RAID: World War II

This game is considerably hard to review for a couple of reasons...
1. Yes, it has the same engine as Payday 2 and quite a LOT of similarities for that reason. However, this also means you will probably enjoy it if you enjoy Payday 2.
2. However, it has a number of features and mechanics that differ from Payday 2. It is NOT just a reskin nor a clone, and still feels like a somewhat fresh experience for a Payday 2 veteran.
3. There are bugs and other annoyances, but they are very rarely gamebreaking. I also can NOT verify other reviewers' claims of crashing.
4. A huge bonus for this game actually stems from it's similarities with Payday 2: It can be modded just like Payday 2 and many mods can and already have been ported over to this game. From Bugfixes over Quality of Life changes up to gameplay changing mods, there is a lot you can use. A nice starting point is this group I created and it's "Unofficial RAID WW2 Community Patch":
5. Sadly it's true that this game has been abandoned by the devs (publisher's choice though), and due to lack of new content the player base is rather small. Modding as well as community efforts such as my group linked above are the only thing left... however, the people I have found so far in this game are very nice, and I keep trying to get more friends from Payday 2 & other games to start playing it.
In conclusion, this game does have it's problems but it can be quite fun. It's a coop shooter with RPG elements and a WW2 setting. It might not be worth the price tag it had upon release, and whether the current pricing is fine with you is your decision alone. During the last sale it was 75% off (meaning a price tag of 5 €), and that is most definitely fair.

Still waiting for Payday 3 :)

It's really not as bad as people want to say.
The main issues are the lack of players and that the game will never be updated.
Yes, the game has some issues, but it could have been mostly fixed through updates if the game's launch had not failed so hard.
Yes, the game is dead, but if you are ok to play alone most of the time and have some occasional good time with a stranger, it's actually pretty good !
I'm having a lot of fun with this game, and it would have been awesome if it received the same attention than Payday 2.
The main issue why this game failed is a lack of communication / advertisement on launch. I'm pretty sure that with better graphics and better communication, this game would have received the love it deserves.
Be aware : this game is not for everyone, but if you like Payday and want some fresh air, this one may be what you need.

I dont know that I would pay full price for this but on sale its a pretty solid pick if you have friends to play with. Maps are shorter than PTH and Payday 2 so if thats your thing then go ahead. Its got plenty of content as is.

I dont usually write reviews, but i think this game really deserves one.
I cant recommend it at full price, but at sale, definely worth it, if you like Payday 2 and world war 2 themed games. Sadly it has its bugs n stuff, but its really enjoyable and fun game. You can find players from time to time, but it deserves more players. :)

This game is great fun, If you enjoyed payday 2 or even payday the heist I highly recommend giving this game a shot. Its a breath of fresh air from star breeze and Lion games. you run a variety of different raids that range across killing generals and robbing Nazi banks. (Raids are heists if you are from payday) a lot of fun to play solo and even more fun playing with friends. You have a variety of skills that you can level and builds that you can make when you level different characters up. all character have different skills which i find the coolest part of the game because it shows good promise for different build variation just like payday. You unlock weapon upgrades from using the weapon and doing challenges for said weapon for example get X amount of kills with the mouser pistol to unlock the extended mags. You can upgrade your bunker which is your main hub using gold bars which you collect from different raids. There's different cosmetics for your characters. Now I do want to say if your going into this game thinking its a direct carbon copy of payday, its not. you don't have ammo bags you don't have med bags and you don't have equipment you put down. instead you have the skills from the different characters that are like powers. the character I am currently playing, his skill makes his shots 100% accurate and deal more damage and it is on a cool-down definitely keep that in mind. All in all I highly recommend this game it is a ton of fun. I hope this review helped you understand the game a bit more.

Honestly not bad for some mindless fun here and there.
Game is basically Payday, but WW2 and dumbed down a bit.
Picked it up for $2 on sale and it's been well worth more than that.
Game is basically like Payday, run around map and do objectives while hordes of enemies spawn around you.
Only thing is in this one they have Dog Tags spread around every map and you have to find and collect them all to get the best xp and loot at the end of a mission, but at the harder difficulties or playing solo, this gets very hard to try and look for them as enemies are constantly spawning.
So yea, if you want some mindless nazi shooting with some friends or by yourself, just pick this game on sale cause I'm sure it only be a few dollars again.
