Max Payne 2: Whats with the new bullet time?

[BoomAM]

How come with the new bullet time i cant do all the fancy dives to the front, back, left and right like i could in Max Payne 1?
I used to be able to press bullet time, then left and jump, and he`d do a acrobatic jump to the left whilst firing his weapons. But now i cant in Max Payne 2.

I just finished MP1 for the first time last week. Great game and I look forward to DL'ing and playing some of the mods.

Bump for ya...

Try shoot dodge or whatever and you can dive and fire.

right mouse only slows down time. shift is shoot dodge which is the jump and everything. you can do right mouse and then shift also.

Remap whatever key you're using for bullet time to 'bullet time combo' in options, and it works more like it did in the first game.

The game will be alot harder to beat doing shoot dodge only IMO. Because when you shoot dodge the bullet time only lasts untill you hit the ground. Best way to get through a hard part is if you know there are guys around the corner or in the next room is to hit bullet time and then move in blasting away.

So i just swap the shift key with the right mouse button to use it like the bullet time of old?

That´s what I did.
I only used the new bullet time a few times when I played it through.

sounds like that should do it
ill get mp2 eventually, but in #1 i almost only used shoot dodging.

especially cool looking with the kung fu mod moves

Bullet time is cool but I didn't use it to beat the game. I had to rely on my AWESOME QuakeIII, fast twitch skills. Bullet time is cool, but not necessary.
