Payday 3 | Syntax Error DLC - Worth the Money?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 июн 2024
- Payday 3's newest update, the Syntax Error DLC adds a new heist, 3 new weapons, a new enemy called the Techie, the Scrambler skill tree, and an assortment of cosmetics. Today I'm going to give an in-depth review on the contents of the update and share my thoughts on the situation. Is it worth the money?

courtesy of @Gnomed we unlocked new emote slots! Thanks so much
Hey do ya think we'll get scareface back as a playable character? He was the only person I played in payday 2.
scareface
its real bold of them to put out DLC this early for a game releasing in such a bad state. It's insultingly bold.
they broke even on launch day (reportedly even earned money) and are asking EIGHTEEN DOLLARS for this. it's not insulting, its a spit in the face.
I don't know why people are still saying "it was bold of them". Imagine if they didn't release it in the time they said in the roadmap. People would be crying like x100000000000 times more, something like "Your game is broken and you promised the DLC, you can't even release it!"
No, I'm sure they made the right decision.
@@foxwooshimagine defending them lmaoo
@@foxwoosh ..or they could have just made an announcement saying "hey guys, DLC will be a month or two late, gotta fix the game"
and then release a patch that improves the game.

Quick answer no . long answer no

Long answer mostly not
I haven't even bothered to play it since it first dropped. I was so disappointed with it, on so many levels. And I pre-ordered the silver edition. 😢.
I took then to the dentist
7 seconds to say no, 22min of shitting on the game because it deserves so...
Love how the new SMG isn't even using the .45 caliber bullet model that are in the DLC files for it and instead is using rifle rounds
Really wonder how starbreeze managed to mess that up
wait really? I didn't even notice, great eye
Because for most people a bullet is a bullet
Look in the chamber while doing the inspect.
That's just so lazy lmao
Already mentioned that in a stream. Inspecting is contineously being improved upon but wanted to push it as fast as possible since it was such a requested feature. @@DesKaisersMarineOffizier14
When you getaway plan is "stay low and keep firing" then there are some design issues.
the game features at least 3 or 4 heists where the getaway is just static and cops spawn right next to it. I'm not usually the guy that cares about "immersion", but c'mon . . .
They lean to PD:TH so much, they copied Heat Street and Panic Room escapes.
@@Dat_Jonx To be fair, they ALWAYS had escapes be inconvenient and out in the open. Its just this game is the first time it mattered by so much.
@@octoleechthere's a plenty of good escapes (and they really should've made PD2 Preplanning a default option for PD3), but yeah, there's plenty ass escapes.
@@Dat_Jonx Didn't they do this in Payday 2 already? Also what specifically were you referencing here?
I could've been given this DLC for free and I still would've felt ripped off.
I did and I do, tbh
@@darrkhunter96How did you get it for free?
@@kehlercreations maybe he have the gold or silver edition of game
@@andreasnicolasbritoserafim2949 But you need to pay to access those editions, you don't get it for free
Couldn't agree more. Haven't bought the DLC and zero plans to do so. Maybe once they tank the price of the full bundle to $4.99 in a year or two when the game has received much-needed core upgrades and quality of life changes. Thank you for covering it in such good detail, as always!
so it means you let them slap your face for a discount. good to know.
@@smokewheat-xr1xg personally, I’m waiting till it’s inevitably free like they did to Payday 2 lol

@@smokewheat-xr1xgIt's a value consideration, nothing more
Would've felt better if they fixed progression, but you know, ACTUALLY fixing it and keeping challenges out of it. Any heist could be awesome, and so could any weapon, but if I feel like my time is being wasted because of the challenges, I won't have fun.
With the new System is every Player 150 now 😴 i was 148 without the new Rep System thats a waste of time
@@xthijsbos6811 That's on you for enduring the old system, if it was up to me, and that's what I did, I wouldn't have wasted my time on the old system.
Honestly, this is kinda heartbreaking, I really want to like this game and i was hoping that the DLC would help breath in some life.
It's just disappointing to see so little put in as they ask for alot.
I'll grab the bundle if it goes on sale down the line.
It didn't. OVer a month later and this game averages 250 players a day. That's 0.7% the playerbase of Payday 2. Back 4 Blood even averages over 1000.
@@cococock2418 What a shame, from what was said from their twitter, hopefully they slow down on the DLC and actually figure out the core issues first
For the Drones, I like the idea that they stay at the place where they have seen you. In higher difficulty, the circle can be increased when they spot you, so that avoiding them is more important. That the Drone should act like the Guard, if he hears sounds in a secure area.
Steamcharts tell the tale....1.463 players in the last 30 days. Payday 2 still has 27k. And they are releasing paid dlc instead of more free fixes and content to get players in the game. *facepalm*
I find looking at pure playerbase stats so stupid. Payday 2 is playable on actual potato PCs,had multiple game giveaways and has much more content than 3 atm. I bet there is only like a thousand people who dropped payday 3 to play payday 2 instead. Others just went to play different games. Also people can just get bored with only 9 base game heists and move onto another game waiting for content drop which would result in rigging the player count stat
@@Qeseu ok, thats your opinion and i dont have to call it anything to disagre with it. Must be easy for you, calling stuff you dont like stupid and then giving no facts but opinions yourself. Respect! That said, PD3 has atm a fifth of the players of Payday 2 in its worst months. And the studio is in a very different situation...so yeah. Maybe try using facts instead of your own view to call stuff stupid. At least just TRY to read up on stuff before you build your own view out of the things you feel are true. Also maybe try: #justnotthatsmart instead - I know it could work better for you. But anyway, you do you. have a nice day.
I wish we would get a map that is more than one building. Like 4 stores but bigger and with the new detail with stuff like atms and such to rob. That was allways a neat detail that added to the immersiveness of the world, you can bring a saw and open an atm. That is gone now but I'd like to see stuff like this back.
Idk have some stores be the front for some crime thing and you dont know which store and you can rob the store too but you actually want the methlab in the basement or something. It's a bit sad that on most maps you can walk 10m and be greeted by an invisible wall.
4 stores wasn’t very good anyways tbh
Forget if the DLCs worth it, I dont even think the games worth buying yet.
Don't give this company any more money until they can get their shit together
I feel like they should add some skill point to use in the tree for scrambler to be useable but at the same time doing that would make other build broken so idk. I feel like this system of skill (and how it's been designed for the launch tree) can't really work well in term of balance, like it's either the skill is so broken that you can't afford to not have it or it will be too weak/situational so other skill will be used instead.
For now it might not be a problem but if you had like 3/4 more skill line in the tree theses skill needs to be strong enough to compete with what we already have but at the same time niche enough to not just be a straight upgrade and idk if you can afford to lose much of the skill we already have for lots of build
never played payday but really enjoy your style. have gamepass so access to 2/3 but ig im waiting another year 1/2 till the game is done to actually check it out
the real heist on payday 3 is the heist on our wallets
Love ya Gen
love you too bb
being a brazillian fan of Payday, the PD2 dlcs always had salty prices here. (R$ 23,50 for a US$ 6,99 DLC)
So seeing this DLC cost 17,99 DOLLARS, basically the same here, is sad in a miserable way.
and it also costs R$ 90,00 here too.
As a poorer american who can only afford 1 maybe 2 new games a year if im lucky, i know how you feel in a way.
if we are going to talk about 18 bucks for a heist, 3 guns, and cosmetics is pricey. We need to start talking about how microtransaction cosmetics being worth 20 dollars IS AN EVEN WORSE DEAL!
If you want to play the new heist by yourself, go ahead and buy it. With the current matchmaking, I've only had a full lobby twice since I purchased this DLC.
I'm still baffled that payday the heist has the best exp framework out of the entire series, with the only flaw being how excruciatingly slow it was for a game with 9 heists.
Thanks to exp being rewarded based on both objectives and how many players survived it was very good at rewarding you based on how well you did in the mission, especially with challenges acting as supplemental rewards to encourage variety without feeling like the only way of leveling up.
It's somewhat emblematic of payday 3's overcorrection of payday 2's mistakes that challenges are so heavily encouraged after being absent in payday 2.
Was Payday: The Heist's level up system that grindy before overdrill?
I started playing Payday: The Heist very late in it's lifecycle and spamming overdrill was a pretty quick way to level up fast
@@existence3585 it doesn't have enough content to warrant the grind even in the case of someone who isn't familiar with the game series, I'd wager that of you played each heist on 145 difficulty 5 times (45 runs) you wouldn't be able to level up from 145 to 193, which is absolutely insane to me
6:00 I noticed the same lighting phenomenon with Turbid Station. Some areas are dark and others are incredibly bright and going from one to the other is blinding. I don't know if it's some "rEaLiStIc pupil dilation" effect they were going for but it is supremely obnoxious.
same, I noticed it on Turbid too, but it was less pronounced imo. if this is how it's going to be moving forward it's gonna suck
you can use emc in stealth by placing emc and not needint to turn it on you can turn foo a cam and leater you can pick it back the emc
I have a question do you think people will be back when there will be enough content like if they add +20 heist ?
I've mentioned this in other videos before, but I don't think content is the only issue. Direction of gameplay and skills, satisfying and fair leveling and progression, and actually implementing changes that aren't just "here's a low effort challenge screen in your menu" are needed before adding content
Good to know that the answer is a straight up no.
I'll admit I haven't been keeping too much of an eye on PD3 after the horrible release, but I am genuinely shocked this was paid DLC.
I don't mean that in a 'you can't monetize your work' way but a 'the game is still floundering and you want to charge people first' way. There seems to be so many core issues that need to be fixed before charging (IMO wayyy too much for what you get) money for DLC.
hard agree, asking for money now feels very greedy, but at the same time they dug this hole themselves. they had a whole year planned of pre-release dlc announced. so you either do it and get shit for it, or don't and get shit for it. either way, the asking price just ruins it even more
My biggest issue with the DLC isn't the DLC itself. It's that as a normal edition user I can't buy the season pass without rebuying the game.
Everyone knows buying the DLC individually is a suckers move because the whole point of a DLC pass/bundle is to get everything cheaper by buying in bulk.
I've already decided I want the DLC, just need the pass so I can get the DLC the best way. And because there's no FOMO at the moment, I can easily wait it out.
Not like there's a shortage of competition to play in the meantime.
Take the time to realize overkill/starbreeze are no longer worth supporting
you should try one armed robber. it's like payday, but one armed, and just released a few days ago. it's free, has a few heists and weapons, attachments and loud/stealth.
I thought this was a new update, not a DLC. DLC already? There's been like a singular actual update.
i would use the Shotgun if you could change the ammo type to Armor penn rounds or something like in PD2
I really hope someone mods the nerd emoji mask to payday 2
That mod that makes all the cops eyes glow must be helpful getting headshots.
so decent heist and p2w weapons, got it
When I started the video I was like, are the police combine? And I was shocked
the price is the only issue i have with it, besides that, i fucking love it
wait, this dlc is not included in gold edition or i missed when u mentioned it?
By the way, the whole game is not worth it, not to mention the dlc u showed us here, i made a mistake getting gold edition and playing only 2hours maybe, while i spent more than 2k hours in pd2 and still play it sometimes.They went from good game (PDTH) to great game (PD2) to shit game (PD3) and i wont buy anything from now on from them.
Nice video as always man.
FYI, no one ever uses that "lobby chat" since it's hidden by default
another mind boggling decision by them…don’t forget the lobby chat also can’t even be seen by players already in the game either..its like the devs don’t even play video games
Yeah I quit right before this video. I got curious and Im now convinced I made the right choice
They should’ve made the heist free to make up for the disaster of a launch this game had but instead they double the price compared to pd2 dlc and give the few people that are left playing this game the finger. The dlc is garbage too! They’ve totally lost thier minds.
Hey all your mods work for me except the starry night gloves, crashes my game on startup. Any advice?
sorry, I have no clue. I know places that talk about modding have some people that might be able to help if you share your crash logs
I like how they keep making the game more and more hostile to solo players despite how low the player count is now -_- and randoms aren’t even a option as most of the people left that you can get matched up with are more aggravating to play with then the base ai
I've always wondered whats the name of the song that was played in the intro of the video...
II really don't care about the heist. I only bought the weapons not the entire thing.
charging for dlc after that launch is disgraceful. what happened to video games man
games and game companies realized how much money could be made. now only a few are actually passionate about bringing a good product. people need to be reminded that these companies are not your friends
@@GeneralMcBadass you are spot on. Best thing I did game wise was geting a pre built pc that is made for games south of 2016. So many great game son my pc now that aren't broken or dlc or battlepass heavy.
With the game still in its current state. Im honestly surprised they have the nerve to charge for it
I just realized in the first 5 second of the video, the cars are glitching in the trailer due to connection problems lol
Still waiting for the patapon series to come back.
The current winter sale on steam making payday 3 gold edition for rooughly 70 dollars made it tempting to buy it. The value seems worth it for the possible content.
Why i still wont buy it and my problem is that buying this game is not owning this game until i can play with friends or solo without ever needing to connect to a server. Payday 2 it is still.
90 Brazilian Reais for this DLC? BRUH I'll wait two years.
Cool shotgun and Robot Mask, though.
Ayane is a support. You should have brought WhiteChild.
Is it just me or is this heist look like a Halo 5 forge map? The lighting may be a big culprit but to me the whole thing has that 'synthetic' early Xbox One era look.
I agree, this sniper rifle is the most balanced weapon or just makes weapon pack balanced. You get OP submaschine gun, and an OK shotgun and GARBAGE sniper rifle. Really, playing with it on overkill difficulty makes you do same dmg as bot. 5-6 body shots to kill! WITH SNIPER RIFLE!! I would rather use basic SA144 or something sniper rifle, it's so much better.
I like the DLC nevertheless.
Does only 1 person need to buy the DLC and can invite other people without the DLC (sorry for bad english)
Yeah its not great... I love the soundtrack, I like what the techie does on paper, but in practice, it needs tweeks. We need more QOL improvements to the game to bring it to the high standard Payday 2 still has, despite being on a worse engine. I think we can all agree we see the potential, the steps being taken aren't the right ones, and overkill needs to try something else. The heist is cool, but we need the game to offer more than what we ended up actually getting
Nice, so the game is not even fully finished on release but we have DLCs? Is it to "support" the dev team again?
Call me a hater or whatever but the ONE reason I despise this heist is the new Techy. Once they come in it makes the heist unfathomably unenjoyable. It's just constant "where the fuck am I being shot at from?" and I honestly hate that. It really worries me that they will soon be on every map.. Yikes. Not a good enemy. Why not bring back the medics? I thought that was a cool new addition they added in PD2 and they just removed them.
I wish Starbreeze would add new guns to fill niches that were previously untapped, instead of them just being *better* than the alternatives, that's not how you're supposed to balance a game.
Do you all players have to have the DLC to play the match?
Give the game like 2-3 years to cook then come back to it
It’s dumb we have to wait 2-3 years to get a value we should’ve had at launch.
Will the devs give it that much time if the players won't?
Oh, of course there's that guy. One who told us trust me bro. Trust me wait long ass time. I dont give a shit if it broken now i dont care if they fuck up the game. Wait your damn ass there they will fix a game that should been fun and playable from get go and learn what made last game better.
@@evandaymon8303 I share the sentiment and eyeroll those people, but pretty sure he was joking lol. If he's not . . .
The old players since pdth and the pd2 beta warned everyone, that ovk is just going to double down after they decided to attract more cs:go kids with the saves. Only pulling the keys being paid items after enough backlash AND after they made enough money. It was really quiet for a while after the initial uproar. They just waited it out yo squeeze more money out of gambling afdicts. Then the copius amounts of low effort dlc. Then ultimately just glove skins and weapon colours ala cs:go and COD. Thus completely replacing the userbase. Sonce most sensible players moved on. Now que pd3, they haven't learned from the 2015 disaster. Failing to churn out 2 games Raid Ww2 or Overkill's walking dead . Both are dead and abandoned. I hope ovk/ Starbreeze finally goes bankrupt for good. They ruined two companies already by gross mismanagement incompetence abd greed. Let's hope another company thst actually loves the heist genre picks it up snd does it better. Like swat4 being faithfully recreated by void entertainment as Ready or not and Swat tactical stories by a different company.
Pay Day 3 is in all Points better than Pay Day 2

General what is the song?
I'd recommend the weapons pack. Ignore the marksman rifle though. The guns feel like peashooters as they are, nobody needs a rifle designed to require multiple fucking headshots.
6:36 you mean cut content from an unfinished release.
whats the song at 16min ? i love prog rock
Itll be a free monthly game by February
Ah yes, the combine...
Its worth it if someone else buys it for you. God bless my manager from my job. The smg and shotgun I enjoy a lot.
it seems like we have to wait like 5 years to payday 3 to actually be a good game i regret buying these i could have buyed food
I love how there's DLC 3 months after this game came out flopping like a fish. There's no shame in the gaming industry these days.
Idc what people say I’m talking especially this comment section. The game runs well, problem is you lot are spoilt and expect games to be perfect!
This should get hauled off the shelves like Cyberpunk, worse than 2042 on release
Good thing I'm broke anyways can't and won't waste the money got about 150+ hours under my belt already game needs to improve bad
They're already doing paid dlc? Bruh
With my state tax itll be 20 bucks, and im not about to spend 10 bucks on just one map that is bull shi.
Wow, a DLC for an unfinished game. How nice.
For Payday 2 they deliberately released overpowered weapon DLCs. Once they raked in most of our cash, they would nerf the weapons back into the stone age. I'm not expecting anything different for Payday 3.
It’s a good heist! But I cannot suggest buying it to anybody. The price is a scam and a half.
I like the direction payday 3 is headed in for the most part (minus the whole armor debacle) and even I say the heist isnt worth it. Yeah its not nearly as bad as how predatory most game studios have become these days but the price point is still predatory that its priced that way so they can inevitably milk people for the gold edition when the upgrade drops around DLC 2-3
I wonder when the obligatory "skin shop" will come out with 10 dollar suits that turn you into a giant banana
Considering how cult Payday 2 was...I am a bit lost for words that so much stuff is not improved, but regressed in some ways.
It's same devs, they should know better.
The entire DLC pack almost cost as half as much as the base game, the base game is still a disaster. I'm now glad PD3 flopped, Overkill, or more likely Starbreeze, have gone completely of their minds. Their venture into turning Payday in a live-service game completely backfired, they deserved this failure.
hope killing floor 3 wont end up like this
the loud final stand, being in the open, I love game play like that. I can see why some don't and I can see why it's annoying but I find it fun.
Your video teaches me that people can make something good out of a pile of shit.
Thank you for your effort
my review of the syntax error dlc!!!!
im sad
Day 93 of me being glad I didn't spend $90. I was stoked for this game and it's just sad.
😂I know it's shit isn't it.
I like how SCRY Digital is pronounced phonetically by everyone while I look at it and think SCaRY Digital because it makes the social commentary on tech companies comically less subtle.
0:15 my informed purchase is to buy another game. Thanks
That stupid unit needs to stay just in this mission , in other missions its just stupid , make no sense
if you’re getting the game to play long term, get the silver edition to get the dlc’s
What a genius
To me it’s such a spit in the face the fact that they release an unfinished game and now are charging us like 20$ for this is a joke
So the game is still broken, has only a handful of missions, and they release DLC with ONE single mission and CHARGE for it?? Are they kidding??
They don't deserve your attention. Leave these ungrateful people and come back in like 5 years or something.
I'm more interested in whatever else you are playing.
Honestly give me anything but this, please.
haha, I had one more planned for christmas, but after that I'm dedicating myself to anything else until the next "update" comes along
@@GeneralMcBadass Don't get your hopes up.
Don't even think about this game at all if you don't want to lose your mind over everything
Hi
Is it just me or does it feel extremely scammy, to have bought this game at release for full price at the state that the game was and is and now being asked more monney for paid dlc
I definitely dont thinks it worth the money. But im paying full price without season pass because i wanna see this game succeed as a console heister. Payday 3 has so much potential but if your not willing to almost donate your money to hope to see change dont buy it
Man, this is so disappointing. Love ya gen, I hope you can escape the Payday purgatory someday.
Weapons are great but that map looks awful....i just bought the weapons and outfit

ONE HEIST?! Lmfao. Hell even Crime Boss is giving better post launch content.... their $10 DLC came with like 3 heists and a storyline. And every heist map in that game is really several maps since every time you load it its different. Like the fkin architecture changes on most of them... this is sad what has become of payday.
