Not a chance, I bought the Payday 3 Ultimate Edition and they swapped it with a Legacy Edition because they needed to reneg to pay for this sequel, only to find that it’s nothing more than an update with a name change.
This is graphically Payday2, it doesn’t look like the mechanics are much different either.
i dont know that i agree with your second point, the gunplay looks so much less unpleasant from the trailer they just showed off. payday 2 feels almost like a roblox or browser fps, and 3 looks like a more proper modern game in terms of animation and speed. its a really important aspect of any shooter, hell its 99% of the reason Destiny players stick with that game, similar with call of duty. god knows it isnt the actual game design.
They also switched to Unreal Engine, which might mean less bugginess than Payday 2.
It will be on sale at various prices until release. It may go lower, so no reason to buy now.
It’s a day one Game Pass release, why would I preorder it.
Hell, why would I want to preorder it even if it wasn’t a day one Game Pass release.
I’m going to be waiting on this one, especially with no mod support.
Not sure if they even can implement it with cross play.
