Bangkok Consumables and Where You Can Find Them

One of the most enjoyable parts of running a blog on any subject is interacting with readers through email. This blog is no exception and I do my best to either respond to my readers through return email or in the case of multiple questions on the same subject, through a blog post to allow everyone to benefit from the answer.

This week alone I have received 4 email messages asking about consumables in Bangkok so I thought I would post a short message today that gives everyone information of them.

  • Pirates

    Pirates are acquired from the Bangkok Business “Privacy Operation”. In order to open up this business you will need to master the “Secure A Pirate Vessel” job which is in Bangkok Episode 3 that is aptly named Pirate.

    You will need approximately 619 Pirates to complete Bangkok. If you plan to loot Lloyds Spectres you will need more.

    10 Pirates may also be purchased in the Marketplace for the cost of 20 Reward Points.

  • Drug Shipments

    Drug Shipments come from the business “Drug Smuggling Ring” which may be unlocked by mastering the job “Buy Some Chemicals On The Black Market” which may be found in Bangkok Episode 4, Commandant.

    About 555 Satellite phones are required to complete Bangkok.

    You may also purchase 10 Drug Shipments from the Marketplace for 20 Reward Points.

  • Satellite Phones

    Unlike those consumables mentioned above, satellite phones are drop items. They may be found by completing the job “Hijack A Boat Load Of Electronics” in Bangkok Episode 3.

    You are going to need about 470 Drug Shipments in order to complete the Bangkok expansion.

    Satellite Phones are also for sale in the Marketplace in units of 10 for 20 Reward Points.

I hope that this detailed report on Bangkok consumables helps everyone finish Bangkok and be ready for Las Vegas.

Mafia Wars Bangkok Episodes 6 and 7

7
May/10
1

The folks over at Zynga are keeping the pressure on and are very nearly ready to release Mafia Wars Bangkok Episodes 6 and 7. While Zynga may lack in some areas, I must admit that they do a good job of keeping the content coming.

Here is the Zynga text regarding the new episodes.

“Thought you’d finished with Bangkok? Think again. Return to the Far East for two all-new episodes for Bangkok, where you’ll need to fight to re-establish your hold as a major Yakuza and Triad boss. Extent you influence and consolidate your power base. It’s only a matter of time until you will be the greatest criminal in Asia, and you’ll need to overthrow the Thai government to protect your criminal empire. These episodes will only unlock after you have completed episodes 5a and 5b.

Watch out though – power has a way of bringing some unwanted attention from some shadowy forces… With completely new jobs and Mastery items, there are new challenges and prizes that await. Are you ready to conquer the mysteries of Thailand?”

If you would prefer to read this text for yourself and see the graphics that go along with it all you need to do is mouse over the “? Help” area at the top of your Mafia Wars page and click on “Coming Soon.”

It is unclear if the additional Bangkok episodes will be released before Las Vegas but if I had to place a wager I would bet that these episodes do indeed come first. Many players have already mastered everything there is to do in the game and it is my belief that the new episodes are fillers to retain players until Las Vegas is ready.

As you can see from the official text, mastery of both episodes 5a and 5b will be required in order to unlock the new content. This requires that you get all warm and fuzzy with both the Yakuza and Triad. Next week I will give you some instruction on exactly how to do that.

With two new Bangkok episodes on the way you will need to hit the jobs list fast and hard and discover how to be on a first name basis with both factions. If you have not finished Bangkok yet get started so you are ready when the new content hits.

Mafia Wars Bangkok – The Yakuza

17
Mar/10
0

Mafia Wars Bangkok pits the Chinese Triad against the Japanese Yakuza and you will have to choose a side. While the game is fictional the groups that are featured in it are quite real.

The Yakuza which are also known as “gokudo” are members of the organized crime syndicates in Japan. Law enforcement often calls them “Boryokudan” which literally means “violence group”. The Yakuza members refer to themselves as “ninkyo dantai” which translates to “chivalrous organizations.”

The origin of most modern Yakuza organizations is derived from two classifications emerging in the mid Edo Period.

Tekiya were peddlers of stolen, shoddy, or illicit goods. This group was considered one of the lowest groups in the Edo. As they began to form organizations they took over administrative duties relating to commerce. During Shinto festivals the Tekiya set up stalls and provided security. Merchants who had stalls at the event had to pay a fee for the stall as well as protection money.

Bakuto were those who were involved in illicit gambling.

As gamblers the Bakuto were of much lower social status than traders and business people. Gambling was of course illegal in Japan but the Bakuto made use of abandoned temples as well as many other locations to host games all over the country.

The Yakuza, like their counterparts all over the world are purveyors of nearly every type of crime that one might think of.

When the Yakuza formed they adopted the traditional structure of the oyabun-kobun.

Yakuza Hierarchy

Family Boss

syabun

Administration

First Lieutenant

Second Lieutenant

saiko-komon

wakagashira

shateigashira

Law Advisor

Big Brothers
kyodai

shingiin

Accountants

Little Brothers
shatei

kaikei

Like other criminal organizations the Yakuza have many superstitions and rituals. One such ritual, Yubitsume involves the cutting of fingers when a member commits an offense that the leadership deems serious. The ritual starts with the removal of the little finger and moves up to the next finger for each successive offense.

Yakuza like their Russian brethren in Moscow utilize tattoos. While the Russian mafiya and Vory use individual tattoos the Yakuza often display full-body designs.

Principal Yakuza Families

Yamaguchi-gumi

This family was created in 1915 and is the largest and comprises approximately 45% of the Yakuza in Japan. The family has more than 45,000 members and is divided into 720 clans.

Sumiyoshi-rengo

With around 10,000 members the Sumiyoshi-rengo is the second largest family in the Yakuza with 177 clans.

Inagawa-kai

This family has approximately 7,400 members and 313 clans.

Aizukotetsu-kai

This family is based in Kyoto with 4,500 members.

Toua Yuai Jigyo Kumiai

This family was founded in 1948 and is made up of about 1,000 members and 6 clans.

I enjoy Mafia Wars and I enjoy history. In a round about way Mafia Wars is an excellent way to learn about the criminal organizations of the world. In New York we were introduced the traditional mafia found in the United States, in Cuba we were treated to organized crime Caribbean style, Moscow brought us the Vory and Mafiya, and the Bangkok expansion has introduced us to the Triad and Yakuza.

While it is fun to play the game you should take a little time to learn about the factions that fill the roles.

How To Work Both Factions In Mafia Wars Bangkok

11
Mar/10
0

With the release of the Bangkok expansion Zynga tossed a monkey wrench into the mix in the form of reputation based businesses. We were introduced to factions in the Moscow expansion in which we had to choose a side to fight for. Well in the Bangkok expansion we not only have a choice to make in doing jobs but in businesses as well. With a faction based expansion one might think that there is no way to become trusted with both but that thinking in wrong. Zynga stated the following in their Mafia Wars Bangkok FAQ.

“Q: Can I max out my reputation with both factions in Bangkok?

A: Yes, you will be able to reach the ‘Allied’ reputation level with both the Triads and Yakuza. During the beta phase, you may want to leave at least one choice point job unmastered in case you want to change factions. We plan to implement a better solution to switching factions after reaching Diamond mastery before the final release”

Today you are going to learn how to get started maxing out both reputations.

As it stands at the moment you cannot reach the maximum of 1500 reputation with both sides but you can end up with one faction at 1500 and the other at 1499 simply by doing jobs and fighting other players.

To get started you need to work both sides of the fence so to speak. Start out doing jobs for one side and then switch to the other. Completing a job for the Yakuza will award you with +3 Yakuza reputation and -1 Triad. Doing jobs for the Triad is just the reverse. You are going to do a great deal of bouncing back and forth to get you reputation to near maximum levels.

Another way to work both factions is through fighting players of the opposing faction. When you fight a player of the opposing faction and win you are rewarded with +2 reputation to the faction you are fighting for and -1 for the opposing faction. Using this method is easy if you set up a “whipping boy” character for each reputation. This method requires that you create 2 new accounts and level each until they can go to Bangkok and then make one Yakuza and the other Triad. You can then fight them repeatedly to work either reputation without worrying about losing.

As stated above you can not max out both factions using either of these methods. One will be 1500 and the other 1499. The way to finally reach 1500 in both is to use Godfather Points to purchase +50 points for the 1499 point reputation. Maxing out both Triad and Yakuza reputations is indeed possible.

How To Get Your Hands On Multiple Bangkok Mastery Items

10
Mar/10
0

I learned of a way that you can use to get multiple mastery items in Mafia Wars Bangkok and thought that I should pass it on to you.

First, the episode that you working in must be fully mastered with level 4 completed. If the episode is not complete this trick will not work.

  • Go to the Bangkok jobs section, Commandant episode 4
  • Travel to the New York jobs section and go to the Enforcer tier.
  • Pick any job and repeat it very quickly around 15 or 20 times.
  • Now quickly return to Bangkok to take advantage of the lag to get a chance at getting a Bangkok mastery item.

The whole idea of this method is to take advantage of internet and server lag and trick Zynga into giving you a Bangkok mastery item for a very low cost job. To get the most out of this method I would suggest that it be done during high traffic times to take the best advantage of the system.

It is said that this method works for Bangkok episode one when using New York tier one and Bangkok episode two with New York episode two and so on. I have no first hand knowledge of this or even if it works at all.

As a responsible blogger I do need to warn you however that this trick does not work for everyone or even all of the time. In the past Zynga has indeed “rolled back” accounts that have taken advantage of such vulnerabilities in their system. User beware.

Mafia Wars Bangkok Businesses

3
Mar/10
0

If you have played Mafia Wars for any length of time you have seen the way businesses started out in New York. In the beginning you purchased Mafia Mike’s because it was the standard that could not be robbed. In order to increase your business income you had to purchase plots of land and construct various types of businesses and then purchase insurance to protect them.

The Cuba expansion introduced businesses that could not be robbed. Cuban businesses did not work in the way that New York businesses did. Instead of purchasing property and developing it we were given businesses that we simply upgraded for more money.

This business model remained through the Moscow expansion.

Now we have the Bangkok Expansion. In the orient we were presented with two types of business. Those that can be purchased and upgraded just like Cuba and Moscow.

  • Fighting Fish Arena
  • Cockfighting Pen
  • Tourist Guide Scam
  • Gambling Den

Normal purchasable businesses are enhanced by reputation based businesses.

  • Gun Running Operation
  • Yaa Baa Parlor

Unlike the other four businesses which can be purchased for baht and produce baht the faction based businesses produce boosts that are used in playing the game.

  • Black Market Ammo
    +32 Attack Skill
  • Hyper Alert Sentry
    +32 Fight Defense Skill

The two distinct types of businesses in Bangkok is an interesting twist to the norm that we have come to know. You can take advantage of the baht earning businesses as well as the faction based ones. If you play your cards right you can not only own fully upgraded standard businesses but BOTH of the faction based ones as well.
