Sorry for the downtime.
8:51:04, June 13, 2009Suggestion Contest
We will now be having a suggestion contest to see who can come up with the best original addition to Criminal Impulse. I am not looking for a change to how something already works, I would like suggestions on only brand new features.
The best 3 ideas(chosen by yours truly) will be added to Criminal Impulse, no questions asked. The winners will be chosen over time(enough time for me to make the features). I am planning on adding the new features as quickly as possible though.
The first place winner(s) will receive $200,000 on their account(s), the second place winner(s) will receive 250 crystals, and the third place winner(s) will receive a Misc Special Donator Pack. If more than 1 person is involved, crystals will be split accordingly.
Good luck everyone.
7:58:13, May 28, 2009There are quite a few updates so please take the time to read them all!
Donator Pack Special
In light of all of the updates you are about to read, there will be a short donator pack special running until the beginning of June. For every $5 you spend on donator packs, you will receive a free donator pack.
Gang Leaders Must Choose Gang HQ Location
Gang leaders must now select their HQ location.
From now on you will only be able to declare war on gangs in the same location as you.
If you are not in the same location as your gang HQ when an OC goes off, you will not participate.
Drive-bys now only hit those gangs in the same area as your gang.
Pipe bombs only start a war if the opposing gang is in the same location.
In light of this, all wars have been cleared.
Attacking Complete!
The new attack system is now out of beta. All bugs have been squashed(as far as we know). You cannot run away during fights, bounties now work again, hp is now counting down correctly, you can now equip armour again, the negative clip issue is fixed, and just for a reminder, as you know, when you unequip your weapon you also take the clip out and lose it, and when you equip it automatically inserts a new clip.
Logout
The logout button now works again, it was down before.
Moves
More moves have been added, however we are still looking for more move names. I have created a thread in the suggestions section, please post you suggestions for the move names there. The topic describes what we are looking for.
Tutorials And Prizes
We are looking for users to write tutorials for our various pages in the game. A thread has been pinned in the support section, it will describe what we are looking for. If your tutorial is used, you will receive 20 crystals as a prize.
One Voting Site Removed
Since one of the voting sites changed the way it works, we have removed it. There are now only 5 sites up and 8 points up for grabs each day now. Also, if you vote for at least 2 of the sites, the vote link will stop blinking.
Forum Reminder
Our forums are growing a little bare, and I just wanted to remind you all that you do receive credits at certain levels of posting, so we highly encourage any posts you make. Our new forum moderators have been chosen and they need something to do, so go check out the forums, and don't be afraid to create new threads/topics!
View User And Hall Of Fame Additions
You can now view a few more things on a players profile, including jail busts, forum posts, and their current job. The format has also changed slightly. The hall of fame now also has jail busts as a category.
Hope everyone likes the updates! Cheers!
