This was always the difference between PC and Console Max Payne to me in the past. The ability to dive and headshot everyone before you hit the ground.
aww manI played both 360 and the PC version at PAX. Both run and control awesome.
Too long of a sequence for a gif. Well, at least while containing a reasonable file size for the web.
The hands on previews all pretty much say it's a pretty difficult game. Cover is used only to plan out your next move and the AI is super aggressive. That along with no regenerating health and the fact that you have to build up bullet time I think that that it's safe to say that the game won't be a push over.My only worry about this video? I'm hoping they're playing on easy mode or something, because it looks like bullet time plus constant moving makes you damn near invincible (or rather the enemies have mega-shit aim) . I mean, guys with a shotgun two feet from him are missing him entirely. Bullet Time should still have strategy to it, not just a "okay now you can charge into the middle of the group of enemies and not worry about it."
Just saw the video, bullet holes in bodies, I can't think of another game that I've seen that in before, and it looks awesome, can't wait.
I think they did that in MP2 as well, if not they already had that "spin reload" in bullet time anyway. Either way, it doesn't break the flow of gameplay and probably makes it more fun.DerZuhälter;36888085 said:Am I the only one to notice the mid-flight autoreload?
That's the only iffy thing I can say about this game yet. Can't wait!
I disagree here. I'm not sure if it was their setup or early build, but the 360 version which I played twice on two different console and TV setups has pretty terrible input delay on aiming and movement.I played both 360 and the PC version at PAX. Both run and control awesome.
Yeah, I was playing another level where I had 10% health, 0 painkillers (medpacks) and I had to fight 5 people on low ground who were advancing and throwing grenades.This was always the difference between PC and Console Max Payne to me in the past. The ability to dive and headshot everyone before you hit the ground.
The early part of the game most were being shown is very easy. I was playing a different level where I didn't have 6 painkillers and enemies were more keen on pushing forward.My only worry about this video? I'm hoping they're playing on easy mode or something, because it looks like bullet time plus constant moving makes you damn near invincible (or rather the enemies have mega-shit aim) . I mean, guys with a shotgun two feet from him are missing him entirely. Bullet Time should still have strategy to it, not just a "okay now you can charge into the middle of the group of enemies and not worry about it" insta-own button. Hopefully it just looks like that to make for a good trailer...
It's obviously harder nowadays since games are so complex but I'm hoping for a continuation of Max Payne's awesome modding community with 3.
As a bonus the PC version has ALL the options you'd expect. No GTA IV bullshit.
MSAA? As far as I could tell, that was the only thing obvious missing from GTA4.

The PC demo was running either FXAA or MSAA.This. I need to know this.
But then it wouldn't be Max Payne.the bullet time looks cool but i almost want to play it without bullet time.

by the gods! just saw all the tech video.. the video on the targeting and weapons where he drops the bus on the two guys... holy shit! please someone make a gif of that please.
The video was nice because the game is nice, but they're running thin on the stuff to show( or rather: explain).
We need the goddamn game.
I'd prefer a new cinematic trailer, at this point.
There will be another Multiplayer video soon.
Another trailer? i don't know, they already showed enough i think. I rather watch Max shooting baddies instead of showing important stuff from the story.
Well you don't have to show much, it just has to be cool and fill up the time between now and release, to not let people forget about the game.
You know, some creative editing, a nice music..

Those trailers works best for me without sound. That voice just reminds me of the Apple commercials.
When are they showing the PC version? Any news on that build?
I am betting the next things we see will be part 2 of the multiplayer stuff. Then of course a launch trailer next month....Then the game will be out!
Remember when we were all like "WTF, he's bald, worst game ever, Rockstar sucks! They ruined Max Payne! NOT GOING TO BUY!"
heh good times.

I'm still on that though ... But for many other reasons.Remember when we were all like "WTF, he's bald, worst game ever, Rockstar sucks! They ruined Max Payne! NOT GOING TO BUY!"
