For the old fucks like myself who grew up using inverted mouselook and now can't play normal, I found this on the official forums:

quote:

download: https://github.com/a1xd/rawaccel/releases/download/v1.4.4/RawAccel_v1.4.4.zip
Extract it and install using the installer
Restart your pc (Important)
Download https://github.com/oleg-st/InvertMouse/releases/download/1.0.1/InvertMouse.zip
Extract it and run InvertMouse

I've been using it and it works, it just gets weird if you alt-tab or bring up the ping menu because InvertMouse works on the mouse cursor being hidden, and it takes it a second to revert back. Also, there's newer versions of both programs but I couldn't make it work with the newer versions (even if InvertMouse explicitely says it works with 1.6.0 of RawAccel), so I recommend using those links.

/edit: Having said that this mostly works, this poo poo better have invert mouse and sensitivity settings at launch.

During the beta the in game dialog referenced something called "grenade fists" at character creation for the ogryn. Someone up thread mentioned power claws. I have to imagine they get a Warhammer or like a 2 handed chain great axe.

Comedy option is they get the rebar and concrete hammer the ogryn smasher enemy has.

The Ogryn grenadier gauntlet, in tabletop, is essentially an arm-mounted grenade launcher that sprays frag grenades. Not sure how that will translate to Darktide but I imagine its alt-fire will just be a massive punch the way other guns have bayonets.

I saw a youtube video with a four Ogryn team. It seemed strong until they met an Ogryn Smasher, and it took the entire team twenty five seconds of focusing it to kill it. Role difference in Darktide is real, it's not just choosing a weapon and appearance.

In the 'ol Only War tabletop RPG, Ogryns could utilize some heavy weapons such as autocannons and heavy stubbers, as they were considered simple and durable enough for the big lunks to use.

Personally I want to see a makeshift ballistic hammer comprised of a repurposed tank turret with a round still chambered

Aren't Ripperguns designed to be used as clubs because a lot of Ogryns can't quite wrap their heads around the idea of reloading? The pro-tier move would have been to make every Ogryn ranged weapon also a melee weapon.

I know the bulk of the population will be on Steam. It sucks poo poo that there's no crossplay in year 2022. It seems like only giants like Fortnite can force crossplay on every platform. Most of the other games get walled off. Fatshark isn't even doing crossplay between PC Gamepass and PC Steam let alone PC and console.

I had two autoguns, one with a mag of 29 and the other with a mag of 18 (much too small). Max ammo was about 6x of a single mag, so it turns out thats really important. Not sure if this was weapon stats or different models of autogun.

It was awkward to use as it needed cocking on every weapon switch, and had huge recoil by the 3rd shot in a burst. Well worth it though as the damage was good and it felt like it had a degree of armor piercing I'd not seen in other ranged weapons.

I got to try it in the technical test, where it really was very good. About as accurate as the lasgun with short bursts, and if you can control the recoil you can really dump damage into specials even faster than with the lasgun. Plus of course very solid horde clearing capability. Though it did have the downside that it runs out of ammo pretty much instantly.

I did not like the autogun on Psyker. I don't know if it was a framerate issue or what, but gun recoil was not consistent for me - sometimes it would be fine, sometimes go completely bonkers and point me practically at the ceiling, so a gun that relies on sustained accuracy was a non-starter.

The faster-firing autogun seemed to work best as a midrange suppression/flinch tool; On difficulty 3 I would hip-fire it at groups while closing into melee for good effect. You could stunlock tougher enemies to death by magdumping headshots in ADS but you'd chew through ammo doing so.

Crossplay between steam and gamepass seems to be harder than you'd think. Quite a few games don't support it.

Yeah there's two variants, one with slower ROF and smaller mag but presumably more damage, and the other with opposite traits. The faster-shooting one feels a lot better, but that said both suffer from terrible ironsights.
