Fatshark relegating important information to patchnotes and blog posts and never providing ingame tool tips for new features has been their MO since Vermintide 1. There's a reason that mods giving you a better info breakdown are so popular.

you say that but every player, new and old, somehow manages to skip past the pop up box that explains how to make extra loadouts in Darktide.

i think the item quality information isn't that big a deal to know about, they're a bonus and mostly only good for an occasional t4 blessing. Actual weapon stat and attack breakdowns exist now and weren't originally a thing on release after all!

That said a glossary of in game terms would be cool to have somewhere in the menus, I'm def a big fan of all important information being available in game to read and that is a big one.

I'm now back to crashing more than at launch. Played 2 games this morning and I think I crashed 8 times? Loving it

the first question would be: are you using mods? If yes, turn them off and try again, assuming you haven't already


the second: have you tried verifying file integrity to see if there any corrupt files? A few goons ran into this on the discord.

third: is your graphics card driver up to date? I had an issue with crashing occasionally until i update my drivers, it happens pretty consistently every time i get a driver update i let languish.

idk what platform you're using or what rig you have but i haven't heard anyone mentioning they've started crashing a lot more. There's also an issue in the new level where the game gets eeird lag consistently for everyone in the mission in a certain spot.

HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE DEAD, MOTHERFUCKER?

Evil Kit posted:


grims are still not worth it except as a way to restore a wound tho

How does grim restore wound? Do you gain health from the corruption removed by banishing? I honestly haven't picked up a grim since launch since they were never worth it.

No, you don't gain white health (unless you then get healed by a medkit). It "restores a wound" in the sense that it lets you get knocked down an additional time without dying.

what Megan said, it used to be the only way to heal corruption past the wound threshold. When you break a grim it heals a flat amount of corruption, which if you pick it up and break it immediately is enough to get you an extra down back, though it's not enough to get an entire wound bar.

Now of course healing stimm exists so eh, even more niche.

Funny enough, it started happening _after_ I updated my geforce drivers for the first time in a while. Disabled mods, verified integrity, started it up - had the worst crash yet (trying to view contracts at melk)

Oh well.

a number of goons including myself have crashed when opening melks shop (i dont use mods), i think it's a known issue at this point. It only happens occasionally and isn't consistent, will probably get hotfixed.

I had the crash at Melk's the first time visiting him after the patch and none of the times I visited him after that. I'm guessing it was a shader compilation thing? :shrug:

Sep 13, 2005



I crashed once visiting melks last night.

Something I need to try and record maybe is post-patch I'm having the plasma gun sometimes not shoot with sound and everything. Like the animation plays of a non-charged shot going off but it's like I fired a blank. This was in mission, I think I'll see if I can replicate it in the psykanium. But anyone know what I'm talking about?

Plasma issues probably a side effect of them trying to make it so charge doesn't effect its damage.

After every patch the game is super stuttery for me until Ive played a game or two. I assume it's shader cache related.

Zola is a local from Atoma right? I'm wondering if her hiding something isn't a genestealer bit but that she was part of a hive gang that eventually turned traitor and she got out.

Evil Kit

she didn't go into hiding, she deployed on a mission maybe without permission(?), presumably to go get revenge on someone. Sounds like someone in the dreg gang who will potentially be a new assassination boss. A dreg assassination would be cool.


Zola might be a former ganger though that is true, not uncommon to have happen.

I didn't mean she went into hiding. The psyker who talks to his Beloved mentions that Zola is hiding something from herself and she doesn't know it. I'm thinking her obsession with Wolfer and the Karnak twins is more personal than professional and there was more going on during the prison ship boarding than we first realized.

Grab the bullshit by the horns

Anyone else having a problem with the first hit of the new eviscerator hanging sometimes? It feels like it randomly hangs for about a second, leading to me getting hit way more than I intend. It happens with light, heavy, revved, unrevved.

I solo'd a daemonhost just by parrying it with my Devil's Claw last night. Sorry for the stupid brag, but goddamn that was an exhilarating gaming moment. It was only Heresy difficulty, not sure if such a thing would be possible on Damnation.

I played a few games with it and didn't notice a problem like this. It's a slower weapon than I prefer, but the left click spam for horde clearing is excellent.

Yes, I have noticed that and I recall someone else mentioning it in the thread when it was first released.

Probably interpolation, your client received data on the dog leaping and sent data on your damage to the dog at the same time, then the server sent the data that the dog was dead after the leap was animating

Forgot to check Melk this week for my Zealot, and he delivered me this.



I have no idea what to make of it. It "clears" the horde by knocking everything to the ground with its light attack string, except monstrosities and bulwarks. Bulwarks got down with a special attack. Sadly, most of the time they get back up, but it is pretty funny holding w and spamming m1 and knocking groups of ragers and maulers onto the ground.

The crusher is great for knocking things around, and kinda hard to search for because of the enemy named the same thing. For hordes, you can spam light -> heavy, and either just keep repeating that, or do a block reset afterward to get the flat trajectory on that first light again. Heavy -> light gets you overheads for single targets. And if you can land headshots despite its awkward trajectory, the push attack is really good too.

It's a weapon with a small blessing pool, and only one damage blessing (Skullcrusher), so if you're vibing with the weapon it's worth fishing for that.

did ogryn weeklies, the change to the achlys stubber is so fuckin good and along with the new folding shovel they've both replaced my trench raider build's OG shovel and ripper gun. new shovel synergizes better with heavy melee spam skills and is an absolute maniac killer that pops ragers and mutants with a headshot; achyls cant pierce armor but foldy takes care of that and now i can clear shooters much, much better while retaining enough accuracy to take out snipers or at least keep them down

The kickback is still my favourite Ogryn secondary, you can swap to it really quickly and delete any special or disabler at close-medium range. Even snipers at long range usually die in two shots.

If I'm not first in specials/disablers kills I'm tied with the first or really close second.

Disablers are obviously important targets, but when I'm on Ogryn elite shooters are a huge priority as well. I get really frustrated when I swap off my vet and it feels like no one is taking them down instantly like I would be if I had my plasma.
