@ShalashaskaUK666 I faced similar issues with this game, Unfortunately this game doesnt even feel like max payne. I hate the controls and the cover mechanic in this game, the previous installations made you feel like a hardcore killing machine but this game I died in the first chapter heck the only way I can survive in hard mode is by running from cover to cover which means NO MORE BULLET TIME! Since then my aim has improved but even so the only time I use bullet time is when I know only 1 or max 2 enemies are left or if someone is rushing towards me otherwise the fragile Max will die, and yes even the cover mechanic is flawed.
Speaking of taking your time, during the club scene I was doing a quick lap around the area to get ammo, and some cutscene kicked in where Max was on the phone going 'sorry, I let them get away, its my fault' and I get a fail screen!! Where's my timer? How the hell was I meant to know they were imposing a literal time limit to that part of the story? Therefore now I'm rushing through areas because of whats happening, not salvaging ammo or knowing if I'm playing properly.
This was so absurd the same thing happened to me, its so insanely stupid that they have these clues, golden items and painkillers which we need to find yet this shit happens...... I just dont get it. To tell you the truth I wasnt looking for any items I was just shooting the clubbers in the head haha. (the only time I felt powerful in the game :P)
Do you guys have any control tips for sensitivity or layout that would make it feel more like the previous games? Or gameplay tips in general? How have you been playing, more like the older games, or have you adapted a new approach?
After a lot of experimentation I found myself cofortable at 4 sensitivity for all three options ,and if you are using the the auto-lock the I suggest that while using cover keep popping in and out along with shots as this puts your aim at your targets everytime, you can even mix in bullet time during this if its too hectic, but remember that when your in bullet time to keep popping in and out coz the enemies will still be shooting at you.
I am surprised you did not have anything to say about the rolling mechanic, its so slow and lethargic. For someone who can jump off terraces and helicopters like spiderman, he rolls like a square barrel.
Lastly I will say that I found the dialouges and cutscenes very entertaining & impressive to say the least, and till now the story has been quite intruging. cheers.
