I don't know, maybe one of these:

Probably not the last two, because they don't play during random hoards, only events. I listed them because they are more electronic.

Bad first impression with performance issues, server issues, crafting issues and premium store issues.
Then, very slow development hampering player retention.

>>723453360
For some reason Fatshark decided you MUST play with other people. There are no official bots and what's modded in is braindead. Which is weird because Vermintide had working bots.
>>
>>723457142
I suspect increased focus on guns fucks up the bots. If you think back on VT1 and 2 bots didn't really use ranged weapons.

I'm in Australia and I have to play the Hong Kong or Asia server if I want to actually play with others.

That's grim. I'm also an Aubong I last played 2 years ago when the game was still pulling 10k+ players and even then it wasn't great getting Aussies reliably. Was tempted to play again but not so much anymore. I do remember console players (thanks, forced crossplay) and Chinkoids being particularly bad. Just checked now, game has been getting a third to half of the players as it used to.

Nah mate. I don't try to speak with them infact I would much prefer silence but they insist of chatting with their insectoid chittering language and keep typing squares in the chat (and their names as well since I don't have the language font installed). Their mannerisms are very bizarre as well. They drop out of havocs instantly when they get downed and have no understanding of team work. It's just infuriating.

Bots are pretty good with single shot weapons in vermintide. They can reliably snipe specials and elites that are actual threats, rather than wasting all their ammo on enemies best killed in melee.
Darktide, for some unfathomable reason, decided to give bots weapons that are almost completely fucking useless against 90% of elites and specials. Hell come to think of it, it doesn’t even have a dedicated sniper weapon, just charge ups that don’t even have a scope.
>>
>>723451249
I love darktide so much but I can't help but feel Fatshart killed all hype for the game. They were constantly adding cool shit to Vermy while DT was on life support.

I also assume DT is basicslly dead now. Only a few autists playing who couldn't move on

It doesn't work that way due to the timed missions. Let say you get into an auric maelstrom mission when it has a timer of 20 minutes and a guy leaves after 20 minutes. The mission is wiped from the mission select screen and people can't enter it reliably unless you get lucky and the quickplay assigns someone to your team. Not to mention that havoc matches are all private and you are extremely fucked if someone leaves since bots are braindead.

Jesper Kyd is a master genius. Every single OST he composed is great, without exceptions. And he composed A LOT. His Darktide OST is truly something. I get chills and my blood sets on fire every time i hear Immortal Imperium
https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_mBrKIHfx8
The OST is basically the sole reason i still play Darktide after over 600 hours.

His State of Decay OST is criminally underrated too. As is the game itself. Very uniqe and atmospheric. I so wish they get it just right with the third one.
https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=kLoDa5KtrJk

And speaking of WH40k, Rogue Trader also has good OST. I even downloaded it after listening to it for over 300 hours, it blasting full on speakers while i played the game.

I have like 500h in this game. It has immaculate gameplay and sound design but the absolutely terrible thing about it is the devs refuse to just improve what matters. The game needs more MAPS more GUNS more ENEMIES more BOSSES it just needs more meat, more stuff.
And instead they spend two years introducing the most stupid frivolities like Mortis Trials or achievement farming or emotes, none of which actually adds more of what is best about the game. The devs are capable tapping into pure gold but they refuse to do it and instead waste their time peddling slop, it's maddening.
>>
>>723466952
The OST for the first one is more memorable, i agree. It's more of an addition to the collection, i suppose.
>>
>>723467057
>The game needs more MAPS more GUNS more ENEMIES more BOSSES it just needs more meat, more stuff.
100% agree. They need to pump out missions first and foremost. Doesn't even need to be any new plot points and much new voice overs. Just different mission in different environments and settings with different objectives. They're plenty of guns already and plenty of enemy types. But the game constructed in the way of missions and grinding in a sense. So it just NEED MORE FUCKING MISSIONS. New bosses would be great too. Heed this simple massage, Fatsharts. Please, i beg you.
>>
>>723467057
>it's maddening.
It truly is.
>>
Why is the Electrokinetic staff is so garbage? It lools kinda cool to use, but i don't feel any impact with it. I know Inferno is the best, and i actually really like the Blast. Strike is also okay. Make more staves, Fatshark, my Beloved commands thee.

>>723466832
Yes, but the idea is they're an in-between until people join your game. Private game, for example, needs to have one more real person so you effectively cannot play singleplayer bot-only matches. Darktide is constantly trying to match you with someone. Like my goddamn sister with her friends.

>>723467057
Fatshark just can't do it. Their pace was anemic when they only had Vermintide to support and it's only gotten worse since. Tangible CONTENT you're talking about takes the longest time to develop.
>>
>>723453360
small list in no particular order


1. No content - you are either in sandy outer hive or in manufactorum or in manufactorum but snowy or in some tunnels or in some tunnels with shit on walls. Vermintide 1 had a more diverse map pool

2. Randoms either run in a tight pack in front of me and I get left behind exploring the maps and all or they run away alone and die to dogs or catchers or whatever

3. PCs are boring because they have a preset personality type

4. Comissar missions are ass which you can't do with random people without proper communication (like discord or something) and using builds that support each other (some of them are not fun)

why is santa angry

>>723468298

Maybe it's because I've been playing these games since Vermintide 1, but that "battle trance" to me is just going through the motions.

also, funnily enough, that is a roadblock for obese sharks for making new classes - you need to pay a whole platoon of VAs in order to do the lines.

Darktide’s last man standing is such a gigantic downgrade from vermintide.

The intention is different. In VT2 you're supposed to be a badass who's hard to take down even when you're all alone. The game WANTS you to clutch.

In Darkturd you're not a hero or a legend in the making enacting a cool action movie scene, you're a reject stuck behind enemy lines in a mission gone wrong and you lost your toughness regen and team auras. The mood isn't supposed to be "you're the last hero and it's your time to shine", it's "things are becoming dire and the enemy is closing in, you're fucked" which admittedly leaves a lot less room for a good musical track.
