Payday 3 update 1.000.022 has been pushed out by Starbreeze Studios during the game’s server maintenance this Feb. 29. This brings various features for PC gamers, as well as dead zone adjustments and more to controllers.

Payday 3 Update 1.000.022 Patch Notes for Feb. 29:

Update: Complete patch notes have been added to what Starbreeze calls patch version 1.1.1!

UPDATE HIGHLIGHTS & NEW FEATURES

In addition to about 300 bug fixes and improvements getting implemented, we’re happy to introduce the first of the features coming out of “Operation Medic Bag”, our grand game improvement project.

Nvidia Image scaling upscaler (NIS), Nvidia DLAA(v3.5), Nvidia DLSS super resolution(v3.5).
- Some new tech features that let us take advantage of Nvidia’s advanced features.
DirectX 12
- Added DirectX12 as the standard graphics API, inhouse testing shows a significant performance improvement when using DX12. DX11 remains and can be manually chosen with the launch option “-dx11“.

Hardcore “Cook Off” Challenge Reward
- There’s a new challenge called “Kiss the Chef.”Securing 19 bags of perfectly cooked meth on Cook Off on OVERKILL difficulty will reward a unique weapon charm.

Various UI improvements
- We’ve made several fixes to the UI, such as adding sliders, as well as added the much requested lobby unready function.

Controller Dead Zone settings
- Additional controller settings allow for a much finer customization of your controller gameplay.

Rotating Security Modifiers
- Starting with this patch, we’ll be rotating security modifiers on all heists for Very Hard and Overkill difficulty, to freshen up the experience. We’ll be updating the modifier distribution every two weeks. In the future, expect more stealth modifiers and loud modifiers in the rotation.
Game State Consistency
- The game will now remember if you’ve chosen to show or hide the story videos in the heist selection even after restarting the game.
- Lobby type and difficulty will now automatically be set to the same as the previous game.

KNOWN ISSUES

Skill point assignment has been reset on loadouts but you retain your earned skill points, so remember to recreate your builds after updating the game.
[PC] The introduction of DX12 support has helped us to identify an issue that is present in the previous version of the game that we were unable to reproduce on DX11. This means that there is a rare edge-case issue while using GeForce Experience/Shadowplay’s ‘Instant Replay’ feature can cause a system lock if you ALT+Tab during game startup, or while switching between fullscreen and windowed modes in the game’s video settings.
- We advise turning off ‘Instant Replay’ in the Nvidia settings to prevent this issue while we work on a fix for this.

BALANCE

Skills

Tweaked the skill “Disengage” (Tank) so that sprinting is not blocked by Nader gas
- “Disengage sees a lot of use, but after the once-per-heist effect is over, it feels like a wasted skill point. With this change, we want it to still have an impact” -Mio
“Hardy” (Tank) has been changed to: “When one of your armor chunks breaks, you gain damage immunity for 2 seconds.”
- “Hardy’s use felt redundant compared to “Solid” (Enforcer), so we’ve changed it to this new effect to give players more margin for error when in combat.” -Mio
Shell Shock” (Demolitionist) now works on all enemies and its bonus is increased to 20% (from 10%)
Tweaked so that throwable flashbangs now also trigger the Demolitionist Aced skill
- “This was an oversight on our part.” -Mio
Negotiator” (Manipulator) now drops 2 extra resources (from 1)
- “Negotiator didn’t feel like it was worth taking until you exhausted all other trading upgrades, so we’ve made it drop an additional resource to make it more appealing.” -Mio

- “We’ve made several changes to the CQC Specialist line to improve its flow and utility.” -Mio

“Soft Assets” (CQC Specialist) has been changed to now say: “If you have RUSH and shove away a SWAT you held as a human shield, RUSH is consumed, and you repair your current armor chunk if it’s damaged. This ability only triggers once per enemy. You move 5% faster while holding a human shield.”
- “The old skill’s ability to restore ammo wasn’t as useful in the current state of the game, so we decided to replace it with a way to repair armor.” -Mio
Triage skill” (Medic) no longer consumes buffs to activate.
“Steady Hands” (Medic) now gives its effect to any teammate interacting with a Medic Bag. If multiple players have this skill, its effectiveness is increased by 5% for each player on top of the base 20%.
- “We’ve made this change to improve the support playstyle. Let us know what you think so we can make more adjustments in the future.” -Mio
“High grain” (Ammo Specialist) now gives its effect to any teammate interacting with an Ammo Bag. If multiple players have this skill, its effectiveness is increased by 5% for each player on top of the base 20%.

Starbreeze hasn’t revealed the patch notes just yet, but the studio did relay some of the highlights in today’s patch in last week’s dev blog post.

We’ve added two features to help your game look & run better on PC; support for DirectX 12 will be added in the next PAYDAY 3 update. (You’ll still be able to choose DirectX 11 via the launch option -dx11 should you for some reason prefer that).

We’re also adding Nvidia’s Scaler features such as Image Scaling Upscaler (NIS), DLAA 3.5 as well as DLSS Super Resolution 3.5. These should help anyone with a weak or a fancy GPU make the game look and run even better!

In addition to that, we’ve got several controller options such as the much requested dead zone adjustments to make controllers more customizable and feel much better to use.

Another very requested feature has been added as well: the unready function! You can now click “READY” again to… unready.

And the last thing we want to mention in this post, for all you hardcore players, we’ve added a challenge for completing Cook Off on OVERKILL and getting out with 19 perfectly cooked bags. Anyone who pulls this off will be rewarded with a unique weapon charm.

~~Once the official patch notes are out, we’ll update the article with the info.~~

Update: Complete patch notes have been added.
