View Full Version : Small Suggestion

Ability to ask a stranger (probably somebody thats already smoking a cigarette) for a lighter?
Then take out a smoke - depending on how much you have left - light it and walk down the street all cool and what not.
I thought this small addition would just be a simple but cool feature that could be implemented into the game.
Now... this could be built upon like;
Say when your smoking, certain people around you would act towards you differently: Seductive women, mafia members, store owners, women paranoid about their children's health, etc. Although as a consequence for this depending on how much you smoke maybe sometimes you might cough randomly and lose a chunk of health. This can also draw attention in missions and stealth parts of the game.
Now I know the developers probably aren't going to read this but I thought I'd just share my small idea with the community.

I say that sounds interesting. Just make sure it's not Metal Gear Solid type health loss, in which smoking kills you in 10 seconds.
By the way, remember that this is the forties and fifties, when most people didn't know cigarettes were bad for you. Oh, and we need some expensive gangster cigars.

ridiculously specific animation but it would look cool, besides a dev has to see this to consider it

I'm aware of that, but if your in a gun fight, shots whizzing all around you, you can't say a small cough is going to somewhat effect the outcome of the battle between mafia members.

what i saw in mafia 1 was that tommy had a lighter when he was a cabbie and when he was mafia he had matches.it seems a bit strange.so vito need to have a lighter.

Except Cigarettes don't have an unprecedented amount of arsenic in them that cause you to die in a matter of seconds from a simple smoke :confused:

That would be cool, but I hope they don't focuse to much in such details. It is the story, the sound and the missions that are important
