Xmas Town Map, Tips, Thoughts · · 50 likes


I have explored as much of Christmas Town as I could and I have created this map:

Thoughts:

Each year I am interested in Christmas Town, it's something different that you can experience in Torn. You get some free stuff which is always nice. Despite walking pretty much the entire map, I am yet to see a chest that I can get to. Have seen at least 3-4 chests in areas I could not reach. The spawns of free stuff, and the grinch/santa seem to only be in the area near North of the First Aid Tent and near the game tents and some in the Jail.

Any ideas on chest spawns? What about the spot at (70,57) which always just says "You wait to see if a chest spawns". Has anyone actually got a chest there?

I realise that more stuff will be opened up, but it seems such a waste of the map to have nothing else there. Its also quite boring to walk around with nothing to do. I definitely enjoyed the old Xmas towns way more where you actually had the storyline and the little missions like go to x,y and do this etc. Having the game tents are ok but the games are kinda boring.

And the lag. All of the above would be somewhat bearable if ur person moved faster. It takes forever to get anywhere, only to slip on the ice and back to the first aid tent.

I'm glad that we had so many developers working on this for weeks and weeks. That and poker 2.0 are such a waste. Give us crimes and warring instead, the 2 pillars on which this game is built.

Tips:

Walking into cars (and sometimes next to cars) results in being arrested --> Jail, this is a quicker way to get to the Jail than by walking.

Police cars give police brutality --> First Aid Tent

Walking in the parking lot in the west often results in being run over by a silent Prius --> First Aid Tent

Walking into any holly bushes (red dots on green bush) --> First Aid Tent

Walking to the toilets in the Game Tent areas can give you a disease --> First Aid Tent

There definitely appear to be lines that you can't cross on the ice, you always get sent to the First Aid Tent when you try to cross them, especially up near the west of the Jail.

When hiring new employees the only criteria we have to judge off of is Last Action on their profile.
If this doesn't actually correlate to Activity can we at have some other status on their profile to indicate "Employee Activity".
Then at least we can avoid people who don't meet the unknown activity criteria.

Weapon Mods Able To Be Refunded · · 24 likes


I have searched through the suggestions on weapons mods and the only one I was able to find was a suggestion to allow them to be tradeable. Now I believe Ched mentioned that weapon mods are to be personal (non tradeable) and I am happy with that as it is less open to abuse.

My suggestion is to allow weapon mods to be sold back to the game. Essentially a full or partial refund for mission credits that you can then use on something else.

e.g.

Say I have bought the Stage 1 Reflex Sight (+14% accuracy) for 600 credits. This opens up the possibility of the Stage 2 Holographic Sight (+16% accuracy) appearing in the rewards. If I then purchase the Holographic Sight, it makes my Reflex Sight useless since I can't equip both. My suggestion is being able to sell a mod back to the game (not to anyone else) for either a full refund of 600 credits or maybe a partial refund like 300-400 credits.

Merits from attack will come naturally with time, better to work on your stats

I would have no problem with this. HOF chains should simply show each factions fastest go at reaching each milestone.if they hit all those fastest milestones in one 100k chain then good on them.

It shouldn't show every time a faction achieved that milestone though. That's just cluttering up the ladder. For example I think B3 have 7 50k chains in the list. They are obviously chaining beasts but just show the fastest one.

I have played this game for many years and YZ was a big part of it. I'm saddened to hear this news.

We were original R* and then M and we also co-owned and ran an oil rig for many years. You will be missed

Great work to those PT who have been very active!

Ched, any chance we could rotate the competition start time. So sick of it always starting in the middle of the night and all the best tags being gone. As anyone serious about this comp knows the first hour is the most important hoovering up those good tags.

Was the RG fight the first time you tried for the log? Or were numerous losing attempts required before getting one where you got the sure shot off?

Love the idea of being able to customise but as everyone else has said, on mobile it's horrible being forced to have certain ones in the first slots. I mean having Awards stuck there? Cmon!

At least in the old version you could pin things you liked in the top spots

It's not bullshit that staff may or may not know more information.
The bullshit thing is that the crime experience result does practically nothing

(TV) Press Pass CXP · · 1 like

It does basically nothing. On par with the box of tissues result.
Over Halloween I did 16,800 JPs worth of TV station Press Pass.
I received 65 crime experience results.
Despite continuing to do warehouse arsons I fell 2 places in our overall PA rankings that were not accounted for by player movement.

Just have the milestones once (the fastest) for each faction. Problem solved. You only have at most 13 entries for each faction (hit #10 up to hit #100k). And then you have the true fastest for each milestone for that faction.

TV Press Pass gaining crime exp result broken · · 4 likes

I completely understand that people joining above me would cause me to move down and people above me leaving would cause me to move up. That's completely logical.

I guess my point is that I went down 2 spots that are unaccounted for by player movements, despite doing continuous arsons (the standard the community measures CE by) whilst also doing 65 press pass +crime exp rewards.

It sounds like the takeaway here is that +crime exp press pass is equivalent to getting the 10 boxes of tissues - complete rubbish
