To tell truth, I don't really give much hope in Steam Sales. Last year sales were mostly a repeat of sales in a year, with just few oldies getting bigger hit (from 66 to 75, or from 75 to even more) and some new ones getting first or second sales...

On the other hand, Tony from Amazon said "we'll have PayDay 2 for even $7,50 per copy", so maybe Valve will want to have same deal too?

I'm fairly certain that deals are arranged between both the devs and the retailer, so unless Payday's devs have something against Valve, it should be roughly the same price in both sales. Then again, Metro LL was cheaper on Amazon and Steam than it was on GamersGate :P

Well, Steam now-a-days has (one of the) worst deals around. Outside of Russia and cards-to-Steam-Wallet, there's nothing that makes me want to buy straight from Valve - for example Amazon has prices in $ instead of Euro while GMG has additional -20% vouchers.

And to make Steam look worse :) , Amazon just started their PayPal deal - one game for a bit less than $10 - that's nearly 50% less than what it costs on Steam (edit: they deleted it, but it's coming SOON anyway :P).

Idk if it would hit anything more than a 40% sale but yea it's an amazing game to play with friends.

Out of the 6 friends I have who own it, I haven't seen any of them play it once since 3 days after it launched. If you like super repetitive games with fairly weak mechanics, it may be worth it, but I think you're right to wait for a real sale (75% or more).

If you have friends, definitely get it (for them too). It's really fun with friends. But as others have said a sale will probably soon.

If you don't have friends the game is not as good.

No, I was dissapointed. Weak repetitive, unlocked everything I wanted in roughly 5 hours.

Yeah, although the first payday was a bit more meaty with the games.

I've never played any of paydays. Is the second one some kind of major improvement compared to the first? I mean, is the first one worth playing (regardless of any discounts) at all, since there is payday 2 released?

I'm wondering the same

There isn't much of a story so it doesn't matter which one you play first. The second one is more fine tuned and better. The game is pretty realistic with the guns. You don't carry around over 300 rounds. You can carry like 3-4 mags or less and recoil is there. The game is great.

Still, I'm considering whether to buy Payday 1 4-pack on discount or not. I'm pretty happy with the discount and wouldn't mind buying it, but I don't want it to turn up being some crap relative to Payday 2, that's the problem. I think it won't go according to the worst scenario though. Let's bring up Borderlands as an example (not to compare it's gameplay or visual appearance to Payday, but let's talk about co-op multiplayer awesomeness). IMO, Borderlands was great, and Borderlands 2 was even better. Can someone say the same about two Paydays?

Payday 1 has the potential to be an extreme co-op game- mainly because at above normal difficulties, if you stay alone and can't shoot for shit, you'll become what the mashed potatoes become during my annual Thanksgiving.
I haven't gotten PD2, but I have played it. PD2... is perhaps more stealth-oriented and has more content, but PD1's meaty guns and secrets seemed much more fun for some reason.

No, it's awful. I don't enjoy that game at all. The times I played was only because my friends wanted me in the team with them and because I felt like I owed the person who gifted me the game. Can just say I'm damn glad it was a gift, so I didn't have to waste my money on that.

Never played it, but judging from the gameplay footage, it didn't impress me in any way. Could be lots of fun with friends though.

I preordered that game for the sake of having been a German Reviewer when it was released and was disappointed beyond comparison by this Game. The First Game was awesome as it is and i had really much fun with it be it alone or with my Friends but the second installment just tried to get the same Hype without doing anything better but some things Worse than ist predecessor. So I personally do not recommend it. (Not even at 60% Discount...75% i might say yes if you are really desperately looking for Multiplayer and already got bored of literally EVERYTHING else.)
