PayDay 2 is one of the nicest surprises of the year. Overkill Software understands the atmosphere of gangster movies and wisely improves these pieces of gameplay, that might have been disappointing in the first game. The sequel is better in almost every way - you can play a thief and enjoy good character development and shooting systems. I really hope, that PayDay 3 will be even better.

Payday 2 is an excellent co-op shooter - a vast improvement over the first one. [Sept 2013]

A unique and captivating multiplayer experience that rewards team work over personal glory. But make sure you bring friends for the true experience. [Nov 2013, p.62]

Apart from the constant bugs, the game delivers various of engaging missions and it does not stop to be better with each mission. I genuinely enjoyed this game with my friends but I am gonna report some issues. Initially, the game just have a total of 4 vram. Consequently, if someone installed some mods and exceeded the 4 vram limit, the game will crush. Additionally, assume that a player took a mission's related item and that player disconnected from the game, the item will be gone and you will be forced to restart the entire mission to complete it.

Very dumb game. Break into some store/bank, drill open the safe, shoot thousands of cops and escape. Stealth is terrible, you can absolutely forget it because every time you fail, you have to restart the mission again, with randomized enemies and positions. Good luck. It takes ages. Best bet is just to shoot everything, way faster.

Too much DLC, without them the game becomes uninteresting. You obliged to buy DLC

Payday 2 is a Co Op game. While it might have benefitted with a cool story arc for a single player mode the game offers a great outing with 3 other friends for an experience that will keep having you come back for more. Payday is simply put the improved, polished and closest experience you’ll find to robbing an actual bank. It’s just legal.

Payday 2 is currently the best co-op experience of the year and a great sequel too. However, if you plan to play it just offline, you'll be disappointed.

Payday 2 is a great Coop-Shooter with many well designed Missions and a unique setting. The only flaw is the Team-AI – what is not a huge shortcoming for a coop-based game.

The bottom line is that I’m complaining because the action, the gunplay, the visuals, the demanding teamwork, the ultimate sense of gratification from leveling up and mastering the levels are all pretty much unparalleled, even if they could have been situated into a better gameplay structure. Payday 2 is a wonderful shooter that stands alone in a genre full of me-toos, wanna-bes, and coulda-beens.

Payday 2 is a very attractive offer for fans of the FPS genre and it's ideal for those who like frantic multiplayer games. We are facing a powerful title with big potential that will keep you glued to your monitor or TV for hours. The only thing to fear is the threat of an excessive repetition of its elements, which should be solved by distributing new types of heists and armament in sufficient frequency. If they do so, it could become one of the most played alternatives over the network.

Overkill Software have nearly perfected this wonderful recipe and they are definitely on track to creating something exceptional.

The disappointing Payday 2 is a sequel in the loosest sense of the word, with minor and unsuccessful updates to the gameplay, hindered with uninspired scenarios and terrible AI.

87 unique heists, 28 heisters, guns more than I could remember and endless replay ability. Such a masterpiece. Music is the best music in the universe and gameplay is addicting. Guns feel nice and there is a lot of variety.
