Payday is a fantasy for those of us gamers that have hankered for the chance to play roles as the anti heroes, and feel good doing it. Who hasn't had that little voice in the back of their head when going through the drive through at the local bank that wants to pull a Heat style heist and escape with the Payday, well this game scratches that itch. Payday 2 is a much improved version of the first game, allowing for customization of the skills, masks, and weapons you want to use to make the ultimate criminal to fit your play style. The missions vary from a simple smash and grab store heist to multiple day events from meth houses to a dark highway.
The gunplay is tight, the weapons are varied, and every mission can either be ninja'd with professional finesse where nobody knows you are there, or you can tank up with shotguns and heavy armor and take the place by storm. The limit to what and how you take down your scores depends soley on your crew and your ability to work together. Overkill has taken great time and effort to work with and implement requests from players and forums to make the game cater to the fans. They generally care about the fans, take pride in making characters that are endearing and fun, and to keep you coming back for more.
You get a safe house to practice your weapons and skills in action before taking them to the field, and it doubles as a personal hangout complete with rooms for showing off your collections and armory, as well as your own vault with cash that stacks up and keeps track on a big screen to flaunt your successes to others. Every mission, while the same in scope, varies and changes each time you play it, and unless playing with the same crew over and over, your approach will too as different heisters join with different skill sets.
The price for the game is half of normal AAA titles out, and is worth every penny. Steam support was and continues to be top notch, and this is a title I will be dumping a lot of time into. If you take Heat, Left 4 Dead, and a Hollywood approach to an interactive first person experience, and think that sounds like a good time, you should have no qualms about picking up this great title.
I played for 4 hours after it went live this morning, and had about 50 hours into the Beta, minus a few hiccups, had a great launch so far. There are some hit box issues with a few weapons, some weird spawns and glitches yet, but nothing anywhere near serious that I encountered, and Overkill is actively finding, balancing, and eliminating things as they come to light. All in all, I think you should glove up, lock and load, and put your mask on. To quote Wolf, "Let's get rich."
Now if you'll excuse me, my escape van is waiting... and it is Payday.

Ok, if you are one of those people who like quick short reviews than just read this part. Otherwise go to the pros and cons and conclusion section. So, basically in this game you start out robbing small jewelry stores and eventually go to maximum security banks. It is a addicting because of its reward system. The CE comes with mask, gloves, wallet, and OST(more on this stuff in conclusion.) Overall it is a very good game. Buy it!Pros:
-Gameplay: Do you want to go in guns blazing? Or stealthily take out guards and camera's? It's your choice! You can try and survive while the police assault you, or take out all guards and camera's and then tie civilians down. Plays like almost any other first person shooter in terms of control.
-Reward system: There is payday at the end of each mission where you can pick a card and unlock a mask color, mask material, mask pattern, gun customization, or extra money. You also have a small chance to get a rare item that appears very little of the time.
-Customization: One of best things about this game is the customization. You can customize your mask with a material like wood, rubber, metal, ceramic whatever you want. then change it up by adding a pattern and colors. You can customize everything about your gun such as: Barrel, Barrel extension, Extra, Gadget, Sight, Grip, Stock, Magazine, Upper receiver, lower receiver, etc.
Cons:
-AI: The AI cannot pick up bags so on the harder missions it is nearly impossible to play with them. PLAY WITH FRIENDS!
That is all
Conclusion: A very fun and rewarding game if you put your time into it and worth the 40 bucks to buy standard edition. Please don't listen to rapister. He is a troll. Now, about the CE items. The mask is a medium quality rubber mask that I like a lot. It is based off of the character Dallas' mask in the game. The gloves are just surgical gloves. Not latex in case you were wondering. The wallet is decent and is the wallet I am using right now. It is not just printer paper. It feels like it is made of similar materials to that of real money. The Soundtrack is absolutely amazing. I already transferred the song to my phone.
