Desync Beta is live

The long awaited Desync Beta went live today! Together with the new network model we deliver lot’s of new animations and improvements that will bring PAYDAY 2 to the next level. Grab your bags, put on your masks and gather your friends to experience the new PAYDAY 2. For a full list of the changes, please check the Changelog at the bottom.

LuaJIT Update – Mod Talk

Lua mods using the BLT will not work in the beta. The update to LuaJIT means that the BLT can no longer hook into the game, so your mods will not load. We have done this to mainly improve the games performance, but also to make sure that we are getting no interference in the form of bugs or crashes caused by mods. If the BLT is updated to support LuaJIT while the beta is running, we ask you not to report bugs if you decide to use mods.
Your game should run with no problems if you have the BLT installed, but if you experience crashing or infinite loading when starting the game, you may want to remove IPHLPAPI.dll from your game files for the time being.

Stay tuned,
