GoonMod update going out, somebody try out the new National Guard and let me know how badly it fucks your computer and connection

http://download.paydaymods.com/download/patchnotes/goonmod/24 posted:

- Updated compatibility to 1.46.x
- StatBoost weapon mods now cost 5 Gage Coins
- Excessive Force and National Guard Response mutators now updated spawning methods
- Warning: The updated mutators will cause extreme slowdown on slower computers

You can also put gimmeaboost in the Redeem Codes screen in the GoonMod options (if you've not changed all your prices) and it'll give you 5GC for free

Not a DLL one, I pushed two to the BLT lua to add localizations though. What broke?

Ok double post, but if you're having the having the same problem as above and it's crashing then you'll have to redownload this version: https://github.com/JamesWilko/Payday-2-BLT/releases/download/1.07/Payday2BLT_r11_r5.zip
There'll probably also be a mods/mods/ folder which you can delete, since it was being created mistakenly

If you're just having the error: base_mod_etc problem then you can safely update again now

Basically, don't push updates when you're sick because you'll gently caress it up

All the monthly jobs as well as We Do It Live have been changed. Instead of using the HBV, we're to use suits. I guess this is to fix some confusion with armor bags? I'm not sure why they would do it otherwise. Weapon specifications remain unchanged, Platypus/Judge for We Do It Live and AMCAR/88 for the monthly jobs.

I'm glad I can switch from Muscle to Grinder, personally.

e: I guess it's cool that the monthlies, which are all about nostalgia, are now achievable at level 0.

It must be. Many people didn't even know that you wear a suit at the start when you take the armour bag.

It's taken away the only reason I'd ever use Ex-President and I think that is quite sad.

I don't know why this and We Are Rockstars On This Job weren't added to the rotation, either. As of 93.1 it's the exact same thing as the other monthlies.

I always thought ex-presidents was budget grinder but last night when someone told me (and then I confirmed) that every single time your armor breaks your entire health regen battery is drained - even if you didn't take health damage. Now it's not just budget grinder, it's poo poo. I thought the "complete drain for any amount of health regen" was somewhat obnoxious but at least it made some degree of sense. The battery draining even on armor break and 0hp damage is just stupid.

Anyway we did both Firestarter and Framing Frame last night to knock out the achievement and monthly and it was fine. The only part which was really bad was forgetting how truly bad bag-moving is at level 0: slow to pick up, slower to walk, you can't throw for poo poo...with paintings it's not a big deal, but weapons? servers? :negative:

Nope, did a Deathwish Beneath the Mountain and mine took out the ceiling turret with alacrity.

DW Beneath the Mountain is surprisingly manageable too, once we figured out that it's best to move together to blow up each radar rather than scattering. ie, basic teamwork :v:

We don't need to have that dialogue because it's obvious, trivial, and has already been had a thousand times.
After some discoveries by redditors, it turns out that Beneath the Mountain got about 80% of the way through production as a map you could also stealth. This explains a lot about the layout of cover in the place and some of the weirder tasks. The only really interesting stealth features appear to have been getting a hostage to a retinal scanner in the starting area and a countdown timelock on the interior airlock.

Actually ex-presidents is pretty rocking hth. If you have aced bullseye and a suit, you can instantly restore your armor by shooting a cop. I've been doing solo DW with it.

That's a pretty specific build for a perk deck theoretically designed for both dodge and armor, though. I'd also argue Grinder is still better because in DW the important states are "have any armor" against "have no armor" and bullseye works the same in both situations.

I mean, I'm glad to see it working for you but Shittier Budget Grinder still seems applicable. The one thing I do like is that your teammates can help charge up your health battery, but the bad part of that is you still have to break your armor to get the regen to fire. On DW that can be more than a little dangerous in a suit + low health (say you just got revived by a helpful GET THE gently caress UP)

Steam messaged a payday 2 modder friend with an innocent question, find out they won't be able to answer until they get back from their all expenses paid trip to visit the Overkill offices. I didn't ask what he was there for, but it sounds like some sort of offer was potentially in the works. (He also played with their QA team, outperformed all of them in kills, and got whomever's account he was on a couple achievements).

My pipe, it fattens.

Does anyone want to help me get this new christmas safe achievement? Pubbing it feels impossible and I refuse to do stealth, for stealth involves not clicking cops.

edit: Earthmoving update: sadly, it doesn't seem easily possible (except maybe with a rocket launcher..hm...) to get the globe past the metal detectors on FWB. On the bright side, its location is asynchronous, so you can have all four heisters standing in the air in different parts of the lobby.

I touched the stove again.

Overkill difficulty Aftershock. Join in with the pubbies milling about failing to even locate the trucks. I do this for them.

We open the first truck and they pull out the safes. Then start wandering around with them on their backs. I find the second truck for them.

Then they start removing the safes from the train, for some reason. I tell them to leave the safes in the train. They eventually do.

I go and get the C4 for them, then go and retrieve the truck when I find them trying to move the safes one at a time instead of waiting for the truck to come to them. I show them what to do.

I figure, hey, they're dumb, but we'll finish this. Then at the end all they had to do was get in the loving truck and they couldn't even do that. We failed out of the match because they wouldn't get into the loving truck. They just looked at it.

Now I remember why I stopped playing so many months ago!
