• Saw hits are now calculated from the middle of the screen, rather then from the blades viewmodel.

• Increased base damage from 23 to 92

  • Saw damage used to have a hidden 4 times damage multiplier to locks, which made the damage display on the UI misleading. With this change the actual damage of the weapon is clearer, while also making it more usable against enemies

• Reworked ammo consumption from a random range of 5-15 per hit to a flat 5 per hit

• Reduced magazine capacity from 150 to 100

  • While seemingly a nerf, with the ammo consuption change the effective ammo capacity is higher now then it was previously

• Decreased the intensity of screen shake and visual recoil when using a saw

  • Visual recoil is only applied now when the saw hits a surface

• Increased the damage bonus for the "Sharp Blade" weapon mod from 3 to 12

• Reduced the alert radius of the “Silent Motor” weapon mod from 8.5m to 2m

• Reworked the “Fast Motor” weapon mod to double the rate of fire to 800 instead of giving 3 damage

• Increased ammo usage reduction on the "Saw Massacre" skill from 50% to 80%

Heists

Golden Grin Casino

• Fixed a ceiling lamp missing transparency on its contact shadows

Updates may be incompatible with the mods you may have installed. Even seemingly unrelated mods may cause unexpected issues. If you are experiencing any problems with the game; try removing any mods you may have installed and try again.

If you are having issues with an unmodded game you can try to verify the integrity of the game files. In the Steam library; right-click on PAYDAY 2. Select "Properties" from the menu. Under the tab "LOCAL FILES" select "VERIFY INTEGRITY OF GAME FILES...". The process may take some time to finish.
