Customers are saying

Customers appreciate the engaging gameplay and immersive graphics of Payday 3, finding it a fun and potentially captivating experience for both solo and group play. However, some customers express frustration with the game's requirement for online connectivity, even for solo play, and find the limited content a drawback. The online-only nature is a significant point of contention for some players.

    Controls seem alright could use improvement for better response time. Graphics well its a but lower then usual but Im not picky about graphics. I dont like that you can have the money to buy weapons or cosmetics but have to level up a lot in order or even buy them. Besides that I’d play woth the boys.

    I played a lot of Payday 2 on PC and console and enjoyed them both so I was excited for a sequel. However seeing as Starbreeze didn’t learn anything about what the fans after spending 10 years on Payday 2 and having a streak of terrible games and almost going bankrupt thanks to Bo Anderson, they somehow made it worse, there is no OFFLINE mode meaning if you don’t have internet or your WIFI goes out, you can’t play. Armor system sucks and skill trees are average at best. The improvements on stealth are actually a pretty good step up from payday 2 and have infinite cable ties which makes things a little easier, the loud gameplay can be annoying for new players as it’s more like Payday The Heist than Payday 2. Progression system is terrible and is NOTHING like Payday 2. The devs have started doing a roadmap of improvements such as UNREADYING in the pre game lobby despite the fact that it should be a feature at launch, vote kick, and so on. They did confirm an offline mode too but I wouldn’t recommend getting this unless it’s either on sale for dirt cheap or the devs actually implement offline mode.

    Fun return to a great series. I think people are a little too harsh on this game considering it’s still a great addition. Yeah the criticisms are justifiable but it’s still really fun to play and I’m just glad Payday is back.

    The gameplay is good... if you can actually find a match. During launch the game was riddled with bugs, mostly serverside/matchmaking issues. If you wish to buy this game, wait for a few patches to come to iron everything out.

    Anyone that has played this will understand what im saying. This still has potential but they tried too hard to make it different than 2. They should have kept everything mechanics wise and especially the progression system. The progression system of 3 is so aggravating that you feel like you're playing or nothing, let alone nothing to really spend your money on like favors which i guarantee everyone would want.

    I’ve been waiting for this game for a good while and even though it was a rough few days since game launched, they got the game running and honestly plays way better than the first two paydays and very satisfied that this game is worth your buck if you love games that involves heists, strategy and having fun with friends or family.
