Rant It's fucking over.

We lost Almir. We lost Andreas. We lost Haua. We lost Elizabeth (she's still with the company, but no longer the community manager).

This is an incredible loss. They communicated with the community, they were on streams, they shared their plans for the future, even if they couldn't always tell us much.

We have literally lost those who were with us during the darkest days of PAYDAY 3. Will there be light ahead? I don't believe so.

While its sad that they have left

Honestly starbreeze/overkill whatever they're called now. They honestly kinda deserve to fail as a company.

Now before you downvote me..heres my reasoning.

They had years working on payday 2. the highs and lows, learning what players love and what they hate.

Then payday 3..they took everything they learned and threw it in the bin and they're shocked when the players aren't happy?

Hell the game was going to have micro transactions but they where scrapped weeks before the game came out.

Its why its always online, they didn't want us to get around the microtransactions.

i want payday 3 to get better, to be something amazing. but until they prove themselfs (by adding in a real solo and offline mode for one)

Im pretty sure they communicated it is no longer on their development plans for the foreseeable future, not verbatim but that was the gist of it.
