So I guess pre-ordering doesn't get you into the beta?

I'm surprised how solid the Stingray Engine is. Really good use of shader effects and more importantly it has TXAA out of the box. I might hate jaggies more than rats add me for rat stomping: http://steamcommunity.com/id/stanleypain

WTB Dwarf only DLC Keg. The Dwarf carries a Keg on his back which he can plop down and everyone can drink from. Acts as a healing potion but also gets you drunk and blurs your screen.

Jimbot posted:Kind of wish they'd remove the bits that prevent you from going backwards on the map. More than one occasion we had a member get caught by that one rat guy and pulled away practically as they were moving off that fall or ramp or whatever have you. Since the rest of the team was already off it, they couldn't do anything to save the person. Those two elements don't gel well together. Working as intended.

BombiTheZombie posted:As far as i know the cursed die work the same way the Ranald's Blessing trinket works, just makes it less likely that you will find supplies in chests and spawnpoints. The tome/grim/cursed die mechanic is great and allows for a certain amount of choice when it comes to difficulty, but even if you run a straight out no grims/tomes map, you can still get dunked by the RNG spawning everything it has in one big blob. You say this like it's a bad thing.

CJ posted:I can understand zombies because apparently there are a whole lot of nerds who get really excited at the idea of butchering animated corpses, but i've never heard of someone wanting to kill an army of rat men. It just strikes me as a really bizarre theme to go with in terms of getting people excited to play your game. Are you trolling or just being willfully ignorant?

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. It's a bit of a nonsensical argument though. I could turn around and say that a zombie shooter would be much better if it had dogs, and cats, and cars, and was more of an open world RPG instead of a zombie shooter. Or like you didn't get to play an Orc, or a Dick Elf in the game Space Marine, because you were too busy being a Space Marine. This game is called Vermintide, it set in a particular time within the Warhammer Fantasy world where Skaven are loving poo poo up. That's why there are so many rats.

Fans posted:Having played the Elf last night using the SIngle Sword weapon, I must sadly announce the Elf is good and everyone is terrible for disliking them. It's a murder machine. Yeah the single sword is pretty drat good. Really great at single target , small aoe cone damage. Overhand swings also have the added effect of chopping things into smaller things ><

Stop being anti-social butt wads. Stop playing with the unwashed masses. Start getting into mumble, irc, steamchat, or sending smoke signals to goons to play fun game with friends. If you have a bad online experience you're the only person to blame

I really hated the elf until I started playing her more. She's really good at dealing with certain specials. You just have to remember you have gently caress all for AOE damage for the most part. You also have to be decent at aiming both with the bow and your swords/daggers.

Coolguye posted:This was the primary complaint that I dropped while filling out the beta feedback form. The game works fine, but the special spawns are out of control. There needs to be a global cap on them or something. No there doesn't. Part of the charm is that sometimes you just get hosed.

Gimnbo posted:If the missions weren't at least a half hour investment I'd be more okay with random acts of fuckery. As it is, having 20 minutes of progress go to waste because you rolled a 1 on the bullshit die is incredibly frustrating to me. I guess it depends on what your definition of fun is. This isn't a game about fairness. I find a good part of the charm for me is knowing that just around the corner can be a death.

Coolguye posted:I don't even get what the gently caress you're talking about here. We were talking about checkpoints for dying, such as in Left 4 Dead. If you alt-f4 that game you're starting at the most recent campaign map (checkpoint), or, more likely, the start of the campaign. There's no way you are not losing time by dying, the question is how much. A quick restart to 5 minutes ago is entirely different to a 90 second restart to 30 minutes ago. You sound more like you're not in favor of host migration here. Yeah, having no say in a death is exactly the point at times. It's very much what gives this game a lot of its atmosfear ( ) Host migration and checkpoints aren't exactly the same thing. Yes, internally they might be checkpoint saving your progress for host migration, but outside of that instance I don't want a progression checkpoint system. This goes back to my first point being a good portion of the charm of this game is the sudden death scenario. It adds a bit of urgency to everything too. You don't like it that's fine, but I think you're in the minority here.

Man, all these cry babies crying about how some things are "unfair" in this game. Git Gud Scrubs. If you're losing a run on normal the problem isn't the game it's you. Or you're playing with randoms which is even more your fault then just being bad . The peeps I play with (who carry the everloving gently caress out of me ) might wipe maybe 1/10 times on hard? Over the weekend with Lewtt I think we played like all day just running Hard Horn and didn't wipe once. Nightmare probably 3/10. Looking forward to getting better and getting Cataclysm runs on farm status. One thing that is really pissing me off about this game is that before any patches it ran flawlessly and now it's a crap shoot on how many times I need to reload the game to get it stable. Also something with the netcode makes enemies show up in incorrect locations for me. Like I'll try to move and be "stuck" with nothing around me and a second later there's 10 rats around me and I'm dead. This doesn't happen when I host, but happens often when someone else is hosting and has gotten progressively worse as the game's been patched up. Can't wait for launch today!

The best place for Horn is on top of the horn platform. You can see stuff coming from both sides and you just need one person to check to make sure nothing has dropped in behind you.

Anything that moves the game away from being able to min/max any given situation because you can guess to within a very good probability what's going to spawn/happen is OK with me. If that means the game is "swingy" as heck I'm all for it. I don't want the game to devolve into Entering Area A move to corner B, wait 30 seconds for X or Y to spawn, blah blah blah blah..

Elpato posted:Thanks for the responses, fellas. Can anyone tell me if the trueshot arrow pierces targets on the way to its locked target? Am i getting the right idea to target a dude at the back of the pack to get some multishots in? I'm not a big fan of the TrueFlight arrows mainly because I can't control exactly how and what I want to shoot/pierce. They also have a tendency to have wide arcs when you shoot them which becomes a huge problem in nightmare. Hitting all 3 of your teammates because the arrow decided to go a round about way to your target really sucks. Learn to love the standard longbow

Yeah, it's one thing to run an exploit a few times just to game the system a bit. That's pretty normal human behavior. It's a completely different thing to run something for 16+ hours because your need for loot or something far exceeds your ability to have fun . I pine for the days of playing games for fun.

It's pretty easy to spot when a group is going to get dunked or not. Ask them to stick together, and when you hit your first horde/ambush take a look at what they do. If you end up naturally creating a murderball things will probably go smoothly. If they're all over the loving place, press ESC and move on .
