Planning DLCs before you've even launched the game should be illegal. So pretty much. They are planning to release an unfinished game where micropurchases rule supreme so everyone gets on the same content level.
Hey you bought the game? Cool. But if you wanna play with us you need this this and that DLC pack. It's only an extra 40 bucks.
I mean even if they hadn't announced, it's Payday it was expected. Fuck it I even prefer this, I am surprised companies do this, now we know what is on it and what is coming and if is worth it buying it now or not.
The alternative is finding out when you already bought the game.
The alternative is them releasing the full game. Announce what is on it. And THEN after that is done. Start working on additional content.
I dont want to defend this kind of monetization, but pd2 probably had the best kind of approach, as only the host needed it start it, so if someone had it in your friend group had it you were good.
Well exept for the weapon and perk decks, as you only got them if you had the dlc, but it didn't split the playerbase.
(also fuck the loot boxes)
Tell me you have not played payday without saying so... this is how they operate
I've played plenty of payday. Love their VR version.
