gunfeel and driving are both really good, and brutally knifing redneck racists in the belly never gets old

I'm a fan of blowing their legs and feet off personally.

Shotguns are king in this game.

Please help me get hype, tia

you can dismember klanners if you're half decent at aiming a shotgun.

and they deal with racism reasonably well tbh.

Had my first glitch in 5 hours on PC. As I arrived at a jetty, the boat I was meant to get in whizzed up and about in the air all over the place like a balloon with no knot, taking damage as it did until it blew up and crashed into the river, creating a boat shaped bottomless hole for the water to pour into.

See I know the game is glitchy but I just can't get mad at things like this.

Game's legit fun but maaan does it feel like it's missing a patch or two.

Well good news, there's a patch coming in approximately ten minutes.

Looks like the patch worked just fine! I'm getting ~50 FPS with all settings maxed at 1080p with an i5-4690k @4.2 GHz and a 970.

E: they completely overhauled the controls as well, it works far better now.

The only thing I really want now is better textures for PC, and a way to disable that drat camera snapback while driving.

ive never played a mafia game, is it fun and worth the full price?

Buy on steam, if you don't like it, you can return it if you've played less than two hours.

Alternatively, GMG prolly sells it for significantly cheaper.

Steam downloaded the patch, but I don't see an option anywhere to modify FPS and the game is still locked at 30. Where is that setting? Also, where do you enable simulation driving?

Yeah people were saying xbone's 720 and PS4's 900.


I've got an i5 4460, a 970 and 8gb ram and I struggle to even get 30 on low. WTF?

Well that's goddamn bizarre. I have almost the exact same setup (slightly better haswell i5) and I'm getting 50-60 on Max at 1080p

I've honestly never had a crash, and that's despite poking around with CE's VEH debugger! The only glitch I had was the weird lights in the bayou and that's completely ignorable.

That being said the repetitive nature of the game is downright dire.

Which is a shame since the gun play is loving fantastic. Miles better than GTA.

My kingdom for a fast travel option.

So far this is the best GTAlike in terms of story but weakest in terms of gameplay. Even the Saboteur, released half finished, had less repetitive gameplay.

It's a bit of a weird dynamic, since honestly it's the missions that are the problem. If the taking over the districts dealio was your standard ubisoft open world side activities, they'd be great! But as part of the story, as part of your main mission structure? I'm not so hot on them. It gets a bit boring after awhile.

But driving, gunplay, and the like? That's fantastic, and honestly it sets a new industry standard because it's really really good. Also, I really like the lack of a weapon wheel and the limited ammo. I mostly just wish the weapons weren't straight upgrades.

apparently you get absolutely loving nothing for getting all the magazines. For getting all the records and vargas paintings you get absolutely loving nothing, and even more nothing

Also, don't install the supercharger upgrade on your cars. it adds a fake rear end blower whine that's basically just a really high pitched squeal at full throttle. if you have bad hearing and your dog is losing his loving mind when you play mafia 3, that's probably why.

I didn't even realize you could modify cars!

Uh, how do you do that?


E: Wait, gently caress me I'm dumb. They're cassandra upgrades, so they ought to be applied universally.

If you're on PC just cheatengine the wiretap materials. It's a bit complicated since you need to use a debugger, but the instructions are pretty clear on the CE forums.


Saves a shitton of time. Because I gave myself 99 wiretap materials and I've used almost all of them with three districts to go.

Apparently the address for wiretap boxes ties into how much a captured business earns you, so putting it at 99 will really hamper your income.

Incidentally I put mine at 5000 and boy was that silly when I went to get paid :haw:

Only if you don't use the VEH debugger method. If you do, there's no problem.

I'm on the PS4 and trying to do the Guns racket and I think the game has become completely loving busted. I did the trainyard with the map and an informant but nothing else showed up on the map so I can't progress any further.

Not all of the rackets are in the district. Zoom your map out further, and look at your objectives screen. I think some guns rackets were in the bayou.

10-15 frames with that get up? That doesn't sound like an optimisation problem - there has to be something else going on there.

Yeah seriously. Same setup here, 50-60 on maximum. The game is great on PC, though I'm glad I got it for $40 as $60 is a bit on the high side for this game. $30-$40 would be a fair price.

I mean, what the gently caress would it be? It's not like I'm getting artifacting or anything that would suggest my card's hosed. The audio's constantly clipping though.

Definitely a problem with your computer then. Check your temperatures for throttling. Might be a CPU issue too.
