Bykovsky7 Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 (edited) Hello everyone. I purchased a physical collective edition of Mafia Trilogy a couple of months ago - it looks really nice and tidy. I've earned platinum trophies in Mafia 1 and 2 already, so now I'm about to start trophy hunting Mafia 3. I've read a lot about this game and I'm afraid about potential glitches, especially with two trophies related to the racked bosses. Please can anyone confirm whether these trophies are still glitched or perhaps the developers have addressed these? The next tthing is the optimal roadmap - what shall I focus on during my first playthrough? Thanks, guys.

Crispy_Oglop Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 This mega thread is probably the most important one to read and keep in mind before you start playing. Many of the game-spanning trophies are unpredictable, glitchy and poorly optimised. People have found ways to get around most of the issues, because the developer & publisher clearly don't give a shit sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheJimmonator Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 If the latest version of the game is still 1.12 then it's glitched (and will likely never be fixed). There's a pretty detailed thread somewhere about downgrading to 1.09 which was the last working version to get the trophies (pretty sure this is doable with the physical disc). There's also this video - https://vimeo.com/494405897 It seems daunting but it isn't. Save yourself the headache and make sure you're playing on 1.09. The game is decent and there's no point trying to manage on 1.12 and inevitably hating the game when one of the trophies bugs on you. This is coming from someone who didn't do enough research beforehand and played on 1.12 making it so I had to do 3 full runs. In terms of what to focus on in the first playthrough, get to the part early on where you learn to wiretap, and then go around and wiretap absolutely everywhere on the map (without progressing the story) then make a backup save to a USB. Then spare every informant and every racket boss, do every side mission, finish the game with all three of your underboss pals alive. Reload the save from your USB and kill everything that moves including two of your underbosses. I won't go into the details of all that here but it's all relatively straightforward once you're playing! Good luck 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoesusHCrust Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 I had a load of trophies glitch on me. Very frustrating when you've spent hours playing through the game and then trophies glitch. It made me really hate this game! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wanted to focus on Definitive Editon here in this topic - I was hoping there is no need for playing with downgrading this game to the previous versions etc...

Komrade_Dusty Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 I platted Mafia 3 last summer. No glitched trophies for me. Either go for keeping all bosses alive and balanced in your first run, or only one boss. Do the opposite your second game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bykovsky7 Posted May 7, 2021 Author Share Posted May 7, 2021 Yesterday evening I wiretapped and flipped the very last racket boss (16 in total) and no trophy popped up. I've been following Lincoln's journal through the game (all 16 racket bosses are mentioned there as Lincoln decided to keep them alive) and I have ticked all bosses on my list just to prevent missing anything. We live in 2021 and bloody things like this shouldn't be happening... releasing a Definitive Edition of a game with no bugs fixed. Shame 2K...

Bykovsky7 Posted May 8, 2021 Author Share Posted May 8, 2021 Yes another trophy is bugged for me in Mafia 3 Definitive Edition... "Family" didn't pop up once I assigned all the districts equally to everyone (3 to Vito, 3 to Cassandra and 3 to Burke), completed their side missions (unlocked 3 different trophies for side missions) and shipment tasks for their guys (there is 2/2 completed tasks for all three of them). All related trophies popped up, but no "Family" trophy. I need to downgrade the game to version 1.09 somehow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossHour4 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 It pains me to see so many people have trouble with this game, since i enjoyed it so much and had nothing glitch on me. How is it that someone can completely avoid glitches, meanwhile thousands of people can not?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoryGreg Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 (edited) First playthrough, flipped all rackets and trust level with all bosses. Trophies that didn't pop : Baby,you're Rich Man (well over 800k), Family (all boss missions have been done) and The New Boss (all racket bosses haven been flipped). It's a real shame of the gliched trophies. Don't think I have it in me to do another 2 playthroughs. Edited August 1, 2021 by GoryGreg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately no, version 1.09 it's the only sure way to get the platinum without issues. Save yourself the hassle and downgrade the game to that version, it's not that complicated.

Latest update AKA patch 1.12 is buggy for base game trophies, but it is fine for DLC trophies. Your best bet for earning the platinum trophy is to install patch 1.09.

Refer to the other linked post, it's very easy to downgrade the game. And it's usually best to start a fresh new game to avoid other issues.

Now I have 100% trophies in all three Mafia games. Thanks anyway! Cheers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
