Review: Payday 2.

About this game:
PAYDAY 2 is an action-packed, four-player co-op shooter that once again lets gamers don the masks of the original PAYDAY crew - Dallas, Hoxton, Wolf and Chains - as they descend on Washington DC for an epic crime spree.

The new CRIMENET network offers a huge range of dynamic contracts, and players are free to choose anything from small-time convenience store hits or kidnappings, to big league cyber-crime or emptying out major bank vaults for that epic PAYDAY. While in DC, why not participate in the local community, and run a few political errands?

Up to four friends co-operate on the hits, and as the crew progresses the jobs become bigger, better and more rewarding. Along with earning more money and becoming a legendary criminal comes a new character customization and crafting system that lets crews build and customize their own guns and gear.

My review:

Main Menu

This game is a first person shooter (FPS) game, which is my favourite kind of video game. It costs you $19.99 excluding all of the downloadable contents (DLC), which sadly needs to be bought separately. Currently, there are about 22 DLCs that can be bought with the latest one being ‘The Alesso Heist’. Also, you get to collect 324 achievements!

I recommend you to find a group of friends to play this game with, maybe about 2-3 friends. This is a team play based game, without constant communication with one another it won’t be fun for anyone. Moving on, you start on Level 0 and you’ll level up each time you complete a heist. Note: This depends on how many experience (EXP) that you’ll gain after every heist, each heist is different. The harder it is, the more EXP and money you’ll get. You get to choose to play on Normal, Hard, Very Hard, Overkill or Death Wish. 

Inventory

This is how your inventory looks like. You can purchase guns ranging from pistols to sniper rifles as your primary or secondary weapon. Besides that, melees and equipments like grenades/pipe bombs/molotoves are handy too.

Skills

Perk Decks

Along the way, you can unlock new skills and perk decks to help you in game. My personal favourite would be the Mastermind + Fugitive + Grinder perk combo.
Here are some of my perk decks + skills; Grinder PerkStealth Build.
In my opinion, this games really sucks out all the energy in you. You have to constantly think of a strategy in order to survive the heist. Other than that, majority of the heists are fun to play and amazing. Also, you get cool masks to wear.
