Hardcore Henry Payday 2 Collaboration?

[Mother_Flowers]

Yeah, it's happening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJEiZyfqZiU

Leaks of what the Collaboration may/may not contain

Small edit:
So the original Video has been set to private on Youtube which in it's place an altered one which doesn't include the free PD2 code was uploaded. I wonder what this means for the collaboration?

Original OP

The Video got set to private on Youtube, no clue why. I wonder what this means for the collaboration?

Basically, if you buy tickets for the movie off FathamEvents[www.fathomevents.com] you'll get a free download code for Payday 2 (plus some other stuff related to the movie). My first thought would be that we're getting Henry as a heister, then I remembered he's a half-human half-cyborg and unless OVK truly couldn't give two ♥♥♥♥♥ about the storyline atm then my only other guesses would be that Sydney is his wife, we're getting a heist based of a scene from the movie or OVK are desperate for a more players (the player count is considerably lower then it used to be) and they're giving it away for free.

So uhm..... discuss

Yup, I totally didn't just steal this off Reddit and brought it over here.....

Also, quick question...
For those who have seen it in Russia or Canada, it's already released over there, there doesn't happen to be a scene involving a hotel and perhaps a waitress is there?....

[inspector-81]

Wow. Uh. Yeah. I don't know anything about this movie. Maybe it's cool? I don't know if adding him as a character would go over well...

[BitsOfSkin]

Jesus wept...
As if we didn't already have enough cheating noob scum as it is.
Doubt this will draw in any sort of intelligent, 'paying customer' type players.

Tbh I think this movie looks amazing and I'm pretty darn interested in it, more then John Wick and Point Break anyways, and OVK aren't amazing at knowing what the community want. The closest they've gotten so far is doing a Perk Deck update but they just buffed a few decks instead of nerfing the OP ones and perhaps make the game a little harder. But another theory is that it could be that Henry's wife is Sydney in PD's universe but OVK don't put that much thought into their character's backstory, unless it's Jiro by which they'll hope we'll forget about it I still want that Kento Breakout Heist

[ButterBro]

Okay so does the code just include the charcter or are there any extra goodies included?

[AvatarMan]

Chances are Overkill chose this movie because it's a mid-low end movie. Not a mega blockbuster, so they accepted whatever deal Overkill offered, or just accepted in general which is something a blockbuster wouldn't do.

But it seems like such a strange choice of movies to go with, the only thing I can see that even slightly relates is that it's first person and has guns. *shrug*

I'm just going to say it, it looks like a college students project using a go-pro. Sure it has explosions and all that, but it looks jolty and weird.

Imagine the green bridge 2016 heist where you save kento instead of the chinese dude :O

What? No this is just speculation that we'll get a collaboration with the movie. If you buy tickets for the movie of the website you'll get a download code for PD2, I doubt it'll include any dlc's or anything.

I am not sure, but this movie looks like it's set in the future? Which would be kind of weird in a present day heist game. I don't know why his wife would be Sydney, or why she would be a heister. What they have in common is they are both FPS. But other than that, not really a good fit thematically. Maybe there is a scene that lends itself to a good heist. Maybe stealing some cyborg tech? Dunno.

Well apparently Bohdi has an alterted nationality, so they could always do the same for "Sydney", besides it's: Easy money, A Collaboration, Another DLC, Advertisement, Can easiy copy a heist layout from the movie and I'm sure there's another I'm forgetting. Hey, the producers may even be Swedish!

Oh and btw, it's set in the present, it's a sci-fi film.

[inspector-81]

They could change his wife's nationality sure. But still, it doesn't look like she's a heister or a thief or the like in the movie. Just a lady who made her husband a cyborg. That was a weird sentence to type.

[Gunsmith Noob]

I think it's pretty much confirmed...i hardly believe Starbreeze would give away the game without getting anything back from STX entertainement....

Don't worry, my coca cola theory was semi stole from there too

It's most likely going to happen, but it's not a big deal.
If it happens, it happens.
As long as there isn't another grinder perk deck or another buzzer melee
