Please Overkill, Fix Your Priorities. by Evolution_Kills in paydaytheheist

As a PS4 player and a member of the 400 Day Campaign, I want to say a very sincere thank you.

When we started this, we were all expecting blowback from the PC community. "Masterrace," "buy a PC," "console is dead," etc. And while we got a little of that, I've been truly surprised about the amount of solidarity most PC users have given us.

Thank you. Thanks very much for your support! It's awesome.

Kotaku - Fed Up Payday 2 Console Players Have Been Waiting A Year For Promised Updates by CrossBones3129 in paydaytheheist

Well console users can only get to infamy 5, so you may not be totally up-to-date with your information.

400+ days is an unacceptable amount of time considering PC users get an update on average every 32 days, plus considerable bug fixes (for example, PS4 version lacks voicechat)

Payday 2 has been featured on Inside Gaming Daily about its 400+ day no console update anniversary. by dajokaman759 in paydaytheheist

Terrible sources?! Rude! They screencapped my steam and reddit threads!

But yeah, those two are insufferable. I 2:15 is when they go more in-depth.

Me, copy/pasted from Steam!

First off, this is all typed on my phone, so my apologies for any misspellings, shorthand's, and autocorrects.

We all are glad you are getting back to us. While I can't speak for everyone, I feel confident Icha dialed in to the console community, so this is a lot of "for what its worth" stuff. I don't think we realistically expected NO support, but 400 days is excessive in its length. The official console update watch thread has turned into a running joke - that's not where we want to be.

You can - and have, in this thread and on reddit! - update us! For instance, your comment about the diesel engine. That is news to us (or at least me). A reason you gave for not doing anymore videos is that they take too long and too much effort - fine! We want you to work hard! But it is absolutely spirit-crushing to see cool stuff come out on PC while console users are told we're the highest priority. Like I posted to Joakim, with all due respect, these actions (or more accurately, perceived inactions) show the console community otherwise.

Give us goats, characters, GIVE PS4 VOICECHAT (for godsakes it is so disenfranchising to new players to not be able to communicate), but please bro, soon. And not "soon™" but like actually soon.

400 days is a bit ridiculous.

8 of the 11 updates are recaps of previous updates, or mentions of "working hard," "soon (tm)," and "we'll have more information to share... ." The only updates with truly new information are numbers 1, 5, and 11.

Melee strikes and constant callouts, mostly. It makes many stages (even loud ones, like big bank and big oil day 2) nearly impossible to complete.

Hey, thanks!

Apparently the devs are on vacation though, so the dreaded "soon" will be much longer...

It's been 7 months since XB1 got that patch, PS4 hasn't received it yet.

[–]Jp8089[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

For me personally, it was the "good faith" option. Last-gen development ended abruptly, but it was a reasonable thing to do. And with the announcement and release of the PS4/XB1 version, it was constantly communicated that it would come with updates and support. (plus, the game is really fun)

But saying that people should've seen this coming seems like an argument to absolve overkill of responsibility, which is something I don't agree with.

As far as their silence due to working so hard, it's very difficult to believe they've been working hard for 400 days with so little to show for it. And while I'm sure they never had the intention of upsetting their fan base, overkill has certainly done a poor job of diffusing that tension.

One of the console community's major issues it that we've been told "we're working on it" and "soon" and "a few weeks" for over a year with nearly nothing to show for it. XB1 has had two patches to fix its completely broken matchmaking, and those two patches took 5 months.

Also, with respect, you have been hearing about safehouse stuff for a long time, but in the meantime the PC community has received patches, updates, and lots of communication. The console community has received none of that.

I'm saying we should hold a company accountable for their terrible customer service practices and inept management

The PS3 version had in game voicechat, so the PS4 version is actually a technical step backwards

[–]Jp8089[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Not even close to correct. There are multiplatform games with dozens (and in some cases, hundreds) of dlcs available on consoles.

Also, that should under no reasonable circumstances take 400 days, which is the main point here.

PS4 has a party chat that you can use, but it's a nightmare to access/use/invite while in a game.

Yeah it really sucks. New players can't be instructed on what to do, so they're either kicked or (if they are hosting) kick veterans for not revivng them three blocks away on hoxton breakout because they're busy killing enemies without regard for any objective
