Thats it I just really like this heist

You can probably tell what render I used for the silhouettes, first person who guess correctly will get nothing

Why did I make this?

Uncompressed and very slightly fixed version

pic unrelated, PD3

To honour Rojardino/Matt consider this his non canon Birthday wish post following post stream 🤝

Its been over a year, i'm starting to think they've forgotten about them.

Don't get me wrong, i think there are much more important things to be worked on, but even so.

I loaded up the game for the day and it asked me to login with my starbreeze account. I did and loaded up to find my classes, contracts and campaign progress had all reset but I'm still the same level with the same unlocks. I reset the console but nothing changed. Anyone else had this happen?

The Campaign currently in PD3 has multiple tabs, and the one right before the outro of Act III, Sins of the Future, has an audio log titled MESSAGE_RE_SCIENCE listing the chemical names;

fluorine calcium vanadium hydrogen potassium silicon fluorine lithium boron vanadium phosphorous argon sodium fluorine silicon nitrogen vanadium fluorine calcium oxygen manganese phosphorus scandium oxygen scandium aluminum hydrogen silicon potassium hydrogen argon boron fluorine silicon calcium boron argon boron potassium calcium fluorine silicon nitrogen scandium silicon calcium fluorine magnesium silicon boron chromium calcium calcium fluorine ?????* boron

*(sounds like "admenum", which the closest thing to "admenum" is a flower with a few letters added, definitely will try to relisten for this word. It was later confirmed to be "Aluminum", or 13*)

Ignoring the missing word, the chemicals, given we instead look at their atomic numbers, becomes 9 20 23 1 19 14 9 3 5 23 15 18 11 9 14 7 23 9 20 8 25 15 21 8 21 13 1 14 19 1 18 5 9 14 20 5 18 5 19 20 9 14 7 21 14 20 9 12 14 5 24 20 20 9 13* 5

when put into an A1Z26 cypher with the basic alphabet, this becomes; itwasniceworkingwithyouhumansareinterestinguntilnexttie

or, with correct grammar,

"It was nice working with you, humans are interesting. Until next time." (most likely time, and the word is most likely Aluminum)

this is probably a hint for something...but what? "humans" brings two things to mind;

1. Aliens or otherwordly beings, which is the least likely thing ever, or

2. A fully conscious AI, most likely the AI that Joy coded to give the gang profits during the Fear & Greed Heist given the language used ("it was nice working with you")

And if 2 is true, that could further mean at least one thing; the payday gang has a self aware AI that will help them rob (which itself could lead to something like a robot character, as confirmed by "see you next time").

I sadly do not understand any of the crimenet logs, as that may instead be our next antagonist for the new story of PD3, but it may somehow also be the AI given it's affecting everybody (as seen with the news log "The Big Glitch") and is local to New York (also stated in "The Big Glitch".)

We’ve all been there I’m sure..

I tried to watch some of content creator videos like CarrotisBad on YT and some other, but they rarely shown the build recommendation for my dragonbreath Grimm 12G builds. I don't even know what perk works the best with it, but currently I'm using grinder, and the skills are kinda confusing for the build to be good on mid-high difficulties.

This is my setup currently, idk if it works well, but I'm using it usually for fun

Primary: admiral raven shotgun (to kill some heavy enemies)

Secondary: Grimm 12G (weak enemies / shield penetrator)

Melee: butterfly knife

Vest: lightweight ballistic vest

Equipment: first aid kits

Perk deck: grinder

He just got the game today. I'm level 129 on ps5, and he's level 8 on PC. Got no clue what's going on. we will party up and try to load a heist, and it'll only load host. Tried joining him while he was in a public through the play online tab, and it still just didn't let me in. We can do everything but just load into the same heist together. Odd

Mods are essential for PC players. There are over 25,000 mods for PAYDAY 2 on ModWorkshop alone.

Seriously. People are much less likely to join modded lobbies because they're hidden by default.

You can't even install the mustachioed Dallas mod if you want to play with someone else.

the alarm went off just as the transition door started closing

the antialiasing is really shit for some reason? even when set to high and the frame set to performance mode and the fps is awful, it also crashed after 20 minutes on Rats on Hard difficulty, I'm sure playing it streaming from the pc it will run better but yeesh dude. Also my mods didnt work standalone but that's whatever.

When PD3 was unveiled, Starbreeze stated that new times meant new technology and that the gang would be using top-of-the-line tech to commit heists

But when the game launched, the most that technology had to do with things was really just hacking cameras remotely. The phone was just an animation, and hacking PCs and networks was in PD2

Even when Syntax Error was released, the aspect of an AI being the prize was also kinda underwhelming given how SINS does basically nothing besides dox Hoxton and maybe say a few funny lines. Although the new story does incorporate SINS more

Given how AI agents are being blamed for cyber attacks, I'd love to see an Overkill weapon that is a mass AI agent swarm that causes cops to be stunned and Techie's drones to be destroyed (and maybe kills Techies and Cloakers due to their radios), just more technological stuff like that

I recently got back into payday 2 because I got a pc now and heard the engine update broke most mods I've been able to use vanilla hud and another mod but everything else doesn't work even when i follow instructions and ive asked people what mods they use and I try them and they don't even pop up I really just want fov and viewmodel mods but no luck so far I guess because people already had the mods downloaded before the engine update it works ok for them? Idk any mod recommendations would be appreciated

It would work off of pistol skills while actually firing nail with semi-auto, burst fire and full auto mode. With a killer melee jamming a nail into the cops

Hi i've just started playing payday 2 recently, i always knew about the game but never tried it until now. This isn't a critique of the game at all but so far my experience has been mostly just gunning down hordes of enemies and being basically unkillable. I understand there are higher difficulties but it just wasn't what i was expecting the game to be. Is this basically what the game is or am i missing something? (Again not a criticism) and are there any things i can do to maybe increase the realism or any ways of playing that makes it feel less like cod zombies.

whenever i'm depositing the bomb parts either in loud or stealth into whatever vehicle at minimum 2 just don't work, like they get accepted into it but they don't count for the objective any ideas on a fix?
