I've been playing and,after a while,began to think of a few ideas to incooperate.

WE Contacts:Truth be told,I know they're useful for runaway suspects and hints to which suspect may know who the killer is,but honestly,I feel like they could be of more use.One difficulty I have with suspects is the clamming:There is nothing worse than having high charm/tough and seeing 'You were not able to persuade him/her to be more cooperative.'I tear my hair out everytime I see that,especially on the first question.I feel like the WE contacts should get an ability like...Personal Favor:Your WE contact will go and try to persuade your chosen suspect to become more cooperative.It might make it unfair,but honestly,it's horrible having low smarts/high charm or tough and not being able to analyze the evidence,or having higher smarts/low charm or tough and having a sea of clams in your face.Just give the WE contacts a small chance to persuade your chosen contact.I know Surveillance is there,but Surveillance requires Smarts,and by increasing that,once again,sea of clams.You could make it that the WE contact can only persuade anyone who claims to have an alibi with them.

Cities:I think it would be nice to have a few more cities,maybe 1 or 2 more,that's it.Would be nice to see either Moscow or Tokyo.I mean Shanghai is nice,but I would LOVE to see Tokyo or Osaka.Even another African city,like Cape Town.

Well, SOMETHING ought to be done with skill points, and that seems as good an idea as any other I've seen.

As a green green GREEN sleuth, one of my first posts here was about there not being enough places to dump surplus money. Now as a much more experienced detective I know that surplus cash as less of a problem than surplus skill points (although I still have waaay to much cash lying around).

I'd love to see more opportunities to spend both cash and skill points. Exchanging skill points for favors or even just extra daily cases sounds great to me.

Keeping on subject of posting what you'd like to see....

I hear ya Night Queen, I have 822 unspent skill points and I've already got all the women's shoes from Cairo hehe ;)

Maybe we can get something along the lines of how the shoes were...maybe accessories or something to buy/collect with our skill points?!?

I think a good addition to the game is a safe in the apartment, or an account in the bank. I'd love to be able to put some money away when I need to, cause if someone has to reactivate themselves after 3 FA's, it would be nice to save the money away in the apartment/bank instead of losing most of it.
