The 5 Worst Heists in Payday 2

[AlastairKD]

1. Framing Frame
Without a doubt this heist is probably the worst multi-day heist in the game for me, stealthing it isn't fun at all because of the poor guard and camera placement along with VERY unpredictable guard routes, but Day 3 of it specifically is probably the biggest middle finger of all. Your chances of clearing it in stealth legitimately without wanting to yank your hair out are a flat 0, the guard placement and patrol routes are poor, camera placement completely covers every corner of the map, and even considering using a drill on any of the doors gets you spotted by cameras if even a single pixel of the drill is in the line of sight.

2. The Alesso Heist
There isnt much to say that most players haven't already said, the level design is just piss poor in both loud AND stealth, the safe cutting area is completely cut off by cameras and the camera guard locations are NEVER safe to traverse to in order to shut them down. Not to mention you have nauseating overdoses of blue and pink neon lighting, and the music in the level cannot be shut off without mods. This is probably the worst DLC hybrid heist in the game for me.

3. The Bomb Heist: Forest
Yeah, everything about this map is a middle finger. Bad holdout positions, lack of cover, and the huge map size pretty much means you'll be getting destroyed on higher difficulties by enemies out of your range if you dont have a sniper rifle.

4. Ukrainian Job
For one reason, and one reason only. This is the easiest heist in the game, bar none.

5. GO Bank
It's really bad in almost every aspect a heist can offer, the payout is low and takes way too long to do, RNG plays a HUGE factor in this heist, there is little to no cover at all when going loud, and its heavily reliant on ECM jammers due to the camera placement.

There is actually cover on Henry rock,the box on the start and the access to each room too

A mop bucket, a small corner, a medical chair and a few crates aren't going to cut it as adequate cover when heists used to have entire rooms specifically meant for you to hold out in.

If ppl can do It on dsod there is no problem then

lol...
"If people can do it, it is no problem then"... well of course not xD But if that is your argument then literally NONE of the heists are bad at all

Well,but Henry rock isnt a hard heist though,thats what i meant ,i did It on 2 attempts (becuase of the final turrets,not becuase uhhhhh "there isnt too much cover")

Bomb forest and LAB rats are harder

I d not consider any event heist as a heist tbh,idk why they exist

Personally, I don't feel there is really such a thing as a "truly" agonising heist, but there are always most favourites and least favourites

5. Bank Heist: Deposit
Now, I understand that people usually keep a designated saw person, but this is still a frustrating way to get loot in both stealth and loud. I probably have a personal bias against this since this was the first map I played back in late 2015.

4. Car Shop
Cars feel weird to drive, so the last part of the mission feels like a let down. Loot is really poor too so this kinda ruins it for me. Otherwise a nice idea

3. Alesso
A nice idea for a heist, but the map feels kinda confusing. The layout is weird and it's sort of a pain to get around.

2. Goat Sim
No cover, long open streets and no opportunity to do this in stealth, enough said.

1. Go Bank
I really, REALLY liked the concept of this Heist. This is arguably one of the more realistic heists owing to the fact that:
- Civilians constantly spawn (It's a bank, of course people would be constantly coming)
- Phone calls (again, banks are busy places, this is bound to happen)
- Occasional security checkups (at a place like a bank, this is plausible)
What I absolutely hate about this map, which is both unnecessarily frustrating and breaks the immersion, is the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ lasers! Seriously, if you have both keycards, who the flying ♥♥♥♥ would have a system like this? This isn't some jewel thief movie, this is a bank dammit! Oh, and the pay is kinda ♥♥♥♥ too.

Well as the trivia tells this bank is not an ordinary bank. Unlike a normal bank it does not only hold money and some deposit boxes for personal stuff. It is also some sort of a "No questions asked"-business like the bank from "Inside Man" (with Denzel Washington) where you rent a deposit and you can put literally ANYTHING inside. You are not even guarded or surveilled by cameras while putting stuff inside. This also might be the reason why The Dentist is that much interested in that bank besides testing the heisters. Anyways the trivia tells that this bank had not been broken for 200 years now and they praise themselves with their level of security so there has to be some sh*tload of security there.

And to your questions "who the flying ♥♥♥♥ would have a system like this?"... well Fort Knox maybe? xD

1) Almost as if framing frame is meant to be a challenge
2) alesso heist is pretty tame
3) Looking at your achievements you haven't even tried one down loud

What does my achievement count have to do with it? That's completely meaningless especially since in progress games dont net the achievement.

You literally never tried any heist on Deathsentence with One Down-mechanic on loud (according to your achievements). With that said you basically cannot have a feeling of how bad Goat Sim or these Event Heists can actually be. You will cry for Henrys Rock if you try one of the other named heists on the highest difficulty on loud while only being allowed to die once (or twice with Nine Lives)

That is what James wanted to tell you with that

I've never been able complete Framing Frame ever since the beta came out. I've probadly attempted it 50 times and each time I quit in anger. Day one is so unfair it makes you think you are going to break your monitor. For 6 years I've tried to beat it. I went from being a teen to a man and I still hate that heist today as much as I did the first time I tried it.

All other heists where you think stealthing with randoms is a good idea are my other 4.

Payday 2 can be like this. The gallery on day 1 is small and contains like, 7 or 8 wandering guards. Here are my suggestions:

As assets take 3 spycams. I put them in the back 3 rooms, but it probably doesn't matter too much "where" as long as you place them. Plop a keycard in the bathroom to help with the camera guy.

Lockpick into the bathroom then sit still and wait for your abilites to mark the guards as they wander close. When a guard is right next to your position (in the bathroom) go bump against the hand driers. This will make them go off and cause the closest guard to change their path into the bathroom. Wack em, then rinse repeat until you've killed 3. The 4th will just activate another guard anyway, so don't bother.

Once the guards are thinned out you can opt to do the camera guy. Maybe you want to only kill 2 guards in the bathroom then the camera guy? Your options.. Use the roof to find the cam guy and as many paintings as you can. Note where the laser barriers are as well. With all this info safely garnered, start stealing paintings. There can be up to 9. If you want the best chance of winning day 3 you're going to want them all but it's winnable with the minimum.

Good luck!
