Recente recensies door Elrond McBong

The ingame currency is not even enough for an outfit...

- Developer works against the community
- No mission selection (VT2 had one)
- Promised features are still not included 2 years after release
- Scam regarding the Imperial Edition
- Absolutely absurdly high prices for ingame cosmetics
- Performance is really bad at times. Every new update is a gamble whether it will run better or worse

No mission selection, no recommendation.
I would love to play it more, but I haven't touched it since release, simply because it's incredibly annoying to play the same missions over and over again without a change. I want to be able to choose which mission I play.
That's the only reason why I haven't played since release. An extreme pity and very unnecessary. Even Payday 2 has learned from this.

The heist itself is perfectly okay in itself. Not particularly good, not particularly bad.
The performance, on the other hand, is once again mediocre, but not as bad as San Martin Bank. In the outer areas the level looks really nice, but as soon as you go into the building it is typical payday 2 standard fare.
You can play the heist Loud or Stealth, both ways are a little different.
In Stealth, however, the RNG can be extremely annoying and you sometimes have to wait a long time for good opportunities.
All in all, the heist is okay. Payday 2 fans can buy it for 5,69€, all others should wait for a sale.

Edit: The clothing pack is okay. But don't buy the DLC only for the clothes, it's not worth it.

Edit 2:
I was able to improve my performance MASSIVELY with the following fix (as far as I know this only works with AMD CPUs):
1. start Payday 2 and a heist of your choice
2. tab out of the game and open the taskmanager
3. go to the tab Detal and search your Payday 2.exe
3. right click on the Payday 2 exe and select "Set affinity"
4. Click on OK
This must be done every time the game is restarted.

The non-recommendation still remains as this does not solve the problem, it is only a workaround.

The Heist is...okay. No more, no less.
The location is quite cool and relatively large, but nowhere near as nice and large as the Golden Grin Casino DLC.
The performance is good.
Another negative point is that both the loud and the stealth path are exactly the same.
Currently it costs normal 3€, for 1€ you can buy it, in my opinion, good conscience, but is absolutely no must have.
Normally I would go in the middle between "recommend" and "not recommend", but since I can not change the soundtrack for this heist in the menu and I'm doomed to give me every time this electro junk music I rate with "not recommend".

A very nice heist set not in Wahsington but in Las vegas.
The map is huge but the performence is great!
Stealth and loud each have different ways to get to the target whereby I personally like the stealth way better, but the soundtrack is 1000 times better in the loud version.
Makes a lot of fun to play, alone or with friends, I can highly recommend.
The price is, in my opinion, after completely in order, if he should be in the offer, grab quietly.

The idea of this heist is actually quite good, you break into a police station, free a prisoner and escape.
Unfortunately, the whole thing is implemented relatively uninspired, both the loud and the quiet way are exactly the same.
In addition, the performance on this map is also really bad, not quite as bad as the San Martin heist but definitely so bad that it disturbs.
For just under 6 euros I can not recommend the heist, if he for 1 or 2 in the offer you could rather strike.

2. tab out of the game and open the taskmanager

4. Click on OK

This heist is a simple copy of two heists already included in the game.
This in itself is not super tragic but unfortunately in the first part of the heist the performance is so subterranean that it significantly disrupts the flow of the game.
In addition, this heist should have been better divided into two days. If you make a mistake in the second part and restart you have to do everything again, which makes it not very motivating to complete the heist in stealth.

Extreme FPS drops are normal in the entrance hall.
This is not so bad, but unfortunately this is in an area that is crucial for the heist, which makes the whole thing unnecessarily difficult.
The heist itself is really fun, but even after 6 years, this known bug is not fixed, so I can unfortunately not recommend the dlc.

The Heist is okay, but almost unplayable because the performance is unbearable. The whole map are laggy as hell.
