— Thomas Angelo, Mafia: The City of Lost Heaven
The first thing you need to know: the game was postponed for a month now the release is scheduled for September 25. To transfer the fans showed the first minute trailer, which is remake can be assessed to have at least a little bit.
And so a little to sweeten the bitter pill, in parallel, the developers announced that they will show gameplay on July 22, which happened at the appointed time. True, the first video appeared on the channel edition of IGN, and then on the official Mafia Game.
In the spotlight — the delivery of alcohol, the one where we rescue Sam on the farm. In 15 minutes the staff managed to show and comment a lot, but the issues become even more. For example, how did Tommy throw Molotov cocktails? And a quarter of an hour in any viewer can accumulate at least a couple like that. Dissatisfied and one of the main developers and also the writer of the first two parts of Daniel Varva. In an angry post on Facebook, he called the actor playing Paulie, and Shrek, and Hulk, and frog. And sarcastically spoke about the system of shelters, on the scattering of red exploding barrels and the physics of the cars. Later, the Czech had deleted your message, because, according to him, didn’t want to offend anyone. The Americans said they perceived the message more as a compliment, and believe in what I do.
The selection of the cast, too, questions may arise. The actor who played Tommy, not quite like the protagonist from the original. Plus he’s Australian, albeit with Italian roots, fans worried about how he will be able to pass a Chicago accent. To prevent a potential mismatch “angarova” try special courses for the actor. Fortunately, even though the plot will be expanded to include stories about other characters, Sam, Sarah, and others, and it is hoped that the integrity of the original script is not affected.
As we expected, the Playboy magazines in the game will not. Collectibles will be popular just after ninety, a hundred years ago (remember, the events in the game happen in the 1930s) cigarette cards (they were literally Packed in packs of cigarettes) with images of the main actors. the First such card developers already shown.
Changed and the city (the original card of the city, even lower — remake). Of course, it needs to become more alive, to match the modern game. That is why, for example, had the Salieri bar and significantly changed the countryside. This is clearly seen in the officially released the updated map of the city. But for publication, pass the card in print, there are a few complaints: service and repair Burton is not marked with a cross as other important places, and the inscriptions with the names of the localities cover the topography.
