It’s been a terrible launch and there are still major issues that need fixing. Too little content, bad progression system, bad matchmaking system, mostly boring skill tree for loud… But I’m still having a lot of fun with it despite all of that. I wanted more out of a finished game, but at least most of the heists that it shipped with are interesting and fun. 99 Boxes can go to hell.
I can’t figure out why anyone bought this garbage to behind with. Obvious retread with heavier monetization. Just an obvious cash grab of a game.
Damn shame. At its core, it has the potential to be a really fun game! It just started off as an absolute shit show with far less QoL features than it’s predecessor had. Payday 2 got several hundred updates over its decade of activity, so the game will get better over time. The new companies in charge, Starbreeze and Deep Silver, really shit the bed on their decision making, though. There’s a lot of absolutely dumb shit involved with launch-day PD3.
Hell, there was supposed to be their 1st patch coming out today, that was pushed back from the 10th. It’s been pushed back again without even a hint of a new deadline.
I’m not surprised…it’s just not fun. It’s grindy as hell and no one wants to go loud.
gonna be honest I didn’t even hear about the game until this post
Polar opposite of baldurs gate 3 release
Damn crazy how release day had more players than Sunday/Monday
What’s a typical dropoff?
Not sure but you want 50% of players to stick around. Eve Online had to polish and revamp their new player experience multiple times because newbies kept quiting their first week.
