I played the demo before the patch came out and the sandbox mode wasn't very good at all but even with the major upgrade patch the sandbox nmode is still not very good. Let me explain. First off the maps are still very small, there is still not enough to do in the sandbox mode, there should be more types of businesses for you to build.You should be able to recruit your own gang members without having to select from a predefined list of men.There needs to be more sandbox maps then just what's selectable.
The one biggest issue is that there is still no editor for creating your own maps for omerta. They still have a long ways to go to make this game better. You can really crank up the difficulty.
Who ever said that 2 hours went by and they saw the gang only take over one buisiness, must have had things low. Put it on the hardest main setting, then up the agressive and expansion to max.
00 Best Albums Of The 1. Electronic music left the academies and the novelty charts and started to infect rock and pop wholesale.
And if you havent had 4-5 attacks in the first 20 mins you must not have set up any other businesses. One time i started a game, had 8 places set up quickly, next thing i know 4 of my places are now under rival gangs. All in about 15 mins. I saw one of two drive-bys, and the option for a ground fight.
