Virus Upgrade
The virus levels have been completely rewritten from scratch. Many will notice that their virus levels are higher than they were as a result. It is now much easier to level, and requires far less credit to do so.
Auto-Return Gifting
If you send a gift in the chat to Tony, he will automatically send one back! This works exactly the same way as if you were to send a gift to someone & they sent you the same gift back, making it easier to level up your viruses without having to find someone to trade with.
Daily Gifts
You will now get 1 Entry Level Vault Code per toon every day you log into the game. These can be used in the Bank Vault to get 1 of many different prizes, ranging from free Favor Points, free Chat Credits, Limited Edition items or even those elusive Ultra Rare items!
Automatic Happy Hours
Tony will now start a Happy Hour if there are at least 3 unique users online. He checks every 15 minutes and will start one if he sees 3 Unique users on at the same time. After that, another one will not run for 3 hours. Happy Hours grant unlimited energy refills to VIPs while the Happy Hour is running.
Flash Sales
The Flash Sale system automatically generates sale packs that can include any combination of Limited Edition Equipment, Vault Codes, Hired Guns and/or Energy. Flash Sales last for 24 hours or until they sell out, at which point a new one will be generated automatically. Flash Sales are priced at a discount of the normal retail price if you bought the items individually.
Tony’s Bounties
Tony’s bounties are now time limited. They will disappear if not collected within 15 minutes. This change was made to avoid having bounties sit on the Hit List for days or weeks at a time and only applies to bounties issued by Tony.
New Security
Due to abuse, we have blocked all known Proxy and VPN services. If you use a Proxy or VPN service, you will need to disable it to play Mobsters United.

Someone can only be removed from the Top Mob if it’s been at least 24 hours since that slot was last used to send energy. Regular users have 3 Top Mob slots, VIPs have 6 slots.
Henchmen introduced
A new category of equipment has been introduced, Henchmen. Henchmen are separate from weapons, armor or vehicles. Some can be acquired for mob cash like any other piece of equipment, others are rewarded by the Mission Mastery system.
