Critic Reviews

80 / 100
"Played as intended with a group of friends, PayDay 2 is much like one of its heists: things can get a little sloppy, but the potential payoff is big."
80 / 100
"Payday 2 proves that you can't plan for everything. No two jobs, despite being of similar set-up, go down in the same way – and without the help of few friends, you'll never...
80 / 100
"Payday 2's presentation feels plastic, but the rest feels exhilarating and livened by the presence of human players you have to rely on."

Simple principle, well executed. Very fun!

Pretty cool game! It's the same principal, though with different scenarios. This sounded unappealing to me at first. However, after trying the game, I realized that they have implemented the scenarios and trait builds with enough variation to keep the gameplay fun. Accompanying this is pretty good stories and voice acting. In a way; a simple, but challenging game.

Simply one of the best coop games out there, ignore all the folks saying that 'its dead', most of the dlc is rendered 'obsolete' due to most of the new free content they have been adding throught the years being much better than the past OP dlc weapons.

Played this for about 440 hours, with friends and by myself. Whether you like shooter or stealth, hoard mode or level, easy or hard, this one got it all. There is plenty to be had in this game, but most of it is rubbish. That's the downside: only a few weapons that are actually worth using, but finding out which one works for you, is also fun.

My close friends had a hard time playing the game, but I didn't have much difficulty as it was my real profession.

- Introduction - Payday 2 is a co-op 1st person shooter developed and published by 505 Games and released in August 2013. It is a sequel to Payday: The Heist that was launched in 2011. A somewhat similar game to this one is Killing Floor 2. They both are a coop games and in both games you need to confront different enemy waves, but Payday 2 is still one of a kind. It is the only game based on robbing banks and has a lot of content such as guns, skins and maps. You can even get a great price on the Legacy collection with almost all the DLCs in one of the bigger Steam sales (Summer or Winter). - What’s so special about it - This game is one of a kind. It has tons of hours of fun gameplay and if you play with friends it’s even better. You have a lot of maps to choose from, a lot of guns and lots of attachments. And with the addition of DLCs it gets better. You get bonus heists, bonus maps and bonus customizations. There is even a DLC name “Payday 2: The Goat Simulator Heist” so you already know how it’ll be. You can do heists in two different styles. Either strategic, crouching, shooting cameras, not alerting the guards either the more destructive way, killing any guard you see, going full in and getting cursed at by your teammates. Either way, you will have fun. Doing heists is not a simple job. You have to break in without getting seen by anyone. If you kill a guard you need to dispose the body, by that I mean that you need to put the body in a bag and putting it somewhere that can’t be seen. And after getting in you need to be smart too. Someone has to go to put the drill on the safe while the others keep an eye out for other guards. - Art Design and music - The graphics for this game are very good for a 2013 game. Even the gun effects and sounds are very real. You will get very immersed in the high tensioned moments and the details help a lot. The cops are very real looking and the death animations are very well made. The music also helps a lot and sounds very good. It fits every situation perfectly. If you are going in stealthy or fighting the cops in full action mode, the music is set to create the perfect mood for both of them. - Is it still worth it? - This game is indeed getting old and I don’t know how many people still play it but doesn’t mean it is not still unique. The concept of the game is still very interesting and the content is rich. I’d say it is worth it to pick up the Legacy Collection at a very good sale (the summer or winter...

Amazing fun with friends

This game is crazy fun with friends. It is an old games, as it was released in 2013, but the mechanics are solid and the shooting feels actually great. PD2 is still getting updates and the community is pretty much alive and kicking. Totally recommended for the $1-$3 you can get it these days. You can play it solo with bots or online with pubs, it is still fun, but not quite the same. I love coop games and this is one that has given me many hours and many laughs.
