MAX PAYNE 3 GAMEPLAY | HARD DIFFICULTY | CHAPTER 6 | A DAME, A DORK, AND A DRUNK
0Rodrigo dismisses Becker, who responds by shaking his hand and leaving, and Rodrigo moves over to where Max is still standing, walks past him, and the two talk about how they had "so many plans", and Max responding to Rodrigo, "didn't we all". Da Silva interrupts by making an attempt (via Rodrigo's secretary) to meet with Rodrigo privately, possibly to warn him that the UFE might be involved in the conspiracy regarding Fabiana's kidnapping, only to then be impatiently disregarded by Rodrigo as just "another bent cop". Shortly proceeding this, a distant sounding alarm triggers and Rodrigo announces that a group, of which are later determined to be the Cracha Preto, are entering the building through the reception doors (of which is visibly confirmed via the CCTV monitors active in Rodrigo's office). Max has no choice but to face the heavily equipped militia head-on, leaving Rodrigo in his office so he can be ready to activate it's lockdown sequence. Max is assisted by the IT Guy to get the systems back online in the headquarters, which the inactivation of has prevented Rodrigo securing his position.
