Mafia 3 PC performance thread

Wow I thought it would look like GTA V, not GTA IV... This doesn't look good.

And that 30fps issue....at least they did the PR damage control quickly.
 
The character models (at least the main ones) and lighting seem very good, but the vaseline all over the screen is actually giving me eye strain.

I think this game will be quite a looker with some reshading and disabling CA and that vaselin effect.

The game doesn't look bad per se, the style they're going for does, and I said this in the "no reviews before launch" thread, that not a lot of people are going to like this, which I had from German journalists who played the game on PC.

Cutscene models looks fantastic though.

Halfing the PS4 version with my friend it is then :/ Really wanted a new game to try out with my new GPU. Seems like it'll have to be Gears 4.

What's the technical term for the Vaseline look? I hope they patch a way to turn that off or make it look better.
 
The fact they knew this was how the PC version was going to ship and be played by people and they were content with that says all that I really need to know about them as developers

you don't get a second chance to make a first impression

Yup. I won't buy their next game and I won't recommend this one to anyone.

"I don't know what framerate the PC version was running at but I know it wasn't 30FPS"

right...

they're all full of shit. the fact that none of these issues were talked about displays how much of a shill those guys are.
 
That image quality is... unbearable. The downsampled image look a fair bit better so I think that is what I would do even if that means cutting down on other settings.

What on earth is going on with it. Is that a filter or something? If it is, can it be removed somehow? This reminds me of Quantum Break but somehow worse, more so with that CA in there. Yuk.

I posted one gameplay video from preview event and it was running at 60FPS. I don't know if it was rendered via video editor in 60 FPS.
 
Generally, when PC gamers complain about a PC port being "bad", they mean "not sufficiently better than the console version".

Actually being worse is more of a once-every-5-years thing.

Well, we have Pro Evolution every year to break the rules...

The is a reason publishers love flying Joe AveragewithaTwitch halfway round the world to play games early.
 
I'll wait for the patch before starting to play. If I wanted to play it at 30fps, I would have bought the PS4 version.

Hopefully it isn't too far away
 
I have never used a vpn to unlock a game early but with the hurricane looming I want to play before its too late lol. What are the consequences ?
 
Hoo boy, glad I dodged a bullet by not pre-ordering this one. I'm really interested by the game and setting, and that discount on GMG was tempting, but glad I second guessed it.

Maybe they'll get this sorted out someday?

Really unfortunate. I remember Mafia II being great on the PC.
 
1080p looks more like 720p. Why is it so blurry? Chromatic aberration can't be the sole culprit for making the image quality this rubbish. Can you disable something to make it look normal?
If not then that'd be my request for future options to be patched in.
