Mafia II Message Board  

Bar the fact San Andreas was I actually thought that was a good game. I still think it would be cool in some way to join them all up and make one huge game. With split story paths where they might inter mingle with each other. So if you wanted say go the hood gangsters you can go that path, Then bikers and so on. Obviously this would take long time to do but I think it would be so cool, I would certainly enjoy it.

i'm sure Rockstar is working on something like that, if for no other reason than to milk the GTA series for all it's worth.

Well I don't know how I did it the first time I passed this part of the mission because no matter how many times I try I just can't seem to do it. LOL

But I am getting better at it. I'm good at driving at just the right speed so I may come close to losing him but I don't.

Although onmy last two attempts you have to hear what happend.

First one: I lost as I was getting very close to our destination BECAUSE I made a wrong trun since I wasn't paying attention.

Second one: I kept up with him pretty well and then as well approach the tunnel he gets into an accident and before I can do anything I get so close he spots me!

Point is I am getting better and hopefuly soon I'll be able to do this flawlessly constantly.

i'm still working on this one, i wanna wait till i get my controller and get it set up, i'm hoping it'll make the driving portion of this mission easier.

Good luck. As I said I myself have only passed the driving part once. The only thing I can say is do not drive as absolutely fast as you can slow down for the turns when you see them coming up and go a fast as you reasonably can when you are on a straight away and of course if you come close to losing him. I may not have been able to do it a second time but I'm getting closer with every try.

And since you have the guide the stealth portions should be easy.

the stealth portions are made easier by the mind control cheat, though i was disappointed to learn, when i was doing the stealth part of chapter three, that doesn't mean, npc's you're trying to avoid, can still see you and sound the alarm, which is kind've odd, since they're frozen in place how could they raise the alarm, it's an automatic thing built into the game i'm sure, but still, it's a tad illogical. Anyways the best course of action i've is to not rely on the cheat alone, use it intermitenly like after a guard passes an area you're trying to sneak past to, then turn the cheat on, or wait until a guards back is turned to freeze him in place so you can sneak past or perform a stealth kill.

I'm going to tell you how I use the cheat to freeze the guards in Chapter three and it always works!

I enter the bilding throuhg the mens room. I crouch and move towards the lobby. And when get to when I get to where I can see the guards I hug the wall using the cover function of the game and then look around the corner and at that point one guard shold start waling away from the desk. I wait a few seconds and then I freeze everyone. I then go up stairs and the guard up there should be facing away from me looking out over the lobby. I take him out from behind. Then I sneak back down stairs walk up behind the guard waling who was walking away from the deak and take him out and then take the last guard sitting at the desk. Then you can walk around normally from there and deactivate the cheat.

And about Chapter 9 the stealth portion would probably be complicated by freezing everyone better to just follow the instrction in the guide as I said with help from the guide that part should be easy.

to get the professional achievment in chapter three, if you haven't gotten it already, you have to leave the guards alive, the first time i tried to get the professional achievment I did something similar, only instead of killing the guards, i snuck up to the desk to grab the playboy, then snuck across the hall to the opposite side and down the hall to the basement door, i was a little confused at first, cause my guide said it was a green door and in the pc the door's blue, i attribute this to it being a cross platform guide, anyway, headed down to the basement to disable the alarm and grab the playboy down there, unfortunately it is not in the same room as the alarm so it took a little more looking around, afterwards i headed back upstairs, closing all the doors behind me, just in case, and headed back across the hall to the hallway with the bathroom where i first entered from took the small stairway upstairs that leads right to the right to the director's office grabbed the keys to the safe, headed out to the office opposite to grab the third playboy in the building and then screwed up when i left and went around the corner and ran smack into a guard that frozen there on patrol apparently, after that the alarm went off even though i'd disabled it, and the guard started shooting at me, so then i said to hell with it and went around killing all the guards, but my game crashed when after i was done selling the stamps and went to hit a garage to get my car repaired and forgot to turn off off the freeze timer cheat.
