    Of course Tommy could swim. He just was shy to show his body, and he didn't want his suite to get wet either

    Hrmm, who knows, perhaps it would be a bit akward to see him swimming, or any mission thats require for you to go into water.

    Have no idea, Dbeat, but in general I would love to see Vito being able to do as many things as possible, and swimming is one of them. I really hope they implement this feature because we know now that there is a river that cuts Empire City in half, so very probably there will be many places from where you can jump into the water, with or without a car, so swimming is a must have IMO at least for playability after you finish the missions or for Free Ride (Extreme).

    To tell you the truth I really don't want Vito to swim or to fly airplanes or helicopters. It's to GTA alike...maybe, just maybe Vito can swim, maybe he has to in a missions that requires this...but no flying please...

    Plus the whole Mafia thing just doesn't go well with the "flying choppers and planes" scene. Keep it real :P

    Maybe Vito was pilot on the war

  10. #10
    Remember Vito was just a poor immigrant who commited crimes and was sent to war. Where he had opportunity to learn how to pilot an airplane ? And choppers were mainly for military use in those days, if I remember correctly, the times of each millionaire owning own helicopter will come later.

    Swimming is good idea, flying plane also, but not like in GTA... but i don't want to polemize about it.

    I want swiming for 100%
    I want flying for 21,7%

  12. #12
    Nah, don't think flying's a good idea. But I do like the swimming part.. seems realistic for a man knowing to swim, not dying like a ☺☺☺☺☺ in 2 seconds :P

    I do want Vito to be able to swim but NOT flying planes or helicopters. Actually I don't believe at all we'll be seeing Vito flying planes or helicopters. It's only 40s-50s, too early for mass private planes and helicopters. In those times helicopters weren't even available to public. I reckon I've said I want Vito to interact with envinronment as much as possible, but no flying stuff at all, to interact with the environment like this: to be able to open all doors of the car and to be able to keep them opened if you want (which was confirmed), to enter in all important buidings and be able to use the lifts and get to the roof (if there's a roof where Vito can stand and not buildings with 45 degrees roofs), to be able to drive motor boats etc.

    I hear about that for 1st time. You mean like , you can open all doors then go driving with the doors flopping on each turn ?

    No! I am afraid of this kinda evolution to the game, Mafia 1 was simple and I want Mafia 2 to be just like it.

    No. To keep the car's doors opened while in repaus, NOT while driving the car!!! I want that mostly because in a fight I want to be able to use any of the doors for cover, but not only for this.

    Yes that a good ideea, and if you wanna run with the car you wont be needing to open the door again, just jump in the car and close the door.

    Oh, I see. That would be useful too. I just imagined that you want to be able to drive with open doors, so if Vito would get kidnapped by rival family, he could roll out of driving car

    Yeah, why not after all? This way I'll be able to crash the car until there's no doors left.

    you have to accept that it was frustating when you where in a mission and if the car go to water .....cua cua cua cuaa you had to repeat the mission again or at least that part of the mission.

    Maybe the swimming part will be processed in Mafia II.
    If you played Hidden and dangerous II you could do that, so when 2K Czech has experiences with this, they could be able to implement it in game again and it's still better than do entire mission because of one mistake.
    At least I wanted the water to be seen-through, to see some stuff swimming in it (some condemned sunk gangsters), to hide murderous weapon.

    My money is on the fact that he won't be able to swim, cos theres no need for it I'd say.

    I don't want to swim in the game, but you know, you're driving fast, don't have any time to cut a turnsection and suddenly you're diving in a dirty artery of Empire City.
    At least I wanted to see the car sinking deep in the river, craping windows, ssssssing of car engine, raving Vito, not just sentence where it says: You've just lost your valuable live, do it again?

    I hope Vito will be capable to swim and dive damn deep enough... 'cause I want to break the record for the deepest dive in history without any help (help= oxygen mask + tank).

    I thought about it again and I tried to imagine a swimming gangster with wet tommygun, that's really imposible (but it depends on level of processing - if it's a simple animation or a complex and elegant-one - no it's imposible).

    Hence the reason I was a bit against it, but when you crash of a bridge with a car, do you survive anyway, hrmm.

    If you have the right chance.
    I don't know. Maybe if I saw it first, than it was implemented in the game, it would be easy to say: good idea looks good or get it away

    Noooooo, it's NOT!!! Hmmm, maybe it is now that Marlon Brando it's not with us anymore to show us how a mafioso should do it with style!

    Maybe there could be implement everything and each person could censor his own unwanted scenes and possibilities.

    yea and also they should put an animation of Vito going to the restroom and Vito going to sleep..come on you want a realistic game and you dont want a character that swim you think that all the game will be on the water and also you will learn to dive...im only saying that would be a lot better if you go on the car and if the goes to the water you will be able to swim to the surface and to the ground so you wont have to repeat the mission again...

    If they don't implement swimming I hope fans mods will solve this problem. Who wants to swim, install the mod! But I don't think swimming it's something bad, after all, and I hope it will be in the final game. Flying... YES, it's bad!
