'''Bullet-time''' is a special visual effect appeared in numerous episodes of the series. It has been shown that in this affect time slows down time to the point that muzzle flash can clearly be seen fading away. It is usually dignified to be used by the screen being given a red tint and lasting for few seconds. The concept originated from cinema, and was popularized by the 1999 film ''The Matrix'' and the 1998 film ''Blade''. In [[Madness: Project Nexus (Classic)]] it appears as an ability to help user to percieve time at a slower pace. However, unlike the bullet-time in [[Madness Combat|main series]], the bullet-time in the game doesn't appear as a red screen with the time getting slowed-down but instead characters creating afterimages when moving, and unlike in the main series it can last down half-a-minute if the the bar for it is full.

Bullet-time makes a very brief debut in [[Madness Combat 4: Apotheosis]], when [[Hank J. Wimbleton|Hank]] is shot by the zombified [[Agent|1337 agent]].

Bullet-time makes its proper debut in [[Madness Combat 5: Depredation]]: It appeared when Hank was gunning down 1337 agents. In [[Madness Combat 6.5]], bullet-time is used as a visual effect to detail a [[M203|M203 grenade]] that [[Deimos]] fired at three [[Agency Against Hank Wimbleton|A.A.H.W. units]], right before they were blown up by the grenade. In [[Madness Combat 7: Consternation]], it appears again, this time showing Hank firing a [[Semi-auto shotgun]] directly into [[Mag Agent: Torture|Mag Agent: Torture's]] face. In [[Madness Combat 8: Inundation]], [[Jesus]] uit used to show Jesus holding the giant bullet of a [[Mag Agent: V2|Mag Agent: V2's]] [[Desert Eagle]], and then again appeared when Jesus was dodging a dozen rounds from the [[Auditor|Auditor's]] [[minigun]].

In [[Madness: Project Nexus (Classic)]], it is an ability that the player can use that slows down all gameplay, excluding bullets, which is powered by kills. It takes about 20 kills to completely fill the Bullet-Time bar at the top of the screen. Despite what the [[Madness: Project Nexus (Classic)/Story Mode#.5B1-A.5D Jail|tutorial]] says, the Bullet-Time bar does not have to be completely full to be used. In the [[Madness: Project Nexus (Classic)/Story Mode#.5B1.5-E.5D Vaults|last]] [[Madness: Project Nexus (Classic)/Story Mode#.5B1.5-F.5D Solarium|two]] levels of [[Madness: Project Nexus (Classic)/Story Mode#Episode 1.5: Ground Zero|Episode 1.5]], the Bullet-Time bar is replaced by a "Magic Bar"; the player can no longer activate Bullet-Time, but instead use the [[Halo]] to fire Nexus bolts.

In [[Madness: Project Nexus (Classic)/Arena Combat|Arena Combat Mode]], [[Madness: Project Nexus (Classic)/player stats#Awareness|perks]] can be unlocked that can make bullet-time more efficient, e.g. retaining your normal movement speed.
