Why not enable every HQ to put a song or music list on its HQ, so whenever anyone is at their home city, they can listen to the music played by their HQ, (and of course can disable sound to not listen to it)

Report Post Tip

I think this will be highly annoying to the majority of people, then stack on top the copyright issues, and even if we found a source for legal songs, they would be probably proceeded with advertisements... It's just a clusterfuck of mehhhh.  I think it would be better to make your own you tube channel and provide a link, this way its not forcing it on anyone, and anyone can go and be exposed to it willingly rather than having to go out of their way to disable it.

Good Point :)

This isn't Myspace. At its core, it is a text based mafia role playing game, please keep this in mind when making a suggestion.

Report Post Tip

Thanks MarcusJones for the Advice. I did not know you are with the Admins. 

Anyways, i think I can suggest anything i want, ,and this is why it is called suggestions Forum. So that others can reply saying their opinions.

I believe Mafia would have played radio sometimes in their Houses or offices.

Report Post Tip
Yes, they probably would have. However, this is a TEXT based game. That means you use your words. You want to set the atmosphere with your words not an external music source. You want music, cue up your favs on your favourite music player and have fun.
Report Post Tip
Wolf, Marcus gave you constructive criticism, I suggest perhaps listen to what was said instead of being so defensive.

His opinion counts just like yours so I see no reason as to why you were dismissive of his input.
Report Post Tip

Dear TyrionLannister , I did not mean to be dismissive to his input at all. As you said This is Suggestions Forum, Brain Storming Technique requires different handling of ideas on the table. I felt his words was a bit agressive despite the fact, we are only suggesting things here.

And as I said, I'm sure in Houses of Mafia, they used to play some music.

Anyways Tyrion & MarcusJones, Apologies if I seemed aggressive, that was not my intention, Cheers :)

Report Post Tip
Yes, but suggesting something doesn't mean it isn't open to criticism, negativity and bashing.
Report Post Tip

I'm always open to Criticism Maedhros, There is many ways to express Harsh and negatively and with respect at the same time. His reply was based on the fact that This is Mafia, and my answer was based on Mafia Theory as well. I felt he is saying indirectly: Are you stupid? This is Mafia Game. That is why my answer was a bit sarcastic as well. But anyways guys, I did not mean any harm. I pull back my music suggestion :)

Every good HQ forum writer, should have a jukebox in it. If theres not one, its a 'wtf r u doing?!' situation imo =p

Report Post Tip

If there is an absolute need for music to set the theme of a thread you could always create a YouTube playlist and embed it as a link within your role play that way people can choose to listen to it or not. Here is an example:

 

She smiled as she placed the record player needle down on the sweet vinyl disc she'd been yearning to listen to all day. She'd just gotten home from a long day at the office and wanted nothing more than to sit down with a glass of wine and relax. So many people she'd wanted to stab in the face.

Or you could opt for the route of embedding individual songs in your post using keywords. Here is an example:

 

She smiled as she placed the record player needle down on the sweet vinyl disc she'd been yearning to listen to all day. She'd just gotten home from a long day at the office and wanted nothing more than to sit down with a glass of wine and relax. So many people she'd wanted to stab in the face. As she padded her way into the kitchen she smiled at her precious kitty, Roar, and made kissy noises in her general direction only to go ignored as usual by the fluffy boob. After getting herself a glass of wine and a few slices of bacon she'd cooked this morning she flopped down on the couch and closed her eyes as the sound of her favourite music rolled through her head like a lullaby.

Now, as you can see the above example has a few links embedded that lead to amazing music on YouTube. This short reply occupied me for 15 minutes. That's 15 minutes that I was amused by something other than clicking.

Many things that are suggested can be role played out quite easily. This is what the game is about. It isn't about clicking your life away. You'll notice most of my replies to your threads will point out this face. Too much automation will take away from the thing that makes Mafia Returns what it is. So many other games out there are automated and trust me... That gets really boring really fast.

Erm, face = fact...
