I'll start by saying that this is my favourite game by far, I LOVE IT, and even tho I played a lot of games, the fact that PAYDAY2 has a really high number of maps (around 80) and difficulties (around 8), is a game that can entertain you a lot and with friends is even better.
Personally, because I LOVE GRINDING games, so for me is a MASTERPIECE.
It has really high number of DLCs and Achievements, thus giving you a lot of things to do in the game.
talking about the type of ways to complete a contract (map), you can do them in: LOUD and/or STEALTH, the first one is the "noisy" option and the second one is the "quite" option. Is important to make clear the fact that in both cases if you FAIL, you HAVE TO RESTART ALLOVER again; so is pretty unforgiving when talking about rewards, because if you fail you fail, and all of your progress is lost (and I mean ALL, even if it took you 1 hour).
In general the STEALTH gives you more bonuses and it's really satisfying.
In general, in LOUD or in STEALTH, it's a game that require good strategy, planning and good choices at the right time.
◼ Side Note 1: With the Update 199.3 you can now see how many pagers left you have (if you are in Stealth) or how many converts you have (if you are in Loud) by pressing "TAB" (if you haven't changed it) and you can now receive 1 Gun Skin per Day.
I TOTALLY RECOMMEND this game if you LOVE GRINDING and the option of GUN CUSTOMIZATION that this game offers.
◼ Side Note 2: After the long awaited Update 200 (that brought the new Infamy system "Infamy 3.0") you can now go up to Infamy 500 (or "D" if you prefer Roman Numerals) while before it you could go up to infamy 25 (or XXV); so if you like the game and love Grinding, you now have a lot of Work to Do and Enjoy.
