This is probably gonna go unnoticed, but whatever, I haven't posted anything in this subreddit for a while, and I need to say something.

I think all posts talking about hackers should be removed or at the very least forbid talking about the topic. It's the same old broken record, "Hacker in global chat", "Hacker here", "Hacker there". Everyone is already aware, so I don't think even more posts complaining about it in a place where we can't do anything about is necessary at all. I think there's already a rule where users are forbidden from distributing/posting about Payback 2 hacks, so why not establish this aswell? This subreddit has very great potential, because it has many passionate and dedicated people taking care of it and moderating it, and I believe if the moderators were to forbid people from posting about hackers all of the time, we'd filter out a huge cluster of garbage off the subreddit.

Thanks,

This is the continuation. Read the first part to understand the storytelling better. Another thing I should mention is that this storyline will not include Ready or Not, Gangster Tripping, Going for Gold and so on. It will have about 10-15 missions for each city, each mission builds on the last, so make sure to read them all to not lose context.

Summary of the previous missions:

The player ambushes a funeral of a rival gang, they get mad and start looking for you. You are tasked to lure the gang members to the payphones you do missions at, rig one of the payphones with a bomb, then blow it up when they come around. After doing this, you go hide at Ray, an associate of yours and a crimelord of Freedom City. You do a couple of jobs for Ray, help his folks rob a bank and retrieve the money to Harry in a secret vehicle that supposedly "delivers heavy packages". The rival gang notices that the people in the black limo are associates of Ray. Ray later finds out that Harry had betrayed him and fled to Corona City. He took some of the money we delivered to him with himself, except a few hundred thousands. We successfully retrieve the remaining money and our only goal now is to KILL HARRY.

Mission #5 - "Seeking Revenge"

Ray: I can't believe Harry sold me out. Why would he do that? I've been nothing but a loyal friend to him, and he does this shit to me?! I am definitely not going to Corona City anytime soon, my work in Freedom City is not yet done. Anyway, I heard Harry has a backup garage located near Jon's garage. Jon has been spying on him for a while, because he knew Harry would do something like this, apparently he's known to be an ungrateful and unloyal brat to his associates! This backup garage has a lower risk of getting found, so he has stored his most valuable vehicles and other things there. I want you to go over there, and collect all of his vehicles, Jon will have a packer truck prepared outside of the garage so you can drive all of the vehicles onto the truck and retrieve them back to me.

After arriving at Harry's secret garage

Jon: Hey there pal. I'm Jon. I've been spying on Harry for quite some time now, he has all of his more valuable vehicles stored there. He knew that his main garage, that was near the payphones you were taking missions from earlier, is more likely to get robbed. His most valuable vehicles are this black Hotrod, the yellow Vapour over there and that maroon Evo. Drive them onto my packer truck and I'll drive us to Ray. He'll store these at his place.

After driving the black Hotrod onto the truck

Jon: Great! Now get the next one, and hurry!

After driving the yellow Vapour onto the truck

Jon: Awesome! Let's get the Evo and get the fuck out of here!

After driving the maroon Evo onto the truck

Jon: Alright, let's head out. Try not to fall out of the truck tho, I'm going at like 150 km/h. These cars are not very legal, don't want the pigs to notice us and then put us behind bars, I am NOT ready for that.

After arriving at Ray's garage

Ray: Heeeyyy! You made it. Quickly get them in here before anyone sees us.

After storing the valuable vehicles in the garage

Ray: Thank you boys. These sure look expensive. I gotta think of a use for these though.

Jon: You can do whatever with them. Just don't give them away or expose them to anyone, haha!

Ray: Yeah, of course. I'm not dumb. Thanks again, I'll see you around.

Mission #6 - "Ray's Day"

Ray: Now that I possess Harry's most prized and valuable vehicles, I have to put them to use. Surely Harry will find out soon enough that he did not get his vehicles from the secret garage to Corona City before he left. He thinks neither Jon or I know about the garage, but he was wrong to assume that. Harry is back in town, just landed actually. He will most definitely be going to his secret garage to take his cars to Corona City to be gone for good, but, the vehicles will not be there! I've already prepared for this though, and have made almost identical replicas of these cars, except their value is little to none. Take these to his secret garage so he thinks no one stole them and that we still have no idea about his secret garage. He is in a rush, so he will not notice that they're fake, hahahaha!"

After taking the first fake vehicle to the garage

"Alright, great. Now go get the second one and park it perfectly in its original place so Harry doesn't notice a thing!"

After taking the second fake vehicle to the garage

"Very good. Get the last one and skedaddle!"

After taking the last fake vehicle to the garage

"Get the fuck out of here! Harry is almost here! He cannot see you leave or this plan is OVER!"

After arriving back at Ray's

Ray: Great job, kid. He will be taking his FAKE vehicles to Corona City now! The folks there will not be happy to see him with some knockoff wheels.

Mission #7 - "Quicky, Mart!"

Ray: There's a Quik-e-Mart grocery store not far from here. Get over there and show them who's boss!

After entering the Quik-e-Mart

Cashier: Robber! Somebody call 911! Help!

You: Don't make this harder than it has to be, give up the money and I won't hurt you.

The cashier doesn't listen, so you end up blowing her head off.

You take the money and run, as the alarm goes off.

After robbing the Quik-e-Mart

"Go! To Ray's garage now!"

After getting back to Ray

Ray: Oo-hoo! Some sweet moneyyy! Good job, man. Here's 20 thousand green ones, get over to the local weapon store and get yourself some equipment, I have some serious jobs for you from now on.

Mission #8 - "Kill or get Killed"

Ray: Hope you got yourself some weaponry. Listen, some punk who lives by the beach in some triangle looking house is threatening me, says he will murder me for making Harry leave Freedom. How ironic! He's the one who sold us out! I am almost certain that's one of Harry's little bitches. Get over there, and make him eat his own words!

After arriving at the guy's house

You: So, you that friend of Harry's?

Tom: The name's Tom. Yes, it's me. What the fuck are you in my house for? Do you want me to kick your ass too, little one?

You: There will be no ass-kicking from you today. Quite the opposite actually.

Tom: What the fuck is that supposed to mea-

You slice his throat, leaving him there, bleeding, with no one there to help or even witness it.

After killing Tom

"Haha! Great job! Get back to Ray now."

After arriving back at Ray's garage

Ray: You took care of him? Great. I did not need some dumbass whining about Harry when HE was the one who betrayed me. I'm not sure how many more of his guys are crawling around Freedom City, but must be atleast a few, Harry didn't say a word to anyone about leaving Freedom to go to Corona City.

Mission #9 - "Goodbye Freedom, Hello Los Francos"

You enter Ray's hideout, but Ray is not there as usual. There is a note on one of his cars:

UNKNOWN: We got Ray. If you want him back, get your ass over to Los Francos City. It's a 2 hour flight from Freedom, if you want to fly. I don't got much time tho, so make it quick before Ray pays."

You take a plane to Los Francos City, and recieve a message from an unknown contact containing a location, perhaps it's the whereabouts of where Ray is being held hostage?:

UNKNOWN: I hear you're in Francos now. Good. Get over to the hotel, I'm in Room 7. Knock before you come in."

You knock the door of Room 7. A tall, masked man opens the door.

UNKNOWN: Come in.

Ray is tied to a chair, his mouth is taped off with duct tape and he is missing skin from his right shoulder.

UNKNOWN: Now listen here. You will do exactly as I say and follow my orders. Every time you disobey me, Ray loses a bit of his precious skin! You wouldn't like that now, would you?

Apparently, the masked man is an infamous serial killer and torturer in Los Francos City. He uses a very brutal torturing technique, skinning. He captures different people, takes them to his room in the hotel, ties them to a chair and tapes their mouth, so the other hotel visitors don't hear any of the stuff he is doing. Then, he calls the relatives or friends of the person he has captured and commands them to come to his room at the hotel. You will be forced to obey his missions and commands, or your loved one will slowly lose their skin.

1. Payback 3 should not include a Multiplayer option and should be completely a Singleplayer game.

2. The original Payback was a bigger success than Payback 2 and is overall a better entry in the Payback series.

3. Speedrunning is the most underrated activity in Payback 2.

4. Payback 3 won't satisfy people. It will be talked about for a month or two, and the hype will die out, everyone will start talking about the flaws of it and complain.

5. Nighttime cities are better than daytime cities.

6. Payback 2 was way better prior to "The Physics Update". (v2.93)

That's it. Thanks for reading and feel free to agree or disagree.

I'm trying to complete either of these games with RetroAchievements, but I don't know which one to start with. Which one would be easier to do first as a beginner?

Is there a way to increase the spawns in a multiplayer mob farm? I've lit up everything around the area and there are still no mobs spawning and we desperately need gunpowder for fireworks.

I have 5 piglins trapped in boats next to my gold farm to barter for some leather and gravel. Every piglin is friendly except one, who is randomly shooting at me with his crossbow when I kill the pigmen in the gold farm. Is there some obvious thing I'm missing here?

does anyone know how i can get some iron before making an iron farm? iron farms need a lot of hoppers and at the moment i only have 5 hoppers, 4 of which i used for my mob farm, i was thinking of making toolsmith, weaponsmith and armorer villagers but maybe there's a better way?

(i'm playing skyblock infinite btw)
