PAYDAY 2 Matchmaking & Crude Awakening Heist Delay
Were writing this to address your feedback and the state of the game following update 237. Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to report bugs and leave feedback, it might sound strange given the nature of the feedback in this case, but we really do rely on and appreciate it. We are very sorry for all the issues youve had to endure. We did everything we could think of to make the process as unnoticeable as possible, but didnt reach all the way. We tested everything we could think of and really did put in hours trying to figure out how to best implement the update without any negative side effects. Needless to say, we missed the mark in a few key areas. Below, well go through the big-ticket items. What we intend to fix as well as share information on what we didnt explain properly the first time. We want to do right by our players, you deserve as much. Matchmaking Matchmaking is facing a combination of problems that we are trying to fix. It is difficult to tackle them all at once. Were going to need to iterate to get this right, meaning there will be a series of smaller updates taking care of the matchmaking issues one step at a time. During this time, well rely on your feedback to make sure were moving in the right direction. We are committed to fixing the matchmaking issues for all players. The complexity of the issue we need to ensure its working properly however, so were not ready to commit to any date for when the fix will be in place. Data sharing We know a lot of you are rightly concerned about your data and who gets it, we hope we can reassure you that nothing nefarious is happening. To make sure were accurate, we confirmed the following with our programmers. In summary, the only data that gets sent to the matchmaking service is your public Steam ID. No other company not specifically mentioned in our terms of service gets access to your data in any way if you play via Steam, theres no data beyond your public Steam ID being sent outside of the Steam environment. In fact, one of the reasons matchmaking isnt functioning as youre used to is that we dont even share basic location information. Going forward we will be including what country you are matchmaking from in order to ensure a better matchmaking ping for everyone. Linux Linux is a complicated beast. To get the game working on both native Linux and at the same time updating the older version of the diesel engine that PAYDAY 2 for Linux was using proved unfeasible. This was one of the things we spent the most time trying to solve, yet didnt reach our goals in the end. Linux players can still access the game using Proton, well keep testing new updates with Proton to make sure it keeps working for the upcoming patches and releases. Crude Awakening Heist Delay Lastly, to give us more time to focus on the above-mentioned solutions, were delaying the upcoming heist release by a week, from June 20th until June 27th. This will give us more time to implement a few of the matchmaking fixes before the heist is out and you need to start finding games for it. OVERKILL_Tobias

PAYDAY 2 is an action-packed, four-player co-op shooter that once again lets gamers don the masks of the original PAYDAY crew - Dallas, Hoxton, Wolf and Chains - as they descend on Washington DC for an epic crime spree.
The CRIMENET network offers a huge range of dynamic contracts, and players are free to choose anything from small-time convenience store hits or kidnappings, to big league cyber-crime or emptying out major bank vaults for that epic PAYDAY. While in DC, why not participate in the local community, and run a few political errands?
Up to four friends co-operate on the hits, and as the crew progresses the jobs become bigger, better and more rewarding. Along with earning more money and becoming a legendary criminal comes a character customization and crafting system that lets crews build and customize their own guns and gear.

Key Features
- Rob Banks, Get Paid – Players must choose their crew carefully, because when the job goes down they will need the right mix of skills on their side.
- CRIMENET – The dynamic contract database lets gamers pick and choose from available jobs by connecting with local contacts such as Vlad the Ukrainian, shady politician "The Elephant", and South American drug trafficker Hector, all with their own agenda and best interests in mind.
- PAYDAY Gunplay and Mechanics on a New Level – Firing weapons and zip tying civilians never felt so good.
- Dynamic Scenarios – No heist ever plays out the same way twice. Every single scenario has random geometry or even rare events.
- Choose Your Skills – As players progress they can invest in any of five special Skill Trees: Mastermind, Enforcer, Ghost, Technician and Fugitive. Each features a deep customization tree of associated skills and equipment to master, and they can be mixed and matched to create the ultimate heister.
- More Masks than Ever – PAYDAY 2 features a completely new mask system, giving players the ability to craft their own unique mask with a pattern and color of their choice, resulting in millions of different combinations.
- Weapons and Modifications – A brand new arsenal for the serious heister, covering everything from sniper and assault rifles to compact PDWs and SMGs. Once you've settled for a favorite, you can modify it with optics, suppressors, fore grips, reticles, barrels, frames, stocks and more, all of which will affect the performance of your weapon. There are also purely aesthetic enhancements - why not go for the drug lord look with polished walnut grips for your nine?
- Play It Your Way – Each job allows for multiple approaches, such as slow and stealthy ambushes or running in guns blazing. Hit the target any way you want, each approach will provide a different experience.
- A Long History of Additional Content – More than 70 updates since release, including new heists, characters, weapons and other gameplay features like driving cars and forklifts.
