Maybe it's just me... But I experienced it became a tad more difficult lately to solve AI cases. More & more suspects seem to clam up right from the start and the townies can't come up with names so the list is not complete. More & more cases with 3 or even 4 PE suspects clammed up. Or what about a case with 4 threads and 3 suspects referring to the tailor for their alibi's...

My surveillance skill seems to be of futile use now....


Is this in any way related to the upcoming new features (avoidance of building up too many unspent skill points)?????


Everyone: NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

It's a moot point until someone from on high says to us, yes I've made it a bit harder. And they always do. No-one can say we're not well informed or kept up to date with game changes.
For all we know this is just a domino effect where we're all jumping at shadows looking for an excuse for not solving cases. (having just solved 7 or 8 in a row, I'm rethinking my stanse, can you tell...)
You raise a good point though roamie about not making the game too hard for 'lone wolf' players because they don't have the option to change their clothes like Agency players do. Maybe the game update will cover that eventuality too?!
Let's wait and see what the Sleuth Gods say and do :D

I've been working a lot of cases lately and haven't noticed much of a difference myself. I'd be interested to see what Ben and Sunny have to say on the subject, but I would hazard a guess that its just a coincidence. People who have stockpiled skill points already have them all anyways :)

I love coincidences :) They always make me wonder why they happen...

They happen, usually, because I hit a little button. And then your life goes to you know where in a handbasket Bad Ass.

Oh yes. Time to push the button again. Shiny. Little. Button.

Can't say I've noticed any difference. I seem to get a mix of cases some a harder to solve than others no more than usual.

Why oh Why must the Slueth Gods torture me so? I have tried to be a good and charming detective. I have my tough skills, I have my charm skills, I have my smart skills, I have Judge of Character, I have surveillance but they still insist on tormenting me by having EVERY suspect have the same alibi and insist on making everyone clam.

I guess I can just sit here and wait to see what the Slueth Gods in their omniscient wisdom will bestow among us on August 28th. **Heavy Sigh**

Well since everyone is telling it, im having a hell of a BAD week, People are claming oddly often enough, all the same alibi, when i get as luck as to get an answer for the alibi question, and it isnt lack of skills, cause last week i was able to solve all of my ten AI cases without the help of my agency, even if most of days i get their help with at least two cases(considering i went on all AI cases), but come on, solving all my cases on AI level isnt luck, as for solving just half of it isnt bad luck either, i think the game is getting more difficult......
But then again thats just my opinion....
