Thursday's Doubleheader Social Club Multiplayer Event with Triple XP in Red Dead Redemption and Max Payne 3

Posted on February 7 2013, 10:00am | Author: R* Y | Filed Under: Games, Social Club

Update: Triple XP was live for both Max Payne 3 and Red Dead Redemption all weekend. Hope you guys enjoyed it. Thanks to everyone that joined in on the multiplayer events, including the group in the chat and watching the streams on Social Club, the other crowd on Twitch and all the players in-game.
 
Thursday's scheduled Social Club Multiplayer Event session from our Winter Calendar will be a live-streaming twin bill with an afternoon of Red Dead Redemption from 4-7PM Eastern plus a matinee of Max Payne 3 playing new modes like Run & Stun and Dead Men Walking from the recently released Deathmatch Made in Heaven DLC.
 
Both events include our customary double live stream and Rockstar-hosted live chat over at the Social Club Multiplayer Events page, as well as a sweepstakes where one lucky winner per event will win a pair of custom controllers, or in the case of Max Payne 3 they'll have the option of emblazoning a Crew Emblem and Gamertag/ID on the prize controllers or PC mouse. We're also including the Rockstar Machine tee, Max Payne 3 Logo Tee and stickers.
 
There will also be Triple XP for both games active throughout the events and right through until the end of the weekend.
 
Max Payne 3 @ 12pm-3pm EST / 5-8pm GMT:
  • MaxPayneDev1 (Xbox 360)
  • MaxPayneDev2 (PS3)
  • MaxPayneDev1 (PC on Twitch)
  • MaxPayneDev2 (Xbox 360)
 
Red Dead Redemption @ 4-7pm EST / 9pm-midnight GMT:
  • RedDeadDev2 (Xbox 360)
  • RedDeadDev1 (PS3)
  • RedDeadDev3 (Xbox 360 on Twitch)
  • RedDeadDev3 (PS3)

COUNTDOWN
If you're unsure of when the events will begin in your timezone, have a look at the countdown on the Social Club mutliplayer events page.

HOW TO FIND US IN MAX PAYNE 3
Enter multiplayer and select the Social Club Multiplayer Event playlist. We'll play a mix of Soft Lock and Free Aim so look for the names listed above.
 
HOW TO FIND US IN RED DEAD
When the first event starts up Thursday, enter Normal difficulty multiplayer. This places you into a public Free Roam lobby. You should be able to run into a Rockstar player this way, but if you want you can send a friend request to one of the above IDs. Their lists might be full as most services only allow a max of 100 friend requests. We recommend partying up and playing with other Social Club members until the point when you're able to join us.
 
FUTURE PLAYSESSIONS
If you want more time to play our games with us, your best bet is to follow us at our official Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and Steam pages so you can get the word when we're going online for some impromptu multiplayer...

    Where is the Red dead redemption PC version?

      Corvettezr1-13 is one of the biggest cheaters to play Red Dead Redemption on the Playstation 3. He can frequently be found on Reddead.us and Gamefreeze.net under the aliases Corvettezr1-13 and Vette. If anyone knows any other aliases he uses on the PS3 post it to expose him. The purpose of this message is to inform legitimate gamers that his use of an aimbot and modified controller will more than likely continue on games like GTA V and the next iteration of Red Dead Redemption when it is released.

        Interesting discovery on Max Payne 3:

        The following maps have been inaccessible for me and other players (currently in one of the formerly inaccessible servers / maps in discussion with other players now) for what might be quite some time?

        Team Deathmatch (Free-Aim):
        Garage
        Old Favela Favela

        The following playlist appeared for the first time ever today also, but disappeared once I restarted Xbox and reverted to it's normal list:

        (Free Aim)
        Hardcore Deathmatch
        Hardcore Team Deathmatch
        Hardcore Large Deathmatch
        Hardcore Large Team Deathmatch
        Hardcore Gang Wars

        A few of us discussed how we had never seen any of this before, does this mean there has been a networking issue for many players for a long time, or are these maps / playlists new (I'm guessing not as I have seen the Hardcore playlists available in the past, but on a restart they have disappeared and playlists reverted)? A couple players in the server claim these to be maps they've been playing for a long time and the playlist aforementioned on their screen every time they start the game? What's going on here?

        I don't want to open a support ticket, due to bad past experiences and having a pending ticket, but if someone could pass this on to the dev's it would be much appreciated? Thanks.

        What's up with the match reports? It's always way off. I just played a 37-0-1 large TDM @ docks and it gets reported as 33-3.. 3 kills were from using calc, but still I didn't die once and it says I died 3 times.. lame.
