[ALL] Max Payne 3

[Twigg4075]

The M10 is the SMG in the Thief(?) loadout. I like it, but it's an absolute piece of shit at long range.

My mistake. It's called the Mini-30.

I went in and customized a few loadouts. You really have to keep an eye on the weight meter at the bottom. Every little thing you do adds weight to the loadout. I also finally figured out what the special abilities are. Depending on which one you have equipped the more adrenaline you save up the better it is. There is one that allows you to see enemies faster. The next level allows you to see them from much further away. The third and final level makes them visible to your entire team.

I still have no idea how to use the abilities in multiplayer.

I equipped the ability that boosts your team's health, but I wasn't able to trigger it.

Oh, you have to trigger it? I thought it was automatic or when you used your bullet time?

You have to press R3 (down on the Right Stick).

It eats up your Adrenaline meter that you earn from kills, looting, etc.

Also, with the Tiered system, you gotta pick and choose between whether you'd rather have small benefits right then and there or something BIG later on.

EX: If you equip "Paranoia" and get it to Tier 3, you can cause the other team to turn on each other due to mistaken identity with the added "bonus" of bounty money for doing so. :lol:

My game came today. Will play late tonight.

This games single player reminds me of the first Punisher movie with all the drinking alone scenes and then being a one man army against a gang of thugs.

I'll start putting this to good use the next time I play.

 

[BigBucs]

Im hopping straight online. Im know Im finna get fucked up.

 

[JayDizzle]

Just beat the SP (on Medium with a LOT of retries).

I dig the story and the last Act is the stuff of Summer Blockbuster action movies.

If nothing else, it's worth a rent if you aren't into MP but are looking for a good-to-great cover shooter.

So cool it hurts...

Join Us for the First Official Max Payne 3 Multiplayer Events at Social Club this Friday & Saturday - Win Custom Controllers with Your CREW Emblem

Get ready for the very first of many official Max Payne 3 Social Club Multiplayer Events lined up, kicking off this weekend in grand fashion - this Friday May 18th from 4-7PM Eastern on PSN and this Saturday May 19th from 1-4PM Eastern on Xbox LIVE (with many more dates to follow into June and to be announced all summer long and beyond).

This is your first chance to rally your CREW to face off with and against the ROCKSTAR CREW of Max Payne 3 developers from Rockstar Studios worldwide on the live streamed broadcast (now with a double-stream as announced last week). For the first time ever, there is now a special in-game Social Club Multiplayer Event Playlist that you'll see in your Multiplayer menu of playlists active only during the scheduled event times. Just jump into that playlist to look for the Rockstar Crew (Gamertags and IDs below) in lobbies or to start your own game - there's also now a Social Club Event Leaderboard for players and CREWS to show and prove at each event.

Plus we're giving away a truly unique special grand prize - on both Friday and Saturday during event hours, we'll have a sweepstakes open at the Event page to enter to win a pair of PS3 or Xbox 360 controllers customized with your ID and your CREW emblem. These bad boys will be blacked out, hand-painted with a serious matte black finish and solid black buttons and your CREW emblem proudly tailored on. 10 runners-up each day will also win a Max Payne 3 Prize Pack with an official tee, bullet keychain, pill box and deluxe sticker pack.

You can also join the live Social Club chat on the Events page to spectate, comment on the action, and talk about your favorite Max Payne 3 moments and modes. The Social Club chat has also been enhanced with new features to show which of your Social Club Friends are logged in so you can call out your mates and Crew members at will.

If you pre-ordered from Best Buy, check your email associated with your Rewards Zone membership. I just got a code for the Pill Bottle today.

 

[Twigg4075]

I didn't get an email, but I also didn't pre-order before April 15th.

Anyone jumping on for the event? I am. Is there anything special we need to do?

I'm going to play some of the single player and hopefully we'll have some guys on that want to play.

 

[JayDizzle]

As soon as I finish editing this podcast, I'm jumping on.

Bad Day Becker might make an appearance if DM ends up on the menu.

 

[Twigg4075]

I just jumped on the Social Event. Handle It ignored my invite like a bitch.

 

[BigBucs]

I played the past 2 days trying to get the hang of the game. I am using button layout 4 because you can sprint the same way you can on COD but I dont like how you have to go about switching to your grenades/flashbangs instead of their being a separate button to throw them with. Im also have no idea what all those perks are. I get some shit called bullet time and dont know what it does.

Is there a section on the rockstar website that breaks all the multiplayer shit down regarding the perks and game modes? Im pretty lost when playing but still manage to hold my own.

I use the same control scheme. Switching weapons is fucking stupid.

 

[padman59]

Some bad news Twigg. You have to roll 1000 times to finish the High Roller grind.

 

[Rylo]

Anyone playing late tonight?
