Is this game amazing? Yes. I've heard people say: Well if you buy it, you can only play the same exact heists over and over again. Is that true? Yes. But the same exact heist only means that the objective is the same. The amount of police, hostages, location of the objective can change everytime. And there are quite a lot of heists, so trust me, you won't get bored. You can customize your weapons a lot, you can use XP for very usefull upgrades, that just give you that little extra that you need for some harder heists. It makes it just a little bit easier. In other games, if you want that one gun or that one upgrade, you have to go grind your way there, repeating levels over and over again. In this game, you don't grind. The upgrades are not so important that you HAVE to get it to complete a heist.

Another complaint: You play against AI, that's really boring. Why is the police not a RL player as well? Well, that just proves that those people have never played the game before. If a bulldozer is coming your way you are not thinking by yourself: 'dang it I would've loved it if the bulldozer was played by a RL player. You just think about getting the bulldozer to the ground, while being tased and attacked by two platoons of FBI SWAT. Really, the AI doesn't make it boring. And if you decide that the lower, easier heists are too easy, you just step it up a notch. You don't need a certain level to do it. And if you find out that you went a step too far, you just step down a notch again.

I was also asked: You play in a team of 4 random people, is there not a lot of trolling and other feats of noobism? Well, to be honest, it happens. But it never happened to me that I had three noobs on my team. And occasionally, you get in a crew that just fits right together. 4 random guys that just know what has to be done, and do it. And that just feels SOOO good. I once had a conversation with a guy on my team about his girlfriend and family etc, while we were doing a stealth mission. Great fun.

To conclude, there is no better feeling then taking down a SWAT squad that comes running around the corner with just a few headshots. Some weapons in this game are just amazing if you use them right. The game is really well balanced.
Go play it, and you'll see. I hope to see you somewhere while we are robbing a bank together.
