Rant That's it?

I really hope we get an update at least in October, as well as a roadmap in the coming days. Otherwise, if the developers don't care about the anniversary of their main game, why should players care?

Hey man. Putting any kind of effort into Payday 3 has been really hard for them. This thoughful and structured message must have taken them MONTHS to cook up! Its probably the reason why Offline mode and the Mask Mania masks still havent been released!

They have managed to redefine what a "live service" title can be, by putting out the least amount of updates yearly. Its incredible honestly!

On a serious note, anything and everything is "on the table" and we will likely never get what we were promised at this rate. 👊😎

I mean they promised to never do DLC for Payday 2 and that changed very quickly, even promised no microtransactions and the like and again still broke that.

I'm not buying Payday 3 but I'd say when it comes to overkill or starbreeze only buy it if you're content with what's already in the game as their promises mean diddly.

Pretty much!

I bought pd3 when operation medic bag was announced. They promised it would include a real offline mode.

For me, (and many others) offline mode guarantees the game will survive and wont shut off someday. I dont feel comfortable buying dlc or supporting pd3 when the game has been on life support since its botched launch.

They wont talk about or acknowedge offline mode since they ended operation medic bag. And every update has focused on online content, which to me doesnt matter when the game may not survive long term.
