PAYDAY 2: Update 211.1

Update 211.1 Changelog
Update size: 15.7 MB

Hello Heisters

Yesterday we release the third weapon pack DLC from Jiu Feng. We've seen a lot of great responses both the weapons and the charms. It is great to see that you are enjoying the content we make. We have a hotfix to release today addressing the issues that have been reported since the release.

Changes
  • Fixed an issue with the fire rate of the under-barrel for the Kang Arms Model 54 Pistol being too high.
  • Fixed an issue with the KS12-A Burst Muzzle where shots were silenced like when using a suppressor.
  • Fixed an issue where you could attach the KS12-A Burst Muzzle or KS12-S Long Silencer while having a barrel that should prevent barrel extensions.
  • Added missing achievement icon to the achievement menu.
  • Fixed an issue where the weapon charm would detach from the Vulcan Minigun during the reload animation.


There was also an issue reported related to using a 45-degree sight gadget in combination with the KS12-S Carry Handle. This issue is still being worked on and will be included in the next release.


Keep on being charming.

PAYDAY 2: City of Gold - Jiu Feng returns with a new shipment!

Hello Heisters!


Jiu Feng brings us an interesting offer in the latest shipment of black market firearms and weapon paraphernalia. He starts the offer with three different firearms that will bring the boom you need in your loadout and an Akimbo variant for all the ambidextrous heisters out there. With a reputation of bringing something interesting to the table, Jiu Feng will not disappoint you here. Take a look at the Pistols, they pack a bigger punch than may be apparent at the first glance. However, that is not the only ace up his sleeve this time. A brand new cosmetic will both be part of the DLC and also a few available for free.

Jiu Feng Smuggler Pack 3

First up is the “KS12 Urban Rifle”, a compact Assault Rifle with a lot of power. And if you need it to punch even harder a simple DMR kit can convert the rifle to a single-fire heavy hitter. On top of the aforementioned DMR kit, this rifle also has a custom muzzle breaker, the ability to choose between the Picatinny rails on top of the gun or on the carry handle for scope placement, and also one of the largest silencers in the game.

Second is the “RUS-12 Angry Tiger Revolver”, a large powerhouse and a true hand cannon in every sense of the word. Easily tearing holes in any oppressor, no matter how heavy their jacket is. The only thing better than a big iron on your hip is a big iron with armor-penetrating bullets. Apart from the mods available to all weapons, this weapon also has an option for a custom wooden grip, and a short barrel, and a custom Stabilizer for the long barrel.

Finally, we have the “Káng Arms Model 54 Pistol”, available both as a single or an akimbo weapon. At first glance, it may look like a normal pair of pistols but a keen eye will notice that under the barrels hangs a small shotgun barrel, a nasty surprise for any opponent that gets within range. On top of the normal shotgun ammo, you can also load these backup barrels with Flechettes or AP Slugs. These pistols can also be equipped with extended magazines and barrel extenders.

Last but not least there is also a new scope in this pack, the Z5 Owl Glass Universal Scope can be equipped just like any other Rifle or SMG scope and give more options when reach is your game.

Joy: KS12 Urban Rifle with Z5 Owl Glass Universal Scope and KS12-S Long Silencer
Rust: Akimbo Káng Arms Model 54 Pistols with KA54 Barrel Extender and KA54 Bull Stopper Addon
Dragan: KS12 Urban Rifle with Z5 Owl Glass Universal Scope and KS12-S Carry Handle
Player: RUS-12 Angry Tiger Revolver


[h2]Weapon Charms[/h2]
Jiu Feng brings even more new and exciting things to the table with weapon charms. A completely new cosmetic, have a cute little loot bag, grenade, or a Dallas mask hanging from your weapon as you make your way to the next PAYDAY. 4 awesome weapon charms are available in the pack, and an extra 2 charms are available for free, either to members of the community group or via an achievement.

[h2]Weapon Colors[/h2]
Of course, there are also a nice set of weapon colors included in the pack, Jiu Feng won’t let you go out heisting without a new lick of paint on your arsenal. With 4 very different weapon colors, you can be sure to find one that suits your style.

Akimbo Káng Arms Model 54 Pistols with Green Circuit Maze Weapon Color and the KA54 Bull Stopper Addon.

Hello Heisters

Yesterday we released a meta update. Today we have a hotfix for a few issues that appeared in the patch. Specifically on the keypad in Shacklethorne Auction that could become interactable and thereby soft locking the level.
