When Mafia 3 was finally released, it didn't receive a pleasant reception from the fans. Well, who wouldn't when the fps was locked to 30? Let alone the various bugs and glitches players discovered. Regardless, it's still shaping to be one of the best titles ever released this year. But hey, there's one thing that makes this game extra special. And it's something players can't simply find in any other titles out there.

According to Kotaku, the navigation system of Mafia 3 is on another level. It allows players to let their selves enjoy the vastness of New Bordeaux. Sure, other open-world games may have offer a similar feature of sort. However, when talking about how its process works, 2K Games' title is definitely a winner.

Like any other games out there, the navigation system of Mafia 3 offers a GPS-driven minimap, which can be found in the lower part of the screen. Obviously, this helps players on their way to missions and other locations. It's also safe to say that the minimap can sometimes take the fun of enjoying the beautiful surroundings, as players busy themselves looking at it. Fortunately though for M3, it's not.

Mafia 3, thanks to its robust navigation system, augments the said map with various street signs. The latter appear on the side of the road, and can be seen as players go from Point A to Point B. In the game, each block has its own sign, something that helps the player to decide whether to go straight or do a turn.

With such feature installed, Mafia 3 players will never have to bother themselves looking at the minimap. Unless of course, if they want to. In a sense, the above mentioned system (the road signs in particular) works as turn-by-turn GPS that is displayed just right ahead of the player.

Mafia 3 players will surely agree that this is something that open-world titles should apply. They can adapt it in similar fashion or form. It'll give gamers the chance to enjoy the surrounding or environment within the game.
