this is exactly what i expected from sequel of the "payday 2"
absolutely love it unironically

↓actual review starts here↓

things i like it

Gun Play
Gun Play is Satisfying Enough to make me keep playing.
Amount of Weapons choices are lacking,but they keep adding weapon so that is fine to me.

New Addition of PAYDAY 3, Overkill Weapons are also fun to use. they're really powerful in some conditions. (but not the MGL, they sucks pls buff)

To my opinion,way to obtain overkill weapon is kinda ass to me,they drop like COD Carepackege, and some map drop literally nowhere.
Adjust condition of how to get the weapon will make those weapons slightly better.


Horde of Cops
This is what make PAYDAY series unique.(atleast to me)
They give you a lots of cop, SWAT, you can name it.

Most of Heist throw you a 100 of, some of are really a 1000 of it.
With New Addition of Overkill weapons, its fun to mowdown them.

Some People don't like the Heavy Swat from PAYDAY 2,but as variety of enemy, i like it.
Wish more variety to the SWATs, probably they don't do it, because stats wise theyre identical.

things i don't like it

lack of Heist,Grinds
Yes,probably said by other review,they lack a Heist a lot...

Without any of DLC, you can play 8+2 Heist, compare to PAYDAY 2, they have 14 job on launch. (and day 2/day 3 job)

With DLC, they add a 4 Heist (2024 Dec), but still about the same as PAYDAY 2 launch.
And this time, Map variant that give you a randomness to map is non existent in some of heist.

If they keep add the heist, this game is worth to grind.

Talk about Grind,lack of Infamy system, that reason i played lots of time in PAYDAY 2.
in PAYDAY 3, beyond lv150 is pointless, they give you a infamous level, but just give me a mask pattern and color.

Weapons of PAYDAY 3 also have grinds, but honestly some of weapon are too powerful or too weak, so theres no reason to grind to some weapon.

Its like PAYDAY The Heist all over again, but this time just fancy graphic with requirement to online to play solo. (PAYDAY the Heist is 2012 game and PAYDAY 3 is 2023 game like cmon lol)


Weapon Balance
Probably nobody care about PAYDAY Weapon of Balance or im just too picky, but i want to point it out.

First of All,some of DLC Weapons are too good to make base game weapon inferior.
Gastini Viper 50AE, simply a pocket sniper. penetrate and 1 shot shield, 1shot everything except Bulldozer(still 1mag a dozer).
TAS-12, is a pump action shotgun, the literally better version of reinfeld 880.
FSA-12G, Reinfeld but faster firerate and faster reload, also semi-auto.(pls give some love to reinfelds)

And yes, also base game weapons are kinda sucks.
Northwest B-9, is low damage/high fire rate weapon that worse in every single rifles. no reason to use it.
Reinfelds, both Shotgun and Snipers are pretty much no way to make it powerful, other than just give them a buff.
All of SMGs, not too weak, but Enemy Armor System is just hurt the low damage/high fire rate weapons.
Secondaries, they're just too weak to use, especially when you have existence of Viper and JackKnife is just make other weapon to trash.

So yeah,give love to the some of weak weapons. (PLS DONT MAKE INDENTICAL STATS LIKE PAYDAY 2 THAT KILLED ALL OF REVOLVERS)


voicelines
This is personal thing to point out.

WHY IS ALL OF SWAT MEMBERS ARE ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ CRINGE TO HEAR IT
THEIR QUOTES ARE LIKE "IM GONNA ♥♥♥♥ YOU UP" "I GOT YOUR BODY BAG YOUR NAME ON IT" "YOUR ASS IS MINE" "DROP YOUR ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ WEAPONS"

LIKE WHY THEY SOUNDS ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ 8TH GRADER TRYING TO BE COOL OR SOMETHING THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE PROFESSIONAL

AND WHEN THEY KILLED THEY SAY "CHRIST THEY KILLED'EM" "THEY GOT ONE OF US" SO MUCH IM GOING TO INSANE

WHY IS SOUNDS LIKE THEY ONLY HAVE 10~20 QUOTES I HEARING SAME QUOTES 100 TIMES IN 1 HEIST

Remember when PAYDAY 2 swat talk about hostage situations?
remember whey they talk with police code to report command?
or talk about how many heister remain, or talk about sentry gun presence?

STOP TAUNTING LIKE MAIN CHARACTER
THATS BULLDOZER'S JOB OR CLOAKERS JOB STOP TRYING TO BE LIKE A ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ MAIN CHARACTER

AND ALSO CIVILIAN ARE TOO STUPID TO UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION

HOW THE ♥♥♥♥ THEY TALK ABOUT MISSING TRAIN AND DROP PHONE WHILE THEY GOT ROBBED BY ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ PAYDAY GANG

LIKE THEY DON'T ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ KNOW ABOUT PAYDAY GANG THAT THEY LITERALLY ROBBED WHOLE WASHINGTON AND COUNTRY

AND AI CHARACTER IS ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ MUTE EXCEPT SPOT OR SOME MISSION LINES
THEY DONT EVEN REACT TO CIVILIAN OR NADES

Finally, my opinion about PAYDAY 3, is wait until Big Sales, they did 50~60% off to Yearly Edition so you want it buy it, go for all DLCs.
Other than that, is just support to starbreeze.
