How to unlock the The One Eyed Man Is King achievement in Max Payne 3 - Definitive Guide

Chapter 3, Checkpoint 12

I can confirm that you do have a checkpoint and you can 'let' it reload after the first 7.

If you miss, stop shooting, Passo will get shot up, hit A to retry. Per some comments you yourself can shoot Passo to speed up the process. If this happens after the first 7, it will put you back to the cutscene after #7.

The first 7 are pretty straight forward, aim center mass; 8-10 come fairly quickly from the left and you only have the side body to hit. Being smooth is key, nothing too difficult. The remaining four shouldnt be a problem once you get to them.

Yep, definitely works. Missed the 4th to last guy, did what you said with letting Passos die, then reload, and it unlocked as normal.

I agree completely, this definitely works. You can in fact just shoot Passo yourself to speed up proceedings, and even take advantage of the slow mo bullet opportunities to go towards the grinds. It's a win win situation, well, maybe not for Passo..

I'm confirming this as well. I actually failed a couple of times during the second part and it still worked.

There's one thing all these guides have in common. The number of enemies is wrong. There are 14. The checkpoint you refer to is after you kill 7.

Other than that, you should mention using bullet time from the 8th guy since it will be full by then.

Then there is more to it than has been presented. I'm positive that I did not get the achievement after killing every one of them in one shot up until the checkpoint, and then restarting that checkpoint. Does not work.

Are you referring to the checkpoint after the first 6 guys? Bc 15:1 say it works. I didnt miss the first 6, so restarting the initial checkpoint might not work, not sure.

For some reason the aiming feels very off on this scene. I usually play with inverted vertical look, but uninverted actually felt more natural. Not sure if anyone felt the same way but it helped me to switch. Great guide +1!

I can confirm that restarting the checkpoint manually doesn't work. Let Passoss die and retry - then it will work!

I can also confirm that you can just let Passos die or shoot him yourself. You can also do the first part perfectly, mess up and still shoot Passos/let him die and get the achievement. In other words, there NO reason to ever have to exit the level and reload. Just don't don't restart the checkpoint using the menu, and you'll be fine. Easy!

Make sure you do it on easy, you get so much more bullet time. I killed the first three without using bullet time and after that, i had enough to use bullet time on all remaining enemies.

Thanks a lot! Finally got the achievement following your tip about letting him die. Upvoted and I'd put something like this in Bold. "Do NOT restart checkpoint as it will not count the previous guys shot in the first part. Let Passos die and hit retry instead."
Thanks again was getting frustrated doing it by restarting the checkpoint. Guess that'll teach me to read these guides first.

The key of this achievement is if you fu*ked up just shoot Passo & retry.

Your solution works perfectly. However, checkpoint 13 puts you exactly at the start of where you need to be. Checkpoint 12 requires you to kill about 10 guys before you start sniping.

I upvoted, but you gotta fix up your solution so you can be as clear as humanly possible.

Take out the "contrary to what other people are saying" part. No, you're wrong. Because what other people are saying is that if you manually restart the checkpoint using the start menu, then it won't work. They are not wrong.

But you are correct in saying that if you let Passos die and "retry" the checkpoint, instead of manually restarting it with the pause menu, then you'll be fine!

definitely works. got the first six. hit the cutscene checkpoint then I missed the first one after it so I shot Passo, pretty funny when you shoot Passo it goes into slo-mo, it reloaded, hit the remaining guys and the achievement unlocked.

Chapter 3: Checkpoint 12. You will have to kill a total of 13 enemies without missing a shot. You won't be able to restart the checkpoint so if you mess up, quit out and reload the checkpoint. It took me around 6 tries so it can get frustrating.

Here's a video guide if needed

Chapter: 3, Checkpoint: 12

During this checkpoint you will need to cover Passos with a sniper rifle. This isn't too difficult, but it can be frustrating if you miss. The one thing to keep in mind is that your enemies are moving, so you need to shoot just ahead of them to make sure your bullet connects.

You can also use your concentration for this. So if you find that an enemy is moving too fast, slow them down your concentration by pressing the RS or RB.

Listen to Passos as he will tell you where the enemies are coming from. Once you kill all the enemies and get Passos to the other side without missing a shot, this will unlock. If you get to the second cut-scene and miss, you will need to restart from the previous checkpoint, or you can allow Passos to die and re-attempt the section. If you go past this cut-scene though, you will need to reload your checkpoint from the main menu.

The following video will show you where each enemy comes from. So if you're having difficulty you can follow it carefully and see where you need to move your aim to.

Ok, like Doodie Brown said, the checkpoint can be restarted, BUT It can't be done through the main menu. In order for it to work, at the second checkpoint, if you miss a guy, stop shooting and let passos get shot. If you press a to retry, it works and I got the achievement this way. Hopefully this helps clear things up.

Cover Passos With Perfect Aim
Chapter 3: Checkpoint 12. You will have to kill a total of 13 enemies without missing a shot. You will only be able to restart checkpoint before the little cutscene, if you miss after that you must quit and load Chapter 3: Checkpoint 12 again.

For this trophy you can only acquire it in Chapter 3, almost at the end of which you must use a rifle to escort your friend so that he arrives in the objective room.

At this point, there will be criminals that you must kill during the escort, and it is at this time that the trophy appears: you can not miss any one shot, and there are more or less 10 criminals for you to kill, that is, if you miss a shot, you must return the checkpoint.

Load up Chapter III, Checkpoint 13. Set the difficulty to Easy for increased Bullet Time rewards. You need to cover Passos with the Sniper Rifle without missing. You'll see that you need to lead the enemies considerably, meaning that you should aim about a pace in front of them. If you line up the reticle on them, the shot will usually land behind them. There is no need to go for head shots here, as any body shot will be a one-hit kill. Use your Bullet Time wisely and remember that the left stick zooms in/out.

Be aware that you will pass into Checkpoint 14 in the middle of this sequence. If you enter Checkpoint 14, miss, then restart the checkpoint and pass it, the trophy will not pop, even though you may have done Checkpoint 13 perfectly. You can restart Checkpoint 13, however.

This is the middle of chapter 3...Only the whole difficulty is that you have to kill all the enemies without missing at all, completely, the first time, in the sense that if you missed and started again from the checkpoint and the second time you kill everyone the first time , they won’t give you an achievement...

So prepare thoroughly, otherwise you will have to start the whole chapter over again, it is easy to get an achievement if you start the game with auto-aim, but if you start with auto-aim, you will lose a lot of achievements associated with free aim.

If you miss, kill Passos yourself, I did that and they gave me the trophy.

Everything is correct, but you can do it this way: select chapter 3 and checkpoint 12, set a hard aim and kill everyone without missing a single shot, it didn’t work, just replay checkpoint 12 again.

To clarify - Chapter 3, 12 checkpoint; Difficulty set to Easy; sight is free; on this difficulty, it’s better to aim for the groin - it’s more reliable, and enemies still die in one shot on this difficulty; if it doesn’t work out, then feel free to start from the checkpoint (be careful! - after Pasos runs up to the locked doors there will be a checkpoint, if you fail it, then start from the beginning of checkpoint 12).

Hello) the matter is a little different. to get a medal you need to not miss even once - the shooting itself consists of 2 (albeit invisible, but two! checkpoints), the 2nd begins with 3 people running sideways on the left, then 1 more on the right, 1 on the left and 1 from below. if you missed up to this point, we simply knock down our partner and replay. if at this point and after - alas, you will have to replay the entire level (((

Well, actually https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAEvCI5qyLo The 2nd checkpoint starts at 1:20, after the splash screen.

You can immediately load from the checkpoint, you don’t need to start the chapter from the beginning, you can simply reload this checkpoint if you miss, but if Passos gets to the point where enemies come from the left and right and then climb up the stairs towards him and you missed at this point, then exit immediately to the main menu of the game and select the chapter and checkpoint again because if you reload the checkpoint, it will load from the moment they just approach from the left and then from the right, then they will no longer give the trophy (Chapter 3, 12 checkpoint)

The hard sight didn't help me. When shooting, try to aim not at the enemy, but ahead of them. In general, train, after a couple of misses and overplays you will be a Voroshilov shooter You can also perform the “Hawkeye” feat here.
