Was on Reddit somewhere[/QUOTE]
It's pretty cool just sitting here refreshing this and seeing the numbers for chains and clover jump up every few seconds.
will someone explain to me what's happening with crimfest because I can't open the website
[QUOTE=BusinessRed;48784043]Kind of odd they used the HD clown mask mod and a screenshot from one of my old suit mods for this graphic:

Doesn't look like the HD clown mask mod there, it's probably just one of the numerous Dallas mask images they probably have. Really weird how they're using that screenshot though.

website's down from too much traffic

Every 48 hours there's a new set of challenges. Each challenge completed unlocks a new reward during Crimefest. Road to Crimefest ends on the 14th, Crimefest begins on the 15th.
There's six sets of four challenges, along with one by itself. The first four are;
Kill one million enemies using a Whiskey Bottle
Steal 100k nukes in Meltdown
Get Pete Gold's Twitter follower count to 50k
Kill two million cloakers.
We don't know what the rewards unlocked from these challenges will be, but we will be given a "hint" once they're complete.
oooh 1.000.000 bottles of whiskey on the wall, 1.000.000 bottles of whiskey.
Take one down, pass it around, 999.999 bottles of whiskey on the wall.
This is gonna be a loooong Crimefest you can be sure of that.
[QUOTE=Jetamo;48784456]Steal 100k nukes in Meltdown[/QUOTE]
Actually, it seems like you have to do Meltdown 100k times ("Steal the warheads for Vlad in the Meltdown heist 100,000 times during the Road to Crimefest event.")
Also: we have until the event ends to unlock the challenges; they don't lock after 48 hrs.

The Pete Gold thing is gonna go down exactly like the group members thing did in crimefest 2014. Lots of bots and pestering friends.
[url]http://www.overkillsoftware.com/games/roadtocrimefest[/url] isn't down anymore.
As much as I love Pete, I have to say that I cannot see myself making a twitter account just to follow him and never use the thing again.
Thye're gonna give us the rewards eventually anyway, right?
Because at this rate, it doesn't look like we'll make it through even half of them.

As said before in the thread,cheats.
Anyway the meltdown challenge is probably gonna end before I come back home,but I wouldn't mind farming meltdown
[QUOTE=PaperMartin;48785306]As said before in the thread,cheats.[/QUOTE]
After 12 hours, people would have started cheating but we're still a long way off.
[QUOTE=Loadingue;48785339]After 12 hours, people would have started cheating but we're still a long way off.[/QUOTE]
and we've still got a long time left, so no worries.
I am honestly expecting a fallout crossover from the meltdown challenge
[editline]29th September 2015[/editline]
And voice update from pete gold's challenge
[editline]29th September 2015[/editline]
Chain's challenge can lead to two thing
New melee system
Or another black character
I just noticed that they swapped Houston and Clover's objectives.
[QUOTE=RichyZ;48785408]i'd be perfectly ok with no more new characters for the rest of payday's lifetime[/QUOTE]
Sidney
What if the final challenge is the announcement of payday 3 for fall 2016
I have a dream
Does anyone have the voiceline IDs for Captain Winters for Pocohud?
Thanks!
[QUOTE=RichyZ;48785408]please be a feature and not just another set of arms and voices

what we really need is a blind heister
jiro is in headcanon
Ok, after actually encountering Winters a few times now, I can safely say that he is a fucking joke.
He announces his presence, shows up a minute later, then dies near-instantly to a rush of explosives and/or molotovs the end. He's like the anti SWAT van, an immobile enemy that can barely hurt you and dies in seconds.
Followed Pete at Twitter. Not much but hey, every bit helps.
Overkill I have to commend you, you've managed to create an event that isn't totally stupid, it's still going to be heavily exploited I reckon but that's just shit you can't control anyway. I suppose a backhanded congratulations isn't a congratulations at all, so congratulations. For real. And hey! Probably the first company to do 'a doing this = reward' event and actually explain what happens if whatever thing isn't done. That's fucking commendable.
I have no idea if this is rigged or not but at the very least you kinda can't rig 50,000 followers without being really blatant about it, so that's legit.

This is interesting. I wonder how they're doing this.
Although this is something that just slightly bothers me:
[quote][B]When are the unlocked rewards released?[/B]
During Crimefest. This year, we have worked around the clock making sure we can bring you all features unlocked during Crimefest itself.[/quote]
and
[quote][B]What happens if the community fails a challenge during the Road to Crimefest?[/B]
The reward connected to the challenge is not released.[/quote]
So you guys worked around the clock on stuff that might never be released? I guess it's six in one half dozen in the other, but wouldn't that be a huge waste if you pay employees for shit and then just go "oh well into the trash it goes."
[QUOTE=Dougley;48782161]OVK obviously planned for it. They wouldn't throw in a random "get this dude a ton of twitter followers" if they didn't expect cheaters. Most of crimefest is probably to appeal to investors and to guise people they're unlocking rewards, rather than just free stuff being dumped.[/QUOTE]
Doesn't bother me any. Free content and if it's for investors they won't care if we cheat it.

To be fair, what are they supposed to do? Releasing it as DLC if milestones weren't met would just make people angry. I'm just happy that they actually came prepared this time. Maybe they're starting to learn you should show up with content ready rather than promising something you'll take a year to deliver. If they are, that would make me very happy.

I think they just have a lot of trust in the Payday community
I mean fuck we managed to complete two ridicolously impossible events by now :v

It's the photo of the actual Dallas mask that's the desktop icon for P:TH. It was also one of the placeholders used in the merch store that made everyone think the store masks were much better quality than they really are.

Still, why slap an actual photo onto a fan mod?
If you go to the FBI files and look in the internal memo's, there's a new one from Winters noting how the gang are focusing on cloakers
[quote]Commissioner,
Sir, I’m sure your analysis department is all over this, but I wanted to ensure you were made aware of a recent disturbing development. It would appear that the Payday gang have been paying particular attention to our cloaker units. Reports of incidents of increased and sustained violence against them are flooding in.
Can you think of why the Payday gang is suddenly turning on cloakers like that?
Regards,
Winters [/quote]
