Sorry, I had to

simple, do games w Payday 3 players endure second consecutive day of server issues, preventing them from playing

I mean this is pretty much par for the course for any online game launch. Hey, at least some people will stop buying early access so eagerly.

They had three days of load testing and the infrastructure still failed on launch.

Sounds like the devs knew it wouldn’t work but management insisted on launching anyways.

vsh,

Meanwhile Larian (BG3 devs) held the newest patch for one additional day to test it out and make sure it works properly. You really see the difference.

P2P and player-owned dedicated servers need to come back. This “everything runs on the cloud” stuff is so bad on so many levels.

It also means players get rugpulled whenever the suits decide the game is no longer worth maintaining.

Exactly. I wonder if it’s possible to make a commercial game that’s fully decentralized. Sell the licenses as NFTs, use activitypub for the masterserver so you just toot out your games, release the game and dedicated server as free binaries. I hate NFTs but they’d be more consumer-rights friendly than the current approach of steam owns everything.

mindbleach,

Seriously, it’s a four-player game. Not some MMO clusterfuck. Not an arena shooter bragging about 128 codblops on a single map, like it’s Stand On Nuketown. You need matchmaking - you want anticheat - you’ll do some DRM bullshit. Other than that you should want to offload bandwidth and latency to your players. They’re all on the same team!

Yeah Day 1 was completely unplayable for our 4 man group. Like we don’t need matchmaking we’re in a party just roll a server up and go.

Seems fine now since last night, had no issues getting games going.

SnakeRattleNRoll,

I envy you - was able to play a few matches shortly after release with friends, and havent been able to find a match since.

Solo, with friends, public - doesnt matter, just sits and searches for upwards of 30 minutes before i opt for something else.

GreenMario,

I went to work but apparently some of my friends are still struggling to get into games so it’s not fixed yet, we just have caught a downtime period I guess.

ollie, do gaming w Payday 3 players endure second consecutive day of server issues, preventing them from playing

if only there was a way where… the game could be offline play-able… with a bonus of being free…

maybe, idk, don’t require servers for every aspect of your game

Pseu,

Does Payday have a singleplayer mode? I thought it was a multiplayer game.

I know payday 2 at least you could play it with yourself and 3 bots

Callie,
@Callie@pawb.social avatar

yeah, it had solo. you’d case the area by yourself while 3 bots stayed behind, until alarms triggered. you could also configure who the bots were and what their loadout was

It does, but as far as I know PD3 still requires an online connection for single player. I've read issues of people lagging in single player, that's crazy.

DoucheBagMcSwag,

But how could they have it as another over monetized live service then?

Callie,
@Callie@pawb.social avatar

same way they monetized Payday 2 since it was already pretty live-service-esque in it’s monetization, at least on PC. if they wanted to, they could have just added a battlepass with limited cosmetics alongside the steam marketplace cosmetics of Payday 2

smeg, do games w Diablo's Lilith and supervillain Skeletor will be playable in Call of Duty

Isn’t CoD supposed to be the “realistic shooter”? Things have changed a bit since I was fighting in WW2 a decade ago…

geosoco,

They've run out of scenarios, but the brand must go on.

They forgot to milk Crash Bandicoot and Tony Hawk here.
What a boring soulless corporate grab.

They so desperately want to be Fortnite.

Alucard from the manga series Hellsing

… oh, there is a scenario less appropriate than Superman in a fighting game.

Not a fan of turn based combat in the Yakuza series. I guess I would just watch gameplay for the story. Wish an option to change combat style be implemented.

Blizzard,

Shame it’s not a happy ending.
