Forums › Suggestions & Feedback › Current gps location turf Capture-

Call it Drive-By turf Capture and will enhance the gps feature.

An added feature to this would be a 40% increase to both attack/defend if a player is located (via gps) to thier turfs for defense and/or for their drive-by attack strengths for those turfs they are targeting.
This would slightly help those weaker players and those who don't have iPhones or are less mobile. It would also make those thinking about turf hopping to reconsider.

A+ I say yes

I threw this exact same idea out here about 3 months ago...the biggest argument is that it would be unfair to those people tethered to wifi with their ipod's. iPhone users would have a distinct advantage.

Go ahead with me

most of ther turfs would likely be in gps range.Also people relegated to local wifi spits are limited to expansion anyways.

No, the normal game rules would apply, this is an added feature. Those users have to turf hop to move anyhow. I did not say this was the only way to cap turf, but allowed people to capture turf based on their current location without laying a turf down and waiting the 24 hour period.
So iPod users would only be able to capture a turf from their GPS position IF the turf they wanted to capture was within 0.6 mi (standard GPS influence range) of a wi-fi hot spot.Call it a drive by capture. This is after all a gps based game and those with iPods are limited quite a bit. At least allowing them to get the 40% boost in attack/defend would provide support since they are more in range

Oi !!! My idea lol... Well maybe mat beat me to it... Lemme grave dig

Hey either way as of now they can't just place a turf without having wifi! It would just be for the ipad/ iPhone users
-
Yep
-
Yeah for drive by capping
-
The problem I have with these ideas is that they are really just ways to try to get around turf limit. The only way to make this kind of capture fair is if you had to have at least 3 empty turf slots

What if there was a limit for 1 driveby a day?
-
Or one per week or month. Whatever is reasonable.
-
And there would be a cost to this in turf wars $$$

I was a little rediculous about the three slot limit but the player should have one empty slot. Do this Your way and you would start seeing players with hundreds upon hundreds of captured turfs in multiple cities. Not to memtio no one would by turf from the don anymore. What would be the point when you could just go somewhere else and capture. None of the big capturers would be landlocked anymore they would just spread like viruses into nearly every city. I dint think there is Any way to implement this idea and retain game balance

Also I disagee about hundreds of capped turfs in those cities unless someone is going to drive/walk around fir a few days/ hours to do this. On the other hand. Once they leave a town the locals can drive by again and get the 40% bump in attack.

very few can. Like what four or five of the top mobsters are mobile? These tend to be players that bought up their turf limit so that they didn't have to capture.Belial wrote:

I also have real issue with your 40% Att/ deff hike. Once again there are alot of touch users who play this game many of us out of necessity have our turfs very far away from our wifi spots. This would pretty much eliminate me from the game. My nearest turf to my current location is over 10 miles away.
-
You also never adressed the don point issue putz. This is what keeps the game going and with this feature no one would ever buy points again. Not to mention the rip off to those of us who already raised our now worthless turf max

This would only apply for drive-bys not normal turf capping. There will always be some advantage, like those whonhave played longer who have entered codes for plAyers mo longer active and those with tons of real cash to get a higher turf limit and henchmen. iPhone users already have a huge advantage over touch users.I also have real issue with your 40% Att/ deff hike.

How about making it a loot item? This seems like nicks most used compromise and It would be a cool loot item I must admit.
