Mafia Wars Live recap notes

This past episode of Mafia Wars Live was the 9th broadcast, the first without Nate, and the first with Ben. It was also plagued by sound issues, and it was very difficult to glean any information from it. It was so bad that they didn't even bother posting the video, but they did post a list of the player-asked questions and the answers that Ben and Jeff provided during the broadcast.

MORE ZYNGA LIES:
"Getting a feature released to everyone has always been one of our priorities."

"We are pleased that you enjoyed the original Stamina Pack, but they were experimental in themselves."  

BULL!!! Where do they get off lying to our freaking faces!!

Igtenos asked: Why oh why do you hate Exotic animal feed so much? And Special Parts? We've complained countless times DO NOT TAKE THESE ITEMS OFF THE GIFT PAGE yet here we are yet again with the Exotic Animal Feed taken off the gift page.
Answer: Ah, the eternal struggle to properly stock the free gifts page. We are constantly reevaluating the mix of things that appear on it. We appreciate your continued feedback about what should be on it. 
. . .BLAH BLAH BLAH. How many freaking times have we complained about them bumping useful items from the Free Gifts page in favor of crap we don't care about? Nor do they appreciate our continued feedback, or this question wouldn't have even been asked.


  • A fight loot "refresh" should be coming in a few weeks. They won't give us another double loot event because they want us to work hard for the new loot.

  • The hit list won't be updated in the "foreseeable future".

  • Loyalty program won't be updated any time soon.

  • Family-related achievements will be coming.

  • Future Union Hall updates will probably include an option to collect cash from properties.

  • Ice Seasons are to be an ongoing event, but look for changes soon.

  • There will be a new fighting feature that will make surviving attacks much more important. ★★You hear that, Health Haters??★★

  • More bullshite about Power Pack "experiments".

  • They liked IreneNP's idea about being able to find Family members by typing in their name, and said it was likely to be added eventually.

  • Family mock wars are coming soon. Month is working on that feature now.


    Don Jimbo asked: How soon could a feature be included, possibly in the inventory section, to identify the items used in defense when a player was last attacked or if that player were attacked at that moment?
    Answer: We recall this coming up in a previous episode of Mafia Wars Live!, so this makes 2 people who want such a feature... or the same person asking twice? Unfortunately, we would need quite a bit more interest in such a feature to consider devoting the time it would take to create.

    (So in other words no one at Zynga gives a crap about your idea.)


    If you have any follow up or entirely new questions, be sure to ask them in the forum post for Episode 10 of Mafia Wars Live!, which will broadcast live at 3:30 pm PDT on Wednesday, September 7th.
