Payday 3 will finally be getting an offline mode – although we don’t know exactly when.
Payday 3 hasn’t exactly had the best of launches. It was plagued with matchmaking issues and online-only requirements on release, and subsequent patches were delayed. All this lead to developer Starbreeze admitting that sales and player activity were lower than it had hoped, but it would endeavour to turn this around with a series of prioritised improvements.
Now, we know more about what these upcoming improvements will be, thanks to the reveal of Operation Medic Bag. Here, the developer announced that an offline mode is coming to Payday 3, as well an overhaul to matchmaking (Starbreeze admitted that right now, “matchmaking isn’t doing a good job of bringing people together”), tweaks to the UI, a solo mode and a quickplay option. Additionally, “challenges will be removed”, with the developer stating it will “switch infamy progression to be tied to heist completion”.
