Whats is your worse experience with f2p so far /pdg/?

All of the fucking level 0-60 players that join my DEATHWISH LOBBIES

Some fucks wanted to stealth Bank Heist
I humored them
They fucked up three times in a row
I gave up and switched heists so I could get my loud gear on
The fucks were using silenced pistols and CTVs
One of them was Wick and wearing a "cool and edgy" red skull mask

>Its a overdrill episode

None because I carry them even in DW, is a good time to have spectators while solo it.

Big Bank Deathwish is a shit show every time

>nobody goes to the crane
>someone gets spotted by camera before i can drill the roof door
>nobody can find the right computer
>nobody will interact with the terminal in the security room
>everyone uses up 4 med bags before we even open the time lock

I love Big Bank but it's so frustrating because it's always filled with shitters

9th for GET DA FUCK UP

Praise Tribe

>yfw Hotline miami DW can give more money than Rats DW.

Retarded level 80 players who want to stealth Art gallery normal but refuse to ecm rush.

That's a pretty decent payout.

pub still bag every engine on big oil

>Be me playing Counterfeit
>Players are joining,one lvl 33 and another 2 lvl 75
>Tell them to go with Plan A,they go outside the houses with CTV's
>They use medbags after sustaining a few hits
>Tell them not to print money because i don't wanna stay 1 hour and 30 minutes with these assholes,they print anyway
>I grab the money plate and rush to escape,2 of them try go trough the horde of cops with "muh armor" and get downed
>pic is mfw

Kys

How about no?

On the bright side, the bags are at least labeled properly so it's not impossible to figure out which one to throw in.

>Implying it's a problem now with the big oil calculator that tell you in a few clicks which engine is the right one.

I like to do it manually

I'd do it manually more too if OVK didn't mix up the units for pressure between the clues and the engine readouts, and if looking for the clues in the basement wasn't such an annoying chore.

Everyone was a retarded shitter at some point

I left at the beginning of the year, what the hell's the meta now?

M308 / Deagle with suppressor.

ICTV with the maniac perk deck. bonus points for taking inspire aced in your build.

Is suit grinder still a thing? Do the new trees finally allow for more weapon flexibility? Are sentries not shit now?

lbv with frenzy and anarchist perk deck
raven and he judge

sure but you probably want lbv

if sentries could pick up bags and move around they could do the entire heist for you

>Is suit grinder still a thing?

Still DW viable but really barely now. Devs nerfed the perk deck and dodge later on, removing the croutching bonus because it was too hard for the community to understand the concept.

>Do the new trees finally allow for more weapon flexibility? Are sentries not shit now?

Simple, we have too many skill points at level 100 now, especially for stealth builds. Sentry are completely different now with new features but they will require a weapon that fill really fast with fully loaded aced, like the GL40 or China puff.

So it's possible to be a King of All Trades now?

Depends on what you're thinking. At V-100, it's possible to have an optimal armor (or dodge) with a saw, shaped charges, expert driver asset and inspire aced.

Also silencer's skills cost less now and also were buffed so one should keep it in mind.

Anyone have the latest version of Silent Assassin? Looks like Lastbullet took it down.

>Overkill: easy tier
>Deathwish: "oh shit" tier
why the gap?

>overkill: easy tier
>deathwish: normal tier

>all these asshurt thin-skinned ribbitors in the comments

Did they remove the running jump crouch thing that gives 75% dodge what's the best you can get now

So, should I buy Dragan or Sydney?

I'm play loud only

Why does Overkill like to bully Murkywater? Most of the latest heists involve them.

Dragan for the character, Sydney for the deck.

>fucking up bank heist
>fucking up goddamn bank heist stealth

I have literally met level 30 players who can stealth bank heist competently
How do you manage to fuck that up once, much less three times in a row?

Because we need an antagonist now that the Hoxton arc is over and the developers are too lazy to continue the Garret and captain winter story.

>Last heist of the game is three-way shootout between Cops, Payday Gang and Murkywater

Because we kept asking for it.

what is the best shotgun and why is it Joceline with DB?

>not the Mosconi instead

enjoy your short barrel / big ass shotgun.

Yeah, they generally don't have any place in DWs (I did a some DWs a couple of days ago with two freeshitters and a XXV100, Alesso and GOb, that went splendidly) but I find it pretty fun to comf-frag on OVK with them. I haven't played since last fall so it's nice to do heists you've never seen before with others that don't know shit about it. :3

...

high art

Joceline has like 10 more ammo lol you can put AP on it and only be like 3 less ammo than the mosconi and be able to shoot through shields

raven

Reinfeld is better because it looks, feels and sounds better

i fucking love these pictures where the gang is just hanging out
is this traced from Friends?

>Unironically using AP slugs

>fucking up your fully loaded aced skill with AP slugs

Ayyy

I don't use joceline anymore im just saying it's possible

I haven't played in 3 years is JP36 still the best gun in the game

iunno, gud fenarts anyhow

Always, especially now with the rebalance that make it hit 40 damage

underrated meta/10

:3

>Shoot one bullet from auto-rifle
>2 shots are audible
Gunplay enjoyment ruined

I thought that was just the tommygun being badly implemented

This always happen when you use the auto-fire mode. For some obscure reasons, Overkill can't do shit while they are mods that fix it easily.

...

why does sokol look like a black person with white skin

Thanks for your opinion animefag I'll be sure to never use the gun again now because of you

...

...

>starting shit

Post Jimmy

Jimmy is better heister than Clover. By sheer virtue of not being woman.

Stop posting this gay shit please they look nothing like the characters

...

I thought it was because Jimmy was best heister and Clover wasn't.

>4 U

My point was more about people comaplining "Hurr durr, Jimmy has worst voice" while Clover shrieks nearly on the same level as the goddamn Siren from Killing Floor

please stop

People who complain about Jimmy should do a couple of heists as him. He's hard not to hate at first but the guy grows on ya.

Also Clover isn't the worst anymore, that title belongs to Sydney now. but maybe that's because I sometimes play as Clover

I like Clover's lines! She's simply the unbalanced psycho of the group. :3 Makes for a fun character what with her tiny frame.

A plan is to put a difficulty between the two to bridge the gap a little then make deathwish a little bit tougher.

...

Sounds good, but I wonder how to make it tougher without making it totally "stelf or gtfo"?

I agree that deathwish has a huge issue of stealth versus loud. As the loud difficulty increases in an exponential way, stealth does not.

I also want to have Jules look at the barrel nozzle attachments as well. A lot of them are useless like the funnel of fun. Silencers are way too powerful, especially with silent killer which is extremely cheap to go for.

...

93th for the Broomstick pistol and the Patchett smg who left us too early due to the nerfs.

I left this place months ago, what happened to the daily dose?

>Barrel nozzle
how about other mods while they are also at it, Making weapons ugly as sin because of stats isnt fun. There are mods that are straight useless that nobody uses and they arent only the barrels.

The Musconi has higher ammo pickup, more possible spreads, and a better reload time on firing two shots which makes it the better gun.

But Joceline has better ironsights
