PAYDAY2: Update 170 and VR Beta 1.6 Posted: 11 Jan 2018 08:26 AM PST ​ ​ New Year, More Heisting! We are back again after the holidays and new year celebrations. We ended last year with a bang and we start the new year with a crimewave over Washington. Four more levels gets added to the Crime Spree to further expand the roster of levels available to you. Attention: As new levels are added to the rotation any active Crime Sprees will be reset. You pay continental coins to start again from the same level or claim your reward and start over. We are also continuing the tweaks we started last year. This time the focus is Special Weapons, Sniper Rifles and some other weapons. The Swan Song skill has also been adjusted. VR Beta For VR beta we have improved the Inventory Belt customization. You can now set the location of the boxes and further improve your experience in the game and improve your heisting capabilities. At the same time we looked over the fadeout system when your head collides with a wall or ceiling. You now have more options to define how you want the game to react. Last but not least we added a new red dot shader to all non-zoomed red dot sights. This should further increase the realism when you make the helmets fly. This does not affect zoomed sights. You can find a complete list below in the change log. Special Weapons and Swan Song tweaks The Rocket Launchers and the Thanatos were originally designed to be the best weapons for dispatching bulldozers. Recently we feel like they have not been competitive enough to compensate for the drawbacks they bring with them. For this reason we are raising their damage to reduce how many shots they need to kill Bulldozers. While we like the way Swan Song works, it is often viewed as a mandatory skill for the One Down difficulty due to how strong of a counter it is to the one down mechanic. With the reduced duration the player will have to work harder to make the most out of the skill. To a new heisting year of loot and gunfire. OVERKILL_Tobias OVERKILL - a Starbreeze Studio.
