NOTE: Anything that has been striked has been reported as being resolved (additional comments may be added if issues are found that link to the original issue) Thanks

Technical Issues:

1: MUCH more optimisation needed; I (and many others) cannot maintain even a steady 60 fps - (PC specs on Steam profile). 'Microstuttering' (frame pacing) is also an issue
2: Players are experiencing random crashes
3: The textures are very poor - blurry and low resolution (not even a texture quality setting)
4. Ultrawide 21:9 resolutions are not correctly supported (3440x1440 for example): the main menu is not correct, the blood splatter box is restriceted to 16:9 and the sides of the screen flickers - Some reports of inccorect HUD scaling however (16:9 HUD despite being on 21:9) - See here: http://i.imgur.com/sBSwRkn.jpg
5: The HUD does not scale correctly at higher resolutions
6: A 'Water Quality' or similar setting should be added
7: View distance sliders should be added - (seperate ones for shadows, objects, NPCs, ect)
8: There needs to be more antialiasing options as FXAA (or TXAA) is not great (makes it even MORE blurry - would like to see MSAA and MFAA (x2, x4, x6)
9: Toggles need to be added for certain effects such as chromatic aberration
10: Toggles should be added for HUD/UI elements (such as the rear view mirror)
11: Clouds day/night cycle is not working correctly sometimes (first its sunny, pops out some darkness and again back to sunny) - Please see this video for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcwTEkeTUpE
12: The extra mouse buttons cannot be bound (mouse 4, 5, ect)
13: Add SLI support
14: Support needs adding for AMD Phenom users ASAP - Crashes, ect. They cannot even get the game loaded - see video here for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fqvjt2-G80
15: Reflections 'bug' out - (see images here for reference: http://i.imgur.com/gqqDldz.png and http://i.imgur.com/o3nqgFQ.png)
16. Lack of Anisotropic Filtering (AF) (4x 8x and 16x) in the settings
17: Ambient Occulusion needs more clear settings (what kind of AO is being used? - SSAO? HBAO? HBAO+?)
18: Add full mouse support to all menus
19: A proper main start menu needs to be added - (with such things as load, options, exit, etc)
20. General bugs/glitchiness - see videos here for examples: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZokdmzvDGA and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iur69T-5_Q and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJEpKmXWuxY
21: Unable to complete first 'Vito Hit' mission - game crashes when about to shot the target - now the gas station backroom is empty. Fixes tried: got Lincoln killed, did another side mission - nothing
22: Some vehicles spawn and explode in the road or while parked (most common when parked) - some times they clip into the floor and start to fly everywhere
23: The brightness seems to go ridiculously high at random intervals - see screenshots here for reference: http://i.imgur.com/DJgUGMZ.png and http://i.imgur.com/5DU2iid.png
24: More camera settings needed - for example: auto centering while driving should be toggleable on/off. Another example: a camera height setting should be added (high, low)
25: The AA setting keeps defaulting to 'High' after a game restart
26: No option to change refresh rate
27: Separate options for aiming/camera inversion and sensitivity should be added
28: No borderless fullscreen in the settings - needs adding
29: The skybox seems low quality - see screenshot here: http://i.imgur.com/zCGXQYu.png and video here (1:50): https://youtu.be/QjKdZ7DuFAQ?t=115
30: No sound from boats
31: Button prompts not appearing when using DS4/Steam Controller without third-party programs
32: The wiretap node activation can bug - see video here for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jbn4xGZiCsk
33: Dead bodies can often glitch through walls - see screenshot here: http://i.imgur.com/PebwpI6.png
34. An option to toggel mouse acceleration on and off should be added
35: Sometimes your car is found sunken into the ground and pops up when you enter
36: Key unkillable targets will slowly move back when punched while "downed". With enough punches, the target will go through the wall, and cannot be interrogated. An example is when you raid the warehouse where Nicki takes over later on. On the top floor office room where the target is, the player can punch him through the brick wall.
37: Add the option to turn off AA altogether
38: Add a sharpening (low, medium, high) setting
39: Vehicle headlights do not show in the rear view mirror
40: More sound options should be added (such as Stereo, 5.1 and 7.1)
41: Random infinite loading screens after cutscenes

Gamplay Issues:

1: Very bad AI. The AI do not seem to act how they should - enemies/cops/people doesnt react to your actions well - they can see you stabbing somebody and they still stand and wait for you to kill them too, or cops shoot you but after that they wait, or dont notice you killed somebody at all - even if its not from long distance. Police also do not notice traffic violations - Please see this video for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMEXZmXTm_U
2: NPCs often do not react to your car
3: The AI cars usually go in the opposite lane and start to go in circles.
4: The same tutorial messages pop up more than once (often they are not relevant to the situation)
5: Player's cars are not found where they last left them
6: There doesn't seem to be any way to save your game
7: The ability to replay missions should be added
8: An option to turn off the radio completely should be added
9: [Bug] - No boats spawn during the 'Are We Cool' mission
10: Some players are finding the 'Hard' difficulty not hard enough - maybe the addition of harder difficulties would be good
11: Add controller presets
12: Add multiple reticle options (such as a simple white dot)
13: Soms mission waypoints do not show - examples:
- Destroy Black Market Products
- Destroy Slot Maschines
- Bust Up The Street Games
- Find and Follow The Bagmen
- Find and Steal the Dead Drops
14: After completeing the main game, missions such as 'Steal the Truck' and 'Steal the Boat' are still shown on the map. There is nothing to steal at said points
15: A Vargas painting is unobtainable in the Casino after the Casino mission (cannot interact with the doors to get back in)

Other 'Issues':

1: No wildlife : Only see is alligators - (no birds, cats, dogs, rats, ect)
2: No train/tram even though there is a track
3: A lot of things cannot be climbed on, even if Lincoln can reach it. Example: A car was laying on its side - it was unclimbable
4: There's no fast travel or Taxi system
5: No bullet holes when shooting someone (only blurry, faint splatter)
6: No blood puddles when doing brutal melee kills
7: Bodies should remain ragdolls after death
8: The ability to close doors after they have been opened should be added
9: The option to either lockpick or break car windows should be added
10: The ability to purchase food from restauraunts should be added - Could be specific to each restauraunt/bar (each location has it's own kinds of food) to eat/drink to restore health
11: The police do not drop any weapons or ammo. This could be added
12: Add barbers around town so Lincoln can change his hair/beard style
13: Only doors that are locked are kickable; all doors should be (unlocked ones)

Achievements errors
I Recruited all 16 bosses, i checked in archive, but no achievement.
Also I have much time ago achievement for earn 500k$, but I spend all I have and no achievement for spend money.
Also I done all Burke's, Vito's and Cassandra quests - but no "Family" achievement.
Is there ways to solve my problems?

[ҳҲҳJohnnyGanjaҳҲҳ]

there is no steam overlay while in-game, only on the launch menu !!! how do i solve that ?!?!? also i want 144hz support, my pc goes beyond 90fps moslty and i am running the most currect crimson driver !
Besides that, this game is a joke, its not even a mafia game ! it lacks content ! it like its sandbox freedom ! where are the shops and why isnt there almost anywhere to go and have a drink or eat or buy clothes ?!?

because its a "sandbox" game without a real sandbox- after finishing the game there is not realy much to do i only had to take the last collecting objects & the stuff for the junction, but thats another problem.

Well that's special. Have no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ idea here, seems like the game can't go through with it's script. Reload a checkpoint if possible.

normaly you can change them: choose one of the underbosses and give him or her the district

there are navigation bugs in the IRA no questions missions-
the navigation changes all time or the targets are not on the map.

Happened to me as well... the cars are still there but navi just jumps randomly.. In this case you have to go all manual!, just ignore the navy and use the map I guess?


Also I am having problems with getting 2 of the achievements one for Hole in your pocket, the other is for No loose Ends. For Hole in your pocket some said that the money spend carries over but apparently after restarting the game for the third time and spending over 1 mil+ money I am still not getting the achievement. In my first run I even spend over 500k and nothing, on my third run atm and not sure I will get it.. but so far I am close to finishing the storyline and nothing.

AS for No loose ends,, it's JUST MESSED UP. I tried TWICE to get the achievement, first time I killed all racket bosses (no wiretapping), and didn't get it. Then I thought is might be problem with the wiretapping but boy was I wrong, Finished getting ALL the rackets in my third run and I wiretapped all the rackets(apart from first) and then killed the racket bosses... But Nothing at all..

Sorry i know that you know that:D
I just wanted to help somehow- and i don´t have a xbox one i have a ps4 and my pc here-
anyway yes it looks like a gamebreaking glitch. I didn´t had that issue before, just couldn´t get through a door at the "Boxing match" mission, but after seen a ton of bugs and glitches i believe that in a secound. A update for your game didn´t help?

Update i´ve found the same issue report on the official 2k site from december 2016:

After killing Cassandra and then killing Remy Duval I cannot assign a district to anyone. Immediately after the cut scene where the two remaining bosses argue for why they should get the district the game freezes and won't allow me to do anything I can't get past this point. I am playing on PS4

But there is no solution for that for now and it happens on ps4 too.

For some reason and only in mafia 3 my sound is skipping like a needle on an old lp record

There is a problem with recruiting bosses and wiretapping. I ran into this glitch with Frankie Bernard in the bath house, I wiretapped all areas in downtown, yet when I confronted the boss, there is no option to spare him - Lincoln always kill him.

He can't be recruited
Some bosses are just too big piles of ♥♥♥♥ for Lincoln to consider recruiting

Is it just me or when it rains, which is most of the time, your frames drop considerablly? Like i have a GTX960 w/ 2gb, its not the strongest or best but I should be able to play on low with out the rain dropping my frames from 30 to bouncing around 20-10. Also every time I go to do a race it rains no matter what I try to do, restarting the race, leaving and doing a mission then coming back it just starts raining again even if it wasn't raining when I go to start a race it'll rain.

I have the same problem, but in the end I just got used to it (GTX 950M with 4gb here)
