Payday 3 is now out there for all followers to leap into, with full cross-play help so you’ll be able to play with your mates regardless of the place they’re enjoying.
When you may get right into a match, that’s. When Payday 3 launched, issues had been good for a couple of hours earlier than the servers crashed, then went again up, then crashed once more, then up once more, then down, then up, although in an extremely unstable state, and getting right into a recreation is extra of a problem than it ought to be.
Our reviewer for Payday 3 right here at PSU has solely been capable of get into two matches since their code arrived, and whereas Starbreeze is engaged on a repair, it’s not been clear when a full repair will arrive, and plainly issues are solely partially solved.

“Launch has not gone properly.” stated Almir Listo, model director and head of neighborhood at Starbreeze on a reside stream hosted on Monday in response to the problems.
Listo was joined by lead producer Andreas Häll Penninger, with the purpose of attempting to reply participant questions and supply an replace on the problems, and every day the problems aren’t mounted, a reside stream will likely be hosted giving gamers an opportunity to proceed voicing their questions and considerations.
In a weblog put up on Starbreeze’s web site, the studio discusses why the difficulty is going on and why it didn’t come up in any of its earlier testing, and assures gamers that they’re engaged on it and once more apologizes for the issues.
“The problem in query didn’t manifest throughout Technical Betas or Early Entry as a result of specificity of fast consumer inflow and load-balancing. Starbreeze is at the moment evaluating all choices, each short- and long-term.
Within the short-term, this implies Starbreeze’ focus is to make sure the participant expertise. Within the long-term, this implies evaluating a brand new associate for matchmaking companies and making PAYDAY 3 much less depending on on-line companies.”
