PAYDAY 2 News

We’ve had a wonderful snowy period since the last big sale, when it’s dark by the early afternoon and temperatures of -12°C (10F) we have plenty of good reasons to keep cooped up inside and play some PAYDAY.

So what are you waiting for? Get a blanket, pick your target, and get heisting!

[h2]PAYDAY 2: Update 240.5 Changelog[/h2]
[h3]Size: 12.7mb[/h3]

• Fixed a crash with environment fire.
  
• Fixed an issue where broken drills made no sound.
  
• Fixed an issue of where killing a cloaker with the smoke modifier outside of playable space made the game crash in crime spree.
  
• Possibly fixed an issue of where older CPUs crashed upon launch.
  
• Added a new launch option to PAYDAY 2 when starting the game, modern CPUs (2021+) should select the new option for better performance while older CPUs should select the standard option.
  

Updates may be incompatible with the mods you may have installed. Even seemingly unrelated mods may cause unexpected issues. If you are experiencing any problems with the game; try removing any mods you may have installed and try again.

If you are having issues with an unmodded game you can try to verify the integrity of the game files. In the Steam library; right-click on PAYDAY 2. Select "Properties" from the menu. Under the tab "LOCAL FILES" select "VERIFY INTEGRITY OF GAME FILES...".
The process may take some time to finish.

Hello Heisters,

Today’s update deals with a number of bugs and quality of life updates. Among the more noticeable is a change in how the game handles any damage over time effects.

The thing we really wanted to bring up in this message however, is that we’ve also bundled a lot of our licensed content in the game into one DLC. We did this in order to ensure you’ll always keep access to the content regardless of any future changes.
We’ll make sure to announce ahead of time when/if anything changes, we didn’t want you to worry when you spotted the DLC.

This also means we’ve moved around a few of the requirements of some achievements, again, this won’t affect those who already have them.

Check out the patch notes for today's update here.

Edit: To be clear, won't necessarily see this DLC in any list on Steam. It'll be in the background and appear on Steam data basing websites.
