It has already rained since we played Payday 2 for the first time. This cooperative action title developed by Overkill and Starbreeze was originally seen in 2013, [on PC and the previous generation of consoles](http://store.steampowered.com/app/218620/PAYDAY_2/) . Since then it has been growing and receiving new versions , without the user base has disappeared at all. So, cold, it may seem a bit strange that a title of these characteristics has not lost its interest ... And that is precisely why a version of this title has now been released for Nintendo Switch , whose adaptation work has run to charge of Sumo Digital.

### About The Game
If you have not played Payday 2 yet, the basic thing to know is that it is a first-person shooter with a strong cooperative approach . We are a thug who joins countless blows with other thugs, sharing the booty (which is invested in better weapons and pots), and improving their unique and complementary skills along the way. With that the base would already be explained, since it is a game without history, beyond enriching ourselves, being more powerful and executing more dangerous and expensive punches. We just have to worry about equipping ourselves correctly, taking advantage of our abilities (and those of our colleagues) and executing the blow we have chosen with surgical precision.

### Missions
The variety of missions is quite high, although in practice everything ends up being a run-survive-shoot in which chaos reigns and a certain sense of urgency. It does not matter if everything starts as an infiltration or as a stealth kidnapping, in the end there will be many shots, changes of plans and unrestrained action. That is the magic of Payday 2 , that of continuously getting on the verge of collapse with waves and waves of enemies, with a goal always close that leaves us with honey on the lips if we fail, or with a feeling of satisfaction if we win. This remains intact.

### Content
This version of Payday 2 seems to have been left out of the way the latest updates, additions and improvements of the base game, remaining somewhat behind the rest of the game versions at present (its responsible recognize that this version is, at its launch at the height of the game in mid-2017, and that during this year will update the game to put it at the height of the other versions ). It is true that, if we do not compare with the other versions, this port to Nintendo Switch offers dozens of characters, masks, weapons, personalization objects and missions. So many that we can be playing for many hours before we get to see the entire content of the game. It is also true that for the occasion a new character has been created, Joy, with his own mask, skills and weapons. A small addition that is not enough to cover the small clipping of the game compared to the other versions.
However, because of this the game is worse than it should be, since it keeps errors that have been fixed in other platforms. A good example of this would be the problems of the AI allied, which only shoots at enemies and revives us if we fall, leaving human users all the responsibility to meet the basic objectives of the mission. This may seem logical, but when the mission is to take, for example, safes, at the rate of one per character, and only one of the characters does, it ends up repeating itself too much. The enemy AI is not much better either, being mostly cannon fodder for our weapons.

### Ways to Play
As we all know that this is the first time we can play Payday 2 in a completely portable format , so this is a point to take into account when enjoying the experience: you can take your Theft, minor or major, with you and your friends, to play locally, wherever you want. This is also the best way to play Payday 2, since the online capabilities of Nintendo Switch do not quite rise to the occasion. The problem is not so much the stability of the games or the delay, but the current impossibility of communicating by voice with your playmates . There is a signal system, but it is not the same.

### Sound
The sound plot arrives without changes. That is to say, with the dubbing in English, a soundtrack full of dubstep and many sound effects of weapons. Compliant, once again, without changing the landscape of the game in general. Before finishing, and put to be punctilious, could have taken the opportunity to be clearer with the game interface and available options, for example. Something basic that has been left out in the adaptation work, and that does not make the game worse, but it does contribute to the feeling of being in front of an old title, which has not fully supported the passage of time, Although still fun .

### Additional Info
Since the limited hardware of Nintendo Switch is also another small ballast in the backpack of this production. We are referring, of course, to the problems of the small sticks of the Joy-Con to work with precision. If you have a Pro-Controller, do not hesitate, you will enjoy much more of this title. Also, targeting small enemies on screen in portable mode can be tricky. Payday 2 is displayed at 720p and 30 frames per second in this mode, with some small slowdowns when we are in open environments. For its part, with the console in the dock reaches 1080p but also offers problems to maintain a stable rate of images per second. To this we must add that the visual finish of the game is far from the current standards, with blurred textures, simple scenarios, not very successful animations ... In 2013 it looked good. In 2015 I was still working. Today it offers a visual section worthy of another era, without the lower hardware of Switch being the excuse to justify it (the system has shown that it is capable of moving even more sophisticated titles without problem).

### Conclusion
Payday 2 reaches another platform, without changing a bit of its essence. It is still a cooperative shooting game of the most fun and intense, although its mechanics and technical finish show over the years. This would be forgivable because it is portable, but it is not the only ballast of the production, which also forgets some additions and improvements in the other versions, making this revision inferior to the rest ... Without forgetting that In addition, Nintendo Switch still does not have voice chat, and Joy-Con does not just be the optimal control method for first-person action games. In short, an entertaining shooter, especially in local cooperative mode, but too much of the old school but a game worth playing.
Happy Gaming!!!!
