Starbreeze insists it is “working hard” to keep servers online after Payday 3 players endured a second consecutive evening of disruption.

After a three-day early access period for some players, Payday 3 released on 21st September, but players have struggled to get online at peak times due to continuing server issues that have shutdown matchmaking, making it impossible to play the always-online heist shooter.

On launch day, Starbreeze took to its social media accounts to admit that it was “currently experiencing slow matchmaking” and was “investigating and working on a solution”.

    Yeah Day 1 was completely unplayable for our 4 man group. Like we don’t need matchmaking we’re in a party just roll a server up and go.

    Seems fine now since last night, had no issues getting games going.

      I envy you - was able to play a few matches shortly after release with friends, and havent been able to find a match since.

      Solo, with friends, public - doesnt matter, just sits and searches for upwards of 30 minutes before i opt for something else.

        I went to work but apparently some of my friends are still struggling to get into games so it’s not fixed yet, we just have caught a downtime period I guess.
