Another thing would be massively reducing damage dealt by enemies, while also reducing damage delay. The higher the difficulty, the smaller the damage delay. For example, a Skulldozer on OD does 24 damage a shot, but fires every 0.1 seconds. Damage delay would be 0.1 seconds so the initially low 24 damage quickly becomes 240 damage per second.
Basically, reduce damage dealt and damage delay based on difficulty. What about that?
[QUOTE]It is with great satisfaction that we also can announce that PAYDAY 3 production is officially initiated and at a full design stage. I’d like to especially clarify, that this project will enjoy as much time as we deem needed. It will be done when it’s done. This is our single most important brand today and the cornerstone of our business and we will treat it accordingly. Updates in the near future might be scares and far between. You simply don’t rush PAYDAY 3.[/QUOTE]

I hope to god they fucking use the engine they're using to make their TWD game, and not a recycled Diesel like that WW2 game of theirs.
I'm ready to set my expectations as low as possible, and still end up disappointed.
EDIT: So how much of the current content do you think is going to be kept, and how much is gonna get inevitably split back off into DLC again?

I expect it to be identical to the way PD2 was done
Will it have Cloakers crashing people again?

Maybe it's gonna be the Tasers.

Dozers trying to sprint but they don't have animations for it, so crash.
Also what I'd love from a Payday 3 is having more variety in heists, not just DC and that. I liked the Hardcore Henry heists since you went to another place in the world with different looking enemies. I can't say the same for the other heists that take in Las Vegas and New York, the desert Murkywater station (what good response time for the local police force out in the middle of nowhere, you'd think Murkies would defend it themselves) considering they all reuse the same enemy models, makes it feel like we're still in the same place.
Also proper modding support with possible actual model replacement with custom models, please.
here's to hoping it's actually balanced and stays that way instead of going down the "powercreep DLC" path PD2 went down
and here's to hoping we get actual heists. not "rob a bank cause it's got gold in it's vault" or "go fetch some warheads/goats for some ruskie because reasons" these don't feel like actual heists (i'd argue that Big Bank is the FWB of PD2. although PD2 really lacks the atmosphere PDTH had.)
and here's a list of heists i'd like to see ported to PD3
Framing Frame (what a flat)
Jewelry Store (as much as i'd like to see ukranian job/joj i'd rather see this one ported instead)
Firestarter (this is the only hector heist i want to see ported because it's actually enjoyable unlike Ratatouille/WatchDoges)
Murky Station (ECM Rush Raid but better)
i had 5 other heists i had on the list but i was like "wait, these are pretty dumb" and removed them, they are the following
Hoxton Revenge
Diamond Store
Boiling Point
GenSec Arena/Alleso Heist (it's hard on the eyes and loud on DW/OD sucks anyway.)
Green Harvest (although i kinda don't like the 100% chance of an escape if the alarm goes off. it's really dumb and counterintuitive if you play solo and secure ALL of the bags.)
My only hope for Payday 3 would be that they switch to that Valhalla engine and not use fucking Diesel
Seriously just looking at the game now and its wacky as shit optimization, you can tell that the entire thing is like a 100 year old corroded rollercoaster held together by duct tape and glue from the Chinese dollar shop
Oh another thing I forgot to mention, I hope they actually work on getting proper stealth mechanics this time around, they should look at other video games, see how it's done. Fix the desynch issues, maybe take a thing or two from the earlier SC games: Giving the player a visibility and noise meters, the ability to distract guards with it, the ability to go back into casing mode so you can blend and move around in public areas easily (within believability, eg the lobby in Big Bank) and within stealth only heists, they could make it more movie based (I liked part of the Golden Grin Casino stealth due to that movie feeling) and have more player involvement, rather than holding F to enable an objective where Bain does the hacking, the players could get a minigame with its own difficulties based on difficulty choice, maybe a lockpicking minigame when it comes to that, I've seen a few games do that (Including a Gmod RP gamemode long ago)
Just a massive overhaul in general, so it's more fun and less tedius/boring.
One lockpicking [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxl-O1Hnjls"]example[/URL] (They could probably make it harder/easier depending on what skills the player has/doesn't have.)
What I wish is that weapons wont be carbon copies of each other, stat wise.

If the engine is a "next-gen" Diesel with upgraded visuals but still no facial animation I'll flip my lid.
Regarding heists, I would really rather a return to quality over quantity. Having switched back and forth between Payday 2 and The Heist the past few days, so many of the missions in 2 feel so totally nothing. Even when they have fancy setpieces or a pretty setting, they almost all feel like some variation on "shoot man, hold E on objective, move bags".
In comparison, each individual heist in The Heist feels much more memorable beyond the surface level. Maybe this comes down in part to presentation. Like Demoham said, Big Bank could be considered the First World Bank of 2, and yet, despite having much more spectacle (the giant pig, the Beast, the bus escape) and a larger fancier map, it just feels so much less special than FWB.

Of course they're going to use Valhalla ; they wouldn't buy an incomplete engine for a shit ton of money and invest much more to finish it,and use it only on a single game (being the TWD game)
Well if they keep using lua to do AI logics, a new engine isn't gonna do jack shit for slow AI reactions (lua is a single threaded scripting language)
Even though I don't play much of this game anymore, my 1100 hours make it hard to not be excited for a sequel, especially if that promises engine upgrades. Ideally, they'd make the game in Unreal 4, and allow community mods / updates the way Killing Floor 2 does. But, I'm not hopeful.
[QUOTE=Dick Slamfist;51828361]hey has anyone in this thread ordered the official OVK payday masks? I'm thinking of doing somehting wildly indulgent and ordering the dallas and hoxton ones to hang on a wall somewhere and maybe one day do a Hoxton cosplay[/QUOTE]
I've got the whole lot of the OG four. They're fuckin' great. Got 'em on my wall.

Well, these are all really plain. Didn't really expect anything else, but still, black, grey, blue-grey and some silver accents just isn't interesting to look at.
The font on the legendary is very Art Deco. If the guns had been more Art Deco, I woulda been totally sold.
The sentence "inspired by the great warriors throughout history" lead me to expect a bit more variety. Like Roman-inspired guns. Those woulda bin sick.
"As usual the safe contains 16 skins and having the extraordinary legendary skin "The Assassin" its for the the akimbo Smg Krinkov and will be an amazing skin to dual wield"
good ole overkill formatting
the first thing I want in Payday 3 is for them to fix the awful updating system
[t]http://i.imgur.com/0exTC95.png[/t]
35.5GB for a bunch of skins
Holy crow these skins are bland as all hell. Let's skin neutral toned guns with more neutral tones, they'll look super interesting for sure!
Bit late, but apparently in Update 130 they 'fixed' the normal SWAT units spawning from the vents in Undercover.
But you know how they fixed it?
[sp]Disabling the vent spawns entirely! Don't even bother planking them.[/sp]
I wonder how much of the cast is going to dissappear for Payday 3
My guess is Payday 3 will default have Dallas, Hoxton, Chains, Clover, Sydney and Dragan

Might as well add Sokol to that list if his VA is available because the crew needs a technician.

Well besides Wolf's glaring issue and Ron Perlman's schedule for doing voicelines, what's stopping any of the original characters from coming back on a feasibility level? The actors aren't hard to get for the most part, as I understand.
I feel like out of all the tie-in characters, John Wick would be the most likely to stick around. They seem to tie the Payday universe in with the John Wick one a bit more than the other ones(like continental coins being currency). Plus it's going to be getting more sequels.
I just want actual Keanu Wick and not ONE hit ONEder Wick
