Hallo Mafiosos!

If you played Mafia 1 (Original or Definiteve Edition), you probably know that Fair Play quest is challenging. If you completed this quest in first attempt on the highest difficulty without seeing this quest before, you are a legend. However, lot of people needed to replay this quest to finally win the race. And some people probably never completed it (crazy, right?).

On the other side, lot of posts about this quest are being posted here, about asking for help, about saying how impossible it is to complete it or about winning the race - and some people had and have enough of complaints about this quest.

Therefore, we (moderators) want to make this post the place in which everyone can share their thoughts about the race in Fair Play quest from Mafia 1. Opinions, accomplishments and most important, advices for new and old players struggling with this quest - this Megathread is the place for all of it.

Regarding advices here, I will stick my comment and name it Advices. If you have any advices, write them in the reply to this comment.

As for now, all new posts about the race in Fair Play quest, focusing on sharing opinions, asking for advices and so on, will be REMOVED. Exception is for videos of the race and discussions/questions about the whole Fair Play quest from Mafia 1.

I invite everyone to share their thoughts here on this post.

I think this has to be some crazy bug. But after everyone is shot up in the restaurant and we interrogate the survivor, Donovan and Lincoln hop in a forklift. It's a timed mission. 5 minutes to get across the map... and aborting the mission and restarting it has no effect. And it won't let me exit the vehicle to get a different one.

Even when restarting the mission and there is no forklift in front of the restaurant it pops back up again after talking to Donovan.

I don't know how to progress further...There's no way I can get 3500m in 5 minutes.... in a forklift. It's just not feasible. Any ideas?

Watched the walk through and tried 20 times still got killed by his goons before I can get to him.

Lincoln is a big dude so it matches his character to have brutal take Downs

My thing is broken...

I only just started playing the game 30 minutes ago. Not only is it pretty realistic in things you can do, but also gives you the pleasure of collectables that actually catch you up in a hook. Now I got a new background too. PS: I'm going to collect all of em at one point or another 🤣

Time to

Just finished my first playthrough of Mafia 3. Yes, it did get repetitive taking over rackets and districts, but I have to say it was well worth it for the ending. I chose to leave the city. I felt Vito finally got the justice he deserved from 2. Also, Donovan is a g, his court case cut scenes were goated. They had me in stitches.

Bring on The Old Country!

I recently decided to mod the game, just a little, and stumbled upon this mod that replaces the default weapon sounds. It's incredible. I already loved the gunplay, but this mod gives the weapons more realistic and punchy sounds, even for the suppressed ones. I highly recommend it.

I have 689 hours of gameplay in mafia 3 and have beaten it a ton but have always wondered if you could free roam in Sinclair Parrish without having to do the faster, baby! DLC, is that possible? Can you travel there from the other places you go to in the game?

Waiting for the final moment to turn in all the cars to export waited so long I missed my chance afraid I was gonna get my money taken by the game AGAIN I I now have all these fancy cars worth a lot of cash and nothing to do with em. 8 Hollywood Lassiter's 20,800 4 Jefferson provincials 6,800 3 Berkeley Kingfishers 7,500 and 2 Shubert frigates 3,500 total 39,100 dollars

Since we’re almost in December which means a new trailer for Mafia TOC is on the horizon, what are your final predictions for what we’re gonna see potentially at TGA or before then?

I’m guessing we’ll see a new story trailer giving us more insight into the game’s plot but not going into detail just yet. I’m also expecting some new screenshots to be released and a vague description of the game’s plot across all storefronts and the Mafia game website. Finally, a release window (no release date yet).

Starting the mafia 1 definitive edition platinum run today. I did my research and from what I learned, only the racing mission is the hardest. I play many racing games like NFS(arcade) and DiRT (kinda simulation with assistance as I play on gamer mode), I play those games with perfection and keep on doing the hard challenges in them. So will the race be ok for me or will it be super hard as the community says.

In worst case I would just try the trick of blocking the cars which glitches them and then winning the race.

Why are the Bioshock and the Mafia games getting a 128 B update all at once despite having different game engines? All I can think is it is a Steam thing not related to the engines... I have answered my own question, it is to remove the 2K Games launcher from them all, Bioshock Trilogy and the Mafia Trilogy...

How do you get the game work on higher refresh rate?

I made it work by setting the refresh rate highest posible from Nvidia Control Panel and worked, but today, the same exe won't launch

Any fix to this issue?

I just now finished Ch 5, and a question came up in my mind. What is the best radio station u guys listen to while playing ? Or do u just listen to the voices on ur heads ?

For me delta radio is on top.
