Man, American english has a crazy range of racist insults, it's actually impressive.

is this an actual picture of a cloaker from payday 2 or is it some mock up
i found it by googling "payday cloaker."[/QUOTE]
Yes
[QUOTE=Jarokwa;41955696]Despite it all Payday 2 is still one of my favourites among my game list, I still enjoy the game and it's great when you get a good team together, I don't regret buying the CCE edition and I'm not all too bothered about the Overkill VS Community deathmatch, sure I get annoyed at the game sometimes but not enough to whine pages long about it during an arguement that leads nowhere anyways, I do understand why some people are mildly annoyed(enraged) but that doesn't justify all the pitchforks and torches.
I just realized the entire arguement is over now and I'm not trying to fire anything back up, I just wanted to post this, that I still appreciate Payday 2 and Overkill.[/QUOTE]
It was either a huge design oversight not to include new weapons or heist after like 40-50 or more likely they left stuff out because of time/DLC.
I like the game, but I also understand why everyone is mad.
[QUOTE=Rents;41955719]Man, American english has a crazy range of racist insults, it's actually impressive.[/QUOTE]It has also been used to describe government agents and such, but yeah the racial connotations are readily there.

I think pretty much anywhere else it means ghost or spy/special forces.
[QUOTE=Rents;41955773]I think pretty much anywhere else it means ghost or spy/special forces.[/QUOTE]
according to google that's what it means. it also is a derogatory term for black dudes in the US, apparently.
i don't even know how "spook" would even work as a derogatory term. i mean, i understand "coon" and "nigger" and shit like that, but spook? fuck.

It's a harder grind with the payday system to get mods, i've wanted the green tactical light thing. I haven't gotten one and i am level 71.

Sure, but most of the weapons you unlock within the first 20 levels or so would work fine as basic gear, I wouldn't have minded if they were a wee bit more spaced out (or if the weapons themselves were more different, instead of like 6 slightly different AR's)
in general i really like the new designs of the specials in payday compared to the first game

i mean, look at the 'dozer from payday 1. he has this huge dumb globe helmet and has a disgusting dirty sanchez

new one looks way better, except for that broken glass on his visor

i kind of prefer the payday 1 shields, though. even though they had the dumbmasks and shit, they were a lot cooler. in payday 2 they were just the tan FBI guys with a hunk of metal.. the shield ITSELF is cooler in payday 2, though. makes a lot more sense.

even though cloakers aren't in payday 2 yet, i think they look super rad. in the first game they're wearing dumb masks. they were mostly completely hidden in the shadow, so their glowing eyes were spooky, though.
[img]http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111029173153/payday/images/5/55/Taser.jpg[/img]
in payday 1 the tasers just looked like heavy swat guys with ballistic masks and yellow.

in payday 2 they look like 80's japanese superheroes. also they look like alan wake if you shoot their helmets off.
I miss Bulldozer's white balaclavas, made them look like a skeleton at range.

I'm not sure of the validity of it but I've read that it was because they would blend in at night, like ghosts, and spook people who didn't realize they were there, like ghosts.

Probably cause whites thought they were scary.
I kinda liked the Payday 1 dozers, they always freaked me out for some reason. That helmet and white balaclava combo is some scary shit yo

Looks more silly than scary to me.
their radio chatter was terrifying though

You can sorta recreate Dallas' beef mask with Outlander mask, One nation under god decal, and Coral red/Matte blue color.
But yeah, they need to bring those back along with US Presidents and Santa.

Black and pink Hazard Santa mask. [B]fuck yea.[/B]
It said update 6 is live and I downloaded it but pagers are still tripping an alarm while my ecm is activated before killing a guard.
Validated files and all, it just does not work.

Not implemented yet. Only ECM opening ATMs is.

Did you read the changelog for update 6?
holy crap I tried to ace joker, had to kill my green swat and it took me 2 stryk magazines at point blank and I still had to finish him off with like 4 melee hits
They can take one hell of a beating, and turtle swats are devastating
I also aced inspire, even with the relatively short range being able to rez while on the move is extremely useful
[QUOTE=Plattack;41956292]Did you read the changelog for update 6?[/QUOTE]
No clue then.
