Waiter, this band keeps shooting pearls at me.
I don't know if pc has it but a cool feature on Xbox is the LFG thing. There's usually about 30 of them going at any time and most of them are pretty chill players. You get a lot of Hoxton, overdrill and Santa 100+ bag games, but they are titled so easily avoidable. Most of the time you join the voice chat before the actual lobby so it is easy to tell if it's a lame crew or not within seconds and it's good to know if guys are using mics as well.

A surprising amount of players have stuck with this game since x360 version and are pretty good players to have around.

I have yet to finish a golden grin. Like, it just doesn't seem fun.

With all the new jobs added I still hold the legacy jobs closest to the heart. Literally played vanilla + transport only for like 2+ years.

Basically all LMGs, shotguns, SMGs, -and grenade launchers. The flamethrower is also really good.

Ace Body Expertise and Low Blow, then grab the Mac-10 or Micro Uzi as a secondary. They make amazing close range bullet hoses and are fun as hell to use.

Alternatively, crit flamethrower with Bronco secondary is still very much a thing and also incredibly fun.

Alternatively alternatively, you can bring GL40 + China Puff/Arbiter and proceed to be useless vs snipers, cloakers and dozers but phenomenal against everything else.

Anyone know how to hack in continental coins? I was playing the taxman mission and he bugged out. I couldn't get him to give up the password or knock him out. The dude was just comatose. I need 111 coins to restart the heist but I have 10 and I'm not defending my safe house 20 times.

drat near every gun is, if not good, good enough that somebody's gonna pop up and say it's useful/fun for them.

Personal favorites:
- JP36, while an AR, has basically infinity bullets, reloads instantly and is rock-stable. Wave vaguely at head level or use Body Expertise and you're golden.
- Micro Uzi is a stunningly fast bullet hose that also has nearly infinite ammo, fires fast enough to disintegrate dozers, has nearly zero recoil and is easily concealable to boot.
- You like the AK 762, so I suggest the Krinkov. It's the 762 - but in SMG form. Like no, literally, it's the 762 in your secondary slot almost exactly.
- Most shotguns are good. Lately I've been running either the Flechette Raven/HE Judge combo for concealment or a 000 Steakout/DB Goliath setup.
- My standby for endurance runs is still the KSP/Arbiter - both will go for a long time off just raw ammo pickups, provide accuracy, deep magazines and flexibility.
- GL40 is basically the ideal for a high conceal build - you can make it tiny, but it's still an extremely high damaging area effect weapon.

Though not optimal, the Ishmael and loco make for fun guns. I also enjoy the Arbiter on high difficulties.

There's a guide on the discord. Alternately, join my spree and never want for coins again

Restarting the Crime Spree at max level costs about two thirds what it does to continue it at the same stage and you get to claim the rewards before doing so.

Check my post history but I've been hyping Mac 10 since vanilla Payday before the ammo buff. Pound for pound it's been my favorite gun in this game. I used the JP heavily before Big Score.

Falcon once single fire mod was available. But then I went back and maxed a full auto falcon.

Now I will stand by G3- single or full auto. DMR though.

I don't have a lot of success with shottys or pistols in this game for some reason.

May 6, 2012

For me, all of the guns are good in some way. It just depends on what I'm into. If I want to pop helmets one at a time, then I go for DMRs like the M308 and SCAR. If I just want a bullet hose that fires all day, then something like an LMG or the JP36. It kind of goes on like that.

Even if the autos are the best ones statistically, I just can't help but love the mosconi. The only things in the same ballbark for me are the GL40 and flame thrower. Brenner comes close as well.

According to my weapons page the mosin is inferior to every stat compared to my l93 barring reload speed by 0.6 of a second.

This subconsciously deters me from popping heads using milsurp russian guns :smith:

The IZHMA is good. Yes, especially on a Dodge Grinder build.

I never did get an answer. Maybe should ask Discord though. HE Judge or 5/7 for that? I tried the 5/7, but I like the utility of the Judge. Especially for Swan Song use in a pinch.

I'd go with the 5/7, personally. Two reasons: anti-sniping (which a DB shotgun CAN do but depending on map it may or may not be effective) and if you've only got DB and HE shotguns you're gonna get dozer-hosed at some point since you can't effectively crit the face.

I definitely think the 5/7 has a bit more utility. It packs a mean punch, can pierce shields, can take out snipers, and can spray down a group in a pinch. It's been the ideal sidearm for me.

The only thing the Judge has over the 5/7 is working/procing Overkill, but being able to accurately pick off snipers is worth more imo

The 5/7 also has that sweet rear end floral print skin which puts it miles above the judge in my humble opinion.

I prefer the Judge skins better to hawaiian shirt gun but tastes are subjective and all.

If the 5/7 had good ammo stats it would be quite a bit better than most other pistols, which it already is in many aspects. It's definitely not as great if it's gonna see constant use, but it really shines if you're using it strictly as a secondary to pop shields, snipers, and other niche cases, or as a backup once your primary runs out to help you hold out a little longer until you need to pick up ammo. Ammo conservation is key to getting the most out of it.

You can also use it like a second primary if you're running ammo bags since you can consistently refill it without relying on the abysmal ammo pickup rate, but that goes without saying.

Yeah, I like the Splinter skin on the Judge. But those are fair points, I use either one strictly for Dozers or emergencies. Sniper duty makes sense, I'll look into getting a 5/7 for accuracy.
