![]() The second method is to take over a building held by someone else. This tends to happen only after you have full control over a neighborhood as the other method is generally much more cost efficient. The first of these is simply buying abandoned buildings that are for sale. Getting new businesses (called rackets) happens in one of two ways. These are largely related to the sort of criminal enterprises that the historical figure they were based on specialized in, which is a nice touch. These are mostly focused on the upgrade lines that are common among businesses, though some of them provide a raw increase in their overall income for some building types. You also need guards for your businesses to protect against attempts by other bosses to seize your territory.Įach boss has their own pair of economic bonuses that helps differentiate how they approach the economics of the game. You can purchase upgrades to decrease the chance of raids, but this will slow down your ability to build up your economic expansion. The problem of course is that the word of mouth needed to attract customers also increases attention from the police, thus the chance for them to raid you. Having more people in your business increases your income, and gives you the ability to pay your gangsters and the costs your businesses accrue while leaving enough money to enable for expansion and miscellaneous expenses. There are building upgrades that help with this, and this is reinforced by having a business that produces the kind of alcohol preferred by the clientele in the neighborhood. ![]() The most basic of these is making, sure enough, individuals are continually using your businesses to maintain a profit. There are three major aspects that you will be managing in pursuit of this: your criminal empire, combat, and relationships with other factions.Įmpire management is largely neighborhood-focused, with each one having a number of interacting factors that a player must take into account in order to keep things afloat. The game provides some suggestions, in the form of a robust quest system, but it is ultimately you that is pushing towards achieving your overall goal: becoming the kingpin of Chicago. What you are doing at any given moment is driven by what you, as a player believes is important. Here's how I have my mouse and gamepad set up for Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2: Left analog stick: Move forward/backward and strafe left/right L1 Button: Lower stance L2 Button: Sprint Start Button: Night vision 元 Button: Reload weapon D-Pad Up: Stance up D-Pad Down: Go prone D-Pad Left: Use item D-Pad Right: Cycle weapons Left Mouse Button: Fire weapon Right Mouse Button: Optical sights/zoom Middle Mouse Button/Wheel: Issue squad commands Auxillary Mouse Button: Cycle fire mode Note: Sorry for getting carried away here, but I hope I helped you in some form or fashion.Empire of Sin, a game developed by Romero Studios and published by Paradox Interactive, is a hybrid strategy turn-based tactical RPG where you take the role of one of fourteen historical gang bosses in Chicago seeking to gain control of the city’s underworld and fighting off other gangsters – all while staying one step ahead of the law.Įmpire of Sin has a bit of a free-form style. I also use the gamepad with RTS games - mostly just using the left analog stick rather than the keyboard's arrow keys to scroll the screen. I can access all of the the buttons on the left side of the gamepad with my thumb and index finger. I hold the gamepad in my left hand and the mouse in my right hand. Because I'm clumsy with a keyboard, I like to use a gamepad/mouse combo with PC FPS. I typically use the left analog stick for character movement, however. ![]() You can assign four different keyboard keystrokes to the D-pad, or use it for character movement if you wish. The gamepad is very flexible in that you can assign any keyboard key to any button (or the D-pad) on the gamepad. Furthermore, you can assign zoom-in and zoom-out to up/down on the D-pad. With the Rumblepad 2 you can set up the analog sticks to emulate the mouse X and Y axis, and you can assign the left and right mouse buttons to the gamepad's shoulder buttons, or any of the other buttons on the gamepad for that matter. If you have a programmable controller (I have a Logitech Rumblepad 2), you can program it yourself to work with the game, but I can tell you right now that it's going to feel awfully clumsy relative to a mouse. ![]()
