Personally I don't mind playing at less than 60 fps, but it's an insult for those who invested time and money on a top-dollar rig. I just don't want to sound elitist or like those so-called "PC Master Race" crowd who would condescend at those with lesser systems.

I recently watched this video on YouTube comparing the seminal Thief with AAA of today, in that they criticised the overuse of what I derisively term as "training wheels" - quest markers and the X-ray vision mechanic as popularised by the Batman: Arkham series, and indeed the author made a point at how gaming has become rinse-and-repeat over and over instead of a unique experience on each game you try out.

Update :

Today i installed the game , (downloaded from steam)

I played it like for 2-3 hours at the 30 fps limit .

Its playable but i don't really enjoyed those frames .

And here is the FIRST PATCH comes at . 16/10/09 about 2AM (in european time)

An 1,2 Gb , steam patch , which allows you to set tha framerate to 30 - 60 - or Unlimited

So its on live guys . You can play Mafia 3 at 60 fps BUT with LOW settings .

So i got this machine :

i7 3770
AMD R9 390 8GB (updated Crimson 16.10.1 driver
16 GB 1600mhz ram

The game runs from an Adata SSD .

So what is the deal with this ?

I can play the game on 50-60 fps , and its real smooth BUT , only in low settings .

But the biggest surprise is : When i change the graphics from High - to Low

Nothing happens

Like seriously .

I can't see the difference .

The game is nice with on High and also nice on low settings too .
Nothing happens , just the frame goes higher .

So if u want to get good frames in Mafia 3 , lower your settings .
You aint gonna see any difference trust me .

Btw . nice console port hangar guys , good job , well done

Collectors edition is trash, wasted $180 AUD on this.

For a game with driving, why are there no cars or figurines!

A CD with music would be far more useful than a couple of LPs I'll never play.

That's why a simple wait for an independent review can save you a lot of trouble and money. If the game remains as it is, I give it half a year before I can find it at the discount corner.

Kaminsky's comment is of course sarcasm.

I guess the only reason why there's no difference when turning the graphics down is because they are already down by default.

Here is an article from Tech Report:

[Kaminsky]

Just when you think that GTA IV was the worst port of all time, Hangar 13 has outdone R* with this:

While it's understandable that dual-core processors are becoming more and more ill-suited for gaming, even graphically similar titles can run on Pentiums like the G3258 and the Skylake-based G4400 with little to no issues. From what I heard the game's way too CPU-intensive for its own good.

wOW

This is a funny video.

Of course its not running smooth in a dual core processor .

No offense i see your point in it .

but seriously Its 2016 and not 2006

Try GTA 5 or even GTA 4 on a dual core processor
It gonna lagg out of the world on 30 fps .

Btw. yeah Muggy's got a great reply .

I remember this picture :

So whats the point with the DX 11 and the Win 7

I don't get it like seriously.

[Rant] My concern is that having said (although probably to keep us quiet)
that Mafia III was going to be primarily a PC game but would also
be available on consoles as well. They then did a U-turn and made
it primarily for consoles and then ported it from console to PC.

Although you can change the resolution to your monitor's native
res.. the actual result is mostly 720p expanded to fit. The textures
are not full HD or if they had optimized it fit in with today's 2K
and 4K UltraHD... the graphics might have been pretty damn good.
But what we have got is a game that runs like a console game with
interaction that would be suited for a controller with multiple
buttons rather than a few key-strokes and a mouse. For example
there is an option to perform a certain movement/attack where
as you usually use the same fire button e.g. left mouse button
to either shoot or if holstered to punch... you have to press
[blah! key] + [meh! key] + [dah! key] stand on your head
for a simple move or special move to be precise.. This
game has not been optimized for PC whatsoever.

To be totally honest I would rather they had delayed
the PC version to optimize it as a PC version and
not a piss poor console port... [/End Rant]
