I've got one sitting in a tab. I just need to do the graphics settings section, so it'll be up around half an hour after the game has unlocked (I'm assuming unpacking will take at least ~20 minutes).

Edit: Oh, well, never mind.

SORRY!
I'll p.m. a mod to close it.

Posted this in another thread, but now I'm thinking the OT is a better place for it.

Anyone else preorder with Amazon? My copy still hasn't shipped. Says, "Shipping Soon." I had this happen with King of Fighters 14, and it ended up being that I wouldn't get it until 2 days after release. Same with Star Fox. I'm considering canceling my order and going with regular retail. Hate how sometimes they shirk on their "release day delivery" guarantee, and then act like they aren't at fault. Has anyone's Amazon order shipped yet?

Looks like GiantBomb just started streaming it - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sLOX7RanU8

 

[MrTroubleMaker]

preloaded and ready to go!

 

[JaseC]

SORRY!

No need to apologise! Steam says there are only ~five minutes to go, so, yeah, it'll be up within the next 10 or so minutes.

 

[terencecah]

anyone else get a nonworking key from cdkeys?

 

[rdytoroll]

Do you have to stay in offline mode after the game unlocked via VPN? Want to play now, but never used a VPN before

 

[Karak]

Ok ya. Story telling is simply next level here.

 

[ascully]

Jasec do once unlocked via VPN do I need to put steam in offline mode until tonight here in the US when it unlocks properly?

 

[Rellik]

Both of mine worked fine.

The "Play" button will revert back to "Preload" if you disconnect from the VPN, however you won't be booted out mid-game. People switch to Offline Mode simply because it's easier to relaunch the game.

As above.

What country is Mafia 3 unlocked in?

Doesn't flyvpn have a free trial? I can't seem to find the free login/pw area on their website. Though I could be misremembering.

 

[JaseC]

What country is Mafia 3 unlocked in?

AU, NZ and Asia save for Japan.

PC players you can also use Australia to VPN unlock now:

Thanks, so now we just loging with our regular accounts instead of using the free login/pw like in the past?

Yeah, looks that way. It's definitely a recent change as the free accounts were still required the last time I used it (I'd guess two months ago or so now).

 

[In Service]

I really want to play this after watching Cohh's stream but: £39.99 (£37.99 with Prime) physical or £54.99 Digital Download / XBO Store.

Even with a 10% discount out in the wild for XBO credit that's still £50 vrs £38. Why.... why....

 

[Krappadizzle]

Yeah, looks that way. It's definitely a recent change as the free accounts were still required the last time I used it (I'd guess two months ago or so now).

Yeah, that's what I thought. Thanks!

Though now I'm running into Steam not wanting to work. I saw your post about the mobile authenticator getting in the way, and I do use that, but I don't know how to remove the mobile authenticator and just use the email one.

Any ideas anybody?

Edit: Just found out. Has to be done via the app itself.

Someone on reddit posted the Xbox One version runs 720p and sub 30fps and looks even worse with the grain filter:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Mafia3/comments/565yu6/playing_mafia_3_right_now_on_xb1_some_questions/

Not sure who to believe - I want to see some gameplay of the Xbox One version asap!

 

[Rellik]

Same. It somehow still knows I'm in the UK.

 

[The Illiterati]

I'm really looking forward to the choices...I know as you take over parts of the city you can choose to assign your partners to different districts, and they can get jealous if you favor one over the other. I'm wondering if you can choose to just totally favor one forever and wipe the other two out, and if this adds any replay.

 

[LordBaztion]

Ok ya. Story telling is simply next level here.

ok. I think I'm getting this instead of Gears, then.
Edit: Will wait for reviews

 

[Orpheum]

YES CAN'T WAIT!!!!! Really nice OT!

Unfortunately i don't get to play it until saturday

 

[Redlogic]

I love the way they insert those sections to give back story, so well done and they look fantastic!

 

[Mediking]

Incredibly tempted to buy this....

I'm playing the One version and it doesn't look good.

It's blurry and never runs smooth.

 

[dragonflys545]

Do it! If you have GCU and have a best buy around you. It's basically $38 buck for the game before tax.

Well that helps me wait a little. Day 1 issues I hope.

[Spooky Scary Skeleton]

Missions being all extremely repetitive is a huge turnoff for me. I mean, Mafia 2 missions were repetitive enough, how can they not come up with some original approach with the missions?

 

[Feral Gingy]

I think I'll jump in on PS4 Pro even if it's not that great.

I played through the first two Mafia games so might as well play this too.

Can you check which version are you running?

If you go to 'My Games & Apps' from the Xbox dashboard, move over to the Mafia 3 tile then hit LB + RB + View button. This brings up a data screen and shows game version.

Is it 1.01 or 1.02?

thanks!

 

[ElzarTheBam]

Holy shit

Simulation driving is amazing fun

The feedback is 'chunky' and heavy in terms of feel.

Fishtailing lincolns car is awesome. But it may not be to everyones taste.

 

[Lashley]

Can't get it to work with a VPN, even disabled mobile authentication.

 

[JJShadow]

Just received my PS4 copy, cannot wait to sink into it! Btw, physical copies include a really detailed map of 1968 New Orleans, nice detail

 

[lemmykoopa]

Does the city feel full of life and organic with interesting npc behaviour etc?

 

[Rellik]

I gave up. I'll just play it at midnight.

I will do a later walking the walk video to cover all this but for mine time in it, there is a ton to like here when it comes to that. Lots of open stores too

Woah I did not know about that little power user feature. Is the day one update out for xb1?

Does Lincoln have a romantic interest in the game? I wanna see the guy happy.

 

[M.W.]

Do people react to getting shot in different places? Seems like the case based on earlier videos but I'd like a confirmation. Thanks!

He looks as happy as Kratos.
