My 'great' brothel with all the upgrades and staffed with 20 8/10 whores nets me $800-3000/night while a single street whore on the Dark Alley nets me $1000. What gives?

Found a bug.

I decided to take over the bikers. During the fight I wanted to lose on purpose to see what happens, by constantly pressing "Defend yourself".
But it seems that I am invinsible and also I gain "dirty cash". Before this fight I was at around 500k and after repeatedly pressing "Defend yourself" I now have 1 million of "dirty cash"

To be honest, i just haven't properly playtested the brothel when it's at top popularity with the best girls. Still, profits won't be high if the pop is low, even with top whores. I'll look into it, thanks for the feedback.

It's not a bug - the biker leader has a special ability to throw money at you. But yeah, it's definitely poorly balanced, since even 9 combat is enough to facetank it. Will change it, thanks for the report.

Thanks for your reply! Here's some more feedback about the brothel (at the risk of sounding a bit whiny).

Brothel_pop is such a grind with +1 per day compared with nc_pop's +1 or +2 per day and the occasional stripper pole boost. Perhaps working at the brothel should boost your popularity or we could start an advertising campaign on the PC or modify the rates like the nightclub? Also, it'd be nice to be able to rename the brothel.

Also, my brothel with 75 popularity (yes, I eventually cheated the popularity lol) and 30 8/10 girls would generate $8,000-40,000 per night. That range is a bit too wide, if you ask me.

But all in all, I really enjoyed your game. Keep up the good work!


Edit: Btw, for tuning's sake, I just noticed my 100/100 brothel staffed with all 9/10 girls (do 10/10 girls even exist?) 'does not meet the highest expectations'.

I'll fix that, thanks.

Have you used the quick start? I haven't changed anything about the hackers themselves, but i'll double-check if the quick start interferes with their unlock. I might've overlooked that.

Hmmmright, i'll change the hint for the vent stuff and add a skip option for the minigame. The alternate route does have a scene, though it’s not a very unique one.
When you said you were doing a casino heist I was expecting like, sleep with the casino manager to get a key code, get caught by a couple guards and have to fight/seduce your way out while your gang makes off with the loot, etc.

I also thought th casino was going to reward way more than it did. And be a longer process. It seemed like something that would be more complicated and rewarding by nature. But maybe you're planning to do that with a bank heist?

The cash grab mini game I think is only hard because of the speed of it. Though I'm not crazy about timed triggers anyway, there was another game I played where the scenes would give you additional prompts if you waited long enough and I always thought that was poor design. The truck robbery still netted me way more than everything else it seemed.

I didn't use quick start. It was just normal game. I handed in the aphrodisiac and they sent me off to the mafia, but there was no additional dialogue with the mafia.

What is the hint for the vent? It just said I need to find something to open it.

I did like the fact random groping that happens, that's a cool feature. It's like the random limo etc events that happen in parts of the city. I think adding more randomness in encounters like that makes it more fun. I still have issues funding my gang after I get a certain size, but it seems like no one else has that problem. I ended up making way way more money before making the gang so I was able to basically buy the club right away, which made a pretty big difference.

I noticed that if I have I lockpick, and it gives me a prompt to leave, it takes one energy. But if the prompt says I need to run, it takes all my energy. On the other hand, getting caught will only take 2. So if I have to run it's often better to just get caught.

Fair. I’ll add something to speed it up. You can also promote your brothel through investor NPCs, but yeah, it's def not enough.

Yeah, looks like i really messed up the math there. I’ll fix it for the next version, thanks for pointing it out!

But it's pretty much the same thing that's in the game, just under other names.
I also thought th casino was going to reward way more than it did. And be a longer process. It seemed like something that would be more complicated and rewarding by nature.
Up to 300k looks fine. With 12 cunning and some yellow skillchecks i've got ~350k, though yeah, it depends on rng, maybe even too much.
But maybe you're planning to do that with a bank heist?
Not really, not gonna lie. Though casino heist feels very pushed and illogical, not something i'd want to repeat.

Mafia don't unlock hackers though, you can get them either through distributor or by buying info from bikers.

During the casino job, if you find the right room, there's a hint that you need to prep something to toss in. Either craft with chemists in your lab or ask an NPC with chemist job.
I noticed that if I have I lockpick, and it gives me a prompt to leave, it takes one energy. But if the prompt says I need to run, it takes all my energy. On the other hand, getting caught will only take 2. So if I have to run it's often better to just get caught.
That's the point, yeah

At what level and rep points will the Cartel let you have the Harbor I'm at Big Boss with 21675 rep points and he still wont give over control I even captured Downtown and the Suburbs? Also I'm producing drugs and have a large stockpile but my end of day reports say that I don't have any drugs in my stash for my dealers.

25000 rep. It's one of the things i forgot to attach to a specific rep rank, so it's tied to a magic number. I'll change that.
And drugs for dealers are taken from the stash, not the inventory. But you can set it so they'll take drugs from the inventory instead.
