F doesn't work
Hi,

As you all know that F is used to tell you where guards are on Payday2. Well for me that doesn't work. But F does work when it comes to do other things like opening doors etc... I have tried changing mu button but it would still not work even though the other things like opening doors still worked when i changed it.

You mean marking guards, the red outlines will disappear eventually

You can only mark normal enemies while in stealth. After a heist goes loud you can still call out special enemies, like Tazers and Cloakers, however.

Do you have your mask on? If not, do you have the skill from the ghost tree that lets you spot with mask off?

What are you expecting to see? You press F at any time and every guard on the map is outlined?

Right, brain fart: like Shurenai said, you have to have the Chameleon skill.

Marking enemies only work son the one enemy you are specifically looking at when you hit the F key, is somewhat range dependant (Wont spot from too far away), and will not work through walls or anything. it will NOT mark every enemy on the map

Ok. Thats how I understood your first post.

But. It does not work that way. When you are close to a guard and look straight at a guard - then you can press F to mark that guard. Only him, noone else ;-)

Yep! It's only 1 skill point so you shouldn't have any trouble getting it. Check the Shinobi tree in the Ghost tab of your skills.

Also, remember to use the profile system: that way you can jump between your stealth build and different loud builds quickly without having to reselect everything, even between different days of a heist.

Edit: It'll even change your equipped Perk deck and mask, which you normally can't do after you're in the contract. That's very useful.

Yes i know that it wont mark all the enemies or guards in the map it will only mark the one or two that i am looking at. But again its not working. I even tried going up to a guard right nxt to him and spammed F nothing happened i almost got detected but i went back

You can spot two guards if they next to each other actually. I have seen a friend do it. But anyways i dont want to get off topic
