The great incoming title from 2K will support surround gaming, including a central HUD, out of the box. :bowdown

Demo runs VERY well. I'm actually pretty surprised. But after exiting the demo, my screen brightness was WAY down, but cursor is still white as always.:/ and it wasn't remedied until a restart...

Specs in sig. using 10.5 drivers.



Odd that it shows the individual monitor width instead of the total resolution.

I'm not getting the same luck as you guys... I can't see my 1920x1080x3 Bezel Compensated resolution, however it does list the 5955x1080 resolution on it's own.

Here are some results of the trippy behaviour when you don't use the "x3" res.

Firstly, it's Hor+ fine...







However as you can see, the HUD doesn't center.

Also, intros are stretched and zoomed and videos are flipped on their heads! Note, I pasted a couple of these screenshots incorrectly, but you get the idea.





Menu is also stretched weirdly across the screens, and options do not show up to click on until you mouse over them by luck..




All of this is solved if you choose a 3x resolution. The HUD centers, menus center, cutscenes are fine, but I don't get my max res listed :(





Doesn't offer the "3x" option for it. I thought maybe it just can't go that high, but Abram you get your 1920x1200 BC resolution listed! So I don't know why it doesn't work for me :( /cry

To be clear, I also get "3x 1920x1200", the non-BC res, but no 6040x1200 or 5760x1200. Just the "3x" ones. Same goes for 1080 height resolutions.

Am i crazy, or are the graphics a lot more cartoon-y than the first game?

Anyone else find the nudie pic on the table?

Looks like folks over at Steam forums have figgered a way to halt the time limit, and remove the map barrier, a-la Just Cause 2.

Config seems to be in AppDataLocal2K GamesMafia IISaves. Though my videoconfig.cfg looks like this:

Code:

   0 0 6048 1200 1 0 0 0
   
   
   
   
   
   



Edit: I'm not the only one having the brightness issue.

From Steam forums:
When you close down the game, press CTRL ALT DEL, then hit cancel and your brightness should be reset!

This worked for me, I am running a 5770 and Win7 Ultimate 64-bit

Yes, I'm getting only the 3x resolution options, too. But, once actually playing, I don't even notice.

And, as for the "nudie" photos, there are actually five in the demo. So far, I've come across three of them. :)

On my setup I'm not getting that stretching/zooming'upside-down stuff at all. I've played through the demo about 4 times now.

After editing videoconfig.cfg in AppDataLocal2K GamesMafia IISaves I got bezel compensation.
Just entered my full bezel compensated resolution there so it looks like this now,
Code:
0 0 5292 1050 1 0 0 0

In game it creates a x3 resolution automatically now.
