I decided to play Max(imum) Payne. Aside from utilizing dual berrettas, spamming f5 and running/rolling/diving around like crazy, what kind of advice you can give?
The only good idea i thought of is not use bullettimedodge combo key and instead bind separate instances.
Maybe i should also try Max Payne 2, but i don't feel it. Especially with no Payne's smirk.
Max Payne 3 is only good in dramatic-sh ragdolls and physics-affected diving.

This was probably one of the worst parts of MP3, miss one shitty physics object and Max falls straight to the floor and the game cuts off the bullet time so the enemies you lined up are now lighting you up while you lay there like a tard.
Oddly, the last stand mechanic where Max takes a painkiller as he dives was where I was most useful in the game, if you don't press a movement key Max stays prone and you can stay in cover and slay left and right as enemies walk into your field of view.

I'd actually be ok with a Max Payne 1 remake in the Max Payne 3 engine obviously without the incessant cutscenes, though I suppose it'd be a bit easy if you could carry all the weapons at once like in the first game. It'd be hard but not impossible to fit the original style of faces up with the new engine, hell it already has a 'retro' Max skin in it from what I remember.

It… Does not compute for me. I would like to see MaxFX 3.0 though.
>add fluidity and the improvements from 2 and 3 to the gameplay f.e. shooting while prone and diving into a wall fumbles you
Shooting while prone is most required in 1st Max Payne, but not sure about wall fumble.
>add AK into the game as a special weapon with limited ammo, in multiplayer this would be the special weapon everyone would be gunning for like the BFG9000
I wonder where you can put AK into singleplayer, though. Perhaps in secret areas or by defeating some bosses.
>Deagle is replaced with M1911 or revolver, just not that kike piece of shit
I kinda want both M1911 and revolver. Revolver would be slower to reload.
>add in kung fu mode no stick
Kung Fu activates in 3rd chapter of Max Payne, right after 2nd Valkyr Nightmare. I don't understood "no stick" though.
>make a multiplayer with modding tools and letting you play in every level in the game with sections cut-out for obvious size reasons
I want modding tools to the max (no pun intended). To the point you can make game into action survival against demon hordes of enemies, both melee and shooting ones.
I kinda want to see what kind of gamemodes could be in multiplayer. Maybe some kind of "Deal Breaker" gamemode, where one team acquires documents and another have cash to buy out said documents. It's depends on players, whenever they want go peaceful way to exchange shit or go gun blazing. Oh wait, there is already game based on that.
>let's you play as every character in the game
Everybody will go as Max Payne and ask each other rhetorical questions.
But least let's not forget most important thing:

Sadly, even if Remedy want to make remake, all right are acquired by Rockshit. They even not allowed to make patches for first 2 Max Payne-s! Save for MaxFX becoming open source. But i don't want another The Graf Community (5fps edition) bullshit.

I forgot all about that. I never used it.
My only gripe with the Kung Fu mod is you have to "level up" to use all the kicks and punches, and then it resets when you lose all your weapons. Is there a way to skip that and just have the whole thing at once, forever?
