Auction Upgrade & Other Tweaks

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010

With the introduction of Porn Studio and the increasing use of Auctions to sell items to other gangsters we decided auctions needed to be adjusted to cope with the increasing demand on this feature. For this reason Auctions has undergone a few changes which will apply to any new auctions.

Auction changes implemented:
• Auctions can now have an Buy it now price – allows an item to be sold instantly at that price.
• All auctions will now end automatically once the auction timer has finished, if a valid bid is found the item is sold else returned to its original owner.
• Gangsters must set a starting bid amount for the auction.
• Gangsters have the opportunity to set a reserve price on their auction, this is unknown to the bidder and the auction will not be completed unless this reserve is met.

Other changes made to Street Crime:
• Hitlist now informs the gangster if any hit is taken care of, not just the final hit.
• Criminal record timer bars display red if you cannot attempt another of the crime.
• Flight timer has been fixed on the Criminal Record page.
• Organised Crime achievement unlock has been fixed and unlocks at the correct rank.
• Airport cities order is now the same whether you can or cannot fly.

We hope you continue to support us as we strive to become the best gangster game on the internet, we are working hard on new features, yes this includes kill, amongst other changes.

Stay tuned for more updates later today.

Street Crime v3 Progress

Monday, May 11th, 2009

Just to let you all no we are still working extremely hard on the new version of Street Crime. Although some of you may think its taking a while, we are effectively building the game again to ensure that it runs as smoothly as possible. Spending that extra time now will remove as many bugs as we can allowing for smoother gameplay.

We are now starting to receive some of the new graphics for the inside of the game which will improve the overall gameplay for you. The game is really starting to come together however we are still not giving a deadline yet as we are likely to have a closed BETA prior to releasing the game, again to remove as many bugs as possible before release.

Make sure you have told all your friends about us, pre-registered and added us on facebook and twitter. We are sure this version is going to much much improved on any other version of Street Crime you have ever played!

If you have any questions, we will respond to comments…

Stay tuned, Street Crime Staff.

Street Crime v3 In-game Interface

Saturday, March 28th, 2009

Street Crime Gangster Game is currently undergoing a major overhaul as many of you may already no. We are making steady progress with the outside interface (login, register etc) pretty much complete except a few fixes which needs to be made. We will also be looking to incorporate the outside game forum to the same style but we felt it was important to begin the important work inside first.

With this part of the revamp completed we have moved to the inside interface of the game. We have progressed well over the last week with this but its not quiet complete however we are now in a position to begin linking the game up to all the pages and making all the necessary fixes and changes that we have planned, more on this soon….

The new interface is a huge improvement on the current one and includes lots of little “quirks” which makes the interface quiet unique whilst at the same time bringing it up to date with the latest crazies found amongst other popular website. We have decided to keep the interface inside the game under wraps until further notice so you will have to stay patient.

Street Crime v3 Progress

Thursday, March 19th, 2009

Over the last 2 – 3 weeks we have been working hard on version 3 of Street Crime Gangster game. We are already extremely excited by how its developing and look forward to showing you all the hard work that has gone into the new version, we are certain that the wait is well worth it!

Progress to date:

So far we have been largely concentrating on the outside pages of Street Crime, this includes the registration process, forgotten password, a brand new game wiki, an external forum and a news blog which we will be using to keep everyone upto date with the latest events. We are 90% complete on this stage of development and hope to have this finished by the end of the week.

The outside pages will now work more smoothly making the sign up process, login process etc a much more user friendly experience. We are now using a emailing system within the Zend Framework which we hope will enable a higher success rate of receiving emails, something which has frustrated many a user in the past.

The blog and forum allows users to make comments on the game and view our latest updates in a much easier way, the blog even has RSS feeds which you can subscribe to which allow you to keep on top of all updates much more quickly.

Subscribe to Street Crime RSS feeds

Along with a more secure and bug free coding of the outside pages we also have new graphics. These new graphics are a huge improvement on what we have now and put us amongst the top games in terms of appearance. The new graphics will also flow through into the game itself giving us a much smoother transition between the outside interface and the game interface.

We are also working hard on  a marketing/advertising strategy which we hope will bolster the numbers of players playing the game to make the overall gaming experience a better one for everyone. Included in this advertising strategy is a much more improved search engine optimised website meaning we will be in a better position to draw people in from search engines such as google. Along with this we will be advertising the game on other websites in order to increase the number of players currently playing the game.

We have also setup a group on Facebook and an account on Twitter from which you can show your support to Street Crime. If you use either of these please make sure you add Street Crime:

Street Crime on Twitter

We dont currently have a deadline for the release of version 3 of Street Crime however we can assure you we are working hard to make this happen as quickly as possible.
