GAMINGtruth's own Chris Ramirez delivers the verdict behind Overkill's unique squad-based shooter, PAYDAY: The Heist. In PAYDAY, gamers get the chance to embark in full-scale heists where working as a team is essential to both survival and success.
With 4-player co-operative play, a variety of in-game stages and missions, and a dynamic FPS experience, PAYDAY: The Heist delivers explosive action found in a full retail game release. For the first time ever gamers can suit up as professional criminals and crack bank vaults and wreak havoc.
PAYDAY: The Heist is available on PC and PlayStation 3 via PSN for $19.99. For more information please visit the official website at http://www.overkillsoftware...
Free PC games this week include XCOM Enemy Unknown, Payday: The Heist, Aliens vs Predator 2000, Crash Time 2 and more.
In celebration of reaching 1.5 million members on Payday 2's official Steam community group, Overkill is releasing Payday: The Heist completely free for 24 hours starting October 16th, 2 days ahead of the originally planned date - October 18th.
The game will be free to download/keep, and will stay in your Steam library as long as you claim it within the specified 24 hour window.
So last time, the Payday 2 community was just short of 1,000,000 players and we were given 3 months roughly to gain 500,000 more! A rather large and daunting task, one I didn’t believe was possible, I am, however, beginning to change my tune on that.
I'll be glad to see an introduction of MORE infamy bonuses. It's still majorly unfinished.
A PS4 version would of been prime after the Hardline delay, but no one expected that.
It is but CrimeFest might not actually apply to PS4 & X1 so I didn't feel comfortable adding those channels to this article.
Some of it will arrive probably - free DLC, masks etc. But Overkill are being slow on Console DLC's, this might be fought with the CrimeWave Editions (just package the DLC with the base game) - but other things in CrimeFest won't make the Consoles e.g. Free Payday The Heist, that's soley PC I believe so console owners won't prosper from that.
EDIT - correction Payday The Heist IS on PS3 but that still wont reach X360, PS4 or X1 most probably.
From what I've played so far I like it... I'm not in to giving scores... I just need to play it more and slow down to learn the controls... I'm currently playing like 4 different games...
I haven't been online yet.. I played yesterday for like 40 mintues in single player...
everytime I went online.. it would say "searching for games" and no games ever appeared... I just figured it was cuz it was day 1 after launch and everyone is consumed currently with Batman and Dark Souls.... so I'm sure this little beauty will pick up later down the road... and it will even hit more when it receives the price-drop it's bound to get because there is so much AAA competition.
It's so underrated.
Agreed, it's a really fun game to play and for $20 bucks it's a steal. You have all these dopes clamoring about support for devs, yet here is a chance to directly support a dev yet all is quiet.
All talk these dopes are. Oh well, I for one will continue to enjoy this little gem.
