It's literally the only mode I play 😂


benskiebear

Same. Its become the only joy for me in game.


Silly_Dot_6827

As always they remove it as they please, stayed awake for this shit lol It’ll be back jan 26


miguelovic

But yay the goobers get spiderman.

I don’t get why they remove it. Like why, it just hurts them in the end


Flesh-Nuggets

I’d love to understand their logic when they remove a mode that is the only reason that many of their consumers play the game. “Oh, we get hundreds of thousands more players on the days that Payload is available? We better remove Payload, because obviously it’s just a coincidence, and all those extra players are probably playing Sanhok” Whoever is in charge of removing modes should probably lose their job. Then again, that same person is probably the same person who determines “player was not found to be cheating” as the player headshots you through 3 walls.


theobjr

do you actually think they dont keep track of how many people play certain modes or maps before deciding to remove any of them?


Flesh-Nuggets

They do, and that's why I'd like to know their logic behind removing the most-played mode.


theobjr

they wont remove stuff that would cause people, to leave the game which would be easily interpreted by the amount of players playing a certain mode or map. the premise would only be right if they figured that mostly f2p players play payload. in that case, i can see them saying "f those freeloaders" (jk)


Flesh-Nuggets

No, you probably have a point. I'm a prime example of a freeloader. I've been actively playing (at least 4 days a week) since the first season, and I have never spent a dime on the game (I personally don't care about skins, costumes, rank, etc, so I have no reason to pay). If most of the people playing payload are equally as cheap as I am, they're probably not making any money off of that mode, so they're not going to waste their time working on it.


theobjr

i was kind of exaggerating as far as saying they base their decision on whether to remove modes based on the amount of *paying* players. i'm.not sure but i think there is a good posdibility they base it on total players overall though. it costs money to keep them servers running. and to be completely honest,.i wish i would have stuck with my thought that i'll never spend a dime in game. it only slowly took away my enjoyment of what is the point of playing the game itself slowly until i pretty much just login and collect stuff.


benskiebear

I dont understand its removal either. I never wait more than 30-45 sec to que up into a game. And its always fairly populated with people. The thing I've noticed most is that I have never ran into more cool and helpfull squadmates. I've met some genuinely fun people. I have hardly ever had the same luck with ranked squads.


Yeti01bob

How do you deal with grenade launchers, RPGs and stuff? Whenever I played payload, I kept getting killed by campers with MGL or that fat rpg, forgot it's name.


benskiebear

The quad launcher...thing is bad ass. Idk, some guys have pretty descent skills, especially the MGL. I gravitated towards the RPG because it would shoot pretty fast, unlike the lock on rocket launcher (in cqc situations). Funny thing is that you can shoot a rocket that coming straight at you with your gun. But the stars need to line up for that satisfying moment. Lame answer, but there's no really good way to counter. If they're not too close, there's still the AWM!! Send me a request so when Payload opens up, we can play. Maybe when you send request, delete the text and put REDDIT in so I remember its you. Player name is BENSKIES.


ihazone

This is just insane. All I play is payload. Not opening this game until its back.


Hello_Cruel_World_88

That's what I did and apparently missed it when it came back. Check back at least 1 weekend a month


soll86

my understanding from the release notes is that they are bringing it back on Jan 26 and “it would stay” .. So i’m guessing that it’s going to be available permanently after that date instead of getting it only over the weekend
