Mafia Live Strategy and lots of family codes
|
I couldn't find any threads relating to good strategy for Mafia Live.
Just a bunch of people adding family codes which, while I'm guilty of
wasting hours this myself, takes forever.
But from my almost-level-55 of game play I have picked up on a few things:
1. The more family you have, the more likely you are to win a fight.
2. Number of family members far outweigh your personal attack and defense strength numbers.
3. It is good to stock up on AK semi-autos (hundreds of them!). They
cost nothing in upkeep and add good defense and attack bonuses to
everyone in your mob. You have the chance of beating someone with a lot
more family members if your own militia is well armed.
Taking those three thing to heart, I have set out to make as much money
as possible. The way to do this...real estate and energy points. Follow
these simple steps:
1. Put as many Zen points towards energy as you can. All your points,
every point...increase your energy so you can do more jobs. Do more
jobs to get more money to buy more real estate to make even more money
to buy even more real estate.
2. Only do the job with the greatest return (meaning maximize the ratio
of $$$/energy points). Which for anyone less than level 25, is "Take a
Cop for Ransom." Notably, this is also second to "Bank Robbery" for
highest Experience/Energy ratio.
3. Buy real estate...lots of real estate. I wake up every morning to
find millions in my bank account without doing anything. To understand
which real estate to buy you need to calculate your rate of return, or
(Income/Upfront cost). Since the cost of a piece of real estate
increases for each one you have in possession, this value drops every
time you buy. A good rule of thumb is to buy anything that has a return
rate >1%.
The Night Club, Commercial Building, Shopping District, and Fantasy
Resort all have initial (best) rates of return of 0.88, 0.95, 0.72, and
0.92%, respectively. Meaning don't buy any of these until you have at
least 16 Shacks, 12 Hot Dog Stands, and a similar amount of Gas
Stations and Jewelry Stores (I haven't yet reached or calculated the 1%
break point for these). To do so will be wasting money.
...As I have progressed in the game I have found I just use the Cop for
Ransom job only and have progressed from only owning fee free things to
M16's and BMW's and Kevlar Vests as well as the Town Cars and AK's, but I have
found if all members of your family have at least one of each ( car,
gun, and armor ) then it goes further than owning a few missiles boats
and body armors that don't outfit all.
