KazigluBey posted:Thank you. I think the choice of having alternate voices for each character was a bad one. The actual voice lines for each character are pretty good, but with multiple voice actors per character I cant tell if a voice is coming from the Zealot or the Psyker because theyre both yelling about insane poo poo.

Al-Saqr posted:I'm really wierded out by how many game ending crashes I've been experiencing from Vermintide 2, much more than the Darktide beta. super wierd. Give the EAC Setup in the V2 directory a shot, there's a repair install option. 95% of the time if V2 starts crashing randomly when it didnt before, its EAC.

Apparently the beta was logging stuff about missing fx for Daemonhost and Beasts of Nurgle. I'm guessing Beasts will be a Monster alternate (like plague ogryns) but lorewise Daemonhosts seem like a big power jump.

Pennsylvanian posted:Playing VT2 again and then watching Darktide footage let me notice that specials seem to be a bit finer tuned. The thing I hated most about VT2 was probably special enemies like Blightstormers who could ruin runs with bullshit. I just remembered less of that sort of thing in the Darktide beta. I think you could even deflect Pox Hounds' leap attacks if you were blocking.

Phlegmish posted:Oof. I'll be playing with an RTX 3070, hope that's enough get a decent frame rate on the higher settings. Aside from performance isssues in beta which, it's going to be a very cpu-heavy game. I have an i7700k with a 3070 and it ran like absolute dogshit (40ish FPS @ 1080p on low/medium settings), I'm hoping the preorder beta will alleviate my concerns a bit. For me personally it ran worse than v2, but there's people with substantially worse setups that had better performance, so who knows what's going on. It also has that thing like V2 where one of the lighting settings is crucial to having some depth in the environment, because without it all the maps look like globally lit Quake 2 maps.

That performance blog is worth the read, lotta detail on which settings impact what - which for a cpu-bottlenecked system like mine is handy to know Unfortunately no details on worker thread setting, I know what it says its supposed to do, but it seems like experiences vary wildly on whether you should increase or decrease it depending on how many cores you have and what the setting is at. Should it match physical cores? Less?

Zephro posted:Hm, OK. Maybe Gamepass is a good shout. Or I guess I can just refund it on Steam. Maybe the release version will be better optimised, too... Have you considered Geforce now? If you have a good internet connection and if you can deal with the input latency, its a good option if you cant get it to run locally in any decent way.

field balm posted:Maybe the wrong thread, but is there a way to make steam start downloading something when it goes live or am I gonna have to get up at 5am to manually start it downloading? The easiest trick if you dont wanna gently caress with the app is to simply make a run-once windows task to start steam sometime shortly after the game is supposed to release, and shut Steam down beforehand making sure automatic downloads are enabled in settings. That is all assuming you have steam set to autologin and such

This runs surprisingly well. Like its not butter smooth but its more than playable, using the last Nvidia drivers with a 3070 and i7700k. No raytracing or DLSS Also which female voice for the zealot is it that does the "for the master of mankind!" line on ult, is it Agitator?

explosivo posted:Anyone know if it's possible to change stuff like your face or voice after making a character? My dude looks weird in a way that I didn't intend to and think I would prefer a different voice. I can just make a new guy since i'm still so early on but didn't know if something opened up to let you customize that stuff eventually. Theres a barber/chirurgeon in the hub but it doesn't seem to be active in beta, so I'm guessing yes, but not right now

big cummers ONLY posted:If anyone has more tips like this... help. I don't need it to look good but my framerate is straight chunky. Not gonna be able to afford pc upgrades for like... years. Without knowing what your system is like I'm gonna assume you're being cpu bottlenecked Start by deleting appdata\roaming\fatshark\darktide ; in case any weird beta settings are carrying over.Remember to disable ray tracing and set worker threads in the launcher before first launch as well. Turning down the CPU heavy settings mentioned in the performance guide, and setting worker threads to 4 on my 4-core i7700k + 3070 either did the trick or they optimized beta because it runs "ok" now on mixed medium/high (gpu-only settings). Big hordes will still drop framerate but its not near as chunky as it was in beta for me. Did about a dozen missions now with only one CTD but my buddy is getting crashes pretty often. Also Ogryn seems to be by far the least popular choice rn, everybody wants to roleplay a krieg guardsman or space wizard

Zealots skills are either bugged or got changed and their tooltips not updated - his ult only recharges 50% toughness instead of 100%, and the "regen toughness around enemies in melee range" trait seems to not work a lot of the time

Abroham Lincoln posted:I don’t remember it particularly from beta but the actual manual quelling is slower or equal to just letting it drain passively, it’s really bizarre. They increased a lot of the peril costs for stuff because they were apparently not happy with how pop-happy psykers got in CBeta and are trying to get them to also actually use guns or melee, but the pendulum seems to have swung too hard in the other direction

Ciaphas posted:Easy to pick out? I can’t hear anything like that except for the hound, wtf? Flamers sound like an igniting gasrange, bombers have a ping from a grenade pin being pulled and will shout lines like "bomber advancing" , Trappers have female voiced callouts about selling you, and some jingling of chains. Theyre not as in your face as in V2 but after a while you can pick em out. After getting tired of pubbies ignoring specials I tried veteran and I gotta say - space CoD is a lot of fun.

Its kind of crazy how much of a difference in performance turning off Steam overlay has, goddamn. Does anyone else, regardless of other performance, have massively worse performance on the scanning map? That scanning objective is a real drag to do with clueless pubbies too.

Yeah I'm not a fan of them taking the "low hp = more damage" trait from V2. Like I get what theyre going for but it just invites lovely behavior and minmaxing weebs getting upset that someone heals them. I am really enjoying the Kantrael Lasgun a lot on vet. Just enough pop to take care of specials but not a total dumpster fire rate. A lot of pubbies make vet seem super squishy and terrible but I'm surprised at how fun he actually is.

3 Vet + Psyker on a blackout mission on malice+ felt like an actual survival horror game. Popping vet ults in series to mark stuff ahead in the fog, slowly moving so you dont get crumped by corner-ragers.
