True to this, he voices a great amount of pride in his handiwork when spoken to in the garage, even going so far as to claim that no one could have put the escape van together better than he can. Houston is in charge of maintaining the crew's escape van following the introduction of the new Safe House, hinting at some experiences as a mechanic or at least a reasonable amount of knowledge on automobiles.Although Houston takes very good care of his guns, he appears to be forgetful when it comes to packing ammo, as he always either runs critically low on ammo, or out completely in every live-action short that features him in combat.Houston is somewhat of a control freak, cleaning his guns constantly to reduce the risk of them jamming, not wanting to leave anything to chance.According to Bain, Houston takes heisting very seriously he prefers to drink root beer to keep his focus sharp and can say when three minutes has passed on the second without looking at his watch.On top of that, his character is noted to be highly obsessed with efficiency, following strict personal routines and good maintenance, most of which are indicative traits of a mildly autistic individual. Based on his character descriptions and quotes, Houston seems to have some level of dislike towards large crowds of civilians (dominating) or having to talk with people he's unfamiliar with (pagers), and is easy to frustrate when things don't go according to plan or if he's caught outside of his element (broken drill, special units appearing, etc.).Pete Gold has also returned to provide the voice of his original character and the new name, Houston, was given to the new character as to avoid confusions. Derek Ray was cast as Hoxton in the PAYDAY Web Series before portraying the character in-game as well.ĭue to the overwhelming demands from the PAYDAY Community to bring the old heister back, Overkill Software has published the backstory of Hoxton's arrest that leads up to the release of the Hoxton Breakout heist and re-introduction of the former Hoxton. Originally, Houston was created as a complete replacement for Hoxton, as Pete Gold wasn't asked to reprise his role for unknown reasons. The name "Houston" was "invented" by the fugitive on the spot to "get his name back" and to solve the "fucking problem" on their hands. He committed his first major felony at the age of 24 and the stakes have only increased since.īefore the breakout of the former crew member, Houston bore the alias of Hoxton.
He needed to gather larger and larger sums of money to keep the loan sharks at bay. His debts grew, as did his collection of enemies from years of being a swindler.
His life style turned him to a life of cons and burglary. Houston could never hold a job even if his life would depend on it. Houston, as depicted in the Web Series Description
