No, I swear I've seen a speedloading animation as well. I imagine the reloading 1 chamber at a time animation would be a pain in the rear end to speed up or slow down, so do you get a speedload animation when you've got some kind of temporary reload buff?

Anyone running darktide with a rx 66xx card that can share performance? Getting one of them for new card and wondering which option will be better on a 1440p display.

I could of swore there was a ogryn heavy bolter or autocannon on that trailer. It had that sweep out handle like the ripper and heavy stubber but it was explicitly not either of those. Wrong fire rate and sound for a ripper gun too, too slow and chunky.

It's a full auto, slow RoF ripper gun which I don't believe we've seen at least. Either that or they're just cutting a three round burst from a Ripper oddly.

Most of the stage was in one of milkandcookies's videos. Timestamped to the pillar room:

It also has the ruined hangar you see briefly in the trailer.

It's a stage that wasn't in the beta.

Also endless hoard is way too frequent for how much more difficult it makes the levels.

Does quickplay favor endless hoard or is it just my rng? There were 2 or 3 malice missions available last night but all five of my runs were endless hoard water supply.

I was expecting to hate that modifier after how much the VT2 maps that featured darkness sucked.

Holy poo poo I *loved* Lights Out. The ambient lighting in the environment, the glow of poxwalker eyes, the tenseness of not wanting to stumble across an unexpected daemonhost, it made an amazing experience. We only had one guy with a torch on his gun and one zealot who was generating light by repeatedly activating his thunder hammer. Really looking forward to it coming back.

Did I hallucinate or was it the forces of Chaos that have given me these heretical thoughts, but I swore that there was some discussion about modifying guns with things like sights.

Is that a real thing, or are some of the guns just going to have dog poo poo iron sights forever?

Huh, I stand corrected then.

I think I would be a lot happier with the ripper if it had like 22-25 shots a mag and didn't default to burst fire. It spends entirely too long reloading for the amount of shots you get on it, and burst fire default means there's usually a lot of wasted shots anyway.

Like, the stubber also takes an eternity to reload, but you're getting like 120+shots per go and it can keep on going for way longer than it has a right to.

Still want my ogryn power maul though. It's in the ogryn trailer give it to me.

The first map I played with it was the smelter map and the glow of the burning slag against the darkness was incredible.

It is not currently a thing, according to a CM it’s on the table for the future.

I certainly won't argue that abusing this will make things easier, but based on my experience in endless horde diff 4 it's not gonna save you when you are getting swarmed by muties and snipers with fire all over the ground during a horde.

Has anyone tried the Brunt in diff 4/5 after it got adjusted? I'm wondering if it'll be nice for heavy bleed cleaving.

Yes, when you compare something to the single hardest hitting melee weapon in the game it comes up short.

Ogryn biggest strength has always been control more so than raw damage. It's not that his weapons do bad damage (and the club / shovels overhead chop does actually hit really hard) its that he does way more stagger and stun than anyone else and his weapons skew towards big wide sweeps that bowl over lots of dudes. It's less impressive in difficulty 2 and lower intensity diff 3 because the hordes are thinner and you can still one shot a lot of threats. It becomes way more important in difficulty 4 and 5 when you've got like 5 ragers running at you that you can't just headpop / eviscerate anymore that you really start appreciating Bonk the ogryn administering slaps and making the bad men have a sit down for 5 seconds.

I probably have 40+ hours between the Zealot and the Ogryn, so you're not telling me anything I don't already know. The Thunderhammer is extremely underwhelming and if the Ogryn never gets anything that does any better, that is going to be a sad day. The Zealot is always going to swing a lot faster, but IMO it would be okay to give the Ogryn something slow and meaty.

Broken Cog

We're all friends here
To add to that, I would like to stress that the special attack for most of Ogryns' melee weapons (sans the shield) always staggers Maulers and Ragers.

Also, it feels great just punching a rager in the face and watching them fall backwards.

Honestly they should just let the Orgyn wield most 2h weapons as a 1h. Maybe throw in a lvl 30 perk that lets you do that and carry the shield at the same time.

Why yes I want a chain broadsword and shield ogryn, why do you ask?

The Zealot is always going to swing a lot faster, but IMO it would be okay to give the Ogryn something slow and meaty.

I love the ogryn shovel though. It's got a good wide sweep light>heavy combo, and the first step of the heavy combo is a overhead chop that stoves in people brains and generally does hit super hard. And as mentioned the various slaps and punches the ogryn weapons do will absolutely lay out anything not a crusher. You get to play Mike Tyson's punch-out as Mike.

I don't know how people hate the thunder hammer, it's a VT2 Warhammer (which was already my favorite weapon) with a giant gently caress off super hit on single target. The one negative about it compared to the eviscerator is that the Charged attack cant pick maulers and ragers out of crowds like the Charged eviscerator can.
