Max Payne Speedrun - DoA difficulty - [

[@GamerPro132]

There was something disturbingly familiar about the letter before me. The handwriting was all pretty curves. "You're in a speedrun, Max" The truth was a blazing green chasm in my head. Running past my enemies, rolling to my destinations, using glitches to reach impossible speeds and heights. I was in a speedrun. Funny as hell, It was the most horrible thing I could think of.

[@tracktamer]

[@kevinrichardson14]

[@cybernaab]

If you shoot the securityguard yourself just in time, the crooks cant do it

[@Dominik40301]

You cant save him, even if you kill the guy who usually kills him, security guy just dies no matter nobody shots him, even blood falls on floor i think. This happens because it is a scripted death, he doesn't actually die from shotgun, i remember there were situations where guy with shotgun missed him, bullet hit the wall on right side, and he still died

[@EvilStreaks]

31:38 I love that scene where the two blonde spooks kill that technician and go "I think he's dead already". They shoot forward for about fifteen seconds and never change their aim to account for the victim being dead and not standing up anymore. They're even aiming above their eye level. They've got these angry looks on their faces while they unload full mags in to thin air. Looks ridiculous.

Of all the speedruns I have seen, I feel like this is the one that requires the most knowledge of the game to be accomplished. Awesome run dude, it's unfortunate you didn't do one for Max Payne 2, that would have been awesome to see.

[@kubanitos]

Oh God, this video brought back great memories. Hearing the voice of Max Payne and the whole audio of the game brought tears in my eyes. Such a great, great game.

[@JudgeBane]

There was something disturbingly familiar about the letter in front of me. The handwriting was all pretty curves. "You're in a KZbin video Max." The truth was an icy green chill in my brain. Constant inane babble, screams of rage when I die and return that aren't from me, constant freezes in time while the video buffers. I was in a KZbin video. Funny as hell, it was the most horrible thing I could think of.

[@Jay-zk7uw]

There was something disturbingly familiar about the comment in front of me. The text was all pretty arial font. "You're in a KZbin comments section, Max." The truth was an icy green chill in my brain. Arguments spawning from a single word, unprovoked outbursts of profanity laced with childlike spelling of racist and homophobic slurs. I was in a KZbin comments section. Funny as hell, it was the most horrible thing I could think of.

[@3nduranc3]

Hey, I wanted to tell you that I truly thank you for everything you've done for Max Payne speedrunning. You certainly inspired me to push boundaries while speedrunning it. I'd love to talk with you if you're active on here!

[@Squilliam-Fancyson]

25:35 "It didn't take me long to run into the trio" Very true statement

[@user-we1fk4ul5o]

cut ridd3r some slack. people griping about bugs and glitches should really look up summoningsalt’s videos...he documents the history of certain games’ speedruns and the subsequent speedrunners who defined the history of those games online. people don’t understand I think how difficult it is to perfect glitches and bugs within a game to perform them as perfectly as ridd3r or many other speedrunners do. glitches and warps are accepted for most games and given their own category in speedruns, so it’s not cheating by any speedrunning standard either. what ridd3r did is pretty fucking cool and I’m sure took hours of gameplay...Thanks for sharing this with us. I couldn’t sleep and wanted to rewatch gameplay of one of my favorite childhood games and I got to see this amazing spectacle because of it. Kudos to you and all the work you put into it

[@ricoosauce]

Lol why do the enemies just watch him run past them

[@llVIU]

he's cheating. He's using an invincibility bug and calling this a ''legit run''. Just like every single speedrunner ever. I would respect his cheating if at least he put it in the title.

[@llVIU]

@RICO 22:45 and I suppose this was programmed into the game as well? I'm not gonna spend an hour trying to pick every single thing that I can identify to prove to a random internet person that he's cheating. When the truth is that you're not here to be convinced, you're just here to narrow mindledly say that ANY bug abuse in a speedrun is not cheating. ''it's not a bug, it's a trick'' k buddy.

in train cutscene he fell - because tre train pushed him, smth like that. So, that was enough damage for max to die. But you can't die in a cutscene, so we have the walking dead, and enemies think that you are already dead

[@Gazzoosethe1]

Arttu N he shot the guard on the other elevator with the grenade launcher

[@Dalek22comments]

Because of the skip at 39:18 the guards are still alive. Normally you would kill them but for whatever reason they somehow end up walking into the laser area which kills them. Fun fact: I actually discovered this trick by accident around 12 years ago after holding W down after closing the comic strip. I eventually stumbled upon a speedrun of this game and noticed Ridd3r didn't use it in his previous run so I told him about it to save him time! :)

@1Ridd3r Wonderful. I admire your runs, it's amazing what you squeezed out of this game. i thought this game was done with your last run, but you couldn't let it go ;) I will enjoy the commentary ones it has been posted. cheers and keep being that awesome!

[@1Ridd3r]

Because I skipped their trigger zones, usually by super jumping.

[@TheEquinox12s]

16:28 wtf? he's flying man!!

[@_LinhTinhCacThu_]

Full Focus That's the jumping bug. When you on a 2-Hand Weapon, Switch to 1-Hand Weapon and press jump. If you on 1-Hand Weapon, just switch to 2-Hand Weapon and jump.

[@Vampyreq]

Sorry I'm not a speedrunner, so I'm not sure about terms like "pro2" and "pro3" but anyway I was referring to the cutscene that appears at 18:13. A jump into the living room will let you skip the trigger for that cutscene, so it doesn't even appear. But it'll be slower than your roll + save glitch. Just thought you might want to know...

[@1Ridd3r]

@HuskyTdC I was skipping a cutscene. It occurs there because I skip the killer suits at the mona cutscene. The killersuits end up running into the laser fields for some reason.

[@xRedx0]

lol the ai thinks max is a ghost.....

[@Terrorforming]

Why did the enemies feel so stupid? I feel like you would be right in front of them and they wouldn't fight or shoot.

[@juanfedericocriado8229]

how do you do to not get attacked by them?

[@CookedOnions]

When you spam bullet time, the bullets that are already currently in the air won't hit you if I recall correctly.

[@1Ridd3r]

Don't think that's true. If I don't get attacked it's because I skipped their trigger zones. It's all explained in tlinks in the description.

[@CookedOnions]

Ah I think it was probably max payne 2, I heard the speedrunner Saintmillion talk about it during SGDQ earlier. I guess maybe the same mechanic doesn't apply in the first game.

[@yofacts7252]

Max Payne 1 is the best. None of the sequels compare to the original.

[@nikitageraskin5160]

Everything is great. I really love the whole story. Surely, the first is the best, but the third turned out to be very very close. Genious storylines.

[@fleksyy]

Max Payne 1 = Better Story and Atmosphere > Max Payne 2 = More satisfying Gameplay

[@cornerstone_]

Fucking God Gamer. Massive Respect from India with ❤️

[@FranciscoGarcia-bo7wv]

Highlight either the desert eagle or the commando and keep the panel up, when you need to jump, start bullet time and select that weapon and jump at the same time, it's be something like weapon# - - - leftclick+rightclick+space in that order.

[@divine3728]

How to skip cutscenes?

[@jigsaucemusic]

this might be a little late, but first off cutscene skips can only be done on pc. it takes advantage of the game’s instant save/load buttons (f5 and f9). if you mash the save button (f5) right as the cutscene starts and then mash the load button (f9), it allows you to control max during the cutscene. this works because you are basically loading yourself into the cutscene
