Payday 2: Crimewave Edition [PS4, XO] The ultimate heist mission!

[Cyan]

The game will run at 1080p, with better framerate than the original on the older consoles, better textures, etc, and it will have some extras for X1 users -Kinect?-.

The link features a very interesting interview with the devs. A sample: :smile2:

Rashid K. Sayed: Can you share tech details about the engine in terms of number of simultaneous light sources, Parallax Occlusion Mapping etc?

Almir Listo: We’d rather keep it a secret for release.

First reviews are in. The reviews are positive overall, and they all mention how fun coop mode is.

4 out of 5 stars

I wonder about the framerate.

Honestly, I never heard of this game.

Is it similar to GTA?

It's a game with totally different gameplay mechanics, where you try to recreate the heist of the century -well, somewhat....- and have tools like a drill, which adds to the tension of getting caught before it gets the job done. You open bulletproof doors, strongboxes, etc, and has an emphasis on coop gameplay. There are several missions like escorting a drunk driver and things like that. You confront SWAT guards with their shields and can hear the sirens nearby and how they are getting close to you which again adds to the feeling of tension.

The game is a port of a game published on the PS3 and X360 a couple of years ago.
