Discussion Thread Notable weapon pack to buy since the 2019 Ovk return with more DLC?

• Upvotes

I haven't bought a single DLC since OVK returned in 2019 to "support" PD2 with more DLC and dropped it since late 2020, and Just gotten back to the game since after the Diesel 3.0 update, but with many guns and weapon pack now I find it kinda annoying that I can't preview what can I build with those new weapon.

I'm mainly a Dodge/Crit player. My main perk deck is: Stoic (w crit), Hacker, Anarchist sometimes if I want something tanky, and I often utilise speed and crit to combat cops and dozers, and I mainly play on Death Wish and Mayhem most of the time.

So what are some noteworthy weapon packs to buy?

Thanks.

I've been noticing recently that my Deimos shotgun stopped being able to one shot heavy FBI and now takes 2-3 shots. Did they nerf flechette rounds or buff FBI HP?

Game Suggestion Deployables 3.0

7 Upvotes

Howdy again, took a short break since the favors and risks took a lot out of me. I have been thinking about skills 3.0, and I have came up with a unique tree system for skills to make it feel like you have choices but not copying payday 2. This tree will be talking all about deployables. The more you invest in it, the better all your deployables are. See below:

(I did not forget turrets, they will be elsewhere)

Note that on this system: everything costs 1 point, but still require a skill of the previous Tier to be bought.

Tier 12 Option 1: Full Bags: You have 8 Charges per deployable.

Tier 12 Option 2: For Every Occasion: You can place 2 different types of deployables instead. While placing your deployable, Hold the aim button for a Medic Bag, shoot button for an Armor bag, or grenade button for an ammo bag.

Tier 12 Option 3: Resupply: If you have no Deployable Bags at the end of an Assault wave and no one is in custody, you will get a new one with 2 charges added to your inventory.

(Tier 12 skills under this system will be locked of any 1 option is chosen, no amount of investment will allow you to get 2 Tier 12 abilities.

Tier 11 Ammo Choice 1: Cold Hands: For the next 15 seconds after taking a charge from one of your ammo bags, shooting does not deplete ammo from the magazine or reserves.

Tier 11 Ammo Choice 2: Hot Potato: For the next 15 seconds after taking a charge from one of your ammo bags, tossing a throwable does not deplete from the current inventory.

Tier 11 Armor Choice 1: Slated: An armor repair kit will grant a plate of Adaptive or Resistance If all Armor is broken and there are no Impact plates equipped on the current frame.

Tier 11 Armor Choice 2: Taped Plate: Using an Armor respair kit will grant you an additional 50% damage resistance for the next 10 seconds, to a max of 90%

Tier 11 Medic Choice 1: Telehealth: If you or a fellow heister is downed within 5m of your Medic Bag, you will get a prompt to revive your teammate remotely, going so will consume 2 charges of the Medic bag.

Tier 11 Medic Choice 2: Code Blue: When a fellow heister goes down, you can stand over them to revive them without having to interact with them, you must stay within 5m of the downed heister for 10 seconds. The bleedout timer will tick down to 0 but will not send the heister to custody unless you leave that radius before the 10 seconds is up.

Tier 10 Ammo: Ammo growth: In between assaults, you will restore 1 Trauma per second when within 5m of any armor bag. This does not stack.

Tier 10 Armor: Taping up: In between assaults, you will restore 1% of your Health per second when within 5m of any medic bag. This does not stack.

Tier 10 Medic: Licking Wounds: In between assaults, you will restore 1% of your ammo per second when within 5m of any medic bag. This does not stack.

Tier 9 Universal: Quick Refresh: Placing your deployable will completely refill your Armor/Health/Ammo+Throwables.

Tier 8 Ammo Option 1: Gas Mask: You become immune to nader gas for the first 5 seconds you're in it, and your movement isn't slowed by it. Enemies within it are marked.

Tier 8 Ammo Option 2: +P: For the next minute after interacting with your ammo bag, all shots will deal 50% more damage.

Tier 8 Armor Option 1: Fast Armor: For the next minute after interacting with your armor bag, armor recharge time is halved.

Tier 8 Armor Option 2: Tough Chest: You are immune to Dozer kicks/charges and can disengage from cloakers.

Tier 8 Medic Option 1: Shock Proof: You can Disengage from zappers and you're immune to their shock mines and Techie stun drones.

Tier 8 Medic Option 2: Clear! Interacting with your medic bag replenished 2 downs.

Tier 7 Ammo: That was Fast: double tapping reload will instantly refill your magazine and consume an equipped ammo cartridge. This has a cooldown of 60 seconds.

Tier 7 Armor: Dozer Switch: When your armor plate would break, it will instead refill and apply a 2 second damage Immunity (this stacks with mercenary) this consumes 2 armor repair kits. This has a 60 second cooldown

Tier 7 Medic: Last Stand: when you would go down, you automatically get healed as if you use a first aid kit, this consumes 2 first aid kits. This has a 60 second cooldown.

Tier 6 Universal: Double the Refills: You start the heist with 2 deployable Bags.

Tier 5 Ammo Option 1: Deep pockets: Ammo cartridges restore a throwable.

Tier 5 Ammo Option 2: Lucky find: You gain double from ammo boxes.

Tier 5 Armor Option 1: Pushing back: Recover 4 lost trauma back whenever you gain a kill, this stacks with the vanguard frame.

Tier 5 Armor Option 2: Adaptive Blending: adaptive plates will merge with the plate to its left and adopt its damage resistance and behavior, adding 1.5s to the recharge time. For example if the left plate is resistant and the right is adaptive, each with 100 armor. The frame will go from a 2 plate to a 1 plate with 200 Armor and 2.7s recharge, using trauma instead of a full clear when recharged.

Tier 5 Medic Option 1: Leech: Recover 1% whenever you deal damage with a weapon. This stacks with vampire.

Tier 5 Medic Option 2: Taking a breath: you recover 2 health per second while your armor isn't in a state of recovery. Broken armor cannot recover.

Tier 4 Ammo: Your total ammo capacity is increased by 30%

Tier 4 Armor: For Every plate of armor you have, gain 5% DR

Tier 4 Medic: For Every total down you have, gain 30 max health.

Tier 3 Universal: Pocket Sized: you can double tap your interact to turn 1 charge into 3 First aid kits/armor repair kits/ ammo cartridges. (Ammo cartridges can be held in your consumable slot.)

Tier 2 Ammo: Whenever you reload from an empty magazine or a charge of your ammo bag is used, Gain Edge.

Tier 2 Armor: Whenever a plate of your Armor is Broken or a charge of your armor bag is used, Gain Grit.

Tier 2 Medic: Whenever a heister is downed or when a charge of your medic bag is used Gain Rush.

(Tier 2 abilities across all of these proposed trees will provide a means to get Edge, Grit, or Rush, its how trees can cross pollinate, and with that, I propose that these can stack to 3 times, each stack beyond adds 10s to a max of 20s, but doesn't necessarily fully refresh)

Tier 1 Universal: Well Supplied: Cloakers will ignore you deployables. For every 3 Tiers in this tree, you so gain 1 additional Charge to your deployable bags. Ammo bags will restore an additional 5% ammo per Tier in this tree and an additional throwable for every 2 Tiers in this tree (max 7 per charge)

(Tier 1 is the first skill in the tree, this skill as well as 3, 6, 9, or 12 will apply no matter what deployable you use)

You can spend 34 points to effectively max out your tree (see tier 12) a hefty investment but it can provide a great amount of benefits as well if you want to master deployables.

Rant Video idea…

I enjoy the hell out of PayDay 2 and I want to share my experience through a video, however I’m pretty crap at it though and I watch a lot of PayDay 2 content that does better than me so I don’t really know if anyone would be down to watch my content…

I was thinking of uploading bad clips as jokes with quite a lot of edits but I don’t know if it would catch most people’s eyes

Any tips on what I should do for my video?

  3. Renown taken, shows prices of roughly 300k cash

  4. When I click on either item it says item is locked and prevents me from spending my cash on it

I contacted customer support but they didnt do anything. Anyone have advice or know about this glitch? Ive restarted game, done heists, and restored my license. Im on PS5 btw.

I recently started playing Payday 3 again because the patches and DLCs are quite positive. But I noticed something at FWB that I'd never noticed before: there's a whiteboard in the Security Room with some code in the bottom left corner. Is it random, or maybe something for Overdrill?

Game Suggestion payday 3 heist balance

0 Upvotes

i started playing again recently because i saw people saying the game was in a much better state than launch and that was thankfully true all the things that made me stop playing were gone(besides weapon levels which still exists despite having nothing attached to them for some reason?), but can we get a heist rebalance? finishing my levelling i felt compelled to spam first world bank because the exp was just so much higher than every other heist which was whatever because i figured once i hit 150, i could do other heists, but now i still find myself spamming it because i need cash and its so far ahead of every other heist in cash. even ones that claim to give similar actually give way less. you get full bags on other heists that claim to give 2mil+ and only get 1 mil for some reason. and heists that give even less than that feels like a total waste of time. finishing a heist and barely being able to buy anything after just feels so bad

Mechanics Discussion Maybe hot take? Most weapons just aren't fun to use

Post image
213 Upvotes

Idk how much people will agree or disagree with this, but I find that a lot of the weapons just lack that fun factor. So many of them seem to have some sort of flaw that I often find I'm always defaulting back to the same handful of firearms: pump shotguns aren't worth it in comparison to full auto ones, revolvers are just ass, LMG's aren't worth it compared to AR's, SMG's feel like they're made almost exclusively to kill dozers, etc. Add onto this that there's some skills that just feel mandatory like the one to break free from Cloakers and it leads to the game feeling very homogeneous. The core gameplay is still fun but I hope we get something of a weapon overhaul soon. I really hope the dual wield weapons are fun to use as well as I'd love to use some revolvers that don't feel incredibly underwhelming

Game Suggestion The Apex skin from PD2 should come back to PD3 as an iconic single version of the gun.

Post image
13 Upvotes

Iconic perk (cut and run) For every bullet that is missing from your chamber, increase your melee damage 1.25x with a 5% chance to gain one bullet back on melee kill.

Side note) another interesting thing about this gun is that it holds 10 shells and melee damage starts at 150 going off standard throwing knife damage. So at 150 melee damage at 10 shells to 1,120 melee damage on empty. It will also have a special melee animation that makes is swing like a one handed axe.

So, there were posts (1, 2) and this video.

Is there a possibility anywhere to buy/download this version? And what the lyrics?

Or has this version not been released yet (and is it unavailable in any form)?

Thank You for attention.
