Been seeing a few comments like "Just make all armor Shield type" and like. Congrats, your reaction to being given the freedom to play the game like PD2 with a system that evolves off of PD3's current system to give you that freedom is to say "No. Everyone must be forced to play the game like it's the other thing."
It looks like a good system, even if the numbers blatantly are going to need a tweak. But they said that, and at least getting the basic idea across, these numbers are fine for that purpose. Personally, I probably lean towards one of three setups at the moment. My 4-chunk-armor will replace the lowest chunk with either adaptive or shield (depending if I have/keep the skill where I can repair the lowest chunk with a repair kit and get them easily as well), or a shield+adaptive armor for cases where I want something light and relying on utility items more (e.g. stealth). I don't think a 1-chunk-armor is going to get too much use outside of maybe my adrenaline build. I also expect to see a lot of people who right now say they'll go with shield-only armor to quickly toss in a few armor items into a few slots, realizing that the existing armor system was not as bad as they first said - especially when they can still have some regeneration going.
With hardy it should be noted Shield takes the longest to regen with the numbers given minimum of 3 seconds meaning if functioning as is now you will still be vulnerable for at least a second, it could also be that shield doesn't activate Hardy as the skill demands the armour break while it's possible that losing Shield doesn't count as breaking, you if all your chunks are shield Hardy might be useless i dunno, could work either way i think
I just want them to add a qol that allows us to change the menu music and give us a legacy music pack for free that has Payday 2 most played tracks or most favorite

I love this system. It'll let the player personalize their armor so much more. The passives need work though.

1:26 I get what you mean but that's basically blitzkrieg bop from anarchist making a return and it was one of the most popular and fun things to run
The 3 plate passive is incredible especially for ping builds

I kinda hope they drop the shield type early for some public testing
Payday is back
This is a great addition! Too bad my wife left me and I had to sell my PC to pay alimony. Sad times.
Have they ever announced anything this ahead of time before? I hope they do this more often, more things to be excited for
Don't believe so, I think the furthest ahead we've seen is a few weeks, definitely not months in advance
What build do you run?
👍
Pls don't sod it up.
tf does "don't sod it up" mean 😭😭
