Got 3 new DW achievements last night (big thanks to Vox, Cheeto, Chairface & Shooting Blanks for the help), knocking my list down to only 10 more..

That is of course until Thursday when these launch. Thanks for the new heists, Overkill. :negative:

I can hardly wait to see what ridiculous hour-plus long frustrating endurance achievement is going to be in this.

To be fair, in PD1 that was just called "beat the heist on 145+" so we'll probably be safe from another [x] Miserable.

I wonder if people could buy the PD1 Wolf Pack for a dollar come next Steam sale and get this one for free. Someone have a good memory and let me know about that, great, thanks.

now bear in mind I said I had the 'easy' job ... of being that counter-sniper/lap runner. This is compared to the guys standing in a bathtub killing 800 specials and SWATs before it was easy to do. So "easy" is something of a, uh, misleading claim...

Yeah, I don't think there was an easy job there. I'm just glad that bathtub was cloaker-proof, and that the Bronco owned so much.

Force load it and see if it breaks things. Most of the time Goonmod will play nice, it's pretty rare for a patch to actually break it.

I really hope the new launcher is a China Lake. A middle ground between the GL40's one shot at a time and the MGL-140's depressingly slow reload would be so good. Also, pump action grenade launcher. Just say those words and you'll understand.

Clearly it'll be some OP as gently caress magazine fed monstrosity if we follow the pattern of power creep.

because you haven't been conditioned to buy all the Payday DLC you possibly can, and look where it got you. It got you hosed out of SEVEN WHOLE DOLLARS. I hope you'll wash your shame away by buying both Wolf Packs at full price and sending an honest, heartfelt apology to Overkill for not opening your wallet the way they clearly deserve.

e: in seriousness you should get Wolf Pack if you want to play Payday 1 at all ever. And you should want to play PD1 because it's interesting and different even with the maps ported to Payday 2.

UnknownMercenary posted:

I sure hope so. Also it "should" (as in shouldn't, but whatever) be a secondary so I can take a GL40 and a new GL and be nothing but Explosionman.

The GL/RPG is a tried, true, and tested Optimal Loadout In All Ways but sometimes you just want to mix it up.

My strongest advice is to focus on getting the very hard and hard difficulty masks when there's a content lull. Getting those lower masks only becomes more of a chore the longer you wait.

wait what? I thought it was $5 and it was kind of a hidden discount for all PDTH owners so only the newbies get soaked for $7 and old players get a $5 DLC if they're smart

well that tosses my theory out the window.

Nope, it's free for old players who already own it for PD1. And people are, predictably, pissed about this.

I haven't played PD2 seriously for a while (though I have kept mostly up to date). Have there been any discussions about skills rebalances again? I feel like we've had the same dead skills in the same dead trees forever now.

That said I will probably still buy the Wolf Pack.

I phrased that badly. What I meant was, I thought PD1's Wolfpack was $5 so if you owned PD1 already, you could get in on New Wolfpack for $5 instead of $7.

but since PD1 Wolfpack is $10 my theory is destroyed

You should know the answer to this already, especially since a couple of shotguns have (had? I haven't been keeping up) custom stats for the ammo types (though they only change pick up rate). :colbert:

Clearly what you should be saying is either "They made a DLC of a DLC they made for The Heist?!?!" or switching between its their fault that you didn't buy up wolf pack back when The Heist was free for a day and "See OVERGREED, this wasn't so hard was it? ;)".

It works poorly.

As for guns, overkill and below pretty much bring what ever you want. There are still some poo poo tier guns, but rolling with random guns will work.
