If you know, you do know, and you use it regularly, you are not welcome on our forums.

Good bye.

Piracy is not a laughing matter. This is a great game, and the people who made it deserve to be paid for it.

I agree, i'm glad I didn't get it. Stealing games is NOT cool.

Yeah 0roo0roo. Whoever developed the Havoc game engine (valve?), did one hell of a job programming it. It runs almost perfectly with no noticeable slow downs even on budget or bottom class hardware. Because of this game and how it performed on my PC, I'm now completely convinced to wait off on the A64/Nforce3 set up for at least another year.

Havok is just the physics engine...I believe the main game engine is max-fx. I agree that it runs very well despite incredible graphics and physics.

Owe, thanks john!

 

[bjc112]

Great Physics, great gameplay...

WAY WAY to short.

Replay value is decent however, i know i'll be playing this one twice..

Just a comment to all the people thinking the spin in bullet time is reloading. Actually, its not. You may have noticed that as you kill more people, your bullet time gets better (slower). The hourglass goes from white to yellow to orange. When it gets better, Max does that spin.

If you don't pay the people who make the games you love they will stop making them...or move to another platform where it is more difficult to pirate.

Your wrong man go into bullet time shoot one shell and reload now rinse and repeat. You spin everytime you hit reload.


Btw if this game was first person it would be one of the best muiltiplayer engines to date......Awesome Lighting, great models, great geometry and excellent shaders. Can you even Imagine a Game Like CS using this engine? ..........Crap I gotta change my underwear again!

There is probably a first person mode.
It's not like including would be that difficult, and if Remedy hopes to sell licenses to other companies, they'd be severely limiting their customer base by not providing 1'st person mode.

Hopefully some good mods will come out when people start playing with the SDK.

From GameFaqs:

Play as a naked woman
Right-click on the shortcut to Max Payne 2. In the Target: line, add this to the end: -developerkeys (remember to add this outside the double quotes, and remember to put a space before it or it will not work). Run the game, then press page up and page down to cycle through the game's character models. Eventually you'll end up as the model of a fully-rendered naked woman!

So far on this ol' Geforce 3 everything is enabled besides for aa/antialiasing, low shadows, flares, mirrors, and pixel shader skins. So far everything runs well!

But does anybody have pictures with EVERYTHING on, including pixel shader skins? I wonder what that looks like.

What you see will be different depending on what kind of card you have. Reflective mirrors, for example, supposedly only work on PS2.0 cards.

I saw reflections with my Radeon 7500 when I was playing ( Just bought my 9600pro yesterday) Having a dx 9/0 card though makes a difference, it's such a beautiful looking game. One of my all time favorite games

Indeed, I get pixel shader reflections on my 8500.

omg awesome

You already can. Add "-developerkeys" to your shortcut of Max Payne 2 and load the game with that shortcut. When you're entering the shower of mona, a cutscene will start, so don't go into the shower yet. Stay out of the shower and press F3. You can now move the camera free. Rest is easy; move the camera into the shower and enjoy...

eeps!
