Even if the prices are reasonable I hope all the people screaming bloody murder about the cash shop does get them to reconsider and change it, because a buy what you want when you want to cash shop thats not tied to unwieldy bundles of premium currency would be better for the game. Also lots of attention being placed on the 5 weapons missing from the roster, but I think the bigger omission of this just being an early access drop is not having any finale mission. e: Oh is the fluff lore the weapons used to have still around anywhere in game, it seems like the new stats screen replaced it.

On the subject of a final mission it is weird that there is no mission/story progression and everything is just unlocked, as far as i can tell, randomly on the mission board.

I suppose having the weapons peddler be further away than the Premium Cosmetics vendor is an acceptable tradeoff since they could have easily made the FOMO invade your mind during character selection. The new Throne tileset feels kinda off, lots of empty spaces and enemy spawns are so far away from the route that you just gun 'em down easily. Guess I'll see how it plays on Damnation once my crew is up for it.

The difficulty in general seems to be off/have been tweaked some, at least from what I've been seeing. 3 plays like 2 and 4 plays like 3 did in the pre-order period.

It's me I'm the psyker that took until level 15 to find out that Quelling while in brainpop mode does in fact not cost health, like V2 venting. I thought you could only quell without losing HP by quelling on a force sword or staff, so i kept doing this brainpops => switch to staff to quell => brainpops loop. Sure is a lot easier this way.

drat Dirty Ape posted:Are randoms in this game generally chill? I never really played vermintide 1 or 2 and I have weird online social anxiety but drat does this game look cool. Honestly most of the people in voice have been massive warhammer nerds (in a good way, not a smug way) and a lot of fun. It’s been pleasantly surprising. And like one of the other goons said, there’s no penalty on bailing on shitters should you happen to find one. There’s always the goon discord, too. Every goon but one I’ve played with has been super chill (and I get the feeling that the one that wasn’t just wasn’t having a good day, not that that was situation normal for them).

Thanks to trying to run for that "don't ever get hit in melee" penance I barely noticed the toughness changes anyway so I was just running malice last night. Definitely got one shot when i tried a 5 game.

Been playing all day, for all its problems including 3-4 crashes mid game for me, it's been quite fun. Enjoying Ogryn with shield quite a bit and got to level 15.

There is literally a chaos spawn referenced and shown multiple times in the intro movie movie that plays every time you start the game and that didn't make it in. Just like, a ton of "why didn't this make it in?" on display. Like, they basically could of just dropped it in from Vermintide unaltered.

Whenever I get a multi-ogryn party they are happy to do silly text RP (WE'LL PROTECT YA BOSS). I have had a few weird whiners and racist/sexist trolls. There's a vote kick option you can use in the social menu but it's kind of hard to get that going and have everyone be able to click the yes/no pop up when you're continuously assaulted by enemies. There's also a block function that says it prevents matchmaking, but you have to remember to do it before you leave the game because you might not see the same player in the Mourningstar after the mission, and the "previous missions" social menu does not appear to function properly.

Entirely fair. For my part I've only had good interactions in the pre-order period and release. Some people hop on voice after I do to ask someone to please grab a medkit or something like that, some people start using chat more but even on lost matches everyone is typically chill. There was a lot of back and forth outside SA of "Why on earth would they say the scoreboard would make people toxic I've never seen that in XXX hours of VT2" and I actually saw it several times in just 90-ish hours of VT2 but so far in Darktide I haven't seen a single person being lovely aside from a couple extremely gamer names.

Just like, a ton of "why didn't this make it in?" on display. I still suspect they have a drip feed roadmap. I doubt the chaos spawn was unimplemetably broken or that that they just forgot that their main trailer includes one. I just think that "full release" was an arbitrary line in the sand for "beyond this date, we won't do any significant resets". Crafting isn't fully implemented, there's a bunch of closed doors on the ship, etc. It'd be dumb to make it DLC, but I get it on the drip feed. As much as players act like they're being robbed, "hey there's a new thing" gets them coming back.

I'm happy to report that game still works just fine on my deck, just like though beta. Well, other than a weird minor graphical glitch I was getting, but I think it's because I didn't turn volumetric fog off. Meaty-Lumpkins is having a great time smashing the littles.

My only level 30 is a vet, I feel like a liability to my teamates right now thanks to this toughness bug. One or two hits from regular zombies literally chunks my HP through my toughness. I went back to the plasma rifle from the XII. I got a bad roll on the XII and with its garbage stability it jumps a lot whiles ADS'ing.

Im sad to say Power Sword seems to have been toned down a bit. You can no longer sweep through just anything with the secondary skill active, it gets stuck in about 8-9 poxwalkers or 4-5 of the helmeted guys with machetes. This is on Heresy difficulty so might just be that they beefed up Heresy enemies. Still the best weapon out there but it no longer cuts through anything like a hot knife through butter.
