For every computer game available, on-line or offline, there are secret codes or cheats to get players ahead in the game quickly. Google "Facebook Mafia War cheats" and the reader will be rewarded with a barrage of sites claiming to have the secret cheats or codes.
There are some scripts out there to automate a few actions of the game. One script touts that it automatically sends friend invites to players in the fight window. It may or may not work all the time. Players can advance faster by strategizing instead of hunting cheats.
Grow the Family
In Mafia Wars, players form mob families by inviting other Facebook members to join. The more family members a mob has, the stronger they are. The first and ultimately most important key to advancing is to keep the mob family growing. This can be done in a couple of ways:
1 Players invite all of their friends to join
2 Link to other players on one of the many ‘add me’ pages in FB, thousand of players network on these pages
3 Reciprocate when players join their mob family – Mafia War players can be members of more than one mob
Family Defense
Family members need to be able to defend themselves. It is up to the Boss to make sure each team member has defensive tools. As the family accumulates wealth, the boss should make sure each member has weapons, vehicles, etc.
* Initially, funds will be low, the Boss should focus on growing wealth in order to take care of family
* As wealth is accumulated, Boss should purchase each member of family more weapons
Increase the Wealth
Each Mob Boss will have different strategies for accumulating wealth. Some families focus on more jobs and payouts while other families are more involved in property acquisitions. These strategy tips will help increase the family wealth regardless of the ultimate goal:
* In the early levels of game play, purchase properties with a low investment cost and decent return rate. Mafia Mike’s Delis are an excellent choice; however, the number available for purchase is dependent on the number of family members.
* As the money increases purchase high end properties – the key is to purchase as many as possible at one time. Once a purchase is made, the price increases for the next purchase.
* Beware of the upkeep cost of some high end weapons and vehicles. Make sure money flow is sufficient to cover the costs.
Using Points Strategically
With each level up, players are given reward points by the Godfather. These can be used to increase a variety of attributes, such as attack, defense, energy and more. Where to apply these points depends on the Mafia Boss’ strategy.
* Knocking off rivals and going for kills: this strategy requires using reward points to increase attack, defense, and stamina attributes. This allows the player to knock off other mobs and engage in more fights while staying strong themselves.
* Money Accumulation: this strategy requires putting most reward points into the energy level. Energy enables the family to do more jobs, thus acquiring more money.
Mafia War players also have the option of buying reward points from the Godfather, if they so choose. Additionally, there are often special weapons or incentives available that can only be purchased with reward points.
Mafia Wars is an extremely popular game that has become the rage around the world. Players who are looking for shortcuts to bypass the actually playing of the game might not find what they are looking for, however, employing a few secrets to advancing their mob can prove to be just as valuable.
1. Play a Maniac. The Jobs are a much better source of experience and cash then fighting and this way you earn more of both instead of just more cash.
2. {{{Don't add to your mafia right away!}}} I can not stress this enough! You want a Mafia Mikes and a Bloody Chainsaw for every 2 members of your mafia but the amount of members you need for another one is based on your current members. That means if you buy a Bloody Chainsaw when you have 12 members, accept 8 members, buy another BC, then you will need 22 members to buy another one instead of the 16 you would have needed.
In short accept 2 members at a time and buy both before accepting more.
3. Put all of your upgrade points into energy. Fighting might be cool but it won't level you quickly. Every time you level your energy is reset so with high energy you can do the harder and therefore more valuable missions plus you won't have to wait as long to do more of them. You will be amazed how fast you level this way.
4. Even though fighting is not your best source of income it can be good. As long as your mafia is well equipped (I'll get to that in a moment) you should be able to beat anyone with an equal or lesser sized mafia. You get the same amount of experience and cash no matter how big their mafia is so don't be afraid to pick on the little guys. If you gain the maximum amount of cash when you beat someone 70,000 you should not only keep attacking them but bookmark their profile and try attacking them later after they are healed.
5. There are 2 ways of equipping your mafia. Looting and buying. The higher the mission the better the loot and sometimes you loot in fights but to be safe you should buy enough equipment to cover every member of your mafia. With your high energy to do jobs and buying Mafia Mikes' every 2 members you will have plenty of cash.
Weapons: Bloody Chainsaw is a great weapon and half of your mafia should have one. The other half should be equipped with Chain Guns. Once you start looting .50 Caliber Rifle or better you can use it in place of a Chain Gun.
Armor: Not only is Body Armor the best armor you can buy but it is the first thing you should buy enough of to cover all of your members. Other items you might buy as you earn cash but these are cheap.
Cars: The weapons and armor are cheaper and therefore a priority but when you are rolling in cash the Towncar is the best you can buy.
(There may be better things to buy but not until you are level 99.)
6. Avoid the Hitlist like the plague. While putting hits on people is fun it only draws attention to yourself and there's nothing to stop a level 100+ whacking you just for kicks. If someone takes a hit out on you you'll die and lose some experience but let it end there. You want to stay below the radar and gather your forces quietly
7. Spend your cash on items for your mafia whenever possible but don't buy more then you need. If you have cash and nothing to buy bank it. The 10% you lose is usually better then repeatedly losing 70,000 from someone farming you for cash.
8. The best jobs for exp and usually cash are:
Levels 1-4 Auto Theft
5-8 Bank Heist
9-12 Museum Break-in
13-17 Wiretap the Cops
18+ I'm currently level 22 and Wiretap the Cops is still the best choice.
9. And of course send me an invite if you want another mafia member :)
I hope this helps some of you who are feeling lost.
