Starbreeze is gearing up for the September release of Payday 3, which is more of a sequel than a reinvention of the wheel. just a big polish. Fans are largely positive about the look of the new title, beyond one big issue. Unlike previous titles, this is always online and a service title. people don’t like it.
Protests against it aside, Payday 3 essentially doubles down on a series of existing but not really fleshed-out Payday 2 system extensions and improvements. The main one is stealth. This was a very effective tool at one point until it was nerfed. That means every robbery ends in a shootout.
Payday 3 released a video showcasing its stealth mechanics five days ago, but decided to tackle the subject by hiding it.if you go to Payday 3 website Watch the gameplay trailer, but if you turn the volume down halfway through, the stealth trailer fades in and replaces it. It’s a bit of a hassle, but a really great idea. Alternatively, visit the page in an incognito Chrome browser to view the stealth trailer.
The dev team did a great job making this stealthy. In fact, after 4 days of silence, I finally had to encourage players to find the video. It was done through the medium of poetry, and the less said about this dog, the better.
You didn’t do anything wrong but we waited so long, what did we do wrong? Should I have taken another route? We showed you to be violent, but now we’re going to show you to be quiet Don’t think like a riot, try to be quiet Lower the or just drop the burrito and leave… https://t.co/k6v09AKuXcJuly 15, 2023
The McGonagallness here is clearly in the verses that try to make the player understand what needs to be done. “Please be quiet” “Please lower the gauge” [sic] “drop the burrito” is obviously waiting for you to rhyme with Secret.
Yeah, very good As for the trailer itself, the best thing about the film is how goofy the payday gangs look as they crouch and move around. It’s no joke to say that moves like this are my favorite game element, and it confirms that Payday 3 will be a video game par excellence.
It also showcases advances in mechanics to make stealth a viable option, with teams using skylights to rip off museums to evade various security systems and eliminate guards when necessary. , cut the glass and threw the museum down in a tense few seconds. Get the loot back to the other team members before everyone shuts up and scarpers. Stealth isn’t a viable option in Payday 2, but it looks like Payday 3 can at least use it to get a head start before the heavy forces roll in.
PC Gamer’s Tyler Wilde played Payday 3 to try out the new stealth mechanics before everything went completely wrong. Don’t get me wrong, the breakdown of a well-thought-out plan into a massive Heat-style shootout will be part of Payday 3’s magic formula. But this time around, it’s a good sign that stealth isn’t just a team joke, it’s a viable tactic.
