About Mafia II driving model
Hello guys,
Today I have a message from one of my fellow colleges. Vaclav Kral is responsible for the driving model and he did this job also on Mafia I – therefore you can definitely believe that he knows what he is talking about:
“Our driving model at this moment is far more realistic and precise than the physical simulation used in Mafia I – and thanks to this it is actually also easier to control. It is closer to real cars.
Thanks to the setting of difficulty that we are now experimenting with we should be able to make the driving accessible for players who do not play hardcore simulators and like rather easier and arcade like car driving. However even when set to arcade, the driving still maintains high quality feel of physical simulation.
But the rest can enjoy the ride with “raw car” without any supporting driving assistants.
In the videos released so far you could see only driving with arcade setting (it is the default one at the moment) and also the driver chose to ride rather carefully (no skidding) and the camera was not ideally positioned.”
I believe that we will try to do something about this during our E3 presentation.
