Gear Up for Wednesday's Max Payne 3 Social Club Multiplayer Event on PSN

Posted on August 1 2012, 5:25am | Author: R* K | Filed Under: Games, Social Club

Update: The event has now ended. Thanks to everyone who joined us and look out for more Social Club Multiplayer Events in the coming weeks.

On Wednesday August 1, 12-3pm ET / 5-8pm BST, our squad of Rockstar Games developers will be heading into Max Payne 3 multiplayer on PSN. There'll be a live double-stream, Rockstar hosted chat, event leaderboard and Sweepstakes to win a deluxe prize pack, including Max Payne statue, Hawaiian shirt and bullet keychain, all over at the Social Club Multiplayer Event page. We've assembled an elite team for this particular throwdown, and we're going to be on the lookout for cohesive Crews and creative Loadouts as we discard casings across all multiplayer modes and maps, including those on the Local Justice DLC.

To join us, look for 'Social Club Multiplayer Event' on the in-game Playlists menu and keep an eye out for the following PSN IDs:

  • MaxPayneDev1
  • MaxPayneDev2
  • MaxPayneDev3
  • MaxPayneDev4

Also make sure you're following us on our Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and Steam (for PC) pages to get word of additional impromptu multiplayer sessions all summer long and beyond...

    • deepdarkbasementon August 4 2012, 1:22pmReply
      ... does anyone besides me really want a Hawaiian shirt because of Max Payne 3 & because the fact they look really colorful?
    • RoyalL_geniuson August 4 2012, 1:36amReply
      I see the ranking system has some glitches in it saw one specific crew get 2 million do in a matter of minutes or is that just rewards you get when u hit a certain amount to get the reward ?
      • R* Yon August 4 2012, 11:55amReply
        @RoyalL_genius Thanks for letting us know, please report that instance and those players so our development team can look into it:

        @R* Y I see it all the time in gang wars people come into the room with 200-500k xp and if they get lucky they keep it or they get disconnected at the last match

      I don't know about anyone else but I think bot training would be a welcomed addition to multiplayer with no experience earned or weapon level increase just you,your unlocked gear,maybe a friend or three and some semi-intelligent baddies to put to the ground plus it gives people the chance to experiment with load-outs and learn the iayout of the maps.Check out my open enrollment crew Guns4Fun and join,no requirements or certain platforms.
      • RoyalL_geniuson August 4 2012, 1:38amReply
        @budthebomber It should be a section in the game where you can leave notes for the crew to see. If no one has a computer to access the site. It would help with communication and keep Crew members also.. Something I think they should really add in my opinion

      I missed the event. But a guys gotta earn some dough. :) I hope it was a blast!
      • FugetSudo_Jron August 2 2012, 9:58pmReply
        @ChicagoEnigma it was a good event! the devs were tearing it up! at one point, towards the end, it was dev vs. dev! there was even a R* Feud brewing!!
      • NYPDMAXPAYNEon August 3 2012, 12:00amReply
        @ChicagoEnigma It was a damn good time
      • ChicagoEnigmaon August 3 2012, 11:03amReply
        @FugetSudo_Jr & @NYPDMAXPAYNE : It figures an event I can't make it to, an epic match happens.. I'll have to check out youtube for event videos. :) It's rare I miss a match, I think this is the 1st in well over a year, but at least the last one I checked in for a few minutes from my phone while in another state! It's good to hear it was a great time. See you next event!

        @ChicagoEnigma Plenty more chances to play with us are coming up. We actually just finished a playsession on our Twitch page. Follow us on Twitter, Facebook, Google+ and Steam to get word on when we'll be doing more of these:

        Hi Rockstar, I have participated in all of the Social Club Multiplayer events on Playstation so far but have to have a game with one of the Developers. Is there any tips you can give on improving your chances of playing with one? i.e. is it best to continually change lobbies or do you guys tend to just go into one lobby and stay there for a few games??
      • Genesicityon August 2 2012, 10:44amReply
        Really off topic but just finished story mode for the first time ...One of the best stories I played in my 25+ years of gaming and Max Payne 3 definitely has a place in my all time top 5

        Thanks for a wonderful experience once again R*
        • Sprunk95on August 2 2012, 11:01amReply
          @Genesicity You're slow man :D
          But the story is epic really best game ever and the best game by Rockstar
        • Genesicityon August 2 2012, 11:07amReply
          @Sprunk95 You're right I am real slow but only with R* games as I always save them for a rainy day or to rekindle my amazement in gaming..Sorta like a really old wine, you don't guzzle that up but you just enjoy it when the time is right:)
        • Sprunk95on August 2 2012, 11:14amReply
          @Genesicity The Rockstar games are very long to complete that's what makes them so fun and amazing
        • Rollawon August 2 2012, 12:11pmReply
          @Genesicity Agreed. The single player campaign is top notch!
        • Rollawon August 2 2012, 12:12pmReply
          @Sprunk95 Slow? lol he's already maxed out in multiplayer hahaha :D
