Max Payne 3 New York Minute - Chapter 2 (Walkthrough / Guide)
Chapter 2 - Nothing but the second best

Before the patch come out before Deathmatch made in heaven DLC Pack available, the platinum time of this chapter is 3:00, but many player who have platinum before the patch find out their medal have change from Platinum to gold after the patch, so here is the latest information of Platinum time of this chapter.
Medal | Target Time | XP Reward |
4:00.00 | 1,000 |
Many player then confused and try to find out how to reach 4:00 or more to get the Fabiana avatar for Deathmatch. If you find it very difficult, try your best to melee some enemies since you can get 10 secs for every melee. You also can look at my run to get more tips on how to get more than 4 mins of this chapter.

Chapter Breakdown:
What you have at the beginning of this Chapter:
PT92 (Pistol), 3 Painkillers & Full Bullet Time bar
You will begin this chapter by breaking out the window with a enemy and enter Bullet time, the clock will start count down too.
Checkpoint 1

If you want to gain extra time, left one or two in the dance floor and melee them, you will gain 10 secs for melee kill.(4 more seconds/each kill).

Checkpoint 2

1.Kill all 4 enemies in the dance floor
If you kill all 4 enemies(3 in the upper level) in dance floor, after you go up, 1 more enemy will appear.
2.Go up before kill all the enemies in the dance floor
The 5th enemy will not appear, you need to melee 1 or 2 enemy to get more time. Careful about those who are carry Micro 9mm, If you keep get hit, you will get in last stand very quick, deal with them first if you plan for melee any one of them.
Keep going and you will find 2 more enemies outside.

The left one using Micro 9mm, the right one using .38 revolver.
You have another choice here after you kill this two enemies, either get to the door as quick as you can or wait for more enemy come out. If you choose the second one, then two more enemies will come out from the door within very short time, both carry Micro 9mm(SMG).

Checkpoint 3
After the cut-scene and show enemy kill a people, quickly headshot or melee the guy in front of you( I usually melee him for 10 seconds). After that you will move to open area.


Checkpoint 4

When you approach to the kitchen, get close to the locker, you will find 2 Pain killers here.

After you get in the kitchen, use bullet time to kill one of the enemy, two more enemies will come in after that. You can left 1 or more enemy at last to perform melee action to get more time. (If you are too close before you shoot there are no extra enemy come in)
Checkpoint 5
A fight inside a Japanese Restaurant. There are total of 6 enemies, 2 of them carry Micro 9mm SMG.

Use anyway you like to deal with them, shootdodge, bullet time or melee... If you have 3 mins or more remain before the Helicopter chasing part, you are doing well. Don't forget there have a pain killer too if you want extra one.
After that, a long cut-scene begin...(Skipped)

Helicopter part is quite difficult if you use free-aim, bullet time is your best friend in this part. And in helicopter chasing, enemy will die in one shot. If you hate laser, turn it off. (Note you will earn less time in the whole Helicopter chasing, see my tips of New York Minute about it.)
Checkpoint 6

After you get control of Max, there are 5 enemies in front of you, use bullet time to kill them as quick as you can, otherwise Giovanna will be killed. (You don't have much time if you don't use bullet time, and try not to shoot Giovanna too!)
Checkpoint 7

Headshot the enemy in bullet time as quick as you can and go to next section.

8 more enemy will try to get close to Giovanna, but they won't appear at the same time, kill them as quick as you can so you won't lost much time here.
Kill one more enemy who come out from the door.
Checkpoint 8

4 enemies in this part(2-1-1), kill them. If you miss, use bullet time to help you kill them.
Checkpoint 9

7 enemies in this part(3-4 / 3-3-1). Kill them before any one of them get close to Giovanna, and one more enemy with shotgun will break the door and try to kill Giovanna, headshot that enemy!
Checkpoint 10

After shoot the rocket and get 1 second, 4 enemies will come and shoot you, since the helicopter is moving too, try to use bullet time to help you kill all of them.
When you finish the job, the last guy will carry the rocket launcher and try to shoot the helicopter, you will enter bullet time automatically, you can shoot the guy first to get 2 more secs and then shoot the rocket for 1 more sec, then the helicopter chasing part is end.
Checkpoint 11 Part 1

After you can move again, get down and get 2 Pain killer in front of you, don't miss it! This is the final 2 Pain killer you can get in this chapter and you only start with 1 or none Pain killer since you lost all of them...

Keep going down, there will be 8 enemies waiting to shoot you. At least 3 of them carry Micro 9mm SMG, be careful about that. Also, try to avoid getting close to shotgun enemy, if you direct hit, you will put in last stand immediacy! Also try to look for get some melee kill if you lost time during the helicopter scene.
Checkpoint 11 Part 2

5 enemies at this part. Try to melee the first one that coming to you. If others are too far, headshot to finish them off, careful the shotgun enemy.
Checkpoint 11 Part 3


6 enemies in this part, 2 of them using Micro 9mm, 2 of them using .38 Revolver and 2 of them using Shotgun (in cover).
Make sure you have at least 4:20 on your clock after kill the last enemy since you need at least 15 secs to run down to Giovanna hiding place... If you have bullet time left after kill the last enemy, use it and keep rolling until you don't have any bullet time and keep running.
