[QUOTE=soapyluggage;36822453]Question about the story. Spoilers for up to ch. 14
[sp]So did Passos and Payne actually attend the police academy together or was that completely made up? I can't remember anything that said for sure one way or another but Passos pretty much lied about everything else, including what country he was from. But I figure if Passos didn't know Max from before, what would have made the Brancos choose him?[/sp][/QUOTE]
[sp]Max did say he couldn't remember Passos so it wouldn't be hard to make him think that. Besides, for someone who supposedly attended academy with Max, he sure doesn't say shit about their time there. So yeah, I call bullshit that he made up in order to lure Max to Sao Paulo.[/sp]

[sp] Well he did talk more about their time at the academy in the latest Max Payne comic book, and about cases he worked, so he may have actually went to the academy with him. [/sp]

[sp]They probably did, it is just that Max is so shitfaced and it has been so long that he forgot[/sp]

[sp]The last comic book issue dwells a little deeper regarding "Pesos" (ahem, Passos :v:) being in the academy. Max was literally a hero cop to Passos but they never really met personally while they both served in the academy.[/sp]
I love this game so much man. Best $30 ever spent.
I paid $100 for the special edition and I still think it was worth it.
[sp]although maybe not the extra $30 for the rockstar pass I am going to get with the rate the multiplayer is going[/sp]
I used the sound "fix" for Max Payne (I converted, debugged and launched) but the first cutscene is missing sound.
I agree, fix the 1st sniper and maybe the mini-30.
Although I'm doing great with the SAF .40 and M4 super 90.
Is it me or Multiplayer is very unbalanced when you're low level?
This one game I played, I spawned and instantly got blown up by about 5 grenades.
Respawn, spot a guy, shoot him three times, bring him down to 10% Hp with the AK-47, he shoot me once and I die, so I figured it was by headshot but in the killcam, it showed the bullet to be in my hand.
How does one die from a single bullet to the hand?

The MP is by no means of the imagination balanced. We had a guy with a Ballistic Helmet, Heavy Armour and M107 sniping on Hoboken during a Ground war match. No-one could take him down let alone get near the garage.
I really hope the multiplayer can get a major balance overhaul, the snipers literally kill in 1 or 2 shots no matter where in the body, and in most games they top the scoreboard. It's really annoying that I rather be killed with OP pistol loadouts. I don't want the multiplayer to die because it actually is pretty fun when no one is spamming snipers or camping around or if the connection isn't wobbly.
I'd like to be able to use single pistols but there is almost no reason to use them over dual wield.
Small accuracy bonus for literally half the damage done.
I use single pistols anyways because it looks cool.
I use one Ingram.

I actually find, weirdly enough, that 1 PT92 can be as devastating as 2 M1911s. Just need to use it correctly.

I don't understand how you can "use it correctly" when it's statisticaly objective worse overall.
You gain a slight, almost negligable accuracy and weight advantage while maintaining the same rate of fire and practical ammo but having less damage, specifically half.
Single pistols are certainly useable and I've done well but I can't think of how I would be worse off using two.

I see what you're saying but I just seem to find myself doing better with 1 1911 rather than dual. I also think the accuracy does make a difference since most of the kills come from headshots.
Woo! I haven't been able to get money for the summer sale and I thought I missed my chance to get this game, and then one of my friends decided to buy it for me while it was on flash sale. :v:
Just bought the first 2 Max Payne's
MP1's sound is fucked though
Googled it, and the fixes I found don't work
Can anyone help?

Make sure they're installed correctly.
Also make sure it's this one:

Dammit, I started my Hard playthrough of MP3 and I got to the first [sp]New Jersey level[/sp]. I decided to take a break and when I returned to the game my save wasn't there. Now the game was okay regarding difficulty but all that time gone pissed me off.
I got 45k points in Chapter 13 then my game decided to crash >:(
Is everything saved what I unlocked, when I start a complete new game with a new difficulty? I've played it on normal (and it was goddamn hard) and now I want to play it again on hard, but it says, that the previous savegame will be deleted.
Or does it count, if I play each chapter individually on hard?
Diving from the top of a building with a Mac 10 and shooting someone in the street never felt so good.
Ordered this last week, hopefully it will arrive this week coming or the next. I loved MP1/MP2.

That's the one I used, it still doesn't work
What am I doing wrong?
Guess I'll have to reinstall, see if that helps
[editline]21st July 2012[/editline]
figured it out
like an idiot, i wasn't letting it finish, and stopping it at the first error message to try and figure out what was wrong
works now, thanks!
Christ this multiplayer is bad...
Rockstar committed the mortal sin of there being a one-shot kill sniper rifle.
I can't tell what the fuck just happened every time i get killed due to the [b][i]~art~[/b][/i] filters and ridiculous close-up, thus making every death feel like bullshit.
Vendettas are stupid because if I just so happen to kill a person twice then they get my location fixed on their minimap.
Shoot dodge just gets you killed, as shown by the multiple people that have tried to get the jump on me only for me to fill them with lead while they're either still floating in the air or trying to get up.
Maybe I just suck at the game, but it's hard not to call bullshit when the death screens fail to show me the reason.
