PAYDAY 2 Tournaments - design discussion

Hey heisters!



As a part of the Hype Train event, a tournament with a prize pool of 250,000$ was announced. We're happy to announce that we're partnering with DreamHack in creating tournaments in PAYDAY 2. We received a lot of feedback from the community that lead us to make the decision of splitting the prize pool into several events. This will allow more people to participate than having one event with a single prize pool. We will continiously improve and change the design the tournament format and we'll try different formats as we go along. We now invite the community to discuss this with us here.



Going forward, we'd like to hear what you guys think is the best format to compete in PAYDAY 2. What do you think would be a good tournament concept for PAYDAY 2? How would you like to compete in it?



Here are the events we have scheduled for so far:

DreamHack Winter, Jönköping Sweden. 26-29 November

DreamHack Moscow, Moscow Russia. 5-6 December - Moscow event cancelled by DreamHack, will be switched to antother event later in the year.

DreamHack Leipzig, Leipzig Germany. 22-24 January

DreamHack Austin, Austin USA. 6-8 May



Please note: We plan to have many more events than the four listed above.



More information about the first event will come soon.



Thanks!
