I didn't think Bulldozers visors could smash in PD2? did they recently change it so they can?

Visors have 3 stages. Black, angular mask, then that flies off and reveals the glossy visor, when that smashes they die.

And they always broke for me.

they have been able to since the start
I'm convinced that it's impossible to solo stealth the Jewelry Store. :v:

On Overkill with hot dog stand? Probably.
You've gotta have every single right skill to do it solo though.
I solostealthed the Jewelry Store on Overkill earlier. Now I ended up killing four civies outside to keep them from setting the alarm off, but I did it. With the cops out, you'd have to start off by killing them most likely.
Hell, I can't even solo stealth it on easy. Is there a skill that makes controlling civvies easier or do I just need to run around and constantly press the F button to keep them down?

It seems like I take my eyes off them for one second to loot a bag and all of the sudden there's 400 SWAT members storming the store.

Basically get a ton of stuff in Mastermind. Longer shout range, dominator, extra cable ties.
Anything having to do with civilians.
Also increased stamina and body bagging is an awesome idea.
So I don't actually need to go into Ghost to do shit all stealthy-like? :v:
[QUOTE=Big Ben;41741768]So I don't actually need to go into Ghost to do shit all stealthy-like? :v:[/QUOTE]
Mastermind is actually the stealth class, funny enough.
Ghost is basically for people who want to go fast, get better loot than anyone else, and be an assistant tree to Mastermind.
On that note, fuck Lucky Charm.
[QUOTE=Mr. Zombie;41741810]Ghost is basically for people who want to go fast, get better loot than anyone else, and be an assistant tree to Mastermind.

Also, Ghost is supposed to be the primary stealth class, but Mastermind ends up being the most necessary for it because of the pager system and crowd control. Some levels though work better for a Ghost, such as the nightclub where a Ghost really can shine since the pagers aren't an issue. I'm sure there will be more mission like that in the full game.
My plan is to main Ghost, then split about 25 to 30 points between Mastermind and Enforcer, mostly mastermind.
This is my Level 100 Plan: [url]http://www.pd2skills.info/profile/coldmute-3/[/url]
I've got a couple other variants in mind but they're all roughly like that.
has overkill gotten mad at people who modify the game for purely aesthetic purposes? because I'd love to post a tutorial on how to get rid of the chromatic aberration effect, but I dunno if they want people digging through the game files even if it's for changes that don't affect gameplay
I made this skill tree loadout not the best but will help for getting infamous items, using the saw, wearing the big armor, and for shotgun use.

So I just finished installing the Beta thanks to a very generous friend, and I'm wondering what I need to know--stuff in general and stuff that's different from the original Payday: The Heist so I don't get my ass handed to me as soon as I start.

-No cloakers (As of now but who knows if they're comin back)
-You can actually stealth some heists
-Shotguns work better than the first game and don't have the range/spread of a sneeze
-Don't shoot the guard/officer if he outlined, it means a Mastermind converted him to be on your team
-Always wait and listen to Bain if you do Rats, he usually says the wrong ingredient the 1st time
-If a guard is down before the heist begins, answer the pager (3rd time will sound off alarms)
I'm sure there is more but thats what I have for you. Have fun.

And don't shoot them if they have a blue outline, but if it is red it means they have been pointed out just like in the first one.
Just a heads up, [url=http://www.change.org/petitions/overkill-software-implement-the-old-hoxton-s-va-as-a-dlc-pack-or-through-a-patch]Bail out Hoxton[/url] has 1,285 signatures at the moment, only needs a little over 200 left. We're close to likely getting Hoxtone back!

I don't exactly care for old Hoxton or New Hoxton. Most of the actual discussions between the characters aren't very involved anymore. I don't even recall if they talk with Bain, seems more like Bain is talking to anyone listening ;
In the first payday, I remember them yelling at Bain when the plan was turning to shit. Or telling Bain progress status.
[QUOTE=Mellowbloom;41738313]wow host thanks for leaving while we were waiting at the escape car it's not like we wanted any reward for our time or anything[/QUOTE]
Tell me about it, this morning I tried to get a few quick games in before I left for work and the host kept fucking leaving just as we were getting ready to escape. Real dick move IMO.
As someone who only played the first Payday for 2 hours, what's so bad about this Hoxton's voice versus the old Hoxton?
[QUOTE=Whyt546;41742469]As someone who only played the first Payday for 2 hours, what's so bad about this Hoxton's voice versus the old Hoxton?[/QUOTE]
Basically they killed the original Hoxton, the new one doesn't have a British accent, is blonde when the original wasn't, he doesn't have a ponytail (That is some serious stuff) and basically isn't the Hoxty I love.
I know they probably did this to match the character of the web series. It's just not the same, but if they manage to return it as a DLC/Free character I will happy to use it again.
Anyone else getting tired of pubs always trying to stealth things? Everyone seems to want to stealth everything now, and while it's nice when it works, when it doesn't you're worse off cause you might not have armor, silenced guns, etc. Most games I join now seem to be trying to stealth stuff, though I'm not opposed to just sneaking in to position ourselves properly.
I usually play Chains when I play Payday. But when Payday 2 came out I figured I'd start playing Hoxton because of his voice... boy, was I disappointed.
I'm going to be mad if the dino mask did not make it in. I have yet to see it :(

Actually a dev tweeted something along the lines of "The current status is that everyone who signed would need to pay 60 dollars to pay for his VA"
Pete Gold is a professional VA and therefore costs a lot more money then some less known VA.
not saying it couldnt happen but why dont they just get another brit with an accent?

This is a legitimate concern I have. Have they said anything about this?

I doubt it, the AI is a pretty much a after thought, considering they original weren't planning on having AI bots..
