I just thought I'd mention that a post entitled "Fuck you Overkill" has in 6 hours become the 2nd highest upvoted post of all time on this subreddit. I'd imagine it should take the top spot within another hour or two.

That is what your community thinks of you, Overkill. I don't think I've ever seen a post entitled "Fuck you <Developer>" reach the highest upvoted post on a game's subreddit.

Edit: in about 10 minutes the gap has gone from 125 to 75 upvotes or so. Should overrtake it in another 15-20 minutes at this rate.

Tobax · 18時間前

So I bought the game, bought all the DLC they kept rolling out, bought the optional extra to support the game during hype train so that we'd all get something for free... and now get told I have to buy "drills" to unlock the micro transaction safes to get "cosmetics" which insanely also gives stat bonuses... yeah thanks a lot.

rootwyrm · 16時間前

You better be listening /u/OVERKILL_Almir - because all this is doing is pissing away what little goodwill you had left after more than $100 in DLC. Now you're pulling a 180 on the dozens of times you promised no microtransactions and no pay to win? By doing exactly that for CRIMEFEST?

The only crimefest I see is the way PD2 development has gone. We still can't get working fucking netcode, we can't get fixes for guards that see through 4 walls 2 miles away, but HEY! We can give you models for free AND you'll charge them for us? I already fucking gave you $200.

All you're doing is guaranteeing the people who made this game and community what it is, will have NOTHING to do with Overkill or PD2 in the future. I was going to buy all three DLCs I'm missing this weekend. Now? Most emphatically, fuck you if you think you're getting another penny out of me.

I'm going to see the metal band Overkill tonight, saw this on my /r/all with no context, and was very confused. I thought I had bought a ticket to support some douchebags who hate their fans or something. I've never played Payday but this sucks for you guys, I hate when game companies let greed take priority over what makes a game great.

Dear Overkill;

Please stop ruining the game i love.

I'd really appreciate that.

At this point it's basically "Ok" if you were to stop pushing updates for the game, i'd be totally fine with that.

Just don't burn it into the ground anymore.

Thank you;

Kind regards;

-Fucking everyone~.

Iberius_Huskus · 18時間前

Honestly, I have a feeling that this is going to turn out like the whole paid modding fiasco a few months back. With this much outrage, things are probably not going to stay the way they currently are. What will probably happen is that the crate system will stay, but the stat boosts will go.

I'm just going to wait until OVK makes an announcement.

Since this is a copy paste of the CSGO model with in heist weapon inspection and all, I think the safes are a joke, it's just too tit for tat to be real

SinisterPixel · 14時間前

Almir, if you're reading this (which I imagine you aren't). I stand by what I said in that tweet, the tweet that you made a point to respond to claiming that I don't support your independance.

Just sell the rights to the Payday franchise to a company that gives a damn. You'll get a big cash injection and a better company can lay your polished turd to waste and start from scratch. I'd honestly buy a Payday 3 if it was made by a decent company, like Tripwire.

You squandered any trust I had in you as a developer after Dragan. Your game is a buggy mess and is barely playable in it's current state. Instead of addressing these issues you continue to overload your game with DLC on a monthly basis. I mean, Jesus Christ, the Diesel engine wasn't designed with this much content in mind. But you won't pause development to port the game onto a new engine, or address these bugs, because then you wouldn't be able to sell us the Gage Surgeon's Pack (FEATURING A SCALPEL AS A MELEE WEAPON BECAUSE WE'VE GIVEN UP MAKING MELEE VIABLE AND BALANCED SO FUCK IT HAVE A FUCKING WALKING STICK).

You constantly break promises, or delay them for over a year only to deliver something that was likely developed in a matter of weeks. You have no regard for balancing your games and constantly put players without DLC at a disadvantage...

And if that doesn't make it blatant enough that this game is a pay to win, you added skins, and had them modify the stats of weapons. Skinned weapons are undenyably better than non skinned ones. The reason CS:GO can pull of weapon skins is because they're purely cosmetic and don't upset the balance of gameplay for users who choose not to buy them. The reason TF2 can pull off reskins is because of the previously mentioned reasons and that the game is free. Also both of those games had established trading economies before they introduced reskins.

Payday 2 doesn't have an established trading system, and you've butchered the simple process of making a copy of something you already knew worked. Like seriously. I used to copy things in school. You've failed to do what I and any other person was capable of doing at age 10.

Kingspycrab · 16時間前

Sup. To let you guys know, we're not PR, we're players who(and I'm just speaking about myself here) are upset. We are removing threads because it causes clutter and it makes the sub look shitty with similar posts. This is why we have the megathread. OVK does read our posts, and the megathread is where they will look first, I gather.

Now, onto my humble opinion:

First off, I am very upset. First day and you're copying and pasting CS:GO's EXACT MODEL of weapon skins down to the DOLLAR.

I am beyond upset by this move.

Second, you went back on your word, promising NO micro-transactions. EVER. Also, free content for Crimefest and you say PAID skins? Tsk-tsk.

tl;dr we love y'all and aren't censoring but keeping shit clean. Also, OVK has messed up royally.

ChiefChecker · 17時間前

I suggest that we go on to the Steam Site of Payday and write or modify our Reviews. That way has shown effective in the discussion of "Skyrim paid mods" and it will probably be the same in this case.

Vmoch · 16時間前

I can't even find words how retarded OVERKILL actually is. Or whoever thought about making this.

OVERKILL was always balancing on the blade of the knife but this time... man.. How hard you have fallen..

We eventually settled with all of the DLC's and it's power creep. "150+ euro in dlc's, well FOR 5EUR I CAN GET A MEAL IN FASTFOOD WHY NOT BUY A DLC?! AMIRITE?".. Most of us got over the fact that this game is oversaturated with paid content..

Infamy 2.0. The update that was nothing more than a pile of shit. Let's face it. It WAS NOT WHAT WE WERE PROMISED. OVK said they will fix it, eventually... OK. We get it. It's hard. Take your time..

Hype Train. ..... We got over it too. It was a dark time. But we managed to live through it.

Twitter challenges. Passive agressive "OK DON'T WANNA SUPPORT VOICE ACTORS HMMM? OKOKOK YOU UNSUPPORTIVE FAGGOTS". You removed it. We liked it. Even if it sounded a little bit mean.

Skins. For money. I-I just.. You win OVERKILL, you took a lot of my money. You abused my love for this game, even though it is so flawed in many ways. And now you give me this. I know it's optional.. But it's just a kick in the nuts. YOU AMAZED ME. YOU ARE NOT VALVE. YOU CAN'T SELL COSMETICS FOR MONEY. WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?

YOU HAVE A SLOPPY REPUTATION AND NOT THAT GREAT OF A FANBASE AND YET YOU REALLY THOUGHT THAT PAID SKINS WOULD BE A GREAT IDEA????

Yeah, we shouldn't have completed the last challenge. But who am I kidding, you would have still released it you stupid fucks.

dankcatnip · 18時間前

There is no middle ground with these skins, I can see it now. " That +15% reload skin finally makes my peacemaker deathwish viable, I REALLY WANT IT so I'll buy it off the market for (x) dollars..."

Pathetic that Overkill would take advantage of the community like that. 'I actually like and want to use this stylish gun, so I'll buy a skin so it is actually worth using." is the mentality Overkill wants to take advantage of.

Charlie905 · 19時間前

Arono1290 · 18時間前

People are honestly surprised?

The first game was excellent, a true gem on Steam when it first came out.

The second game started off already worse than the first game. A terrible matchmaking system, far too easy, an overemphasis on stealth, and unsatisfying campaigns.

And then they started rolling out the DLC. $5 here, $2 there. The amount of DLC for this game is atrocious and unacceptable. Does it go on sale every so often? Sure, but without a sale.. it's a steep ripoff. I pre-ordered this game on good faith and I never should have done that.

Now it's trying to milk the fanbase even harder. Did everyone here forget about John Wick, the king of product placement? This game stunk of wanting to milk the fanbase early on, it's literally unsurprising they went full CS:GO on this.

DrEpicOni · 15時間前

You know, at first I thought: "you know what? People are being really dramatic about this kind of thing." I mean, it's purely cosmetic and really is down to the whole "don't like it? Don't buy it" thing. My logic was: At least it won't give anyone an upper hand.

Then I scrolled down to the bottom of the page. Skins apparently give guns stat boosts and the like. What the fuck is that all about? We're legit getting more "pay2win" than we already were?

Look, I won't mind if keys can be bought with offshore cash or a new type of in-game currency, but that's not how it's looking...

Fuck sake overkill, what're you doing?

This is Overkill's business model now, I see no reason why it would change. But of course, we'll forget about this in 2 months, so who cares.

ShadowzI · 8時間前

You promised a weapon balance...

We got a universal nerf, buffs to pistols?!?! and nerfs to shotgun mechanics (why the heck is a pistol now more lethal than a shotgun?) and you ignore the power creep with dlc mods and weapons yet again...

Not only that but the biggest slap to the face was the terrible nerf to the assault rifle class regarding weapon spread and accuracy that can be fixed with SKINS THAT BOOST THE STATS BACK TO NORMAL (or better).

That just screams scumbag move!

WHY couldn't you do a proper weapon balance and then release skins as PURELY cosmetic upgrade... I know you don't want to release skins as a dlc because microtransaction are more profitable but did you have to borderline start breaking the game? What about the skins that require DLC (which them themselves are an blatantly obvious issue of power creep where the previous weapon become obsolete or unviable due to an update) to use... I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO PROBLEM WITH A COMPANY TRYING TO MAKE A PROFIT but when you do so while pissing over your customer and fans and exploiting them with OBVIOUS incentives that changes the game that's when I have a problem.

How to fix this.

Step 1: Grab the DeLorean

Step 2: Go back in time and convince the people to NOT to complete the road to crimefest challenge attached to it.

WTF is this shit. Were they seriously NOT going to add a way to make even more money if we ended up not reaching the goal for that specific challenge? This isn't even something you could've released as paid DLC have we not reached the goal? Were they going to charge us for the freaking safes too? I don't fucking get it, this is going to kill one of my favorite games ever...

People on this subreddit were so damn agressive towards anyone who showed skepticism towards this Crimefest. Even mentioning that they might add paid dlc would get you downvoted and people would defend Overkill's DLC policies.

Now Overkill has done something completely unexcusable and I'm glad that the community is together against it. Honestly gonna consider quitting this game for good unless the other days make up for this.

i have a grand total of 1191 hours logged, just on pc and not including console. i've bought almost all of the dlc, minus only the CO pack, the character packs after clover, and the alesso heist because alesso sucks.

i'm not spending another dime on your game. i will probably log in one more time near the end of crimefest to see if you have completely wrecked the game further with more bullshit pay to win "free" content, and then uninstall forever.

seriously, fuck you pal.

My friend and I decided to play this game after a half year hiatus. We played through one bank heist and came up upon the card selection screen. We picked our cards, and something we've never seen before shows up on the card. SFX goes off and after a few seconds I see the word "Safe" on both our cards. I said "I fucking hate this game." and we stopped playing

As a TF2 player I didn't understand why this subreddit exploded, since I was like "Duh,we got skins in TF2 some months ago and they didn't destroy our game!"

Then I realized 3 things:

1)The skins were better than the normal weps (Slightly, but better)

2)The publishers said that they wouldn't add microtransactions

3) They basically put P2W mechanics in a P2P game.

Sorry for ya folks, hope that the devs realize that they fucked up.
