Payday 3 First Major Patch Faces Further Delays, Developers Address Issues

Patch Delayed Again as Developers Prioritize Quality and Stability

Fortunately, some of the matchmaking issues that plagued Payday 3’s launch, causing difficulties for players trying to enjoy the game online, have already been resolved at the beginning of the month. In the long term, Starbreeze Studios had indicated their intention to evaluate new partners for matchmaking services and make Payday 3 less reliant on online services. CEO Tobias Sjögren also hinted at the potential addition of an “offline mode.” However, the availability and timeline of this offline mode remain unconfirmed, leaving players eager for further details.

The idea of an offline mode has garnered considerable interest among prospective Payday 3 players, particularly those who were disappointed by the initial announcement that the game would require an internet connection to play. The potential for such an offline mode could significantly enhance the gaming experience for a broader audience.
