CRIMENET – The dynamic contract
database lets gamers pick and choose from available jobs by
connecting with local contacts such as Vlad the Ukrainian, shady
politician “The Elephant” and Mexican drug trafficker Hector,
all with their own agenda and best interests in mind. CRIMENET
features dozens of varied, exciting jobs and as the player
progresses, new contacts with new jobs become available.
Choose Your Profession – As
players progress they can invest in any of four special professions:
the Mastermind, the Enforcer, the Ghost and the Technician. Each
features a deep customization tree of associated skills and
equipment to master and they can be mixed and matched to create the
ultimate heister.
PAYDAY Loot – Finishing a job
isn’t just an accomplishment to be proud of. After a successful
heist gamers will also earn rare and powerful new equipment such as
masks, weapons mods, mask modifications and a variety of other
accessories.
Weapons and Modifications – A
brand new arsenal for the serious heister covering everything from
sniper and assault rifles to compact PDWs and SMGs. Once players
have settled for a favorite, they can modify it with optics,
suppressors, fore grips, reticles, barrels, frames and stocks –
all of which will affect the performance of their weapon. There are
also purely aesthetic enhancements – why not go for the drug lord
look with polished walnut grips for your nine?
Mission Assets – Every job has a
set of purchasable assets that can alter and enhance the heist such
as a faster escape car, blueprints or even inside help.
Character Upgrades – The
signature PAYDAY mask can now be customized into tens of thousands
of different combinations, color and material variations and there
is a bigger selection of gear to wear for the discerning
high-fashion heister.
Multistage Jobs – Many contracts
feature several separate stages allowing for mission forks and
different outcomes depending on what the players accomplish in each
individual stage.
Rob Banks With Friends – Players
must choose their crew carefully because when the job goes down they
will need the right mix of skills on their side.
PAYDAY Gun Play and Mechanics on a
New Level – Firing weapons and zip tying civilians never felt so
good.
Dynamic Scenarios – No heist
ever plays out the same way twice. Every single scenario has random
geometry or even rare events.
Character Progression – Gamers
begin as dime store thieves and as the game progresses they unlock
new skills, weapons, accessories and masks, eventually becoming
legendary robbers.
Play It Your Way – Each job
allows for multiple approaches such as slow and stealthy ambushes to
running in guns blazing. Players hit the target any way they want
and watch as the heist unfolds accordingly.
AI Director – PAYDAY 2’s new
AI director breaks new ground and requires even more from the
dedicated co-operative player base. Enemies will devise strategies
in response to player action like flash banging, breaching tactics,
freeing hostages and even recovering loot bags. Let’s do this!
