Asking again, GMG says tat pre-ordering nets you into the beta access but won't poo poo out a key. Is this normal? I almost exclusively go through steam.

Dryb posted:Have they stated the number of maps that will be available at release? 13, I believe. With individual maps being a mix of the full length maps and the 15 min lunch break maps.

Downloading now. Feels so good, so fresh. Edit: This is a very small game, data-wise. I started early thinking it would take a while. Less than 90 minutes to unlock! Inzombiac fucked around with this message at 16:35 on Oct 16, 2015 |

Not sure if this is the full download, seems like some form of pre-download that's missing files.

I don't see where they said it's the same 3 maps. The full game is 13 maps by the way

I set my computer to install the game this morning. Came back to a 244 MB Vermintide folder. Now I'm downloading the actual game. Now I feel silly. I'll be around to bop rats after 20:00 CST tonight. From my experience in the recent beta up time, you don't really need upgraded gear to get through Hard runs if you can work together, so I'll be down for some of that. Until tonight I'll just be dinking around on normal-difficulty bot games while my daughter paints my nails or something.

Fear of bad reviews? I doubt it, all the maps so far have been quite good. I'm guessing they will release the maps gradually during the early beta.

Could be bugs in the non-tested ones though.

Yeah it's a bit weird how public betas are often treated as demos/a chance to play early so they have a fraction of the content of the full game, when they still need to test all of the levels. I won't have a chance to play for awhile, maybe 2 months so it won't affect me but they will probably end up with more bugs in the maps that aren't in the beta when the game launches.

If the developers treat it that way, it's because the public treats it that way. Just go back a few pages to see people flipping out that there were bugs in the earlier betas.

Yeah people are retarded. The "beta = demo/early access" stuff is pretty hard set anymore. Which is funny because my idea of a beta is the kind of MMO beta where half the quests don't trigger and you tend to clip through the map and fall into the skybox. Still, at least they find the bugs. At least let them into the new levels

What I think they are doing is getting everyone who pre-ordered (which is a lot) up and running on the first few maps. Then over the next 7 days, they can unlock 1-2 maps/day, and people should rush into each one in a fairly predictable manner, giving better test results. Gealar posted:Darn I was hoping the download steam did last night would have been most of the game. But if it is 12gb or more I know I have a lot of downloading to do when I get off work. Full game is quoted as 20gb in minimum specs, so the 14 we are seeing now isn't all of it either.

MagnumOpus posted:Right now the only maps I see are Horn of Magnus, Smugglers Run, and Supply and Demand. Judging by the streams I watched before they closed beta last night, each map seems to be about the length of at least 2 left 4 dead maps. There seems to be more swarm/timed/holdout events in each map compared to l4d as well.

They are L4D players who haven't learned about the game yet.

Yeah a lot of players treat this game like L4D so far. Run as fast as you can to the exit and just mash fire over and over with melee. You can squeak (heh rat joke) out a win in easy like that but if you don't learn blocking, dodging, and timing heavy attacks you're gonna be hosed on anything harder
