Max Payne 3 Painful Memories DLC Coming December 4th

Posted on November 26 2012, 11:08am | Author: R* Q | Filed Under: Games

Inspired by the grisly shootouts from Max’s past, the Painful Memories Pack will bring four new maps and much more to Max Payne 3 Multiplayer this December. 

Revisit the subway bloodbath from the original Max Payne in the Roscoe Street Subway map. Flashback to the dingy Hoboken watering hole at Marty’s Bar, open fire on the posh Branco family yacht in Shoot First and wage Gang Wars at Canal De Panamá. The Painful Memories Pack also includes the IMG 5.56 and UAR-21 assault rifles, new avatars, items and the Hangover Burst, which causes enemies to respawn with blurred vision, reduced stamina and health.
 
Check out the first screens from this pack below, which will be available on December 4th for 800 Microsoft Points on Xbox LIVE and $9.99 on PlayStation Network and PC (Rockstar Pass owners will receive this content at no additional charge).
 
We're also making the new shoot out at the Roscoe Street Subway station artwork above available as desktops and avatars at rockstargames.com/downloads, along with a pair of original illustrations from the Hostage Negotiation Pack featuring the Filhos De Ogum wielding the IA2 Assault Rifle and other weaponry as they attempt to dominate the Estádio Do Galatians and O Palácio Strip Club multiplayer maps.

New at Social Club: Multiplayer Match Reports

Posted on November 20 2012, 5:08pm | Author: R* Q | Filed Under: Games, Social Club

Newly introduced as an addition to the Max Payne 3 Multiplayer features at Social Club, you can now relive every bullet of your multiplayer experience and learn from your specific history to improve your game with the new Social Club Match Reports feature. Just like a football coach studying last week's game film to plot and plan out and adjust upcoming game plans, Match Reports provide you with in-depth analysis of your past forays into the battleground to allow you to better understand what tactics are working for you and which tactics are causing your downfall. Logged in users with Max Payne 3 linked can access Match Reports directly at http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/maxpayne3/mp/matchreports. Read on for a breakdown of each element of the feature, and helpful tips on how to use Match Reports to take your gameplay to the next level.

 
At the top of the Match Reports page, you'll see a timeline of your most recent matches, sortable by multiplayer game mode. The feature records the gory details of your previous ten matches, so check back in regularly to keep up to date with the info. 
 
Once you've selected a game, the Heatmap (as seen above) will indicate the flashpoints and bottlenecks where your opponents are zeroing their sights, so you can use this information to out-think and then out-flank them the next time you roll out on to that map. Scroll through a complete timeline of all the kills from that match using the play-by-play navigation on the left-hand side - with ability to see which weapons were used, who was using them and where they stood to finish off their opponent. 
 
Selecting the skull to the right of the Heatmap will bring up Weapon Usage information, which lets you see which weapons work best for you, your team and your opponents. In combination with the Social Club Arsenals feature, this will give you everything you need to know about which weapons are best for you on which maps, so there's no excuse not to up your KDR. Trying to figure out whether it's more efficient and effective to aim for the head or the gut when targeting enemies? Selecting the body icon will pull up the Damage Breakdown, which will tell you where and how damage was dealt by individual players and by entire teams who won or lost that specific match.
 
 
The Match Reports page also displays your stats for all weapons used in a given match. Keep tabs on your arch-enemy Nemeses and find out which players you should be targeting for easy kills.

Let us know what you think of the new feature in comments and stay tuned for continuing Social Club feature updates and enhancements soon.
