This blockout shows something akin to a luxurious garden with a yacht that would lead up to a big mansion. However, also featured on the portfolio is a blockout for a so-called “Drug Lord Level”. This level is in the final game and esthetically looks very similar to its blockout.

The Bus Station level blockout is instantly recognizable. Andres Rovin, the Senior Environment Artist on Max Payne 3, shared some of these blockouts on his portfolio page. These ”blockouts” as they are called, are meant to make an idea or concept visible. As is common in game development, before a level is fully developed, the artist first creates a rough layout. But in contrast to the train terminal, the following didn’t even make the production stages. The Hoboken train terminal wasn’t the only level that didn’t make the cut. Why these levels were either cut or changed remains unknown. It’s here we see screenshots of a Hoboken train terminal (this level probably was cut), a different version of the Morgue, the Extremist’s apartment and the club found deep in the Nova Esperança favela. Ben Steven’s his ArtStation page shows some of the work he has done for Max Payne 3. However, some members of the community have once again stumbled upon portfolio pages that seem to reveal just a wee bit more. There’s not much known about these changes and much of the concept art made available to the public seems to reflect the final levels in the game. As the game evolved, surely the levels must have as well. Some levels changed drastically over time In the renders, we can see various renditions of the concept art come to life. In addition, character renders by Jason Fry (who was the Art Director on Max Payne 3) reveal Max’s look before James McCaffrey was cast. In Max Payne 3: The Complete Series, a hard-cover bundle, containing all the prequel comics, concept art is shown in which various iterations of the character are shown. However, before Rockstar Games settled on Max’s bearded and bald look, the studio experimented with various other designs. Whether you think it does the story and character justice will surely remain to be discussed until the end of time. Max going bald in Max Payne 3 has been a hot topic of debate among fans. Next to Max, the concept art also displays three other characters that could very well have been the mob bosses Max would’ve been pit against. When asked about the art Mucke commented this was one of the first pieces they created to pitch Max Payne 3 and that it would take place in Russia. Lead concept artist Johannes Mucke included concept art in his portfolio that was created in 2006. Allegedly, one of the earliest pitches for Max Payne 3 originated from the now-defunct Rockstar Games Vienna. Although primarily developed by Rockstar Games Vancouver, the project would later be co-developed by various Rockstar Studios around the globe. It’s no secret that Max Payne 3 went through several redesigns during its lengthy development. Max Payne 3 could’ve taken place in Russia So without further ado, here are ten things you probably didn’t know about Max Payne 3! 01. This list was also posted on Twitter yesterday, but I figured listing them here would allow me to go into more detail as I’m not limited by 140 characters. Some of those have only come to light in the last recent years! So there’s a fat chance (hopefully) you’ve never even heard of some of these. To celebrate the ninth anniversary, I thought it would be cool to share some of the lesser-known facts about the game with the community. Either way, there’s no denying with Max Payne 3 Rockstar Games attempted to evolve the modern shooter through innovations in animation, AI, gameplay, and through enhancements in Max’s signature Bullet-time. That means the game has been with us for almost a decade now! Many fans around the world cherish fond memories of playing it or loathe the massive changes Rockstar games applied to their beloved character. Max Payne 3 turned nine years old yesterday.
