If The Mafia Is Forbiding Certain Tags, Be Very Careful what Mission You Take
Сrеdit gоеs to Pinstar !
The ideal week is one where you complete both your mafia mission and your district mission. This is often times not too hard to accomplish with one main exception.
Sometimes the mafia will give you a mission where they don’t want you to print certain tags.
The very first mission they give is an example of this, where they don’t want you to print Politics that week.
Make sure you’re mindful that your district mission, which consists of several tags that you NEED to print that week, doesn’t conflict with the mafia mission.
This is simple to avoid in the early game, but later on it becomes trickier. Later districts will require secondary bronze, silver and gold tags and each of those tags can come from different base story types. If the mafia is embargoing one of those types, you might be forced to complete either your district mission OR the mafia embargo but not both.
Not all district quests are hard. Some are very low risk, low reward but still open up parts of the map. My suggestion is to do these super-simple district quests whenever you have a mafia embargo looming to minimize the chance of betting locked out of finishing one or the other and thus maximizing your rewards.
I would like to be rewarded for not accepting quests from the Mafia because it’s a level of collaboration and I don’t want that. Many newspapers reported on the mafia so I think they liked to stay independent, not become a pawn.
There are two other npc factions you can side with.
Although in general they are a bit more tricky than the mafia one.
Mayor – wants a big outreach so Sales records and also steers you on what to and not to report on.
High society – all about high quality so no negative red tags and wants you to combo articles on the printer page for a more orderly news paper.
