Payday 2
Payday 2
Hey everyone, I bought Payday 2 when it was discounted for around $7.50 and spent about 103 hours playing. I mostly enjoy taking down enemies as the tank in the team. My go-to weapon classes are an LMG, a shotgun (RPK not really), the Street Sweeper Shotgun, the R39 sniper, and a Para Submachine Gun. For sneaking around, I use my modified car 4 with either a Deagle or Gruber Kurz. What about your favorite weapons or play styles?
I also enjoy a lot of bullet sponge. I lean towards Enforcer and Mastermind with more emphasis on Enforcer. My main choice is the locomotive shotgun, and a sniper rifle for my primary role, mainly due to its piercing capability. I don’t know much about you, but what I love most about Enforcer is finishing Man of Iron and taking down shields. I also appreciate the deagle for stealth, especially for shadow raid missions.
I enjoy testing my chances to stay alive... honestly, I went for the gothic version last week because I think it’s a game I’ll really enjoy. It cost £25 and had a few issues, but it was offline. Still, I plan to invest time in it. I like the feeling of pulling down the mask and beginning—it sets the mood perfectly. Yano
I own multiple builds exceeding 300 hours. For covert operations, I rely on a CAR4 and Locomotive—both quiet—combined with Ghost and Mastermind expertise. To make noise, I either go all-in with a fully tech setup or blend Mastermind and Enforcer tactics. For loud missions, I opt for a nearly complete tech build or mix Mastermind with Enforcer, and I either pair a CAR4 with a Locomotive or a .50 sniper with a Para12 (all heavily modified except the .50). I also frequently use an LMG, typically the Brenner, for certain heists.
Dodge build using Rogue deck skills, Fugitive and Ghost abilities (besides essential cable ties and bag carrying) excel in stealth and aggressive play in Deathwish; the main issue is ECM can’t open doors, which is handy for farming bank jobs. The FAMAS feels weak; a sound mod is recommended (available). A well-modded Famas lets you defeat a bulldozer in under 1.8 seconds by delivering a magic attack to its face on Deathwish. Judge shotgun works as a sidearm with an explosive round, plus a perfect Swan Song = 12 seconds of high-speed 500rpm rounds, taking down anything in your path. Those two skills help you stay hidden and maintain 7 concealment, giving an extra 9% dodge chance and a 20% (or 27% if you ace the low blow) crit rate on Fugitive. Tried TechForcer with LMG…it’s too sluggish for effective action—it just slows the team down since one player can’t reach DA Choppa quickly or haul loot bags efficiently.
