If you want Tommy to go on death defying car chases all across town with lots of shootouts, press one. If you want Tommy to keep doing the Don's taxes, press two.

I can see them wanting to break up the combat with something a little slower but even that is taking things too far. The second game riffs on this with one mission early in the game; the game tempts you to walk away when you're ordered to load a truck at the docks and even if you stick with it Vito will eventually say 'gently caress this' and refuse to pick anything up.

Following simple instructions 101.  Oh, man. That freaking warehouse guard stun lock bullshit is inexcusable. I think one of the workers was running away after you knocked out the piss guard which means he probably saw you. No idea why they all come running and shooting after doing it supposedly properly though. Maybe because you got into the truck which triggered some "trying to leave with wrong boxes so guards should chase" script. No idea. Either attempt the piss hit or just finding a good defensive position and trying to shoot them all. All of them. Even the boxes. Poil fucked around with this message at 08:53 on May 22, 2017 |

I love the moment in mafia 2 that lampoons this mission. The main character quits after placing a couple of boxes and tells his foreman to shove the job where the sun don't shine.

Steps to a successful Bank Heist, by Paulie: 1.) Go to the bank during an ordinary day. Talk in a low voice about how you're going to rob everyone while still inside. 2.) Get a fast car that has no roof, to lower wind resistance 3.) Rob the bank the same day, in the same clothes, with nothing to hide your face 4.) Hope your boss doesn't notice?? I have no idea what they're going to be doing after this, since Salieri would not like his guys just robbing a bank on their own. I see why Tom keeps him as his Best Buddy.

I think the weird thing in Paulie's room is a font? It used to be a thing in Scotland among Catholic families to have a font so you could cross yourself proper.

Yeah. That and bathrooms in some older tenements were communal. Which is actually a thing making a comeback in some segments of NYC since the rents are too damned high--you can save 600-800 a month by getting a studio sans sanitation.

He did say we had earned a nice bonus for the job so he probably did pay, almost, for diamonds. Also considering Tommy left the prostitute and the accountant whathisname go free instead of murdering them as ordered, he's kinda throwing boxes in a glass house about it.

Tom had no issues murdering a bunch of people to steal some boxes of what he thought was just expensive tobacco but had a conscience when it came to offing a hooker (who's boss and bodyguards he had just finished murdering) and a trusted friend who betrayed him... I think he may be more upset at the Don not being honest with them instead of him not getting a proper cut. He even said to Paulie that they had plenty of money.

Nice. Amazing how the Mafia was able to book that entire very large museum for the afternoon and make it completely empty aside from their 30-odd guys. Wonder what the placard read. "Tuesday: lecture on renaissance realism, 3PM. Wednesday: Private Family Event <all day>" ...makes you wonder, were they going to have a convention after whacking you? Does sam normally travel with a couple of dozen heavily strapped goons? I mean, he's certainly been shot up enough to want the protection, but geez.

I still love this game even if it's dated and the gameplay is messier than I remember. I think a lot of that is just more of what I was used to with PC game design back then.

Another little hidden detail: Before heading for the museum you can visit Yellow Pete's gun shop again to make things a bit easier for you.

FlamingLiberal posted:also I would just mention that the epilogue of the game is recreated in Mafia 2, although I felt like it was recreated kind of poorly. I donno it pretty much unfolded just like that in the sequel; same people, same car, same house even. Though Joe looked a lot less bulbous that time around. I wonder if they had always planned on that or if it just happened to be a happy coincidence. Based on the comments in the video I'm going to assume the hosts haven't yet played it so I don't want to spoil what happens at that point in the game but even then it felt like a pretty crappy thing to do and marked a significant shift in the game's story.

Oh hey, I've got the best idea! Let's set the climactic battle in an art gallery! It'll symbolize all the collateral damage to the city done by the mafia fighting each other! And let's have Tommy trust Sam even though it's clear that the only way the Don could have figured out about the bank job so fast is if Sam told him! And let's have Tommy held at gunpoint for the cinematic, then get out of it! Somehow! And let's have Tommy rant on and on about the cigars but never mention that the cops were threatening Frank's family! And then let's have Tommy killed in the epilogue after the player worked so hard to keep him alive; I've got this great speech for the VA to deliver as he dies! Oh, and wait till I tell you about this great gangsta rap song I want to use for the credits? What? It's a game about gangsters, isn't it?

The people who made this game clearly watched Goodfellas, since the plot of this game is pretty drat similar. The Don is clearly supposed to be like Paul Sorvino's character, Paulie is clearly based on Joe Pesci. Due to his final scene, Sam is a lot like Robert DeNiro's character (except DeNiro was not working for his boss when he started killing off everyone). Story wise, it shares the similarity of mobsters killing each other after a successful heist, and then the main character turning state's evidence and going into witness protection. also Tommy Angelo is voiced by Michael Sorvino, son of Paul Sorvino. I just finished Mafia 3, and while the gameplay is pretty repetitive, the story is arguably the best in the series. I appreciated that they finally resolved the end of the story from Mafia 2 which was never completed because the publisher got greedy with their DLC and I guess never finished it.

Part 23 is up now, ending our Mafia playthrough. It was quite a trip, and maybe we'll play more of the series in the future, but for now, I need a break from all forms of driving. I hope you enjoy this final sendoff, and Amy and I thank you for sticking with us yet again. We'll be back soon with more fun to be had!

It's kind of impressive how much the "free" mode hates you and likes randomly ending the game if you do anything to attempt to stray from the very rigid paths they have set up.

Things I have done (or seen done) in Freeride: Go over to that park near Salieri's next to the tunnel. Snipe at gangster cars going through the tunnel with the 1911. After crashing around a bit, they'll get out and try to pathfind to you on foot. Pick them off with the Tommy or the Model 27. Go down, get their cars. (You can do a combat roll off the edge of the wall to avoid falling damage.) Park them up there, repeat. Once the parking lot is full, go buy some molotovs/grenades from Yellow Pete and blow up the whole lot. (Which is also a bug: you can also skip the reloading animation with a combat roll.) Drive around just pulling over and shotgunning random gangsters. Unfortunately the ones on foot only carry Tommy guns, you need to get the ones in cars to get other guns. Hang out by the hospital offering free high-speed lead injections. Heal right there as needed. (This was not me.) "Celebrate" being dumped for a blonde by buying a knife from Yellow Pete and driving around at night knifing blonde women. EDIT: Oh, and: find the door in Oakwood that unlocks all the prototype cars. (I forget where it is, the info's on Gamefaqs.) Run wild with those. sfwarlock fucked around with this message at 05:34 on May 31, 2017 |
