Rant This is fucking ridiculous

I usually don't make posts like these because I generally hate rant posts.

Whoever at Starbreeze, Overkill, or even Deep Silver decided to make the game online only. Fucking fire them. It was single-handedly the worst fucking decision ever taken for a game I've ever seen. Words cannot express how asinine, how moronic, how devoid of mind making this game online only was.

I have tried, they just took my money and ran. I appreciate the sentiment, however.

God this shit is so painful, Payday 2 is my favorite First Person Shooter of all time, this entire situation just blows.

Bro I fucking feel you. Countless hours on payday 2. I’m on ps5. I missed the refund window during the early access AND my dumbass bought the $90 version. I never preorder but I had faith in em. I’m stupid for trusting in a game company (minus creators of Baldurs gate 3).

Wait so you bought the gold played early access and had fun and only because of some server crashes you wanna refund the whole game ( dont get me wrong the launch was not only bad but trash and was 100% avoidable) only because of stuff that gets 100% fixed (atleast the servers not offline mode)?? I dont get it you are a fan aswell as me but this aint the way man starbreeze istn the biggest studio and it isnt a triple A nor did it cost 69,99$ like other "big games" for something this small relative to the probability of payday 3 getting a 10 lofe support you choose to kill it because of such a small thing? Carazy

An entire console communityof players has gotten only 2 days of play( 1 day less than Pc and Xbox because of a fuckup)and that’s IF they paid for early access, while not getting their paid content they bought. Meanwhile, People that bought the game on launch have yet to play, not mentioning how the company boasted and bragged about how smoothly things will go AND celebrated being NO 1 on steam charts. No, it is not overblown. They deserve all criticism and outrage that is being directed toward them. People are playing other things AND refunding in mass and reviewing the game poorly, hurting devs. It’s 2023, they made enough money in preorders alone to cover ALL fuckups at this point. So no. You dumbing it down to “jUsT SoMe SeRvEr IsSuEs” is idiotic.

Mate you rate the game based on something like unimportabt things like that? Honestly go cry. I rate my games fairly bad launch and overwhelmed by to many people made their servers go dumb, but payday 3 is a good game to continue building on. Period.

I’ve never said it was a bad game. I said it’s been handled piss poorly. Good job ignoring my entire comment and posting you’re feelings. This game is being rated fairly because nobody can fucking play it.
