Are the missions actually procedural? I remember hearing about that and thinking "hahaha no loving way".

I really like the soldiers repeater gun, it seems to occasionally go through two rats, killing both! Aside from that the shield is ridiculously good and I got through the entirety of the horn of magnuses onslaught part without taking damage. Threw my bomb on the first swarm, shot most coming up the stairs and when I got swarmed i'd just bash with the shield, gives you more breathing room than you need. Also if a ratling gunner is aiming at you and a load of rats are running in the way, just block, he'll kill them all and have to reload before he breaks your shield.

Playing this game has let me know my processor is definitely dying, as it lags on my I5-4670k. I've got friends with way slower CPU's that can run it fine. Time to shell out for a new processor I guess

Someone help me out here. I have an I5-3670k 3.4GHz I have 16gb of ram I have a Geforce GTX 660 This isn't amazing, I know, but their min spec is: Processor: Intel Core2 Quad Q9500 @ 2.83GHz or AMD Phenom II X4 940 Memory: 6 GB RAM Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 or AMD Radeon HD 5770 /w 1GB VRAM Why the gently caress can I not run this without it lagging like crazy on medium (i've not tried low yet)? I even turned down a bunch of the usual suspects when it comes to the settings. The optimisation seems really poor which is a shame, because I like this game a whole bunch and the games I did play with my friends despite the stuttering was fantastic.

Posting this because its dumb and i'm kind of laughing at myself. My CPU fan had died so my CPU set its clock rate way down to try and deal with it. I've fixed the fan and set it back up and the game runs fine now. My bad, game is fun.

I just wish pubbies would watch your back if you're on the stairs. I have no idea how "Me and the Dwarf have the stairs, please stay right behind us and keep things off our backs" is interpreted as "ignore everyone else and hack at the stairs" within 10 seconds of the wave starting.

Dezztroy posted:Not the case at all. All melee weapons will do more damage with hits to the head. Probably same with ranged, not sure about that. Things with armour generally don't have armoured heads. Things with headshot tend to kill instantly if they hit a head.

I used to have real trouble beating that horn finale until I used the potion of speed trick. Even if a gasser pops down he just lobs it at the entrance of the stairs and then everyone unloads on the stairs until its definitely dead, so its fine.

CJ posted:I agree that zombies are boring and played out, but you can't deny that there's a sizable population that are into the zombie apocalypse fantasy who will buy games that have zombies in them, it has an inbuilt audience. You can't say the same thing for the rat killing fantasy. I think the idea of making a left 4 dead style game in a fantasy setting is good, and the random loot is a cool idea to keep it interesting. I just think a large problem with this type of game is that it gets pretty repetitive, and having every enemy be a rat doesn't help - even though there's some with guns and rat-ogres and stuff, they're still visually rats. I don't know that much about Warhammer lore so maybe it's great if you're a Warhammer fan, but from an outside perspective i feel it would be better to make the enemy faction the Chaos, since they had a variety of enemies like the evil knight guys, the mutant warriors, the evil mages and demons. Even if what i'm saying is completely unfounded and the rats don't get boring because they have tons of personality, i still think it's easier to sell a game where you fight lots of different stuff than a game where you fight rats, rats and more rats. Honestly, its just more lore friendly. Its like saying "Well in L4D you could have been chased by angry humans who want your supplies" or somesuch. Yeah sure, that's all well and good but that's not the point. This game is very much "we want to bring this specific enemy to the focus with as much personality as possible". Your suggestion would change that.

Probably ask them to fix the pack master clipping issue, because without that you should have enough health to deal with it that early in the level.

Tokubetsu posted:horn of magnus everything going smooth so you're like yea lets do two grimoires and as soon as you hit that rooftop bridge a rat ogre spawns with a ratling gunner and gutterrunner And then your brightwizard uses whatever staff gives them the bolts to throw instantly kills the gunner and the gutter runner right? That's generally why my friends like me playing the wizard, specials die the moment they come into range.

Tokubetsu posted:I like every staff but the bolt one. I will admit that I haven't tried one since getting blue melee weapons that reduce overcharge though. So a long rear end time ago. I just prefer aoe burn everything staffs which is why im deep in love with the conflagration staff. Eh, everyone can kill swarms of rats, they're not that hard to take out. Specials are the run enders, so i'd rather specialise in taking them out. I don't like relying on other people to do so.

The AI director probably needs to be told not to throw things at you in the opening cutscene, but every video I see of people dying is because they're not delegating tasks properly. Last time I played we had a R'ogre spawn at the same time as three specials and a horde. The dwarf and the soldier alternated between tanking the r'ogre and hitting the swarm, the witch hunter was unloading into every rat in sight and the wizard was throwing bolts at specials. Hell, it even threw a patrol at us midfight and the patrol was mostly dead from a combination of crossbow bolts/staff bolts/handgun rounds before it got to us. Git gud I guess? dogstile fucked around with this message at 14:03 on Oct 24, 2015 |

Its great if you're spamming dodge while swinging. You'll dodge 90% of attacks and i've used it to avoid swarms. Almost solo'd the horn's survival part doing that.

Just had some good games with pubs, which was shocking. Accidentally pulled a stormvermin patrol in the middle of a horde and they were dead in about 10 seconds from ranged fire. Holy poo poo they need to step up those stormvermins

loving hell I don't know if people are deliberately misremembering the the first l4d had some very prominent problems with hunters spawning right next to you and zombies popping in mid air. Hell, I even see it on L4D2 and its just not as prominent. What do you care anyway? The games just giving you more targets to smash.

First time doing W&C was difficult as hell because everyone split up like morons. Second time we just tightened up and moved as a group, but it relies on you having a lot of "headshot stormvermin now" weapons. In other news, my friend now has a grudgeraker that can hold four shots and has switched from "awesome shielddwarf" to "lets pretend i'm a ranged class and steal all of the witchhunters ammo". gently caress you man, gently caress you.

I've never had a problem and I ran it three times today. e: If you mean any level, then I ran through the entire game today in a vermintide marathon (this game only takes like 4 hours to complete on normal if you're competent) and didn't have an issue either.

People playing tanks, please shield bash constantly. Don't use your damned charge attack. It knocks down rats in a huge area and you don't have to charge it. You can keep a huge group on their rear end for so long mork himself might sit on them out of boredom. Use your charge attack in emergencies only. Stop bitching you can't kill things fast enough, that's not your job.
