*MOD EDIT* For clarity since the platforms are pretty different let this be the place for PC Demo related issues. *
Here in this thread, you can tell 2K Games about any problems you are having with the PC demo & what you would like fixed & hopefully 2K Games will listen & fix 'em with a patch/update.
Thank you

Anti-aliasing - unsure if it works. Default setting is "off" and when I change it there is no diffrence.
Framerate on PS3 (specifically when driving cars) is terrible. Worst I've seen in any game in my entire life (honestly the first mafia for ps2 had a better framerate when driving).
Also although it's to late to add it in now, the lack of the ability to jump over/climb objects when being chased by cops on foot makes the whole thing way more difficult lol.
You can jump over things....Originally Posted by TheMonk
F**** STEAM F**** THEM. What the hell i've downloaded the demo and it is installing with the bull**** installer of steam. FOR F**** 20 minutes it shows me "performing first time setup install installing launcher. exe" and nothing happens. I WANT TO PLAY THE DEMO so that i can decide if my rig is good enough for mafia 2 and pre order it and the ****in steam woun't let me. I demand to give me a torrent link so that i can dowlnload and install it normally.
how? Not on ps3 you can't. Or at least it wasn't in the controller settings when I looked at them.
wow this was answered in your other thread, no one is going to answer you here and it has nothing to do with the thread get lost.
Edit: Also to TheMonk, you can jump over things on the PC version, so it should be on the ps3
I played the PC version
lol okay that explains it then.
btw I hope the mods can keep this thread clean and get rid of the ranting and just keep the calm comments that are logical, that way the 2K guys can actually look at this and see the problems without thinking we're all a bunch of whiney children
Look for "climb"; he does not jump exactly but climbs, sometimes with a leap.
The fps, which will probably be fixed with some updates in the future. Almost all games get fps updates. I'm talking about pc gaming here, I have no idea if ps3 and xbox360 really get fps updates to fix slow-downs.
PC graphic problems with me, Radeon X1950, Catalyst 10.2, Windows XP 32-bit.
Game runs, perfectly playable - apart from blinking shadows, flashing smoke and flame effects, causes such a headache. Also just noticed that light shining through windows, especially in the brewery, casts purple and green lines around the window frame shadows - looks terrible.
Everything else is fine. Tried changing my GFX card settings in Catalyst control center both to optimal performance and quality settings, but flashing and blinking still occurs.
Any info for a fix would be greatly appreciated, as I really enjoyed playing the demo and WANT to buy the full game - but only if this problem can be fixed, either by release date or in a patch.

talking about console updates or PC updates?
Frame rate problem ps3... every where.... and where is AA? screen tearing......

Pc, I just think my system should be running the game better than it is.
Amd Phenom II x4 @3.4ghz(isn't this the fastest amd 4 core processor?)
Gtx 470 1280mb card
4gigs only 3.25 of ram usable (not updating to windows 7 64 os)
Windows 7 32-bit
Feedback from other users if I'm incorrect with my opinion, I personally consider my pc a high-end gaming computer. I consider overclocked cpus running at 4ghz and dual-cards to be very high-end.

Fix The PS3 Frame Rates.
Fix The Retarded Player Damage And Wound System.
Fix The Choppiness When driving or Turning Quickly.
PS3 PS3 PS3 ONLY.
Screen tearing is probably because they have v-sync off for extra performance, no AA probably because you would have big slowdowns with it on. If you guys are getting bad frame rate without those on then you guys should get a performance patch.
There should be patch for the PC version that makes things in the distance not looks so distorted and blury. Oh, and the AA should actually do something.
Other then that it's perfect.
Oookey, so just registered here to write this... are 2K guys reading these forums? I think not.. but hey, here goes..
The game runs perfectly well with maximum settings and 1920x1080 resolution, PHSYX max also.
Using:
i7 920 4GHz
GTX470 @ 700\926 (GTX480)
12Gb DDR3
Benchmark result 45fps.
In the city the fps is 45-100 everywhere basicly.
So drove a bit around the city, did some killing sprees like in GTA games... and whaat....
1. Why cant I jump??? I mean its 2010... I cannot belive they didnt iclude JUMP....
2. NO SHOOTING WHILE DRIVING??? WTF..... This is a MAFIA style game and you cannot do driveby-s, shoot cops while getting away????? THis is the WORST flaw I have ever seen in a major game.
3. When driving into the water the cars instantly dissapear and you are taken back to the shore via a loading screen, this is sooo wrong and utterly pointless, might as well drown and restart.
4. No swimming......
5. Shooting crosshair is HUUUGE... I know that consoles need it but WHY does the PC version have to have a HUMONGOUS crosshair??
6. When driving a car into a wall at full speed your character cant fall out the front window??? Wtf.... it was the frickin 30-50s.. THERE WERE NO SEATBELTS!!!!
Damn I could go on... when first launching the game I had in mind GOTY FOR SURE!!! But after playing it, it feels that it has been left out some MAJOR things... that just dont make any sense as of why...
PS! Sorry for my bad english.
They read these forums.
The AI are so dumb!
1.Pedestrain dont react even when you're pointing a gun to them.
2.Police dont get out of their car until they parked right beside the road no matter how close they're to the crime scene.
3.People run at the same speed even you shoot them at the leg.
4.Shootout is pointless because these gangster would flee when the police has arrived.
5.The camera during driving would focus itself to the front and oppose my mouse movement when I tried to look around.

Yes they do read the forums and they answer our questions. Look for the threads "Ask 2K Jack (creative producer)" and "Ask 2K Dan (the producer)".
They are on here reguarly.
hi, downloaded the demo from steam onto my pc, game runs fine in itself, however...
When i start the mission, the cut scene shows the guy your talking to by the window.. but not the guy thats upposed to be sitting in the chair (harry??). subsequently, after it all kicks off, i do the machine gun bit out the window, run down the stairs and get prompted to get into cover by the door. Joe joins me.. and err.. thats it, nothing then happens. I checked a video and youtube and i think the Harry character is supposed to run out the door.. but because he doesnt appear to be there, this isnt triggering the event. So im stuck to this wall by a door, cant get out of cover and have to quit the demo?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
(posted this in a seperate thread and was told to post here
1. Yes they dothey did when I played it.
2. Well they're supposed to pull over, it's standard protocol. Abandoning your car in the middle of the street would be less realistic.
I installed the game,started it,and i got this message.I tried reinstallin it and the visual c++,i tried reg fixers and it didnt do anything.I really wanna play and i dont know what to do.Anyone know how to fix this?

1. Jumping is pointless, what good did it do it GTA IV when you could jump.....nothing and you can still jump over things so whats the point.
2. They already said it's because they worked really hard on the driving to make it amazing and fun and wanted to focus more on chases. So basically to make you more focus more on driving.
3. What do you mean the cars disappear? your car or all the other cars?
4. What? really this isn't a sandbox game, the whole city is there just for the amazing atmosphere to surround the beautiful story, and really for what reason does someone from the mafia have to go swimming in the ocean.
5. Agree on this, I would though like an option to make it disappear.
6. Falling out of a window would just be another animation they would have to code and script. It would take away from other details and wouldn't add to the game play at all, also they want you to focus on the driving and the car chases and if your driving at high speed and smash and fly out of your car that would slow the whole chase down.
And this game is GOTY, and as I explained all of these things make perfect sense.
Same problem here even forcing doesn't do anything...
Nice to know this game was only made for the pc for overclockers....
problem with demo:
i download demo from steam and i player it perfectly on high setting but when i close the game and exit to windows the screen is Very dark i try to uninstall graphic driver and the same problem
my system:
Phenom II X3 720 2.8
HD 5750
Ram 2GB
HDD 500 GB
ATI Catalyst 10.7
Sorry but I have to disagree, I'm enjoying the demo very much, but there are just too many missing elements, and while I accept this is just a demo the coding appears badly optimized, for this game to be GOTY, they had better go over it with triple polish before releasing it.
Couldn't agree more.
PC version
- Unadjustable FOV (Field of View). Default setting is terrible. We should be able to choose between 50-75. I'm guessing it's on 50 right now which is the usual console crap setting.
- AA is either On or Off. Not adjustable.
- Can't crouch while aiming...? Where there not enough buttons on a controller? Get it fixed.
- Crouch is terrible in general. He just ducks his head a little bit. What's the point?
- Sucky car physics. Seems to be no difference between Simulation mode and Normal. I play all kinds of racing sims (Live For Speed/rFactor/iRacing).
- Car camera constantly snaps to behind the car. Us PC people have mouses for a reason you know. We don't need this snapping crap. Look at GTA IV for how to do it properly.
It's mindblowing that a company spends so long on a game gets these so wrong. Embarrassing.

Hii ! I have one question ,, I have pc with Nvidia GTX 460 1 Gb OC 15% and intel i5 760 OC 3.4 Ghz and only 2 Gb ram DDR3 1066mhz and i have only 21 FPS ?? :-O , in setting i set everything on or high ,1650x1200 and AA is off , physx high too , and just only 21 fps :-( ? going on some patch to improve framerate in the game ?? or full game have better optimalization ? ,, i think that the problem is may be 2gb ddr3 ?
Hi,, i noticed in the demo I wasn't able to have inverted Y axis which i have in all other games so just wondering if it will be fixed to full game..?
are you sure ????? cause , for me there are differences between on/off .....when it's off , i have like 30 frames .....when it's on , i have 15-12 frames .... in the house ....
The AA definitely seems broken somehow.
It is very weak, costs heaps of performance, and there seems to be some sort of ugly blur filter on distant objects. So in the distance you have basically blurred aliasing. Very ugly.
This is the only game where I get more FPS outside than in the house...Dont get me wrong it works great both outside and in but weird...
I want to shoot myself for this AHHH!!
Hey.
I just downloaded the demo off of steam. Installed and all and pressed play. All i get is, first, a black screen. Then it hits a loading screen. And thats it. It stays on the loading screen for ever.
I have no idea whats wrong. I get no errors or anything like that. And the loading doesnt even freeze, cause i still see the loading icon move around.
I like that they fix the damn thing to actually work
