Any Steam user can download a free copy of Payday 2 right now, and the game will be theirs forever, courtesy of a special offer from publisher Starbreeze Studios.

The multiplayer shooter is available free for a limited time — the deal will expire either on June 21, or when the total of free downloads reaches 5 million, whichever comes first. The offer is a way to get a free copy of another product: the upcoming Payday VR, which will be free for anyone who owns Payday 2 on Steam.

Good deal!

I have to admit, that I never got in to PayDay 2 - I played it a few times, but it never clicked. I've been meaning to go back to it for a while, so now that the community will be a lot larger, now may be the time :).

@Abarbarian - this game runs on Linux too :thumb:.
 
Trouble is I do not have 35 GB free on my W7 gaming set up and do not have Steam set up on my new Arch. I guess I could download to my MX-16 but that would only give me a linux version or would it. Hmmm the yorkshire man in me is tempted :rolleyes:
 
You could always claim it in Steam now, but not download it yet - then when space frees up, download it in future :).
 
Thanks for the heads up V_R, installing it now.

Must admit though I never got into Payday 1, a very frustrating game, but I just can't say no to a freebie :D
 
Thanks for the heads up. Never played the game before, but as it's free it would be rude not to download it :cheers:

This. Just claim it now and install it when you like.

Also you know you can choose your install directory now right? I'v e got some of my Steam games (PUBG for example) installed on my SSD.

Grand. I thought you had to download it straight away.

Yup knew about the different drives for Steam. So far I have filled up almost me C drive and have D + E ssd's almost filled too. Guess I'll either have to buy another ssd or do some game managment.

Trouble is with these latest games they take up 30 to 50 GB's :rolleyes:
 
Have this qued at Steam. Thanks for the tip and heads up folks.:cool:
 
Well, not wishing to appear ungrateful but,,, I didn't like Payday 1 and I now know I don't like Payday 2.

More of the same frustrating gameplay which involves a lot of stealth...die...start again...die...start again...die... same old, same old...getting annoyed...die...punch something...gaaaaah!
