Seems like ECMs are kind of hosed up at the moment. If you've got all the upgrades, the ECM lasts for the whole 30s. But after ~15s, the ECM starts blinking. At 20s, the sound effect stops, and it looks like the ECM is off. But it's still working. You just can't see it.

Or my game's hosed and I'm the only one with that problem.

We don't need to have that dialogue because it's obvious, trivial, and has already been had a thousand times.
A word of warning to folks. I've decided to start reporting bugs that we've been using to to make the game easier, and the changes to bug reporting mean they're probably actually going to get fixed. Examples include repairing the drill/picking up gold thru the van on Slaughterhouse, blue SWAT spawns on same (which may actually make it easier) and the bugged delayed police response on HM day 1. Someone else already spilled the beans on immobilizing guards on BB.

They're never gonna find out about the crate trick, though. I'm carrying that one to my grave.

I like that one dude who Vox quoted who said OVK could implement drum mags but chose not to for some reason. It's not that the reason why they don't have them as mods is because the engine can't give weapons different animations based on what mods they have, no. They had those finished assets just waiting for the proper time to monetize them.

I never thought of that- that makes a ton of sense! I assumed it was a balance problem.

Have you not been checking the patch notes since crimefest? Those are all from reported bugs-many from things I've reported. The bug reporting subforum on steam has gotten a extensive makeover, with dedicated community mods and Tobias from overkill logging every report within 24 hours.

Nah, they made the quadstacked mags as a way of having something with the stats of the big mags but without the arms clipping through them. The reason why the AA12 has a drum mag is because it always uses the animations of the drum which looks kinda goofy on the box mag but still make sense.

Maybe Sydney will finally bring some new music to my Soundtrack :v:

Gotta say, she looks totally like a punk that got to join the group and at the very end of the meet and greet Dallas said "oh and one more thing, we at least try to look professional, see if you can squeeze into a suit" and she's rocking it. I really dig the combat boots and tats too, can't wait for someone to datamine her voicelines.

Dude, ouch. Some comparisons go too far. I give the thread magnificent content.


Speaking of which, Eddie Ecklund, aka Coyotemation, is one of the lead animators for trailer and promotional videos for Payday. He's posted a ton of photos from the event in Austin that OVerkill is attending. The competitive Payday 2 thing is happening there too.

Some highlights:





He also went to a Weird Al concert earlier if you're into that sort of thing.

If anything, the bad moments are fleeting. It's the only thread I regularly check on in Games these days, and not just to make sure the OP keeps up with current information. I just like how it's managed to avoid the GBS/Imp Zone invasion of Games with thread strafing, memes, and the layers of irony that make anyone afraid to admit they're enjoying the game. I'll take a gigantic Vox post that I can choose to read or ignore than someone shouting down the posting with "haha look at all those words you human being I call this game Retard TOoo."

Not only is it hilarious when these situations happens, it puts iron man ace to shame. The PD2 shield stumble animation where they get knocked down is so terrible in comparison I regretted trying out iron man ace in the first place within seconds. :cripes:

I expect the shield bash to leave the shield wide open to attack so the skill is worth using, not completely vindicate spending leftover points in a ICTV build on anything but iron man ace. The variation in the PD2 animations isn't helpful; bashing in R6S leaves the shield user vulnerable to headshots from the front and behind because it knocks the shield away from their body. The mechanic is the same between both games but it only works consistently in one of them.

It used to, actually, there was only one shield stumble animation and it left the shield wide open to a follow up attack. This was changed with many less vulnerable animations because :tootzzz:

I think it works at it's best when you don't have any anti-shield weapons and they are stacked in a narrow corridor or doorway.
Might also be good for people who don't want to run around shields to get those achievements for weapon specific melee kills on shields.
Though IM aced lets you sprint and shoot. That's great fun with a flamethrower in maps like diamond/hotline miami where you have such tight corridors to run around in.
