Gameplay of Payday 2 on Ubuntu 13.10, with almost maxed out graphics. Initially windowed-mode at 1600x900, then attempted fullscreen mode at 1920x1080.

In this video I am using Wine 1.7.14 from PlayOnLinux, and the game runs smoothly! Only issue is that it seems to crash when I try to skip the cinematics. Lighting is a bit too bright, but nothing unbearable.

Nothing special was done, Wine was set to Windows XP and I passed the -no-dwrite argument to PlayOnLinux for Steam text.

To my surprise, the game runs almost as if it's native! The only downside is that fullscreen doesn't seem to work (unless I fullscreen the Wine window).

Note that this is the Steam version of Payday 2.
