I have a complex love/hate relationship with Payday 3. It is a bad game? By all means, no. Is it a broken game? By all means, VERY.

The good:
- Removal of Captain weiner, body bags and handcuffs.
- Simplifying builds by removing perk decks.
- Stealth is so much more fun with the addition of casing-based skills.
- Being caught while in casing mode no longer starts police assaults but instead gives you a second chance to continue stealth depending on your circumstances.
- No more holding F simulator, easy minigames to make the interactions finish faster.
- Enemies are no longer bullet sponges on higher difficulties.
- GOODBYE offshore account!

The bad:
- The COD looking UI as well as adding levels to guns.
- Funky police AI, feels as if they spent most of their time on Cloaker's circus acts.
- Inability to sell guns/attires (destroying isn't the same.)
- Inability to continue playing with the same lobby, instantly sent back to menu after heist is done.
- Grenade, who the hell changed the keybinds.
- Why grenade launcher spam no kill bulldozer 😭??? Overkill weapon? More like Underkill. I understand he's wearing bomb tech suit and all but come on, they're not THAT invincible to explosions.

The ugly:
- Broken pieces of ♥♥♥♥ servers.
- Game is what you so like to brag of "Always online," so inability to pause in solo play.

There's much more but I can't be bothered, the point is, good game with world's most awful launch, they should've spent more time cooking the game instead of giving a fixed release date.

Despite all that, would not 100% recommend until you see players start talking about servers being completely stable. But if you have nothing better to do with your life like me then sure, have a go at it.
