360 controller support on PC seems excellent so far. They even added an option for aim assist, which is a HUGE positive.

For controller users, remember to turn off "hold to run". Also, turn off Depth of Field in video settings.

Only thing I dislike is the trigger deadzones, especially for firing a weapon.

edit: is it just me or does the aim assist do nothing? hmm.

I only got the overscan issue during the beta when I played it on my TV. It was fine on my Dell monitor despite having the same resolution.

How do you text chat if you play with a controller?

me and 2 others are looking for someone to do some stealth runs this afternoon, in about 2-3 hours. We will be grinding some missions to level up (we can do jewellery overkill in 1m and nightclub overkill stealth in about 10) which means we can get money and level quick. Then we are going to attempt to do stealth runs of the bank and new missions which we havent quite cracked yet.

If this interests anyone you can pm me here or add me via the payday 2 neogaf group (zombie monkey)

If you havent tried stealth runs they are very fun, but there is alot of failing to work out optimal routes and timings so patience is key!

Oh jesus, this is a problem? I just looked to see if there was an FOV adjustment option and then bought it. I never even thought they would let you change it but not enough. What was the previous max?

Not sure but it was more than enough in the beta. Well, may not more than enough but much better.
 
Grr @ hosts that end the room before the Payday cards are chosen

Edit: actually, they're probably crashes now that I think about it.

Ya the FOV seems fine. I get ill VERY easily during games and neither version seemed bad.

Good deal, nice review by the way. It's a real shame that I have to check Steam forums and Google for information on FOV, shaky camera effect *fuck you Tomb Raider*, FPS caps, and about 15 other miserable problems before I buy a game. Maybe that's my niche on YouTube, I'll start doing reviews for the persnickety, uptight, prone-to-motion-sickness gamers out there.
 
Did they add a numerical value to the FOV slider?

That was a bit annoying to adjust in the beta. You just had to keep exiting the menu to check it

Thanks I appreciate it.

Ya there used to be a website that was JUST for FOV's in games. But I can't find it anymore. It makes me sick as a dog many times.
Many shooters on the consoles can cause that at times.

To those using the 360 pad on PC, is it just me or does the aim assist option do absolutely nothing? Seems to be a bug.

Checked the integrity of the game cache, and 44 files were not validated and now there is a 2gb download...


Still hyped though!!

If you don't already have me, add me on Steam my id is Kurdel.

In the Beta the aim snapped to targets really accurately when using the left trigger.

To the point where it is broken for me, when I can accurately shoot a dude on a roof from a block away with the Uzi.

Playing mostly on PC with neogaffers now. Though I did do a bit this morning on the 360.

Fair enough. I was hoping to hear some more on the job similies:

"Man, we busted more vaults than a 30 hour Fallout session."

...What?

...well, I never said mine would be any good. Gawd.

For people who might have wanted to gameshare/go in on half on the ps3 ver with a friend...

No more than one activated PS3 system within a 24 hour period. Content may not be used by any other account. You must sign in to PSN each time you start the game.
 
Same wtf.

I'll call some targets/walmarts and keep checking

Yep seems most stores are not getting this for a few more days or so. Even online it's not showing up on gamestop and amazon shows a week to ship or more. Way to get your product out there and in the hands of people waiting....launch day is supposed to be launch day right? :p

Really wish that FOV slider had a number associated with it... right now its a little much all the way up. Right before the text starts seems fine, maybe a little tight. I usually just set it to 90 and go!
