[QUOTE=DeanWinchester;24336965]Here's a very simple way to play Mafia II early on Steam for Non-US people, without the need to use proxies or other fancy third party programs:
[B]Step 1:[/B] Pre-load the game by going into your browser of choice, and type in the url: [B]steam://install/50130[/B], let it finish downloading of course.
[B]Step 2:[/B] Go to the [B]../Steam/steamapps/common/mafia ii/pc/[/B] folder, create a [B]txt[/B] file named [B]steam_appid.txt[/B], open the file, write [B]50130[/B] in there and save it.
[B]Step 3:[/B] Go back one folder (the [B]mafia ii[/B] folder) and run [B]launcher.exe[/B].
There you go, Achievements work and it says on Steam that you are playing the game, the only downside is that you won't be able to use the pre-order DLC until the game is "officially" released on Steam for you.

fuck yeah you have no hat
About the steam://install/50130 thingy
[quote]~TGG~ BurdenJ: That is obviously not ok. Such restrictions are in place for a reason - bypassing them is a violation of the Steam Subscriber Agreement

Just sayin'

Highly doubt they would ban for that. Though there is always a risk, as I said the Proxy method is the only thing that I can basically GUARANTEE won't get you banned.
The Steam Install and App ID Method very well could.

That method is for playing the game once you have purchased it, mainly for the folks in that continent called Europe so they can play it early. It is not for pirating the game.
DAMMIT, In the mission where you [sp]sell the hotrods, I used one hotrod to push another one all the way to my garage. "Your vehicle cannot enter the garage"[/sp] :saddowns:

I have bought it, i bought some special edition on game
Not funny, it took me half an hour to do this
[QUOTE=Maximum Mod;24342590]I have bought it, i bought some special edition on game[/QUOTE]
Is the game linked to your Steam Account? Did you activate it on Steam?
I've got 1008 molotovs somehow.

What, no, i haven't gotten the copy yet, i think i'll get it tomorrow

eurgh whyyyy cant you do this on the 360 version :frown:
Why the fuck:
LUA Console by modmywhat perform no commands INCLUDING LUA
Sobeit's trainer crashed all my savegames
This game forces me to being honest or something?

lololol.

Because consoles fail.

Never tried Sobeit's, but MMW's Dev Console works fine.
You can only use the DVARS listed in the Readme, but weather and time don't work.
The rest are boolean (1/0) and not actually commands. To insert LUA you need to toggle cg_lua to 1 or put #lua in the front of the line. Works fine for me.
[QUOTE=maqzek;24343004]Wiseguys don't cheat.
lololol.[/QUOTE]
Eh, I feel cheating after you beat the game on Hard/Simulation without cheats is alright.
[QUOTE=PhantomGamers;24343326]Because consoles fail.[/QUOTE]
I think it's also a stupid oversight by the developers not allowing you to do that without the use of the dev console, but yeah you're right.
I want this game :(

I agree, they should have a legit outfit without hats.
A suit.
Though I would be just as happy if they packed the console with the game.
[sp] Oh god I hate it when henry dies, it's so gory and sad D: [/sp]

And, [sp] how do you know Joe dies? He might have been able to get out of the car before they kill him,[/sp]

Haha, I like.
[sp]I wasn't expecting you to go to [/sp][sp]jail[/sp][sp]and even then i thought it would be a short cutscene until you were realeased.[/sp]
My thoughts on the ending, not too specific but I'll put tags on it anyway:
[sp]It's like you were watching the series finale of your favorite show, then right before it ends some schmuck comes in and pulls the plug. I mean really? What the fuck. I would have preferred 2k spent another month on the game to give me some fucking closure. Best story-driven SP game I've played in a while, worst ending I've seen since Far Cry 2(Well maybe not worse then that)[/sp]
Just wondering, is there a free roam option in Mafia2? Otherwise I won't buy it.
You can freeroam between missions and load chapters, but there's no seperate free roam mode. Also there is no free roam after the ending.

Lol same. Each time I thought this would be the day.
