Stellar visuals, mid heist.
Spins my 1660 ti full steam, idk its also like 30c out
Shadows rely on anti-aliasing because they're dithered so not having aa makes half the heist grainy
Some lightbake is weird in a few places
Looking out the blasted wall in loud is like staring directly in the sun
Loud: The loud of this heist can be described as hotline miami day 1 but into the basement with the winch is the only thing you do.
Get explosives>blast wall>setup winch>wait ~4 minutes>set up winch again>wait ~4 minutes>bag gold>wait ~2 minutes for car to be lowered>get keys if you didn't in the span of 10 minutes wait time>escape
If you're only doing the primary objective, half the heist is literally just waiting for something to be done.
Hell if you take out the waiting part the heists runtime is like 5 minutes flat.
The premise is good and makes sense, just blow into pd and get you stuff but the execution is very bad.
I guess the secondary is nice? Also being able to do stuff like getting car keys before you even unlock the evidence room. It gives you something to do while waiting on main thing to be done but just because i get the option to do something on the side because my main objective is watching paint dry does't mean the heist is instantly good.
Stealth: BEWARE if a guard's body happens to be on the pressure plates, you WILL lock yourself.
Stealth is >fun, basically 15 minutes of ok stealth, don't play stealth much so cant say a lot besides there's like 2 safe spots which is not fun. You also have to carry 6 bags of gold halfway across the map ~100m. Also suffers MAJORLY from pd3 not having randomized spots on restart but thats just every stealth heist.
The good: overall visuals, level design, soundtrack, stealth gameplay
The mid: loud objectives, carrying stealth bags ~100m away
The bad: 12 hour maintenance leading up to this heist, like 8 month wait time, the amount of loud snipers god its like panic room all over again
Definitely better than syntax error but still incredibly meh, maybe get it when it goes on sale
Steam doesn't have a mixed option so leaving a positive review since the good does slightly outweigh the mid
