The thing I wish that was available as a low to mid level favour is having someone pick up all the fuses in a district once you take it over. I don't mind going hunting for the other collectibles myself but three are so many fuses!

The game (ab)uses the CPU very heavily. 60-100% usage across all threads/cores depending on the area. I've been getting near-Prime95 level temps as well.

If his temps are that bad, he needs to get a new heatsink or fix the thermal paste on his current one. I don't know what mafia 3 would do to get higher temps than a stress test. Anywho. The Samson Lakota is truly amazing. And the Smith Moray is once again the best car in the game. I don't know why they jumbled up all the cars and changed the names and brands though.

The game prompted me to switch from Normal to Simulation driving, so I did. What difference does it make? I can't tell at all.

At 95 CPU you definitely have an unseated cooler pin, or the thermal paste/Intels prefab pad thing crumbled to dust years ago.

Like there was a cutscene early on where Lincoln's dad or whatever was telling him to take care of the Haitians and make a phone call away from the building to not bring attention, oh whoops, desktop. Loaded it back up and I'm on an airboat in the swamp.

My favorite crash is the one I get the first time I launch the game since restarting or just after a long period of not playing. I launch the game, hit continue and it loads in and then freezes. I have to alt tab to the task manager on another monitor to close Mafia 3. Then I launch it again and it's fine.

One of my funniest bugs was when I called for a car, and the car delivery guy drove around the corner, somehow ended up on a flight of stairs, and drove it half way into the ground and said, "Got a car here for ya!" Then walked away, and the car was clipped into the pavement up to the windshield. Needless to say, I had to call for another one. Utnayan fucked around with this message at 17:06 on Oct 11, 2016 |

Is there any downside to giving one of the rackets in a district to a boss other than the one you're going to give the district to? I was going to give this district to Cassandra but I wanted a favor better than a marker for the second racket, but I don't know if the other boss will get pissed later.

When you choose which underboss takes the district they take the rackets over which upsets the person you first gave it to and at least some favours get removed. I don't know how much damage it does or if each boss has a different breaking point but Burke and particularly Cassandra got very upset when I gave the first new district to Vito after they had the rackets.

Yeah Vito loved it when I did this. I gave the first to Cassandra and the next two to Vito. When I gave the last last of the next two to Vito, I pretty much thought Burke was ready to turn the IRA against me if I didn't give him the next one, so I did. In the end, I had all 3 having an equal share. I wonder what would have happened had I given them all to Vito. Missions to kill the other two?

Is there any way to drive a forklift outside of a underboss killing mission? Two times now I've stormed a warehouse thinking "after I kill all these dudes, I want to drive that forklift" and once the mission is over, the forklift disappears. I know it's possible to drive them because I see the action button pop up.

How do I get to start the pick up the airdrop weed missions? I have a map marker, and a guy to talk to, but getting a boat doesn't do anything.

Are you on PC? The default key is 'P' on the map to look at missions, from there you can select the one in question and it should show you a waypoint to begin. Those side missions require a designated boat provided to you by the mission.

Yes ( you get the actual take increased for more favour ) ElwoodCuse posted:How do I get to start the pick up the airdrop weed missions? I have a map marker, and a guy to talk to, but getting a boat doesn't do anything. Keep in mind that once you've run the first two weed delivery missions it will continue to leave a mission marker in the bayou for an additional weed delivery mission, but will not actually spawn the boat & bad guys until you have captured a new racket for Cassandra to deliver the weed to ( this is deffo a bug as I imagine it shouldn't be showing the mission icon when the mission isn't available ).

There are some moments that get to Sleeping Dogs-tier, especially closer to the end. I'd say as a whole though, this is a notch or two below that.

I'm enjoying this more than Sleepy Dogs. Plot is better and driving/gunplay is better, although fist fighting is definitely worse.

It's Poor Man's GTA where you trade some of the fun gameplay for an actually interesting story.

You can take random people as human shields, do kung fu and stuff people in the trunk of your car. Oh, and you can leap out of your car in midair and shoot the tank to carpet bomb. Sleeping Dogs is easily superior. EDIT: Sleeping Dogs is my favorite open-world game ever next to JC2 and Witcher 3. void_serfer fucked around with this message at 00:13 on Oct 12, 2016 |

I think this game beats out GTA for me, because even though it can be repetitive, you actually feel like you're achieving something, and you're doing it for yourself rather than being bossed around by some unlikeable rear end in a top hat. Plus, you can actually get paid, and there are cool useful things to spend that money on. Contrast finding $10k in this game with $10k in GTAV.

Joe Gillian posted:I also like that there's an actual incentive to not die, but sometimes that means that you don't take more risks with killing dudes. I usually try to deposit as soon as I see 5-6k in my wallet, unless I'm in bumfuck without proper pathing for the Consigliere to reach me. The best/most fun approach for me is to go a bit more on the guerilla side, killing some loudly and then disappearing. All games should do the proportional losses mechanism, GTA caps off at some point but this one is 1/2 your pocket cash all the time. Played game E2E and never really got suuper confident with money, usually saved enough in bank to be able to call in any assistance needed. Blew threw it all in final mission calling in henchmen for 7k a pop several times.

Some things are pretty nice about the game. The animations, most of the time, look nice - especially the AI being shot in specific locations. Comically falling over railings and actually reacting to walls/object as they go down from a shot are, usually, pretty top notch looking. Really it's just about everything else that I hate. Repetitively grindy, the story sometimes has a moment or flair of interest that is quickly squandered. It's barely even a mafia-style story, in that you could replace the word "mafia" with virtually any other description of a loose gang of bad guys and it would play out just the same. That's a horrible shame given how much I enjoyed Mafia 2. Frankly if it wasn't for the porn and comical buggy moments (careful about the volume spike), I'd probably drop it by now. Huge fan of the adult imagery to balance out the violence, even if the acquisition process is horrendously boring. More games could benefit from stuff like that.
