Behind the scenesEdit

GameplayEdit

The members of UFE are some of the most difficult enemies to kill in Max Payne 3 due to their extremely tough body armor and to make matters worse most of them wear Ballistic Helmets making headshots more difficult to pull off. They are also equipped with high power rifles, such as the FAL or the G6 Commando. They have Tier-1 equipment, such as smoke grenades and Grenades.

CreationEdit

The Unidade de Forças Especiais is a fictional police force created for the Max Payne 3 game by Rockstar. It is based on and inspired by the Rio de Janeiro's BOPE unit, and São Paulo's own GATE, GARRA, and GOE troops.^[1]

Pre-order patchEdit

A real-life physical patch of the UFE, ready to be sewn to clothing, is available as a pre-order bonus of Max Payne 3 from selected Canadian and South African merchants.^[2][3]
