It has attracted millions, and is attracting more by the hour. The game involves good amount of strategy, fun, entertainment and thinking. This article lets you understand what it takes to dominate the game, play like the pros and get to the top of the strategy.

Facebook Mafia Wars: The Intro

Facebook, as you might know, is already the most famous and most populated social networking site. There are huge features available on Facebook and gaming is one which is indisputably the most famous. Mafia Wars specifically takes the cake, however and has a really huge fan-following.

Because of the huge base and requirement, a large number of Mafia Wars faq, groups, forum etc have come up. Not only this, but there are plenty of apps designed to keep a tab on the game even when you are away. Mafia Wars groups on Facebook or even elsewhere are still growing.

You will need a good amount of strategy if you want to dominate the game. The most important reason for this is that the game has been designed with such strategies in mind and unlike other simpleton games, this one requires good patience and thinking. Even still, some people find it enormously difficult to dominate the game. In order to help such people, the concept of cheats and codes arose.

Facebook Mafia Wars Cheat Codes – Is There Any?

There is actually no way to cheat in the game. There are no cheats, no codes or hacks that can get you to the top level. There is only one way. But the interesting thing is, you can cut down a lot on the learning curve, as well as learn some of the best expert tips so that you can level up faster than your competition.

Forums are the best place to hang out if you need good help from the pros. Lots of people have dominated the game purely based out of the experience imparted to them by the experts in the field!

Tips For Developing Facebook App Games https://track.adsformarket.com/stacy?/tips-for-developing-facebook-app-games/ https://track.adsformarket.com/stacy?/tips-for-developing-facebook-app-games/#respond Thu, 23 Jan 2014 17:46:52 +0000 http://nicheblogs.nicheblogsfactory.net/facebookapps/?p=307 The Facebook Platform has created a whole new market for online games and start ups such as the Social Games Network (SGN) and Zynga. I wrote about developing Facebook Applications a while ago as a overview of my experiences. Some of my apps are games and some are not – I’m a game developer so I prefer making games.

While going through my blog traffic data, I saw search terms specifically about developing games on Facebook. That leads me to believe that someone is looking for information about that. I have some of that knowledge to share!

I generally make games for Facebook using Flash and ActionScript. There really isn’t a good way to make really interactive games using web languages and Flash is fairly powerful for 2D casual game experiences. You can find a list of the Facebook games that I’ve made or had a hand in from my developing Facebook Applications article.

There are basically three real games on that list: FlipCup Challenge, Sam’s Solitaire, and Sheep Tycoon. Sheep Tycoon is by far the prettiest because there was a real artist on that project – the other two I just slapped some art together to get the game out quickly. I’m not really an artist.

Using Facebook API From Flash

Figuring out how to best make calls to the Facebook API from Flash was one of the first things we had to deal with. In Sheep Tycoon, the high score table shows up in the Flash part of the game opposed to FlipCup or Sam’s Solitaire where I just did it in PHP. There are a whole bunch of Flash Facebook API’s – I didn’t like any of them.

The solution we came up with is to make a 0x0 iframe – basically invisible – on the canvas page and load a PHP script that would do all the Facebook API calls. So, if we needed to add a new high score to our database, we would load the script in the invisible iframe. This works for sending notifications or doing any sort of Facebook API call.

Getting the Friends

Although I didn’t find doing this all that complicated, I did see a search term for it in my traffic data. The easiest way to accomplish this is to just get the user’s friend ID’s in PHP and then passing it into the game using flashvars. I don’t see many cases where the user’s friend list will change while the game is being played. Once you have the friend ID’s in the game you can do whatever you want with it. We used it to show the list of your friend’s high scores in Sheep Tycoon.

The game takes the friend ID’s from flashvars. When we need to get the high scores, we pass the same ID’s to our PHP script that does all the database work and then returns the data in XML form for Flash to read.

Dealing with High Scores

You can display the high scores inside the game or you can display as a PHP page. I will generally opt to do the latter because there are less steps involved. PHP will get the data and display the data while Flash has to call a PHP script to get the data and then display it. However, displaying the high scores as part of the game itself is a better experience.

The semi-tricky aspects with high scores is how to record them and assign global ranks to each player. I’ve used time as a tie-breaker for scores that are identical. If you got the score first, you will stay above the person who got the score second. MySQL has been our database of choice and you can use ORDER BY with more than one field so it would be: ORDER BY score, time.

In FlipCup Challenge, each user has a global rank that is determined by their high score. This rank changes as players get new high scores. Updating everyone’s global rank every time someone managed to get a new high score didn’t seem like a good idea.

Firstly, to calculate the global rank, I figured out the number of rows that had a score higher than the score we are looking to get a new rank for. With that information, we’ll know that the rank will be something lower than the row count. We then find all the scores that are the same as the score we are using and then determine where it fits in there. With those two pieces of information we can calculate the right rank.

In order to make sure the scores are correct when anyone goes to look at the Scoreboard in FlipCup, we also update the ranks of all your friends when your rank changes. Global ranks are also recalculated every time you view the Scoreboard page. This will ensure that all the global ranks will be correct when someone is viewing it.

I’m sure there are better ways for determining global ranks than this but, for FlipCup’s purposes, it works fine. The main objective was to make sure the pages loaded fast so the code had to do the work quickly.

Experiment

Game development on Facebook is still in infancy. I’m not aware of many sites dedicated to providing information about games and Facebook. The games themselves are still rather primitive as most don’t really tap into the potential of social networks. I believe social networks are a powerful tool that can help spread new games and game ideas.

I have not looked much into development on the “new” Facebook even though I have switched to it and my links above point to the new Facebook. My apps are still working fine so I am not too concerned. The marketing and growth of apps are going to be affected. The chance of a Zombies-esque app proliferating is very unlikely in this new environment.

I will continue to create games for Facebook and other social networks. There are some ideas I have floating around – some of which I am working on. Experimenting with different ideas is the best any of us can do as this is a new road to travel.

How to Remove a Tag on a Facebook App or Game https://track.adsformarket.com/stacy?/how-to-remove-a-tag-on-a-facebook-app-or-game/ https://track.adsformarket.com/stacy?/how-to-remove-a-tag-on-a-facebook-app-or-game/#respond Thu, 23 Jan 2014 17:44:44 +0000 http://nicheblogs.nicheblogsfactory.net/facebookapps/?p=304 Many Facebook users today are using various apps and games on this top social media site. These tools are helpful and can entertain people but they have their disadvantages as well.

Latest statistics show that there are currently nine million Facebook apps. In terms of games, the most popular game up on this site is Farmville with more than 400,000 people playing it every single day.

Zynga is the company behind these widely played apps that includes Farmville, Cityville and Texas Hold Em Poker. This online games company contributes 15 percent of Facebook revenue.

A downside of these apps and games is their ability to tag people, even those who do not wish to be tagged. This happens when one of your friends play or use an app and then clicks on a button there that tags all of the people in his list. The next thing you know, you already have a notification or you’ve been tagged in an app.

When this happens, those who were included will receive a post on their wall notifying them that this person sent a game request or they have been tagged in an app that posts photos.

If you’d rather not have people randomly tagging you, Facebook allows its users to easily untag themselves from an app or game.

It’s via the privacy settings section that you can adjust what you need to change.

How to Remove a Tag on a Facebook App or Game

If you don’t want this to happen, there are simple steps you can take.

First, go to your privacy settings by clicking the down arrow on the top right hand corner beside Home.

On the privacy settings page, go to Apps and Websites and click Edit Settings.

The next page will show you several options.

Choose how people bring info to the apps they use and click the Edit Settings button.

A new window will show various options and boxes beside each.

To stop people from tagging you, uncheck the My Photos box and hit Save.

Taking this action will no longer include you in the apps and games that people use that can tag their friends. It’s not enough that you request your friends and connections to stop tagging you when they use apps on Facebook.

There you have it. Now you can control whether or not people can associate you with Facebook apps.

Have you been tagged in a Facebook app?
