Payday 3

Payday 3 baut das altbekannte Konzept aus, geht dabei aber nicht weit genug, um restlos zu begeistern. Kritik und Lob gehen hier Hand in Hand.

Payday 3 macht einen großen Schritt nach vorne in dem bisher alleinigen Feld der Heist-Simulatoren. Die neuen Stealth-Mechaniken motivieren, das Gameplay wurde verbessert und die Raubüberfälle sind abwechslungsreich. Abstriche gibt es jedoch leider noch beim aktuellen Mangel an Inhalten, der KI und dem allgemeinen Feinschliff.

Payday 3's drastically improved heists allow for a level of freedom that is betrayed by challenge-based progression.

A shallow shooter that doesn't offer anywhere near enough bang for your ill-gotten buck.

Although Payday 3 has plenty of content for replays, I don’t think it has much value for the long haul with its consistent need for an online connection and a reduced mission list. It could get better with the addition of offline mode and the upcoming missions set for the DLC, but it still needs a lot more substance to be a worthy successor of the franchise.

Payday 3's eight heists are as challenging as they are entertaining; the inevitable shootouts with the cops are frantic and fun, and the redefined objectives will make onboarding newer players easier than ever. At long last, Payday has become the Ocean's Eleven/Point Break hybrid its fans have always wanted it to be.
