Helpful tips when playing the game
  • Join payday 2's Official group to get all the free community goodies.

  • Before going 'infamous' for the first time spend all your cash on opening weapon slots and buying the most expensive weapons multiple times, then sell them once you have become infamous. (gives you extra cash for starting your new infamous level) do this for the first 5 prestige’s....after that you get to keep all your cash from then.

  • Make sure you choose the correct load out before joining a game, there's nothing worse than somebody joining a stealth mission in full combat gear.

  • 5 achievements and 5 masks can only be collected during halloween if you want these you have to play during the halloween event.

  • Try and collect as many 'Gage Courier Packs' as you can on every mission, they give you great mods for your weapons and also give a good xp bonus at the end of the level.

  • Certain weapons can hurt your teammates such as grenades and RPG's dont fire them near allies or yourself as you could easily down them and potentionally fail the mission from a mistake or messing around.

  • Try and play as the same character all the time, then you will get use to allies calling for you to help them. (For example i always play as Hoxton and if i here someone shouting 'Hoxton' i'll know it's me they want to follow them)

  • If you hear someone trying to get a cop on the ground, try not to shoot them, instead try to help dominate them into a hostage.

  • If your getting tasered, try your best to mark the taser for your allies so they can help you out

  • Picking safes is always quicker than drilling them, nearly 5x faster.

  • Don’t over equip your stealth weapons, a silencer and tactical laser are all you need.

  • For ECM rushing you need to have 'ECM Specialist' Aced on the Ghost tech tree.

  • When spending your first 5 infamy points, spend them on the 5 masks that grant you 10% skill tree bonus, getting these will allow you go get higher skills quicker.

  • At the end of every mission you will be given 1/4 of what you earned as spending money, the rest goes into your off shore account.

  • To help get an escape mission, kill as many civilians as you can and leave during an assault

Continental Coins & Crime Spree
Continental coins

Continental Coins are a special currency earnd for completing, Heists, Side Jobs, Trophies and Crime Sprees. You use them to upgrade rooms in your Safe House, kit out your AI team members with various abilities and to buy back into a Crime Spree you have 'suspended'.

Crime Spree

Crime Sprees are a way of earning more payday's in a session (Paydays are the cards at the end that you turn over) for example one normal heist will result in one payday reward. During a Crime Spree once you start getting to the higher levels and activating more ... you can earn around 8 paydays in one heist. I played upto Crime Spree level 324 (about 20 missions) and earned over 300 payday items.
  • Make sure whoever is hosting the Crime Spree has the highest 'Crime Spree Level' otherwise others wont earn any rewards until there levels are equivalent or lower than the host's level.

  • You choose from one of three randomly generated maps, once you complete that heist you choose one of the next three heists generated, and just continue as long as you can.

  • There is a standard difficulty that you cannot change, you make the levels harder by activating mutators, the more mutators you activate the harder the heists become, but the more rewards you'll earn per heist.

  • Once you collect your rewards, your crime spree will end and you can start back from 0.

  • If you 'suspend' a Crime Spree if will cost you 'Continental Coins' to start it back up again, the more you suspend it and the higher the Crime Spree level, the more Continental Coins it will cost (and it can cost A LOT) i suspended my Crime Spree at level 324 and it costs 162 coins to buy back in.

  • Most body armour skins that can only be earned through a Crime Spree, you need to reach certain milestones in order to unlock some of them.

Skills and Perks
There are a lot of variations you can choose and I’m sure other people will prefer a couple of different skills, but these are what we prefer to use in our builds for the way we play the game. Other suggestions are welcome.

Standard Stealth Build


HACKER PERK DECK.

Allows you to bring the choice of ECMS/Bodybags/Trip Mines

Stealth Saw

HACKER PERK DECK
Saw Mods Silent Motor & Sharp Blade

Dodge

*REQUIRES LEVEL 5 INFAMY



Dodge gameplay is all about movement....you need to keep moving. Run around like a madman and then run some more. Always shoot for the head. Bulldozers can be killed in one clip if you just run up to them and shoot them in the face point blank. This build is all about silenced pistols and quick revive so make sure you use akimbo pistols with extended mag (if you have it) and choose a decent secondary pistol with good damage (Deagle). This build requires you to take the suit for maximum dodge.

Tank

*REQUIRES LEVEL 5 INFAMY



The Tank build is solely to absorb as much damage for the team as possible, for maximum survivability you need to take as many hostages as you can including converting police, and just keep nailing those headshots.

Sentry Guns

*REQUIRES LEVEL 5 INFAMY



This build gives you 6 sentry guns but you need to stay behind your them and let them do all your damage, only run around to collect ammo to refill them. The main weapon you'll be using is your secondary pistol as you'll need your primary weapons ammo to refill the sentry guns. Make sure to turn them on AP rounds for best results.

Solo Effort

*REQUIRES LEVEL 5 INFAMY



For those who think they can go it alone, with this build you have many chances to survive by yourself but remember you will still need your team to win. Good Luck.

Safes Drills and Skins
Some of the old school safes require a drill to be purchased in order to open them, however all the new safes (that have dropped since 24th june 2016) can be opened without drills. You get a safe drop on average about once a week, in order to open them just start up the game, then once on the main menu click on 'Steam Inventory', click on the safe then open and enjoy your new Skin.


Extra XP & Quick leveling up
  • Once you start going infamous, you get extra 'infamous' experience at the end of each level. The higher level infamous you are the more 'infamous' experience you'll get.

  • Find all 10 Gage Courier Packages on each level and you'll get an extra 2000 exp.
Here is the order of levels we prefer to do to level up quickly. (All on OneDown & Overkill)

*Note: You need to have a friend on level 80+ to help you, he needs to buy the contracts on Deathwish and run through the levels for you...Then you help him when he goes infamous.

Quick Cash and Experiance
Ecm rush is probably the best way to get quick cash and experience... For those that don’t know what ecm rush is... It’s where you chain your ecms one after another that delays all the phones and pagers, allowing you to get in and out without any police arriving. (for this you'll be best using the 'Ghost' build given above. Why spend 20-30 minutes on a level when you can do it in 4 minutes.

Please note that all money and experiance can vary depending on Infamy level, Skills, Perk Deck completition, Weapon mods and Extra loot collected

Mr. Fancy Pants 11 Nov, 2015 @ 7:10pm 
nice guide for fresh players.

just a few little things I noticed while I was looking at the skillpoints section you might want to check on:

thick skin aced: only works with balisitc vests not CTV and ICTV.
duck and cover: does not work with ICTV. ICTV has a -50 dodge basic. with duck and cover you will still have -35.
chameleon basic: the extra concealment applies only in chasing mode. not during the "assault".
Scrublord 11 Nov, 2015 @ 12:01pm 
You should add a small portion at the end entitled "Friendly Fire."
Apparently there's a lot of new players from CoD and Battlefield who're used to RPGs and grenades not harming teammates.

Just got out of a lobby where I had 6 downs, four of which were from friendly RPG fire.

Nice guide, but you got the "400 bucks" achievement wrong. When you tie up or kill the hobo in the blue hood, he'll drop a knife. You need to pick it up. I think this will give everyone in the lobby the achievement.
