It has been just over a week since Bootleggers received its most recent feature, and it appears that assignments will be here to stay for the long run. Quickly, players have integrated the update into their daily playing routines, even going as far as to brag in the game forum about their records of successes as well as to release their frustrations when failing these assignments. While the original addition of the feature was not without its faults, the Bootleggers’ staff has been quick to resolve any valid issues. Major issues that have now been resolved included things such as the consequences for failing being too severe, assignments being too ambiguous, and assignments being impossible because of a player’s limited game progress. Although the feature is still not without its fair share of kinks, for the most part it is fully operational and the staff has been making minor resolutions as needed.
Assuredly some people may still be unfamiliar with the feature; that being the case, a quick rundown of the dynamics of assignments can be found below:
Assignments are a supplement to the primary missions. The rewards for completion are much less staggering, but so is the time needed to complete them. There are two different types of assignments that can be completed: ones assigned by TonyT and ones assigned by ArturoMancini. The assignments offered by TonyT are significantly easier and have no consequences for failure, however the potential rewards for successfully completing the assignment are very minimal. The assignments offered by ArturoMancini, however, are much more difficult to complete but offer worthwhile rewards for completion. If these assignments are failed though, you will take damage to either your current health or protection. After completing or failing an assignment, there is short waiting period of two hours before the next assignment can be attempted.
If nothing else, this update reminds the community that Bootleggers is a dynamic game with updates coming periodically. The staff is always striving to enhance the game for the players, and for the time being the assignments update has sufficiently accomplished this goal.
