congrats shitters, you made the game easier and cheated yourself out of an enjoyable experience
>bolt pistol with Surgical 4 available for MelkiesThis thing gonna be not shit with the buff? It looks like it's getting some nice changes, but I'm honestly not sure they'll save it.
>>494953191Presumably.
>>494952947So game is fun now?
>>494952947But its harder now
>>494953191>This thing gonna be not shit with the buff?they said they were gonna rare the minimum score for the weapons/curios so they have higher modifiers
>>494952947>can now hold the line with a good team instead of constantly running and kiting>even reasonable to run zero support weapon buildsMy only (1) complaint with the game currently is there's no fucking saved loadouts. There's too much I want to use.
>>494954852>rareraise** ffs
Post your last game's scoreboard. I like how much of a sniper I feel like with the Helbore. I still want to try the MKIII more, but I used the bayonet so much this game on Ragers and Mutants. It's hard to live without the stab and I had a hard enough time with it.
so since we're allowed to talk about games other than darktide now, when is the next /copeg/ BG3 session? we only got to the first part of act 2 before the group fell apart... can it be reborn?
>>494956531I'd be down to join if you can get some others, I don't wanna play a duo session
>>494956107The helbore ironsights make me want to hurt myself just so I'm in control of when the pain stops.
>do one melee attack>get hit 10 times>get hit 20 times>armor is fucking useless>health regain on hit does nothingwhy is my reject stronger than my spess marine
>>494956921weapon customization really helps with helbore and the other snipers. they all suck so hard
>>494956531This is dark tide general sar, no other games for bloody sake!
>>494957108reject is named and blessed by the god emperor, spess marine is generic and condemned by his most holy inquisition
>>494957108cause players have been overbufed to shit and are about to get another round of all around buffs
>>494957108the emperor's grungiest hobos fight His toughest battles and need the most help
Is helldivers back?
>>494956107Reposting the last /coopg/ squad's scoreboard from a few threads ago>spoiler, everyone sucks
>>494957480Yep, and darksissies are seething, look at >>494952947
>>494957480They unironically fixed everything.
>Powersword gets deserved nerf>community outcry, they insist everything else should be on the old powerswords level instead, "nerfs arent fun in a pve game">Fatshark notes this>next patch will buff the plasma, psykers, dueling swords and nerf zealots and ogryns???
>>494957762GOOD JOB, VET-KUN!
>>494957762>this is /copeg/'s strongest rejectsGRIM... but still stronger than SM2 marines kek
>>494956531I'll join this weekend if you let me run around and do my own thing when I wantI hate fags who force the group to stick on eachother's ass the entire playthrough
>>494958060is this AI slop revenge for me making fun of the animu posting days ago?
>>494957118That mod made me crash every 2 games so I gave up on it.
>>494952601so Space Marine 2 has been fun, but there's really just not enough content. I enjoyed Vermintide, is Darktide worth the pickup? Is there more content than SM2 has?
>>494959121Wait until the 26th
>>494958060Psyker-chan, you're cute and all... but uh... we need to feed you to the emperor.
>>494956817I could prob get a friend to join that'll gets us to 3. I'd prefer to play with people from this gen, cuz the BG general is packed with control freaks and weirdos>>494957243Sar!>>494958498Do what you want but at least help us with the bigger battles and what not. All the smaller side quests and build editing you can do at your own leizure, we can figure out if we wanna do "good" or "bad" choices ingame, idc what path we do
smitesmigger
>>494960232check back this weekend, if you're still down and have a lobby going I'll join o7
>>494959121It's vermintide in space (rusted corridors) so if you like one you'll like the other. Wait until the 26th though.
>>494962726>No pointed hoods for zealotShame...
>>494962726is bane supposed to be the plague orgyn?
>>494963857Mutant
>>494958059What are you talking about? I didn't see any zealot nerfs besides Swift Certainty getting a slap.
>>494958059ogryn is literal braindead nigger tier easy, any nerf it gets won't make it any worse lmao
>>494957273I read this as >spess marine are a generic condom used by his most holy inquisitionthoughts?
>>494964904The Bruiser nerf is like "why did you even bother" tier t b h
It seems like coopdivers truly fucking won. I kneel.>*POV of you sucking my cock*
they made the scythe actually sound like a laser gundarktide lost
>>494956921I kind of have that same problem too. I do a lot of guess shooting lol. >>49495776212 revives, very nice. /coopg/ players willing to play with each other are cute!
>play zealot for the first time in months>go super fast> get ahead because my sense of distance is messed up>slide right into a trapperAnd then I go back to vet where everything is just slower and I feel more in control. Zealot feels like an ADHD machine.
any rat clickers or pox clickers in the house tonight? I wanna play with copersNA btw
>>494971887most cohp-gee users are EU and are pretty much all asleep, don't hold your breath
>shit tide is leaving gamepasswell, the endless tormenting people for a dollar a month was good, but all good things come to an end
>>494972794Retard. nigger and retard.
>>494973038FUCK yes, the ruthless barrel shooting in aurics WILL continue
>>494973293Apologize.
>>494973408only if you join my aurics
Hey I heard Helldivers is fun now let's reinst->80 GoCrafting update when?
>>494973546soon
>>494973546right now
>>494973546just a week away!
Trying to get into this Payday 3 shite because shooting cops and robbing banks sounds fun and its on sale. But what the fuck is with the DLCs? is this a paradox interactives game? Is there some way to just get them for free like dragging files into a folder or something?
>>4949735468/9 days, depending on your timezone
>>494974798The chapter DLCs are bundles. The list is bloated since they made it so you can buy each component of a chapter individually. Only the weapon packs and the heists are worth anything but honestly the heists in 3 are total dogshit. You should just buy Payday 2 and use creamapi for the dlc.
>>494956107love me voidstike
>>494976053Thanks, my buddies all want to get into 3, so I'll give this a go and see if I like it enough to get into 2 later, since I heard from everyone that it's an older but way better game. Though, if I were to get any of the DLCs in 3, which of them are recommended?
>>494977518Just go with the base game to start. They've added a handful of free heists since launch. It should be enough to let you decide if the DLC heists are worth it for you. They aren't anything groundbreaking, just more of the base game. None of the DLC weapons are meta defining so you can just get the ones that look fun.
>>494977407Well done sibling. Voidstrike is so fun. What blessings do you like? I can't tell if I like Warp Nexus plus Surge or if I want the one that decreases peril on headshot.
>>494977407Well done sibling, thats the way!
>>494971739>it's the class's fault I can't pace myselfLook at this fucking nerd who doesn't wanna go fast.
Am I schizo or did someone say there's a new build planner for Darktide
I'm not a schizo
Real schizo hours in /coopg/
Why am I talking to myself in MY /coopg/ thread
A humble OC peddler here. Sometimes if I'm feeling really autistic I'll do this gag over voicechat in the game when playing as an Ogryn.
I have two personalities: schizo and average /coopg/ anon
I should stay out of my aurics...
SOMEONEPOST THEIR AURICSNOW!!!!!!!
>>494979667Warp nexus and flurry all day every dayThe problem with surge is that if you're going to critical hit, anything outside of an ogryn is already dead. That second shot is a complete waste on the vast majority of the enemy roster.
>almost a week until battle psykerfinna fuck this game up
anyone want to play darktide?
>>494983138I wanna play darktide
>>494983138I just got done playing for the day. I'll probably play a little tomorrow or on Thursday.
>>494983191im only lvl 17, can i invite you?
>>494983138I can't I'm creating my character for our new D&D campain, true strike is my favorite cantrip now
>>494983413
>>494952947oh no, more than one weapon is viable, the humanity!
Ogryns like this look way cooler than the mildly-handsome-normal-human-with-beard ogryn faces we got
>>494985080Yeah I'm not sure why the ogryns we have are so wholesomechungusified
needs more ugly ass ogre options in darktide
>>494985652Yeah, you should send them a picture of YOUR FACE lmao gottem etc
I miss the old outcast engiBombs are fucking gay.
>>494989358I love the changes outside the bombs
so when will /tfwg/ be a thing?
>>494998828you saw that joke on /v/eddit? you should go back
>>494999049>I'm too morally superior to go to other boardsno you're not
>>494966391How does a laser gun sound like IRL though?

Surely next week when the crafting update comes this thread will move faster than /hdg/
>>494989358>>494990413What changed? VT2 actually got updated?
>>494973546Upgrade your computer third worlder. 1TB SSDs and 4GB HDDs are dirt cheap now.
>>495011642>4GB HDDsDidn't know they still make them today.
>>495011642it's because I have so many better games installed
>>495007834My guess is "The Forever Winter general" but that doesn't make sense since most people said the game was turboCACA after trying it on early access
>>495007834>>495013442>tfwgThat feel when girlfriend. He's telling us he finally duped some poor girl into his clutches. Everyone congratulate anon!
>>495012717NOOOOOOOOOO IT CAN'T BE SHIT ASMONGOLD SAID THE DEVS WERE BASED BECAUSE THEY MADE A VIDEO SAYING THERE WOULD BE NO PAID DLC AND SHIEEEEET! AAAAAAAAAAAAH SAVE ME TOTALBISCUIT!
>>495013871was meant for >>495013442
>>495013871the game looks like total jank and it should have never transitioned from artbook to videogame
I'm playing vermintide and I kinda like it. I see that there is dlc with maps and weapons. Which ones should I get? Or should I get them at all?I did some reasearch and people tell to get >Warhammer: Vermintide 2 - Back to Ubersreik and>Warhammer: Vermintide 2 - Shadows Over Bögenhafenbut are confliced on >Warhammer: Vermintide 2 - Winds of Magic>Warhammer: Vermintide 2 - Forgotten Relics
>>495021532>Warhammer: Vermintide 2 - Winds of MagicNew sidemod no one sane playsHighest difficulty but doesn't spare you from retards sometimesEach class gets a new interesting weaponRecently the cool weave (the sidemod) skins got unlocked for normal games>Warhammer: Vermintide 2 - Forgotten RelicsNew weapons, most are OP.Saltz and Kruber's new weapons are the most interesting of the bunch
>>495021804>Warhammer: Vermintide 2 - Forgotten Relics>New weapons, most are OP.isn't this. ummm, pay2win?
>>495021970not that much if you don't know how to dodge. It's just an easier weapon to learn like the torpedo hammer being a big delete button
>>495022049I recently found out that the mace and sword exists. I've been playing this game on and off for a few years and now I realize that I never did engines of war with Kruber so the weapon never appeared.>>495021532Wait for a sale and get everything except the careers you don't want.You can play for hundreds of hours and not finish learning the careers and weapons in the base game, so buying more of them when you aren't in 200 hours in doesn't make sense.Buying the maps does, map variety is always good.Winds of magic is a bit odd in that it only unlocks one map, but even then eh. Buy it on a sale.Also I hope you didn't pay for the base game, they hand it our for free every now and then.
>>495022441>I recently found out that the mace and sword existsit never managed to click with me yet I see a ton of GK with it
>>495021532For the DLCs honestly just wait for a sale. They happen every few months and everything goes 80% off.It's not worth getting most of the DLCs because if it's a map DLC all that matters is that the host has the DLC. You don't need to have the DLC to quickplay into a lobby with the DLC map.I don't recommend Winds of Magic because constantly playing on Cataclysm difficulty is only for the people who've been playing for a very long time, and most of the other stuff you get with Winds of Magic is kinda ass.Out of all the DLCs I would only recommend the Forgotten Relics one because it actually gives you new stuff you otherwise cannot access.
>>495022583>It's not worth getting most of the DLCs because if it's a map DLC all that matters is that the host has the DLC. You don't need to have the DLC to quickplay into a lobby with the DLC map.but dont you also get new weapons?
>>495022786the most interesting weapons are usually the ones from the Career DLCs anyway besides Wind's billhook
>SM2 players have a feedback forum where they can vote for requests>Saber says they even get fucking ADJUSTABLE HELMET LENSES>didnt even take a monthnot even us ratchads are this spoiled what the fuck?
>>495025741If this shit was votable ogryns would have space marine armor and power axes and bolters and dragon shoutsI unironically trust fartshart more than the average retard
>>495028896>I unironically trust fartshartyou deserve to get raped by smite psykers (male) till the end of times
>>495028896>I unironically trust fartshart more than the average retardThis is where you fucked up son
>>495030609the average retard screeched and whined when the power sword was nerfedgo ahead, tell me how the power sword killing every enemy in the game with just light spam without having to dodge or block or even just position or aim for heads was actually good for the game. The best part? m1 spam wasnt even its strongest attack patternpeople unironically want the entire game to be like this
Dueling sword zealot with dodge refresh? Yup, I'm FUCKING INVINCIBLE!
>>495003071Just the sounds of internal machinery and nothing else. The US navy has a handful of them, you can go check on youtube.Reality is often disappointing.
>>495013639kek
>>495033716Yup, that blessing will kinda break the game.
>>495025741swedish game studio PLEASE understand
Steel Legion cosmetics on next rotation with the crafting update, TRUST THE PLAN.
>>495038218>post about the nazi regiment with a brit posthuh?
>>494952947>congrats gamers, you made the game fun and gave yourself an enjoyable experienceftfy
>>494952947I don't care how the game is for you 300+ hour idiots, I'm not that pathetic. I just want to have fun progressing and blast bots and bugs to pieces.
>>495042873Really? How original. Youre just going to come on the internet and leave something like that out in the open for children to see? What if the fish got hurt on the hook? people like you are why bans exist
>>495042873In retrospect yeah the guy who keeps acting like video games should be designed around 500 hour spergs is baiting
Which coop game do you like the most?
>>495048286l4d2
Is this thread dead?Is everyone hanging out in the discord?
Is that you John Wayne?Is this me?
more like poopg
>>494952947I didn't touch HD2 because of the price. All the news I heard about things getting nerfed to hell and back to the point where the game was dying because and was no longer fun to play didn't help. I don't mind grinding for things but if none of the weapons available to play with are fun to use except "these very specific weapons only because muh meta" that kind of kills the fun. I will probably try it out if it goes on sale during the Halloween or Christmas sale.
Fatshark should have made the krieg mask look more like this, wtf were they thinking
>>495054262The chinamen who made it don't know anything about warhammer so there's zero quality control
>>495053959>I didn't play this game but the frenzied mob chanting death to alexus over 3 nerfs told me it was the worst game everThis is like talking yourself out of ever playing aurics because of the stories in these threads.
>>495054262>le heckin chud scowllmao
>>495053959This but with Darktide. When I saw the powersword nerfs I decided not to buy it
>>495054262fatshark was thinking "I hate chuds" so they purposefully made the krieg skins ugly to "own the chuds"this is obviously faggot lefist thinking, purposefully angering your target audience is a bad way to make sales, but they operate under the belief that people have to buy it anyways (due to communism brain rot)
>>495025741give it 4 years, we'll get there
>>495056587this is real, I came up with the idea (I own fatshark)
>>495054913good, he should stay out of my aurics
>>495056587and people did in fact buy it at a price upyour mistake is thinking people can tell it looks bad
Everyone really left for /hdg/
stop talking to yourself and bumping the thread for no reason then
>>495057507yes, the people retarded enough to still be playing Darktide are also incapable of seeing how bad the skins are, but that's not very many people is it?
>>495057986>4,000 playersI am playing with myself.
>>495057986The crafting update will bring darktide to a new high.
>>495058057I do that too a lot
>>495057986>steady numbers every day for a year straight>functional matchmaking>gameplay is funcould be worse
>>495058057Yeah, play with myself too
>>495054913I've gotten Auric Examplar with a friend. Storm Survivor I'd want to have a 4 man team where everyone was firing on all cylinders. >>495056153Power sword still cleaves through shit well enough with the right blessings.
>>495060562Could be Payday 3.
>played sm2 to death>played helldivers to deathGIVE DARKTIDE UPDATE NOOOOOOOOOW
>>495061045hop in the VC so we can play
>ritual poster is in tantan's serverfucking GRIIIIIIIIIM
>>495061783so you were the one who killed helldivers
>>495061783Joke on you, Darktide is already dead, and what it dead may never die.
>>495062316Sure bro. Post your FC so we can play. I will join your game
>>495060562>steady numbers for a yearthat is clearly a decline
I bet most of you are obeses.
>>494959121>more contentYes in terms of amount.Yes in terms of being more properly tailored to repeat play unlike SM2 ops.
>>495057986What do skins have to do with how good Darktide is? This sounds like a seething SM2fag
>>495065059i'm a little too lean actually
How am I meant to reliably farm resources? Damnation is like retard roulette where the mission fails half the time, I haven't got any good gear either
>>495066072I forgot whether Heresy or Damnation was the most efficient. I can't play without falling asleep unless I'm in Auric though.
>>495066072the highest you can do successfully. regular damnation should be pretty easy
>>495065059most petty retards are
>>495064670Its a dishonest pic to begin with, its a 1y graph which is right when a patch peaked it. Do an all-time graph and you can see the game had two distinct peaks and otherwise just always has a steady ~4k chugging along
>>495065853the point went over your head it seemsa shopclick tranny like yourself was arguing that people bought the krieg skins despite how shit they areI showed the player numbers to make it clear that his statement is true under the context that few people are playing the game at all, meaning most people do see the skins, and the game entirely, as shitdespite laying this all out for you though, you’re going to make another retarded cope in defense of shopclick, and I will probably laugh at that cope post as well
>>495068534thats so crazy what "most people" think but whats the relevance? why are you laying out popular opinion like anyone asked
>>495068534I do not at all understand what the player count should have to do with seeing players using Krieg skins.
>>495068128>showing an entire year of player decline is dishonesthow are shopclick players all so mentally ill?
>>495069012so why show exactly 1 year instead of the whlle graph?
>>495069112Because the whole graph would show that the game hasn't had a decline in playerbase since end of january 2023 which goes against his narrative
>>495069012Incredible sunk cost fallacy, and/or gambling addictions
OH I CAN'T HOLD IT! I CAN'T HOLD IT ANYMORE!I'M GONNA POST CHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARTS
>>495068836This guy >>495054262specifically asked what was fatshark thinkingcope and seethe ensued from shop click trannies>>495068848to say “people bought the skin” implies it made money or had some inherent value despite people’s groaning about the product being badthe same can be said about the game Concordpeople bought Concordclearly, not enough people bought Concord, and the game is the biggest failure in gaming history nowso back to shopclickonly the small amount of people mentally stunted enough to still play shopclick would look at the krieg skins and think that’s worth their moneythe overwhelming majority of gamers interested in the genre have moved on from shopclick to better games like HD2 and SM2, meaning most people agree the skins, and the game itself, are badto argue “people bought the krieg skins” is disingenuous in its suggestion that the skins are not dogshit
>>495069980>specifically asked what was fatshark thinkingI'm not getting the leap in logic here, how does that to relate to what "most people" want out of a video game and why do I care about that?
>>495070117>I don’t care that most people don’t like this shit, I happen to like shitok, cool
games that appeal to more people are better, enough said!
>>495066305Waow dude, you're so cool and hip!
>>495070245>>I don’t care that most people don’t like this shit, I happen to like shitI really, really don't care how many people like something I like, and I think you are mentally ill for caring
>>495070407good for you broI have no problem with you liking trashjust stop trying to tell me its not
>>495070598instead of being a weird little faggot about playercounts why don't you stop out a coward and post arguments for why you think Darktide is trash and I'm wrong to like playing it?
>>495070279Games made by studios that are not incredibly incompetent are better. Unfortunately it seems most "big name" co-op games lately have been made by studios like that.
>>495069415factually untrue statementagain, why are shopclick trannies so mentally ill?
>>495070305Genuinely though, doing that event was nightmarish because it wasn't in Auric.
>>495070598Wait so you unironically believe that a game is bad if it has less than an arbitrary amount of players on steamcharts? Damn
>>495070728because I don't think you're wrong for playing it, I think the game is trash and statistics agree with me>>495070896I think a game is bad if it has drastically less players than its direct competitors and is steadily losing players over time, yes
>>495070857Congrats, you zoomed into the graph when I couldn't be fucked to. So it's been the same since february 2023 then and the launch peak was still falling off in january. Great argument, pedantic retarded nigger. Also leave it to this neet to not know january has 31 days
>>495070857It must hurt them that darktide is such an easy target to shit on. If only fatshark wasn't, you know, fatshark, this could have been avoided.Oh well, maybe VT3 or DT2 will be better probably not
>>495071089why are you incapable of telling the truth?
>>495071068>is steadily losing players over time,It's always been around 3k save for the two peaks (launch and talent rework). It's even comparatively high right now compared to previous dips to 2500 players that happen intermittently. I know you don't care and will just make up some weird cope that contradicts reality, but these are the numbers and nothing you say will change them>>495071441I'll save you the effort of cherrypicking and just post all the numbers
>>495071068do you really think tide games and hd2 are competing? but isn't hd2 also steadily losing players? so it really just comes down to more players=better
>>495071607I don't need to copethe numbers prove I'm right
>>495071962You didn't post numbers, I did, and they prove you wrong. There is no "steady decline". You are delusional
>>495071962Look just because the numbers get lower and lower doesn't mean the playerbase is declining
>>495072012they aren't steadily going up I can tell you that much>>495072036kek
>>495072036See >>495071607The numbers don't get "lower and lower", you made it up.
>>495072270>they aren't steadily going up I can tell you that muchHere comes the backpedaling>actually I didnt mean the numbers are dropping, I meant they dont go uplol ok dude. little bitch trying to take back what you said. pathetic
What's wrong with a game having 4k players? It's pretty normal for a game to have 3k players. I mean really, how many games can you name that have 2k players? Yeah that's what I though.
>>495072350I clearly didn't, as you can see in October of 23, they had an average peak of 33know they have 6kthat's a loss in playerscope and seethe
>>495072512they are dropping, I was being snarky because I can't believe I am witnessing these delusional takes about how smaller numbers than before is somehow not a loss in players
>>495071607>>495071962It's crazy how you can show these people a literal conclusive graph of average player numbers that show it's been around the same for one and a half years and they'll still insist Darktide is dying. Why are they so obsessed? >>495072530I think it could stand to be higher to give them more incentive to put more money into development and stop doing the gay console port shit. I'm just amazed that people think it's dying despite the numbers showing it has a steady ~3k playerbase that remains even without updates. The game is literally well and alive and it has an update coming in so it's not like it's abandoned either.
what games do you guy play that don't go down in player numbers over time
>>4950725304k players for a niche pve game with infrequent updates is fantastic. It speaks to how good the game is.
>>495072782God I wish I had that screencap of those SWTOR forum posts that were like "everything is fine nothing is wrong" (which I'm very certain were shitposts) so I could make a better referential joke.
>>495072834probably because the graphs don't show the numbers have been the same, the numbers show two big peaks with two massive drop offscope and seethe
>>495072626>You can see in this month a huge update came out it peaked...are you retarded dude? This happens to literally every game. Launch and big updates peak it, and then it stabilizes at some point after. Like, using your logic SM2 is trash because it dropped half the playerbase already.
>>495072943Apparently darktide, it alone has buckbroken normal playerbase trends
>>495072943HD2 is currently going up
>>495072943Fortnite, Overwatch, League of Legends, CoD, muh favorites.
>>495072997So let me get this straight: Your argument is that it hasn't had a stable 3k, it also peaked at 100k on launch and at 33k on a big update? What are you trying to argue again?
>>495073160overall no it's still going down
>>495073080SM2 is doing fine currently because while it is true that over half of its playerbase has fallen off, its direct competitors (HD2, Darktide, LFD2) have lower counts, putting itself in a healthy spot on top of the genre
For monetization in Darktide, they need to do big packs that can go on discount during seasonal sales. As a PC player I'm still salty that xboners got a shit load of free credits for the cosmetic shop and PC players were essentially told >suck it.We got some cosmetics for each operative but I would have much rather have gotten the 14k aquillas. In the foreseeable future, I don't plan on patronizing their store at all. If a new operative is released I'll consider them but I probably won't buy that until it's on sale.
>>495073232>I'm just going to pretend I no longer understand the argument now that I've been proven wrong over and overtypical tranny behavior
>>495073665Yeah no the darktide team's never gonna do anything generous with its monetization scheme
>>495065059Wrong side of the equation. I'm a DYEL lanklet
>>495072943Most live service games tend to stabilize at a certain playercount for years as long as they get actively updated. They get some peaks but it bottoms out at a stable number. You can check VT2 which worked that way too over the past 6 years. Had 2500 players avg in august 2018, had 2500 players avg in june 2024. Sometimes it drops below 2k, sometimes it goes to like 4k. Interestingly other than the steam giveaway update that peaked it to 26k, it never peaked as hard as darktide update peaks darktide. The DT talent rework peaked Darktide by like +600%, the big VT2 updates made it to like +60-80%. It kinda shows that there's retained interest in the game and people come back to check it out on big patches https://steamcharts.com/app/552500here's the VT2 charts if you're curious
>>495073801lol so you didn't even realize it but you argued yourself into a corner. Your argument changed from>the numbers decline steadilyto >Well it had peaks and it declined from the peakslittle bitch backpedaling
>>495073665Darktide's cosmetics would've been far more profitable for FS if:>A. the characters weren't lumpy, malformed products of 17 generations of incest between siblings>B. the cosmetics didn't also look like shit 80% of the timeBut the characters are ugly, and the skins suck while still costing like $20 or whatever. Very retarded.
>>495074064Biggest issue with the cosmetics is that silhouettes are all wrongI'll keep posting this because it shows the issue so clearly. >Darktide: weak little bobblehead s0i humans, no v taper, manage to look simultaneously lanky, skinnyfat and like midgets with big heads>SM2, a game with good armor design: looks like the figurines translated into a realistic artstyle as closely as possibleThat's it, that's literally the issue (along some clipping, deformation and generally bad design choices). Anyone who says it has anything to do with Darktides steamcharts (????) is a retard or trollingAnd yes I know these are secret traitors you dumb faggot who brought it up last time, I just can't be fucked to get a screenshot of non traitor cadians, they wear the same shit anyway
>>495074064>B. the cosmetics didn't also look like shit 80% of the timeIf the cancerous paid-only premium currency and rotating fomo bullshit didn't filter my interest in that game's cosmetics when I played it, then them overwhelmingly looking bad and/or boring would've done it.
>>495074658in a way the rotating fomo store covers up the latter issue. People (I use the term loosely) no longer actually think about wether it's actually something they actually like, they just know they like cadians/krieg/whatever and they instead think>it'll be gone if I don'tand that's most of their thought process
>>495074006I didn't back pedal at allI am correct in both statementsfrom launch, the numbers have declinedin the claim that "numbers show a steady player count" this is untrue, because there are two peaks and from those peaks we see steady declinescope and seethe shopclick tranny
>>495074436Well there's that and the fact that a lot of the designs are just ugly looking. I've seen like two Zealot cosmetics that sort of looked alright on a good day when I've been drinking.>>495074658Yeah the rotating fomo shit was gay as fuck.
>>495065059>but enough about you
>>495074880>from launch, the numbers have declinedThis is true for literally every game except for gay shit like LoL >in the claim that "numbers show a steady player count" this is untrue, because there are two peaks and from those peaks we see steady declinesI want you to really strain your hypothetical capacitors in your brain now: What would it be if it peaked but never went back down? Would it still be a peak?
This looks JUST like the commissars in the art!!!
>>495075093now you're just taking what I said out of the context of the entire argumentgo ahead and cope about how you won after being disproven over and over cause I'm done wasting time playing chess with a pigeon
post psyker build trees I'm bad
>>495074064>Darktide's cosmetics would've been far more profitable for FS if:>it had a functional game supporting them at launch instead of going through the Fatshark cycle for 2 years>it was possible to earn aquilas in game like they stated before the truth changed, similar to HD2 and SC>the cosmetics weren't on a FOMO rotationThat's it. Pigs already pay for them even if you and I think they're shit. There are plenty of games that don't feature sexy superheroes that get away with selling cosmetics. Hell I'd argue VT was one of them. You just have to make a good game where cosmetics are an option and not the feature.
>>495065059Most people here strike me as scrawny boys or beanpole lanklet boys. Not me though. I've big old floppy saggers that knock over things on my desk when I stand up and lean over to grab something.
>>495075721post titsNOW
>>495075521I am not, you're just retarded and don't understand the relation. Here, two hypotheticals: >Darktide as it is now, hovering around 3k players consistently with 100k peak at launch and 30k peak at talent tree update Your argument: "This is bad because the player numbers decline since the peaks">Darktide WITHOUT those peaks, hypothetically, where it was always around 3k players and never peakedYour argument: "This would be better because the numbers never declined"This is what you said and it should be clear to anyone who isn't a fucking retard like you why this is a beyond retarded thing to cope with. You are trying to argue that because of the technicality that the game had player peaks, the stabilization, non-peak amounts are "declining" when they've been the same since 2 months after launch.
>>495075721...Tanner Lindberg? is that...you???
>>495075721that's literally me
>>495075810>when they've been the same since 2 months after launchman, I don't even have to bust out the charts to disprove this one, its right here >>495071441the player count was never steadily 3kyou could claim it was over 3k for the majority of its lifespan, which would be true, but you aren't claiming that because you know it wouldn't disprove the argument that its players are declining, which they haveits low points are around 3k, but both peak show a clear decline from 10-100x 3k players and steadily falls down to 3k after those peakscope and seethe
>>495075621I'm not disagreeing with the main point here (more people = more sales) but I just want to say it's not a DIRECT increase. Like, those select few whale-out paypigs who buy literally every cosmetic set or even just every other cycle exist and are their main source of income. I think that those people would play the game and buy these cosmetics regardless of the 3 points you made. My point is basically just that aslong as you have the whales, you already have 80% of your income secured. Darktide has the whales for sure. Wether they want the remaining 20% from stray customer purchases and maybe the small amount of whales they missed is the real question. It might not actually be worth the effort, as retarded as it sounds. I know I'm projecting actual agency onto a bunch of mostly mindless swedes but I think their money guys are pretty good at what they're doing, the company is steadily growing
why can't i find anybody for games in SM2 like yesterday? i don;t want to turn on crossplay
>>495076692Dead game, everyone moving on to Forever Winter.
>>495076373The chart you linked is player PEAKS. You're comparing them to player averages. You're either not very bright or doing it intentionally. The actual 1:1 comparison between each month is here: >>495071607Where you can see that the games average players is around 3.5k average or something if you ignore the distinct peaks of launch and the itemization update and their comedown. Feel free to add it up, I did it and rounded. >cope and seetheI love how you keep bringing this one as you further prove you're retarded and/or dishonest
>>495076373>the player count was never steadily 3k>you could claim it was over 3k for the majority of its lifespan
>>495077014those average player counts in that chart still show exactly what I am saying>I love how you keep bringing this one as you further prove you're retarded and/or dishonestI see you are going with the typical leftist tactic of "accuse your opponent of doing exactly what you are doing"cope and seethe tranny
>>495077517learn the difference between 'greater than' and 'equal to'it'll help you not be retarded in the future
>>495077521>those average player counts in that chart still show exactly what I am sayingNo, they don't. You can see the game, after the peaks of launch and the big update, always had around 3k players. Cope and seethe, dumb faggot. There is no "steady decline", there is only "pointed decline directly after peaks" which is fucking normal and obvious you dumb shit otherwise they wouldn't be peaks. God you're such a retarded subhuman for real.
>>495074064I don't mind characters being "ugly". It kinda fits with them all being "rejects". The idea being all these characters either rolled a nat 1 on charisma or luck and ended up in the shitbox. It's okay for them not to be attractive. I'm not poor but I don't have the kinda cash to throw around at overpriced cosmetics. If they were to do a bundle where you could buy sets for all the operatives at a discount, I MIGHT consider that but paying $14 just to deck out one operative is a little silly to me. What's more, they aren't even trying to do predatory shit where they offer a discount on your first Aquilas purchase to get your foot in the door. If it were up to me, I'd do seasonal sales of Aquilas. The bundle for $29.99? Drop that down to $9.99. For the 13.49 bundle? Drop that down to $3.99. Limit one discounted purchase per account to keep people from double dipping on the discounts. I'd buy at that kinda price. >>495075721I'm pretty skinny but I've been eating more lately. I'm starting to get a gut so I've started exercising to counteract it. I don't want to end up looking like some Nurgle worshiper.
Why don't more people know that coop games are better than competitive ones?
>>495077705>always had around 3k playersDec 22: 31kJan 23: 9kFeb 23: 4.3kMar 23: 4.9kApril 23: 4.3kMay 23: 3.9kJun 23: 3.4kJul 23: 2.7kAug 23: 2.3knot true, this is a decline, you are retarded
>>495077726> It's okay for them not to be attractive. Eh I don't think anyone wants them to actually be attractive. But how about rugged-ugly stuff? Why doesn't Darktide have this (outside of Ogryn faces)? When you look at Wh40k art characters are either depicted as>especially handsome >totally average but on the handsome side >totally fucking ugly but rugged and masculine Darktide has really only just >totally average but on the handsome side and >weird seattle office drone Like I'm fine with there not being especially handsome faces given the setting but why not represent a range of warhammer faces? Where is stuff like pic related? Totally fucked up looking rugged guys? That's the epitome of wh40k to me
explain
>>495078673because you're on difficulty 1
>>495078180Wow, weird how you stopped at Aug 2023. Is that todays date? Do you know what the "steady" part of "steady decline" implies? If what you were saying is true and the game has been on a steady decline, then logically the numbers now would have to be lower than Aug 23 today, right?Well, anon? Are they?
>>495078780close, auric damnation
>>495078961basically the same for a pro like you B)

>>495079009was that you? stop putting medkits down preemptively in doorways when everyone has full hp
>>495079234So did you or did you not say there was a steady decline? If there was a steady decline, then how come the game in the past 12 months had more players than in august 2023 every month? And still does right now?
>>495079387there is a steady decline from both peaks, yeskeep being retarded
>>495079457>there is a steady decline from both peaks, yesSo overall there has been no steady decline then?
>>495075792I don't post them without getting paid anymore. >>495076271Weightlet Lindberg? Tiny baby boy Lindberg? Never. >>495076274Sister.>>495077726It's not the end of the world as long as you do something with those calories. Chubby buff is one of the hottest looks.
>>495079634>overallyes, steady decline
>>495080027That looks to me like a steady ~3k with two distinct peaks.
>>495080409>muh 3kwe've been over thisit's not realyou made it up in your headthere was never a solid 3k playerbase
>>495080503>there was never a solid 3k playerbase
>>495080783if you zoom in on those numbers you would see, like here >>495078180that is not a steady 3k player count, but a declining onethe graph zoomed out like that makes it hard to see, which is why I typed out the numbers for you earlierit seems you are too retarded to understand the meaning of those numbers though, sad

Is decline posting a psyop to keep us from page 11-ing?
>>495081073>that is not a steady 3k player count, but a declining oneYou stopped at august 2023. In august 2024 the game had an average of 3950 players. Can you tell me how going from 2.3k to 3.95k is a decline? I'm really interested in hearing this. It probably sounds a lot like when trannies try to explain why they're actually women despite having a Y chromosome.
>>495079897hum sweetie, Tanner is actually a hamplanet
>>494952601SM2 feels so unreplayable compared to darktide, what went wrong. Ruthless feels way too easy if you aren't a shitter.
>>495081257in your cherry picked timeline that would not be a decline, but just like you have been taking what I have said out of context this entire time in order to try to distort reality, taking a graph out of context won't change the fact that shopclick has a declining playerbasefunny of you to yet again accuse me of doing exactly what you are doing when trannies are typically the ones who partake in distorting reality and living in delusion
>>495079748rock
>>495060562>could be worseI could be down there with you!
>>495081789>cherry picked timelineYOU stopped at august 2023, not me. I just went with your stats and august is the latest month thats on there with full data. I rest my case, nigger. You've been btfo'd from every angle despite arguing like a dishonest little leftie faggot trying to explain why 32% isn't actually 32%.
>>495082028I stopped because I thought you would get the point, I seem to have been wrong>You've been btfo'd from every angle despite arguing like a dishonest little leftie faggot trying to explain why 32% isn't actually 32%.a good summary for what you have been doing

>>495082212>I stopped because I thought you would get the point, You stopped because the number went up again after that. You are so transparent
>>495082497no, there just isn't really any point in debating with someone who is obfuscating the truth, denying reality, and arguing in bad faithit's why trannies and leftists like yourself always do it, you can't beat a pigeon in chess, it's just going to kick the pieces over and shit on the board

>>495083413you seem to not understand what the word "steady" implies
>>495081486It takes forever to actually play the game due to slow matchmaking and unforgivably bad load times, their combat system is gimmicky, based around parrying so it's just not that fun
>>495083475You seem to not understand the game has more players now than it did a year ago lol
>player count autismCan you fags just DM each other and ERP in private so we don't have to listen to this retarded shit?
>>495083916the takeaway is that darktrannies think just because numbers go up it's not a decline
>>495083502don't get me wrong its awesome during the campaign and up to level 25 the first time. Don't really feel like it has the replayability after that though, Darktide feels the opposite to me. Most fun after you unlock shit and can starting going for god roll gear.
>>495084057Is the game dead? If not, I can't be bothered to give a shit.
>>495083896>the game has more players now than it did a year agonot trueI am asking yet again, why are shopclick trannies incapable of telling the truth?
Obsessing over steam charts like this is retard behavior, as long as you can find a match within a reasonable time for your timezone it's fine.Never played 40K: Darktide btw not touching W*rh*mmer with a ten foot pole.

>>495086759no, you’re the one arguing in bad faith because we both know that shopclick will not peak over 4k today which means that your claim that it has more players NOW is not true due to the fact that a year ago today the game had more playerscope and seethe tranny

>>495079748eheh, boing
>>495081812It's a brick
>>495089637what is difference?
>>495090043brick>masculine, strong sharp edges, structurally sound, reasonably found in a darktide levelrock:>round, feminine, for fun, totally silly, best friend rock, randumb, why would there even be a rock anywhere in a hive city thats built with cement and bricksAn actual ogryn would choose brick, a wholesome chungus redditor would pick rock
I STILL NEED YOUR STRONG RIGHT ARM, KRUBAHH
>>495079748if Darktide ever gets Versus i wonder how ogryn stones will be perceived for it
>>495090434so finding rock is finding unicorn?
>>495091098The same way they handled it with VT2. People who couldn't picture an apple in their minds eye kept saying>but da ubersreik 5 can oneshot da specials it wont be fair! well guess what, in versus they can just do custom balance
>>495090434I figured it was stray rubble, which may include bricks but could also contain assorted stones in a variety of shapes from various kinds of rockrete rubble. I would not be opposed to a random pull of rock varieties based on the stage you were in. Some rocks would shatter on impact and create a shrapnel-like effect. Others would be more sturdy and have a penetrative effect, allowing you to bowl over multiple smaller foes. Other odd varieties may burst into crystalline dust upon impact that temporarily blinds and disorients those affected (also the dust would be highly flammable/combustive.)You'd at least have to glance at the rock before you toss it to figure out the best way to utilize it. The Meta fags would hate it, but that kind of random flavor is the shit I love.
I'm gonna post another chart if no one else does soonI can't be happy unless charts are being discussed
>>495092716Nobody said they couldn't balance both. They said Fatshark would be too lazy to have 2 separate balance considerations. What they miscalculated was VT2 being Fatshark's favorite child they'd do anything for while Darktide rots.

What's the shopclick sisters' collective opinion on the Forever Winter footage? Looks pretty underwhelming to me honestly.
>>495100124About what I expected. Janky and niche, but it's a cool concept so I'll probably end up buying it and hoping for the best.

>>495097906>all the enemy players are gunners at the rear
>>495089637>>495093119Yeah It's rubble and building supply, if you hold the rock out and inspect it, you can see bits of steel rebar sticking out through the holes in it, It's more like a cement slab that the ogryn might've grabbed than it is anything close to a rock.
>>495101569>numbers are gooduh-oh shopclick sisters, it's not looking good for us>numbers are badanother game crushed by the mighty Helldivers!it's that easy
>>495100124I don't really get it. You walk around slowly and collect stuff, but the stealth looks really barebones, and if you do engage it becomes extreme jank
>>495100696It's good, but its primary role isn't damage. Its damage is fine, but it really excels at CC.
>>495101659Exactly. It's not like the munitorum is issuing rocks to Ogryns before deployment. They just pick them up off the ground. In 40k we've moved beyond Concrete/cement to rockrete which is supposed to be stronger than standard concrete. As I understand its base on a mixture of the local rocks and sand they pull from the respective planet and mixed with something else to create the substance. Depending on the kind of structure and the environment it's built in, you could conceivably have various kinds of rockrete on the same planet. Hence my idea for random rock pulls.

>>495104778Yeah, there's a big group of random rocks you pull from. a lot of them are more oval shaped, some more round and the rebar is very hard to see (its covered by the hand and wont be shown unless you fully inspect it at a 180 angle.)I had to throw like four of them to get that specific one

>>495113445Nah, there are times where I'm shooting torso when I have the breathing room to adjust for head.Although I have given up going for headshots on moving enemies since that STILL AFTER TWO FUCKING YEARS FATSHARK often gives the headshot sound hit confirmation with no fucking hitmarker and no damage done. That shit's one of the reasons I barely play my Vet.

Anyone figure out how to get the new freezer in Abiotic Factor?
>>495121003Stack as much peril resistance as you can, the surge staff gets hot fast.
>>495121003I run the Brainburst chance with the surge for random head pops. Pair that with the passive of warp siphon + warp rider + a good surge staff and you're looking at an extra 50% damage easy. I tried to remember off-hand what melee I used but that's not too important since you'll be using the Surge staff most of the time. It's one of the force swords.I use kinetic deflection and soul stealer for added survivability. Between the warp instakills you get with the extra damage, the toughness you regenerate per kill, and your kinetic deflection + deflector you should be invincible for the most part. One with the warp usually ensures you have extra toughness as well because you'll always be cooking with peril. I could eke out more damage with a different ability but I like being able to do support actions as well as cooking dudes just by looking at them.You can blind fire with the Surge so if there's gas or if it's really dark, you don't have to worry, you'll always hit something and you kill shit fast as fuck. 2 to 3 charged attacks can take out several elites depending on what your team is running for passives, perks you have on your gear, and other background shit. You may not always get the kill, but you'll turn the elites into 1 shots with your constant zapping. >https://darktide.gameslantern.com/build-editor?id=9d0b95ef-34f9-425d-83cc-0631997d20faYour skill tree should look something like this. It also works for other staves if you want to focus on warp damage.
>>495122454Can do>>495122605Thanks for the huge write up sibling. I’ll give it a try
>>495122605Perfectly fine build, except for the weird choice to take a +5% speed node intead of mettle, which gives you 15% speed. Other than that, the obscurus moveset is atrocious and I hate it.
Just booted up PD3 for the first time in months, what the fuck happened to all the challenges? Did they remove all of them but the infamy ones? There used to be a ton of weapon grinding challenges
>>495123576You don't have to follow it to a "T". You could swap it out for -5% peril generation (10% total if you're following the top part of the tree). The more important ones I highlighted. I didn't even realize but Solidarity (+30% quell speed) is part of the warp siphon line which is COOL AS HELL for cooling off which you'll need if you're spamming surge staff attacks. Assuming you take both peril generations that's 10% less peril + 30% quell speed. Ice cold killer for sure.>obscurus moveset is atrocious and I hate it.I don't know if that's the one I use. I know whichever one I do use is good for clearing pox walkers and weaker troops. Whatever Melee you use, it also benefits from warp rider so if you need time to "cool off" you'll be doing upwards of 15% extra damage with whatever melee you're using. Either of the passives wouldn't be bad either for extra damage, but I like having my skill available more often. >>495123546Try not to pop your top.
>>495122605Desu assuming you really want to shit out dps, I've been finding bubble to be a bit more of a waste over shriek, which I've found to be a much more valuable panic button over bubble in aurics because of the stagger and the peril resistance + instant cooldown really helps keep you shitting out surges, although in this case it really is up purely to preference because of >surging gunners in the distanceI also prefer the charge rate node over the chance of instant BB on attack node, both because the cooldown is very long for what it does compounded with the fact that it very rarely ever hits anything meaningful. Instances where you're brain bursting to begin with is very rare, but having that charge time does help somewhat if you're ever forced to use it for long distance specials/elites. I feel like It's very hard to justify giving up that rare utility for something thats almost always going to be triggered on a trash mob
>>495122605interesting build I'll try that thanks
>>495124617That's part of the fun with that skill. Sometimes it pops who you want, other times not. If you're using the Surge Staff you gotta be okay with not every attack hitting what you intend to hit anyway. > Charge rate over random head popMy only issue with the charge rate bonus is you need to activate your ability to do it so it's only going to proc when you do that. It may be something you do in the background while doing counter-sniping or some such but all the enemies you'd be counter-sniping (snipers and gunners) that you can kill with it die in one hit from a BB. Normally there's only one or two of those outside of special level conditions so I don't see much sense for that one. Part of the way to play this build is to hold onto your warp charges with your keystone if you can. You don't want to be using your ability if you can help it. Granted, you get charges back pretty quickly in higher-difficulty games but that doesn't mean I want to burn my warp charges willy nilly in either case.>Shriek vs bubbleShriek is a good panic button in terms of getting dudes off you and it vents all your peril which is very nice. I like the utility of putting down a toughness-regenerating shield though. I feel like the DPS I have normally is more than enough. You should use whatever you feel benefits you most of course. >>495124708Take care sibling.

>>495137932I'm going as Sweden for Halloween. I'll have my costume ready after winter break.
>>495125329I wanted to gloat about how cool I was so I really focused on zapping everything that moved but damage was pretty evenly spread with this team I played with. I was surprised I did as much boss damage as I did. Apparently, I was crit-hitting all the time. I can thank Warp Nexus on my Staff for that. I think I may need to put one point into perfect timing which would be an extra 15% warp damage on top of the 45% or so from other sources. If I switch my passive from Kinetic presence to prescience that's an additional 5% crit chance.I'll try playing around with it some more.
>get around 10-20 stalker kills a game if lucky>dude just kill 3600 (THREE THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED) stalkers as Commando to reach level 6yeah fuck you Tripwire im cheesing this shit on custom mapsany other anons been playing Killing Floor again since KF3 started swirling around the newscycle?
Not that anyone /here/ other than myself cares about Remnant 2 but did you know that by using the build shown in pic related you have zero downtime on Way of Kaeula, Sandstorm, Nano Swarm and most importantly, you have 100% uptime on Havoc Form.If you drop both Sandstorm, Nano Swarm and Way of Kaeula followed by activating Havoc Form and holding LMB you can melt every single boss in the game from 100-0 in seconds, if anybody needs a build to speedrun content then this is the way, it is completely autopilot, Havoc Form means that nothing outside of bosses can threaten you but even without that, Sandstorm alone makes you near-immortal and I would not be surprised if they patch this build out somehow when the new DLC drops on Tuesday, if anyone needs to get an Apocalypse run done for Starkiller and World's Edge, this build cuts out the fighting and makes the game a walking sim.
>>495138437they have a lot of twinks
>>495140410i like the sandstorm mace, you can walk through most levels, if throw stormcaller or whatever its called, and equip your infinite stamina and if anything gets close you them with the infinite shock
>>495135739>finally add lobby chat>it's closed by default>have to push the button to open it and be able to write and READ messages>most people either don't bother or don't even know it works>nobody sees your messagesIt's like Nu Starbreeze is 90% non human. No actual living person would design a basic lobby chat feature like that.
I tried the huntsman with the headshot talent. Once you finally get a boss to stop moving for a second so you can stick arrows into his face, he just mcfucking dies.The shield rat removal service is also excellent, would suggest to anyone.Too bad my aim is shit.
>>495143831someone suggested the exec sword with it. You're right on this being torture for us aimlets
>>495143956I use the spear because the movement speed from holding leftclick supposedly stacks with the movespeed talent and then 5% from the item.For the keks.Oh also I forgot to mention, the bow doubles as the final solution to the plague monk question, which I consider the most common game ender.
>>495144192which trait for the bow
7 days...
>>495144259Headshot ammunition. I don't know how I'm supposed to play with anything else.
>>495144424I like hunter
Slaanesh update when?
>>495144697I don't really understand that one. If you're shooting a boss or a patrol, you get a quarter more damage after you crit? But most non-boss enemies die in an arrow or two anyway.And it doesn't matter if the crit comes from melee or ranged?That just sounds like it will proc too rarely. And you have to be careful with your ammo, you can't just ult and farm arrows on the next horde to show up. And you have to build crit chance on your gear instead of stacking power so you can oneshot specials more easily.
>>495145048I guess it's because I feel like headshot ammo is redundant, I know it isn't that optimized
>>495145475I guess no-ammo classes are very common now, so since you get all of the map pickups to yourself it's not that big of a deal, but once I start spamming at monks or a stabber shows up and I waste 5 arrows before I finally hit him, the arrows could easily run out. And there are events like that dwarf map where you're throwing barrels where the ammo pickups are out of the way and you need like 80 shots to deal with all the waves.I would not dare rely on any other trait in case quickplay sends me into one of those.
>>495145809oh I know it's bad I just like the idea of bigger numbers
>>495140278ill play with you.do you have any contact info, like discord, steam friend code or something?
>>495146101Wait, I might be retarded. The huntsman already has an ammo on headshot as a passive. So I didn't even notice, I get 2 instead of one. As opposed to one instead of zero like I though. Or do they not even stack and taking the headshot ammo trait does literally nothing?But none of the other traits are particularly good. I guess I'd use the one one that gives you power for consecutive shots, but even that's basically just for bosses and chaos warriors.I can see why you'd take hunter when it's not like anything else is good.Or maybe I'll just keep the trait as is so I can spam with less care.
>>495146384you can get two per headshots
>>495146803Yeah, I'll keep it as is then. The other traits are too situational.
>>495146880speaking of trait, shield and flail with opportunist is god tier holy shit
>>495140278I cheatengined the kill requirements in KF1 and don't feel an ounce of shame for it.
>Swiftbow>Barrage>Ammo refund on ult>GlaiveYup, it's elf time. Try to keep up, lumberfoots.
>>495147285is it as long and soul crushing as 2 ?
>>495142138I haven't actually unlocked that item yet, I haven't played much of Forgotten Kingdom's tileset, I was too busy getting everything from Losomn and being a Ne'rud hater, i'll do a run to get it later tonight and try it out, thanks for the suggestion anon.
Is diving actually back or is the game still now worth sticking on my hard drive?
>>495147806why did you not like it in the first place?
>>495147375yeah mirage is really nice, it stun smaller enemies, you can swap the kinetic ring for bisected, its slow going, but nerud and losom have so many tight areas that you can easily hit a bunch of people for shocker, its probably not good on bosses but shit that summons a bunch of adds like the corpse feeder or whatever on nerud would be great, theres probably a build in here but this is a really nice and compact package to deal with garbageid swap for profane heart too, the constant overload from flail swings is really good damage
>>495147876Playercount dwindled so much you barely had anything going on on the non-order planets, stratagem loadouts felt stale while the weapons you dropped with felt lame, and the new warbonds have looked like shit.
>>495147285Everyone did.>>495147332Buddy if you think KF2 was long and soul crushing you literally have no idea what those words mean.

>>495122454Soon you can get 86% peril resist from the talent tree so Im going back to surge. Trauma is still the king of staves but surge is fun, voidstrike takes too much time to use I dont like it. Surge is perfectly viable on halfcharges but voidstrike not so much and even on my near god roll one its so slow
>>495153001never managed to love the trauma even with blazing spirit
>>495150779skissue
I'm managing a Dedicate Valheim server.What kind of modded experience would you guys like to play?
>>495153053It melts piles of horde mobs jumping down from things, it turns elite waves into drunk children and with the brittle talent everyones doing more damage. It has none of the massed horde weaknesses the other staves have because you can just aim at your feet and kill everything if it comes to it and you wont take damage, it has minimal peril so you rarely if ever have to use shriek or vent peril during combat. Blazing spirit is an amazing damage build but the brittle one is basically smite spammers if they could kill things. That said I use surge staff because its better at targeted elite killing, but trauma is incredibly hard to lose a round with
Trauma is fun, I can go the majority if the map without my melee due to all the stagger trauma has. Also TOOONKERS are a non-issue because you don't even have to look at what you're hitting. Just send your warp nukes on the other side of the doorway blocked by your ogryn. If you're lucky there might be a burster in the crowd that blows up the TOONK.

>>495152692>mediocre damage on headshots>Headhunter VIIAre you running it on Zealot or Vet? As Vet, you one-shot headshot gunners and shotgunners, trappers, bombers, and snipers. 3 out of 4 shooter variants die in a body shot, while the other dies in a headshot or two body shots (And I'm 99% sure with a better rolled gun, I would 1-shot body all basic shooter variants since dreg shooters live with like 14 hp). And if you run the tagging keystone, you three-shot headshot Reapers.It does take 5-6 body shots for Maulers though, and although Ragers only take a couple headshots, they can be hard to headshot, and their body shot threshhold is similar to Maulers. It's not a gun you really take for killing melee elites.Pic related is my weapon and talents for it if you wanna mess around with it on Vet. You can take Kill Zone out for something else if you want. It's mostly there to enable 2-shot bodyshots to shotgunners and an additional 1-shot bodyshot to one of the shooter variants. Although I think it makes Dreg Ragers a 2-shot headshot instead of 3 as well.

>>495165242>rending strike
>>495167029See >>495167109 what's wrong with it? Headhunter autos arent even remotely bad, they remove basically every gunner and special on the map before you can even look at em

>>495167285I didnt even notice he does that desu. Just drop killzone for it, killzone is shit anyway
>>495166854>Mk IXWasn't that thing shit? Did it get buffed? I run a Mk III with Headhunter and DA on my Zealot sometimes, and it's okay.>>495167029Here's your (you). This is how it performs with shit aim and not having played the game in over 6 months.>>495167208Yeah, I think I needed it for a breakpoint. I'd go fuck with it to make sure, but I don't wanna re-open the game. I'll do it later.>>495167285Swap out Kill Zone for it. I flip flop between the two since. The thing's only sometimes on anyway and doesn't fuck up significant breakpoints. The tag stones give consistent damage and toughness regen, and you still get a full refi;l on shout anyway.
>but first let me show you my scoreboard.
>>495167029I don't see anything bad with it, vet is so fucking absurdly overpowered that you can run just about anything on it and still come out on top as long as you didnt unbind your spacebar and F key for whatever reason. It's an unremarkable but good tree, and I don't really see an issue with it unless you're one of those weirdos that cant play without relying on plasma and revolver winning the game for you
>>495167885>Anon without scoreboard trashes scoreboard userWhere's your scoreboard anon?
>>495167754>>495167754>I flip flop between the two since both feel situationally useful*My bad. I accidentally half a sentence
>>495167754>and you still get a full refi;l on shout anyway.overtoughness (gold bar) has certain properties that even full toughness can't achieve, like 0 spillover from ANY attack. Normally stuff like a sniper shot, poxburster burst or overheads from maulers/crushers will damage you through toughness even at 100%, amount depending on how much numerical toughness you have (this is why you shouldn't neglect max toughness as a defensive stat btw) but with gold toughness it's always 0
>>495168105>Normally stuff like a sniper shot, poxburster burst or overheads from maulers/crushers will damage you through toughness even at 100%And that's great, but you almost never get hit by any of those unless some trigger happy retard is shooting a burster in your face. You have to really fuck up to eat a Mauler/Crusher overhead, especially when you have an AOE knockdown and AOE stagger/knockdown grenades. That's why I was saying they're both situationally useful. Kill Zone is turned off for like 70% of the game, but you aren't always actually benefiting from overheal toughness either.You're right though. The overheal IS better since Kill Zone is just off too often.
>>495168406I mean I'll gladly take an extra layer of defense over 15% base damage with no enemies nearby (so basically never and not breakpoint relevant either)
>>495152084comfy 19 minute bots 10 run. gg, good team.game easy now literal joke haha
>>495169398kek yeah, fair. >not breakpoint relevant eitherIt is and it isn't. It doesn't affect significant ones, but it does make shotgunners 2-shot body shots for me and the tougher scab shooter a 1-body, but yeah I think that's it. Might make a rager variant 2-headshots instead of 3 without tagging (lmao), but I've closed the game now and can't be assed to check. Ultimately, it isn't important, you're absolutely right. Funnily enough, I was actually running the overshield before going to fuck around with it in the Meat Grinder a while ago, but I was thinking of the last game I'd played (also the only game I'd run the gun on Vet in months, and one of the only Vet games I've played since returning), and I hadn't had a single point where I felt like the overheal was helping, but the quicker body shots would've, so I swapped it. I'll probably swap it back though now you point it out.
>>495167029Yeah?Just play better shitter.
>>495167029yeah he doesn't seem too bad,bet he can carry your fat ass
>>495167029Scrubs think off meta choices are a lack of skill when more often than not they're a consequence of skill
How are the fart weapons?
>Yes, we said quickly. One of the most significant additions to this mission is the timer as an overarching objective. We wanted to introduce this mechanic to create a stronger sense of tension and urgency throughout the mission.HahahahahahahahahahahaFucking dead on arrival

i have a long list of things i dont like other players doingif you do any of them, i will instantly kick youif i can't, i will disband the lobby in your facepossibly at the very end as we are done and leavingsorry but im the host and i make the rules
Unlike our previous missions, which often feature wider environments, “Rolling Steel” has a highly linear layout
>>495174549why do gamers whinge so much whenever something takes them out of their comfort zone?
>>495174549there's no such thing as dead on arrival when 70% of the player base just uses quickplay
>>495175513timers are bad, I saw a reddit thread about pet peeves in videogames and it was highly upvoted
>>495175476A timer AND very linear. Why, this might end up being darktide's best mission yet!
>>495175476Yeah this raised my eyebrows too. Their previous levels in Vermintide maybe had wider environments but most of Darktide's levels are cramped corridor simulators with very minimal path branching. If the new train mission is "highly linear" compared to that I wouldn't be surprised if the player can barely move two steps left and right all mission lol.
>>495175476the last snowy mission was more open
>>495175476I think what they mean is more narrow level design. The other levels aren't non linear but they do have very wide environments, depending on mission
Fartshart fucked up majorly by giving the Darktide maps such soulless names.Against the Grain. The Screaming Bell. Righteous Stand. Tower of Treachery. Horn of Magnus. You can read any of these and the map will instantly pop into your head if you've played VT2.Meanwhile in Darktide: Refinery. Smelter Complex. Relay Station. Consignment Yard. Wtf is this shit? The only maps that are really memorable despite their name are the very enjoyable ones like Archivum Sycorax, or if you played the game for 800h so everything is etched into your memory anyway.
>>495177024i've played the game for 800 hours and i couldn't name a third of the maps in general, never mind the specific variants
>>495177308kek this. whatchua want senpai dark hallway with zig zags or dark hall way with zig zagz in reverse
>>495177024It's retarded conflicting design from how nobody is calling the shots, horizontal heirarchies and all that dogshit. Basically in a normal dev studio you'd have a guy pitch his ideas and someone gives the greenlight. In this people just kinda go "uhh whose responsibility is this? Let's just do something inoffensive that nobody will mind for now" and it's never someones problem againIn this specific case the idea is probably to have names that evoke a hive city feeling, like it's just another consignment yard etc. The problem with that is that they then also design the maps so you keep coming across the same sections in different maps so you'd want something to actually associate these places with
>>495177308it's part of the narrative, you don't know where you were or why you were there
>>495177308The only ones my brain instantly visualizes when I think of the name are:>Archivum Sycorax>Hab Dreyko>Carnival maps (Mercantile, Warren)>Ascension RiserRest is all slop in my brain.
>Something else to sink your teeth into when you have the urge to slay heretics, but you’re more limited on time.Yea let's appeal to phone casuals who can only do 5 minute gaming sessions because those people play games like darktide
>>495175083>roberto
I hope you can push heretics off the train After you shoot them
>>495177024I played 666 hours of darktide and I don't know the map names. I only know the general vibes of the regions, ieThe torrent is the green sewersThe hourglass is yellow and full of sandMetalfab is magma redThroneside is a blue high-end urban environmentThe carnival is a green(ish? light brown?) low-end urban environmentThe one snow map filters shitters immediately
i would like to fuck swagger's face and throat with my pickaxeshut up you mouthy little queer
>>495177024Based Sycorax enjoyer, going down the stairs while mowing heretics down is always a delight
if ogryns were real, they'd speak in about 80% slurs
>>>495179167>Strawhat is just an AI chatbot fatshark rented out and set to internet gremlin mode.
>>495179427Are you talking like drunk slur or like nigger slur?
>>495179749probably both honestly
Apparently the maps were supposed to be somewhat procedural where you'd go on a different path each game through the overall region but then fatshark failed to implement it.
>>495179167I don't think anything they write is AI generated, they're just scandinavians. Sounding so soulless it'd be mistaken for AI drivel is normal for them.
>>495179167I checked the whole text btw and it's seemingly just that segment. The last sentence set off my chatgpt wordy drivel sensors, nobody would actually type shit like this out
>>495180113wordy chatgpt drivel is just corpospeak. vague, upbeat, shifting artlessly from empty topic to empty topic.
>>495180113It's just corporate cant.
>>495180257>>495180365Can confirm; corpo talk is just using buzzwords while being as vague as possible.>t. corporat
>>495180257>>495180365not gonna argue that but these checkers are pretty accurate, It stands to reason that they'd rather have chat gpt spit out empty corpo drivel instead of coming up with it yourself
>>495180538>these checkers are pretty accurateproofs?
>reinstall darktide since playing SM2 made me want to shoot baddies and it's better than VT for that>familiar issues but the netcode feels even more atrocious, I'm getting kills on specials I'm not even aiming at, extremely bad at interpreting melee inputs, zero communication with players, post-mission load screen took about 4 minutes>gamepass wifi consoleshitters are never ever going away So many things in this game feel like a step backwards from VT2, and with this news I think the game is just dead
So with the crafting rework I'll be able to switch this piece of shit into a glorious Mk IV?
It's so fucking funny to me that their best idea for a new mission gimmick was just>lets put a timer on it!!!!!!Why not a turret section where the rejects gets to use a stationary heavy weapon for a bit or something? Who the fuck thought a timer of all things would be a good idea
>don't panic>don't panic>PANICsorry-masen siblings i'll remember to press special attack next time
>>495183889qrd? we getting a new map on the 26th?
>>495184142it's on a train and you have to stop it before it esplodes
>>495183889Man don't be so miserable, it'll literally be on a moving train that's about to crash into something. It's fine and the mission sounds cool, the only caveeat I have with it is that it's apparently short
>>495184694I'm just like the Karnak twins it will be dead in a week, but no negativity in the dojo
>>495185186and? I loved the karnak twins

My 1 wish with the new update is that the Surge blessing effects the secondary attack on the Surge staff and not the primary fire
>forever winter comes out on the 24thLMAO darktide bros can't stop taking Ls

Fellas Payday 3 is like $20, please tell me it's in a worthy enough state to purchase. I miss heist kino.
I just remembered the guy who called people retarded for not buying the GOLD version of payday 3 for 110$. It gets all the DLC for free, guys!
Darksloppers I can't wait for the update, has the autist hivemind yet agreed on a consensus of the preview patch notes? Are we back?
>>495197498the only RNG involved with weapon crafting is now the stat distro, the weps are at 380 now and you can put blessings and perks deterministically on a wep and swap the mark on the flyform your own opinion based on that
>>495195963Payday 1 and 2 were pretty damn good so I can't really fault him for trusting his pattern recognition rather than his gamer wisdom.>no preorders>no exceptions
>>495197498We are so back, we might be back a bit too much. I like buffs like everyone else but there are so many we might have to moderate difficulty ourselves.
>>495198292If someone bought into their monetization model after pd2 I'd call it the opposite of pattern recognition
melee is so ass in space marine, they werent kidding. makes me miss Toughness so much.
>>495197498Darktide Is About to Have Its Helldivers Moment
You are having fun in YOUR aurics right? Someday I'm going to hit 500k boss damage.
>>495165242i dont know why everyones shitposting this cause its the most standard shooter build ever. also vraks mk7 fucks hard. and i'll add i also like Born Leader.
>>495200662In a week maybe. I'm going to play around with pysker right now. I'm going to ruin the game for other people with my surge staff.
>>495200786>more overkill than actual damage
y'all really in for a rude awakening next week from overhyping the nth glorified crafting rework and balance patch
>>495202093is the game going to stop being fun
>>495202093talent and weapon updates are the only thing i give a shit about anyways. content would only excite me if we got Tyranids or something massive like that.
>>495201872Only by 2k! It was almost perfectly balanced. Thunder hammer always does over kill.
>>495202657Post your build, I've never been able to make the thunder hammer work for me.
>>495202093It won't change things much.Core gameplay was fun but lacked variety prepatch.Core gameplay will still be fun and we'll get maybe 2% more variety postpatch.Not much will change and the playercount will die down to 3.5k after a few weeks.
>>495202093I think you are gay there's like 20 weps I havent tried out yet cause the crafting was too cancerjust letting me pick blessings will give me like 200 hours of gameplay
why don't the swedes just add fsr2/dlss to helldivers if they can't be bothered to optimize it? the ceo's stance on "fake graphics" doesn't mean anything when the game already has fsr1sucks because the game can be fun but not when it runs at 50fps while darktide (a game on the same engine) runs at 90+
>>495203943Fartshart made that engine so I'm not surprised they optimize a bit better with it. Seems fucking retarded to call fsr2/dlss "fake graphics" though. Like sure it's bad to rely on it but why the fuck not have it asa performance option? Ass backwards faggot trying to make lack of features a feature in itself.
>>495203943From what I've gathered following their statements, I don't think Arrowhead actually have anyone on the dev team who really understands how temporal upscalers such as FSR2/DLSS work (even though from my experience it's fairly easy to implement them if a game already has TAA, which Helldivers does). FSR1 looks awful in comparison but it's a spatial upscaler and easier to implement.
>>495122605Your build seems a bit unoptimal>I run the Brainburst chance with the surge for random head popsI really don't think that's efficient for dps at all. Maybe it would be worth it if it didn't have the 15 second cooldown, but I would recommend you drop it and the movement speed node (???why tf would you even choose that???) at the bottom right and take mettle and perfect timing instead. Both of those talents benefit crit builds far more than kinetic flayer or 5% move speed. This next one isn't quite as important, but I would also recommend that you drop either quietude or battle meditation for perilous combustion, I would personally drop battle meditation. Three soulblaze stacks doesn't sound like much, but the damage adds up quickly the more enemies there are and it provides a solid boost to your overall damage throughout a game. With the surge staff, I would recommend taking warp flurry over terrifying barrage. With the obscurus, I would recommend you take either the illisi or deimos instead depending on whether you want horde clear or single target damage.https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2917274959If you don't already know about it, this steam guide is incredibly helpful for learning about the current meta and various tips and tricks to optimize your psyker builds and playstyle. It should be required reading for all psykers imo.
>>495203067Used with Flamer.
>>495203689The majority of this thread is 1000 hours in and lost all perspective for what it's like to give up on a weapon because it's too much a pain in the ass to grind for. I don't think this update is going to change DT's playercount in the long run but I'm going to have fun with it.
>>495206418I was tinkering with the build earlier when I noticed I was getting more crits in than I realized. I'm working with perfect timing right now. Perilous combustion feels situational to me and Soul Blaze never wowed me with its DPS. I'll test it and see if it's something I want in my build when time permits. >movement bonus.I'm not currently using it, but at the time the slightly faster movement speed felt like an okay choice since the other options didn't appeal to me. I'm sure I'm not fully optimized but I don't want to go full "You have to use these skills and these skills only or you should KYS".Courtesy of the locks, that's how my staff will be until the update at least.
>>495207325I got less than <250 before I got hard filtered by it t b h. Granted, a chunk of that time was in the pre-order beta, so there was no way to know how bad it would be.
>>495100124We have discovered a new form of jank that may surpass even slavjank. We require brave scientists to venture forth and catalogue its features and identify it significant differences.Cannot source this right now so take it with some salt. Devs were surprised that people were taking advantage of the friendly fire mechanic to kill their friends so they could take the good loot back themselves. They're still undecided on how to punish for this.

>>495201312Yeah Born Leader seemed like it would go particularly nicely with the keystone talent that gives allies toughness for spent tag stacks. Helps that suppression isn't something I want, and the 10% damage isn't likely to be impactful on breakpoints and if it is, I'm too lazy to check.
Realistically Tzeentch would be on the side of Order but unintentionally.If it made any sense Tzeentch would actively be trying to make peace instead of a constant state of never ending war because isnt a never ending war in of itself stagnation and thats what Tzeentch abhors?

What's the deadline for me to sacrifice as many weapons for lower-level blessings as I can before they convert over to the new system?
>>495254708Strawhat said in the announcement thread that you would be better off keeping the weapons to feed them into the grinder post-patch, generally speaking. She also said you need all T4 blessings and roughly half of T3 blessings (or some other ratio of this that has about the same value) to max out mastery for that family. So you can either just get as close as possible to that and then scrap the rest after the update. Or trust Strawhat and just keep all of it for after
>>495149743>I love with thebret longsword, the french batteI didn't buy the class so I can't try that. Maybe when the next sale hits.

>>495256989It's never laggy for me.
>>495254887So if I have unclaimed blessings, it's good to claim then now before the rework? Does it even matter?
forever winter looks like mega jank, i don't understand the hype
>>495247681>>495245696I wasn't even at 500k and I was constantly mulching hordes and delaying missions just to kill stuff. I didn't feel like I deserved the frame when they lowered it.
>>495263738That anon said that Strawhat explicitly said its better to use them later. We could split the difference and only claim whatever T3 blessings we are still missing and ignore the ones with T2s until after the update. I would say that regardless of the answer its most important to look at the stat bars as the priority. If it has close to ideal stat bars, don't sacrifice it for anything.
>>495263939interesting concept on paper so people imagine a game that HAS to be cool. It's kinda like the Snyder cut before seeing the thing. Game will probably quickly fizzle out
>>495264014I thought you'd be able to level up weapons later so you could max their stats?
>>495264238There's supposed to be randomization on what those maxes are. The closer your base weapon right now is to being ideal, the more likely it is that whatever system they use to raise the ceiling should get it to pass all the important thresholds. There's also the future to consider, who knows exactly how red weapons will be implemented and interact with the current stat bars.
>>495264445Neat, I have a lot of "almost perfect" weapons that have one or two stats that could use some improvement. Once I'm able to remove all the locks, I'll have a nice little armory across all 4 of my operatives. Topping off certain stats will be nice, but removing the locks and being able to swap out all the perks and blessings will make touching up a weapon a lot less painful.
>>495264132its just an extraction looter shootera better concept would be kingdom death: monster
>>495183889>turret sectionIt's 2024 boomer-kun, get on with the times
>>495269060A turret section would be a little silly. However, I wouldn't mind some "heavy weapons" built for more defensive play like a hotshot lasgun with a massive battery pack like you see enemy gunners toating around. Give the Zealots a melter. Give the Ogryn (good lord) any mixture of heavy bolters, chain bolters, lascanons, heavy flamers, and maybe even multilasers if you want some real heretical shit.>what about psykers?What kinda force powers don't they have at this point? Explodie, burnie, zappie, and the canon shot cover a wide gambit of death. Maybe a long-range beam staff with a DoT effect that stacks like the purgatus staff? The left click shoots out a little piddly beam but you can charge it with the right click to increase the size and power of the beam. The beam can penetrate multiple enemies and has a stacking stagger effect (you can give it diminishing returns past x amount of penetrations) giving it versatility at range. It'd be good at crowd control but only if you're in a tight corridor, otherwise the beam would be too narrow (even at full charge) to handle large groups effectively.
Why is sienna so unpopular? Is it because she's a Karen?
>>495271682I find her annoying in VT2
>>495230183Ping stuff for Ping.

>>495271682I don't think she's all that bad, and I doubt many other do either. It's just that the eternal *lf player is that much more prevalent.
The amount of seethe on the forums over the train having a timer and being a short but intense level is funny. Lotta bitchmade niggas out there.
>>495271682Because most people fuck up playing her really badly, which is in turn because everything about her classes is a double edge sword.With the wizard, you can blow up half the map, but not the really important parts that actually endanger the team.With the pyro, you are much like the wizard but not as good.With unchained, you're a either a damage dealer or a tank or both, but if you make a mistake doing one or the other you explode.Everything is always on edge and you really have to do it correctly or it goes wrong.Basically, highest skill floor class.

>>495286953Can't wait to have a heavy sword on my tallarn gf and behead those who direspect the Emperor
someone wants to play ratclick with me?
>>495287379Post a code and I'll join
>>495287747I'm a noob who recently started and got his first hero to 30. so I don't even know how to generate a "code"
>>495287747Ah, you probably mean friend code? I'd rather not post it on the chans.
>>495288982>>495288064Have to go now, but another time when someone says to post lobby code (either for ratclick, helldivers, or another game that works with steam lobbies) You can go to your profile page and there's a funny green button, you right click it and copy the link address and the link should look a little something like steam://joinlobby/2183900/109775243202330131/76561198048360915 for example.Other players will put this into their browser of choice and it should launch the game into your lobby, or redirect a running game to join it. It's how anons here play with one another without posting their accounts or namedropping eachother
>>495289798alright didnt know that. tahnks!
>>495289798I wouldn't want to rat out my boy FartSniffa3999
>>495284897Don't worry anon, I'm on my way to 2000 hours. <3
>>495292123I got like three hunnid
>>495292683Time to join MY aurics and add another 700.
no one ever posts some lobby code anyway
>>495293675Ok add me.
>>495293683Unironically the players here are too good. It's not as fun playing with good players.
>>495289798That button stopped existing for my profile about a year ago, wonder why.
All along, you didn't want me to join your aurics not because I would drag you down, but because it'd be boring to play with a fellow good player. Anon-sama, I got you all wrong. Forgive me...
OK RATLICK OR DEEP ROCK LOBBY I WARN YOU AM YURO
>>495273173I like the timer. First good decision FS have made in years.
>>495294297You have your profile shit set to super private, dont you?It requires game visibility to be on
>>495296970No. Fully public. I already tried fixing this a while ago and nothing works.
>>495293846They're both fun. I like playing with anons because its usually just a fun time playing with other retards from here.I also like playing with retarded players because it lets me feel like I'm limit testing/limit breakingkami sama forgive me for i must go all out, just this once...
>>495297809>>495297809>>495297809>>495297809early due to multiple updates
>>495297964Bro are you retarded
>>495297964fucking retard
>>495297964been sent to call you a retard
>>495298289Samefagged to try and bump the thread, so probably
>earlyfag seethes he was out early'ed
>>495263738I basically said the exact opposite of that
>>495297964I may or may not have notified the authorities of this.FAGGOT
>>494952601
why the fuck are there two threads
Is EDF6 worth touching as a first entry?The price tag seems kinda steep.
>>495327559just because ok?
>first time playing in months>dipshit runs into a bug breach and instantly dies>for some reason he thinks I killed him and I get TK'd immediately>wait until the end of the match and spray him and his samples all over the landing pad right before extract>he actually explodes in chat, line after line of "****************"that felt great
update?
