Everybody as excited as me, seeing the link in city hall in terms of a MAJOR upgrade to Sleuth????

We gotta love Ben! YAY!

Woohoo!!!

*jumps for joy*

Any upgrade is welcomed, so this is great news indeed. This could be the biggest ever addition to Sleuth since the game was launched. There's even a new name - "Sleuth: Cities of Mystery". I wonder what impact the upgrades will bring.

Imagine: New Cities, New Equipment, New Skills, New Hunts! Isn't all that what we have been asking for all this while?

I wonder how the travelling between cities is gonna work. After all, Shanghai is a pretty LONG way from New York.

This wasn't mentioned, but there won't be new agency properties, would there?

This is SOOOO cool! I never thought Ben would release them all at once, but, now that I think about it, it is better that way. Really cool idea Ben! I love!

Some questions for Ben:

1. Will the new skills work only in the new cities?
2. Same as number 1 except for equipment.
3. Will the old factions still be around?
4. Will agencies be drastically affected? Can you say how?

Jojo,

Not going to answer #1 or #2...

#3 Yes, there will be 6 factions total, although none of them will be present in every city.

#4 Agencies will be headquartered in one city. When members of the agency are traveling in another city, they won't have access to some of the agency features, like the locker or case files. There will be reasons that members will want to travel to other cities however. Existing agencies will start out based in New York, but it will be possible to move an agency to a different city.

Ok, cool!

Will only subbed detectives be allowed to change cities? If so, what will non-subbed detectives in agencies do?

Jan-25-2005 16:12

Wayne, I may add some new properties that are city specific. Probably would not add any that are necessarily better than existing ones, just ones that are more appropriate for the other cities.

Great, I can't wait to start my postcard collection

Sounds very promising Ben!
