Since we first challenged Social Club Crews to step up and take on our Rockstar Dev Crew in Max Payne 3 Multiplayer, the battles have been flowing fierce and fast, each one streamed live via the Rockstar Games Twitch TV page. Facing off against some of the most passionate and dedicated Crews out there has shown us both the thrills of victory as well as some agonizing defeat, as you can see from the box score results below. Read on for the full report from the battlefields over the past couple months...
Proving that the most skilled Free Aim PC player Crews are truly an elite and rarefied breed,
our most recent game held on January 15th saw the Dev Crew on the wrong end of a 3 - 0 thrashing at the merciless hands of
The Beer Barons Crew. The Beer Barons let slip the dogs of war over the course of three games, but were charitable enough to let our Devs win one round in each of the Gang Wars. Things looked grim off the bat in the São Paulo Bus Depot as
Snuser offed MaxPayneDev1 for the first of many times, just as scoring began. Brandishing dual PT92s,
xOpiate30x also had a big showing. The Team Deathmatch in the Nova Esperança was the real kicker as the Devs succumbed by a wide margin.
Porosenok85, number two on the Crew’s leaderboards out of their total 69 members, flexed his BEER muscles throughout the game, as did
Narbe974 and
Qlw34k.
The two games prior to that however were a reversal of such misfortune, as the Rockstar Devs notched a 3-0 win against the
Mp3 Killers Crew last Saturday the 12th. Things got off to a bloody start during the Gang Wars of the Nova Esperança when MaxPayneDevDev1 rocked
LAgamer4life by way of the IA2. After a couple of minutes of one-sided brutality at the hands of the Devs,
Chillwar82 decided his mates needed to wake up and did so by blasting Dev2 not once but twice, first with the AR and again with the 1911. From there, the round was a ping pong match that the Devs eked out 58-56. Later on, Dev1 received more abuse, first by
Easy--B’s sawn off and then
berries_odingle’s AK-47 and just like that, the Mp3 Killers were on the board. The rest of the match saw the Devs dominating and, finishing with MaxPayneDev9’s devastating kill of
SsWOODYsS, the Devs won the war.
In the second match against KILL, the two Crews got rolling in the São Paulo Bus Depot. With an assist from Dev1, MaxPayneDev13 started the festivities with an M10 attack on
Babba_Banshee. A little while later, after some back and forth between Dev1 and
bigwho1313, the former had the last word and then Devs were up two rounds to none. Continuing to respond to pressure, the MP3 Killers worked hard to protect the target,
Banshee_Babe. Despite some early aggression from MaxPayneDev11 on
SpBloodRed, strong efforts from
Chillwar82 with the AR and
OG_Murk, the Mp3 Killers Crew held on and won chapters three and four. However, the Devs picked up the pace in the final chapter and found themselves up 2 - 0. Over at the Tietê River Docks in the final match of the day,
Chillwar82 went on a rampage with two kills in a row on Dev1 and the Mp3 Killers found themselves in the lead.
Murda_N_tha_1st followed suit and with
bigwho1313 taking names with the AR, the Mp3 Killers rocked our Devs 125-75 in Chapter 1. Unfortunately, the Crew could not keep the magic going and the Devs wound up taking the afternoon with a 3-0 shutout.
