Ryuga Death posted:In my experience, if the train door does not open on the second day after trading some of the paintings, it means that there won't be an ambush. Just hurry to the van and tie down the three civvies that show up there. I've never once done Frames 2 without the ambush happening, usually before we've even got all the bags out of the train, including the times (which have all been since the patch) that the door didn't open before the final painting was up.

I think they've fixed this in patch 5 so that the doors stay closed but the ambush only occurs if you didn't stealth day 1. It's still possible to have the police show if you don't deal with the dock workers though and they seem to be alerted by the helicopter leaving, so you have to be fast to get them under control.

For the record, as soon as the doors open you should have a mastermind (ideally) sprinting towards the street to control the three workers. They seem to spawn in an agitated state so if they aren't dealt with shortly they phone the police.

Are there really only 7 people playing this in Xbox? I know it had supply issues, but still. I'm on the megatag as lennylasher I just moved house a couple of weeks ago and still haven't found my mic, but I'm not a complete tit so I should be able to follow along competently enough. edit: Mate lent me his headset, I'm good to go.

I wish they remove the drat money drops because is painful enough to get a single attachment for weapons I actually use. They've patched plenty of stuff but they keep that poo poo, oh, and getting four bulldozers spawn at the same time on the first assault wave. Is the third time today I see that wiping out us all. Then you restart the mission and get maybe one or two total.

Just started messing around with the saw. Pretty fun but having a hard time finding a complimentary secondary. Best results have been with that mini AK. What are the levels I should be bringing this to? Bank obviously and the painting day but what else? Is the ace carbon skill worth it?

If you're deep enough in Enforcer for a Saw you should be rocking a Loco for all the sweet shotgun skills you should have picked up. Right? Riiiiight? e: re: levels -- four stores, big oil day 1, framing frame day 1, mallcrashers. I carried mine on escapes as well if we did not have C4 so I could just saw through doors.

If you're going to go Saw primary, I would recommend either the Locomotive, or the Bronco. The Locomotive for anything under Overkill, and the Bronco for Overkill since the Locomotive takes three headshots to kill a tan FBI swat. Ammo management becomes a problem, admittedly, but being able to near insta-kill bulldozers is the best feeling in the world.

Dezztroy posted:Hell no. Spend your points elsewhere. When you ace the saw skill, you get an extra blade. Does an ammo refill give you 3 then instead of two? That would mean 12 saw blades from an ammo bag instead of 8, that's actually pretty significant. I think the problem with the carbon blade skill is that it isn't enough to hit a breakpoint on anything. If you ace carbon blade can you even get deposit boxes in one tap? If not, you might as well be setting all 12 points on fire.

I got the mini shotgun too yeah. Plus all my shotgun skills are maxed so ill try that out. I think I need the 2nd ammo bag. Few pages back there's mention of sawing the truck in watchdogs. Where do you saw it at? I want to try that out. E: last question hopefully but what indicates if a job is overkill. Is that the same as pro with the red outline? 56k fucked around with this message at 19:07 on Aug 24, 2013 |

That would mean 12 saw blades from an ammo bag instead of 8, that's actually pretty significant. Fully Loaded gives you another half of a blade (it's at ~50% durability) and actually aides your ammunition count with other weapons so you should definitely get that before you even think of putting any more points into the saw. And, yeah, that's how it works. You'd get nearly four full blades with Fully Loaded and the saw skill aced.

Just get Berserker Ace or whatever the right skill on the fourth tier is. It actually has some benefit outside of using the saw, and if you have low health you can one tap deposit boxes. Or you can dump those points into something that, so far, is only useful for getting a few more bags of loot on a single heist, because spending money is what no one has enough of in this game. There's really nothing you need an ungodly amount of sawblades/sawblade durability for.

Have any numbers been released for the new Silent Killer stats? My suppressed Crosskill feels like it's doing the same damage as an unsuppressed one however I'd like to know for sure before I start putting silencers on everything.

Nope. Terrible damage and completely unremarkable everything else, other than having a large clip (like that really matters).

I don't know if bringing a saw just to saw out the bottom is worth it on Watchdogs Day 1. Seeing that you are severely handicapping yourself and your team with having no primary in what is a long shootout is not a good idea. Added to the fact that the saw is of negligible benefit since the only use it gets is to saw out the bottom at the start of the mission and that is it.

Holy poo poo, I just saw something in the FF7 LP thread that gave me the perfect idea for how Overkill could make money relevant again: http://www.icollector.com/Commemorative-Colt-Wyatt-Earp-Buntline-Special-Revolver_i10495186 Put gold mods in the game, make them Infamous items, have them cost 5-10x the price and provide like +1 (-1 recoil and noise... and maybe +10 visibility ) on every stat compared to the non-gold versions of the same mods. Also, put in precious metal versions of every gun (maybe Infamous drops, maybe just unlocked with level progression--maybe even something as simple as just the regular gun levels +60), where they're functionally equivalent to the regular guns except they cost like 10-100x the base weapon's price. Not necessarily gold with those; maybe a nice titanium or silver/platinum, or even a shiny sea green-lime corroded bronze color.

Asehujiko posted:Is the P90 secondary worth anything before I waste half a million on it? Hope you like having only 1 mag change. This game needs a complete overhaul on the server browser and card system. Payday 1 choosing what mission you wanted to do didn't involve staring at a blue map hoping your mission pops up. Oh wait the difficulty is to low, to bad so sad might as well start a new lobby and hope for the best. Also why can't I just buy the mods for guns? Hell I'll even accept the insane pricing on them if they got rid of the loving cards. And why add escape to 1 day missions? A solution for people who don't like speed runs? Escape missions would be fine if the cards are addressed but until it is this game is not getting any funner that's for sure. KennyLoggins fucked around with this message at 20:23 on Aug 24, 2013 |

Just about the only use I get from it is doing rats day 2 where the gangsters have low health and so I'm able to clear out an entire hallway and two rooms quickly before having to worry about reloading. Outside of that, it's just about useless unless you're really fond of normal and hard difficulty where nobody has armor.

56k posted:E: last question hopefully but what indicates if a job is overkill. Is that the same as pro with the red outline? Difficulties are indicated by the gold dots/skulls following the initial white dots/skulls which indicate the base difficulty. More white = harder by default, 0 gold = normal, 1 gold = hard, 2 gold = very hard, 3 gold = Overkill. I just solo stealthed 99% of Framing Frame (thanks for the bag help gamesguy!) and that was cool and fun. e: And holy hell, I could never really find a mask/material/colour combo that looked good until I realized I had my textures on low. Turned them up, and now when customizing even the awful oak pattern looks pretty decent. Carbon fibre, Celtic knot, grey/black is a very nice combo.

I have the strangest thing going on with Payday 2, having a real hard time getting connected to a game in the first place and nine times out of ten I end up getting more and more desynced until I get booted off the server with the message "connection to host (alternatively one or more players) could not be established". I tried pretty much all of the asinine "community fixes" Overkill posted on the issue after I found out that this is a common problem, to no avail. The kicker however is that I can play perfectly well until about 4 pm and then it just all goes to poo poo.

Yeah, that's possible. I never had any issues with Payday 1 or Left 4 Dead 1 & 2 though, which is somewhat odd if that's the case. There seems to be nothing to be done on my end so I can only speculate to pass the time while not robbing a bank on the internet.

The irony that I cannot find a Framing Frames to practice stealth on after all this time is not lost on me. I need some goons to go "this is how you stealth you idiot, stop teabagging that cop's corpse and starting hitting them with your gun."
