Starbreeze Apologizes for Delayed Payday 3 Patch and Announces Free Content Updates
Despite the dwindling player count in Payday 3, those who remain are eagerly anticipating the first major patch to address various issues. In a recent blog post, developer Starbreeze has provided an update on the status of this patch.
Discovery of Critical Errors Delayed Patch Rollout
In a conciliatory tone, Starbreeze acknowledged their absence from social media for a few days and then got straight to the point: the delay in releasing the first patch. In a brief statement, it was announced that ‘critical errors’ were discovered in Starbreeze’s update pipeline, which significantly hindered the team’s ability to deliver the patch earlier.
Improvements to be Made for More Reliable Patching
Looking forward, Starbreeze plans to implement changes to strengthen their patching process and prevent similar delays in the future.
Free Content Updates as a Token of Apology
As an apology, Starbreeze will release a series of free content updates over the next two months leading up to the end of the year.
Will These Efforts Be Enough?
But will these actions be enough to appease the community, considering the delay in the patch and the continued decline in player count?
