I generally try to avoid going all babymode and turning friendly fire off but holy poo poo it's almost mandatory if you have a buddy using the mace. The AOE on that thing is insane.

Is there any news when this game is going to be ported over to Xbone and PS4?

I hope the devs didn't abandon this If they managed to add in all the weapons into MP, add in some kind of random map generator/horde mode setting I'd be really happy.

And I spend the vast majority of my time on the forums among a sub-group that predominately hangs out in Traditional Games playing Post by Post games from Fantasy Flight's now defunct Warhammer 40k tabletop RPG series. You'd have thought we'd all have loved it, but the weak campaign story and troublesome AI killed most of their desire to do it multiplayer.

I think this game ended up polarizing a lot of people. Namely due to a lot of people thinking this was going to be a L4D/Vermintide type game instead of actually being a pretty true Space Hulk game. Throw in some pretty bad technical issues during the first week made a lot of people straight up quit the game. The reason I really enjoyed it was that it really played out like a Space Hulk game, especially on the hardest 2 difficulties.

The only active dark heresy 2 games are roll20/discord ones. We've got a few Black Crusade games (two of which are mine, one of which has been going for almost 4 years), a Deathwatch, a dark heresy 1.0 and a rogue trader one. I'll provide links this evening when I'm not on mobile.

I remember tweeting the devs asking "Yo is this going to be like a mission-based co-op in the vein of L4D/Vermintide/Payday, or is it going to be a base single-player type linear campaign that your friends can join?" In return, they sent me a message along the lines of "Wait and see ." And I was like "No really, about four purchases depend on us knowing how the hell the game is supposed to work." I still don't know how the co-op is supposed to work.

It's a slower paced left4dead with no randomized items / objectives. The difference is it's a lot more satisfying to mow down hordes of enemies. Flip a coin if you'll like it, I enjoyed the hell out of it. There should be a new content patch coming out soonish that should improve it so if you are seriously still considering it I'd wait for that.

I just built a new computer with a 500GB SSD system hard drive. Haven't installed any games on it yet, but I'm tempted. The difference, indeed, is like day and night - brand new Windows ionstall, a beefy processor, and an SSD? I've had farts that lasted longer than the bootup sequence on this thing.

Pretty fun but it gets artificially tense because of derpy ally AI, having to micromanage your squadmates, especially the medic during intense combat is a constant hassle.

I have a "reasonable" computer and I can and always have been able to max the game out. YMMV.

So im pulling the trigger on this, i watched a youtube archive of Zoran the Bear playing it, and god drat its the most 40k game ive ever seen. Makes me want to crush genestealers with my POWER MACE. Looks like a methodical slow L4d, in all the good ways.

Honestly, I'd enjoy the SP campaign more if I could swap perspective to my sidekicks. Once in a while I just want to use an assault cannon without crippling my ability to kill distant ranged fuckers.

I just got this and it looks like the bugs/performance issues have been patched out, thankfully... I'm trying to play through on no mercy difficulty and it's actually hard like the boardgame... gently caress up and you're dead. What are some good loadouts for your squad on the hardest difficulty? Assault cannon seems too innacurate at range, can't decide what to put on the assault marine... heard thunderhammer is good eventually, for now (I'm on the second mission) I can't decide between lightning claws/storm bolter/assault cannon. Also, anyone ever still play coop for this? Would be fun.

Added you guys, maybe we can get a game going next Wednesday or Thursday? Any time afternoon/early evening are good for me, I'm in mountain time. How does the game play on no mercy/friendly fire on/codex rules? Never tried the MP but that seems the most authentic. Finished the campaign yesterday, last mission was brutal... I found the key to no mercy difficulty was spamming the poo poo out of the psi powers, that warp vortex spell is insane.

I'll have to reinstall this and knock the rust off. I recall I usually left the Apothecary on the default Storm Bolter, because he loses the ability to heal if he switches.

That's why they need an Imperial Fists DLC, where instead of needing a Narthecum the medic heals you by calling you a wimp and telling you to suck it up.

I guess it depends on what made it "poo poo" for you. It's still the same game it was but with more weapons/skill choices for classes. If you didn't like the core gameplay I doubt you'd enjoy it now.

Lack of actual objectives and things to do on the huge maps and brain dead squad AI are my biggest complaints probably. Performance was really spotty too.

First up, there is in-game text chat, I think it's bound to "y" iirc. I bring this up because it's not loving listed in the keybindings, and running the game silent is an exercise in insanity. Second up, voice chat isn't included in the game. Out of laziness, I set up a quick discord group. Here's a permanent link: https://discord.gg/E79FpG7. I recommend downloading the app (because the web version doesn't really play well with full-screen games). If you prefer Teamspeak or something, speak up. I'm just going the path of least Third, even if you don't have a mic, drop into discord (web version is fine) for the text channel. I find it helpful for getting things started. https://discord.gg/E79FpG7 Finally, patch notes: Update 6 posted:Today's patch focuses on additional gameplay variety, as well as fully introducing the Special Missions mode to singleplayer and multiplayer.

ChickenHeart posted:Cool, now to somehow convince the poor bastards on my friend's list with this game to install again. Yeah. I burned a lot of bridges with friends (rabid 40k fans none the less) when I talked a bunch of them into buying this game around launch and they were Horribly disappointed. I've been trying to talk some of them into giving it another try now that it is patched, but not much luck. An important lesson that your game has to be near right at launch, because often times you only get one shot and first impressions matter.

Got a couple games in with LordSloth last night. Burning genestealers are so pretty. Can't wait for a full goon team. The new multiplayer mode, where you select a preexisting map and the game gives you random objectives one after the other is nice for adding a little variety. The game totally needs a roguelike style random hulk generator.
