Perfect Heist 2 · published · build 20668752
A new official map called Rome is included in this update. It's designed for 4 to 8 players and features an open employee area, lots of zones for robbers to transition from customer to employee clothing, and three vaults.
Inside the Upper Vault players will find a new Silver Cart object, which is too heavy to be looted and stashed inside the usual money bags. Robbers instead will have to push the cart towards the nearest escape van, adding a new layer to their heists.
This update also contains a brand-new robber class called Deaddrop. This breach class is currently only available when selecting the "Experimental" class pack and features a Briefcase Operated Bot, or BOB for short. BOB will drive towards the nearest vault to blow it up, and hide inside his briefcase if he gets spotted by a cop on the way there. While hiding inside his briefcase, he can't be damaged, forcing cops to break line of sight first to bait him out of hiding, before being able to shoot him.
Deaddrop can also hide money inside boxes, which will reward him with some interest on the money and reduced BOB cooldown, depending on the amount of money he currently has stored away.
The Swarm cop class has also received some changes, his Sweep-O cleaning robots are a lot smarter, and can now target Mechanic's barrel bombs as well as Madman's IED, rewarding Swarm with new Idea Spark resources each time they extinguish a fire or defuse a bomb, allowing him to spawn more gadgets mid-round. He has also been moved from the "Experimental" to the "Specialists" character pack, and his Winrate Stats as well as Steam Leaderboards are now online.
