Imagine DNF comes out with a different Face !

What will you do !?

Akari · 06-23-2003, 03:42 AM

Stop buying games. [img]images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]

Froz · 06-23-2003, 03:58 AM

Wow, that new model really gives a fresh touch to the whole game, looks very good! Now we need some ingame shots with new levels [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Bludd · 06-23-2003, 06:30 AM

I wonder if MP2 will show bullet wounds and stuff on models in-game, or if it will be like in MP1 where they only change expressions when they die.

Also, will there be moving mouths/lips this time? [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

mysteryperfecta · 06-23-2003, 07:34 AM

Instead of just complaining about Max looking different, has anyone tried to figure out why? I'm sure there's a reason.

This is pure speculation, but we know that the movie rights for Max Payne were aquired some time ago. If they had cast the part of Max, it would be foolish to model the game character after Sam Lake again.

It's probably not the right reason, but it's certainly reasonable. I doubt they'd arbitrarily change Max's distinctive face without a motive.

Are you saying that the new actor for Max could be the same as the "announced" movie?
Interesting...I remember Remedy said they were going to cast professionist actors... [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Bludd · 06-23-2003, 08:12 AM

There's a difference between universally recognized professional actors and professional actors, Jade. There are actors around the world that people in other countries do not know much of.

And even if you aren't a internationally recognized actor, you can still be a damn good one.

Jade · 06-23-2003, 09:51 AM

Mmm...you're right...

First - you're assuming that DNF will come out, and nobody has proof of that.
Second - Duke has a distinctive LOOK, but not a distinctive FACE, so your comparison is not valid.

M · 06-23-2003, 10:53 AM

doesn't it bother anyone that max's hand STILL looks like it's holding an invisible gun.

SirSushi · 06-23-2003, 12:33 PM

i don't mind the new face but the hairdo makes him look kinda old

aavenr · 06-23-2003, 01:30 PM

Somehow i feel this is a smart move, definitively against industry conventions but that's what makes it interesting. I get the feeling the plot is gonna be even better this time around (and that's saying a lot), more 'mature' perhaps. Mature, I don't know i see that old lad and that's the only word that comes to my mind [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Can't wait to hear more on this game after seeing this!

MikaRMD · 06-23-2003, 01:42 PM

I was wondering, do our Italian friends know when the magazine is coming out? Or the French about the other magazine? How about the German PC Games? PCZone UK?

I really don't know myself, and I am kind of itching to see those [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Wiseblitz · 06-23-2003, 02:37 PM

Haven't you seen the game yourself?

Bludd · 06-23-2003, 02:40 PM

I think he want to see what they are saying.

Crashnet · 06-23-2003, 05:42 PM

All I know is I don't care what he looks like since the model looks so good in the picture. I just want to see some in game screens and find out whether or not he still has the same voice. Provided he has the same voice, I'm all smiles. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

dark_angel · 06-23-2003, 11:27 PM

Devil Master,

>>First - you're assuming that DNF will come out, and nobody has proof of that.

This is my Proof : The engine is done !

Mongorian · 06-24-2003, 12:40 AM

I agree that i'll miss sam's face, but come on guys...we have to trust the developers. AND sam. I'm sure that since he's the writer he probably had a say in it. And if it was his decision or if he could agree with the rest of the team to change the look of max payne, then I'm just going to assume that they know what they're doing. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Besides, he looks a LOT more like a detective/cop, whereas in the first one he looked more like a bent rebel lashing out at whoever he could get his hands on.
And its not like you're looking at his face when you're playing the game [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Exactly. Plus, it's always nice to see what kind of arrangements they have done with the screenshots.

Did you guys give preview versions of MP2 for them to play with or did they all come one day and play a session of MP2 at your offices or 3d Realms' ?

neither, i'd say. it might be a little too expensive to fly them in, plus: the remedy offices seem to be a little too small [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

anyway, that's what some of the users of pc games online had to say about the recently published pictures:

"max doesn’t look like max anymore. his cool hawaiian shirt vanished, too. this way he looks like some bedraggled investigator."

"i don’t believe this guy is actually meant to be max payne. he looks much older whereas mona sax still has the same young features as in part one. well, we’ll see if max is going to look that old and past it in the final game."

"didn’t he spent a relatively long time in prison after part one? it would have left its marks on him, of course."

"i don’t find his new looks that awful. he aged a bit and has a slight 'dirty harry-touch' now. i’m waiting for the outcome."

"the new max doesn’t look like the old one at all. even if he aged he wouldn’t look the way he looks now."

"this is definitely not max payne! and if he is, i’d be extremely disappointed. as if 'dirty harry 2' wasn’t done with clint eastwood but gene hackman instead. that simply doesn’t fit. give me back the cool, hawaiian shirts and necklace-wearing max payne!"

"the bullettime action looked cool and dynamic when old max did it but when i take a look at the new model now, i have to smile.... on the other hand it might be interesting to see how max changed in the course of time, not only externally but also regarding his feelings and actions."

"compare this guy to the artwork!!! it’s definitely not max. most striking are his features and the missing sideburns. maybe it’s his superior, a baddie, or his father?"

pc games magazine will be published in early july. i'm quite excited about their comment on the subject.
