PAYDAY: The Heist/ PAYDAY 2 - An Abusive relationship with a Swedish man named Almir Listo

I haven't seen any threads based on this game, only the micro-transaction controversy.

PD:TH & PD2 are bank robbing simulators developed by Overkill Studios, a Swedish based video game company that got into the shit a few years ago from insider trading and the terrible launches of two failed franchise.

Raid WW2, just PD2 but with a WW2 paint of coat that some how runs even worse then PD2.

Overkill's The Walking Dead, a horribly developed zombie themed game with Payday based gameplay elements, mainly 4 player co-op shooter to complete objects to progress throughout the level, the game was so badly received that Robert Kirkman himself to step in and take away the copyright to TWD forcing OVK to remove it from being purchased.

Now the devs shit out bad to semi mediocre DLC to keep their failing company a float, they've recently released a new dlc heist called 'Dragon Heist' which is just unoptimized as the last several maps.

I quit Payday 2 I can't remember when due to the hilariously terrible gameplay loop and DLC fest. I see no reason to come back since they've fixed none of that, and will almost certainly continue it with Payday 3.
For a while, sometime during 2017, they made all the DLC affordable and not 200 dollars and it was nice, nearly a constant stream of free shit after a white but of course.
Bo Anderson in his infinite wisdom fucks up the whole thing by being a greedy Swedish dickhead

It's pretty decent these days. The engine being 32bit makes the game have multiple issues like couple of the newer heists run like shit at points. Also Scarface character pack got delisted for license running out.

Holdout/Wave mode was added, Infamy 3.0 with infamy cap to 500 while only 100 are needed for achievement.

Some peepul play LoL, CSGO, Destiny 2 or something else as their grindy game, this is my shit.

Could be worse, I sold my TF2 items to get 2 pre-order copies of the game. I gave one to a friend of mine who turned out to be a dick, and then the game was half broken on release.
The moral of the story is, never pre-order.
Those preorder masks are stupid expensive these days.

I played PD2 from the beta to sometime around the John Wick release. It was fun with friends, and lua hacking in it was amusing. A lot of people did the money injection too and there was no way to detect it. Then they introduced that annoying prestige shit and the gameplay stopped being as fun.

As others have said, it's just a Paradox like DLC mill now.

This game that runs on the Source engine has lower graphical fidelity to Half Life 2 but somehow takes up 60 fucking gigabytes of hard drive space after a 30 fucking gigabyte download. There is no reason a game that looks like this with this level of ingame content should take up 60Gb.

I have good memories of tooling around on it with some friends, but I've long since walked away from it. Between my go-to buddy and I getting bored with it, one of the Crimefests being a hilarious shitshow (which one, I know), and Real Life Consequences, we swapped over to Warframe and chased that dragon for longer than we ought've.

1) Jacket is still the best heister and fuck you for thinking otherwise.
2) The music is still pretty cool, and the way most of the tracks flow ingame is something I always felt enhanced the maps.
3) THE THERMAL DRILL, GUYS! GO GET IT!

It's on Diesel, not Source.

I've had so many good fun memories with 2 but at the same time so many crashes because holy FUCK that engine, I couldn't believe it's mostly made for racing games and they somehow made this "work"

Microsoft Jacket best mod btw

Diesel was made for two racing games and then used on a bunch of FPS and 3PS. Also a lot of people say that FlatOut ran on Diesel but it didn't. That was on ROMU.

I thought it was because they removed all the DLC so they could have have one complete GOTY bundle. They only went back to PD2 to milk it for cash after The Raid and TWD bombed.

I still like the game. I'd play more because I like the theme, but all my friends are done with 4 player co-op shooters (no PD2, no Vermintide, no interest in Back 4 Blood) and playing with randoms isn't any fun.

I dropped it shortly after the release of the Yakuza skill deck. It's a decent game, but most of my boys had dropped it earlier and pugs in that community have been pure cancer since the first game. Still find it annoying that the design of the game encourages quiet lobbies to basically save-scum by resetting every time someone goofs instead of just rolling with it.

I expect Payday 3 to have all of the flaws of Payday 2, plus some new ones, Overkill are hacks.

They have a bundle on Steam that has all but Scarface and H3 now. Probably doesn't have the Silk Road campaign and the Dragon Heist that was just released.

RAID definitely is its own type of garbage. It runs on 64bit Diesel but the gameplay itself is just watered down PD2 and not fun with really shit level up system etc.
It was made by people who made the Golden Grin Casino which is not that bad but they made The Bomb heists too that are trash.

I enjoy Payday 2 quite a bit. It' s a fun game that lets me create some abominations unto our Lord and Savior John Moses Browning (Peace Be Upon Him) and also is great to play with friends if you're going loud. The gunplay is quite good, the heisters have a lot of character, the levels and missions are fun and replayable, and the sound track is kino.
