First Impression Review:
Ok so I did play this game a bit solo and with friends. I will be basing this review on my impressions for the hours I have.
So straight at the start, you can get free stuff just by liking the payday 2 steam page, which is pretty cool.
Afterwards you start searching for missions by difficulty and you can always play with friends or random. Some missions you have to do a few things (days) to complete and some need only 1.
This is pretty good since you have a high variety of choices to pick, you can always try something else depending on your likes and what you enjoy. There are levels that allow you to wear different armor and equip different weapons on your character, you have 2 type of upgrades to choose from while you play. One is speciality and the other one is some sort of extra additional stats.

In terms of quality, its pretty good even for current days and it requires really small requirements to play. It has nice depth to it. The detail is there, you can see everything, maybe add a bit more blood when you kill would make it a bit better. The structures and environment is pretty good, smokes and everything is on point.

The sound of the game is very good. It doesn’t have any repetitive sounds coming out of nowhere, soundtracks are cool and you also have DLC's for extra. I mean this game focuses heavily on DLC's I guess, you can get so much from them, it costs over £100 to grab all of them which is insane. However because this game is so popular u can find bundles and stuff with them so its conveniently good.

Co-Op/Multiplayer. So Yes it is possible for others to join your games if you are missing somebody instead of playing with bots though it’s not very common from what I saw. Once we had somebody join, turned out to be a cheater since he got kicked by trying to put too many deployables, and YES its WAY BETTER to play with friends. You get so much more experience enjoying together at the stupidity when somebody screws up REALLY hard. I mean I nearly killed a guy...

Graphics – 7.5/10
Audio 8.5/10
Gameplay 6/10
Variety 7.5/10

I definitely recommend this game, I am definitely going to play it more in the future.
Final Verdict: 7.5/10
