Payday 3 and mods

[[she/her] Lilith]

Just a little question. Is there any plans on official mod support for payday 3?
(Or at least not fighting against mods, like in payday 2)

How was payday2 fighting against mods? They were even encouraged, some mods made it into base game

I probably wrote it incorrectly
I meant that, like in payday 2, they won’t fight against mods in payday 3 as well

Ah I see! Okay then I apologise, but that is not yet confirmed to my understanding

We won't know until the game's actually released.
But I wouldn't hold my breath on mod support, not with microtransactions and an in-game currency already confirmed.

On the recent PR/Marketing time, they have said that it will be confirmed/denied later on. So we dont know and they are saying they cant say.
Who knows, maybe the whole intent to go UE4 to UE5 might mean modding will be delayed till then?

PD2 is only such a success because of the modding community, so if Overkill is wise (which is quite doubtful to say the least) they'll encourage and support mods for their next game.

According to Red Archer Live, he has asked this question during a Q&A with a staff member and that video goes live on Friday. Whether or not the answer given there is conclusive or not is to be seen.

This right here, among many other reasons is why pd3 is destined to flop hard. Let’s face it, mod support is going to be extremely limited or outright unsupported because you wouldn’t want modders making superior cosmetics for free when you can buy said cosmetics with thier ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ mtx. It truly is astonishing that ovk is so out of touch that they fail to realize payday 2 has lasted as long as it did because of the modding community, you would think they’d make that a priority with the sequel but nope.
