Guys I have an idea of mine that refers to the ranking system in Mafia Returns.Since this game ranking resembles the La Cosa-Nostra system I have a few ideas of making it even more accurative:

1) The title Boss is considered to be higher from the Consig from the real mafiosi.The Consig must be the councilor and the hand of the Don and the rank itself shall be given to the RHM and the LHM.It has to be given only by the Don to those,he believes are worthy for helping him rule his family.The Rank shall be made a sacred title that shall not be given just because a player has reached lv 40.

2)There must be Don heirs.The idea when the Don dies the family dies with him is not good at all.Because most of the players in the crew have known each other for a long time and have bond a connection.So there comes the heir.He can either choose to keep the same family name or change it,but the family must be able to survive.Those who have got used to work in a team must not be scattered to different families just because their Boss is dead,of course if thats what they want.

3)The ranking opportunities-Well everyone's first aim in this game is to get Made and to become a part of the family he has chosen.To contribute for its future successes and wealthfare.When you get Made you start climbing the ladder of the real ranking stuff.Going through Made Man,Capo,Boss,Consig and eventually to Don.Well think about it and tell me what is the difference between lv 40 Capo and lv 40 Boss except the additional OC with the Boss.Absolutely nothing,it is pointless struggle and its only purpose is to get to Don.Well my asking to those who came up with the idea of this great game to spend some time thinking about giving a little more opportunities to the lower ranks than Don and Godfather.Let us all be proud of our ranks no matter Capos,Bosses or Dons.After all we are all family right?

It's not a bad idea, but I can tell you it's probably not something that will be enforced by the admins.  The ranks are set up where the CL can decide how they'd like to handle their own ranks.  Some choose to promote as high as possible, some choose to have something similar to what you've said in place as far as structure.

Basically, if you want to see this implemented, best to work your way up and become a CL/GF to enforce this.

I'd really like to see the capo rank have subcrews made up of Made men.

Alright lets see.

1.) Ranks I don't feel should be messed with. I mean they have been around for all the time I have been here. They are already know to majority of people.

2.) I despise this idea. A lot of people will join a leader for that particular leader, not for a member. Therefore the idea that loyalty should be there just because you worked together is somewhat absurd to me. Loyalty to a leader, check. Loyalty to whoever they decide to pass the family off to? No thanks.

3.) Not quite sure what the suggestion was here. Maybe there isn't one but the additional difference is the names of the ranks. The fact that one is technically higher on the spectrum than any other. You may be right though, I think it is generally clumped from Made Man to Don as just family. Whereas the lower ranks are classed as associates most of the time.

Well Raina since you mentioned it,if the leader dies his crew member will have a choice.

1)Leave and go find another family

2)Stay with the guys you can count on,following the man who was entrusted by the former CL to be the underboss(RHM)

Consig should be unlocked at level 35 and Boss at Level 40

Henry, not all CLs make great choices with their RHs. So to assume just because the CL liked them that the rest of the family did too is insane. It's not done via a popularity vote. The CL chooses who they want, not who the rest of the family wants. 

I also think it is a rarity that people get a choice to just go wherever they want when a CL dies. If the CL dies via war the family is usually dead with it. If they die from rogue then most times people are forced to stay in their district (or city).
