PAYDAY 2

Also you can join a match that is 99% complete and get your full share of the reward for doing nothing. Pretty sweet if you are the one who just joined, but a big exploit

 

Or the scumbag host can kick you seconds before reaching the escape point, making all your effort a waste of time + you get mad in the process which is exactly what these assholes want.

Chimeray believe it or not some Swedish ISPs have issues with Steam traffic atm. Probably that.

Maybe that explains why I am unable to find any lobbies at the moment. Just my luck when I respecced and is short on cash.

[Chimeray]

And now it works again

Not here, still just getting "Failed joining game" on any lobby. Can't even create games either.

Started working later last night for me!

O also grenades. Flash, smoke and explosive would be great. They would be picked like the med pack and ammo packs. So they wouldn't be too overpowered, but could be very helpful in escaping at the end of missions on hard difficulties.

It is pretty fun game! I was surprised how many heists this game had but I agree with others that they have little variety in gameplay. Sneaking is pretty hard to pull off but doesn't seem too impossible.

The crime.net issue is a bit pain but I noticed you can fix it by restarting steam, needs a couple of tries and you should be able to see online games again.

Noticed the Hurg in nightclub mission.

Ukrainian job on hard = lots of money and XP and you can solo it easily

[jaboo224]

Gotta say, this is one of the best games i have played in a while im a huge fan of heat so that probably helps haha

[Zyn]

What most people do now is just get one person with shaped charges, and run the jobs Ukrainian Job, Four Stores and Nightclub over and over, guns blazing. It's fast money, experience, and cards, and it's much faster than stealthing most things. Since there is no bonus to stealthing most jobs, people do not care about being silent. Especially considering that jobs like Nightclub pay the same regardless of stealth or not.

 

Also "Framing Frame" day 3 is impossible.

[Vilham]

its very hard if you want to get the money, but actually with a mastermind you can kill 4 guards and then restrain the last one. Easy.

[Zyn]

And I realized that you can solo Mallcrashers pretty fast, with the tripmines of course. As a Technician, I find this easy as heck. Just place the mines in the center of shops or near wares, and shoot them. 50k worth of stuff broke in ~1 min and back to the van.

 

Cash Card needs to be either A) removed or B) worth it, as right now I am swimming in cash, 10 million in fact, and the last thing I want is a meager extra 3000 dollars. Whenever you get a cash card, it's a defeat.

 

Aslo fix the van on Bank job, we just hauled 8 bags to the van and the doors didn't open so we could throw the loot in the back. What a waste of time.

Meleeing from enemies is bullshit btw. the way it distributes damage and the onscreen effects is retarded.

[Algor]

What is the offshore money about? Also why does Bain have to have verbal diarrhea every time in the lobby? That should just play the first time you play a particular mission. I have my Music at like 10% and SFX at 25% and I can still barely hear anyone on the mic.When people aren't trying to exploit the hell out of the game and make as much XP/Cash as fast as they can, it's very hard to actually plan because no one can hear each other.
