ArkInBlack posted:I too enjoy using a gun with worse ammo pick up than an RPG-7. It's just fun as gently caress to use. Accuracy never feels like a problem to me. Again, console so I don't know if that has anything to do with it. I've been used to these controls since 2013 or whenever it first came out. I'm used to the sluggish controller aiming. Also I am pumping the breaks on that 1D comment up there. Shoulda been DW. The G3 full auto reminds me of the Eagle but way more visceral. I will always have a soft spot for JP and Falcon as well. I've posted this before but some reason I have like no success with shottys and pistols in this game. I like the rifle and smg gameplay though.

So, Swims, you console guys got the 1 Down update right? Did they give you the full, framerate killing brunt of it or did they tone it down somewhat?

1D is pretty heavy. I don't know what the benchmark is for PC variation in cops. I play with a dude who plays PC too so I'll check with him. It's not uncommon for what feels like 3 or 4 bullies and 5 or 6 Sheilds and a handful of tazers plus zeal cops all at the same time. If that gauges it? Diamond museum can get loving nuts and I think I counted 8 snipers on Dockyard last time I played it. In general I prefer DW. But I have so many hours and max level that every room I join the host usually forces a 1D mission and thinks I will carry and we inevitably get smashed. One of my buddies is almost strictly 1D but he's probably one of the top guys I've played with ever in the life of this game. I also still occasionally host OVK nightclubs and blown rats cause I still love those jobs. Especially if I have new guys in the lobby. Many console guys are very loving smug and balk at OVK jobs but gently caress those guys. There's very little stutter in what's commonly complained as an unoptimized game- by console players themselves. I have very few dsync issues and the lag is usually very minimal, if at all. My only gripe is crimenet does not exist. LFG helps and I still got 5 or 6 guys that regularly play though.

I don't have word of god, but I believe the same changes in max cop numbers that occur on PC also occur on console.

Help me refine my hickok45 build. PRIMARY: Repeater 1874 for standard hickok45 videos; the cowboy long arms he reviews are sick nasty and are probably his favorite in general with 400 grain slugs SECONDARY: The stryk/glock17, for team glock and the fun switch MELEE: Anything really for pumpkin killing methods. Preferably survival tomahawk THROWABLE: Any of the non explosive throwables, preferably the axes for more pumpkin killing methods PERK DECK: poo poo I don't know. Sociopath/maniac for laughing whenever he shoots a target? Grinder for getting wet from 2-liters and drinking the high fructose corn syrup for health? Infiltrator for even more pumpkin killing methods? ARMOR: Again, I don't know. Suit because he doesn't wear armor? EQUIPMENT: Ammobag for Bud's gun shop sponsoring. MASK: Groucho glasses for facial hair PERK TREE: Whole lotta melee perks to make use of the pumpkin killing methods, probably skills in the rifleman tree for the long range compound shots and techforcer skills for the glock, inspire and revenant perks because life is good. HEIST: Must be played only on the bomb forest or the train heist for woods walks and the compound. Bulldozers are the gong, medics are the red plate, cloakers are bowling pins, tasers are the cowboys, and shields are various animals further back. Normal cops are the 2-liters I did this with some pubs and got them all in a good mood sitting on a cliff and taking potshots at cops together via a shooting range, it was beautiful

No real news since the Crime Spree revamp and no major gameplay additions since Sangres was added. Overkill is likely ramping up for this year's "how can we gently caress up the game this time?" event.

Overkill have been on holiday for the last two weeks, so they're all refreshed and set to ruin everything anew. Prior to that was the desync fix beta testing/implementation. It went extremely well maswastaken fucked around with this message at 00:18 on Aug 1, 2017 |

Oh boy desync chat, an excuse to post my own video The funny part is that it worked better in the open beta than it did when the update went live (and that's after you count disabling all possible mods that would interfere).

They might nerf Crime Spree. Some people are pointing out - not unreasonably - that the current system has the potential to create a shitload of crappy high-level players.

Ah yes, the true problem in Payday: power leveling.

Crime Spree has the potential to make the problem much worse because it appeared at the same time that the Ultimate Edition added a large number of new players.

Sarcasm aside, that's not even in the top ten (or even top twenty) things that need to be looked at/fixed right now. Even if some newbie gets dragged to the cap without firing a shot, so what? Everything past infamy 5 is mechanically empty, and this isn't a MMO. There's no level scaling so that being XXV-100 makes you do more damage to cops or something.

There's no level scaling so that being XXV-100 makes you do more damage to cops or something. Overkill has not been great at prioritizing fixes. Also, this issue makes the pubstove ever hotter. Not that I really care, I mean I've had this game for 4 years and played it for 2k+ hours so lovely players are very much par for the course for me, but just putting it out there that people are raising it as a problem so Overkill might do some more loving around with Crime Spree. Personally I would just like to see Crime Spree making more sense, eg not offering Yacht Heist or Car Shop as an option when you already have the modifier that allows you to answer 0 pagers.

"Not prioritizing fixes" is a bad way of putting it since it's a lot easier to change things that work as intended but not well than it is to figure out why something isn't working and then fixing it.

Why making iterative balance changes when we can put it in a single patch once a year and then let the game fester and die while we squeeze the remaining playerbase to death with DLC?

There's not any more paid DLC, aside from the H3H3 folks. C'mon, Merc, you're better than this. The hip new thing is to complain about One Down and safe drop ratios.

They gave 5 million definite human beings a copy of Payday 2 so it's all about getting them to make a $45 one-off payment, while relying on them to drive skin prices so far into the ground that the nature of rounding ensures they get a 33% cut of all sales.
