Starbreeze offers a deep dive into PAYDAY 3's heist mechanics

Organizing a heist in PAYDAY 3 is definitely more complex than it was in PAYDAY 2. Not only the new game features many more options and possible interactions, but Starbreze Studios has focused on making every experience different. Whether you try to break in and complete the job while in stealth or things take a turn for the worse and you end up having to take some hostages, the PAYDAY 3 will require you to adapt and coordinate your strategy as a team on the fly if you want to escape unscathed.

You need a solid plan

In PAYDAY 3, you will have to deal with new security measures but you will also have some room to wiggle if you are caught in an area where you shouldn't be. Depending on the security level, you may just be escorted out. Of course, if you don your mask and point a gun at someone's head that option is out of the equation, but not all the team needs to go incognito at the same time, and you will discover several ways of taking advantage of this situation during a heist. A good example is shown in the latest video published by the developer studio, which offers you a detailed introduction to some of the mechanics in PAYDAY 3.

PAYDAY 3 features many novelties in terms of gameplay and it will offer a fresh experience to the fans of the series. They will have to devise new strategies for their heists, especially if they want to use stealth which will surely feel quite rewarding if you manage to rob a lot of money and escape undetected. As usual, you can always kick a door down and enter guns blazing, but the odds will probably be against you if you give the police enough time to react.

The game aims to become a breath of fresh air for the fans of the genre while maintaining the character and all the awesome features that made its predecessor a big hit.
