Don't play lovely hosed up difficulties, is maybe the advice I should have given then.

It's going to feel like a badge of honor(?) When Overkill finally does something about 1D and most of us have completed all of it pre-change.

What ArkInBlack said. Overkill will argue that you have the option of bringing tools (Explosives, Saw, or lockpicking skills + Burglar perk deck) to help with that situation :overkill: No matter that you were on OD with only one other human.


I agree with you

Well after the successful completion of the heist I looked upon it with greater equanimity. Even OD is fairly easy these days so I suppose it is a good thing when the game gives me a challenge every now and then, however that occurs. I did also manage to defeat 47 policemen and a clutch of specials (according to Wolfhud) on the hardest artificial difficulty in the game, on my last down with 2 bots so there was a sense of achievement.

Except OD Goat Simulator. I will never play that again.

You're not going into those heists blind. If you're not preparing it's on you.

Highlights Include

The streamer (whom I'm not sure whom that was)...
Not Sprinting
Not using Iron Sights
Not aiming for the head
Taking basic Confident for a single Joker build
Taking THREE TIMES TO FIGURE OUT WHICH COMPUTER TO HACK ON BIG BANK
Taking 30 minutes on said Big Bank while cracking no safe deposit boxes
Willingly picking C4 Escape

And after that I suffered an aneurysm.

Not using irons/not aiming for head would really depend on the build and the gun. No sprinting is just bizarre though.

C4 escape is hilarious sniper hell & I will miss it when snipers can no longer kill everyone on the team before they're even fully spawned.

This does not make sense when, again, aggregate indicia also indicate improvements. The belief that things are worse is false. It remains false.

There's a reported crash with using kickstarter on the lamppost cutter objective, day 1 of goat heist.

It seems random. CTDd three times within the first five minutes of Safehouse Raid before I got fed up and decided to try something else, and once after ~20 minutes of Panic Room. It was all offline. I interacted with enough stuff in Panic Room that I couldn't begin to guess at what caused it.

In the root payday 2 directory there are crashlogs. Should probably check there.

Hit Win + R, enter "%localappdata%/payday 2" (without quotes), open crash.txt in something other than notepad, copy and paste. Ideally here too: http://steamcommunity.com/app/218620/discussions/14/

I'm getting random ones, usually when returning to lobby after a heist, but a couple times mid-heist as well. Might be BLT or Wolfhud related.

Hi goons, some friends of mine decided to get this when it went free so I've returned to it after a long absence. When I left hoxhud was The Thing because it let you do stuff like not have to hold a button to interact and had drill timers, but i guess that dude went off the deep end or something? and the link to goon mod says it's no longer supported. Is there a quick/easy list of QoL stuff and maybe a rundown of what guns/skills are decent now/should I be aiming for. I've no idea if my CAR or locomotive are still preferable to other options.

Thank you both. Looks like pocohud causing errors attempting to compare strings. Disabling pocohud seems to have fixed things, but I feel like I'm playing blind.

Sounds like the old Dragon's Breath on a medic bug. There is a way to fix that:

Some guy on the Steam forums posted:

Open Hud3.lua, find line 153:
code:
function TPocoHud3:AddDmgPop(sender,hitPos,unit,offset,damage,death,head,dmgType)
Insert this after it as a new line:
code:
if type(damage) == "string" then return end

the hud mods are kinda like that catalog of prosthetic penises from that one episode of rick & morty

if u want to keep ur natural penis that's fine but i think u should say, out loud, "I PREFER TO KEEP MY PENIS"

Bear in mind that the current beta is likely to break virtually every mod out there.

The only problem with doing a Baby Run heist is, well, it'd be like making one about Drive. It'd need to involve a lot of tearing rear end in a car. Or maybe we'll do the work and need to follow a plan Spacey gives us while the driver's Baby or someone he hand picked because gently caress Bain, let's have some actual intelligence into a plan for once.
