Mafia II Megathread - v2

[PhantomGamers]

@s0beit:
Godfather 1 was the shit.
Godfather 2 was alright, but personally I thought it was better on Xbox than PC.

[Henry Townshend]

The Godfather games weren't bad, but I felt they were very arcadey and it wasn't pleasant, which is why I prefer the Mafia games.

[Fulzo]

Well i can get both the Godfather games for just over £5.00, so if i don't like them.. i haven't wasted much money.

2 forced to me to buy a xbox controller to play it decently.

And playing to conquer all the places to lose them in the next mission was very frustrating.

Goddamnit I'm stupid. I was editing a file without backing it up, and now the game crashes. :colbert:

Would anybody mind uploading police_char.sds in "Mafia II\pc\sds\police_char"? It's only 2 MB.

Delete it and validate the game files.

[QUOTE=Alyx Zark;24476542]According to the bitch known as Elizabeth, Jimmy's Vendetta is NOT releasing tomorrow. Rather a sneak peek Sept. 1st.[/QUOTE]
September 1st?

Thanks babe.

And he's probably in a different time zone that is actually in the future.

"PAX Prime is coming up this weekend - and we're going to be at the 2K Booth giving you hands-on time with Jimmy's Vendetta! Not going to be able to make the show? Never fear - we're going to be showing a 1-hour sneak preview of Jimmy's Vendetta with Denby Grace and Dan Schmittou from the development team!"

What is the song called [sp]when Vito gets out of prison and sees empire bay again?[/sp]

[QUOTE=mysteryman;24476296]you have a detective pistol already, the .38 snub.[/QUOTE]

Sorry, I'm not one of the stupid guys, I said I wanted a BLACK one. Not the silverish thingy in the game. Read properly next time.

[Sobek-]

I suppose I'll just ask again... Is it possible to mod the apex in the retail game the same way as the demo, to remove the clothing physics on everyone but Vito?

Yup, exactly the same way. [url=http://physxinfo.com/news/3628/mafia-ii-demo-tweaking-physx-performance/]And here's the link if you need it.[/url]

Is it just me or did they take the song Rave On by Buddy Holly out of the game? I heard it all the time in the demo, but I've never heard it once in the full game.

Yes it is, just there'll be more to delete.

[Sobek-]

Ahh, neat. I thought maybe it would either be more complicated or that 2k might have done some gay thing to try and prevent us from doing that again...

Good good.

[PhantomGamers]

@Sobek-:
Pretty sure I answered you the first time you asked... :P

[maqzek]

So wait, when does Jimmy's Vendetta coming out?

[valiant..]

Who the fuck is Carlos Lopez in the first artwork?

I don't remember anyone named that.

[editline]09:52PM[/editline]

I assume it was another character that was cut.

Carlos was mentioned in [sp]A Time Well Spent. Leo talks to you about the other families running Empire Bay and, correct me if I'm wrong, he mentions Carlos leading one of the three families. But Leo says he's short tempered and a fucking psycho.[/sp]

[valiant..]

Pretty sure that's Carlo Falcone.

How did you do that?

[Sharkle_Bunwich]

[QUOTE=valiant..;24480341]Pretty sure that's Carlo Falcone.[/QUOTE]

I figured I was wrong. I really didn't remember. Mafia 2's story is pretty forgettable.

[kmathis]

Well evidently that realistic damage mod fixed the artifacting in my Mafia 2.
that's odd.

[Henry Townshend]

[QUOTE=ClarkWasHere;24480363]How did you do that?[/QUOTE]
Lua command I do believe.

[lua]game.cameramanager:GetPlayerMainCamera(0):EnableFPV(game.game:GetActivePlayer(),true)[/lua]
That's it apparently, but I haven't tested it yet.

My browser can't see code tags unless if they are in quotes...

[Henry Townshend]

Haha. I just tried it and it worked, but holy shit good luck using it while walking.

[Ub3rMesa]

ugh Just finished it on hard, such a bitch.

And I felt robbed about the missions being cut

[ni🅱️🅱️a]

[sp]I honoestly don't understand all this talk about a DLC ending, that it's a cliffhanger, etc.

The ending makes perfect sense, Joe was getting really sloppy, jumping on the idea of a dope trade knowing it's against the family, and even killing the Chinese mafia's don. Those alone are reasons for a whack, but everyone knew he was working with Falcone still, and only changed because Vito was the assassin. If Vito hadn't saved Leo's life earlier, I'm sure he'd be heading to the same place with Joe.

It isn't a cliffhanger like a lot of people are saying because Vito knows he cannot stop the hit, and if he did, or tried, then he would be whacked right after. You should have all expected this from a Mafia game, it's supposed to be dark, and sad, not uplifting.[/sp]

[Freako_Dude]

Is there a way to get back to Leo's house after the mission?

[Mrs Affinity]

Alright so I got this problem, I just bought this game yesterday from Target, so its a retail game. I installed it and stuff everything went fine. I reached a certain part in the game (chapter 2) where for no reason my health just starts slowly going down. There is a constant heartbeat on my screen and my health stays at around 1hp.

I'm assuming this is some kinda of stupid DRM or something, anyone else have this problem?

I have seen people reporting getting this from one of the games cracks.
