Max Payne Mobile:Weapon Tips & Guide

A slow motion gunplay game, Max Payne Mobile [Free] ,is now available on android. Here's a blog about weapon tips for the game, check it ! 

There're 15 different weapons which are divided into 6 categories. Press 1-6 to select the weapon of your own, using [  ] is just way too slow. 

The numbers in brackets after the weapon's name indicate the amount of ammo it can hold. E.g. Beretta (18-162) means the Beretta holds 18 bullets in one clip and you can carry at most 162 Beretta bullets (including the clip inside the gun) in your arsenal. 

 2.1 Melee weapons: 

- Lead pipe (unlimited) 

- Baseball bat (unlimited) 

You will not use them too often, because you'll have plenty of ammo for your firearms most of the time in the game. Anyway, they are powerful weapons, both can kill a guy in 1-2 hits.

 2.2 Handguns: 

- Beretta (18-162) 

It is the gun you start with, and it is satisfactorily efficient. You will very likely never use it again after you've got the Desert Eagle or Dual Berettas. 

 - Dual Berettas (36-162) 

Once you get a second Beretta, you can use Dual Berettas. With two guns firing at the same time, you are doing double damage, but more importantly, they provide some suppression fire.

 - Desert Eagle (12-48) 

The Desert Eagle fires a bit slower than the Beretta but with much more power. A drawback of the Desert Eagle is the small amount of Desert Eagle ammo you can carry. You will always need to find replenishment for it if you use it a lot. 

2.3 Shotguns:

- Pump-Action Shotgun (7-80) 

With the Pump-Action Shotgun, you can kill a guy in close range in one shot. It is useful in almost every situation, especially in close quarter combat, but it needs quite some time to load between every shot. It shares ammo with the Sawed-Off Shotgun. 

 - Sawed-Off Shotgun (2-80) 

It can fire 2 shots successively, but after that, you need to reload, which can be quite a trouble when you are facing a group of bad guys. The good thing is, you can quickly send a guy a second shot in "bullet time" if the first one fails to kill. It shares ammo with the Pump-Action Shotgun. 

 - Jackhammer (12-110)

 The Jackhammer is the combination of the good things the other two shotguns have, large ammo limit with auto reloading, meaning that you can fire 12 successive shots. Too bad you only get it fairly late in the game. 

2.4 Automatic weapons:

- Ingram (50-300)

 The Ingram fires so quickly that you will empty the 50 shots in seconds. The ammo is not deadly, but the speed is. When the enemy is getting hit, he can't fire back, it is like having suppression fire covering in combat. Tends to be a bit inaccurate in long range, but well, that's not the way to use an Ingram anyway. 

 - Dual Ingrams (100-300)

 Just like the relation between the Beretta and Dual Berettas, Dual Ingrams doubles the damage of the Ingram and it is the best weapon for suppression fire in the game. Just point the guns at the unlucky target and watch taking dozens of bullets before he dies... 

 - Colt Commando (30-150) Another good-for-everything weapon in the game, it has both the firing speed and firepower you need to take on the toughest guy. It is accurate even in long range. Use it any way you like, just keep in mind that the 150 bullets is not that many, always look for replenishment. 

2.5 Throwable weapons:

- Grenade (1-10)

 It is best used when you are facing enemies who are taking cover behind boxes, tables or the bar, or firing at you from inside a room. Just remember to aim above the guy and remember that the grenade will bounce a bit after hitting things. You cannot use it with "shoot dodge".

 - Molotov Cocktail (1-10 <-- Thanks Augustine for telling!) 

A petrol bomb that spreads into flame upon hitting anything. You can't kill a group of people, which you can with a grenade, with it, but it is also unlikely you'll burn yourself with it. You cannot use it with "shoot dodge". 

 - M79 (1-10)

 It is not really "throwable", but the M79 grenade launcher is extremely useful when you need to handle a group of bad guys who are positioned close to each others. The grenade fired will explode upon contact and blow things up like a hand grenade. You can shoot dodge using the M79, making it easier for you to aim, and less likely to get hit compared with using the hand grenade, it also has a longer range. The only drawback is that the grenade doesn't travel in a parabola like the hand grenade, so you can't kill people behind a wall with it. 

2.6 Sniper rifle: 

 - Sniper Rifle (5-20) 

Press "E" when equipped with the Sniper Rifle to active "Sniper Zoom". Hold the key to zoom in even further (Thanks to Bahamut, Chris and Jonel.) Needless to say, the Sniper Rifle is best used to take care of enemies in long range. Aim for any part of the target's body and you can kill him with one shot most of the time, not including bosses. You cannot "shoot dodge" using this weapon.

COMBAT TIPS: 

Gun fighting is almost the only thing you'll do in the game, but that doesn't mean it would be boring, because of the bullet time function, you can enjoy performing cinematic shoot dodge and watch bullets flying around in Matrix style. I'm now going to share some of my experience about combating in the game with you, hope that helps you playing and enjoying the game.
