I feel bad for Ward being surrounded by idiots
>>507660369as if ward is any better
>>507660425he isn't a tranny or jewtuber and wrote vermintide. His biggest shit is Trazyn the redditor but everyone loves him apparently

I crafted my first exotic and I think that I might've gotten lucky, unlimited ammo so long as you can hit headsBut apparently you're not supposed to bother with crafting until the endgame
>>507662935Cute noob
Would someone mind recommending a FoTF+Immo nade build?
>>507662935yeah you're missing like 60 levels of power and you get free shit from commendation crates that'll carry you through so its pointless

Is Rannick hot?
what the fuck is up with all the retards in my matches? 17 deaths to get to the end. did everyone unbind their dodge/block?
>>507669770Thanks
I miss when /vg/ had more posters who were actually good at video games and didn’t seethe at those who are
>>507673207>he says while someone asked for a build,received one free of mockery and thanked the giver above his post
>>507673348it was in reference to the tail of the previous thread. anons helping anons however warms me heart
>>507673207The amount of sheer cope and self-report skill issue I’ve seen of people for havoc 40 is literally mind boggling. Not even havoc 40 actually, people having trouble with 20 and up (the ranks where it stops being completely braindead easy) and then complaining about “artificial difficulty”. Complaining about builds other than DA META being “impossible to run”.First of all, stop. You have skill issue.Havoc mode is darktide on crack cocaine. Yes, the gunner trash mobs are hilariously overtuned and will transform you into swiss cheese if you aren’t butt-sliding every millisecond. Yes, the player character is massively nerfed and enemies massively buffed to a ludicrous degree. Yes, the game director CAN AND WILL lift a finger and spawn an entire hab-block’s worth of armored elites slavering for your plush little guardsman behind.That’s literally the entire point.Notice how, instead of whining about the difficulty and sobbing all over their keyboards, the actually good players have already cleared True survivor while you’re still stuck at 22? Oh, but I’m sure it’s totally your teammates that are screwing you over. I’ll be the first to say that I’m nowhere near god-like at this game, but if my idiot ass was able to clear a clandestium havoc 40 with randoms, you can too.tl;dr stop whining and start winning
dead general
I played some Aurics for the first time in a couple weeks.They are a lot more enjoyable than Havoc.
>>507673876>but if my idiot ass was able to clear a clandestium havoc 40 with randoms, you can too.>b-b-but m-muh META>I REFUSE I REFUSE I REFUSE *shits self*>brings a build that's barely even viable in aurics, chews through 100% ammo reserves by the first horde, contributes nothing to the team, dies, wipes in havoc 22>TEAM UNGA ME BUNGA>spends half the thread throwing an autistic tantrum about how much the game forces you to play MUH META>doesn't actually understand why half the meta shit even is meta>gets invited to a high level party, proceeds to be complete dead weight, griefs the team by vacuuming up ammo, spreads out and dies several times>decides to stick with the team on the third life, then stands in a corruption puddle without a single health or corruption res curio and falls over to the next poxie>WEEH ARTIFICIAL DIFFICULTY>refuses to bring gunner resist for some autistic reason like multiplicative stacking diminishing returns>then whines about getting instagibbed by gunnersYou don't actually think that someone who gets filtered in 20s has any fucking chance to even get through a 30+, much less true survivor?I get that you can kinda get carried through true survivor, but the baseline level of skill required is still so much higher than what the average retard can manage.
>>507677565show me on the doll where the ogryn touched you
>>507677780I actually got high enough level in the first week that I dodged all of the shitters, and never had to play with deadweight retards, so I easily got my true surv by the second week. I'm just making fun of the retards I see crying about havoc. I've played with good ogryn and good off-meta builds, they're fine if the player is good.
>>507677968I got havoc 40 but never got TS because honestly im not skilled enough nor do I play enough the game just kind of stops being compelling what the fuck does fatshit do all day
>>507678346If you got 40, you're skilled enough to do true survivor. An easy-ish map with easy-ish modifiers and everyone agreeing to run a team comp that's really easy to execute, then sticking together and religiously following pings, should let you get it in a couple of attempts, even with randos.Double chorus with psykinetic aura really does hit different.That is, if you care enough. I respect not giving a fuck.
Cadia?More like CACAdia!
I really hope they add the other maps to havoc soon. Made it to havoc 35 but playing the same 6 maps is pretty fucking gay.At least the carnival maps are pretty fun, I get to do stupid shit like this
:>
>>507678940Clandestium is the funniest. I once threw a monstrosity and a daemon host that was accidentally pulled, off the edge.>but playing the same 6 maps is pretty fucking gay.Agreed. I vaguely understand why the map rotation is so narrow, but the wait for new maps entering the rotation fucking sucks.>inb4 they add hourglass to havocI can only imagine the nightmare of having to load the barrels into the machine when there's 3 million enemies and aids everywhere.
>>507679049The goggles are really the best cosmetic they've added so far, it's the only thing so far that has gotten me to pig out for beyond the initial preorder or premium aquillas i had on hand
>>507679226Yeah it's not hard to see why the map rotation is so small, the barrel hauling objectives on high havoc would make me lose hair real fast. Still wish they had a different counterpart just for more variation though. Could very easily swap some objectives around on existing maps to make them havoc variants or something more interesting like that. I honestly really like havoc as a game mode.
>>507679614and it goes very well with that free chest piece. I want more cables on my psyker
>>507679956>I honestly really like havoc as a game mode.Same, I have a hard time going back to aurics now. Being conditioned to actually respect shooters and consider my actions instead of diving headfirst into the biggest pack of enemies I can find has been a refreshing experience.I'd also like to see them adding certain maps as potentially "higher" levels, either through penances or simply added in rotation, like Excise Vault or Hab Dreyko/Silo Cluster.
>>507680527I hope the new carnival map is foreshadowing for another Rinda boss fight, maybe when eliminations are added to rotation. Maybe less annoying by design than the twins, but now with jacked up stats from havoc.
>>507680763wow yeah that would be great yet another captain reskin you should work at fatshark
>>507681486A captain with a dedicated arena and arena effects.Let's be realistic, anon. I've given up hope that fatshark will design anything that requires actual dev time, and implementing something like that would be easy.
>>507677968true survivor is the new auric storm when it comes to arrogant metaslave title
Why are players so fucking shit at havoc above 20+?we're only JUST starting a fucking mission and 2 randoms just run in and wake up a daemonhost running away from the monstrosity and leaving myself and another player behind to fend off a horde along with gunners/maulers/ragers on us instead of just staying and helping.
>>50768591420-30 is the peak midwit zone because thats the range of players that don't realize you aren't supposed to play it like auric and cant handle everything solo without consequence.

>>507687867>objective pops up>you finish it before anyone realizes it needs doing>retard gets netted>you instantly free them>retard gets dogged>you kill the dog within 2 seconds tops>retard gets down>you're the first one there clearing all the enemies and going for a res>you make a single mistake and get dogged/netted/downed>haha oh the good guy has got this>they don't reailze it's the good guy who is disabled>nobody even looks at you for a full minute and you time out and die>objective needs doing, but can't be soloed>retards won't even look at you hacking or carrying a barrel, and you have to fight for your fucking life and/or get luckyMany such cases.
>>507689296for me it's "people" not freeing you from the net. They probably think it takes as much time as rezing someone (and they never put revive speed on their curio) because of the icon being the same
>>507689653>They probably thinkNo they don't. Half the fucking player base has no pattern recognition or object permanence. They'll melee box bursters over and over, even past level 25, die to them, and then do it again. They'll shoot them next to teammates and kill them, or throw them off a cliff. It doesn't matter if you demonstrate pushing them away, they plain do not recognize the pattern.They'll use a full medicae as the only player that needs one, eat several wounds due to being shit, and still refuse to react to ping spam trying to herd them into the 3/4 medicae.
>>507689956how do they function IRL, are they flesh automatons?!

>>507689956Usually "people" are doing on purpose if they do it multiple times in my aurics. It's annoying as fuck when some deadweight shitter keeps trying to kill the ones who are carrying them
>>507690605Just do your actions a second earlier, then

>>507690929>Usually "people" are doing on purpose>in my auricsYes, in aurics it's gotta be on purpose more often than not.>outside of auricsNo, they're just extremely retarded. You should try and play in (non-auric) malice and heresy some time. Go level a fifth character. It's torture.

>>507685914people are bad between 20 and 30. It's kinda like heresy. From 30+ most people understand how to play according to the meta, which makes games run relatively smoothly. I play mostly 35+ with randos and my winrate is pretty high these days.

I finally decided to do those dumbfuck puzzles in the Ubersreik DLC and low and behold you unlock new weapons for completing the three on each character.Is the Kerillian 1h axe decent? It seems fun on Handmaiden and I'm struggling to find a weapon I actually like to use, not that I'd even know what weapons aren't total shit yet. I only have 100 hours in V2 and I dont see any stand-out options. Can someone give me some thoughts on V2 weapons in general? I think the Halberd on Kruber is decent but I need some genuine ratfag opinions.

>>507710208Nurgle thing, you wouldn't understand.
>>507704698>Can someone give me some thoughts on V2 weapons in general?Most DLC Weapons are in the top tier and hard to go wrong with them. Bretsword, Mace&Sword, Shield&Spear, Flame Flail, billhook, dual hammers, coghammer, javelin, etc.Throwing Axes for Bardin are mid, and the Elf Axe is at the bottom for elf.Base weapons as easier starters,Kruber - Two-Handed Hammer for armour and crowd control. Excellent choice for any Kruber.Halberd for general use once you get used to the combos. Executioner Sword is fun, but has notable weakness of poor mobility and getting caught on too many elites in higher difficulties. Huntsman, wants either the mobility of 1h mace or 1h sword, or the stagger thp and safety of a shield.Bardin - Two-Handed Hammer for general use or one-handed hammer for mobilityGreat-Axe is fine for Ironbreaker or Slayer. Ironbreaker wants to leverage his huge inherent toughness into offense, and should generally avoid shields.Axe&Shield is fine for Ranger; Kerillian - Sword&Dagger, is still the best elf meleeGlaive, for a weapon with some stagger and casual armour damage.Spear, is a decent general use weapon. handmaiden can get a little more out of it with her high stamina regen fuelling pushattack combos.Saltzpyre - Rapier for stabbing. Flail if you hate shieldvermin.Sienna - Flaming Sword for control; very good on Famished Flames Battle Wizard. Mace for general use.
I made a 4-player co-op game called Hellbirther, the game's free if anyone's interested. Basically an Ace Combat inspired action game where you control a walking tank drone and blow shit up while leveling up and unlocking lots of new stuff. Game's not 100% finished but it's pretty close, and I've designed it to be playable as if it was finished despite the campaign missing the final missions.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93c8DhkhCS4It's not on Steam yet, right now the game is available as a .zip that you extract wherever you want. Co-op works with Player 1 on kb+m and the rest of the players on controller, either local or with online remote play (Parsec or whatever). I've only played it co-op a little bit but it was really cool going through the campaign with other players backing me up on the harder difficulties. Every mode works with co-op. I'll be busy for a while but at some point I want to come into here and try to grab 3 random people to film some co-op gameplay with (assuming I can find 3 people that are down to try it out)

>play ogryn>carrying is easy>play zealot>carrying is hardwhy is this? I play on level 3 difficulty.
>>507704185whats her @ ?
>>507717268>why is this? I play on level 3 difficulty.Because you play on lvl 3 difficulty
>>507643098https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wgN1sLcAQnw
>>507662935Yeah conservative shooter is really good
I feel like the only classes that can carry havoc shitters is zealot with chorus and corruption cleanse or Psyker with bubble spam. Whenever I try Shout veteran I can't keep everyone alive. Ogryn can't do much without another team make knowing how to play.
>>507719232yes, but why is Ogryn better on lvl 3 diff than on higher scaled diffs?conversely, why is Zealot better on higher scaled difficulty?
>>507704891Thank you my friend, Sigmar bless you
>>507702991It's shit anyway. Doesn't look good no matter which weapons you use with it. Handjobmaiden is the "tank" class of Elf, she should be armored and not get mage cosmetics. I don't like that people will be running everywhere with those cosmetics now.Fuck cosplay skins in general, what a dumb idea.
>>507726169Ogryns aren't as prone to chip damage on lower difficulties and zealots require more skill to play effectively on higher difficulties
>>507717268Try locating your block and dodge buttons and using those. Ogryn is easy because you have 3 gorillion toughness and health for free, while zealot requires investment that you probably aren't making because you're new and don't know or have access to the stuff to build it.Once you actually start dodging and sliding well, ogryn will feel like complete shit.
>>507728132They feel like shit on havocs. In aurics you can go in and just kill enemies in situations where you would kite enemies in circles with other classes
>>507728301I meant more feel like shit to play, not feel ineffective. Ogryn is sluggish by design and just gets annoying. Whenever I play the class too much, going back to zealot feels like a fucking power trip.Power wise, gunlugger specifically feels fucking great in aurics. In havoc, it's mostly 30+ that makes ogryn fall behind a lot, but a good ogryn is still useful in my experience. Buuut the same player on chorus zealot is a lot more effective.>inb4 skill issueI don't play ogryn into havocs, I don't want to grief my team.
How good is Opportunist blessing on eviscerators?It should do lot of damage to enemies that you specifically saw into, right? Since when you do that it staggers the enemy.
>>507728794I often play ogryn in havocs and maelstrom exactly because they feel chill but still top the scoreboard
>>507726169you either facetank or you don'togryn on difficulty 3 = facetank yesogryn on havocs = facetank no
>>507728794I think lot of ogryn's movement problems would be solved if fatshark changed the placement for the "Unstoppable Momentum" talent and then buffed it by making it like +25% movement speed on kill for 4 seconds.Since currently the talent is only +20% movement speed on RANGED kill.Which is kind of weird imo, since it'd work very well with melee ogryns too thematically as well since you become literal freight train barreling towards the enemy about to crush them flat.
>>507728856Rampage and shred. Sounds boring, but those are the 2 worth getting
>>507729225Just give me a keystone or something that lets me knock over chaff enemies by walking into them, and noclip through anything knocked down smaller than an ogryn.
>>507728856> Since when you do that it staggers the enemy.Haha. Nope! That's what I thought might be the case too, but when I tried it out once it was introduced, it did a big fat 0 (extra damage) to Maulers and Crushers. Try it out for yourself to be sure though. It could've changed since, or I could be misremembering.
>>507729437Honestly, that shouldn't even be a keystone, that should just be something ogryn can do innately.Like you're telling me that this 2.5-3 meter tall giant can't walk through a horde rotting corpses as he keeps smashing them with a lead pipe? Bull-fucking-shit, fatshark.
>>507729629Well that's fucking gay.Oh well, I'll just go with the usual shred and rampage then.
>>507729683It confuses me that this isn't a thing, even. Player characters already use inertia in their movement, why not just have ogryn knock into things and cost a bit of speed every time, and convey damage according to how much speed you lost?
>>507729683>>507729951The annoying thing is that enemy Ogryns do this. Player Ogryns can get fucked.
>>507727412>Fuck cosplay skins in general, what a dumb idea.Only good one is Huss Saltzpyre. I can totally see Saltz looking up to a gigaSigga like ol' Luthor
>its another autistic knife zealot rushing ahead and leaving the other three to deal with the entire levels enemies
>>507729225>>507728794Ogryn is fine on lower difficulties because he's specifically balanced around being so sluggish that he often eats shit, but is able to take it by hitting shit over the head a lot. The moment he stops being able to take it you have all drawback and no benefit from it anymore. He's just straight up more sluggish and has nothing to balance it outStraight buffs wont change this much unless you gave him gamebreaking stats. There's two ways to deal with this problem. One could be speeding him up, which basically giving up on the unique design which imo is lame. The other way, which I think is far more interesting, is making sure he retains his "don't give a fuck I'm an ogre" in some form. If he could wade through horde enemies, for example, it would give him a lot of movement and freedom that he needs in Havoc while remaining unique. Another thing that could feed into this approach is giving him good stagger values back. I'm not saying he should be able to stunlock bosses like he used to but goddam even a dueling sword can stun mutants. Gotta make his CC actually impactful to make up for his sluggishness. There's a lot of concepts they could play with here. Another could be talent additions/changes/buffs such as giving him a form of ranged DR with some interesting conditions, or maybe playing into the suppress mechanic a bit more. I'm always amazed that shooters just stand there and plink at a 10 foot ogryn rampaging through what is supposed to be their cover. Would be pretty cool if Ogryn had a "suppress on meele kill" talent or something like this.
>boss at the very start of Clandestium Gloriana when you have two botsMay as well leave right there.
>>507731495>shove relic in his face>he falls to his death
>>507731008Also I forgot to say another aspect of this is that other characters are just too tanky comparatively. Vet has all the fun stuff vets have but he gets to tank crusher overheads and facetank shooters even more than Ogryn does, who is specifically built to be slow and sluggish in exchange for being tanky. How does that make any sense whatsoever?
>>507730864your fault for not leaving the moment you seen the knife
>>507732685>How does that make any sense whatsoever?Malice. Ogryn is balanced for malice.The devs are malicelets, the playtesters are pro gaymers that take their job very seriously and ogryn isn't ADHD enough, and the few retards that care about ogryn are brain damaged enough to convincingly LARP as one.Try playing ogryn into malice, it actually feels like you're obscenely tanky. You can just eat hits in melee left right and center and only lose like 10% of your health while the veteran might've keeled over if not for pissing on himself. It really does feel like it's supposed to be a low skill class for low difficulties, hence why it's somehow getting repeatedly nerfed despite being objectively weak in the highest difficulties.
>>507730864>>507732996On behalf of all knife zealots I apologize. I’m one of the good ones who focuses on specials and elites :)
>>507730079>>507731008I do honestly like the idea as an ogryn you can push smaller enemies out of your way just by walking into them. It would give them that nice bit of mobility while still keeping true to original idea and makes him more unique as a class.Though I do also want some proper buffs to ogryn and his skills.Like buffing his base toughness from 50 to 70 like zealot has it. And also reverse some of the nerfs to his skills, like reverse the delight in destruction nerf.Another is reworking just really bad skills that no one wants to use.Like for example take Won't Give In, they should rework it so that you get a damage reduction for how many enemies are near you. Like say "5% damage reduction having 2 or more enemies near you. Stacks 8 times."
>>507733484Ogryn only needs a few minor buffs and have the awful blessings fixed/reworked for half the weapons. The biggest issue is the complete lack of diversity in build decision making. Compare ogryn against psyker, it's ridiculous.
>>507733484Yeah I said I don't think he needs stat buffs, but base toughness buffs is one of the few I'd consider a sensical stat buff. Him having more toughness would bridge the gap with shooters a lot more. Another is his general first enemy hit damage on most weapons which is utter fucking dogshit. His overheads are mostly fine but goddamn try killing something with bully clubs light you'd think you're using a foam bat. The weps need tuningI'm willing to believe hwat other anons have said though and assume this will never happen because it'd make him really OP on malice even moreso than he is now. It's hard to balance Ogryn when you have to make sure he doesn't turn the joke difficulty into a joke, but the devs seemingly do take that approach.
>>507733750That too.Based on how Hank talked about the retarded and pointless skilltree change idea, was so where he implied that it would set ground work for more updates to come regarding ogryn's skilltree. And makes it sound like the devs are aware and thinking of reworking the ogryn skilltree.Butthis is just me theorizing, Hank could just be talking out of his ass here completely too and the devs give zero fucks about ogryn and the skilltree.
>>507734254>HankThe retard that spent the entire intro on his video stuttering and stumbling over his own words trying to make a joke, and ruining it because he can't speak, then kept that take and uploaded it to youtube without editing? Gee am I glad that he's the guy they listen to.

>>507733750The Psyker skull tree is insane though. By far the most advanced in the game
>>507710036and
>>507735838The psyker skill tree is well designed in that you make meaningful choices from the very start, with only a couple cookie cutter options that every build that can, should take.Veteran is somewhat similar, in that it can feel extremely tight for points if you want to take all the minmax shit, but with only some minor sacrifices, can personalize it to the point of making even bolter's awful swap and reload feel serviceable.Meanwhile zealot is completely schizo in that certain sides of the tree are obviously more useful than the others, but they're all on different sides in different tiers. Also for some reason you get some really overpowered melee crit nodes everywhere and if you take them all you just become a blender.Ogryn is me like rock me go left me go left me not forget cdr in middle. Maybe me go right because gun. Shit, half the nodes you pick up along the way are fucking worthless, and most forks are no-brainers as well.
psykers are the accountants of darktideboring and obsessed with numbers
I mainly play ogryn and the biggest difference comes down to how well the rest of the team playIf I get a team that knows how to move at pace correctly and capitalises on my bullrushes into gunner patrols then missions are an absolute cakewalkOn the other hand if you get a team that drags its heels and refuses to play with some level of aggression its miserable and you'll often get hung out to dry by them as they run off scared of a mauler or two
>>507736930if you pick ogryn then you are actively griefing
>>507737091+1 cope
>>507734736>wrote the definitive ogryn guide>retardcope harder
>>507736930>>507737091Ogryn is fine. People struggle to play havoc 40 period, having an ogryn is ok if he's good. If he's bad its over.
>knife zealot zooms away into the distance>everyone calls him a dick>he starts crying about how were being mean to him and how its definitely not him thats the dick, but everybody else in the team who are the dicksthe cognitive dissonance in knife zealots should be studied
>>507737576what you say applies to any class.
>>507737091If the devs nerf him any more that would unironically become true.
>>507736779Every accountant I’ve ever met was a fart smelling prick with delusions of grandeur and thought themselves more important than they actually were. Psykers are cool and the opposite of that

>>507737425>definitiveROFL
>>507738808>Every accountant I’ve ever met was a fart smelling prick with delusions of grandeur and thought themselves more important than they actually were.This is exactly how psykers are though?
>>507736424I wouldn't mind another redo of the zealot tree. You're pigeonholed into very specific things just for aurics let alone havoc. Some rending outside of F would be nice, haven't seen a dclaw or heavy sword in a while and when you do they're almost required to take a bolter which means they're almost required to take throwing knives. The build diversity isn't great
How can you guys talk about this shallow game all day long without becoming glue-eating retardes>inb4 "without?"
I just bought Darktide, what are those little percentages underneath the weapon info? Seems like they only go to 80%, are they critically important, is it possible to get all 80s and if so should I be aiming for that?
>>507741228This is among the most intelligent generals on /vg/ and the most experienced players are the most intelligent. I guess you just don't have the capacity to see below the surface of the seemingly simple gameplay
>>507741241each weapon has one dump or least important stat that you'll want at 60 or lower in specific cases. the rest of the stats you want at 80. most weapons dump mobility
>>507741241You can get all to 80% minus 20%
>>507741241X / Y%The first number is the current stats of the weapon, the second number is max potential stats of the weapon after Empowering it at Hadron's craft station. Max empower cap is increased through weapon masteries.A weapon at max level will reach Rating 500380 of those rating points belong to the stat bars. Which allows at max stats four 80%s and one 60%. Generally Mobility (or Defence) will be the stat you want at 60%.
>>507741241inspect weapon click on the stat to see what it doesthe jiffy is>you can get within 20% of maxing all of them at max level>it's usually best to keep the worst stat low>the worst stat (dump stat) is usually mobility>if the weapon has no mobility it's usually defense>if it has neither then you should either test yourself or ask if unsureGenerally though don't worry about it until your character is maxed, until then just try out weapons that dont have totally bad bars, they wont have bars filled to 80% until endgame
>>507741241We truly need the cat girl soldiers
>>507741241refund it if you're still within 2 hours, there's nothing worth seeing here
This franchise would unironically be a lot more popular if there were more Eldar and human teamwork.Another change is stop trying to make them different for the same of being different and just make them beautiful humans. I dont understand the westoid obsession with forcing diversity in races when it just makes them ugly or look stupid. Nobody wants your "unique elves" just make attractive humans with ears.

been dicking around editing mods and found something that crashes the server you're on. Like not just yourself, not just everyone on the server, it literally aborts the fucking mission lol. I did it three times and it did it all three times.

>>507770237They're harder to play for newbies and the weakest class overall.
>>507770007Don't be a smigger. Pay attention to your surroundings and audio cues and you will be better than 99% of the playerbase. The amount of time I've been netted right next to a teammate that ignores me is downright retarded. I don't get it.
>>507770369Alright.>>507770746>tfw no friends who play the game so probably just gonna go solo for a bit
>>507769554I guess you're just an ESL or something

>>507771445t. ESL
>>507770905>tfw no friends who play the game so probably just gonna go solo for a bitYou’re in the same boat as me. I’ve only been playing for about 3 weeks but it’s been fun even solo. Guess I’ve been lucky to not into the abysmal retards that are frequently talked about here
>>507773904>>507770746What is "smigger"
>>507774286Smite god. The most useful ability in the game that makes shitters seethe. Use it and you’ll be the best in no time.In all seriousness, it’s just something people here call those who use the Psyker’s smite ability because they claim it ‘ruins the game’ and takes the fun out of it due the fact it stunlocks enemies. It can be somewhat true, especially on lower difficulties, but at the same time it’s really powerful and useful in a tight pinch and can be used to give some much needed breathing room in higher difficulties.
>>507774286The wonderful thing about Smiggersis Smiggers are wonderful thingstops are made out of lightningtheir bottoms are made out of stunTheir mighty, smitey, fighty, flightyfun, fun, fun, fun, fun
>>507775362But the most wonderful thing about Smiggersis there is only oneSmiggers are cuddily psykersSmiggers are awfully sweeteveryone else is jealousThat's why I repeat and repeatThe wonderful thing about Smiggers Is Smiggers are marvoulous galsThey're loaded with vim and vigorthey love to leap in your lapsThey're jumpy, bumpy, clumpy, thumpyfun fun fun fun fun
>>507770007At least 80% of what it takes to play well in this game comes down to movement. Learn how and when to use your evasive manoeuvres. Beware yon barrel.>>507774286A Psyker that spams nothing but smite (basically sith lightning that stuns just about everything in front of you for as long as you channel it, very good crowd control). It's very good situationally for when shit is about to hit the fan and you need that mixed horde of ragers and crushers to come to a screeching halt for a moment so you can take some pressure off yourself and/or your teammates, but some players will use it and nothing but it against literally everything and it just becomes annoying. Melee enemies in this game have no sense of self-preservation and will run towards you in a straight, predictable line for you to easily cleave them down, but some dipshit holding them in place despite them posing no serious threat forces you to push into them instead.
>>507774286Don't listen to the other copes, smite can be fine yeah but it stands for Smite NiggerPeople who use it as an overly retarded crutch for such a long time that they legitimately do not know how to play the game anymore. The people who legitimately do not know they have a staff or a melee weapon, and will spend 95% of the game in blitz, and WILL die to pox walkers the moment there's more mobs than smite can handle and something is looking at them.Yes, there are swarms of pubs that will die to poxies that hold smite and not try to melee at all, that is what a smigger is, holding smite for no fucking reason when its not called for.

>>507782716There is some private discord where they gatekeep updated vacuum capsule mod, colored player chat text, and the naked (just underwear) mod at the very least. It's all "prohibited" by FS because they have to interact with the servers instead of being client side. I wouldn't be surprised if they actually do ban abusers that get reported, had a game with a vet running those mentioned with less levels than you would expect a screeching autist like that to have.

>>507782626Working on it>>507782491Nothing like a a co op general community with cunt rags unwilling to provide community :)
>>507784117Rookie mistake, this is the darktide general, where we complain about darktide and the fact that our teammates who we don't talk to aren't able to read our minds and play perfectly. There's nothing about co-op here.
>>507783642>There is some private discord where they gatekeep updated vacuum capsule mod>updatedIt's literally just For The Emperor! with a couple lines changed around. You just copy whatever line is used to execute the voice command, and then whatever lines in the localization and mod menu file so you can set a bind for them. You can effectively do any voice line, including "stairs", "relic", etc.Here's a bootleg I made a year ago. This one only adds the carriable objective callouts, and I'm not 100% sure whether it works, but you can look at the code and get an understanding for how I did it. I can't upload my bootleg version of the mod because I stripped some features, and that might break some functionality for others.https://files.catbox.moe/rh7czj.zipMaybe I should make an effort to update it with a menu selection or something of a couple dozen voice lines, just to piss off the discord trannies who think that gatekeeping a couple lines of code is worth having a sekrit klub for.
>>507784878>It's literally just For The Emperor!Nope. We got niggas spamming a very wide range of voicelines with no cooldown
I am gonna take the hit, gonna say the unpopular opinion because no one else will, Havoc fails at the most basic thing, it just ain't fun
>>507786356based.
>>507786356I think havoc would be fun if they didn't nerf the player character.
>>507786356Lots of people feel this way? People can here meme about le skill issue all they want but the fact is this is a severely undercooked game mode that is the definition of artificial difficulty and if that isn’t your thing then there’s nothing there for you whatsoever. Shame.
>>507786356Back to /twg/
>>507786356I enjoy it. It's a nice change of pace. Makes me really want something above Damnation too
>>507786356while I hate the player nerf I respect havoc for forcing me to experiment a bit, now I love the ogryn taunt ability and the vet bleed nade
>>507786356>it just ain't funIt's not really inherently fun, but I'm personally having a lot more fun playing havocs, than I ever had playing aurics. Retards get filtered. I fucking despise having to play with retards. Win/win for me.
>>507786356It's a niche one-and-done challenge mode, that's all. Regular aurics are a lot more fun and how the game should be played and havocs don't even compete.
holy shit I never gave the Hallberd L3 a chance but it rapes elites. Used to cycle between the heavy and light stab
I dislike havoc because of huge nerf to ammo pickupsTearing away one of the most fun aspects of the game doesn't seem like great design
>check auric maelstrom>waves of specials and nurgles blessing>check again later>waves of specials and hunting grounds>check again later>waves of specials and nurgles blessingWhy. Where is the monstrous specials? Enhanced blitz? Mostly melee? I'm tired of babby's first maelstrom, give me the wall of constant Crushers that will curbstomp the entire team.
Vault Spireside.. how I miss you.
>>507788474>>507788563trvke btw
>>507788563they really had no idea nor will to up the ante with denser hordes (thank you console plebs)
Only fun part about Havoc is it forces you to use teamwork, but it only does that in the most cancerous unfun way possible.
>>507788528no wonder why it deals so much dmg
>>507786356It would be 100% perfect if not for the player nerfs specifically. I like having to respect enemies, and I like actually being able to get hurt for a singular reason other than getting netted because nothing else in the entire game makes you stop and consider your actions, instead of all 4 players being invincible gods running at 400 kph divebombing packs of 60 gunners without taking any toughness damage. I feel like it had all the answers to what I hate about the current state of the game, but executed in the worst way possible. I find aurics fucking boring now.
>go in Psykhanium (damnation) >everything is fluid, smooth, responsive, 0 delay on attacks, things seem to die pretty quickly and consistently >pubs>0.5-1 second delay on all actions>weapon switching failing constantly>melee hits not registering, poxwalkers slapping me from retarded angles and distances >everything is noticeably spongier and harder to kill shit servers will ruin this game.
>>507789073the problem being that their spawn system paired with the player nerf is absolutely cancerous. A lone scab gunner will shredd your hp because he spawned in your back
>>507789073Fatshit put themselves in a corner. They can't up the enemy spawns due to consolebabies, so the only things they can do to make the game harder anymore are:>player nerfs>enemy sponging>better design/mechanics and they don't want to do #3 because that would actually require time and effort, so they just resorted to the first two in Havoc. The only new mechanic they could be bothered to make for Havoc was "enemies leave corruption goo when they die". Just pathetic. I will never buy their slop.
>>507789170Psykhanium is hosted on your own computer, I'm pretty sure. Multiplayer is always hosted on fatshark's servers. If you're having delay issues, I assume it's your connection acting up, or you selected the wrong region.I've very rarely had major problems myself, but other anons HAVE reported lag recently, so maybe it's a rare case of the servers shitting the bed.
>>507789598Filtered
>>507786356nah it's fun, just waiting for the rest of the maps and more modifiers
why do people who have no business being on higher difficulties insist on joining them?surely it can't be enjoyable to constantly eat shit and be stuck waiting to get revived for the whole game?
>>507792451They are retarded, want mats and they don't give a shit about being a burden. Typical turd world immigrants
>>507792451"Bro this ASS title would make me king in the heresy games, people would look at me and go holy shit you really did that?"

>>507793309Git gud
any1 wanna havek?
The two worst types to have on your team seem to be>veterans>knife zealots
>>507792451Eventually you have to start figuring out how to run and jump, after you've learned to walked.Sometimes these people however overestimate themselves, I did that when I first tried damnation and then later auric damnation and even later auric maelstrom.Sometimes you just have to eat shit to learn and to get better.
>>507770007two really big ones for me are:1. Learn to move and fight at the same time, this one is just practice really but not getting stuck in place fighting stuff can stop things getting worse. I dont necessarily mean progress either, could be "my teammate is down across the room so i gotta fight my way over there"2. The INSTANT someone goes down or gets disabled, drop what you're doing and help them, or make plans to help them soonish. I find these sorts of games go wrong much less when you play like this.
>>507796020both these points are great and two things that I usually use to determine the skill of people I'm playing withanother big one is knowing at what pace to move through the level, but this comes with experience
>>507784329Cool, I'll just hope the overall community and randoms are nearly as good and talented as they are in DRG and Helldivers 2, it'll be alot to live up to but one can hope :)
>>507784329>where we complain about darktide and the fact that our teammates who we don't talk to aren't able to read our minds and play perfectly.You shouldn't have to tell people how to play at the top difficulties, they should know how to already and be able to at least carry their own weight. If someone has to spend their whole game trying to tell someone else how they should be playing then they don't belong in that difficulty.
>>507793309Practice. These games are mainly played by a relatively small but loyal population of turboautists in a similar way to souls games; it takes a bit of time investment to get good at what the game asks you to do, but it's essentially all combinatorial pattern recognition and very learnable. Once you've learned it it feels good to do something easily that used to feel impossible, and even better to do it in clutch situations when your hogtied teammates are watching you succeed where they failed.
I am confused about the Horde clear combo for the RB Mk.X. I was told it was L1, L2, H1, H2 but whenever I try this the next attack is a thrust. I tried block cancelling but blocking causes the next attack to also be a thrust like the PS's does. What am I missing here?
>>507795806Bad vets will die a lot because they don't have zealot failsafes, but a good vet is very valuable
>>507798490It's still light, light and then nothing but heavy attacks
>>507797705>but it's essentially all combinatorial pattern recognitionthis is the best way I've seen tide games described and why you either have it down, or you don't
>>507798802Oh, so only two lights to start the combo and then pure heavies? No restarting back to lights, just spamming.
>>507798913Yes
>>507799018Got it, thanks. I was told L1, L2, H1, H2 but there was no mention to just keep doing heavies so I assumed they meant go back to lights and I was just doing something wrong.
>>507799573What a faggot. Hope he dies
>>507797705>combinatorial pattern recognitionlol whatever nerd
>>507799573You can also rotate between light and heavy in the infinite, I think with the right side attack being the heavy and the left side swing being a light. It can help when the horde is getting dense to prevent them from knocking you out of your infinite loop.
>>507786816In all likelihood havoc will undergo a series of balance changes to make it easier because the vast majority of players start struggling around 25 and anecdotally the vast majority of the console population is hardstuck in the 20s
>>507786214nta but you can disable the cooldown built into the mod and add more lines of code to match each voice line you want to add. The dude who made for the emperor though hard coded the radial wheel and i can't be assed to fix it so i just attached mine to keybindings>>507786356I like it quite a bit, the decay and deranking on failure to add CONSQEUNCES feels like shit though. Especially when you derank for helping other players out. I enjoy havoc 30+ but I got deranked super hard by just joining low tier havocs for the hats
>tfw I can't decide what class to play in DarktideIt doesn't help that class-specific weapons aren't available right off the bat either. Psyker seems fun, but the force sword I got seemed kinda bad at managing the frequent large groups of mooks, brain blast charging feels like an eternity (though nuking specials is nice), and I haven't found a staff yet. Zealot also seemed nice, but I was having trouble finding the right times to use the dash/melee ability, grenade controls feel wonky in a way, and I haven't seen either the flamer or eviscerator weapons.
>>507783642they fixed naked too btw, unless you had a character that was already naked and turn on your mods autistically before each login you will lose it and be reverted to rags>>507784878I kinda get why they gatekept it, soon as I spread it through here and a few other places it got fixed, chunky fish should at least give us shirtless as an actual option since half the tattoos are useless without it but apparently GW are bitches and said no. I just wanna see my ink
kind of sad that havoc was supposed to be the game's equivalent to chaos wastes. I can see it going into life-support next year. maybe we'll eventually get a versus mode no one wants.
>>507805860They fixed the PUBLIC leaks since there are 6 variations that all work on slightly different functions, there are still naked versions out there that work but are heavily gatekept.t. still see the obnoxious retards with colored chats.
>>507806071are you sure they still work and they aren't just people maintaining their outfits? I can probably figure it out again if it's possible. I don't think colored text was ever fixed or even an issue for chunkyfish
>>507805951versus would actually work in darktide unlike ratclickalso nobody ever said havoc was supposed to be wastesit's already better just by not having the aids roguelike weapon upgrades you focus entirely on the input gameplay
>>507805698ZealotCombat axe with brutal momentumVraks infantry autogunFire grenades^^Start doing this^^
>>507806239>colored textI mean you can still throw TECHNICALLY custom text via For The Emperor!, because the Yes/No macro is localized, pulls the localization from the file, to where I sometimes see people throw "Дa", and that text is colored, too. If nothing else, you can absolutely abuse that portion of the system, and fagshart is incompetent, so there's probably a dozen more ways.
>>507805091This. The console plebs will force them to make it easier.
>>507805951>kind of sad that havoc was supposed to be the game's equivalent to chaos wastes.No, it isn't.Havoc is legit just Winds of Magic: 40k edition.
>>507806264>versus would actually work in darktideIt'd be even more cancerous.And I can already tell that if darktide ever gets a versus mode, then ogryns will geg completely shafted in it and no one will use them because they are bad.
>want to play havoc>not a single fucking game listed>host my own>not a single application for over 15 minutes except for a single clearance 15 psyker.
>>507807254What is your local time when you've done it?I've noticed that there is much more havoc lobbies during evening hours where I live.Which makes sense because most people are working during the day and not playing video games.
>>507807254weeb btfo
>>507807254>be bad>nobody wants to play with youit do be like that
>>507806873Don’t get me wrong I’ve actually run into a few console players at 40 that I can only assume were using mkb and deserved their clears. Some of them though, especially some True Survivors got carried by god squads on pure luck. They have no business in maelstroms let alone high havocs. Whoever carried them deserves a drink
i need a mod to rename my block list to the scripture of shamethe only creatures that make it on there are people who do nothing but repeatedly die in my auric lobbies

>>507795806I used to think like this until I tried knife with uncanny+crit bleed+blazing piety and started outperforming even duelling sword fags while also being fast enough to kite hordes and clutch even 30+ havocs.
Why does Ratclick have a workshop while Poxclick doesn't?
>>507808397Just carry them and clutch shitter. Auric after Havoc feels so easy these days it's not even funny, last auric maelstrom I did felt like a literal cakewalk compared to the shit havoc throws at you.
>>507808397I've blocked one guy my entire thousand hours of playing. How many people are you blocking and why
>>507810937>Just carry themyou would like to be carried wouldn't you?
>>507810672Isn’t it because fatshark didn’t set up the mod framework for dorktide and never had plans to?

Alright, so we can safely assume that at this point Fatshark's design ethos concerning Ogryn weapons is thus: >Iconic weapons (Ripper, Slab Shield, Grenade Gauntlet)>Canon Weapons >Impromptu Weapons With range weapons they are rapidly approaching a point of tapping out of options that aren't the Heavy Bolter, Autocannon, or Multi-Laser (basically a giant lasgattling gun) under Canon range weapons. Melee weapons are in a worse position because Ogryn doesn't really have any iconic or canon weapons left that they haven't already put in the game. Hence why they keep using impromptu weapons.Per one of the more mouthy people who work closely with Fatshark and are under NDA but don't work at Fatshark, GW has to approve every single thing Fatshark wants to do. For whatever reason GW is anal about this game, to point that this person has repeatedly bitched about how much meddling GW does. They, apparently, run a lot of interference with the Ogryn for some reason. Why? No one knows.I think I found the list that Fatshark had been pulling from for a while now to try and get GW to approve weapons for the Ogryn. BNow the Heavy Stubber is just a regular version of the Twin-Link and since every Twin-Link weapon has a non-twin link it makes sense they got that through. See the attached image. If you look carefully, you'll see a lot of weapons we have already from the melee side but not the range side. There could be various reasons for this, but I think that they are going to continue to plunder this data sheet from Necromunda for the Ogryn. Except for Range Weapons. Why? Well, because there is only one on here: the Storm Welder and it's a close range weapon. Think shorter ranger than the Flamer. Now, perhaps this is how they could give the Ogryn a Heavy Flamer analogue but that's it. Everything else on here is melee range, and since they keep doing this utilitarian, impromptu melee weapon schtick with the Ogryn I suspect we will continue to see them pull from here.
>>507810672Fatshark wanted to support modding in VT2, but it turned out that modding is better if Fatshark doesn't support it, because DT and VT1 modding is better. "Sanctioning" which Fatshark never did turned out to be a terrible curse

>>507812090>>507812668I made chatGPT summarize it.>The person feels Fatshark is running out of weapon ideas for Ogryn, frustrated by strict GW oversight, and expects more impromptu melee weapons due to limited options.
>>507811013I've blocked 2 people in total. One speedrunning knife zealot in 2023And one a few days ago for leaving havoc 40 mid game, because apparently his only reason for being there was getting True Survivor. But he didn't tell anyone before the first person was downed.
they can easily fix the Ogryn problem by giving it a Melta Gun>b-but muh lorethe thunder hammer is already in the game.
>>507814284Melta is a Veteran weapon. It's always been a Veteran weapon.
>>507812090I'm not even sure why Fatshark wanted to add Ogryn, since they don't seem to want an actual ogryn to be playable. It has gotten less ogryny over time.
>>507814284i think they can fix most problems by un-doing previous nerfs (folding shovels, FNP...), and handing out specific damage buffs to specific weapons. We can get pretty far by tweaking some values. But eventually i hope we get a better ogryn tree that allows for more freedom of choice.
>>507814404>my main should get all the cool toys
>>507815213don't be silly
>>507814404what about a heavy melta rifle? it's too big for regular veterans.
>>507815213I don't play Vet, I am just going off the weapon insignia and the clear bias that FS has towards Vet due to the playerbase.
>>507815213Why not, vet is in such a terrible state>worthless tree>no good uniques>literally zero reason to play vet, who is the weakest at killing mixed hordes >worthless keystones>shitty meleeVet has literally fucking NOTHING.
today's gift tomorrow's gonna be saltzpyre feet skin>>507816108the hellbore
>>507816108The funny thing is, some Vet players legit believe this. Which is why it's getting a second rebuild in January, lmao. I also wouldn't be surprised if it got at least two weapons as well.
>>507816223guess it's the class that sells the most slop
>>507812090I just want a power maul rework. I liked the idea of the heat gauge system that relic sword has
>>507816108i know man it sucks. Vet doesn't even have plasma gun, power sword, infinite grenades, best aura, and the best F in the game.Oh wait...
>>507816315It goes Vet > Ogryn > Zealot > Psyker. Ogryn's are the biggest pigs per player, but there are more Vets. Ogryn is the least played class, and Psykers don't bother buying things. Zealots are the second most played class but their gear is so shit looking that no one spends money on it.
>>507816818so why ogryn is hated by FS, or at least FS accepts to nerf the gryn by listening to jewtubers
>>507816947Because he is very hard to design for, GW interferes with him the most, and he's the least played class.
>>507817178so GW asked them to nerf his rending and toughness regen?
>>507817275No, the playtesters did. Including, paradoxically, Ogryn playtesters. I am not making this up. There is a thread on Reddit about this that I found last week. In the thread that this cap is from, you will find people saying that they know Ogryn playtesters who support and asked for the nerfs, while you got this retard saying he's proud that Ogryn isn't as shitty as Fatshark wanted to make him.
>>507817479second reply best reply, testerslaves are a blight
>>507817479I love how the tester acts mighty while working for free
>>507817587His entire reply is very funny, or it would be if it didn't actually make playing the Ogryn so terrible but it sheds light into how Fatshark operates. Like, he is literally saying that Fatshark wanted to make the weapons UNUSABLE and they had to be talked into not doing that. That's how retarded they are.
>>507817969source : him nerfing ogryn
Reminder that it seriously feels like ogryn is balanced around malice, because that's the only way nerfing it makes sense. Ogryn is crazy fucking strong in malice. Assume players retarded enough to melee pox bursters, that ogryn just shrugs off because he's too retarded. That's borderline overpowered if you think in malice terms.You fags aren't average or remotely normal players. The fact that copeg even discusses the effectivenes of things, and that you might accidentally absorb some of that information through osmosis, already makes you a freak. The avearge retard just bumbles through the game without activating a single brain cell.>ogryn skill treeJust look at it. As long as you get to the bottom, you can't fuck up, because all the nodes are equally shit.
>>507818070Right but he defends the nerfs by saying that Fatshark wanted to make the weapons non-functional in actual gameplay. He's defending himself in one sentence by saying, "Well, tch, if it wasn't for ME our weapons wouldn't work at all!" And then in the next going, "Yeah, sure, maybe I did shit all over the class with nerfs but that's okay."The Chapelle Show Rick James bit.
>>507818309All of FatShark's playtesters for DT are super sweats. They aren't malice shitters/console plebs. Just ask around. You can't get in unless you have like 3k hours played and can solo Auric Maelstrom easily.
>>507817479>those changes were my influence personallythis man bottles his farts
>>507818332oh right so we do agree
>>507818465explain the ogryn players living their class instead of roleplaying then
>>507818465>playtestersOkay, and? A playtester suggests a thing, resident fagshart malicelet in charge of balancing looks at it, maybe plays around it for like 20 minutes in malice, and deems it extremely overpowered because that's what it ultimately is. In the hands of a controller wielding retarded gamer dad on TV speakers playing malice, ogryn is insanely overpowered compared to the other classes. And that's before factoring in that it's a lazy sw*de.
>>507818730You'd have to read the thread. The playtesters consistently shout at Fatshark to nerf the Ogryn, so Fatshark nerfs the Ogryn. They are literally just doing what the sweats tell them to do.
>>507818665What?
>>507818876I've monitored the thread, and I just find it incredibly hard to believe. Maybe I'm coping. Nobody with half a brain would unironically think ogryn is too overpowered.REGARDLESS of whether ogryn needs nerfs or buffs, it needs a skill tree and blessing rework. Hell, even animation rework on some weapons, the shield is a fucking joke. The class is in such a boring state.Why aren't they pushing for a proper fucking rework?
I'm so tired of having maybe one other decent player other than myself and two complete deadweights every game
>>507819385Time to play havoc, chuddie
>>507812090they can just do the mining equipment that genestealer cultist use, we already use the pick, give us the drill, make it like the relic blade, lights and heavies are jabs, but powered heavies are just drilling people and it overheats
>>507819457>he thinks havoc isn't full of shitters hoping for a carrylollmao
>>507819892>thinksI've played plenty of havoc 40s with randoms that were all competent players. Sounds like a skill issue if you can't get there.
>>507819103I have a working theory about why this is. >Ogryn roleplayers The roleplayers, and the people who view the Ogryn as a meme class in some capacity think that it should stay that way. Stiff upper lip, for da emprah, save da lil uns. When you complain about the class being shitty you are basically stepping all over their "fun" by making the class "sweaty" instead of casual. >TimeOne person in that thread pointed out a pretty big problem with the Ogryn isn't simply the skill tree. It's the weapons wholesale. He pointed out that the Ogryn has a lot of melee weapons where half the blessings do nothing because they're shit like Crit Chance or Toughness%. Who the fuck would ever put Crit Chance Blessings on weapons with the lowest critical chance rate in the entire game? AND we have no way to increase the passive crit chance in the tree. >Captive Authority The people who have the most sway with the Ogryn are Fatshark dicksuckers. That guy I posted in that screenshot is exactly what I mean. He is defending nerfing the Ogryn while at the same time is one of the guys who makes the most comprehensive guide for the Ogryn that every retard swears by and utilizes. And those same dudes don't criticize Fatshark or discuss that the Ogryn needs fixing because they don't think it does, or rather they are afraid to rock the boat since it might make Fatshark angry at them. >It's not that serious bro. People don't think the Ogryn needs buffs because it's just a video game and play on Malice AND they only play a few hours a month, so they aren't exposed to the problems with the class. >Population Ogryn is the least played class. Given the time investment it would take to properly fix the class (weapons, animations, base stats, skill tree) it isn't worth doing since it won't meaningfully increase their playerbase.
>>507819953>he thinks havoc isn't full of shitters hoping for a carrylollmao
>>507819990>Given the time investment it would take to properly fix the class (weapons, animations, base stats, skill tree) it isn't worth doing since it won't meaningfully increase their playerbase.>weaponsLiterally just rip out the blessings that literally don't function correctly, add in a couple new ones that do, and make sure they're not fucking worthless.>base statsDoesn't require much testing. Adjust in small increments and see how that improves play, it's not that hard. Giving ogryn +10 base toughness won't break the balance, but might help the class to feel better.>skill treeThis is one of the few things that might require actual work, but even just adding horizontal pathing and like +10 nodes in-between and buffing the literally useless ones into forcing you to make tangible decisions can't be that much work.The psyker tree is the most well-designed in the entire game. Get the guy who designed that on ogryn.>animationsLikely the most amount of work if you have any standards, sure. This isn't strictly needed to fix the class.I won't claim to be a god-tier designer, but I could definitely design something good, that is derivative of ogryn's current skill tree, doesn't require exorbitant man hours to implement, and is infinitely better than the dogshit we currently have. In a day or two, on my own. Without factoring in ideas and inspirations from testers or the player base.Shit I could probably code half the blessings myself and do all of the testing. The game has an established framework, so all of the ACTUALLY HARD shit is already finished. Someone mentioned earlier that NPC ogryn already have trample, why not just port that to player ogryn? It's not like I would have to implement new mechanics.And neither do fatshark.Time investment is a non-argument. They're just lazy.
>>507821139I am not defending any of it. It is absolutely just Fatshark being lazy, not wanting to work on the class, and more importantly, not wanting to work on DT.
>>507819060i'm calling them stoopid
>>507816164>second hat for Dorf without giving him body cosmetic firstWtf>>507811013>>507814214I distinctly remember all people I blockedOne was xbox shitter with those awful Commissar cosmetics. He had mic open all the fucking time and you could hear him breathe and sigh. He tried to larp as a said Commissar, calling us his soldiers and that we are doing good job. He was going down constantly, in every single fucking fight, sometimes few times somehow. He was shooting poxwalkers point blank with his Revolver (bolt pistol didn't exist then). I never saw him use melee. Entire experience was so embarrassing that it will be forever etched into my mind. Block is probably wasted on him since it's unlikely he continued to play this game, but he will be on it just in case.Another happened recently. Some autist was constantly spamming ping. I think he had ping on a left click button. When we told him to stop he said no and became passive aggressive. Immediately after he triggered daemonhost. We didn't even attempt to save him, just looked at him. You could tell he got embarrassed and then he said that fine he won't spam ping anymore lolThird was some shitter smigger who was going down constantly on Hab Dreyko. Every time he did, he spammed ping at his location. At the end he didn't drop to the tree for whatever reason, instead stayed above on point of no return. He got downed there obviously and kept spamming ping anyway. We told him to shut the fuck and stop spamming because we can't pick him up there anyway and it's his fault for not dropping. He continued to spam ping anyway. Geniue animal, I never saw more worthless player, he had to be legitimately retarded. We didn't bother to pick him up anymore.Others are not interesting enough to mention, but most are some autists with thousands of true level on their characters. Almost always they are spergs or act weird.
>"auric storm survivor" vet>gets downed by himself two 2-3 maulers>clear mobs>pick him up>gets downed 20s later when a medicae station is 30m awayhehe
The good Ogryns I see are really good. Usually level 1000+ and are constantly aggressive with their melee and only shooting if necessary. Usually top damage. But for every one of these Ogryns, I get hundreds of roleplaying comic relief Ogryns that are dead weight burdens that I have to carry through fire.
>>507817479>>507818332I read it more as >I presented Fatshark with indepth reviews about which parts of Ogryn need buffing, which parts need reworking, and which parts need nerfing>Fatshark opts to do only the nerf part because its the lowest effortmust be frustrating to be a tide playtester with a brain

>>507819103the part where they think heavy spam is the best build is really telling, honestly is not very good, because his melee weapons are kinda slowgunlugger is unironically his best build>>507824847genestealers being in the game has no bearing on whether generic equipment found on any hive planet being available to ogryn
>>507817479did this guy seriously take credit for the kickback buffs? Everyone in the world could tell it needed buffs.
>>507825258Heavy spam is the best build, the only real problem with it is that ogryn heavy 1 already does so much damage that its very rarely ever worth it to actually buff it further. Ogryn's main problem is a heavy reliance on h1 since not a single other fucking melee attack in the entire fucking game is worth using over block canceling and using heavy 1 on ogryn for damn nearly any weapon.
>>507825258>the part where they think heavy spam is the best build is really telling,Meds. I've never once mentioned that. When I play ogryn, I almost exclusively play gunlugger.It's also completely unplayable in havoc due to the ammo penalty, soooooo
>>507793309It’s the autist game mode dude. You’ll get there if you really want it but yeah it has a very niche appeal for said artists>>507797705You’re exaggerating but mostly right
>>507812090>>507824847Games Workshop is incredibly controlling with their IP. Which would be less of a problem if they had people who actually understood their own IP controlling the decision making. What it looks like to me from the outside isn't "anything in lore goes" its "anything actually on a model can be used"I'll give you a perfect example: The lucius lasgun clearly has a spot for optics. But there are no table top models with optics on the lucius lasgun. So despite it being literally piss easy to do with weapon customization, which is just scraped together from pre-existing systems FS already made, we still don't have optics 2 years in.
>>507818309Ogryn is crazy strong in auric too. He only falls off in havoc.
>>507825258>>507825461>I thought anon said "you"never mind apparently I need to take my meds. I'm retarded.
>>507788687You don’t need it faggot cope harder
>>507825624you forgot your BONE 'ED, bonehead
>>507825561He's still decent in havoc if you have very good players. But a lot of players don't have the skills. Its literally the exact same issue as when Auric first released. Everyone was screaming about ogryn being fat and useless in Aurics because shooters were too scary and now everyone just holds W and kills everything. Havoc is way harder than Auric for sure but I've seen ogryns do no-downs runs without any piss toughness so its clearly possible.
>>507817479Jesus fucking christ, man.>ogryn playstyle is too boring and one note>we better nerf the only good playstyle into the fucking dirt because of a rework that might never even fucking happen in the firstplace>"this is good thing btw :)"I want all ogryn playtesters to be hanged.
>>507788716u don’t understand the gold piss bubble spam is actually fun!!!!
>>507825548>What it looks like to me from the outside isn't "anything in lore goes" its "anything actually on a model can be used"Doesn't apply to Ogryn. There isn't a single case of an Ogryn model using a Heavy Stubber or Twin-Link one for that matter. The Warrior Priest situation that Fatshark aired out for VT2 doesn't adhere to what's going on with the Ogryn in the slightest. You won't find an Ogryn model with a pickaxe, it doesn't exist, but we have one. It's lots of shit like this.
>>507824251This is how I play ogryn. The problem with ogryn though is when everyone else eats shit it's a lot harder to clutch with than zealot or vet with their invisible bullshit.
>>507793309You quickly get used to it. Use good weapons, stay with team, respect enemies and create distance, you'll find them boring in no time. HISTG is the hardest mod. You have to remember it's the "special diarrhea" mod, which means the director just constantly shits out specials, no matter what you do, so there are no downtimes or moments of rest that you get in regular. Just keep moving and push forward, that's really it. Once you beat Auric HISTG, everything else is baby easy.
>>507789073>It would be 100% perfectno, it wouldn’t man you tards are pathetic
>>507825258>the part where they think heavy spam is the best build is really telling, honestly is not very good, because his melee weapons are kinda slow>gunlugger is unironically his best buildWhat the fuck are you talking about?Gunlugger is good if you suck ass because you will still do decent damage, but melee is far, far stronger if you are a good player

>>507826005You're a faggot niggoid.
>>507789751Nah, the lag is something relatively recent. As in the past two/three weeks. I’m almost sure it has something to do with the update but I can’t prove that obviously.
>>507825918No one plays stealth vet in Havoc. You play VoC Vet and that struggles to clutch as much as Ogryn does. Psyker also struggles to clutch but he's still Meta. Ogryn does have SOME clutch tools depending on the situation. A large health pool and damage reduction and ability to never get staggered out of a rez can let him exchange health for a rez which can save runs. Indomitable also lets him move fast and run through infinite mass and knock it all over to buy time for a rez. But god save you if there's a few dogs or trappers around because your dodges are fucking ass.
>>507826026what part of>because his melee weapons are kinda sloweveryone else will kill things fastergunlugger is good because it negates on the main problems with ogryn, your ass gets shot into oblivion constantly

>>507805398Get new images
>>507826709>corpse dragging shitters that can't hold WLet me guess, high 20s?
>>507825918This is fine. Zealots have survivability and mobility, that is the whole point of their class. Ogryns should be greatly beating them in damage (unless they are abusing flamer, which is just OP). I don't expect Ogryns to "clutch", flank, assassinate, revive/rescue cheese, loot, or be the objective bitch, the Zealots can do that crap. I expect Ogryns to be the immediate frontliner of the team who disrupts the enemies. For example, a huge ball of death that is a crusher/mauler pack coming right for us with no room... Zealots will usually just pick at it and pray Until Death is up, Psykers will boom themselves, Vets go down. If an Ogryn is there, he can just send them all to the ground and then rape them with his gorillion pickaxe damage. That is a very powerful and unique ability among all the classes, yet most Ogryns don't understand that.
>>507826550>ogryn is the only class without some form of ranged immunitywell there's the slab shield, but it doesn't exactly offer much build variety.
>>507807254>want to play havocIt always comes back to this.
>>50782681834
>>507826521My average damage in aurics as a melee ogryn is 790k which is just a bit less than my zealot average. If you are good then you'll be killing most things faster than most players. A duelling saber will kill an individual enemy or a crusher faster, but a pickaxe will cleave through groups of enemies and kill them faster while also having massively higher horde clear than a duelling saberUnless you are in high havocs, then an ogryn is about equal to a zealot
>>507826550>ogryn and zealot have the lowest toughnessThat's putting it mildly.Current baseline toughness stats for each class are>veteran 100 toughness>psyker 75 toughness>zealot 70 toughness>ogryn 50 toughness.Just by looking at this you can see the problems the entire class has by design."We want a tank class in our game. We better the said tank class the least amount of toughness because that makes fucking sense."
This is asking a lot but I wish the slab shield could be paired with different weapons.
>>507826550>>507827272>ogryn>lowest toughnessSomewhat disingenuous because ogryn easily breaks 200 toughness with a good build, on top of 300 base health.
>>507808397I mean, does blocking even do anything? I’ve seen and heard people be put together in games with people they’ve blocked. Seems like your wasting your time if so>>507811013This. Can’t imagine running into people who offend me in some way constantly that I need to go out of my way to add them to a list
>>507827424Shield and pickaxe
just got darktide. when do I get to fight space marines?
>>507826883What you described is exactly how I play ogryn. When I get a good team its a walk in the park but if I get a team that don't know how to position and play their part correctly it just falls apart.
>>507810376This. I understand why a lot of them have their reputation but if you play well and actually do your job it’s like the most satisfying thing ever and you mow down everything too.
>>507827272it probably made sense back in 2022 for regular damnation, before they nerfed his toughness regen nodes. I also remember FNP making me damn near immortal before that was nerfed as well. I don't know why fatshark hates ogryn toughness.
>>507827459>Somewhat disingenuous because ogryn easily breaks 200 toughness with a good buildOnly if you min max the tree and take both +25 toughness nodes and specifically run at least 2 toughness curios.And even then you have to put 5% toughness on all curios still.
>>507826921The block angle is also very narrow
>>507814284>the thunder hammer is already in the game.… Yes? And? What does “lore” have to do with that
>>507827459it's only disingenuous if you assume we're not talking about havoc at all
>>507818475funny, I was going to say the same thing. lots of similarities here
>>507827459Yeah but consider that every other class can just refill the toughness bar at will. Ogryn can only do that with an enemy near.The purpose of the toughness bar on Ogryn is near exclusively to keep him afloat until he gets to the next enemy so he can continue generating toughness. This concept dies when you nerf his max toughness then buff shooters. He will now never get to the next enemy and his class concept is trash now.I'm personally just apalled that they nerfed these stats for havoc, but not gold toughness. I mean bro its called the emperors dying light. Why is CDR and gold toughness not affected?
>>507825258>genestealers being in the game has no bearing on whether generic equipment found on any hive planet being available to ogrynI thought you were suggesting it be called “genestealer X” as well, in which case that would make no sense to a lot of people without context, but yeah obviously if you’re just going to name it “generic power drill” then there’s no issue
>>507828159>Ogryn can only do that with an enemy near.>being disingenuous againTop right brace node. I constantly brace my weapon just for toughness regen, regardless of ranged or melee build. Lets you wade through fire and tox clouds with 1-2 bomber resists.I still agree with you btw.
>>507827646Yep. Ogryn is honestly kinda busted if he knows what he's doing and has a team. No amount of enemy slop can suffocate your team while you're alive. Your teammates just have to keep most trappers and dogs off you, which isn't much to ask. Helps a lot if you have an assassin Zealot or really good Vet.
>>507828159>Ogryn can only do that with an enemy near.You can pick the toughness when aiming node and it will fill your toughness faster than the description suggests. Obviously you won't be mobile when using it and it probably won't save you in havocs
>>507816108helmet baby post
>>507827564Make it into a power pickaxes and I'll take it.
ogryn should be able to dual wield pickaxes
>>507816108lolwut? Veteran is the strongest class, hands down. He has the best ability in the game, best tree in the game that has so many good nodes your biggest problem is deciding between them, most damage (ranged and melee, even beating out Ogryn), most versatility, and strong at all ranges and against all enemies.
>>507828702>melee, even beating out OgrynI don't know about that, but they are somehow the best duelling sword users
>Threads dead for days>Wake up>All these postsWere you all busy satisfying your uncle for the holidays and he wouldn’t let you in the compootah until he finished or something?
>>507828823Vet has the best melee nodes for melee damage in the game, and now with Dueling Sword, I don't think anyone can beat his melee dps except a full Martyrdom Zealot with Dueling Sword.
>>507828903yes we have families
>>507828702>most damage (ranged and melee)does Psyker not have the highest ranged dps in the game? I thought that was the point of Psyker. Left click Shock Staff build?
>>507828972They are also excellent at running into melee if you use start the encounter with grenades and use the shout to keep you safe
>>507825548>>507825917Sounds like it’s just inconsistent lawyerkikery then. Not unheard of but GW takes it a level I can’t really recall seeing anywhere else. Very weird
>>507829121psyker has most ranged aoe dps veteran has most ranged single target dps
>>507829189they did this shit with total war
>>507826170Mad because he’s right.
Psyker has the best dps and mobility overall
>>507826709>havocdidn’t read
>>507829451Zealot has fucking stupid mobility. Gun Psyker has good mobility, but definitely not the best in the game or anything near "Zealot crack addict". I think Psyker, on paper, has the highest overall dps in the game, but there needs to be groups of enemies and the right conditions.
>decide to host havoc for a change>two faggots immediately leave before even getting through the first area because they both went downme and the other guy still made it surprisingly far with just the two of usno join in progress seems batshit
>>507827424It’s not really. It should be entirely possible, especially taking into account. But it’s not because…???
>>507829451his mobility is extremely build dependent. Default psyker is the slowest class.
>>507828345thats not somethibg you do in the situation i described you dishonest faggot. I explicitly said it needs to cross the gap to the next enemy. You arent bracing your gun while melee engaging. Bubble, chorus, fotf, voc all come out while melee engaging.
>>507828903tidesisters came back we're thriving now that we're united once more :)
>>507799573You didn't think for a moment to try doing another heavy when restarting the combo didn't make sense? Would've taken you one second, but you thought it was easier to post a question here. Holy fucking shit, anon. Does mommy still wipe your ass for you?
>>507829925>You arent bracing your gun while melee engaging.But you are? You just hold your ranged weapon at all times and brace while sliding everywhere. It's autistic amounts of APM but that's the best way to play whenever there isn't a random straggler nearby that needs shoving.If you don't consider that to be valid, that's fair, but>chorusis an even worse argument. You gap close with chorus the same way ogryn does while bracing. You don't melee during.
>>507829189GW has like 20 people making these decisions independently and theyre not on the same page
>>507830038>Does mommy still wipe your ass for you?No, YOUR mommy does
>>507829871It's a lot of coding.
>>507830136Nah you dont do that shit on havoc the brace regen isnt enough to stop even just one or two shooters from raping you. It's good for getting a bit more shooter facetime and regen when hiding but otherwise no. I am beginning to doubt you even play
>>507828903this general has some of the most retarded fluctuations in activity ive ever seen on this site, there’s really no predicting it
I have severe autism.
>>507828383People really do just underestimate him. Even in this thread there's all this coping and seething from people who can't play him into havoc 40. The problem with Ogryn is how much he goes from unkillable god to literal fucking corpse if he misplays even once. But his misplays aren't the same as other classes either. Your psyker will fucking die if he eats a single crusher overhead, but Ogryn can eat one on H40 and live. But the Ogryn will get trapped or dogged at the start or end of his dodge so if he ever misses a single specialist queue and doesn't have a push or gun ready he's fucking dead. He's not as weak into shooters as everyone whines about, and its funny because your average comp has so much chorus/bubble/shout going on that they could easily bring an Ogryn and even benefit from it but no one wants to.
>>507830354>on havocI don't play ogryn in havoc because I'm not a griefer.
>>507829451>>507829921Isn’t it technically the fastest class with the right talents but only for a brief amount of time whereas Zealot is consistently faster?
>>507830354>while slidingI mean I don't agree with braced sliding being valuable either but shooters in Havoc can't hit you when sliding any more than they can in Auric, bud.
>>507830443Based
>>507830443He's based?
I regularly have hot creampie sex with 10/10 babes.
>>507830590Two things can be true at the same time. Yes ogryn is noticeably weaker than the other 3 classes in havoc. Yes ogryn can still beat havoc.
>>507830906this this this so much this!!!!!!
I eat mauler overheads like they're going out of a fashion.
>>507830752>while slidingdoes not matter on havoc man. Ogryn slides genuinely dont matter a lot with their speed and volley length
>>507830695Something like that. But that's only if you invest in ALL the mobility talents.
>>507831257Real
>>507830906Thanks for sharing, Smigger chan.
>>507830752>but shooters in Havoc can't hit you when sliding any more than they can in Auric, bud.Once again confirming you dont play havoc. They get higher firerates and shoot more shots per salvo, which means you get hit WAY more while slide spamming. I'm curious why people who dont play it have the need to act like they do.
anyone remember the redshell fiasco for vt2? well I just found out one of the trusted alpha testers for fatsharks works at redshell
Havoc is just a terrible made game mode from the ground up.The lobby system is terrible and if/when people get downed and ragequit you have no replacements to join.The modifiers are boring as hell and detrimental to the fun of the game at best (measly ammo pick-ups / HP bloat / shooters on steroid laced crack).
>>507832595i think the modifiers are great actually
>>507832840How?The only thing I've found so far that I thought was kind of neat was the end of level bosses appearing alongside other boss spawns.Aside from that it's just more low effort slop modifiers.
>>507828345>Top right brace nodeYou only use this if you're a lugger, which is a worse build over all for ogryn. And specifically a build that no one wants in havoc how bad it works there.
>>507832840the only ones I like in Havoc are 21st hordes and the captain showing up. Everything else is gay and/or boring and I'd prefer the auric mods
>>507833395Nah you can totally get it on melee builds and it works fine for situations where you need your toughness back quick, but it doesn't let you actually engage shooters/gunners any more safely outside of taking potshots with a heavy stubber, so I don't know why anon brought it up like it lets you approach ranged enemies
>bolter>stubbers>knife
>>507832530You already posted this last week
>>507833685>Nah you can totally get it on melee buildsYes, and it is still useless and only decent on gunlugger. Which is a useless build in havocs.99% of the time melee ogryns use either kickback or rippers as their ranged, and both of these guns are chosen because they don't need to be braced to use them effectively.Steady grip is a dead node on melee ogryn and you're a dumbass for picking it. Especially when you consider that it effectively costs 2 points because you are forced to go through towering presence, which is useless, to get it
>>507832840The blight spreads is genuinely dogshit. It punishes you simply for playing the game
>>507831469>>507831308You know you can hold slide for a long time right? I literally have slid into dreg shooters (longest fire time) with Ogryn and slapped his face. You can survive a few tickle hits from the odd shooter as Ogryn without breaking toughness. I like that you accuse me of not playing H40 on ogryn when I clear H40 on ogry regularly. I'm not saying he's the best class I'm just saying you're wrong about handling shooters.
I clear H40 regularly with no talents and base rarity weaponry, you're all dogshit
I clear H40 level 1 with the starting weapons, you're all dogshit
I haven't done H40 yet
>>507837632not possible dipshit, you have to be level 30 and do a maelstrom
I clear H42 regularly and I can say for absolute certain that all the classes are poopoopeepee except for auditor general.
I clear H1 with lvl 500 weapons and 630 real level
I clear H20 regularly and can now tie my own shoe laces.
>>507835092it specifically works good on the heavy stubbers and it lets you sometimes shoot at shooters like a vet would, even on a melee build. I wouldn't say it's useless, it's just a very specific benefit
>heavy stubberWOOP WOOPITS THE SOUND OF THE SHITTER
>>507839137If you are frequently getting point blank trapped just because aren't using the fastest gun on your melee ogryn then you are a shitter
>>507839361its okay heavy shittergrynwe all expected nothing of you the moment we seen your loadoutwe'll pick you up at the next revive pointpeace
GENUINE skill issue.
YaaaawnIs anyon else absolutely bored by retards like >>507839543?I'm been reading the HB1 arguments online and his type is very similar to the seething indian side

You talking about the single stubbers? They are good, just don't be stupid and let trappers get too close
>>507840318But he's right
>>507840408>not havoc
>>507840408Damn look at all of those useless fucking tracker bloat

Does this game run well for you all? That anon gave a good tip about setting fullscreen in the .ini , anyone else know how to get around CPU bottleneck?

>>507840408>another farmed scoreboardMario, it's been almost 2 years. It's time to stop.
>>507840408I can already tell based on this image that you played with console shitters who are bad at the game.And you played on auric heresy at best.
>>507841468>farmedYou think i was killing my teammates for a bigger score?>>507841472Nobody plays anything under auric damnation here and that includes me and beating a mission with console shitters is actually harder than doing so with a good team
>>507841818Yes, I've played with you before and you barely cracked 500k on an Auric Maelstrom. You are genuinely not good unless you're allowed to sit there and farm, which, as pictures like this show: you did because your shitter teammates died over and over and you just sat there killing the endless hordes the director sent. This isn't hard. On my old computer I had a game where I did 4 million damage just by standing there and using KeepSwinging.
>>507842132>Yes, I've played with you before and you barely cracked 500k on an Auric MaelstromWe have never, ever played together before. I am attaching an identity to my opinion because it's more credible and honest that way and it proves that i at least have some degree of skill and experience to back up my opinons. I would prefer it if we discussed the value of the single stubbers rather than engage in this dishonest bullshit
