Darktide got more Community Managers than updates
>>539033676Let that sink in
>wake up>check /coopg/>realise the pets blog was real and not a fever dreamWhat the fuck were they thinking, genuinely. I mean stuff like that is fine to release if you're actively posting more serious stuff all the time, but having that be one of the major 'news' articles over several months of silence is just dire.
new vet psword yay (I swear to god if it's the good old ass chainsword I'm gonna [REDACTED])https://youtu.be/mBM0_acEQQs
Darktide: the cope times
>>539033901They posted the bound by duty update teaser like a day later
>new Mortis Trials map>additional Mortis talents>veteran rework>force saber for vet>dueling sword nerfAre you satisfied now?
>>539034062What's in this massive bound by duty update?
>>539034526couple seconds of nothing showing a new mortis trials map and maybe a new vet weapon. Watch it just be a fucking premium skin
>>539034132>veteran reworkproof?
>>539034132>veteran reworkslide a passive to the leftslide a passive to the rightcriss crossnow everybody please clap your hands
After seeing his steam account there is like a 50% chance the Kirk Shooter posted here.
>>539036003He's probably the guy who wouldn't shut up about "toughness build" zealots
>>539036213rent free
>>539036275The president is going to personally launch you into the sun lil bro. Let's see if your fire grenade and ability cooldown on taking damage can save you from that fate.
>>539033924>new vet psword yaywhere are you getting that? Im seeing a new enemy and a new snoretis map
>>539036776He has a saber-looking sword over his shoulder in the promo image, matches one of the tabletop models.
>>539036923ah I didnt notice, fucking finally
>>539034132Plasma gun uncharged shot nerf, charged shot buff.
>>539036923The dueling sword is a saber, that thing is a machete at best.
>>539038392It's 40k, if it's any type of bladed weapon, it's going to be a thrice-broad paddle because GW is obsessed with keeping things on-model, and all models have massive paddles.It's a wonder the dueling sword isn't a paddle, honestly.
>>539038207hope so
>>539036003Link his steam account

>>539033924What even is this? Who cares about Mortis Trials?
>>539044658No one but its easy “content” to shit out
I was a doomposter prior to the arbites dlc. I was convinced it would be mediocre at best and that the class-exclusive weapons would suck, especially the shotguns. I learned my lesson. The bound by duty update will be great. The new map will be fun, the new enemy will be engaging, the new weapon will be competitive, the nerfs will be well targeted and justified.Hail fatshark, hail victory.
>>539045067>DLC class>mediocreOh no bud they probably already had plans for nerfs before releasing it. They just needed to make sure it was powerful to make it appealing for purchase. Now that the sales have slowed down they'll probably nerf everything.
They had announced a big update for September, and that’s exactly what we’re getting. Personally, I’m always happy to have new quality content, especially when it’s free. A lot of gamers tend to think that devs owe them something, when it’s actually the other way around. Well done, Fatshark!All the best, Welsh Dragon.
>>539046074Man, I hope they fucking do. They could change every 5% node to 3% and the class would still be kind of busted, just no longer allow malicelets to survive in aurics. We also desperately need a stamina nerf.I do worry somewhat about pigger's viability in high havocs after substantial nerfs, because it doesn't really have much going for it other than having inflated numbers on everything. LW shock mine spam is the only thing that comes to mind.
>>539046598Nerftranny stockholm syndrome.
>>539046657nta but dont fucking act like he isnt completely busted in aurics
>>539046787Every class is more than powerful enough for aurics IMOPeople lived through H40 deathless with them all before Arbitrator released, that hasn't changed
Cadia?More like CACAdia!
>>539047083>>539046787Both true statements.
>>539047119rats are fat
>>539046271You made this shitpost already last thread
>>539047083How disingenuous do you have to be to even use this line of argumentation?Yes, every class is very powerful with the right build in the hands of a good player. No surprise there.That doesn't mean it's okay for arbitrator to be cruise control easy mode. Or how 2-3 dogs can beat the lower difficulties all on their own, no player input necessary. Or that it's okay for malicelets to survive aurics just enough to have their "fun" leeching off the success of better players, effectively shitting up the game.
>>539047083Yes of course hes balanced in 40 and thats the problem because aurics are shit cause of that, I think hes more problematic in aurics than the other classes though. I keep having this situation happen where arbitrator kills 10 shotgunners/gunners/ragers instantaneously with a single shot from his shotgun the second he looks in their direction cause he barely needs to aim the fucking thing or situations where I run up to something to smack it just for the stupid faggot dog to jump in and basically kill steal from me constantly. I find playing with players that have the dog more annoying than playing with smiggers
>>539047556The fact you are so worried about malice players is the weird part. They won't even be fully leveled up, they won't know WHAT makes the class powerful or even basic mechanics. And the weirdest part is that you are pretending that aurics are easy because of Arbitrator, but I was under the impression that everyone thought aurics were too easy in general since the talent tree rework, but now everyone's acting like every class is terrible and bad and Arbitrator is god-like, which is why I call it stockholm syndrome. You were conditioned by Fatshark.>>539047589Then they want you to play havocs, play havocs maybe. And don't worry I can shit up your aurics with just my plasma gun that has infinite cleave and instakills every special and 2-shots crushers on the "weakest class".
>>539047886>The fact you are so worried about malice players is the weird part.Imagine if you didn't have breakfast this morning. How would you feel?Let me put this in a way your low IQ tardbrain can parse.>uprising babby has dog>dog is strong enough to get to malice for free>class base stats are strong enough to get to heresy for free>now all it takes is investing some points in the dog and getting to damnation is definitely possible with some effort for the average retard>looking at some build guide now lets tardlets bumble through aurics with 4 deaths thinking this is somehow normalFatshark introduced the progression system, which is an indirect way of encouraging players to try the higher difficulties, and imply that they should be playing there. It doesn't matter whether aurics are easier than they used to be, that is NOT the point. I don't want them in my games. They do not belong. I'd much rather have higher overall difficulty with teammates that actually cooperate, than having to carry 3 worthless retards (You?) through easy mode.>but now everyone's acting like every class is terrible and bad and Arbitrator is god-likeI only see this from havoclets who are too retarded to climb, mostly directed toward veteran who was supposedly replaced by arbitrator. They're obviously too stupid to even explain to why this isn't true.
>>539047886I do play havoc, I do my weekly 40 and I do enjoy them but playing havoc is not what made me fall in love with this game in the first place. The party finder is annoying, playing meta gets stale and the vast majority of players cant handle playing off meta. I also dont always feel like playing a game mode where getting shot by basic shooty bitches twice kills you instantly.>>539047886>And don't worry I can shit up your aurics with just my plasma gunand yes I did not make the claim that other things arent problematic in this game. I'm singling out arbies because I find him the most problematic one because hes so busted even truly dogshit players can make it in aurics with him. Dogshit players playing vet with plasma will also overperform but they are still handicapped by the fact that shitters on vet die easily if he doesnt have shout ready to save them. Arbies does insane damage for nothing, prints out toughness and has a competent ai bot that can target specialists
>>539047886nooo don't killsteal the 3 crushers of the hunting ground run!
>>539048402problem:>I'd much rather have higher overall difficulty with teammates that actually cooperate, than having to carry 3 worthless retards (You?) through easy mode.solution:>havoc
>>539048731>completely deflectingI accept your concession.
>>539048482problem:>playing meta gets stale and the vast majority of players cant handle playing off meta. I also dont always feel like playing a game mode where getting shot by basic shooty bitches twice kills you instantly.solution:>havoc 25-30
I have h40 and true survivor and I did do some h40 on havoc 2.0 however 99% of the time I play aurics or auric maelstroms because it's way more fun to just bumble around and watch shitters do funny stuff and throwing rocks at single shooters as target practice and other shit like that you don't really get on havoc because it's non stop pressure
>>539049901valid
i wish higher difficulties were designed around taking cover and slowly clearing the map between hordes, more like vt2and less about spastic sliding around kiting bosses
>>539049024yeah good luck getting a game
>>539050265You wish it was easier
>>5390490241. Have you tried applying to havoc 25s with an off meta build? You get rejected most of the time even with a fucking true survivor title.2. There needs to be a havoc 25 game up which isnt always the case
>>539047545cry more, cuck lol
>>539050605were* ESL
>>539048773That's not me, I was busy. Anon is completely right though. I have no need to reply to anything else you said.
>>539050265Solution: play VT2
>>539052936i do
>>539051841Cry about what? You did. Stop being brown.
>>539049901i think i’d value the opinion of a crocodile more than the average jeet poster here
I only started attempting to climb havoc recently and I use to hate that I got rejected from the party finder all the fucking time, but after hosting my own games, I'm convinced most players somehow cheesed there way to havoc 40 because somehow a majority of clearance 40 players I accept ARE FUCKING TERRIBLE.
>>539055695You need the loadout inspector mods unfortunately. A lot of people don't care about deranking and will troll.
I don't even havoc unlocked, What's wrong with it?
if I have true havoc level 40 and all I play in a week is a havoc 20, will I derank on the refresh or will I still be true rank 40?
>>539056650as long as you play any havoc game, win or lose, you won't derank
>>539056843alright good to know, someone told me that you'd get deranked down to the highest havoc level you completed that week
>>539055695>I'm convinced most players somehow cheesed there way to havoc 40Nope, just played it early. The first couple weeks of havoc weren't an issue, most games were filled with competent players. It is mostly now, in in the 20-30 range especially, that the wheat has separated from the chaff, and all the shitters remain in their hardstuckie bracket.I would bet money on havoc 20-30 nowadays having a lower average win rate than havoc 40.
>>539055695We need the honse co-op shooter already.
I wish rank resets happened more often.
the VOICES
Unless that Fatshark rework veteran Im not sure know what they expect with just drop a new weapon and mob in mortis trials lol
>>539061496Anon I could barely make out what you are even trying to say. How about actually bothering to learn English before posting on an English speaking board?
>>539061897Right yeah i should justt drink and dont give a shit about videogames in fucking sunday>>539036003Imagine being the parrents of such kid
>>539061496>>539062617Anon. Sober up first. Then post. Please.
>>539055695>I am convinced people cheesedindeedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpSux7d4VH4
>>539033924I honestly forgot about mortis shit till coming to this thread. welp, disappointment.
>snorics trialsSeriously? Fuck off. How about some actual content?
I'll only like new Mortis content if Sefoni moans more frequently and more lewdly in them.
>>539046271Everyday I wish that Badwin has a crash out and gets banned from the forums.
>>539045067Just by seeing that the trailer was just a tease of another snorepiss trials map and a tease of a plasmagun elite, I don't have high hopes.
Don't worry guys I'm sure there will be a big pet update!
>>539067148>vengeful spirits for the psyker>cherub for the zealot>armed servoskull for the vetThe ogryn already has a pet rock.
>>539067596Ogryn gets a cybermastiff but bigger.
>finally unlock Havoc>Get denied from a 20-25 (the only one in my region)I'm just gonna assume this mode just has perma raging shitters
>>53906827020-30 is the hardstuckie range. Just get a mod that lets you inspect from party finder and play your own assignments.
>>539068342I'm yet to play a mission, Getting a full malestorm was hard enough, I'm assuming it's just dead here.
>>539068390What fucking region even, Oceania or something? I know NA-East has questionable havoc player count, but EU is alive and well.
>>539068524Havoc is a dead gamemode.
>>539069013Cope harder, falseflagfag.Havoc is alive and well on EU servers.
>>539069013This. Only youtubers play it. Everyone else just has fun in auric. "progression" in this game is a joke.
>>539068524Yeah Oceania.Played one game with another player and 2 botsIt was fine up until I got caught and the bot AI had a meltdown and lost all 3 of us at once.So my options are, bots or wait to be in the good graces of a perma stuck havoc 20 shitter?what the other anon said, dead game mode. Wasn't even harder then the mission I played to unlock it lmao.
>>539069992You and the 2 other players in your timezone will have to coordinate play time.
>>539070158>the other 2 people who play this are probably mentally unstable due to how unpopulated it is.Should of known something was weird when I played malestorm with exclusively havoc40s.
>>539069992>Yeah Oceania.yeah theres no havocs in the party finder ever. at least not when I play.
>>539070553So we just play maelstorm for ever then?
>>539071087play?
This might be anecdotal but I just found out you can block Rager's attacks, 35 hours in.For some reason I had this idea in my mind that you can't push them or block them
>>539071767newcuties are so cute, soon (1000 hours) you will figure out the esoteric move techs
>>539071146Yes
>>539046271
>>539071767>I just found out you can block Rager's attacksYou will also very quickly unlearn that once you progress through the difficulties, because eventually those fuckers spawn in packs of 3+, then rape you out of all of your stamina into a stun, into getting downed. Not that blocking is strictly bad or anything, but it's usually either a last resort, or the thing you should default to when in a sticky situation and trying to figure out what the fuck to do. Usually, unless you run a lot of stamina, block efficiency, or peril block, blocking ragers isn't really worth it.
why is the heretic plasma red
>>539073345They all are
>>539073469but mine is blue
>>539074156holy kek
>>539074156lmao
>>539073345it's evil
>>539074156made me spit my drink
Do weapon perks only apply to currently equipped weapon?
>>539074156im dying
>>539076438Mostly yes
badwin literally saved the series 8 years ago
>>539076438Usually. Some perks such as close proximity affect your grenades even when the weapon with that blessing is not equipped
>>539076797>>539077438Shucks, I wanted to have more Crit Damage
>>539080171Uncanny Strike affects your soulblaze/bleed/burn stacks as long as you have the weapon equipped. So a fun way to play is to set stuff on fire, then click a few heads with your melee weapon to give the burn rending.
Imagine if curios had attackspeed
I should do martyr skull penances stumbled on couple of them by accident
Do auras stack?
>>539086863No. The only functional benefit of having multiple players with the same aura is that you only have to stay in coherency with one of them to get the buff.
>>539069992Player numbers will go up on next update, which I think it's 2 weeks from now? Until then don't expect much traffic outside of prime time.
From what I understand the Campaign that I just completed can be skipped on any future characters I create?
>barktide was reali honestly can't think of a bigger community manager misstep since "don't you guys have phones"how come fatshark never gets any bad press for this kinda shit
>>539092615yes and I would advise to do sootherwise you have to play each mission in succession, instead of being able to quickplay into a random onealthough if you're a new player you might want to play the campaign a few times
>>539092735Because noone cares about these dead games
>>539092735To have bad press at a big level, you need to have a sizable following. The only people who even know about fatshark at this point are the people invested in a niche game, which is not a lot.
>>539092735>how come fatshark never gets any bad press for this kinda shithttps://www.ign.com/articles/warhammer-40000-darktide-sees-big-player-boost-after-arbites-class-launch-but-monetization-complaints-continue-after-dev-sells-helmet-with-a-raised-visor-for-5
>>539093095darktide's launch was such a disasterfatshark should be a major player rn and instead they fumbled it to arrowheadembarrassing
>>539082647It'd be nice, but pretty OP.Though I do wish they'd rework the curios somehow. Or add some other functionality to them.I saw 1 idea on the forums about maybe allowing blessings on curios, but that could also be super OP.Does mainly depend on what blessings that'd be allowed.
>>539092615Yes it can be skipped and I recommend you do so.It's just not that good or interesting.
>>539099084So what kind of missions should I be doing now?The one with the most rewards?
>>539100025Quickplay is best for that
veteran melta and stubber soon friends! I can't wait!
>aim at head>hit registers as a body shot
Are we getting a scab plasma gunner or is it just a guy for the trailer?
>>539104241It'd be a true fatshark update if it turns out that the plasma scab is Mortis Trials exclusive
>>539034132They need to make sniper vet viable again, I also want to see the infantry lasgun viable again since it's the stock image of 40k guards.Veteran really just needs a way to shove all enemies while holding his gun out.
>>539033901link?
>>539108860I refuse
>>539104241>>539104715I mean they already use plasma guns, the boss has one.
>>539110084The bosses actually use a plasma pistol.It's a very big pistol but all the scab captains/lieutenants are massive anyway.
>>539110320Here's what I predict will happen>it's just a regular gunner dressed up a bit, same animations but he holds a plasma gun instead>the projectile and behavior is just the same as the scab captain boss when he shoots>fatshark is happy with this and ships it Bonus: it'll be a time limited event enemy
>>539071896sad but true>>539074156wtf is this even from
>>539093538you blew his asshole out here>>539092735>"don't you guys have phones"what
>>539110970>spoilerKEK holy shit, I hate how believable that is
>>539110970It was fucking weird that the scab radio operator was added into a penance then removed since it was only an event enemy. Still don't really get why it wasn't just added to the permanent roster unless it didn't work
>>539110970alternatively it will be colossal pain the ass in havocs that will 2-3 shot people and they come in groups, better yet Fatshark goes on another vacation because Christmas or some shit
>>539110320The scab captain uses plama gun though>>539073345Chaos not only affects your body, it also affects the gear and equipment, and the heretics don't follow any standard procedure and customize whatever they lol
>>539047348So are you!
>>539112446Arbitrator wouldn't get 3-shot, skill issue
>>539102284So cute!>>539067596Man that would be cool>>539065641Trve…
>>539073345To differentiate them from us, the good guys, duh!
>>539113973arbitrator can get one shot by karnak shooty twin's shieldyou don't even play the game shitter, hardstucky!
>>539114807but Athens was blue and it was the evil one...
>>539114857I haven't had that happen to me since the first time, because I watch out for it now, so I couldn't tell you if True Grit prevents the one-shot or not.
>>539115475played with arby in havoc the fake twin still one shot our arby, zealot can survive however
>>539117686you sure the arby had the true grit talent?
We don't talk about Sefoni's nipples enough in this general
>>539034132>waited a year for a powersword reskin with relic blade heat mechanic
>>539120685>cum belly tatoothe slut
Did my first Maelstrom mission on HeresyIt was completely dark, so bringing a weapon with a good bullet economy and a flashlight would've been ideal right? I fell of the ledge like 5 times just in that one mission
>>539120853>>waited a year for a powersword reskin with relic blade heat mechanicGrim, one would say.
I need 5-man co-op games, any recommendations?
>>539112516why do the heretics get normal looking arms but our characters all have stick figure ones

I got a cheap key for some coop games, should i try if i dont know anyone IRL that wants to play or it miserable to play them solo at the start and meet people eventually?
THE GOODOLPLASMAGUN
>>539111785please leave and don't come back>>539102284lmfao they're gonna save melta for their next paid update, zero chance
>>539093538>giving ign ad share or any attention at alli sure hope you duckduckgo'd for thatanyway this is about their monetization practices which are just as jewish as any other game right now (thanks Riot)i mean their uniquely awful community management situation that's apparently a revolving door of high school kids
>>539126826jag är bög
too bad Fatshark is cucked or we could get Sister Repentia and count on an influx of coomers to keep the game alive
>>539127947if we got anything at all the game would stay alive
>>539128442true its also just annoying that GW is cucked to the point of WH40k barely being grimdark except when read in a wiki
>>539127947From what i gathered most people just dont like the melee focus and the cashshop
>>539127947What about Skitarii instead
>>539131058the point is the banner on steam needs some booba like 60% of the top sellers
>>539127147trueKrall is so lucky…
>>539129852>most people just dont like the melee focusI've literally never heard this one. In fact, I've exclusively heard the opposite.
>>539127407take your own advice
maelstroms are more fun than havocs
>>539127947They can't even get something as soulful as House Cawdor down right. A Repentia would be doubly bland and boring, not to mention the grotesque faces.
>>539132496Really? I lost count on people complaining that were not vermintide players how gay it is to constantly melee as a sniper for example
>>539132963Why are they wearing fishbowls
>>539129852How the fuck did you "gather" this from "most people"? This is the most insane statement I've read in this general
>>539132626you have to be 18 to post here
>>539129852Many are saying this, many very smart people are coming up to me with tears in their eyes and saying they don't like the melee
>>539134461Im not talking about this threadObviously you would hear that here because the people here playing a dying game so they have not a problem with it, makes sense no?But sure its because there is no boobs on the banner, thats the issue>>539134651Case in point
>>539132834havocs suckits just a perpetual aoe dps checkyou dont have time to enjoy anythingthe only people who like it are dopamine fried in the extreme
>>539134461NTA but people in hdg litterarly complained about this right today lmaoWhy do you pretend this is some exotic shit
>>539134613take your own advice
>>539132963>Cawdor>soulfulGood one.
>>539134983I don't think a few anons being inflammatory is "most people".
there was bitching about melee focus on release day for DT on steam forums tooalso the usual "WHERE SPESS MUHREEN?!?!", guess that crowd got their wish in that other game
>>539133789They prevent the development of personality.
>>539137736Also NTA but half my friend group complained about the amount of melee required.
>>539132963True
I wish Deep Rock Galactic still got big updates :(
>>539112335Like what exactly is the radio operator's purpose anyway? It's not like his extra mobs are a huge addition to the horde since they're just a bunch of regular dudes and a sniper, so it's just another drop in the tide.
>>539140458Sorry, pulled all our resources in a shit rougelite that will bomb hard on release.
>>539140013Why don't they just play Veteran ,Ogryn or Arbitrator and stick to aurics? It's impossible to run out of ammo.
>>539140763Nigger they never left heresy. You underestimate how bad the average player is in coop horde shooters. Your average auric shitter is still top 5%
rat news' ?
what builds can nuke shielded bosses without going into one trick pony category?
>>539142821Vermintide 3 soon
>>539143723cool but I am not finished with 2 yet
>>539143251Any build with a shotgun
>>539143251rumbler and bolter of course, shotguns, laspistol, recon las aren't too bad at it, chain weapons do decent damage too
Am I bad or is the thunder hammer and eviscerator shit?
>>539144682they've both been powercrept pretty hard but they're not shit, they're just B-tier
>>539144748B-tier is shit.
>>539145067perhaps it is you who is shit
>>539145138Nah, I've used the eviscerator before and after the update. It still sucks and isn't that great.
Why haven't fatshark made arbites cosmetics for the other classes?It'd be cool to see an arbites psyker or an arbites ogryn.GW let them make ogryn and psyker skins for all sorts regiments who have never had official depictions as to what their ogryns or psykers look like.
Felinid update when?>:3c
>>539147146On the 23rd.
>>539147146NEVER!!!!!!!
>>539140458>>539140602That really was a tremendous fuck up on their part. Fucking retards.
>>539144682They're shit. Nerftrannies will try to convince you that massive, slow two-handed weapons hitting like pool noodles is "how the game was always intended to be played". There's no real excuse to why the Thunderhammer is slow as shit, nerfs your movement speed like shit, and hits like shit against armor. It's literally only good against poxwalkers. Eviscerator is the same deal.
Barktide when? Will the enemies be cats?
>>539146831Regiments are different from factions though. I’m sure there’s something about the AdMech and Arbites that would prevent Ogryns from becoming members.
>>539147415Bro please, they don't even have to be a playable class, they can be the cooks on the ship that buff one of your stats.
>>539147632Well unfortunately they have the reddit/discord mob in their ear so they won't listen to any actual criticism of the game. Its such a shame, DRG had the most potential to carry the torch from L4D, too bad Ghost Shit Games do not fundamentally understand what made it so good.
>>539147146>>539148025They will happen soon. Trust the plan.
>>539148838My faith is unwavering. My cause is pure. I will trust you and the plan, anon.
>>539148025NNNNNEEEEEVVVEEEERRRR!!!!!! YOU GET NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!
>>539148426but the last season update was goodand maybe the roguelike will be good! (wont play it anyway)
>>539149416>S4 was such a shitshow it forces gsg to make a season which wasnt annoying I wouldn't really consider that an achievement.
>>539140597i'm pretty sure there's someone trying to make this an interesting and good game and then another guy in the room just trying to get a paycheck who says "why not just add another _____ mob" every time they have a meeting
>>539149745I think I played right before season 4 and then like a week ago I started again so I wouldnt know
>>539147146October 17 2028
It's curious that Games Workshop hasn't already released Felinid miniatures to please the degenerates.
>>539111430>wtf is this even fromhttps://youtu.be/mRNtw_Tc1Jc?si=ERuQujI8hsajIuZ9
>>539071767The best techniques against groups of ragers is stunning them, with an ability or your melee, or building distance and shooting them.
>>539151686If they don't look like the sexy ThunderCats I'm gonna riot
>>539151686>It's curiousIt's quite straightforward actually, GW is run by a bunch of 1980s TTRPG boomers who are wildly out of touch with what people like these days and who do not care when told. Much like with AAA Japanese game dev companies, you can apply this logic to every single decision they make and suddenly things will make much sense.
>>539152672the company that owns it is helmed by an old money rich kid who loves nerd shit, you'd think they'd be better off
>>539152672Maybe a few decades ago, since the Tom Kirby era it's been suits calling the shots, and while Kevin Rountree hasn't been a total jew like Kirby was, we still got the shitshow of post 8th edition on our hands now with Blackrock and Vanguard as shareholders.
>>539153963>shitshow of 8th ed40k has been more popular then ever, regardless of how you feel about current rules.
*queefs*
smells like trans up dog in here
>>539154861>40k has been more popular then ever, regardless of how you feel about current rulesthis, and unlike fantasy world, the progress of story in 40k helped the franchise
>>539166989… trans up dog?
>>539143723is there really going to be a third rat game?
>>539172176i don't think fatshart has the juice to make anything new anymore
>>539172176Never
Behold
>>539172642This is gayer than the pride progress flag
>>539172642that's a fat rat
>>539172360This might unironically be the case if all that shit about lost staff members is true>>539173162This
>>539172360they've lost at least three leads - including a technical artist and their Stingray specialist - in the last two years and probably a lot more if the community managers being literal high school students is anything to go bythey run like an indie dev founded by a new money nerd fresh out their mandatory 2 year FAANG resume padding despite having access to Tencent money and one of the most lucrative licenses out theresomething is rotten near the top and they probably literally can't get actual talent to replace the people they've lostif i had to guess i'd say that means all the eggs are probably going in a UE5 VT3 basket
As much as I'd like a VT3 (unless they bungle it) I am afraid they're making age of shitmartide
>>539183378I dunno mayne, GW's all aboard the old world train lately. Pumping out the books and merchandise. Maybe we'll get a prequel. Dunno what more you can squeeze out of end times. Though I fear we won't be getting a tide game whatsoever. But with how greedy fartshart are and how much they know they can make off suckers like us. Maybe I shouldn't be so worried.
>>539184205it doesn't make any sense for them to replace the level of talent they lost with a bunch of people they have to train on their uniquely modified version of an engine discontinued nearly a decade agobet your cheeks on a UE5 game coming up
come to think of it i don't know if you could find a competent engineer willing to waste their career on that even if you wanted to
>>539182228This 100% explains the lack of content for Darktide and in general the lack of quality of it. Even arbites was largely them just reusing old concepts and then copying stuff from other classes.The shotguns largely function just like the combat shotguns do, only difference being they have a limited amount of special shells.The suppression shield itself is also kinda half-old thing and half-new thing, they have the slab shield as a base to work off and also the shock mauls. The new main thing is the flashbang ability.The skilltree has lot of it skills just be copypasted from other classes as is, or they tweaked the numbers a bit. Even the cyber-mastiff is mostly using the pox-hound AI and animations.Which kind of points to the fact that they kinda incapable of making new shit or concepts. Or at least they are hesitant to do so, since they have made the flashbang for the suppression shield. And potentially made heat gauge mechanic for the great sword, though how much of the great sword was made by the old devs who left with the old combat director, and how much of it was made by the new devs, it is hard to say. Considering the fact that the great swords have existed in the gamefiles since beta 3 years ago.My guess for why lot of the "oldguard" so to speak left Fatshark is because they got sick and tired of the fatshark's own management, tencent and then GW meddling in their work. Like we had the interview from Magnuson, the head director of Darktide, and he confirmed that Fatshark has like weekly meetings with GW/its representatives where they discuss and show off what they are doing with the game.So it makes sense they left and then created their own studio and then have went to work for Arrowhead, since AH also uses the Stingray engine for HD2, which is the old devs' specialty.
>>539184205>GW's all aboard the old world train lately.TOW shit is less about GW being excited to bring it back, but more about them realizing it was a mistake to kill it off in the first place. You shouldn't forget that AoS is still 100% on going and GW isn't throwing it away. AoS is basically the 2nd main setting for GW alongside 40k.GW mainly brought the TOW back, begrudlingly, because of the popularity of the Total War games. And you can infer the begruding relaunch from the fact that they mainly just relaunched the old kits they made like 20+ years ago, like many of them are still their old resin finecast and metal models btw.There are some new models they have made, but majority of what they are selling for TOW is just their old stock and old designs.
>>539184205>GW's all aboard the old world train lately. Pumping out the books and merchandise. How so? AFAIK it’s by far the property they have the least interest in right now, their main focuses are AoS and 40k
>>539183378shitmartide would actually be interesting if they didn't do sigmarines
>>539191109does the setting even have other characters
>>539191128Yes. They could get really wacky with it and focus on the nu lore which is good. but GW licensing would just damn it to fucking stormcast. could have your usual suspects in the death realm attacking trademark friendly death cities or something. The setting honestly has potential if you pick at it
>>539191462>nu lore which is goodCan you elaborate? Whenever I looked at AoS lore I saw it was just bland metaverse type stuff.
>>539191128It's easily the wildest rosterfagging you can get from GW IPs
>>539192401Well depends what you want, broken realms or cursed city was well done.Its still honestly a mixed bag, but when they give it to someone who embraces the retardation you get good stories.
>>539189778even the flashbang is just the psyker shoutthe plasma rifle is a clear psyker overheat copy+paste jobthe heat system on the new weapons is probably just them working very slowly on the melta/helgun mechanicsspeaking of which, hopefully they port the plasma over to the new heat UI since quick shots no longer overheat you anyway and the old one feels completely out of placei literally don't think they're even capable of designing new cosmetics at a decent rate - something must've gone wrong with the dev they were outsourcing too because since their lead technical artist left we've gotten almost nothing but recolorsword has it that the new mortis trials map is quite literally just the end portion of Gloriana with portals stapled on

gloriana?more like glory hole and Anna
>>539191109More like if it wasn’t the most pozzed of their properties by a landslide>>539191128>>539192401AoS has some interesting concept and lore, but a lot of it is rather squandered and really just stuff taken from WHF turned up to 11, if you don’t like high fantasy/high fire power stuff it probably won’t appeal to you but stuff like the Deepkin and Flesh Eaters show they can still be creative and ‘out there’.
>>539194496Fatshark also said that they'd be delaying the weapon pack for VT2 by a year, right?Lot of the devs leaving would actually explain why Fatshark did that and suddenly changed their mind about the weapon pack.

I have to create parties for this?How hard this this going to be?
>>539225185Havoc 1-21 are legitimately just heresy with less ammo. you don't get any havoc mechanics like fading light (no toughness grace period invulnerability) or reduced toughness until 22
>>539225185its going to be very easy until around level 20. You are better off begging some higher level player to let you join and play with him so that you get clearance level 20+ and just play at that level instead of slowly grinding with your own seeds
>>539226480>>539225814Some players with Auric Storm Survivor title joined (I think it is supposed to be a fancy title?) and we destroyed a couple of missionAll the enemy types seem to be present it's just that they were all very squishy
>>539225185Play an Auric Maelstrom. That puts you at level 16. Anything below that is piss easy and a waste of your time.
>>539230358the ASS title means they can hold their own in auricsit's not a particularly hard title to get, but it's something I suppose

>scrier gays psyker joins>dies 4 times before fucking off from Havocthey never learn
>>539244626I never feel safer with a psyker on my team because I know they'll just shit themselves the moment things go slightly bad. Bubble isn't worth the gamble that the Psyker won't get themselves killed. I couldn't give less of a shit that they can put poxwalkers on fire. Would rather have any other class before a Psyker
>>539246247a psygger either makes the whole run a lot easieror is fucking dead weightthere's never any in-between
What build do i play if my goal is for my teammates to call me 'good girl'? Can't decide between chorus zealot or bubble psyker.
>>539248121Cringy ass tranny

>Either is fine. I'd call you a good girl
>scout joins>calls a resupply before we reach the ommoran>instantly starts the drill when we do reach it>stands on top of the drill while getting crystal trapped
>>539231148Arguably the easiest modifier in havoc because the 21st can get mass suppressed, while poxwalkers don't. It's basically a downgrade for the enemy.
>>539254274yeah just played a few games with it, literal nothing burger for Ogryn/Zealot, Psyker falls asleep as wellI do like seeing enemies with colors that don't blend in with environment though

>>539232481moot didn't crucify himself through five arduous years tanking google surveillance projects for you to start namefagging on others' behalf, knock it offalmost as bad as elden ring general with this shit between the dwarfjew and now you
>>539203029Yeah, it's almost too obvious to bother observing that VT and DT are on life support just milking whales at this point. As far back as VT versus mode it already felt like the game mode was someone's bastard love child come through a meat grinder in a desperate effort to deliver it before peacing out. It's clearly more effort than they put into anything else and by the time it came out, it was pretty clear nobody really wanted it anymore - the game is way too old and janky to feel remotely competitive compared to what's out there now. And it still feels half-finished. Allowing a Tencent plurality investment is more than just a laughable 4chan meme, it's pretty much acknowledging that your studio and its audience is ready to be stripped for parts. Whatever they have in the pipes is probably a do-or-die situation as far as most of the employees working above their skill level are concerned. But this is all (((informed))) guesswork, who really knows. Beyond the fact that their next project is almost certainly UE5, anything could be happening. Maybe they just invested every cent in Bitcoin over the years and enjoy trolling kids and taking tencent for a ride.
>>539264178but... I did that...
>>539266890oops anon, hope you enjoy roguelikes!
>beat a havoc 30 on reset day>have to wait a week to get invited to any more havoc 30scool
Is it worf it to just join the Darktide trannycord in order to actually find havoc lobbies? There are literally none on the party finder all night whenever I try to play.
>>53926794130 is actual purgatorypeople only want 40s to carry them
>>539265823I'd assume they're banking everything on the UE5 game, but with their general incompetence at running a live service game without having bugs or lack of content, I doubt they can coast by without crutching on a bigger IP like they did for the tide games.
>>539268384>clearance 40 starts giving me unsolicited advice>goes down almost instantly in our 29 havoc>spends the rest of the match going on about how the relic sword is a crutchi mean he's not wrong but lol it really is just worse as you go up
>>539264324nah the ER General have their work cut out for them with the shot they got going on in there lol
>>539265823Yeah, this seems pretty likely. It’s guesswork but the math adds up. Only time will tell I suppose…
>>539265823>>539268503Their management must be fucking weird.

I don't really see the point in playing anything but arbiter.
>>539275857it's a videogame for the purpose of having fun
4 arbiters make havoc a joke up to ~35 when unless you're a true solo you need a psyker and that messes up everything because then you need yellow toughness
I always fuck up and get covered in vomit when fighting burgles, therefore a bubble psyker is mandatory.
yeah there's always at least one
I bought Arbiter on release day and still haven’t played him yet because I got distracted by real life shit and haven’t had the motivation to get back into it.
>>539276546Post full map solo clear (and cata banners)
>>539268261every match will go the same waylose once everyone pretends to be chill, one guy gets a lil passive aggressivethat guy starts raging the next roundthe quietest guy quits on second losseverybody leaves mad
>>539278094the class really lays bare how little this game has going on b/c they can do everything and having even just one competent npc teammate makes every difficulty other than auric pointless for even the biggest mouthbreather
Almost wish I were a code monkey so I could write a glider bot for this game to farm diamantine via nonstop malice runs on arbitrator
>>539275857I still enjoy psyker for bubble shield and staff doesn't require ammo.
New leakNew vet Power sword is just a power sword with a heat sink mechanic
>>539280702*power falchionAnd it will be available to the zealot as wellTrust the plan
Jesus christ who thought it was a good idea to give zealot the dueling sword.
I'd rather get rework in Veteran talents tree than just another melee weapon
>>539284337You'll take your power sword (but worse) and like it
the only thing fatshark could do to sink this game lower is to release a Sergeant/Officer class that's literally just veteran but with a hybrid ranged/melee gimmick
>>539285161but vet already has that gimmick
>>539285367exactly
>>539278417Wouldn't be a problem for me, I don't lose.
>>539280702That's exactly what I wanted.
>>539287786perfect just make a second account and you're only 39 matches away from havoc 40you'll be one of like ~100 people who still play and can actually start a 40
>>539284772Nah, I'm tired of see Veteran dealing with several tax gray nodes while Ogryn and Arbiter have more freedom to build his shit, the old Power Sword was good and got nerfed like the Shovel, meanwhile Dueling Sword remains untouched
>"Veterans won’t be left out for too long.">The veterans in question:
How long do you think it will until the Darktide patch hits? No date is listed in the video.
>>539292252We should be getting a havoc mission pool update tomorrowI wouldn't hold my breath on them including anything else though
>>539292252On the launcher it says sept 23.
How do you do fellow 1%ers.
>>539294298~100 people is 10% of the people who play anonsteam numbers are full of afks and bots
Why do people insist upon the tac axe?Its swing pattern (especially the popular one) is dogshit and I'm pretty sure it's out matched in damage by the other finesse weapons tooThere has to be something I'm missing
>>539294126So it does. Thanks
>>539294751You can do millions of damage with it on arbitrator. It has really good DPS and the coveted stagger special with I THINK about as much stagger as the dueling sword, just much worse range. It was also buffed semi-recently to have much better mobility.>There has to be something I'm missingBuild for crits, aim at heads.

>>539304816i bought the class with money from steam cards$12.99 is cheap to leave Fatshark another negative review
in a better world arbites was just a tree in the veteran rework that separated the talents into three flavors of vet: commissar, kasrkin, and arbiteszealot gets a skiitari-lite flavor, a priest flavor, and a SoB flavorpsyker gets a biomancy tree instead of the stupid ass gun psyker memeand the fifth class is ratling
More like Votann
votann doesn't allow for kino very subtle references to being a stormvermin in disguise who was lost in the warp when the skittergate was destroyed
loud man scares us, yes yes, reminds us of worse man-things
sharp bug scares us, yes yes, reminds us of worse bug-things
>play malice on new character>its harder than havoc on my old character because teammates cant stop dying and are completely obvious to specials
>>539332848damn i wish the game took advantage of their lazy cardboard cut out aborted attempt at RPG mechanics and there were any reason at all to roll a new char once you have the classes at 30
>>539334287well anon you can always stockpile Mjëlk bux on new characters and then spend them on uh... yeah

>>539317506>>539317792By announcing an announcement they've already done their job. Now time for another vacation
>>539334998funnily enough i guess i never did a havoc on my ogryn cuz i don't have aurics unlocked even tho he's been 30 for a minute and ran a few aurics before whatever update changed itthey also set my havoc clearance level to 0 across my characters even tho i could do 20s at the stationthey really can't do anything right
>>539342078i u/i think they have an internal policy that whenever a community manager gets upset they just delay the update in an attempt to coerce the community into better behaviorseems to be working very well
I have over 100k milk monies and still don't want to roll for the slightly better curios
do they have a policy that only community managers can interact with the communitythis is probably the only company i've seen where the actual designers don't engage frequentlywhat's the point of working on a game if you don't even want to have an audience
Even the Darktide trooncord is talking about Helldivers 2 in general chat and they have been for over an hour.
>>539344752so cool
>>539344891how's payday 3?
>>539335874sorry, but DT is so far gone that there is nothing that can save it.It's has been rotting for over a year now, if not longer.Find something else because Fatshark will only continue to lower your expectations.They had something special, but they blundered it so fucking bad.No balance patch, just cosmetic slop and uninteresting game modes.Insane.

>>539346868What breed of dog is this
why is it so hard to teach these retards to grab the jet boots at the end of deep scan missions
>payday 2 still gets 20k daily>payday 3 is on life support with no good qol updates in sightit wasn't supposed to be like this
Tide game/horde shooter..but made by a french studio.

>>539318486>Murkoff isn’t the CIA though, I think at best they collaborated or some shit.Easterman's Trials are a product pipeline for sleeper agents intended for use by the CIA. Wernicke's work on the morphogenic engine runs parallel but Easterman is butthurt that Wernicke is allowed to interfere.

>>539360493Right, it’s a side project more or less, the main goal at this point is still the creation of Walrider or whatever
>>539360648POWERCELL
>>539356510extremely based and coomer centric
>>539363364Due to early fuck ups and complications the Trials would have been shut down by now if Wernicke didn't have such an interest in them, so that's fair.
>>539345036grim but truewhat else is there?
>>539356510>Developer: Streum On
>>539351514Hilarious how they try to justify releasing an $8 dlc heist for a game played by like 300 people. You're not even making your money back on that dev time even if 100% of the playerbase buys it at that point. They need to just cut bait and work on PD4 if they want to salvage the IP.
>>539342437>in an attempt to coerce the community into better behaviorClearly isn't working since they released the Bound by Duty trailer the very next day AFTER, they posted the Barktide post and the subsequent backlash it got.
>>539366379idk what you're talking about their forum discourse looks very healthy
>only havocs up are 40>sorry only accepting 40s >post my own>0 people even try to join
>>539366789Just play auric.Havoc is a dead gamemode anyway.
auric won't give me black armormaelstroms are dead most of the time
>>539367365yeah this
really i just want a chance to join people struggling through the 30s as clearance level 40 and then instantly die since so many of you fuckers did it to me37 just doesn't have the right effect
>>539367581>Seething that hard over a fucking dead game mode in a game on life support Unhinged shitter.

>>539368019>two new veteran weapons>talent tree reworkDaring today, aren't we?
you're gonna feel pretty gay when i suck you off to completion
>>539368019>veteran reworkwhat a fucking minefield that one will be>Fatskank doesn't want to buff them to release levels of OP, can't overshadow Arbiters>have to scrap all those retarded white nodes and make some interesting blue ones >have to address the fact that people gravitate towards 3-4 guns either by nerfing those or fiddling with talents that buff specific weapon typesand before you start typing how more guns are hecking valid, people don't use them period.>almost certainly will change the grenade spam
>>539364667Lmao seriously? What the fuck is wrong with those idiots? Might be even worse than Fatshark at this point
>>539369046>and before you start typing how more guns are hecking valid, people don't use them period.The big reason why people don't use shit like autoguns is purely because the guns are just bad in the current meta.The AI director spams carapace at such high level and frequency that you need shit like bolters or plasma to make a dent into it.The entire gameplay took a nosedive when the devs didn't buff enemy health and the like and only buffed enemy spawns.
>>539368858why are you sucking men off you faggpt

>>539373503They spawn often in the rockpox season though
>>539369046>>539371563what if exec stance gave rending to ranged weaps
Heavy flamer for ogryns
>>539383341I saw 1 in 8 missions also I can promote gunner and do another assignment for a pickaxe tomorrow thats cool
what happened to daemon hosts, I never see them anymore
>>539371563>The AI director spams carapace at such high level and frequency that you need shit like bolters or plasma to make a dent into it.This isn't why nobody uses autoguns.In fact, this is even arguably a wrong way to use bolter and plasma even in aurics. It definitely is in havocs.I know having to rely on power sword or dueling sword is just as shitty, but you are supposed to melee those.Autoguns don't see any use because, like most automatic weapons, they're designed to mow down hordes. Mowing down hordes with your ranged weapon is almost universally retarded because it wastes ammo for no reason. Lasguns can get away with this because they have infinite ammo.The only thing that remains is taking out specials and the like, which even revolver and bolt pistol are better at. Boltgun mostly wins out because it needs to reload less and can magdump clowncars of shotgunners before they rape you, as well as having huge boss DPS. The only time you should even bother shooting crushers is if you're built to two-shot them with headshots, and that only works in aurics.If you magdump crushers, I invite you to please kill yourself.Cleaving armor with plasma is only viable in aurics, and it's kinda fine there I guess. Still better to melee them. I reject plasma sissies from my havocs so I don't have to deal with their autism.
Every now and then I’ll spectate a player who’s actually decent with auto guns and somehow manages to make it look fun then I equip it next game and it’s really not fun
yellow + 21st is so fucking ass. it takes a darktillion years to kill hordes without flame weapon
>>539382034Just carry harder
>>539391121>bro cant win with a plasma vet Lmao shitter
>>539371563>The AI director spams carapaceSoon...
Does anyone here play Spce Engineers?do you just join a random pub server? or play with frens?
>>539371563>The entire gameplay took a nosedive when the devs didn't buff enemy health and the like and only buffed enemy spawns.What a dogshit opinion lmao.>please give me less enemies to kill in this horde shooter :(Kill yourself.To anyone reading this, keep in mind this absolute troglodite is NOT talking about havoc. He struggles against the half-dozen crushers in the typical auric run.>you need shit like bolters or plasma to make a dent into it.No, you dumb fuck, you don't.
>>539400608I think he's correct in that crushers should be big bad enemies you need to actually face and interact with, while horde enemies should be way more plentiful than nowRight now, you sometimes have hordes with like 30 crushers in them but it doesn't matter cause they all bleed out to uncanny shit anyway. Like I'm not saying the game needs less enemies but the distribution is fucked right now. It's the result of the nuclear arms race between spawnrates and OP player tools (aforementioned uncanny bleed for example)
>>539401210I agree in the abstract, ie a normalization of power levels would allow for more variety of builds, but I don't think focusing on only one system, carapace armor and its proliferation, is the key to do it. Unless you meant it as the metaphorical canary in the coal mine.
>>539404281It's definitely just one aspect of the issueI think if I had to identify the base issue it's >players are so strong that 40 crushers can be removed as safely as 40 poxwalkers
>>539405410I meant to say crushers/bulwarks/maulers/any elite whatever. Players can turn all of them into cannon fodder. It's not good for game balance, it turns the game kinda mindless once you understand how to do it
gunners are unironically bigger problem than crushers
>>539405654This. Having to slide every nanosecond so you aren’t turned into swiss cheese gets annoying quick.
>>539406140no sliding is good you see because ummmm apex legends errrr don't be a shitter uhhhhh i have adhd
flame roastie has been redeemed!
>>539400608When Darktide launched it was an actual horde shooter.But then fatshark started making console ports and had to make hordes retardedly small, and to compensate they started spamming elites by the dozen.Which isn't a sensible way to balance this game because all the skills in the game triggers off of elite and specialist skills.Spamming elites and carapace isn't the solution. What fatshark should've done is buff health and for elites a lot, but then make hordes more interesting with different enemies.Because only shit we have are just 2 color swaps of a bruiser, a groners which is just a weak bruiser and then pox walkers.
>>539391121I magdump crushers in auric on the regular and I still finish missions with like half ammo on my zealot.
>>539413782i dont mind the elites, its the specials that make the game a slog
>>539413782Just play L4D2 on easy mode and fuck off
>>539414151Both are a slog and their spamming makes the game stupid.Most skills in the game trigger off of elite and specialist kills, like CDR skills, when they spam elites and specialists like horde mobs it only makes the game only more easier because you can spam your abilities even more.
>>539414713No.
>playing 33 immortals at 1am >2nd boss mode>carrying the shit out of this 3 man squad ( theres suppose to be 22 man team but this game is dead as fuck)>we complete 6/8 minibosses>they cant do shit without me>my internet goes out im so sorry bros...
>transition errorheh....
brown
Are havocs worth getting into as level 0? Seems like everyone else is already maxed out.
>>539419998yes and noyes because you can get neat set of armor, also some runs are genuinely funno because RNG will bite your balls often with enemy spawns so some runs will end in a sour note, also no because ranking system sucks and you will find people with high ranks sabotaging your runs
>>539405654hard disagree. Easily staggered, easily suppressed, can be line-of-sighted, and bullets can be blocked with certain abilities, not to mention sliding provides immortality. I've died more to sneaky poxwalkers.
>>539419998yes but maybe wait for the update next week, because player numbers are very low right now
ratbros?
>>539420373>he didn't Renew Nowygwyfd
>>539420373kek, their domain expiredquick someone buy it
>>539420373
>>539420485need to wait a week for that i think
>>539420373GIVE ME RENT
Will you donate to my patreon if i buy vermintide domain and use it to broadcast any messages you want?
>>539420373Ok this shit just confirms that the studio is completely fucked ever since the old devs left.If the next game fatshark releases flops, then they are done as a studio.
>>539422590It's honestly impressive to me how badly Fatshark fucks up darktide.They made a new enemy which is still just reused scab gunner with a backpack and no helmet and it had bomber AI.And they still just fucking removed the enemy from the game anyway after the event.
>>539425635stop noticing things bigot
>>539422590Imagine if these guys would start broadcasting, giving you a time limit to kill them before they summoned a patrol.
>>539425635Scab plasma will the trapper but with helmet and taller lol
>>539420223yeah but gunners kill the player fantasy/creative designwarhammer 40k is not apex legends/the finalshaving prisoners kill thousands of poxwalkers is one thing, it can be hand waved by hero statshaving them sliding around constantly at mach speed is just ridiculous
>>539422590>they already renewedi was actually going to do it just to publish whatever their lawyer sent me before giving it backi guess they can be arsed to work on occasion after all
>>539437237>huge plasma rifle>runs up to you silently at mach speed and blows an aoe charge in your face>also blows up while dyingT-thanks fatshark
>>539444165it would be cool if you bait them into blowing up
>>539033924New Mission?!
i'll forgive them if the update notes include that nets now interact with terrain
I think the reason why we haven't gotten any news about the next update beside the trailer is because Kitefin quit and Fatshit genuinely can't hire or get another person to replace them.
Darkturd moment
>>539412431Such a weird voice line.>>539420373>>539421048>>539422361LMAOOOOOOO
>>539422590i will pay 2.50 if you broadcast various chuddie messaging
>>539419998I find havoc genuinely fun, it's the only way I can actually drive enjoyment out of this game anymore. That being said it's pretty hard to find people right now, might pick up again with next update but getting in fresh might be trouble without help from a friend or an anon to pull you in. Everyone is going to see no clearance level, assume you're retarded and not want you to join their party.
>>539445069We haven't gotten anything decent since Patch 13 which is ironically when the combat designer quit. I don't care if some autist thinks another patch was more balanced or whatever. I mean that's the last time substantial, coherent code-intensive work was done. Everything since, even Arbites, has been a copy & paste job with values changes like anons pointed out in the last thread.Their animators and VFX are fine but the remaining engineers don't seem to understand the mechanics of the game, as indicated by how much shit was broken on Arbites.
What school in Sweden starts classes in the middle of September btw?Did Kitefin quit an entire semester in advance?

>>539451397If he is going to college or university the starting times can be different.Also at least here in the nordic countries ,iirc, students can start their studies again later after the summer vacation based on how much they studied last year.So basically if you squeezed few extra courses into your work schedule and finished all of them on time, then you can start next semester a bit later.
>>539452002They only want UE5 slop because the people who actually understood how Stingray engine worked fucked off.
>>539453648Plausible, they all left for arrowhead because they saw the company has a future and is not owned by tencent
they're looking for lead qualifications with an individual contributor ad and it has the definite vibe of "make this game for us"they're fucked
>>539453130Kek
>AI >UE5 >Procedural Generation (Non-AI)holy sloppa
>>539460252>>AI >>UE5 >>Procedural Generation (Non-AI)If the speculations of the UE5 project being VT3 are true, that shit will be flopping.Even more so if the speculations about it being based on AoS comes true.Darktide might unironically be the last ok game Fatshark ever makes. The studio is practivally done for.
>>539456692>not owned by tencentAbout that...I guess it's not a majority so you're technically correct, but still.
>>539461884yeah that's a world of difference thoits having an annoying bitch in your ear vs. giving the annoying bitch the keys to your car
