The longer Payday 2's update life goes, the more convinced I am that I have a better experience just reading this thread than I would playing the game again. Jules's update style feels nearly antagonistic.

E: literally just realized how much this change will ruin my silenced shotgun dodge build, yeah, RIP my heisting days, wake me up when there's more lore

I am excited for the Switch version. Not because I'll buy it (not that dumb), but to see in what new and exciting ways it can be broken.

I haven't played Payday 2 since before Locke betrayed us except maybe not?, and this is my entire relationship to following this thread at this point.

e: well that and the possibility of more eric etebari content

I'm gonna say 'the same flaw as skulldozers two+ loving years ago' really is more appropriate for this.

e: also lol I just remembered how loving silly the sightlines are on Bomb: Dockyard and am now imagining minigun dozers shredding you across the starting warehouses

There have been only two periods when specific heists had passable difficulty: Boiling Point for about 48 hours, and Rats day 2 for about a month. All other aspects of payday 2 have always been terrible.

The best period of Payday difficulty was when suit grinder was king and I could massacre an entire DW Big Bank after all my pub pals wiped.

The other period was when they did something similar with the Cobras and they all had a fire rate of ~20,000 shots per second.

I no lie miss the days when Rats 2 was a death run through trenches with gang members raining deadly mac-10 fire from above.

Lots of evidence, sure.

One of the laziest writing tricks is to make a ton of noise and then make sense of it later so that it looks planned, also known as "the Lost method." I won't argue that there have been a ton of little hints but many of them also turned out to be meaningless and I'll believe it was "meticulous" when I see it, is all.

serialized plots can be both planned and improvised at the same time, no one is saying Overkill has a master document with 'and then immortal Gus Fring arrives for crimedad's checkup', we all remember when bonnie was clover, but there's been a thread of weird alchemy bullshit since the pdf guide I paid extra on my pre-order to have, and I'm honestly way happier with illuminati bullshit than the 'quick, add lead, no wait, I mean quicksilver' philosopher's stone poo poo we most likely had coming back then

Dear thread: Please post your payday-themed mixed drink recipes

I strongly suspect we're going to be getting more of them and I want to hand some to the devs in the spirit of the event.

The Stove
1 part Caustic Soda
1 part Hydrogen Chloride

He's also a guy who has actually seen the Payday gang kill hundreds of heavily armed law enforcers in multiple heists at his behest. He probably also knows that the gang defeated literal demons to get to the Ark in the first place, which makes his decision to monologue in front of them all the sillier. Unless he was somehow unaware of his own mortality to common weapons, which is also dumb after they spent so much time building him up as this near-godlike being.

It's not that hard to believe he was put on his back foot when kidnapping Bain actually made our pursuit of the Ark et al more aggressive instead of just ending it. He shows up in person because he needs to use the Ark to become President before we do, and we've forced his hand by being there ourselves. It's not a great move but it's that or just let someone else cashes in his potentially centuries long scheme.

The Jiro trailer might as well have been from a different story, since apparently he also managed to return to Japan and kill all his Yakuza enemies after the White House job when wrapping up killing them all was what led him to come to the US in the first place.
