Last year Payday 2 developers Overkill teamed up with the developers for Hotline Miami to bring a Hotline Miami themed DLC for a little extra taste of the old ultra violence. This DLC was received highly from the community despite one of the requirements for purchasing the DLC was owning Hotline Miami.
It comes as no surprise that with the upcoming release of Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number on March 10th that Overkill would be once again releasing another Hotline Miami themed DLC, but here’s where the issues arise. A few weeks ago it was announced that Hotline Miami 2 would be banned in Australia because of its questionable content. This poses an issue for Australian gamers who want to purchase the newest Payday 2 DLC. Well OVerkill has a solution.
If you can prove that you are an Australian citizen then Overkill will send you a copy of their newest DLC pro bono. With many developers as of late choosing to line their pockets at gamer’s expense, it is nice to see developers like Overkill and Dennaton Games looking after the players.

If u are playing PAYDAY 2 just don’t play it on windows 8.1 same goes with CS:GO!!
W7 its much better for this old games!
What? I play both games with Win 8.1 and there is not a single issue.
i didn’t said something for a issue its about FPS min and max and a little bit of stutter.
Do a test on both OS’s and you will see that there is a difference betwen w7 and 8.1 on cs:go and payday 2 for example lower min fps in cs:go thats one thing to go and in payday 2 “some” maps not all…. have that spike lags/microstuttering were in windows 7 was not present!
For all the other new games Windows 8.1 its better 🙂
i know most of the casual users will say “ohh but it works fine here” but i always say the truth because for me every FPS counts and i always want the best performance for my games so thats why i have w7 and w8.1 installed on my SSD 🙂
Payday 2 was actually released after Windows 8 so it is definitely not an old game. It isn’t even 2 years old yet.
And still is running better on win7
No it isn’t. There’s almost zero difference between gaming on windows 7 and 8.1.
In fact hardocp did a comparison between 7 and 8.1 on BF4 which is just as “old” as payday 2 and 8.1 came out top with 5fps higher in all benchmarks. 5fps only.
So please stop spreading your misinformation.
Yes it is i will make a video and show it !
But for new games win8.1 its great !
but for payday 2 ,cs:go win7 its supreme!
CS:GO = win8.1 200-350 FPS win7 = 400-500FPS
PAYDAY 2 = win 8.1 stutter with the same fps , win7 = no stutter great fps
That is completely incorrect.
yes it is !
And its not just me i can make a video proof with GTX 970,GTX580,GTX 680(main) with several hardware’s and configs i5,i7,FX8350 win7 vs win 8.1 for the following games payday 2,cs:go.
cs:go on w8.1 i get only 200 to 300+ FPS
and in windows 7 400-500+ FPS and i know there are not 300Hz monitors etc but on source engine every FPS matter because you feel it!
depends on the game engine for source engine(CS:GO) even if u have only 60Hz monitor it will feel a lot better on higher FPS than 60!
On BF4 yea after 60 i don’t feel anything special ! But on CS:GO definitely
i wish it was doing that on Crysis 3 haha
Incorrect. There is no such thing as a massive fps difference between Operating systems.
you should be banned for trolling and telling lies
i always brought proof so you are the troll in this case!
He really should
in cs:go and payday 2 i get better and stable FPS with Windows 7 but in rest Windows 8.1 is better!
payday 2 its awesome if you play it with your friends!!!
On BF4 i have to be agree with you indeed Windows 8.1 and BF4 worked much better than it did on Windows 7
You wouldn’t recognize an ‘old game’ even if it bit you on the a*s.
dosen’t matter they still did it on w7 and still they are working on their patches with w7 but anyway 🙂
