Payday 2 starting a subscription to have access to all DLC

I dislike subscriptions in general.
Not different in this case.

Correct me if Im wrong, but could be aruge that since Payday3 did so poorly when it came out with such poor desicion, and made the playerbase appreciate Payday2 more...that now they want to further monetize Payday2; I mean this sucription model adds not obligatory element of life service to Payday2.

"Explore PAYDAY 2's massive content catalog at your own pace, mastering the art of heisting one crime at a time."

What? This sounds like the exact opposite of what this subscription model offers.

"At your own pace" = bought and waiting for you to play when you have time, NOT try to play through all the content before you must pay for another month.

"one crime at a time" well, isn't this what buying the DLC separately gives you? Buy DLC 1, play through it, but DLC 2, etc. NOT pay for access to all at once.

Nonsense.

So basically a Season Pass, but we've got to keep paying... which may as well be buying DLC separately.

A sub for a decade-old online game?lol.Talk about an out of season April Fools joke.Then again,I suppose thats what Starbreeze has been for a while-a joke.

For the amount of DLCs... well, CreamAPI is free

"This will save us! This will save us for sure!" I need what they are smoking.

Does it include removed DLCs?

Damn. I knew Payday 3's launch went bad but I didn't know it went that bad. They must be desperate.

there was a method on github to unlock all dlc's IIRC

So Starbreeze dropped the sub announcement (a couple days after the stealth launch of it,mind you) & it went about as well as one might expect (the roast is real).
Epic fail.

I would like remind you that any DLC going forward (besides the Ethan and Hila Character Pack) for PAYDAY 2 is going to be 100% free. Like we have said in the past we will continue to support PAYDAY 2 with more updates, heists, weapons and other fun stuff.

Almir lied way too many times, we still don't forget crimewave.
Fuck them, don't give them a cent

They've given the game and DLC away or for a dollar so many times this is for people who obviously missed the boat or don't know any better.

Step 1: release a game and sell it for pennies, bonus points for making it f2p
Step 2: release a shitload of DLCs to the point that it's unmanageable
Step 3: realize people are not going to buy a shitload of DLCs just for the sake of it
Step 4: we still want your money so here's a "subscription"; see, just like netflix, pay up!

I wonder how it's working out for paradox with CK2 and EU4...

i hope they go bankrupt for real
also you can unlock all the DLC
