Take a trip down memory lane, and see what memories heisters such as yourself have made during these last 10 years with PAYDAY 2.

My friend told me that there was a minigun in payday… and now I’m addicted to the game. Thanks Abounded!
Antic
I think i first heard about PAYDAY 2 in 2018, but i haven't heard about it so much.
But then, in 2020 i bought it on sale basically because almost my entire friends list had PAYDAY 2. Then, in 2021 i downloaded it because my friend recommended to play it with him. That was a blast, we did like 10 heists on Death Sentence and i really liked it.
And when 2022 hit the calendars, i became a true PAYDAY fan.
Even though i'm rather new here, thank you for everything, heisters and fellow developers at Starbreeze.

Keep those helmets flying!
SeriousSashka
Got into Payday 2 because of a friend. And instantly fell in love with the game. The humor, Gun and build variety, the awesome music that kicks in when things go wrong and you have to start going guns blazing. It's something no other game has been able to recreate for me. Truly a one of a kind game this. I'm super excited for Payday 3.

I remember when I first played Payday 2 on the Xbox 360. I always had an un-imaginable amount of fun playing a game that was always giving tons of action in each heist, and the idea of a game where you can rob banks after banks was a phenomenal concept that had been executed greatly. I fell in love with this game for the past 9 years since I got it. And once I got my hands on the pc version a couple years ago I was so happy to finally have the ability to play with mods and new features, but most importantly to be a part of events like these. Thank you so much for developing this masterpiece that we The Heisters will cherish till the end of time!

Happy Heisting!
RaymondTheJester
Payday 2 was one of the first games i ever played on PC. I still remember my first Heist i played during a free Weekend and grinding through the demo until i bought the full game.
Master503
My friend introduced me to this game to play as a joke, after I recognized the gameplay it was the game I was wanting to remember when I played on the xbox 360, Payday 2, after that I played until I said enough and made people that I probably won't forget early. so thank you Overkill for creating this gem.
Daniel
I remember first playing the Payday 2 demo on the Xbox 360. I distinctly remember the only heist being bank heist and loving the Commando 553 / Gruber Kurtz weapons. I also remember a glitch in the map where you went under the scaffolding on the roof of the bank and it would clip you into the vault every time. Fun times, it was a memory that stuck with me on my journey from 360, to xbone, to PC and across a steam account loss. I will always mark payday as my favorite game. Timeless, as always.

First it was seeing some random videos on my YouTube homepage about the game, then the trailer, then playing it myself years later, to the 10 anniversary -
It's been a ride. It's been an honor.
BredOdd
Tho I haven’t played payday for long I still remember some good times with my friends. I remember the day I played it it was before school and it was early in the morning it was fun even tho I had zero idea what I was doing but I had a good time. So thank you for making a good game and I can’t wait for payday3.
BMR
Been a payday veteran since the launch of Payday 2, love every minute of it, and played it with many friends over the years, still one of my go to games to stream to this day, thank you for making great gaming memories for me Overkill. Also shout out to Dragan, gotta be the best heister to be added, UNLEASH THE DRAGAN
SNIPEorDIE360
Even though I joined the Payday 2 community way later than some people here (4.6.2020). Im glad I did, along with my friends we had a great time playing throughout every heist in the career mode, from trying to kill Buluc to trying to complete every heist solo on DSOD while I was in a hospital. I couldn't have been happier for those memories. It's really weird that I have been with this game for 3 years and yet I have so much good memories with it.

Happy to be a part of the crew. <3

PAYDAY: The Heist was one of the first non-f2p games I played and got instantly hooked to the heisting genre.

When I've heard they were releasing PAYDAY 2 in the summer of 2013 I just immediately had to pre-order it after a long day of high school.

So many friendships being built and genuine moments me and all my friends have experienced over these 10 beautiful years of PAYDAY 2's life. We've seen eachother, the game and the community grow alltogether in these beautiful moments.

May the next 10 years of PAYDAY 3 carry the same heartwarming feelings for us all. 🦊

I remember seeing this game 10 years ago and was so hyped about it but was unable to buy it. A year later, a friend bought the payday 2 4-pack thinking it was with the dlc and handed me a key. Oh boy, I didn't know what I was going into. I'm still playing this game now and met so many new friends across the world. I remember when I first put my mask, my first bank robbed, the first time I cleared shadow raid dw solo. This game changed my life, and will be tatooed on me.
So hyped for PAYDAY 3
Zimex
I remember I used to go all the way around the right side of Diamond Store to get to the camera room.
My very first heist was Art Gallery and almost every time I go infamous and go back to Level 0, I do Art Gallery on Normal in memory of that.
Counterfeit325
I came across Payday 2 in 2020 and I knew that it was the perfect heist simulator! I spent dozens of hours playing the game and ultimately had a great time!
BenTheGamer21
I've been here since 2011, watched the Overdrill get discovered in real time, always logging onto the old Steam Forums every day after coming home to check if there were any new breakthroughs.

All the months of hype in 2013 just before PAYDAY 2 came out were insane back then. Me and my buddies could not stop talking about the game. I still remember my first heist in the pre-order beta - Four Stores on Hard with Full Force Forward blasting through my headphones, synergizing into an orchestra comprised of echoing gunfire and EDM.

It's been a long ten years and PAYDAY 2 has been a major part of them. Hopefully PAYDAY 3 will allow me to feel just as nostalgic in 2033 as I am feeling about PAYDAY 2 and The Heist in 2023. All things considered, this was a good ride.
Kuziz
10 years. 10 years of robbing everything that ain't bolted down, and even then, that too. I remember playing the original PDTH, made friends, which I then played PD2 with, for ages. We eventually drifted apart, new friendships were made, and throughout, Payday 2 was there! From the highs, to the lows, it's one of the games that I returned to more than any other. I'm excited to see what the future with Payday 3 holds!
Fez
I made friends in Payday 2 who live more than 13 000 km away, and this year I finally met them
MrWombat
I remember watching payday 2 on YouTube since 2014 because I couldn't afford it, on 2015 by surprise my dad came out of nowhere with the ps3 version of the game, I was crawling on the roof out of the emotion and since then I played payday 2 until now
ragcloud
i remember when i first got payday 2 in like 2020 (late to the party, i know) my friends and I played Reservoir dogs and were just really confused and lost the whole time but it was a lot of fun! now payday 2 is one of my most played games, i adore the story and cant wait to see where it goes in payday 3 (i pre-ordered gold edition)
Thomas West aka soswer
I think my first encounter with Payday was the infamous "Giant Toothbrush" video from back in the day and seeing how the devs went back and made it even bigger hahaha!
I'd just bought a gaming pc a few months before payday 2 was released so it was the first game I ever pre-ordered on steam and I must say it was worth it, from harvest and trustee's to the white house, helmets have flown and will continue to in Payday 3
Reece
I remember jamming so hard listening to crimefest 2014 while I fought blood, sweat and tears against overkill cops.
Unlucky
Lockdown got us down real hard, but getting this game with some pals help us got through it. Also help me connect with many people around the world. Thanks for the fun game Payday!
GhostGio08
I remember spending 2 hours in deathwish Cook Off, securing a lot of bags. I don't know if it was really the best decision reflecting on it, but it was fun nonetheless!
Devlin H.
Mentioning the "meth" recipe to a classmate, realizing we both play PAYDAY 2, connecting and becoming close friends, being excited every day after school to go home and play PAYDAY 2 together, pushing through Death Wish to get the mask, when it was still the hardest challenge in the game.

I freaking miss those days :(
Raykon
I watched Kknowley's story series on the game and was instantly hooked on the game wanting to kick Murkywater butt. It felt so refreshing just using Sokol for everything, with that red cap and Crimson Comic. Perfection.
Stray Cat
I started playing the game when i was able to download it for free on steam, i remember having so much fun back then until i lost my account. Didn't care much about it because i've been able to actually buy the game and most of the DLCs. Payday is honestly one of my favorite games of all time and i'm glad of where everything is today. I wish everyone happy heisting and remember to keep those helmets flying!!
Springz
My brother was going through some tough times and the only way I could really spend time with him was when he got home and played on his Xbox 360. One day he booted up Payday the Heist and I was hooked! We took turns per heist, hours were lost, love this game but more importantly I got to spend lots of time heisting with my bro, which we still do years later with Payday 2 and soon Payday 3. Thanks Almir and all the developers for so many fun memories.
Tired Swiss
I remember entering the old safehouse and being completely clueless on what to do... Till I found out I had to put money on the lady with the scale... half a year later though! :D
RubberToe
My playstyle finally settled into what I really enjoy during the Piggy event. No sweeter feeling than sprinting down the street in VR with a microgun on your arm, mowing down whole squads as you blitz past them.
Cyanne
During the launch of payday 2 I was sad to see no Cloaker back then I didn’t have access to the internet so I didn’t know when updates were coming out and one day on four stores I’m in the China store and next minute I hear the iconic sound we are used to now I looked behind me and there he was sprinting full force at me I would say I was amazed and happy to see him back but to be honest I was scared out of my mind and scream and what made it better is the line he said was “you wanted me back I’m back” this moment has stayed with me for many years
Hardyoung Pro
After almost 2 hours in big oil I accidentally unlocked Dr Miserable. I just couldn't figure out the puzzle lol
Mr. Bones
I remember back when I lost my mind at Shadow Raid at the Hardest difficulty.
Also spending hours crafting builds for Infamy before 3.0 came out. Lots of procrastinating.
SR
I was still pretty new to the game, playing the Street Escape at night (for what heist I can't remember) with a newly maxed out Sociopath deck, not even knowing about skills, trying to use as few bullets as possible. In between assault waves me and a crew of randos were moving the bags to the escape vehicle when a cloaker randomly spawned in a dark alleyway, lit by a single light post, crawling out of a sewer grate. I completely forgot I was on Mayhem and ran up to him, killed him with a couple blows from the MotherForker, with Jacket saying "I really enjoyed that" as I left the alleyway and went on my way. It was the perfect movie moment, and it'll always stick in my mind as one of my favorite kills I've ever gotten in Payday 2.
LB
I remember how cocky my partner was when it came to fighting the Bulldozers. They would get excited about every opportunity to get one of them... until the first day of Hoxton's Heartswarming, that is.
Not being able to stun Dozer, coupled with their ability to run, made my partner panic everytime they spot that hulking mass rushing their way! Complete switch from predator mentality to prey mentality was jarring to watch at the time!)
P.S. They are much more confident nowadays.
Vantusman
Saw PAYDAY 2 on steam back in early 2016, told my best friend at the time about it and we both went into EB Games to get Steam Gift cards and bought the game together.
Dorpenka
I’ll never forget believing in John Wick at a time when only payday fans were aware of him, which he was hated by at the time. The film proved me right and I’ll always associate the two franchises.
Venomousbeetle
When I finally outran a clocker, I jumped did a quick 180 and used my Judge to put him in his place. I felt I could do anything.
Kyugato
It's been a long journey.
My favorite game of all time.
KanaAroi
This game gave me so many happy moments,but my favourite one was when i beated my first heist in deathwish,i felt so proud,the epic music,the shooting and the danger,also jacket voice Made it 100 times better
Dave890
My first experience with Payday 2 was in 2014, I was excited because I had money and could afford a game for my PS3, and there it was, PAYDAY 2. Robbing banks and doing it with friends seemed like a great idea. From that moment this game has become one of my favorites, and thanks to it I've got a very nice community both on Twitch and Youtube which I appreciate very much.
ImDinax
From my first day in PAYDAY The Heist to the final days of PAYDAY 2, the PAYDAY franchise has always been close to my heart.

I consider myself blessed to make the friends I have a long the way bother heisters and developers and I hope to make more as we progress to the 3rd installment.

My favorite PAYDAY moment was back when the Big Bank was being showcased at E3. My friends and I were denied entry as we didn't have passes, as we sat outside pondering how to get in, there we saw two gentlemen with the Overkill bomb on their blazer jackets. It was Ilija and his brother! After an energetic exchange they found out what had happened and snuck us into E3 to enjoy the new map and meet the Overkill crew.

They had given us special access to the booth and we enjoyed the whole experience in its entirety.


Thank you Overkill and Starbreeze for all the love over the years! Here's to another decade of larceny and mass murder!
VyseM4H
I remember playing Jewelery Store on the Xbox 360 version with a friend when the 360 and PS3 were the only console versions. It wasn't until the summer of 2021 where I really got into the game. I still remember going through Undercover with some friends and being nervous about not messing up. Now I look back at my other achievements like completing OVERDRILL and The Secret solo or mastering Murky Station or the hours I put in on Cook Off alone for Infamy grinding.
LavenderRebellin
I had and I am still having great time playing payday 2 either alone or with friends. It is truly the GREATEST game I've ever played and I would ony hope that there were more heists
Pieset
I remember when I played Payday 2 with some friends and we used to get many achievements and complete the different jobs in the game I wish I could go back in time and be with them again with the band
Apo
Was playing a solo DW run of no mercy. Got the patient on the last door opened, cracked vials, 750+ kills and 45+ minutes later, I got the achievement.
Bannerlem3n
I remember doing your usual bank heist, after some time, a fellow robber has decided to join me, we completed the heist in ease, and later on became great teammates, sadly he passed out. Rest in peace, the legend
Who?
I have had problems in my adolescence and thanks to PAYDAY 2.... I found a place to be welcome and well received. Also PAYDAY 2 made me something known on the Internet and I really... I REALLY APPRECIATE IT!!!!
Section
I remember when I first played the game like 8 years ago on Xbox 360 and it being amazing and I loved it but also being buggy and not having a lot to do right away and stealth being confusing and hard af. But over the years, they have done a lot of stuff, and i'm so happy that payday is my favorite game ever and starbreeze is the best developer company outthere, they love the community and always listen to em. LETS GET HEISTING HEISTERS
Porkyboy
It took me 5 hours to stealth Framing Frame day 3 on DSOD and it took me 4 months with a break in between to beat White House DSOD. I also remember trying to unlock the Bushido trophy and after failing so many times the one time I completed it, I forgot I had a modifier on and it didn't count the achievement. Still the game is fun and I love it,
Smallz
i hate cloakers <3
juanpock
If you had told me 9 years ago, that'd I'd be sinking nearly 2,000 hours into Payday 2, buying every heist packs, and playing in VR, I would've been like "Who are you?"
AdvanceLAMP
I was first introduced to this game in 2021, a friend of mine suggested it to me and whilst I normally don’t like the games he requests, I decided to give this game a try. Now I have over a thousand hours and have completed every single achievement. I’ve met a lot of friends playing this game and I’m extremely glad I decided to listen my friend’s recommendation. Funnily enough he ended up getting bored of the game and now I have more hours and achievements in the game than he does. Thanks for all the memories and I hope Payday 3 can be just as good, if not better.
sssawfish
I remember, I randomly had this strange urge to try Payday 2 on my PlayStation 3 one day, which I just happened to have from a PS plus deal a while ago, and I instantly fell in love with the game. I would go on to buy the Crimewave edition sometime later and I would sink countless hours into this game. I would always anticipate new updates on consoles and when they came I would boot up the game and absolutely devour any new content they added, crime spree being one of the fondest as at the time it was one of the funnest ways to grind with its interesting difficulty progression and unique modifiers. Years later I would get my new PC and would buy Payday 2 once again, where I am now still happily heisting, hoping to achieve Infamy 100 before Payday 3's release. Shoutout to Red Archer Live as well for keeping the console hype for all those years. Here's to a better future with Payday 3.
LegionZ
I saw my cousin played PAYDAY 2 back in 2014. When I saw him played it, I thought it was a cool game and figured I tried it. Bought it, loved it, met new friends and my crew along the way. Won a speedrun tournament 1st place, and I still play PAYDAY 2 to this day. 7,385.7 hours and still counting. Thank you PAYDAY 2.
Jamesbondie
I cant imagine my life without Payday, the friends i made, the hours i spent playing with my dad and friends, i cant forget the time me and my dad were having a mental breakdown over Lab Rats
Muto
What a journey. Payday 2 after the ups and downs of the game, the game still took place at my heart. Its a game that bring back fond memories of my life. I met some interesting people that i became friends with. The game is fun in many ways, that you can make a funny build or just try hard. Thanks Payday 2
Fersalver
Playing No Mercy with my friend in Death Wish, it is very crazy
Eli
I remember this one time I was doing Overdrill with a crew and volunteered to do the floor tile code once the vault opened. Unfortunately despite following the diagram in the guide I pressed the wrong tile and failed the attempt...
And the second attempt...
So the third time we had someone else do it, and finally succeeded. Pretty funny story but to this day I refuse to do the tile puzzle if it can be helped...
Pinkialex
I played PAYDAY 2 on 4 different platforms. This game followed me during my passage from teenagehood to adulthood, and i am happy PAYDAY got to grew up as well and become 10 years old.
momo70U8
PAYDAY 2 was one of the games with which I met some of my closest friends, from trolling them by putting the cloaker noise on my sound board to finish our last job on death wish back when it was the highest difficulty or doing the white house secret with them, I cannot count the amount of found memories I have from this game alone. Compared to other veterans, I might not have played 6000h+ but I enjoyed every second of my play time.
Nepkan
I remember back in January of this year, me and my 3 friends were really invested in beating the heist "Breaking Feds". It is renowned for being difficult, and it took us around 66 attempts to beat the heist on MAYHEM difficulty (considering I was new to the game, and my friends had played the game in the past meaning they were a higher level than me). My stealth build back then was horrendous, but after 66 tries we did it. We had some really good laughs that evening. It took us around 2 days to beat the heist, considering the night before we had given up on the 20th or so attempt. It was late when we beat it, but when we beat it felt like the whole world had changed, and we had finally beat the Breaking Feds. To this day, it is still a running joke about how many times we attempted the heist... and the iconic line "Can't believe were coming back to this place.".
Weborpientum
For me my PD2 memory would have to be, in general, the excitement of coming home any day there was a new update
In10sGamer
The first time i played it was around 2018 on an xbox 360.
I was pretty alone at home, so this game was a lot of company for me. Thank you for everything!
MarcusOloski
I remember very vividly one time I was playing Framing Frame and... I met a group that I just got along with so well, coming up with our own codenames as we swindled away the gold from the Senator... It felt so good and solidified PAYDAY 2 as one of my favourite games of all time.
Jacob Brown
I remember seeing a video from Russian badger back in 2021 and decided to download the game and try it out and have been addicted to it ever since! #CREAMYLISTOARMY
Clanka payday 2
There was this one time on scarface mansion, very hard difficulty, where only my friend and a jacket Ai was alive. I remember cheering the Ai on as it carried us through the end of the heist.
StovenBin
Got into PAYDAY way back when a friend gifted me PD:TH just after the Wolf Pack release, ended up with me grabbing the Career Criminal edition of 2 and playing the beta (I remember the day Nightclub was added, still my favourite heist :D )
Been playing constantly since, got my death wish mask in feb 2015, and did a whole bunch of modding too
Here's to sinking another 2000 hours into PD3!
Tenshinen
Got my copy in 2017 when 5 million were being given away for free. Little me, who was struggling to save up money, was shocked at the very idea of getting a game I'd dreamed of buying FOR FREE. Nearly a thousand hours were lost to this game afterwards.
A. Keeper
I started heisting around the time we met the Dentist. Some friends of friends had been playing and it looked like a blast; I couldn't have imagined what it would become! Now my crew are my family, and PAYDAY will always be part of what we made together.
AnkhAngel
Because of the PAYDAY, I'm working in gamedev and make music for custom heists. So thanks to the PAYDAY team and everyone who I've interacted with in my payday journey. I wish you the best!

Cooking meth nonstop for 4 hours in Cook Off

ECM rush best mechanic!
Cyber Maniac
I actually bought the game during the 2018/2019 Steam Winter sale, and fell in love with the series ever since, with my desire to fictionally heist more and more.
Zeon
Decided to try the stealth system for the first time and do First World Bank. I got super unlucky over and over again and ended up failing over 50 times, but then I got the perfect run and finished in about 30 min. Now I can stealth pretty much any mission no problem. And I made sure that my stealth build always includes the comically large spoon.
SharkSlayer06
my payday 2 memory is weird bc first time i played it was when my brother show me the payday 2 gameplay on youtube and when he show me it i already love it <3
darkonso
I started Payday 2 with the beta back in July 2013. Bought the game on launch and couldn't put it down. I did my degree for the next three years and spent far too much time heisting than studying. Taking part in community events, befriending other players, and eagerly awaiting every new update really hit the core of what the Payday experience is about, and I'll always be so fond of this game.
Olly Smith
First time I heard of PayDay was back when Yogscast played it. Played the PD2 when it was free for 2 weeks, got fully addicted to it, my friend was generous and asked his mothers credit card to gift me the game. It was back in 2015 and I couldn't have hoped that I will meet so many great friends down the years. All the fun stuff we had, the hunt for achievements, trolling our new friends who just started playing. I owe to Payday 2 a lot, till this day we still are in contact with one another. Thank you Overkill for this amazing journey of mine you have given and to all the other players too.
ALmO_MC
I remember the days where I can’t stealth on any maps, even when I was already watching tutorials. Still can’t to this day
palpalette
AAAAHHHH, I NEED A MEDIC BAG !!!!
French Heister
This game consumed a lot of my time, and with mods, it consumed even more. Truly one of my personal favorite games of all time. Please keep this game alive even if it stops getting support ;-;
JollyMacreByc
I remember when the Secret Ending came out, and I went on to solve it with a friend. Back then, we both only had shitty computers, both of us running an intel laptop with iGPU. We both ran the game on 5~15FPS. Our PC ran The Whitehouse Heist around 5~8FPS and it was a bloody nightmare. The Watchers came at us and my friend held 'em off while I did all the work on the Vault. Our game crashed midway into the heist at least twice or thrice, but finally and thankfully, we finished it. It was such a mindblowing experience, man. I honestly shat myself when I found out that PAYDAY was going in a mythos direction, but it was one helluva ride.
Fluviarch
I haven't played payday 2 as much as everyone else as of now I only have 272 hours in payday 2 but my payday memory is finding an amazing community of really nice people alongside amazing developers who are passionate about there game and I've even met some of my best friends on payday 2 I'm looking forward for 3 happy anniversary payday 2
Slimeking1214
I remember getting the game as a gift early around 2013-14 from a close friend hopping into the game with a laggy mouse doing a bank heist, so inexperienced so wide eyed just enjoying playing a new game with my friends. I always hopped on the game when they did, acting as the bag boy in stealth as I was bad at it. As I got better and the friend group started to not play anymore, it was just me as Wolf and my friend who got me the game as Bonnie. I miss playing payday with him.
WolfRoot
Sometime in mid 2014 I picked up the game and was practicing stealth on Shadow Raid with a friend, he was teaching me the ropes. We were super serious, cautious and planning how we're going to do things. Then, while sneaking around the containers, a guard began to walk straight up into the sky. He probably got to around twice the height of the warehouse. We were in tears and laughed for a solid 5 minutes. Probably one of the best gaming memories for me.
Voixless
Getting every trophy and completing the safehouse. It was my goal from when I first started, and it only took me 1300 hours!
Coopai
Me and my mates have absolutely loved payday 2 even though we came late to the heisting party. joining in early 2021 but have loved it ever since
Smeaglesmith
I first saw Payday on YouTube and was immediately interested by the concept. As a result I played the demo on the Xbox 360 but soon upgraded to an Xbox One where I next played in 2015 with the Crimewave Edition. Since then and over a thousand hours later, I've rebought the game on PS5 and am once again racking up game time, eagerly awaiting PayDay 3.

As for a specific memory, I remember me and my mate being unable to complete Car Shop. Now I see it as a quick, easy heist to do if I want to shake things up a bit but back then we used to play for hours, trying to complete that damn heist!

Anyway, happy birthday Payday 2! I hope to be here in another 10 years time, reminscing on my PD3 memories!
harleymacca
me and my friends are trying to get all achievements back in 2017 it was crazy but we barely managed
Cheese_wheel
One of my fondest memories was during my earliest days as a player. I met a high level stranger who took me through some heists and helped me grind some exp together. I don't remember his username anymore, but he was one of my earliest interactions with the playerbase and I'll always remember him as the person who got me through my first Death Sentence heist.
naqibam
I met many friends over the years in this game, followed by many good memories. Too many to pick a favorite. Thanks Overkill for what you've done for the game and here's to hoping Payday 3 will be even more successful
ffalaffel
I think my favourite memory of this game is actually fairly recent, My first attempt at crude awakening i thought id try DSOD stealth, Not only did i complete the run but got all additional loot and the correct sample first time. Such an epic heist to top 10 years of an amazing game and community.
TeatimeWithToby
i remember my first introduction to payday being the [[POLICE ASSAULT IN PROGRESS]] video on youtube. i looked more into the game and the first heister i ever laid my eyes on and immediately fell in love with was clover. she's still my most favorite to this day <<3
happy 10th birthday to payday 2 and welcome to all the things that are to payday 3 :))))
comet
my greatest memory for sure has to be the secret and everything revolving around it, solving the achievements made me grow close to a few friends, unlocking the trophies to start the secret made me improve (and started my obsession with trohpies). and the final vault at the white house has to be one of the most rewarding things you could ever do in payday besides maybe overdrill.
major props to overkill on this one
non-existance art
I remember how I was excited when the game come out and was so happy to see old map from PAYDAY The Heist coming back
A3gn0r
I remember back in August of 2013 I saw my brother playing PAYDAY 2 with his friends, I promptly went and bought the game for my 360. Just before Crimefest of 2014 I had a PC built specifically to play PAYDAY 2 on PC because of the content draught on Console.

I met most of my friends on PAYDAY 2 few I still speak to and play PAYDAY 2 and other games with today. I remember joining a Transport: Downtown around 2016, where the host was testing out a mod which made heisters randomly speak from certain events, such as: the possibility to yell "Stay Down!" when killing a cop.

With countless !!!Access Violations!!! Later, the mod works and we still heist together to this date.

Honorable Mention - I met his friend about a year later on Hoxton's Revenge, It was his first time playing the game. From what I've been told, I complained about the heist being on Hard and not Overkill at the least. I also got told that I was laughing at him for using an Amcar at level 80+. We all laugh about it now though... Or are they laughing at me? ._.

My favorite moment in Payday 2 for me has to be doing white house stealth with a friend. After at least 8 tries we finally reached the end, and all we had to do was grab the pardon documents, but me being the way that i am smashed the glass, instantly sounding the alarm. We still made it out but I never got to live that down. Here's to another 10 years of heisting!!!
Kabobious
I think my favourite memories of Payday 2 has to be all the times where I've played with my girlfriend. Just seeing her slowly get better as we play has been such an amazing expirience. Though getting a follow from both Payday twitter man and Almir on twitter is also cool

I remember booting up the PSN store one day on my PS3 and seeing a gamed called Payday The Heist, and played the shit out of it, i never got payday 2 until 2015 on my Xbox One, ive been playing Payday 2 since on PC

Started on the 360 in 2014 and moved to PC early 2015. Played consistently till 2018 and came back a month ago in prep for 3!

Everybody remembers OVERDRILL, that realisation that you'll have to carry 70+ bags of loot but DAMN it was worth every gold bullion you pulled out with your hands
Nalivaiko
Finishing the White House heist when it first came out in 2018 to finish up the original storyline, and then finally coming back to it two years later to finish the secret with the help of a friend I met through PAYDAY
Ryan Puffs
I remember that struggle when I tried stealthing Election Day. I failed for 3 hours straight, and I told myself I would never play stealth again. Now I completed every stealthable heist on DSOD. God I love this game.
olobolo123
I remember my first ever attempts at loud heists, being carried by higher level players, barely scraping enough cash to buy a minigun. And now I've done the secret end and got a full collection of every weapon noob me ever wanted.

I've had problems in my adolescence and thanks to PAYDAY 2... I found a place that is welcoming and well received. Also PAYDAY 2 made me something known on the internet and I really... I REALLY APPRECIATE IT!!!!

Doing all the achievements on the original PS3 version.. finding a lifelong friend from a random lobby. What a trip it has been..

I remember playing the game for the first time, playing a heist and being amazed at all the things I could do.

The goats really did up the anti. Never thought goats would increase the difficulty.
AntonJ
I remember when for april fools one year, this bouncy explosives got activated. I have a friend Who used to main Golden AK and RPG and Went crazy during days because of this until we told him. That moments with him and the rest of the Crew (we met in-game 8 years ago and still play) where Amazing. This and million more. I hope to get new memories with this people on the new one too. They are basically family to me now. I am 26 years old now (the youngest in the group) and they have been with me during all kinds of moments and even got some tears when I moved continents. Thanks for letting me have this awesome interactions with people I would definitelly not know now.
Lemushki
I first started Payday 2 just around 20 days before the Breaking News event. I didn't even play with other people and leave normal difficulty until some guy helped me through harder heists. if you're out there, thank you.
Walter White gaming
I'll never forget my journey to complete The Secret and getting all heists done on DSOD, and even after all that I'm still playing Payday 2 nearly everyday! <3
Cowslop
The years spent attempting the apartment heist, I swear I still cannot find that phone

Payday 2 is the first game I played on my PC back in 2018. Since then I have had so many fond memories with me and my friends trying to rob a hospital with flamethrowers, to us trying to draw that cool S in preplanning.

10 Years of stealing our weekends playing all day.
What about 20?

I met some of my best friends playing Breakin' Feds stealth in a public game! We strategized and and tried on many attempts for HOURS until we got that perfect run!

Got the game when Hoxton Breakout came out. Since he was my favourite in the first game so i knew i had to get the game absolutely then. Now i have 1900+ hours sinked in.
Gotrush
I played Payday 2 since the beginning, but only with randoms. Randoms who were always nice and ready to teach new things. But it s thanks to Payday 2 i made my best friend. Now it s almost since 8 years i know him and we re still strong together and robbing banks. See you on Payday 3 brother!!
Sanctirafi
My greatest memory is when I played Shadow Raid with ALTeRYX007! Although im fairly new to the game I still had a lot of fun and made countless memories that I will remember forever! Thank you PayDay, Thank you Starbreeze!
Sosa95
Started playing PD2 in 2014, and since then, I was still playing despite all the controversies in 2015, the final heists in 2018 and even to this day I still play with friends, public lobbies and sometimes solo for a chill stealth heist.

Thanks to Payday, I've met so many wonderful people that either were new to the game or they already have a bigger infamy number than me. I've also had the great opportunity to work as a translator for the game since the Silk Road update.

Thanks to all the devs, producers, fellow translators, modders, partners and content creators for working on such great game during the 10+ years, and hopefully I can see you all in PD3!
NombreGenerico89
I remember how, i play payday 2 on xbox one,Then in 2020 year i buy Payday 2 on PC and buy Gage Russian Weapon Pack, and i thought that Gage is a Bodhi and i thought that Bodhi is russian.I play payday 2 few hours, then in 2023 year my friend told: who play with me payday 2? And then i started playing payday 2 many hours. Now i have Infamy III and more dlc. And i want to say for payday 2, Happy Birthday with 10 years old.
ThePedro
For the first 200 hours since getting Payday 2, I only played it at 10fps, and yet I enjoyed every second of the game. Fan of the franchise since 2015, and gonna just keep going, forever a heister.
NepsyChan
I bought the game in 2016, after looking for new FPS games to play, and I fell in love with the gun customisation, the heists, etc. even though I wasn't good at the game.

Eventually, my friends' decision to stop playing the game in 2021 caused me to lose interest for a while,
until one day in 2022 my aunt asked me to teach her how to play, and since that day I've put almost 800 hours into the game.

I can't believe a game I bought almost 7 years ago got this far, and I can't wait to play Payday 3 :) <3

10 years and so many Ukrainian Jobs completed :)

Me and my friends in celebration of Payday 3 being announced finally attempted “The Secret”. One of the most satisfying things I’ve done in games.
Bimpy
PAYDAY 2 has meant so much to me since I started playing in November 2013. Most of my friends list consists of wonderful people I've met in public lobbies, and I still talk to many of them today. I especially remember Crimefest 2014, refreshing the website every few minutes, waiting for the next content reveal and content drop, and dropping in with a group to see what's new. PAYDAY 3 has been my most anticipated game since it was first announced and I'm so excited to create many new memories and meet many new heisters along the way!
Underdrill
Played the game in 2016-2018 but didn't really get into until 2020-2021 with one of my friends who lived in a whole other country then me and we went for alot of the death sentence one down heists we even got the secret ending for the game with one random guy who was a lot of help to us
R3TR0_T4P3Z
From PAYDAY: The Heist all the way to PAYDAY 3, what a ride we've had. There's been ups and downs, but here we are!
Jones
At first, I wore a Fatman mask and spent my early days in Pro Job with the strong style of Eagle Heavy Assault Rifle and Patchett L2A1 SMG, always suffering from ammunition. As time passed, my friends left PAYDAY 2, but I was still left behind in PAYDAY 2. From Bodhi, to Jiro, to Jacket, and then to Hoxton when OVERKILL splendidly handled SWAT. In the meantime, new friends are still being made. Before I knew it, I had a new safehouse and said goodbye to Pro Job. The days of fear of ZEAL continue, but I still remember the pleasure of firing dragon breath bullets while placing the ECM jammer in Crime Spree. But I never forget to shout I NEED MEDIC BAG. I will never forget to shout WANKER. Wolf is still dancing on the dance floor with Get The F**k Out. I always want beginners to take root in this game, continue to play this wonderful game in Japan, and hope to build a community with various people. As Heister, we can keep the helmet flying.
Goah_Simulator_3
Got it on sale during the spring break event in 2015. Spent many long nights making friends with randoms on Shadow Raid. Loved every moment playing this game and loved participating in the secret during 2018.
Squarebo
I remember playing the demo non stop for payday 2 on the ps3.
I finally ended up purchasing the game on PC during 2015 together with The Gage Ninja pack.
Then i did my first ever stealth heist to get that sweet ninja mask!
Temdrik
Sorry i speak french :)

J'ai commencer à jouer à Payday 2 en 2014 sur xbox!
Je ne pensais pas commencer le jeu qui allait rapidement arriver dans mon top 3 ! Je n'ai que de bon souvenirs de nuit blanche avec des amis sur le jeu ahah

Et quand j'ai découvert la version pc ce fut un nouveau monde qui s'offrait à moi sans oublier la VR!

Merci à toute l'équipe! Hâte de découvrir payday 3 !
FuronRestoBarGrill
When Car Shop first came out and I played the heist for the first time, after grabbing the car keys, I thought the cars would become escape points, and the heist would just end there. Then, I got the prompt to unlock and enter the car. I remember my first reaction after getting inside was, "WHAT YOU CAN DRIVE NOW IN THIS GAME???" Thank you for the thousands of hours of fun in Payday 2, and I'm hugely looking forward to Payday 3! Here's to hoping we get to run over bulldozers, so we can watch their silly ragdolls zoom across the floor sometime eventually in Payday 3 lol
CriminalTrout
It's crazy to think that it's already been ten years. I remember getting into the game around the time we broke Hoxton out. It's even crazier to think that I was among the first 100 to complete the Payday 2 Secret with my friends KebabScout, Fily and Beat.
『 Sulfius 』
I remember my first time doing Overdrill with an open lobby online. The feeling of having to survive the assault while everybody was in custody and completing the heist while only ever going down twice was a clutch and a rush I will never forget!
Save
One of my fondest memories was the lead up to the release of the Big Bank Heist. One of the first major heist DLCs to be released that really took me back to that Hollywood blockbuster feeling with the introduction of The Dentist and hearing the opera singing for the first time in the trailer and just having the similar cinematic moment in game with the singing happening right at the end of the heist when the bus crashes into the wall and it was a full force attempt to get all the loot to the van.
Spooples
Crazy to think I started playing this game back in 2014 at age 14 and am now still playing it in 2023 at age 23.

I've met many people throughout that time that I still play with to this day.

Really shows how timeless this game and franchise is.
Daneii
I have around 1200 hours in the game, started back in 2015 I think.
One of my favorite games of all time.
Bush
My first memory of PAYDAY 2 was being gifted it and playing one of the branch bank heists for the first time back in 2017 with my friends. I've loved it ever since and can't wait to see what the future holds for this lovely franchise.
Imaginer VS Gaming
Payday 2 has been such a great game. COngrats on the 10 years. Favorite memory was playing with my friend going through Career Mode honestly/
Sadness Combat
I remember telling my parents that this was a cool game where you play as a "good guy Robin Hood" type of figure, because I was afraid they wouldn't let me play it otherwise.

A decade later, that little lie has resulted in life changing friendships and thousands of hours of fantastic memories in and out of the game. Thank you PAYDAY!
VALE_3K
Wow... 10 whole YEARS of Payday 2. That... I would never have imagined that I would be able to see a game like this grow so big (I mean that in how big the community is and by how much storage this game takes like holy shit 85+ Gigabytes my god). Although I don't play this game that much nowadays my friend Clover plays it a lot! She bought it in early 2020 and loves it to bits! I will say that my earliest memory of this game was... ah, I forget the year but one of my old friends introduced me to this game all the way back on the Xbox 360 and wow I just... I don't know what to say without repeating myself but man... It's been a long journey.

This goes to Payday 3 and another successful decade! 🥂
CustomAnimator
I started playing back in 2020, right before Scarface went off sale. Playing with friends, trying to get all achievements and beating everything on DSOD was amazing, even if we failed the heist. In the almost 3 years that I've been playing this game i have managed to rack up 800+ hours of playtime and Payday has quickly become one of my favourite games of all time, and one i will frequently revisit.
DestroyerMarioGamer
I remember feeling sad when the PAYDAY 2 beta was coming to an end and I posted about it on the discussion forums and somebody gifted me the game out of nowhere. I didn't know who he was nor their name but I'm forever grateful for that user because I've been heisting since launch with around 7000 hours across a 10 year timespan, pretty much growing up with the game throughout the years from the end of 8th grade all the way to the end of college. I'm excited for what PAYDAY 3 will bring.
Scotty
I remember being gifted this game back in 2016 and only sinking 40 minutes in to it. But one day in August of 2020 I wanted find a new game to become my main game and realised I had PAYDAY 2 sitting in my Steam Library and from there, the rest is history.
Metal ~Invitine~
I first played Payday 2 around the time it came out on the xbox360 back in good ol' 2013, I liked it but I pretty much forgot about it until 2016 when my brother bought me the game on steam, and ever since then, I've been hooked. And while I have had my ups and downs (holy shit never do that alien mayan bullshit again...) with this game and the community, I'll always remember that its thanks to Payday that I've met a lot of my online friends.
Crazder
Getting on payday 2 with my friend on the ps4 and staying up all night playing heist and unlocking masks. truly a wonderful time it was.
THANKS,OVERKILL
XPunderX
After modding the game for over half a decade I've really grown to love the engine it's built on. I think it gets a bad wrap, and I'm sad to see it go, but sometimes we have to move forward. Considering how well it's lasted, we should all raise a glass to 22 years of Diesel!
Cpone
I started playing PD2 in the beta and haven't stopped. But the best part of the game for me is the crew of close friends I've gained through it. We all still talk almost daily and have been for most of the past decade with full intentions of continuing with Payday 3
Dopamine
The game I never knew i needed, and I truly did not deserve! <3
Gcarrara
I remember getting into Payday during a free weekend and have been a fan since
Rowan H
As quite a few of us, I first started playing because of Badger. His videos introduced me to this game, and I've been hooked ever since. Now, over 3 years and almost 1.000 hours spent in-game later, I'm still playing the game. Part of that is of course the fun gameplay. But the thing that really keep me tied to this game is the community. Yeah, you. My best memories are those playing with randoms for hours, only to maybe never see them again. The conversations we had in the lobby, the loot we scored mid-heist. All will stick with me. You know, we might not be the best community out there - that one goes to Deep Rock Galactic - but we're damn happy being number two. As SBZ says, keep those helmets flying friends. Cya all in Payday 3 <3.

Quantavious
All I can say is thank you to the team at StarBrezze for for putting PayDay 2 crime wave edition on the consoles. Without it, I never would made the friends I see in person every year to this day. Words can’t express how grateful it is to have a game, community, and developers to this day be as strong as ever. Here’s to another ten years and to the launch of Payday 3. Thank you.🥂🥹
MrFloppa01
I remember the Payday 2 demo on PS3, where you could go up to level 10 maximum, there was only one heist and you could play with other players. It was possible to see players on this demo for a little while after the game's release, and it was great to see this little community!
Volfoni
I had 30 friends who played PAYDAY2, but I was the only one who eventually unlocked all the achievements.
Still, I had a great time playing AIRSOFT wearing the official store mask and playing co-op online.
Happy 10th anniversary!
ScudCroser
Too many memories to even recount. Been with the game since late 2013
UnknownChris565
So many great memories on this great game, doing all the heists on DSOD with my 3 friends was one of the best experiences ever. Exploring builds and doing fun challenges for hours at a time was amazing. Absolutely can't wait for PAYDAY 3!!!
Impala
Finally getting the DSOD mask solo after crying at Lab Rats.
XenoSoldier
If you're reading this then you propably know who I am and I don't need to introduce myself, but I've put over a decade of my life into this game and eventually led to creating a ton of content that many of you have enjoyed, that includes the Developers of this game including the Management. I am happy to be around with such fantastic people that I've met over that time, PAYDAY has been a huge part of my life, with over 87 658.1277 hours of my life put into it that some of it got lost in the process, but it was mostly just good memories...
Matthelzor
The community on the game, steam and discord has been a large part of my life and it's been a wild ride with ups and downs. I honestly have no idea where I'd be without it. You guys totally changed my entire life, thanks for being cool!
Nighthawk
I remember when I was young I got PD:TH not knowing how many hours I will pump into this franchise. When PAYDAY 2 released, I was begging my dad to get the game for me. Now I am 20 years old, still playing the same game I begged my dad to get for me when I was 10.

PAYDAY 2 is also the reason why I am really interested into Game Development, and I am currently working on eventually becoming a Game Dev myself.

Thanks developers for making such an amazing game, and I am looking forward to all the great memories we will get playing PAYDAY 3.
PULUTUR
The Alesso heist stealth in a pub game. We had failed multiple times until we gave in and exchanged discords. We're still some of the closest online brothers ive had.
Azzy
I remember starting this journey in 2015, the first heist I remember playing was Hoxton breakout, still one of my favorite heists, I remember grinding that heist until I got to max level, fun times.
Nolan
I don't have a lot of memories since I've joined just when the Dragon Heist first released back in 2021, but Payday 2 made my life happier in a way. I've found a lot of friends via the game, shared laughs, sorrows, and genuinely had a great time with friends and the game itself.
Payday 2 even gave me a new hobby in a form of modding! I've made a lot of custom weapon skins for the community over the past year until recent, and I'll keep making them until Payday 3 rolls around.

No matter how much Payday 2 disappoints me now, it still has a really special place in my heart.

Happy birthday, Payday 2. Happy 10 years.
HyHybrid - Fiery Demise
From the demo on the 360 back in 2013, to playing on a crappy laptop in windowed with 600x800 resolution, all the way to today with over 2.5k hours in the game and even giving back to the community with becoming a moderator of the community discord. Payday 2 has been a big part of my life in the best way possible. It's made me laugh, made me cry, gave me something to look forward to in life, and introduced me to some of the most amazing people I have ever met. So, here's to 10 years of payday with hopefully even more to come, keep those helmets flying!
Lac0tr0n
I remember having discovered payday2 on a demo of PS3 then after I bought it and I never left it I made the PS3/PS4/PS5 versions.. Time flies so fast
Terminatek
This game really us the yes.
JasonTheLXIX
I first saw Payday 2 on the xbox and i played it with my brother i had a blast and when i got a pc one of my friends had it and showed me how it was on pc and the rest was history.
TheDoctorfox1
I remember the release of "The Bomb Heists" - DLC pack. On release, me and my buddy had multiple attempts stealthing "Bomb - Dockyard" on the highest difficulty (was Death Wish back then) until we finally finished it without leaving a trace. What an exciting moment.
[DE] Niemand
I bonded, over months upon months of different maps, White House, Shacklethorn, and Shadow Raid, by trying to stealth on the highest difficulty with my now girlfriend, but I couldn't be happier for all this game gave me
LilDJAMGrim
I remember my friend talking about this game back in 2019, and how cool the stealth of the game was, and in summer of next year he got me the game on sale, and what a ride the game was! can't wait for PD3!
The Nico Hijirikawa
I'll never forget the time me and my friends I met on payday 2 were all working together getting the keys and suitcase in framing frame to unlock a new grenade launcher. We even all wore president masks in theme with the heist!
Colelyoe
During late 2017 I was not in the best mood due to personal reasons and was playing PAYDAY 2 to keep my mind off those problems. I joined a public lobby filled with 3 other nice people who were able to tell that I wasn't doing well and were very supportive to me, eventually I was able to vent to them about my problems (one of which involved my sexuality, at the time I was still questioning myself) and one of the players I was playing with was also bisexual and gave me reassurance that what I was feeling was okay and encouraged me to explore myself. Not longer after I came out as bisexual and I partly owe it a lot to that player whom I sadly don't remember and wish I was in contact with.

I want to thank you guys at Starbreeze for making a game that had this much of an impact on me and I'm highly looking foward to PAYDAY 3.
Isra
Happy Birthday PAYDAY 2!
Now here’s what I got to say about the game, so as I’ve stated back in 2013 I got this game for the Xbox 360 not really understanding what I was buying at the time and let tell you the first time I played I didn’t really pay attention to the music at first but then after certain songs appeared during the heist tracks such as “Razormind” or “Wanted Dead or Alive” I knew immediately as a young witchlet that I would adore this games soundtrack for days to come, another thing is that this game had actually a great memory during my transition, in like 2014 of December I was gifted by a good friend of mine the Clover DLC which I believe was the first female heister in the game and it meant a lot to me since it felt like validation in a way and it made me so happy. The last thing I wanted to share was that (I recently found out that I have autism) this game actually kind of helps with my urge to keep doing something and my sensitive senses in a way. For example I always press the F key which is just shouting at cops even when I don’t have too and just the bouncing music in the headphones and plus just always there being something to do Ingame. But yeah this game means allot to me and it’s been a great 10 years of PAYDAY 2!
RubyTheLesbean
Payday 2 carried me over my depression in lockdown.I've met so many cool people over there that helped me to stay positive and keep going ;-)
SwagAndHorses
I remember preordering the Career Criminal Edition and being excited for the game after PDTH, talking about it with my buddies at school. Doing it all over again but this time at a comfortable office job.
2014 was probably the best year for the game and the community. I hope we get more 2014s in the future.
Hamburger fan
favorite memory was actually a very recent one, me and the team worked hard to get 'beneath the mountain' done (at least opening the 4 vaults) in under ten minutes. whole call was shouting when we clutched it with <10 seconds remaining
YoshyFoods
man, payday was the first game in my steam library that wasn´t free to play, i spent hours and hours playing it and nevet got bored, i have met incredible people and friends, gotta be my favorite game right now, 10 years... thanks for being with me for the mayority part of my life! and as Bain said one "Lets do this" !!!!

FlyingWitch
My best memory was from doing a charity stream during the weekend after release. We raised $11k for charity while enjoying Payday 2 for 36 hours. Also have many great memories of doing silly challenges and celebrating my bday with friends in Payday! Thanks you all (especially Apo, Merky, Nacho) for still being here and hanging out after 10 years! Looking forward to creating more memories in Payday 3!
RedCobra
Playing payday 2 beta for the first time. Old skill trees, no perkdecks, max level 40. Got a really heavy nostalgia for my time in payday 2 beta after playing the payday 3 beta.
Monni
When me & my friend Demeschik finally finished Framing Frame in stealth back in 2013 without any guides (since those didn't really exist anyway). Simple nowadays but very satisfying back then.
Meidi
I learned about Payday back in 2012 thanks to a friend and since then I have been hooked! My best memory about Payday 2 is that back in 2015 I met my best friend in a game of Election Day, we got to finally meet face to face last year!
Fındık Babi
My friends finally got all the achievements to do the secret ending, and to celebrate, made the most disgusting Dallas masks to finish the game in. They all looked so dumb. I had the time of my life.

my best memory from payday 2 is when cloaker said "its cloaking time" and cloakered all over payday gang
Cocaine Cowgir;
This one was recent. Loud rats day 2, I fall off one of the bridges between the buildings and get downed in the air, putting me into my last down. One of my friends inspires me back up before I hit the ground, and the fall damage instantly puts me into custody. Everyone playing, including me, couldn't stop laughing. This game is so silly sometimes.
Knocker
Started heisting in 2011, got PDTH the day It came out and played hours upon hours with fandoms and had great fun. Fell in love with all the characters but Hoxton was my favorite because we have a similar vocabulary. Fast forward to payday 2 and I taught my friends to heist and we took on all the scores as they all came out throughout the years we never slowed down. Payday is a huge part of my life, felt like Christmas when I heard we were breaking Hoxton out. I look forward to heisting with you all in Payday 3, and I’m glad to have Wolfy back:)

Beating the secret will forever be one of the most epic moments ever

I met my girlfriend through this game, I was hosting a heat street on Mayhem and she joined and we ended up talking a lot after. Pretty cool game if you ask me :)

I remember the payday 2 demo on steam which is now gone I think and I was instantly hooked!
I’ve met a lot of nice people on there which I didn’t have in a lot of games. I’ve played so many hours in the bank heist in the demo. Now continuing playing on the full realise been a blast ever since!
‘ It’s PAYDAY Fellas!’
Maarten
I met my best friend on Payday 2 just a few months after release. We've played all sorts of games together since then, but we always come back to pull one more score.
The Fire Owl
I’ve been a longtime fan since the original in 2011. Back then I could only play games with a very underpowered 2010 MacBook. I played a fan-made port to Mac and put countless hours into it. A few years later PAYDAY 2 came out and I actually had a PC this time, so I picked that up for real too.

Been playing it ever since, and I even met my partner and best friends playing it. We’re absolutely stoked and can’t wait for PAYDAY 3!
Marlijn
Wow, didn't expect to this game that turned 10 year old. I remember that i shared this game to my three friends. They bought it. We used to play that game every day. Best crew :)
