Mafia Wars Update on Fighting
Mafia Wars Update on Fighting ( 8/1/2012)
Dear Mobsters,
We have news for you! Most of you have requested for a better notification when you are attacked. We are experimenting with a system that notifies your recent attack when you are playing. Please note that the feature is still in beta phase and would require community feedback for improvements.
Please note: We will be rolling this addition today at 03:00 AM PST. Since it’s a slow roll out, some of you might not be able to view this new addition until we roll this out to all players.
Also for the time being, clicking on the notification will have either one of the 2 behaviors:
1. Takes you to the opponent’s profile page or
2. Takes you to fight page with the opponent, by dealing an attack. Based on the players response and inputs there could be further improvements to the new additions.
We welcome your feedback HERE.

Gift 110 Loots Per Day
Mobsters,
Many of you requested us to increase the cap on the number of loots you could gift to your Mafia per day.
We took your suggestion into consideration and now you we have increased the cap on gifting the loots to your Mafia from 85 to 110!
We welcome your feedback on this change via this very quick survey and hope that you continue to enjoy Mafia Wars.
