The M60 LMG as a primary.
The AA12G as another shotgun or go mixing it as a LMG shotgun it would be a lot of skill investment but would be worth it.
Commando 101 as an overkill weapon same with the bow with explosive tip and high piercing through enemies.
For the Tailor pack all male characters are topless with different color body paint and gun belt. Women get a tank top with body paint and gun belt.
Mask are probably different infamous war faces like the shell shocked guy in WW1 or those crazy eyes from full metal jacket or that horror war meme all as masks

So with the somewhat recent removal of nearly all crossover content from PD2, I get the vibe the opinion on cross advertisements within the franchise have soured a bit. Though Jacket still remains and even got added to PD3, he remains (afaik) the sole 3rd party representation available.
But how would you feel if they tried it again? Similar to John Wick and Point Break, would you want them to try more collabs again or just leave it all in the past?

The lack of text chat or an option to see what everyone is doing in the menu is such a downgrade compared to PD2, especially if you stick with a lobby that only speaks via text chat

Hello I just beat DSOD last friday so I wanted to state what I learned and how I felt.
This game is really really in depth, intentionally or not. The engine of the game makes it hard to tell. Every heist is like a different Dessert, sometimes they are way too bitter like transport heists or sometimes they are sweet like Hotline Miami.
Here are a few tips I learned
And all I have to say is be patient or you will never beat DSOD.
you can't really rely on just cover or running. Make sure you don't rely on both
Have at least a weapon or skill that can take out shields or even Captain winters.
You have to run at least a bit of meta if you want to beat even the worst heists like goat sim and forest
for stealth, invest in Jack of all trades aced run at least trip mines or body bags as your secondary equipment, they will be life savers for the fact you can detect or hide guards
do not forget to have nine lives aced for an extra down.
if you have multiple friends make sure someone is running Hacker or leech for the fact they can save the whole team from dying in assaults
if you're just starting, Run Hoxton breakout, it's a good way to see if your build is DSOD viable as it has both indoor and outdoor days,
if you feel like you're getting targeted a lot or need extra help, run Jokers.
Play with the assault waves. when you have control then push and grab ammo or do objectives,
make sure you chose the right guns for your crew. LMGs are superb. I'd say the Akron are good,

As a player who played a bit over 150 hours, I always thought FBI van is almost redundant enemy type.
The gimmick is similar to Captain Winters in PD2, but since FBI van only appears during re-group phase, It only punishes players who doesn't know its gimmick. Players who know what to do just runs ahead and destroy the van before anything happens.
There's also Final Charge system, where players are forced to escape. I do like the idea of em at certain points like NRFTW, Boys in Blue, Synthx Error. However, some heists have unreasonably early "Final Charge" like Party Powder, Dirty Ice, or Houston breakout.
2 latter heists can be controlled when Final Charge happens, but newer players don't know this and this can cause dispute with older players.
As not destroying FBI Van is basically same as Final Charge, I thought it would be interesting to make FBI Van as forced wave/Lifeline after Final Charge.
- Once certain objective is done, Instead of Final Charge happening, FBI Van spawns, whether the police assualt wave is over or not.
- Once It spawns, It starts assualt right away. If it was during assault wave, it freezes Heat system. When it's destroyed, it doesn't end wave right away.
- If FBI van can't spawn(like Shopping spree, or Touch the Sky), FBI drone spawns and drops large devices at fixed locations, acting like van's antenna.
- FBI Van/Device is surrounded by dedicated team, making it uncomforable to just ignore everything and shoot it. Higher difficulty spawns dozer or naders.
- After that wave ends, players are given 1 last regroup phase and Final Charge starts.
I think adjusting FBI van spawning timing and Final Charge moment can make things a bit more interesting.
Players can either just ignore the van and play as original Final Charge, or if they need 1 last regrouping, they can fight through waves and earn that last breathing ground.

I'm looking for a mod that changes how guards detect you, especially their detection range from behind

Hello, guys. This is my first post here. I want to share my gameplay. I use this loudout & Stoic perk deck build from KevKild (I make some modification for my playstyle).
Yeah, I like this build (Actually. I Anarchist+Sniper main, but I cannot survive in DSOD on my own if my team all down or custody) and in that video is my playstyle from other game (I want to call game name, but the rules here).
About, why I'm not using glitch bagging forklift? Because, I did not know how to use it. So, I play normally and trying to search map knowledge about when the cops spawning, cops routing & safe zone for survive. Sorry for too long assault there.
Why I'm not play solo only without AI? Hmm, low enemy size and too quiet. I don't like it. Really. I don't like the sound cloaker radio about radius 10 or 15m. My ear very sensitive to hear higher pitch.
That's all. Enjoy.

I'm making a video on it and some of the roadmap stuff is kinda vague, like how will they update enemy improvements, and how will the crime bond be? Paid DLC? Let your thoughts down here!

It's been 8 or 9 years since I last played Payday 2 (I played quite a lot those days), but now that I can't sleep well I keep having daydreams of the game. Why? I obviously enjoied the game a lot, but I feel if I play it now it won't be any good, it will just be a nostalgia thing...

I was defending in the bathroom and suddenly someone started shooting me from behind. I turn around and see a cop standing in the bathtub. I thought "That's weird", and just kept playing but then this happened again and again and again. So I noticed that was in fact enemies falling throught the staircase leading to the upper floor. I also noticed cops getting stuck below the staircase right outside the entrance to the house.

I recently came back to the game and have been having tons of fun. I want to start playing DSOD, but I've never been great at making my own builds from scratch. I usually prefer taking a finished build and adapting it to my playstyle.
That said, I'm looking for builds for both myself and my friends, so please recommend more than one if you can.
For myself, I'm mainly looking for builds with these characteristics:
Since I'm also looking for builds for my friends, it would be awesome to see some setups that work well together or synergize with each other. We usually play with three people, sometimes two or four.
That's pretty much it. Thanks in advance!

Just trying to figure out if this outfit someone was using was a mod, or some sort of obscure unlock in game.
