Ana sayfa / Games

Payday 3 is a cooperative first-person shooter video game developed by Overkill Software and published by 505 Games. The game is a sequel to 2011’s Payday: The Heist and receives constant updates. A while ago a new patch launched, which is pretty extensive. Let’s dive deep into the Payday 3 1.1.4 update patch notes.

Payday 3 Update 1.1.4 Patch Notes

NEW ADDITIONS

• Infamy Points replacing challenges
  • This feature has been described in its very own blog post. It replaces the previous challenges with a more traditional leveling system.
  • For now, we left the menu in place and untouched. We’re still deciding whether to reuse or remove it.
• 6 rotating loud modifiers
  • In an effort to address the community’s feedback on difficulty, we’re starting by adding some loud modifiers. These are meant to add difficulty and promote a change in playstyle without just giving enemies more HP. For details, we devoted a blog post to this topic.
  • NEW: Federal Negotiator – Players can’t leave custody without hostage trades. Getting a player out of custody costs 1 hostage, plus 1 additional hostage for each time they’ve been in custody or have killed a civilian.
  • NEW: Combat Duo – Up to two instances of each special can spawn, and the special cap is raised by 1. Techies and Cloakers will not spawn as duos. Though we intend to bring in dual Cloakers in a future update.
  • NEW: Crippling Tactics – Players disabled by Zappers and Cloakers, damaged by Nader gas, or hit by Shield and Dozer melee attacks will lose any stack of EDGE, GRIT and RUSH.
  • NEW: Armor-piercing Rounds – 5% of damage Law Enforcement deals to armor is also applied to health.
  • NEW: Alpha Team – Regular SWAT units are replaced with Heavy SWAT.
  • NEW: Tactical Flashlights – Shields come equipped with a light that can blind players.
• 2 new rotating stealth modifiers
  • Mentioned in the same blog post as the loud modifiers. We’re also adding two new stealth modifiers to ensure that stealth doesn’t fall behind on difficulty.
  • NEW: AI Surveillance – The security room guard is removed, and cameras cannot be shut off from the security room.
  • NEW: Threat Detection – Cameras detect players in public and private areas as if they were masked on.
• Assassin skill line
  • Do you like silencers, sneaking, and skulduggery? Us too! To that end, we’re adding the Assassin skill line. Great utility in both stealth and loud, the line focuses on silencers, marking and efficient take-downs. This one also has its own blog post.
• Mask of the Week
  • This feature puts fancy new masks on sale at a vastly discounted price, the masks will rotate twice and then be made available through the regular mask vendor. This one also has a blog post, whew, we’ve really been staying on top of these haven’t we?
  • To reiterate what we previously mentioned here, the Daily Activities feature should have been released alongside the masks, but was delayed due to technical issues.
  • To make up for the lack of extra c-stacks the Daily Activities would have provided, we lowered the cost of the masks from 200 to 100 c-stacks.
  • Once the Daily Activities are in the game, the Mask of the Week sale price will be 200 c-stacks, followed by 400 c-stacks when at the vendor.
  • Thanks to heisters like you voting in our recent poll, the first Mask of the Week will be… Waifu! While the Mask of the Week normally rotates weekly, as this is our first Mask, you’ll have a week and a half to get your hands on it!
• 3 spray paint patterns with 10 variations each added to the pool of level-up rewards
  • Since we’re hoping to see more people leveling up using the new progression system. We’ve added rewards to the level-up pool to fill it out and ensure there’s something to claim. These are consumable but can drop several times.
• Added Enemy “Techie” to all Loud heists
  • The Techie roll-out, as we’re calling it in the studio, this high-tech enemy will now start appearing in all heists. She’ll appear less often in other heists, further away from her home in Syntax Error. For those worried about that loud modifier that doubles specials – not to worry; the Techie was intentionally not included. We don’t want to blot out the sun with drones… yet.
  • The Techie has upped her game, as she was deployed to crime scenes all across the city. She will now deploy the ‘Tactical Drone,’ which will harass players with its powerful flash, removing all active buffs from the affected players.
  • Additionally, the Techie can now counter-hack any turrets the player leaves unguarded. Your days as the only hacker on the battlefield are over!
  • To help against this new threat, Shade will help players or Normal and Hard by marking the Techie, making it easier to spot.
