Payday 3 - Unlock Safes

When you come across a safe a dialer will appear on the screen. Safe codes are random guesses, you have to move the dialer to the point where it turns green. That will give you the first set of digits, and then repeat the process to get the second safe code. And then the third one. Here is a trick on how to speed up safe cracking.

Rotate the dial pressing A or D faster and stop when it starts shaking. The dial will not react on the wrong digit, but if you are near the right one will start vibrating. Slow down the dial rotation, you might be around 3-4 digits away from the right one. You can choose to rotate in one single direction, no need to waste your time moving it left or right. Go for an entire circle with max speed and then slow down as the safe’s dial starts shaking.
