Nicely summarizes most of the skins that were added.[/QUOTE]:v::v::v::v: // DEFEAT ALMIR'S FISTO TO END ASS ASSAULT // :v::v::v::v:
The only reason this update was shit is because it was "free"
[sp]excluding the p2w crates which are not free[/sp]
Where the heck is the voice line update anyway? We just got 49 minutes of new dialogue in the files but not in-game. Also I'm guessing they're reserving the apparent updated Wick model for their John Wick 2 crossover.

I disagree if you're talking about the quality of the content. Some of it is very buggy/janky, but nothing about it seems worse than the standard of paid DLC.
A lot of the skins are ugly, but I think the slaughterhouse and FWB skins are a vast improvement. Hell, some the slaughterhouse skins actually look decent at lower quality levels (although it does look like you've just beaten someone to death with your gun, rather than shot them with it). Also as much as I dislike the meme masks, they look as good as 3D memes can to be honest.
I do agree though if you mean that they wouldn't release basic animation and AI updates as paid content.
I got that deagle skin in mint, kinda neat
I hate this crate system already, almost got a buzzsaw skin and it was slow enough that it would reasonably land on it, but suddenly it slightly nudged it to the fucking bow. I ain't buying a DLC for a skin for a weapon I'll never use.
I finally got the temp BLT fix working, So I was able to go through and find/catalog a bunch of the new Heister Voice IDs.
They seem to load along with the old heist specific dialogue, so stuff like Big Bank should work.
So whenever BLT and Pocohud get updated for post crimefest Payday, they'll be there to use.
In case you want to annoy people with the speech from Heat.
Edit: They should be listed on the Voiceline ID spreadsheet as usual.

Nope. Watch more Pixar movies. :vs:
Just saw what the final day was
Overkill...just, fuck yourselves. I don't have a big rant for this one. Just go fuck a dick.

Last day summarized in 1 picture.
I'm not even mad.
I'm just a bit... disappointed. Jumping animations are nice but... yeah. I'm just disappoint that this company whom I liked is kind of taking the piss out of us, but I just want to give the benefit of the doubt.
Y'know, back around December last year, I was like, holy shit, we've got new characters, new heists, bigger heists, a new developer working on shit and Overkill working at the same time, we've got tons of room to improve. We've got all kinds of shit on the horizon and all kinds of things to fulfill. And I said to my girlfriend, y'know what, I think 2015 is going to be the best year Payday's ever had.
shit
Well today's been nice, got a Mint-Conditioned Yggdrasil, Beta-2, Assault Wave, Frenzy, and Victim Shower off the market. Might be able to make some decent money off these when the Market finally puts stuff into listings by quality again.
I wonder how many people got a copy of payday to play it for 15 minutes, and ranted about the microtransations in the review.

Still not unjustified in doing so.
Did the pig, didn't get safe or drill. Restarted, nothing, not in steam inv either. Still got achievement.

The unfortunate thing is it's probably only still rated positively because the majority of the people who wrote positive reviews I reckon no longer play payday or give a shit about what's going on with it
I mean we've got 159,000 reviews and only 20k players a day tops
I think if all those people came back the reviews would swiftly change to negative
still in any case any time someone comes on the payday store page they're gonna scroll down, see a big fat endless list of negative reviews and go fUCK no I'm out

That seems to be a common problem, they'll fix it eventually.
I'm gonna get boxed to death but here it goes:
I like the meme masks. I would even go as far as to say they are better than the ones we got from Vlad.

That's not exactly a high bar you've set, most of those Vlad masks are pretty crap. About the only one I really like is the Groucho glasses

Christ, man. You're acting as if the game has been totally ruined when really the core game hasn't changed. Are the microtransaction, and some of the rewards shitty? Yes, but honestly, it's not like payday has been completely ruined and the developers don't care at all.
I think it might be time to take a break from posting, in this thread at least.

What's the problem with that? The reviews were accurate when they were posted, the experience they had was sufficiently positive for them to recommend the game to others, and that says something.
The current most helpful reviews are all negative, and together explain to any new customers what they should take into account when considering a purchase. It's a more truthful representation of the game that the initial reviews are positive, with current reviews being negative.
You have a heavy bias against the game, and that's fine, there are good reasons for that (which for the most part you have elaborated upon well). But if we're talking about informing people about whether the game is good or not, it's much better to be honest, and in my honest opinion, the game is very good. It's provided most people in this thread (myself included) with hundreds of hours of enjoyment with their friends.
Leaving negative reviews is one of the few ways the community has to 'strike back' against anti-consumer/anti-player policies, and I'm grateful for the effect it has, but it's not exactly truthful. The system is not there for you to object to company practice, and those with hundreds or even thousands of hours use of a product suddenly claiming that it isn't worth the price of purchase due to recent changes, or a developer going back on a promise is not only false and unhelpful to new customers, but also malicious. You're not writing for any potential player's benefit, you're writing to hurt the company.
Posting negative reviews because you're mad is dumb, wanting honest positive reviews to change is worse.

The core game hasn't changed, but the rest of the game has been shoved full of so much DLC, advertisements, and microtransactions that honestly I have no passion at all for playing the game when I used to love it
Payday 2, as a whole, is just shit now, good gameplay doesn't redeem everything else being the fucking worst
so, yeah, the game has been totally ruined

You know, as much as I wish it wasn't, a developers (or in this case, likely the publisher- Starbreeze) end goal will, in most cases, always be able earning money. DLC is the way they earn money, and it's likely just Overkill working with a quota set in place by Starbreeze.
Besides, the DLC has always been optional, just like the microtransactions. It's shitty but it's in no way forced for you to play the game. Plus, after the weapon rebalance you don't even need DLC to kick ass and hit that 42 damage, because basically every gun is decent now.
