How to unlock the Ouch My Head achievement in Max Payne 3 - Definitive Guide

So for an actual solution here it goes :)

if you plan on getting this legit this is completely luck based. If you do not understand the achievement description this is how I'll sum it down. Someone in your game has to activate the "Hangover" Burst and while that burst is active anyone that dies within that given amount of time will respawn "Hungover" and your job is to get a headshot on them. Yes, you must basically spawn kill your enemy. When it comes to obtaining this achievement I would suggest boosting it because it obviously makes it a lot easier. So when boosting this choose any small Deathmatch map and try to get between 6-8 people in a lobby together. Everyone should have this burst equipped and 1-2 people should go for the at a time. 1 player not going for the achievement needs to get their burst up to level 3 and when he reaches it everyone NOT going for the achievement should huddle up, and the person who has the full burst should throw the grenade and the IMMEDIATELY activate the burst. Upon respawning all players that died will be hungover leaving the 1-2 people going for the achievement plenty of targets to choose from, just call out names and tell them to stand still. A sniper works best for this occasion, and then just rinse and repeat until everyone has the achievement.

If you are going to try and get this legit, equip the hangover burst and get it to level 3 and when you are about to kill someone activate the burst and pray that they spawn near you again.

Seriously this achievement sucks balls. You do it right and it still doesn't unlock.

Did it double boxing. Do the nightclub roof level. Find a place near the big sign as high as you can in the level and you can see several spawn points. Killed my dummy when he spawned on the helipad. Nice.

This achievement is focked. I have tried to unlock it many times over the years and it has never worked, no matter what workaround I tried. Very frustrating.

A 2rue Boofer's solution is spot on. As much as I enjoyed the multiplayer for this game, nailing this specific achievement and even some of the others in this DLC pack, all come down to luck and being in the right place at the right time, with the right burst and very quick aiming!

Save yourself the pain and time and set up or join a boosting session to unlock this achievement with seven other people. Going for this achievement along wouldn't take you longer than an hour. Once set with your boosters, a good map to try this on would be 'Visitor Docking' thanks to the map pretty much just being one thin stretch which is about a third of the full version of the 'Panama Canal' map.

With all players equipped with the right gear, commence the shooting and the drunkness and the achievement should be popping for everyone slowly but surely. I recorded the boosting session I had recently for this in which I've made a video which showcases how to do it and I also give a few other pointers to help others along the way.

This achievement is highly based on luck and good timing. Also you have to kill someone with the effects of your own burst and not somebody else's. With this in mind i've tough of an easier way to help your chances.

Players Needed: 8

Equipment Required:
- Grenade
- Hangover Burst

Method:
1- Kill as many as you can to fill the burst to level 3
2- Have all players meet in one spot of the map
3- Throw a grenade to kill all players at the same time
4- Immediately activate the level 3 burst
5- Kill someone with a headshot

Since all players spawn with a hangover from your burst you have 7 targets to choose from.

Note: The reason why i don't have this achievement is because it's glitched for me.

Doesn't have to be your own burst. Popped this last night and I had the Explosives burst equipped at the time. So basically anyone on your team can trigger the Hangover burst. You just have to be lucky enough to get the headshot kill at the right time.

Damn, that sucks. Glad I didn't have that issue. The rest of these achievements are going to be hell to unlock. Trying to do it legit and people just don't play the gametype or map needed to get some of them. That's what I get for not playing it more when it was first released I guess.

This achievement's description is quite confusing, as one would think you would have to be the one who is hungover while getting a kill.

That's not the case. All you must do is kill an enemy player who is effected by your Hangover Burst. Be sure to get your Burst meter to Level 3. A Level 3 Hangover will cause enemies to spawn with little stamina and low health for about 10-15 seconds.

It is suggested that this achievement be boosted with a full 8-player lobby, because it is likely that an enemy will hold back until their Hangover wears off in a legitimate match. A great map for this achievement would be "Branco HQ." Activate your Level 3 Hangover burst and kill your partner. When they spawn, communicate quickly in order to locate and kill them while the Hangover is still in effect on them.

We set the “Hangover” impulse, saving it to the third level. We activate, the one who was dead at the time of activation will respawn with a hangover, “a cloudy screen and 40% health.” You need to kill such a player with a headshot. It is better to forget this trophy, since the hangover goes away very quickly, literally 3-5 seconds, to kill such a player you have to be lucky.

Attention! If the enemy has a “Flag” in his arsenal, the hangover is blocked and no matter how much you activate the impulse, the enemies will always be sober.

Attention! During the boost, it was noticed that the trophy was given only on new maps from this expansion. So keep that in mind.

The easiest way is to gather 8 people and go into a shootout using the "Metro" or "Marty's Bar" map. Open game only.

I received a trophy in the Bus Park with randoms, turning out to be the lucky one. So the cards (original or DLS) do not play a role. For those who are against boosting, grab a .30 LMG (an excellent combination of accuracy, lethality and rate of fire) and hope for good luck.
