[QUOTE=Ericson666;40855756]Does Payday really have a "canon"?[/QUOTE]
It's been said somewhere that there will be references to the first game in Payday 2. The only exception being No Mercy obviously.
I also recall that regardless of if you tie him down or not, it's canon that the FWB manager was killed by the crew during the heist.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;40856762]tru fax, its on the first track of the ost, in the newscast segment, they say he was fatally wounded during the heist[/QUOTE]
The newspaper in Counterfeit also mentions him being killed in the bank heist.
I always felt the whole "modern day robin hood" thing was a bit forced and out of place. Assuming it's not just the crew making it up to make themselves feel better about robbing people and murdering hundreds of police officers.
I'm playing a game about gangsters and heists with dudes wearing creepy clown masks, stop trying to make me feel like the good guy!

Yeah, they may be robbing from greedy corporations but they kill hundreds of police officers in the process and even civillians if they have to.
I'm sure the whole "modern day Robin Hood" angle is supposed to be ironic.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;40857638]with the gameplay direction they're going with now, it could be canon that they don't kill anyone after the events of 1, considering heists are pretty much confirmed to be fully stealthable[/QUOTE]
I was happy to see that stealth is more viable in Payday 2.
So it's probably nothing, but their twitter randomly sent this, which wasn't even a reply:

the user's profile is completely blank which raises further questions

All will become clear?

i emailed overkill more than a year ago inquiring about mask replicas for sale, and they said they couldn't do it.
they said they only really have the original masks that cost thousands of dollars each to create. iirc they said they'd offer them if there was enough demand, but i'm not sure.
you guys should shoot an email to overkill sometime, they respond pretty quickly. hell, i even got a response from simon viklund at one point.

can't find the viklund email, but here's one i got in response when i asked about the wolf pack.

Check their twitter.

Speaking of Wolf and special vision, during the trailer when Wolf heads to the control room, there's a yellow wire sticking out of the right eye of his mask.

i don't see it. There is some kind of yellow reflection on the left eye of the mask, but it doesn't look much like a wire.
[QUOTE=PaChIrA;40860428]Wolf's gas mask please[/QUOTE]
i didn't like his gas mask because it had a fucking nose on it
I'm sure if they made enough money, they could produce cheap plastic versions of the masks.
Ah yeah, I went and watched it again, the yellow glow shows up on the top of the mask's eye ring then vanishes again, just a reflection.

or buy a varsity jacket and a pig mask and just rock the hotline miami look. i would be more intimidated of a hotline miami esque robber appearance over a guy in a suit and ballistic mask
[editline]1st June 2013[/editline]
also yeah, overkill need to have some serious merchandise like ammunition/medic duffel bags, shirts, wallets, masks, etc.
I'd definitely swag up if I had a payday 2 billfold
[editline]1st June 2013[/editline]
Their games would give them really good pull if they had more community features rather than just random matchmaking co-op. That was the downfall of the original game: there wasn't enough content to keep it surviving
I really hope they do upkeep with this/have tons of community addons

Didn't they say the engine wasn't mod-friendly though?
May be a modified / New engine?
[QUOTE=Ayane-152;40861285]Didn't they say the engine wasn't mod-friendly though?[/QUOTE]
I've tried to mod it, even if you unpack the files I'm amazed they managed to get anything done with it, the files are all unlabeled random gibberish.
I've always wondered why all game engines couldn't just be like Source with their files.
So... what's with this stuff that I'm reading about no bots in 2?
[QUOTE=TheJoker;40862682]So... what's with this stuff that I'm reading about no bots in 2?[/QUOTE]
The stuff is that there will be no bots in Payday 2.
[QUOTE=TheJoker;40862682]So... what's with this stuff that I'm reading about no bots in 2?[/QUOTE]
I could imagine it's because of the new 'class' things and multiple approaches to heists, bots probably would be too dumb to do anything.
If there's no bots they better improve their netcode or whatever. I get disconnected from 95% of the games I play in The Heist and that's the reason I don't play much now.
Only thing bots were good for in 1 was reviving and drawing fire
They could really improve bots if they let us choose their loadout and shit.
Also allow them to pick up things, they do in Left 4 Dead 2, why not here?
