System requirements?

[cruelstein]

I really look forward to Mafia II - but I´m also afraid that the system requirements will be way to much for my PC.

Do you have any information about this now?

[DemonSVK]

I think it's too soon right now to discuss HW Requirements.

[2K Elizabeth]

this is too soon -- when we have stuff like this, i'll post it!

[[noodle]]

The screenies that have been released so far look pretty good, so I would hazard a guess that the recommended requirements would be pretty high. That doesn't mean that the minimum requirements will be ridiculously high too, as they could make it so it runs on pretty ancient machines too.

To sum up:
I have no idea what the minimum will be, recommended looks to be high(ish).

EDIT: By "high" I mean able to play stuff like Bioshock and Crysis well. Unlike mine, which chugs along at a nice 20 fps.

[Spid3r]

I want to ask you> This picture http://www.mafia.hodnoceniher.cz/mafia2/wallpapery/121.jpg
have got worse quailty then others. Why? Is it from older version of Mafia2. And why it has been hided on oficial mafia2 web? Thank you

[xgamover]

Greetings from Russia! Question 4 Elizabeth

So, is it true, that u'r goin' to release Mafia 2 for consoles firstly and THEN for PC??? Sry about the mistakes.

[Mr Crazy]

I thing, that we know more, than we should know, aren´t we, Eliz? :-) Secret screen, secret information :-D
I´ve got question for you-we heard from some people, that Mafia 2 maybe will be relase as far as summer of 09. Can you confirm it? And another one-when exactly is the end of information embargo?

[BioShockWins]

Greetings from Russia! Question 4 Elizabeth

No. We have already answered this on another thread in this forum.
PC will have all the same things as the console versions, just with better maximum graphics! (I assume)

right now the PC version is on schedule and being made exactly as the consoles are being made.

[Vladik]

I'll upgrade my computer just so I could play Mafia 2...
Even when I'll have to waste all of my money..

[Spid3r]

Yes, I will upgrade my computer directly mafia2 came. I have got 7600gt (overclocked +15%), 3gb ram and athlon x2 4200+ @2.4ghz for now, but I like my favorite games in high resolution and best details :)

[Madis]

I know you can't yet predict what the minimum requirements are, but I could still ask if it will not run with these specs:

512 MB RAM
ATI 9800 PRO
Pentium 4 2,4 GHz

I know it's really low-end on the Random-Access-Memory side, but maybe Mafia 2 will have support for really low-end machines aswell, with just worst graphics and lower textures.

[BioShockWins]

Yeah. It definitly looks like you'll have to upgrade your RAM.
But I don't know what engine the game is using, so I have no idea on what the requirements might (or might not) be.

[Dave0000]

Hello!

My specs:

AMD X2 6000+
Gigabyte 9600GT GDDR3 512MB
2x1GB DDR2 800Mhz RAM
ASUS M2N-E SLI

According to you? Will he be enough?

//Apology for the grammaticality, but I write about Hungary. //

[DemonSVK]

Sure it will be enough. It's high-end PC ...

[MedicMomcilo]

For Mafia 2, I have had gonne and bought new computer, and thought about upgrading, it has two DDR3 dimms, SLi support, and QuadCore support... I know it is a lot of money... but for Mafia... ;)

[Pantsless]

Any info regarding the release? When can we play it? I know no one can give an exact date, but I would at least want to know if we can see it this year, or next year....

[BioShockWins]

Any info regarding the release? When can we play it? I know no one can give an exact date, but I would at least want to know if we can see it this year, or next year....

No. It will be pasted all over the forums (I'm sure) when a release date is announced.

[Madis]

Not that I'm an evil man or something, but let's try to avoid offtopic(release date != sys reqs), I would like to see a well organized topics. And of course, sorry for this post here too.

[Shalgo]

I'll upgrade my computer just so I could play Mafia 2...
Even when I'll have to waste all of my money..

Yeah, I'll do the same thing. Can't wait to play it. Mafia was the best game ever. It had everithing- Gr8 story, graphics, soundtrack and playability. If M2 is going to be at least as good as it looks...hell yeah!

[Pantsless]

pf... I have an C2D E6300 @ 2.4ghz, 2gb DDR2, 8800GTS 640 (g80) @ 650/2000 and to be honest, judging by the screens I saw (some nice HDR, good looking shadows etc).... I'm veeery afraid it won't work well... heh, hoping for the best :P

Everything should be great. Except your CPU seems a bit slow.
Is is a dual core? If so, everything should just be peachy.

[Pantsless]

Dual core ofc. But specially for mafia I'll get a Scythe Andy cooler and increase it's voltage a bit so I can easily get 2.7 ghz or so.
Thank you for cheering me up dude! :D

[RaptorM60]

To be honest, I'm not as much interested in HW requirements, becasue I think Mafia II is going to be the game wich will definitley make me buy X360. Not in time of Mafia II release (late on Q1/2009 expected) though, that should be a bit late for Xbox (isnt it already?), but this year in summer ... yeah, sounds like a great holiday on a couch :-D.

But from what we can see on the screens ... this game is going to need some powerful combination of Core 2 Duo and GeForce 8 series graphic card to be played smooth in acceptable quality :-)

[Tetref]

i'll wait for official requiments...and then i'm going to rob the bank (:

[Pantsless]

i'll wait for official requiments...and then i'm going to rob the bank (:

lol nice one :P

[Mr Crazy]

My opinion is, that i´m planning to buy PS3, but I´ll buy Mafia 2 on PC because I´m looking forward to Czech dubbing and I can´t expect it in console version of the game...

[ironbear66]

if Mafia 2 is half as good as Mafia 1 then i'll buy a new console just because of the game, there there is no game like mafia, i just hope that Mafia 2 won't be GTA -like, i love mafia 1 just because it is un GTA like.

[Styvesant]

GTA and Mafia are like completely different. Mafia is more realistic in every sense, but that's not to say that GTA isn't a good play every once in a while. :)

[ThaCrip]

well by looking at screenshots i seen recently in this forum... my guess is the 'recommended specs' wont be light lol

me personally, im still expecting to be able to run the game 'decently' (sorta like my old PC ran MAFIA... which was not perfect by any means but still playable and can enjoy the game)

my system specs are...

-AMD Athlon 64bit 3500+ CPU (2.2ghz overclocked to 2409mhz (single core)) (this is the weakest of my setup overall i think)
-Geforce 7900GT 256MB (this aint high end nowadays... but it's still on the better half of graphics cards overall)
-2GB of RAM (i doubt ill have any problems in this area) ... my guess is minimum will be 1GB of ram (especially on Vista) and recommend will be 2GB+ (im guessing im either exactly right here or really close! ;) )

(i made this PC myself in March 2006) (this was before Intel has the Core 2 Duo's out... so my system was pretty good at that time)

i think weakest part of my system overall is probably the CPU.. cause i KNOW ram wise i wont have any issues there and i think my graphics card will probably be 'respectable' for the game and even though im pretty sure my CPU will atleast meat the minimum requirements im guessing recommended will be a dual core CPU.

-------------

on a side note... i to like MAFIA more than any current GTA game (not counting GTA4) .. and as i said before MAFIA is one of my all time favorite single player games..... bottom line im looking forward to MAFIA 2 much more than GTA4 although im sure ill still love GTA4 ;) (only on PC though as i cant play shooters on consoles due to lack of precise aiming with analog stick vs a mouse)

and also, i think another thing that makes MAFIA overall quite a bit better than GTA series is 'weapons feel' as guns feel alot better when shooting them vs GTA's which feel alot cheaper.... and i really like how MAFIA feels like a mob movie (sorta like GODFATHER, which is sophisticated etc etc)

Yeah, you should be able to scrape through, however I reckon if you want to get the full experience you will have to run Vista, cos of DirectX

[ThaCrip]

Yeah, you should be able to scrape through, however I reckon if you want to get the full experience you will have to run Vista, cos of DirectX

but does the game REQUIRE DirectX10? ... cause if it dont, then Vista wont be needed (i have vista though, but either way my graphics card only supports DirectX9 in hardware)

[Styvesant]

That I would not be able to tell you, but looking from the screenshots I would say that perhaps it does. Yeah I know the 7900GT does not support DX10, but I'm still a bit worried about your CPU it's uber slow, you might wanna check into that.

my CPU aint 'that slow' ;) , although it is getting dated... but the thing is i dont have much options for a upgrade since it's a socket 939 on my mobo and not AMD's newer AM2 socket which has ALOT more upgrade options.... it's sorta hard to find a CPU for my socket 939 motherboard.... and the ones i can still find (dual core wise) are WAY to expensive (150 ish dollars... i paid 200 for my current CPU back in March 2006) considering it wont help my performance all that much overall cause there usually slower in Ghz vs my current setup etc etc.... i think you see my problem ;( lol

Na it's not THAT slow, but compared to the ones needed atm, it is slow as much as it sucks it's true. One way I would go about your new upgrade plans would be to sell your PC, and build one from scratch. Keep your gfx, if you cannot afford everything, and replace it with like a 7300gs or something. Are you saying that dual core, is slower than single core?

[JimmyH.]

Do you thing i will able to play it (maybe on medium details):

System:

Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 (1,8 GHZ)
ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT
2 GB DDR 667 RAM
Vista

Thanks...sry for my "bad" english ;-D

[jackinthebox]

are you joking *shiver* :eek: I'm not going to vista again... maybe in 3 years when it's a stable system. I had to use Vista with my new notebook (because they don't sell them with xp anymore) and it was like living in hell. operation systems were invented to operate them and not that they operate YOU... it was quite difficult to install xp with no official drivers for the notebook around :mad:
sorry i had to moan about vista, but my frustration about this system is exorbitantly high... back to topic ;)

Vista is a stable system for me and I use 64bit. However I do find that people generally say it is bad. But on the other side, Vista is not really there to play old games or whatnot, and stuff like that, although I have found since I came back to Vista after like 10 months, that stuff is becoming more compatible with it, even with 64bit.

You should be ok with it, medium settings that is, since your CPU has good overclocking ability I would try that, and maybe just maybe get like 4gb of RAM.

p.s Your English is fine :)

[RaptorM60]

I personally love (and have) Windows Vista, it is beautiful, stable and safe system.

Don't be afraid - publishing Mafia II only for DX10 positive players would be 2K's sacrifice :-)

[coderman]

I'm sure it will support dx10, but I don't think there will be effects which are only available in dx10. If so, I hope with a little hack it can be achieved in dx9 as well, like in crysis :) About the specs, looking at the shots, they look marvellous, but luckily there aren't as many details as in crysis, so I hope a 7900gt like vga will run it smoothly.

[Styvesant]

It would be wrong to compare Crysis to any game so far, or in the near future. Crysis is a game in it's own league :P

7900GT should be able to yeah.

[Pantsless]

I personally love (and have) Windows Vista, it is beautiful, stable and safe system.
Don't want to be offtopic, but M$ win XP can do almost the same things Vista can, only with less resources. M$ released Vista talking about the fact that they couldn't simply implement DX10 in XP, they had to build a whole new OS, from the ground up => bull****, they only wanted more $$$. Plus, DX10 is not what we were all hoping for.. no way, not by far. They promised DX10 will have multiple advantages and they kinda lied ...

[ThaCrip]

Na it's not THAT slow, but compared to the ones needed atm, it is slow as much as it sucks it's true.

Are you saying that dual core, is slower than single core?

oh no... i aint saying dual core is slower than single core i was just saying the mhz on the CPU's i can get for my current mobo are generally slower in mhz vs the cpu i currently have and overall im guessing i wont get THAT MUCH of a performance boost by getting a CPU that's semi older for the dual core's to especially when they still cost 150 dollars or so when there fairly old and should be 100 or less at this point cause of the AM2 socket CPU's are pretty much standard now on AMD CPU's.

are you joking *shiver* :eek: I'm not going to vista again... maybe in 3 years when it's a stable system.

sorry i had to moan about vista, but my frustration about this system is exorbitantly high... back to topic ;)

me personally i think people claiming Vista is not stable is just a bunch of BS in most cases cause at least for me, Vista is just as stable as XP is... sure it uses more system resources etc etc but if your pc is powerfull enough to handle Vista then it wont be a problem overall... and after i tried Vista i would rather not go back to XP overall cause of all the little things it added like the search function and i like it's cool interface etc etc.

p.s. im using Vista SP1 (i just switched to Vista late March which was around the time SP1 came out)

i got my Vista copy for free though (yes, it's legitly activated) cause if i actually had to pay for Vista i would have definitely stuck with XP cause Vista aint THAT MUCH better than XP when you consider it's 100+ dollars for it... it just aint that much better to justify it's price tag over XP.

Vista is a stable system for me and I use 64bit. However I do find that people generally say it is bad. But on the other side, Vista is not really there to play old games or whatnot, and stuff like that, although I have found since I came back to Vista after like 10 months, that stuff is becoming more compatible with it, even with 64bit.

i agree!... and everything i tried on Vista works good so far even older games like MAFIA run fine on it and all the apps i use... although im sure Vista still has issues with a decent amount of stuff out there... but in my case i have zero complaints about it overall.

[Styvesant]

Yeah, plus when XP came out the first time, i was demolished, cos I liked even Win ME more than it, but as they progressed through, and made SPs I eventually made XP my OS, like Vista is now.

So you might as well familiarize yourself with Vista, let's move towards the future, pretty soon, XP won't be able to run crap, but thats in another 3-4-5 years lol.

not for me... cause as soon as i tried Win2k/XP i loved it immediately cause of system stability alone, cause prior versions of windows (i.e. Win95/98/Me) where unstable vs Win2k/XP.... for that reason alone it was MUCH better than older versions of windows if you ask me ;)

i dont think i kept WinXP full time though til SP1 was out for it... before that i sorta kept switching between Win2k and WinXP myself.

but overall XP is still probably the best version of windows out there just cause stuff 'just works' AND you dont have to worry about the crappy activation stuff either if your using the CORP version (which darn near everyone is lol)

Of course Win Vista will be used in the future... Not because it's better than the old one, but because of the circumstances. Let me explain: M$ will now release SPs for Vista, not for XP, all their attention would be toward making Vista better. All game developers would optimize their games for VISTA, not for XP thus with time we will have the impression that it's better. In reality it's not, if it wouldn't have been released we would have managed very well with xp (game developers too). So it's all about M$ making lots of money and nothing more...
You noticed all games require more ram to run under Vista than on XP didn't you? Imagine playing Gothic 3 on Vista: swap, swap, swap.. some more swap here, and some more there..

[james_beckerson]

So, it is useless to buy a graphic card which can operate on DX 10 if I'm using an XP ?

[ThaCrip]

So, it is useless to buy a graphic card which can operate on DX 10 if I'm using an XP ?

yep, pretty much since Vista only has DX10 in it and XP will never get DX10... although i would still imagine a DX10 card will still be 'fast' so in that sense it aint useless ;)

it just wont use the DX10 features (assuming a game supports dx10 in the first place) is all if you got a directx10 video card and used it on windows xp.

[Styvesant]

Yeah, the SP3 of XP does not enable it to use DX10, since that is one of the selling points of Vista, and Vista will be better than all the OSs soon, it is packed with crap, but that's the way M$ does it.

[Pantsless]

Well, yes it's useless from that point of view. BUT, all the new cards are DX10 so there is a reason to buy them (only the old cards don't have support for dx10)
Anyway, I do posses a DX10 card, though (imagine that) can't play any game in DX10 cause it runs too crappy. The card I have is an 8800GTS 640. The loss in performance is too big, and the gain in image quality is too small. Watch the tests in the new-realeased Assassin's Creed: vista DX10 and DX9 have framerates way smaller than those on XP dx9 (and the image quality is the same in both SOs in dx9, and SLIGHTLY better in dx10)

[Styvesant]

Well, yes it's useless from that point of view. BUT, all the new cards are DX10 so there is a reason to buy them (only the old cards don't have support for dx10)

Yeah true, but some cannot really afford the new ones, actually yeah they can, 8600 etc, you think it Mafia 2 would use DX 10.1?

[Pantsless]

I don't think it will use dx 10.1 but even if it does, it won't matter... cause even if it will, it will only use a very small part of dx10.1's features as present games don't even use all the features dx 10.0 grants. But I'd say there is 99,9% chance for mafia not to use dx10.1

BTW, 8600 ain't a good solution, may i recommend ATi's HD3850 instead (it's quite cheap and fast)

[Styvesant]

mmm, too true, guess we'll wait for a Crysis to show up again lol

Notice the 'etc' at the end :P

[james_beckerson]

Well, I was thinkin' about GF 8600 GT with 1gb Ram. presently have GF 3 64 ram so it will make a huge difference. Anyway, I'm glad that most of you think that Mafia II won't be PC-killer , for which powerful enough machines will appear in reasonable prices one or two years later :D

Woah, that's some system lol try and upgrade everything as much as you can :). Yeah I'm sure that Mafia 2 won't be a little Crysis hatchling lol. :)

[Pantsless]

Well that depends... depends on how well optimized it will be. Let's hope for the best.

so i will fill out that blank space with something suitable at that time as Grafix
cards are comming out these days like Cell Phones ... i m quite positive that
my other resources will be enough at that time ...

Yeah you stated earlier that you are using XP, so 2gb is sufficient, what are you hoping to get as a gfx?

[Fraz]

Yeah you stated earlier that you are using XP, so 2gb is sufficient, what are you hoping to get as a gfx?

my eyes are at 8800 GTS 512 MB or 9800 GTX at the moment but ...
there may be something even better and more suitable in this price range at that time ...
and may be ATI also introduce something more comparative to Nvidia at that time ...

[vaults]

Having two GTAs 8800GTX running in SLI mode will probably keep me out of trouble with any kind of system requirements.

I guess a Core2Duo will be required, don't know weather or not the engine will be able to fully use a quadcore like Crysis did.

In any case, before getting upgrades for my PC, I would wait till the exact system requirements are released.

heh. can't go wrong with 9800 :P but the 8800GTX still packs an awesome punch, and is worth the money in some cases :)

[Patrony]

Hello everyone! Im really excited about this game, and I hope we hear something new soon.

Im wondering on these requirements of this game. Either if one of you could tell if it may work on my computer, or maybe 2K Elisabeth is willing to answer, if she has got an answer, that is:)

My specs are;

Intel Core™ 2 Duo E8200 2.66GHz
Corsair TWIN2X 6400 DDR2, 4096MB
XFX GeForce 9800GTX 675M 512MB

Do you think this will work?!?! I hope sooo!

lol, Are you showing off?:p Of course it will work.

[Styvesant]

Of course he's showing off.

[Horkrux]

The Ati 4870 is better than the GTX 260 from Nvidia ;)

[Styvesant]

Bang for buck CherryIcee said. And after I reviewed it, I can say that it's true. So I am getting 1, or 2. Don't know yet. WEEHHEEE!!

[Patrony]

haha, im not showing off... :cool: Just a little bit! :p nono,just kidding... I just really hopes this game will work on my computer... It looks totally awesome, and the graphics.....oh my lord :D :D

haha, im not showing off... :cool: Just a little bit! :p nono,just kidding... I just really hopes this game will work on my computer... It looks totally awesome, and the graphics.....oh my lord :D :D

I have a DualCore, 8500GT and my only worry is about my ram memory because I have 1 Gb and I feel strongly confident that Mafia 2 will run, maybe slower but it will at least work.

If you get another 1 gig. I think you should be able to play it on Medium, or maybe Highish too, if there is certain tweaks etc. But I would go with another gig of RAM to be sure.

Yes, I am planning to get me some ram but I have a problem. I only have two slots of DDR2 and curently I am using both of them, so I need to sell my 2x512 DDR2 and buy a 2GB one.

Hope it works out. I need to upgrade myself, can't wait :)

I'll upgrade my PC when I know the official requirements. Just for Mafia 2 :)
I never played a current game whith all details, my PC was always too slow.
But this time, I'll have the needed Hardware.

All I can say is if you're looking for bang for buck choose ATi. :P
