Huh? Have you tried the rippergun? I can shred groups at range pretty effectively before they close in. I guess I'm still playing on the easy difficulty so it's probably not extremely effective on the harder ones but Ogryn isn't going to be headshotting enemies from far away.

yeah the Ogryn is never going to handle long range threats, that's for Veteran and Psyker

a lot of people are down on current Psyker but I'm having a good time, just have to be judicious about when to headpop and I guess once you are max level you get the feat that increases headpop speed for a while on using F so then it might be more useful. I still headpop random mobs just for the damage buff from the warp charge basically. Being able to do it a bunch of times all the time like some videos I saw from the closed beta was just way too strong. The toughness restoration over time feat is also pretty good if you can squeeze one in in a pinch.

I'm quite surprised how well my dodge-block-strike muscle memory from VT2 is coming back fast and so I usually need far less healing than most of the pubs I play with :cool:

I was having a lot of disconnects and instances where it would just close the game instantly (a crash i guess)
Heard that using a vpn could help so imma try that and see if it works

For me turning off DLSS and G-Sync entirely solved my extremely regular crashing. Worth a shot at least:

They're doing twitch drops for Darktide, right now it looks like it's just a lasgun skin. Use the Twitch drops miner to get em idling without having to ever watch a stream! (but you do still obv need a twitch account and to link it and poo poo)

Going to try this next to fix my reboots - lowering my clock speed and not playing in ultra-wide didn't help. What lovely fix if it actually works though.

Using the smaller catachan knife is pretty fun, you lose some easier horde clearing but the alt attack is a near instant no startup bop in the nose of anything you're fighting that seems to stun and interrupt attacks and can also kill if you headshot it.

I played two rounds last night and had zero stability or fps issues on a 1060 at 1080p. That said, I think it's mostly luck since one of the games saw me as the only constant party member, as probably a half dozen other players joined and crashed out by the time I finished the level

If you special with the catachan knife and then light attack you do a much, much faster heavy stab that will one shot all trash and do a ton of armor pierce to most stuff, as far as I can tell.

It's awesome how they do the thing in this game that they did in VT1/2 and Turtle Rock forgot to do with Back 4 Blood which is the great sound cues for specials that alert those who are paying attention. I like that the flamer sounds like a gas range starting up. Does the trapper make a sound? I swear that fucker just shows up.

Trapper is a lot of maniacal cackling, I think.

I enjoy the less vocal, more uniquely distinct sounds for some of the specials spawning. The click-click-click-FWOOSH of flamers and PING of a pin being pulled for the bomber are both great and easy to pick out of the noise.

It's not the most distinctive which can be an issue considering how dangerous the special is. Contrasted with the hound where its literally impossible to miss the sound cue lol

Agreed. Its why I loved the globadier special sound in vermintide as well

Notes.

HOTFIX RELEASED TODAY, NOVEMBER 18TH:
Fixed various crashes.
Fixed a bunch of graphics settings not applying properly.
Fixed some issues when trying to navigate the Social menu and Penances section using a controller / gamepad.
Fixed an issue where grenades are refilled if leaving and reconnecting to the mission. Number of grenades are now inherited from either replaced bot or previous self.
Fixed an issue where spamming buttons in the Operative Selection menu would cause the Start and Create Operative buttons to disappear.
Fixed an issue where unavailable settings were not greyed out.
Fixed and polished some issues with various cosmetic items.
Fixed an issue where inventory items could appear at low fidelity.
Fixed an issue where firearm sights could load lower fidelity models, rendering them difficult to use.
Fixed an issue where the Barber-Chirurgeon spoke in unlocalised text in the Mourningstar.
Fixed a wield-switch speed bug, adding movement curve on wield to average out move speeds.

Psyker Changes & Fixes
Fixed critical threshold to line up with interfacing for "past point of no return".
Fixed critical threshold using the correct 97% value.
Fixed Passive venting and Active venting using the wrong values.
Active venting duration: 6s, modded properly by force staff vent stat (scales between 6s and 3s vent time based on stat roll).
Auto vent delay set to 3s before kicking in.

From the Combat Team:
You should be able to cast 3 head-pops without exploding, landing at 100% peril. There is a 3s delay to auto-quell below the critical 97% threshold for repeat cast. There is also a 10% change built into class to quell 10% peril on kill, allowing for additional casts. Faster active quelling, in general, with extra speed on staves, allow for more player control of peril levels.

So while we have nerfed the number of head pops players can cast without too much peril, we've also tuned up other sources of damage (specifically agony stacks) and staff-manual-vent/quell loop for more varied gameplay. Full head pop builds with vent-rolled staves are still viable, but the old "multiple head-pop > ult > back to head pop" loop is gone.

Passive venting was faster than active yesterday so I assume/hope so.

Yeah I gotta say psyker just kinda doesn't feel all that good right now. They nerfed the poo poo out of the headpop to the point where it barely feels more useful than a veteran, the passive ability is a huge annoying waste of time, and for some reason decided that the already situational force sword should also be nerfed as well for some reason. I'll stick with it a while longer to see if the staves are any good, but so far it's not looking great.

e: this was before the hotfix, here's hoping that helps some

There'll be a "Barber-Chirugeon" so I assume you can fully remake them once that's in. When it's in? :shrug:

Not right now but there will be. There is a station in the hub to modify your character but it's not active at the moment.

As good as the sound is I think they need clearer visual cues pointing you towards teammates in peril. It's really hard to tell sometimes when a teammate is trapped or is pinned/fell off a ledge. Maybe it's there already and I'm just not seeing it but I feel like when someone got hooked by a hook rat it had UI elements pointing you in that direction if you aren't looking towards them.

Frustrating, because I'm getting nothing like this. I'm hovering at an unreliable high 40s FPS-wise with a 2080 at 1080p.

My CPU isn't capping out so it seems like it's got to be an optimization issue for now?
