Just got into a game with someone using a lasgun rifle that melted everything in a second flat. Any special, Mutants, Crushers, Reapers, everything. Is that the bugged burning trait people were talking about?

Edit: Heresy

No bug there, the only bug is that stamina drains rapidly while firing instead of only while aiming down sights like the veteran feat description, so it's actually a little weaker then it should be.

It shouldn't burn crushers much though.

Speaking of janky behavior was trying out the chainsword and attacked a mutant charging me with it, when you chainsaw something you kinda get attached to whatever it is you are sawing so on my screen I was spinning around rapidly and on my friends screen he saw a mutant spinning around me rapidly.

This is fun if you use the Chainaxe on a Zealot and you do light swings while dashing with your ult. The dash will continue but you'll do these instant 180-degree spins to lock on to a target with your chainaxe cutting animation for a second then continue the dash.

If we're doing dream classes I'd like to see any of the imperial assassin clans, especially culexus (psychic nulls with no soul and uhh some sort of head mounted gun). Combat drugs would be a fun mechanic.

Ratlings means snipers which means randos in your games permascoping. I am willing to accept this if the Ogryn can use them for a Fastball Special.

I'm okay with this because I will intentionally body block their shots and then leave them to die when they fail to keep up.

This is the first FPS and one of the first games in general in a very long time where I've continued playing after there was nothing left for me to "do" in it other than chase tiny incremental upgrades, just because it looks and feels so satisfying to play. All of the visual effects and audio cues are excellent, the lighting is excellent, all the ways that on-screen effects telegraph what's happening (e.g. the laser flash or scope glint before shooters fire at you, laser pointers telegraphing where their attention is focused to make flanking feel organic, the ways that enemies react to getting shot by various kinds of weapons, etc) are all so good


I know it's unlikely but I would love some kind of alien as a 5th character. Playing as a Tau Firewarrior or a dorky eldar or something would be sick. And it sucks that warhammer games rarely let you play as the aliens.

Yup, welcome. There's a ton of people who have been playing Vermintide well after they were completely geared out for years.

Darktide 2 allows you to meticulously color and decorate your Space Marine, placing over 800 varieties of skull decals anywhere you wish. 5 minutes into the game an Ork ship crashes directly on top of your marine's tiny head, permanently killing him. You then go into character creation for your new Ork, which is what you actually play as.

Even Vermintide didn't do that for me. It was a fun game but I hit the upper echelons of the gear grind and said "okay that's enough". But here I've just kept going because goddamnit this is how a WH40k game should feel.

One the funniest moments in gaming is the character creator in the intro to Metal Geard Solid V.

Yes I know it gets used for the online portion but it's still very funny to include it in the single player part.

It also gets used in the ending, by which time you probably forgot you even made a character at the start.

Depends on the inquisitor. Certain radical leaning inquisitors even use daemons, heretech and xenos technology in the defence of the imperium, while other more conservative ones would shoot you just for being abhuman.

im definitely hoping they add cool and significantly different new character classes, but considering that would involve either

1. recording new banter voice lines for every single personality/gender combo
2. having significantly less new dialog for the characters and being lame

ive got my fatshark doubts, especially considering they never added another member to the Ubersreik Five which would've been infinitely less voicework (though still a lot)

Semantically, "you" is both singular and plural, though syntactically it is always plural. It always takes a verb form that originally marked the word as plural.

Also, there is no plural when the context is an argument with an individual rather than a group. Somfin shouldn't put words in my mouth.
The only option for a Space Marine tide game would be versus Orks (I know, Tyranids are a thing but gently caress them, give me SHOOTAZ AND BLOOD AN’ TEEF)

For real though, give me a space marine chapter that plays everything 100% straight while dealing with orks with ships and jet packs that work because they believe they work. Maybe throw in a human psyker /mechanicus magos Bellisarius Cawl type who bitches about how they’re surrounded by dogmatic idiots. Idk. Bring back that Vermintide type banter

Ork technology does work, just intermittently and with no regard to the users' safety :colbert:

For real though, any -tide style game would probably just be made worse by marines as far as the personalities of the characters go. There are so many other more interesting and unused options out there it's insane.

e: Chaos Space Marines would be okay. Preferable, even.

ee: If we really wanna do loyalists then Sisters of Battle would be infinitely more interesting than Space Marines in a -tide game.
