Darktide class leak

Why do people pretend to care about this low level trash?
>>
>>736769756
Skitarii Ranger
>>
>>736770828
The best 40k stories are when space marines are periphery at most
>>
>>736769816
I think it's easily the best PvE multiplayer shooter. Doesn't require a billion hours of autism to play. You can get through everything except the endgame scaling difficulties with low level weapons since gear stats don't really matter except in endgame difficulties so you can focus on just learning mechanics. Best sound design in a Warhammer game by far, guns are super loud. Gets just silly enough to replay the missions. Very ''on the ground'' POV so you can get a good view of the mega structures and shit in the background.
>>
>>736769756
>still no playable xenos
I don't care.
>>
>>736769816
not unless you can pick it up at a steep discount to help offset the greedy ass microtransactions built into the game.

space marines are boring and gears of war does space marines better than any w40k game ever has or ever will

I cut down way more hordes of enemies in Darktide than I do in SM2.
Plus you have some level of build variety in Darktide.

Dark Heresy has kroot living on a hive world
Necromunda has squats and the fish guys
if Grendel can put up with unsanctioned psykers and blatant heretics they can probably tolerate a tau or ork merc
>>
>>736769816
Yes, difficulty 3 and higher makes the game go from a cake walk to actually being really hard and requiring team work. The damn library mission on just difficulty 3 took me 30 mins or longer when playing on difficulty 1 or 2 would be less than 10.
>>
>>736772471
>blatant heretics
Which heretics are actively working with us? Loose Cannon is mostly a criminal
>>
>>736771514
Because the plot says so.
>>
>>736772572
You could maybe make an argument for Hadron as there are some people that consider the Ad Mech heretics for not adhering one hundred percent to the imperial cult, but even those people see how difficult it would be to find and eliminate other heretics without the use of any technology. So the tech priests get a pass...for now.

You can literally choose being a heretic as your origin when making a character. Granted, it's implied the accusation is likely bullshit if you want to imagine it that way, but still, your character was officially branded a heretic and sentenced to death.
>>
>>736770786
hey, dude... that's not fair... they added one new melee weapon and one new gun that would be redundant if this game just had a "semi-auto or full-auto" mode button... and who cares what your character looks like... that's why they made you make your own character... so you could not care about how they look... look, just buy premium currency, okay?
>>
>>736778353
well it's not better than DRG but it's better than the rest of them. Helldivers 2 is nice but I have no idea why so many people latched on to it so strongly.
>>
>>736769816
No because the people you're going to be queuing with know all the maps and rush everything making it impossible for you to learn to play the game. Nobody new plays this game and sometimes you will wait in a queue for 30 minutes and if you're really late in the night good luck if you even find a match.

Like 80% of the moderm 40k community only care about Marines and only wants content that wanks Marines. They don't care about other factions outside of how they interat with Marines and will happily ignore entire decades of content for other factions outside of the times Marines showed up to beat said factions.
The merest hint of a Primarch generates more 'hype' than entire major release waves of models and lore for other factions.
40k is genuinely fucked.

It's Marines all the way down.

Yeah, because noone cares about the lore of the Eldar. They only care if they get in conflict with the humans.

>>736788427
People keep saying this, but Darktide got powercreeped to the point players one-shot everything instantly. There is no need to duel anything. Entire game is braindead
This is especially telling in boss fights which in Darktide boil down to spamming left click only. Meanwhile in SM2 bosses have different stages, actual movesets and force players to do objectives at this same time. SM2 combat has far more depth.

Not really. Low level is too easy and what you bring doesn't matter, high level basically forces you to bring ways to effectively deal with carapace armor or you will die and fatshark has refused to address this balancing issue making most weapons useless. The new mode is also garbage, got tired of it in two evenings.

vt2 is good now also playing new classes is fun, even though they dealt with darktide poorly. I will buy the class just because it's fun, but I know they won't release anything that great form now on content wise..

>>736796916
if this game is anything like ratclick the problem is that weapons good against horde enemies are shit against elites and bosses, but enemies that are good against bosses don't have enough ammo to use on hordes. ideally you would be able to have two guns that cover each other's weaknesses like autogun + plasma or lasgun + bolter, but fatshit is obsessed with melee combat and only lets you have one gun (as far as I know) so you are forced to use your melee weapon to cover the other dimension which is gay and lame.
>>
>>736778353
SM2 feels so much worse to play than Darktide, blows my mind that people play the multiplayer at all.
>>
>>736779552
I initially felt the same, the concept is retarded. but then again, the entire concept of Darktide is retarded. It should just be space marines and other heavy hitters instead of characters like this.

But having said that and accepting the game for what it is, Hive Scum is probably my favorite class to play now.
>>
>>736798907
MUH SPEES MARINEES
>>
>>736798981
Well yeah, if you're making a -tide game where you cut through endless hordes of enemies, being a space marine or some other heavy hitter in the lore makes way more sense than being a hive ganger with a needle pistol.

You know it. I know it. Everybody knows it.
The only Darktide character that even halfway makes sense is the Ogryn and it's the weakest fucking character in the game.
>>
>>736798859
i totally disagree. Space Marine 2 feels way cooler, it's just bogged down by bad melee combat and QTEs.
>>
>>736799082
I was not grabbed by SM2 at all. The weapons felt like complete shit after Darktide. The bolters are a joke.

Yes, if you like 1st person action games. Best combat on the market imo. The combat pacing is several times faster than SM2 and HD2. And the skill ceiling is in the stratosphere. I got 2000 hours and i'm still improving.

Is this worth getting if i dont have any friends to play with?
I have almost 600 hours on Deep Rock Galactic, if they are any similar.
>>
>>736798907
I just don't like the price of having customizable character that was paid at the expense of actually having personalities and backstories. It's why Vermintide characters are vastly superior to fucking randos in Darktide.
>>
>>736800904
Mind you there are no bots in unmodded game as the game is actively trying to pair you with real people.
>>
>>736800904
It's fun if you don't mind playing with randoms.
>>
>>736800904
I would guess about 80%+ of the playerbase is playing solo, probably higher
The bots are completely worthless so it's either play with randoms or be miserable
Most guys are alright, some are too confident and die away from the team but most people are in the thick of it with you
>>
>>736800904
In a loose fashion you could consider it similar since they're both playing by the L4D formula, and yeah, you could still have a pretty good time with Dorktide just doing random matchmaking since the pubs are pretty well behaved. Worst case you run into an Ogyrn larper talking about protecting little uns

>>736800547
It's okay since you're functionally an inquisitorial acolyte with high value gear mauling through 5pt chaff
>>
>>736800904
i exclusively play with randos, because my friends got filtered once they reached medium difficulty

I don't have much DRG experience but basically darktide is 99% linear maps and you play it for the combat.

if you can get it and the DLC classes on sale, yeah. you'll probably get at least 20 hours out of it before you get sick of running down the same dark, rusty cooridors over and over again and realize that half the armory would be redundant if you could just switch between single shot and full auto like you can in Killing Floor and many other shooters.

do not go into this expecting a lot of gun options, either. it's gonna be:
>single shot rifle
>burst rifle
>full auto rifle
>laser variants of the above
>semi-auto bolter
>pump shotgun
>double barrel shotgun
>an SMG
>bolt pistol
>laser pistol
>revolver
i think there's one plasma or melta weapon, and the Ogyrn has a couple exclusive weapons. also, you cannot deploy with two guns or two melee weapons. if you wanna use a pistol, that is going to be your only firearm for the whole mission.

The game is fucking god awful with randoms until you max out your character level and start playing on hardest difficulty. Thats the only semblance of actual teamwork.
>>
>>736802048
it's like 13 guns, bro, and 6 of them are the same model but different firing modes. that's not a lot. there are only like 8 unique models, and 2 of those are pistols you probably won't use.

>>736790882
Randoms are awful until you level up your character and start playing on hardest difficulty. But you are probably such a shitter at videogames you won't even like auric.
>>
my favourite thing about darktide guns is that they have like 0 manual texture making, it's just straight from the automated/procedural substance designer pipeline. All weapons have extremely uniform weathering, and all of them have the same edge-chipping effect that's also extremely uniform, on every edge - so much that weapons look like they have outlines. It doesn't help that they have edges chipped in places that make no fucking sense, like the big grenade case for ogryns, with that inset on top

It annoys me to no end how they made these really detailed environments, objects and characters, everything feels like it's a super high poly geometry export. Yet they cut corners in stupidest way, reuse materials and assets everywhere. Clothes, guns and recolors especially suffer from that. They choose the most inoffensive, generic student tier zbrush portfolio designs for everything. 'How to make a game ready asset for production style' ass results, instead of something actually artistic.

Hive scum has weaknesses too. Just one mistake such as trapper net/mutant grab which can be relatively not so lethal for other classes mean instant death for scum.

And it's especially funny, because after initial difficulty, you pretty much only look at hoards of enemies in your face. Covered in absurd amount of VFX, while you rotate around like a beyblade trying to navigate this mess.
Not to mention epic map modifiers like "What if you don't see anything behind green gas tanking your performance?"
Darktide always makes me think of modern hollywood blockbusters wasting million $ and 1 year to develop a model of a cool monster. Only to make it appear for 30 seconds, in the darkness, surrounded by a cloud of shit particles, smeared by blur. Like think before you commit to artistic and game design choices jfc, so annoying

Fatshark's already moved onto their next game. And the only benefit Darktide may gain from that fact is that an Unreal Engine 5 launch is gonna be more disastrous from then, than Darktides was.

No, I stopped playing two years ago because it was obvious they're going to take another decade to finish the game. Never thought of installing it again since they released new classes and charged money for them. Had fun before they started nerfing everything and buffing HP values of enemies.

There are literally dozens of factions within the Imperium alone that could feasibly be slicing through hordes of mooks.

It's a good game, you'll easily get 150-200 hours out of it before you get bored, 1000+ if you really like the gameplay. Like many actively updated games, the people who play it year round get sick of the devs' shit. It's especially bad with fatshart who take off like like half the year because summer is hot and winter is cold so we can't make it into the office.
