. Pacting will offcourse wont dissapear, 3 4 big fams will join and get spots on each others cities just so they can counter/help if necessary, 1v1 idea will never work and it will actually be the end of the game.


I completely disagree. We've seen this version that a few strong accounts can take down an entire family. Impact got their entire fam destroyed by 1 GF and 1 Decina. Small families will actually be able to put up a fight against larger fams now, even warring them by themselves if they so wish.

We don't even know the specifics of the new war system they're working on, but I think it'll help out a lot.

@anony

it's not a city based war system, it's a one on one war system which ENCOURAGES war within your hometown.
before many of you start chasing ghosts, just hold on a bit until we can publish the plan.

Should i say it, or do u say it...

Rip Omerta :w


We've raced threw versions way too fast lately. Every version we see groups of families clinching together waiting for a reset, often without clear winners. If no changes are made omerta will die out indeed. The new changes are needed due to the playstyle of families. One on one will be fun to see again and every family will actually be forced to come up with their own strategy plan.

Some small families will actually be the leader of their own family again. :)

KCode never said he stopped working and is sitting back now. He was pointing out that a good KA was developed and that the KA is no reason for a short version. It's the families rather than the developers that destroy the game right now. In short: People have been complaining about the admins and developers messing up, they can't be blamed for it anymore. It's time for players to look into a mirror.


Next to that, I realise you've been away for some time but KCode has done a hell of a job, doing several upgrades to the game. Upgrades that matter and that do make the game more fun to play for sure. New upgrades and development are still needed but that's what he and other people can brainstorm about. What will the next development be?

I really hope next version or even this version, families will start playing 'on their own'. I would have no problems having to shoot families I know if we'd both solo for the win. No hard feelings if one of the two dies, it's just a game.

Thing that I said is that admins are as much to blame as players are for massblooding and working in large groups. Admins forced down this play style to players, cause it was only way to win or survive. This wont go as simple as ''Oh we changed KA all is fine now, stop masblooding and if you keep doing so it's your own fault and you destroy the game''. No, things don't work that way. It's up to devs to give players options to play different than massblooding and still be able to feel safe, have fun and have chance at winning version.

I saw some stuff K-Code did (probably all) and honestly I liked it and it's a move in good direction for game, but this game needs more changes and it needs it fast. Game needs to become more dynamic, more diverse and more interesting for players. There needs to be more different ways to build account, more bodyguards and more itemization.

I said it before and I will say it again, most toxic thing about this game is double backfire, that thing right there is fucking up wars and making them all be same. Type in 60k and wait for outcome, and everyone who shoots less than 60k is absolute moron cause 60k is only way to have same shot at your target. Remove that and you might see less outnumbering, and more tactic into play.
Find way to include whole family as union into game and wars, and knowing how to use your family right in war (as in having plan, organization and execution) you actually have great shot at fighting war alone 1v1. Find way to give family chance to outplay other family 1on1 easier than it is now and in long run massive gang bangs will be gone. Give enough ''tools'' to repel massive backshooting for families that carefully plan their moves and problem of massblooding will solve itself in time.

This problem wont disappear in a version or two, same as it didn't become main problem in a version or two, but if you give enough ways to single family and single players to keep playing this problem will solve itself.

Oh and main problem with re-ranking is that people who killed you only grow stronger while you're set back significantly. Way to solve this is to make it possible to personalize accounts and give each account different role into family. This right here will solve every problem game has atm imo. It will make possible to fight wars 1on1, it will make possible to win wars 1on1 and it will give chance to everyone to re-rank and revenge on their killers. Just make it possible for 2-3 accounts (even lower ranks) work on killing some high Brug/CD together without preshooting.
Bringing different bodyguards into game with way to build them according to your needs/plans was good idea, but it's time to expand it...

While I played I offered many ideas, same as many other people did to Brando himself. Brando was just never really interested into listening them. He would say put them on x-mind and send em to me, which I would actually do if I thought he cared a tiny bit.

I never really thought about that double backfire option but it indeed seems to be kinda useless, nobody shoots 40-59k since you'll get 60k back anyway. I didn't really get the 'personalize and different roles in family part' and would like you to explain that a bit to me but I think going to Brando is not really the way to go. He never really seemed to pick up ideas.

Perhaps it would be better if guys such as KCode would do an hour chat/question/idea session once per 2 or 3 days and get in touch with the community that way.

KCode at 13:57:33 on 21/08:
[ex-player opinion]:
I find it hilarious that people keep complaining on KA or anything else when the biggest joke here is the amount of number of families up at the time resets are forced to come.

If you still prefer to blame the game for not being balanced at this point than looking at own mistakes, it's your choice but there won't be much more changes from now on.

o/
[/ex-player opinion]
(This is nothing but my personal opinion, as an ex-player. Don't assume it as a dev opinion)

[dev-speaking]:

We did our job, we give you tools and at the moment KA is not even defender neither attacker friendly, it's account strength friendly.

We are organizing a meeting today, I will give you more details on IRC global message.

Don't take it as offense cause it is not meant to be one but if you think that you did your job and that now you should sit and wait for players to change game whole dev crew needs to get fired and start finding new people.

This game is so outdated and un-fun to play once you die (it's not too fun to mindlessly click or hire lackeys at 1st place either) that it is your job to find ways to make it interesting. Players current ones and ex ones have enough ideas to make this gold mine for Brando again, and Brando heard already a lot of suggestions just he never cared enough to work on implanting them in game.

Players played way ''owners'' of this game let them play, considering how many slip ups and how unfair this game actually is (was?) it's amazing there are still players willing to play it.

There's so much work to do and changes to make before you guys can even think of saying Yep we did our job, now it's up to you players to make it interesting. No, you did not do your job, you just scratched surface of very rusty game that desperately needs an upgrade.

KA might be more fair but its still way, way more easy to kill off a entire family than it was in 3.0 . You can't say its a coincidence that versions got shorter since Rob retired. I can remember in 3.0 that some families couldnt even be brought down because they defended so great. In this version that is impossible. Mainly due to new KA but also hospital/blood/sh timers, villa effectivness reduced and even more attacking bodyguards.

I would have liked to see a little more items added to the market so it's more about choosing the right items instead of now where you need bullets and rp and other things that mainly cost time.

Older versions than 3.0 lasted longer than a year and there was no Rob back then, also you could die in one shot in those versions. I don't think that is the reason of short versions.

In fact the only main reason is the attitude of players, the aim of every family should be to end on top, last man standing. Right now the mentality of many family tops is not even close to the winning mentality.

Congratulations guys, you wanted to win and won with a gangbang. We're back at square one, where 15 fams "win" a version.

GG
Stop whining
Last version u blooded to stay alive with vaffan+
U should had when u had the change. But u guys waited and lost..

Put on your lackeys and rerank just like i do every version over and over
Point is not in winning or losing. Everyone whines about the massblooding but yet noone cares enough to do something about it.
wtf does that reranking thing have to do with what he said?

Actually Krays and Vaffanculo were blooded during the whole version as Soph said and Krays had shot for us when people tried to gangbang us. Krays has all the rights to ´whine´ since they always refuse to gangbang (I've seen them refuse wars because they thought the ratio was too big) and they did end the version with 4 families last version. Knowing Krays they would've tried ending this version with just 4 families again.

So if you talk about progression in the game; Yes Soph is right, we are back at square one.

flaffie is the same like vaffan :D

Vaffanculo always shot themselves, always got countered on, even by 12 families and has even survived wars in which they counterd against odds.

Not much similarities there.

I say this is what you get when you desperately try to make a mega alliance of 100+ brugs. Try to play alone next time Jannisary, why always 'asone' 5 other fams and blood 8 others.
so true....act 1st and you might win..wait..and you get killed...

No, what I ment was, Jannis would be smarter not to play with Loszetas, Cascio and the whole bunch. Pacts are disliked, especialy when you 'asone' so much with all kinds of fams.

Dear all,

Tonight we will open a few more spots in each city. If you want to start a family this is your chance.

Bramblerose

Lol, even the excisting spots aren't full yet, so why adding more spots?
Are they bored?

This just shows Bramblerose doesn't even LOOK at the game. Knowing all ins and outs of the game is 1 thing and I don't expect them to know EVERYTHING happening in the game.

This on the otherhand just shows Bramblerose, the version-manager, doesn't even look at the game at all. If I would be a version manager and I'd think about opening new spots, I'd first look if they were actually needed :D

'Now is your chance' ;)

If people wouldn't have been so touchy and biting the bait so fast, it wouldn't even have been more than 1 single post. It would've been on page 2 already and none would've even noticed it.

Funny how people, still play this game :')

Howso? Some people still have a bruglione account, a family or something else to play for. What do you expect? Everyone to just stop playing because you died or don't want to rerank because you think there's nothing to win for you anymore?

I assume you won't play next version either then or give the good example and stop playing when I die next version?

I don't think there was ever a moment where there were 100.000 players?

Accounts not players.

Important distinction. Still 100.000 might be a bit too high, I agree.

Well if thats the case then omerta has like what 4mill registered accounts?
xD


Yeah, omerta needs an impulse for new players for quite some time. The playerbase keeps shrinking, I can still remember in the past admins attached a lot of value to being top text based game etc. I don't think omerta is even in the top20 on most of them right now.

so gravano is bloods with cristeria impact kuro alamut cascio alderisio ascension signoria and lusa (who died last night)maybe i missed someone but thats 9 bloods and a couple of non shoot agreements with some fams in a game where there are 39...

And you guys are wondering how come they are still alive?

Gravano has become a joke fam, yea they shot alot this version, but they also blooded a shitload of fams, which made it impossible to kill them atm..

hey idiot
listen :) kuro/alamut/cascio/alderisio =1 and ascension/signoria=1 total 5 :)
hey mr now be nice.
1+1+1+1 = 4
1 + 1 = 6
now that is hardcore math man

ahaha idiot i said total bloods :) add cristeria impact lusa and above familys :D total 5
okey :)

i dont know who teached you math, but that person should really reconsider what to do with his/her life.
now we already have a sum of 6, then if we add another 3
6 + 3 = 9
I'm feeling quite smart right now thanks to you <3

Teached is the new solded, which was the new shooted!

And Gravano seems the new Illuminati apparently ...

Flowzz stfu bitch :P

My best man Nooti :P


He was talking about amount of families tho. It's 9 families out of 39 no matter what.

I mean if we start not counting them in because they are as 1 we should also leave every family below Alamut out, because those are all tiny families. Means they blooded 5 out of 16 xDDDD

But yeah ur fam is a joke, and sooner rather than later u'll be shot. This time not by ur own people :) Has anyone actually shot at you, except when ur having ur funny lil insidewars? But hey, u provide us some entertainment, thumbs up!

If you don't want to be mistaken for a noob, then don't post anonymous. Next to that, your comment doesn't show any signs of majority. Have some respect for people that start a new family and actually try to shoot for bloods.

There's enough families that die without doing a thing, most of them are small families but there's some big families that have died last versions without even having the intention of even fireing a shot. Atleast Campania tried doing what they could with a family their size.

Try having some respect.

i dont even have a account here. thats kinda on purpose.
u never know who can see your ip.. even here and go on a sniff for passwords or whatever regarding ingame.

[21:00:46] * Now talking in #WedontwantReset
[21:00:46] * Topic is 'RESETE HAYIR // We Dont Want Reset NONONONO'

Had about 60 people in there, and I just checked and saw:

[21:04:06] * You were kicked from #WedontwantReset by ChanServ (This channel has been closed)

+ Everyone else as well of course.

Lovely censorship, kind regards from our Goebbels crew. :)

old news, we all know they run a dictatorship. its like fucking north korea
Oh yes, it is old news. They always closed channels like this. The remarkable thing however is, that they still put effort into their censorship, even when the last 'omerta' devs have been moved on to work on other projects.

The omerta DCs have probably funded those other projects completely. Easy and safe way to invest in new games/projects.
