I agree

Surely hope it's worth the wait. If it isn't fixed? I'll have to leave the game, mobster stats where they are cause it's just not the same fun anymore. Don't get it twisted, I'm a vet hunter, no bot, so I can list and catch with the best of them but if I can kill for free? Why the hell wouldn't I want to do it that way,repeatedly especially to someone deserving of it? Punching in the hospital is a part of Mob rules. They visit folks in the hospital to finish them off, now they might not punch them per say, they might take a pillow and smother a bum, or turn off all their ICU equipment etc, but this is where our imaginations can take over folks. You know how many people I've elbow dropped, choke slammed, baby powder slapped in killed in ICU? You know how funny that is to see someone deserving of being iced repeatedly get pissy cause I edited the text like that? Priceless man, I'm telling you, nothing like it at all. Waiting to play or uninstall.

So your honestly basing your decision to play on one silly little punching feature. I never used it, never bought badges. I simply listed someone that got on my nerves, other times I simply ignored them.

The mercy rule itself, affected your ability to badge kill people and you didnt complain about that. If someone has logged off, you can only kill them once.. so how exactly does the punching rule change that? the answer: not much.

i say, if you are threatening to leave, then just leave. I am calling your bluff.

That's an open challenge to anyone. I don't think "Punching" someone while they lay in a hospital bed is very "mobsterly" at all. In fact it seems like a pretty pussy way to keep from having to directly approach someone. And also, I'm neither a dickhead or a mobtard on mobsters, so I've really earned no reason to be "punched to death", and I'm not an overexcited 12 year old drama queen, so I don't use any of my 6 stam accounts (with 600 stam each, CUT and BlowPop can attest to that) to punch people either.

Yeah A real mobster would post fake guards, go in and put a pillow over his face. Same difference. Pillow just don't leave a mark. . .

I agree on the health comment though. NO ONE. Can punch me to death on my main. 3400 health. Feel free to waste your time. Only way it'll happen is if I'm logged out for a while, and then ya can only do it once.

The only people this rule helps is the ones that DO HIDE in the hospital on purpose. This rule gives every mobster the ability to be killed, then sit in the hospital and list til his money runs out.

What this turns it into is a game of income, the good think is ou have 5 free levels to build you bounty up. So do it and do it well.

Could someone tell me how to buy a police badge? I can't seem to find the loot store.
Thanks!

There's a HUGE difference, with just the mercy rule they either logged out or ran the chance of being badged to death, with the punching cap they're free to run their pie holes/punch/list until their health meter brings them out of the hospital which even at the base health of 100 takes 1 hour!

You cannot "buy" a police badge they are gained from the Infiltrate Police Department mission in DownTown

You get the badges by doing the Downtown: Infiltrate Police Department
mission. You cannot buy badges.

I'm lost here. Do you NOT see the inherent hypocrisy in your statements? Let me point it out. If you say "If you have a complaint about mobsters.. the simple answer is QUIT PLAYING" then I have a retort. If you don't like reading the complaints in the forums, the solution for YOU is simple: STOP READING THE FORUMS FROM A GAME YOU NO LONGER PLAY. Am I missing something here?
If you wanna help someone out by giving advise, I am all for it. But for a NON-PLAYER to express opinions on game play strikes me as being a bit pointless.
