Anyone else have crazy high gpu temperatures while playing the game? I'd play everything else within normal range for my gpu temp limits but with Max Payne 3 i get a extra 10-20c.
And while we're at it, anyone else is getting stuck on the various loading/connecting screens playing multiplayer? Because it happens with me all the fucking time. Well, not all the time, but often enough to drive me fucking nuts, especially when it happens [b]after[/b] the match.
[QUOTE=ShaunOfTheLive;36256024]Sniping is always going to be a big part of multiplayer gaming... deal with it :frogshades:[/QUOTE] Yeah I understand that, but people should be able to see that this game in particular is far more fun and far more balanced when it's done close up and frantic. That's the whole essence of Max Payne. Fuck New York Minute gets frustrating after long periods. currently half a second off platinum on Chapter V Part I, and no matter what I do, I can't get to the end of the level again without the time being about 30 seconds too slow.
I don't get the ending to Max Payne. Not the last level, but the very last cutscene before the credits. [sp]I found it really cheesy and un-max payne-ey. They could have easily came up with something more satisfying than the end they made. I actually went "what dafuk, thats the ending?" when I saw it the first time.[/sp] Everything else, I loved to death, it is visually amazing and very well optimized, Mccaffrey's voice acting is amazing in this one, and MP1+2 I would say "the narration is pretty poopy" if I compared it to this one. The story is pretty entertaining but it's[sp]annoying how Max fucks up almost every single thing he tries to do and ends up having to hundreds of bad guys because he knocked down a barrel. It happens a little too much.[/sp]

It actually ends on a high note for Max, and I hope they don't make another Max Payne sequel.[/sp] [sp]What would you expect him to do when he knocked over that barrel in a room with 25+ bad guys? Run away like a little girl? His natural grace and finesse decided for him.[/sp]
[QUOTE=endorphinsam;36257183]. The story is pretty entertaining but it's[sp]annoying how Max fucks up almost every single thing he tries to do and ends up having to hundreds of bad guys because he knocked down a barrel. It happens a little too much.[/sp][/QUOTE] He keeps knocking things over because he's pretty much drunk out of his mind all the time. I doubt he would be able to go all Sam Fisher on them. Plus, it would be boring if you didn't get to fight tons of bad guys at once. It's what makes it a Max Payne game.

Also, that song at the start, thats from the James Bond theme yeah? Where did you get that one from? I like the sound of it.
Just finished story mode, best slow motion action game in a while, story wise... not so much, but it was okay. And my first multiplayer match? It was fun as shit! I gota shake off my habit of shootdodging everywhere, though, or I'l be meat in a very short order.

The multiplayer netcode really needs to be fixed. As in NOW. I couldn't play multiplayer at all yesterday unless I made myself a private match.

Been against two cheaters with unlimited health so far, surprise surprise both Russian. Not sure the specifics on how they are doing it, though I can imagine they are required to be host. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdGufnZvjCs[/media]
Max what are you doing [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/t9BDI.jpg[/IMG] Also, does Old-School use the base difficulty of hard or hardcore?
Is that a burst?
Ahaha what the fuck. So here I am doing Score Attack and racking up 10xhit bonus when all the fucking sudden this chair killed me when i touched it. [t]http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/540677806198231991/87E9CDCB64D2CA246DE59FC93A88F410A8CBA102/[/t]

[QUOTE=A big fat ass;36259320]Did you go flying? Could be the new swingset glitch.[/QUOTE] Nope. I Just bumped into it as i was going to jump over the counter and the death screen showed up. :v:
[QUOTE=OwnedByTheDog;36258917]Hard.[/QUOTE] Actually I think it's Normal they're basing it on, I noticed that health and bullet time doesn't go down as fast as Hard on Old School.
I am going insane. Playing on Hard, Chapter 12, when you have to escape that collapsing building. The fucking armored guy with the MG I cannot fucking kill him. Either he kills me or the goddamn building collapses.

I wish I could fucking join. This goddamn matchmaking sucks. I really am putting my trust to Rockstar to fix the MP.
