>>566926441 >plague marine invasions >start behind the team after the 1st objective >2nd objective is aborted, comms warn team of plague marine and to rush to extract >plague marine is tanky as hell but slow >team has to fight through hordes ahead with the plague marine on their ass
>>566926624 >they just turn around and go kill you because there are four of them, one of you, and you're nowhere near as fast as they are so you can never go on the offensive in melee
>bubotic weapons >heavy plague weapon >plague knives >power fist These are their tabletop wargear options at any rate, Fatshark is going off of Dark Heresy and I'm less familiar with that, but it's probably mostly the same list. In any case, with these ranged options a hypothetical plague marine could be tied up in melee so they can't get accurate shots off, and if you take the close range options the rejects can just outrange you. I just don't see it working well unless they also have to deal with enemy spawns at the same time, but a good team already evaporates bosses.
>>566929728 You give the PM corrupting aura, a basic melee weapon, and a long range weapon like a plasma rifle or bolter. This covers all bases and prevents the rejects from being too powerful. Give the PM access to the heretic spawn points and pathing, and it's even better. This would also be in addition to probably the equivalent of damnation level hordes
>>566929974 I still think they would have to have ogryn speed or you'd be pigeonholed into that one setup. Anyway, this is fatshark, they'd never do anything that cool.
>>566930123 Gas launcher on a cooldown could block the team from sprinting off too far. But yeah, we're going to get a battle royale before anything fun
>>566926047 Used to love Darktide but it got stale and I started playing Helldivers, now that I got most of the things should I come back to rotclick? When is skulls 2026 and new DLC?
>>566906463 >If people are still playing SM2, remember to make a /sm2/ general on May 27 Aussie/Asia time or whatever timezone equivalent for pic related. just post a code here.
If Fatshark ever gets around to making another game, it should be called Krubertide and it should be about fighting Kruber's Ironshield regiment, with playable classes such as >skaven assassin >vampire >ork >chaos marauder
>>566931671 Same. Just completed the mech warbond. It's ok. Bullet Storm is fantastic. Will come back to Darkshit as soon as we get a new class or map. Expedition was fun for about 1 and a half day.
>>566939445 >take all the fun and unique parts of your game out >that'll be 30 dollars I'm still going to buy it because fuck me but my hopes will need a driller to find.
>>566939451 I really want to use the green veteran armor with the long trench coat you get from the penances, but I hate that it only has 1 glove and shoulder pad.
>zaps only 1 elite or 1 special for 20 seconds >while on average there's like 20 elites or 10 specials on screen at once Seriously, what the fuck were they thinking?
>>566941234 You realize it only has 1 glove because the other hand is used for smoking cigarettes? The helmet that goes with it even has an Inquisition brand cigarette pack on it.
Slippery Customer should be baked into HS as a passive. Field improve should be baked into Vet as a passive. No Pushover should be baked into Ogryn as a Passive.
>>566943483 Yes. >but stealth/fotf Not as good. With stealth you are a 1 trick pony who is only good for insta killing bosses, and rest of the time you might as well not exist. And with fotf you have to sweat your ass off to not be dead weight.
It's basically Chorus >low effort, very high effectiveness
>>566935554 Maybe that’ll happen if the Tide property gets passed along to someone else. Could be a neat side mode in a more competent game. >>566939445 I didn’t like the first game that much. This one seems to be worse in most ways that matter.
>>566945617 that's probably true for Sweden but all nordic countries have conscription and if you've ever been a conscript you'll know they all smoke like chimney
>>566952063 Not really. The swedish speaking population are still finns but they speak swedish as their 1st language. And that is slowly dying out too mainly because pretty much only the very, very old finnish "swedes" people who only speak swedish. The younger generations do speak swedish too, but practically every one of them knows and speaks finnish fluently.
>>566955242 I'm the guy shitposting at him and I miss when 50% of the english speaking internet was fins and swedes now it's like 60% spics 30% SEA 10% muslims and I hate it
makes me wanna play DARKtide and kill DARKs in DARKTIDE as they come at me in TIDES
technically can't someone make a Badwin account on the forums with the same profile picture and pose as him? someone should do it and gradually post more and more blatant satire and racist dogwhistles
>people begging for fatshark to unfuck the games power levels and make it so not every game is just a crusher conga line anymore >monkey paw curls >fatshark makes crushers rare and buffs inferno staff you cannot make this shit up
>>566964865 the game is a glorified MMO at this point, I can't even be mad at shit like this anymore lt's immersion breaking and an infohack sure but then you go into a mission and it's just full of RGB colored glowing enemies that are set to fullbright=1 so it doesn't really feel good anymore to begin with
>>566964865 You could only fit this on your screen if you're playing low difficulties >>566964929 Buffed for low skill players and nerfed for high skill players
What the fuck did they do to fall damage? >rolling steel, grabbing batteries >1 wound, full toughness >toss battery from the roof of the train car down >maulers and ragers on the stairs, decide to jump down >downed from fall damage
Still haven't picked up arbite or hive scum, could I get a TLDR on them (or at least confirmation if what I think is correct)? >Arbite - tanky like ogryn with lots of CC options >Scum - glass cannon melee or mid range bullet hose
I'm a piece of shit at this game and trying to slowly level a Hive Scum after not playing since before the equipment overhaul. Who's good to watch for gameplay? I'm failing like 1 out of 4 Heresy matches and just feel like I'm shit at the game. I used to watch ChocoB, but looks like they haven't posted in awhile.
>>566973091 yeah what would make HS really a better vet is if he could use the autoguns vet could use but with more damage and infinite ammo >pickpocket nerf killed ranged builds if you're abyssmal horrid F-tier dogshit at the game it did. Anyone else was constantly swapping to melee to kill a dog, a mauler, a crusher anyway
>>566973091 >and pickpocket nerf killed all ranged builds, so no I will never understand this >all other ranged classes have to preserve ammo by switching to melee from time to time >hive scum GENERATES ammo by doing this, unlimited amounts >his ranged build is supposedly dead ???
>>566973794 You don't play ranged scum and make shit up. Your opinion is worthless. >>566974008 You need to edge at 0 magazines to make this work with weapons which struggle to kill 1 enemy in half a mag. Then you're forced to confront ranged enemies with an empty mag because fuck you. It would be a terrible build, that's why nobody does it.
>>566974008 It was a big nerf to all ranged builds because hovering around at only 10% ammo is not great for stuff like the uzis and stub pistols. Both chew threw a fuck load of ammo trying to kill enemies, especially elites. Before the nerf this wasn't an issue because even if you spent most of your mag killing a rager/mauler/shotgunner, you were instantly "refunded" the ammo once you killed it. Obviously you can just mitigate this by just taking ammo pick ups. But at that point you won't benefit from pickpocket because you won't hover around 10% or go below it. So it is a waste of a skill point. >desperado though It's a meme ability, because every hive scum worth their salt just use needle pistol because it is currently objectively Scums best ranged weapon, and also the most OP ranged weapon in the game. And using Desperado on the needle pistol is genuinely worthless.
>>566976302 I don't know how other people play hive scum but on Havoc at least you constantly have elites in melee range so it's an absolute non issue to just blast an elite with shivs between magdumping
>>566974008 >all other ranged classes have to preserve ammo by switching to melee from time to time Not the psyker, who has ranged options with literally infinite ammo >hive scum GENERATES ammo by doing this, unlimited amounts You have to actually land the kill on a build built for ranged combat, it wouldn't be so bad if it procced on any human sized ranged unit, but it doesn't, you get it from elites and specials, most of which don't even have guns and shouldn't be carrying ammunition. Even so, it's still substantially better than Survivalist.
I get why people are upset, they were sold the class on the premise that you could just blast away as much as you like and then had it taken away.
>>566979372 >I get why people are upset, they were sold the class on the premise that you could just blast away as much as you like and then had it taken away. that's fair but I think people who can't see why that's obviously OP and only a selling point for the new DLC class that will later be nerfed have no business discussing game balance. They oughta move onto the next OP class and stfu inbetween
>>566980884 Needler was always the one that was the biggest issue. But at the same time there's basically fuck all fatshark can do about it. Basically Pickpocket and Needler both basically feed into one another in a toxic combination that just breaks the game. Needler has low ammo but it doesn't care because you can kill basically every enemy with 1 dart thanks to the DoT. And when you kill an enemy in melee you just replenish all the darts and you can infinetly hover around 10% ammo. And there's no way to balance it in a sensible manner. At least I can't see one.
They already nerfed the chem toxin damage but it has fuck all effect on the gun since you can kill shit like specials and elites just as fast. And if they want to lower the TTK on Needler, they have to nerf the chem toxin damage even more but they'd probably have to cut chem toxin damage at max stacks in like half. For the needler to be balanced.
Only boss DPS was nerfed, since bosses are the only enemies who have enough health that you can stack chem toxin to max without killing it instantly. Unlike weaker enemies that have less health that die to toxin from like 2-4 stacks.
>>566983124 1% ammo replenishment per elite and specialist kill up to 20%, while that makes it look a lot like survivalist, it would solve the problem. 1% per kill is like one needle rounded up, so you would need to stay on top of your accuracy to use it well.
>>566986185 Arbites have the highest lows of all classes because no bad situation actually fucks you with your retarded toughness generation. Scum have the lowest lows because you die to embarrassing shit like poxwalkers if you make one mistake, and the highest highs because melee scum is genuinely retarded OP in havoc 40 specifically. Not a comfy class to hard carry auric with.
>>566986185 arbites is more of slow tank that has a lot of defenses and can crowd control well with his mines and his shield slam ability, the dog is also a lot of fun to use. Scum is a nimble class that relies on dodges to stay alive and can do a lot of damage or be of very good support with his aoe buff.
So as a quick recap on datamined content for the new class: >Arbites companion code updated to allow for controlling multiple companions >Transonic Sword and Knife >Powermaul P3 (Likely Arc Maul) >Powersword P3 (Likely Mars pattern power sword) >cryptic_creator_arm_attachment, some system for customizing arm attachments >Strings for Arm. Leg, Metal Color and Lens color customization >"Cryptic" being given a unique body category alongside human and ogryn, implying its animations will require unique rigging to accommodate augmetics Is there anything else I'm missing?
>try helbore >it fucking sucks I hate this. I just want a decent semi-auto lasgun that hits hard and shoots hard with good firing speed. I want to use the Kantrael mk12 but the firing speed on it is fucking abysmal, helbores is clunky as fuck with the charge system. >:( >inb4 skill issue I know
>>566990270 >I just want a decent semi-auto lasgun that hits hard and shoots hard with good firing speed. The fast firing variant of laspistol is this >but you only hold it one hand shut up
>>566989138 >Arbites companion code updated to allow for controlling multiple companions So they are gonna give him a servo-skull and a dog that can be run together? This just sounds fake. Where did this leak even come from?
>>566991296 It's kind of crazy how retarded Fatshark is
all they have to do is fix a couple gamebreaking things (inferno staff probably, the uncanny change was good) BUT AT THE SAME TIME make these old faggy unfun weapons fun give the lasguns a full auto mark to please the people who prefer this, give the slow lasgun the good breakpoints back, give ogryn shield weapons that aren't that retarded fucking shield where all you do is spam h1 (just copy arbites shields even idc), give crushers a weak spot so any weapon can have fun and function if they dodge and circle a crusher etc
now suddenly you have fun options without feeling like you need a fartcloud psyker, kraks, armor pen every fucking game
>>566992615 I just fucking wish the ILGs had more damage and better finesse modifiers on them. For fuck sakes, the fucking las PISTOLS, somehow have better fucking finesse stats. Like comparing the Kantrael Mk12 lasgun to the Kantrael mk10 laspistol. The fucking PISTOL does DOUBLE the damage against Flak on the critical weakspot compared to the lasgun. What the FUCK?
>>566993286 Optimized use, you micro manage it a lot and save a point on the dog modifier talent. But it's not really required. If you don't want to micro manage your dog, you can just take Go Get 'Em modifier. It extends the dog's leash distance and it will run around spending most of its time tackling ranged elites and specials as you go about your business.
>>566992526 It means the coding logic that controls the dog, not the dog itself. You can replace the dog with anything else and the code that controls it would be the same. The main point is that the code was changed to allow for controlling multiple companions now.
>>566993860 >>566994027 Groovy, thank you kindly. I did one uprising mission as arbite so I guess I'm something of an expert now. Also its really refreshing for the base weapons to actually feel pretty good to use, even without blessings on it.
>>567005884 The skits will just talk in various tones of binharic, all AI generated, that none of the team will acknowledge. This will save an unprecedented amount of money on voice acting. Hire me, fatshark.
Far Far West is sensory overload. There is so much shit going on. Screaming babies, squeaking ducks when I walk, chickens bawking. A bunch of constant annoying noise. Also can't tell what an enemy is half the time. Does this get better?
>>567015063 you can build for mobility and AOE which will alleviate the readability issue by just ignoring it, but then you've traded that problem for the game becoming way too easy. the grunt fantasy style of play will just get overwhelmed, you have to meet their sensory overload with the cleansing fire of screen-clearing AOE spam, ideally with the game on mute. sadly nothing you can do about randoms picking up every useless joker because haha le rubber duck noise funnie :^)
>>567023170 It feels like shit is spawning from all directions and hordes are materializing out of thin air. I wish I clipped it but there were a bunch of Moebian 21st that literally spawned right in front of me in the middle of the room.
>>567005884 I had the thought the skitarii would speak perfect english you would only understand as another skittari. Everyone else would hear binharic and just roll with. Like when chinese guys say somethin in your games but you dont speak chinese so you just reply with "yeah bro, me to"
>>567026572 >"Oy, metalface. What going to the lah-vore-ah-tor-ee like?" >[do not speak to me brutish creature. By the omnisiahs blessings, I am abov such crud disposal of waste] >"ya they that gives me stomach cramps too. You're alright, metalface!"
>>567021557 Unironically I would love a well crafted single player game that is like Alien Vs. Predator 2. Multiple story lines through the game following different characters (new baby xenomorph, human soldier, young predator) that all happen at roughly the same time. Each one has different game play, the xenomorph campaign is a stealth murder game picking off troops one at a time. The human is an FPS survival horror, seeing motion on your tracker and it being just swinging chains or something keeping you paranoid that the xenomorph is right above you. The predator is you killing humans and xenomorphs with lots of different weapons, collect skulls for health and trophies.
I want a warhammer game where we have a stealth campaign with a kommando, a guard section like the old battlefield games from the early 2000's, an SoB section that utilizes their jump packs so we can do jumps or glides around battlefield, etc. Make it all happening on the same battlefield and the characters are just missing each other. Just something that isn't space marines.
>>567039295 Whoever thought that was a reasonable form of communication deserves to be fired, blacklisted, and disqualified from all government programs.
>>566989138 I'm not convinced it's a skitarius, it's not like tech adepts or techpriests can't use the same weapons their fodder does, and the arm attachment could be a servoarm. They also wouldn't have the wifi bandwidth to control multiple servo skulls as a techpriest does.
>>567041312 That makes no sense. Tech priests are of a way too high of a rank and there were no data mines for omnissian axes, which are the iconic tech priest weapons
Is the cosmetic shop refreshing today so I can paypiggy? I’m selling some tf2 stuff. Either it is darktide or I blow a fat monetary load over the dead game called spiral knights that allegedly fixed some netcoding.
>>567042113 Nobody knows. All we know Skulls Day(week) starts next week and we should get "something". Last year was just a regular event with 500 aquilas as the final reward
>>567041312 They'll probably call it something like "Tech Adept" since their weapon selection covers more than just Skitarii, but they seem to be grounded loosely around Skitarii rangers/vanguard and the Sicarian based on the datamining.
>>567041434 Techpriests encompass a vast hierarchy across a galaxy spanning cult that has members all over the place to maintain all the tech in the Imperium, who says they can't be lowly tech adepts who haven't earned their axes? They can also put the axe in a future update 5 years from now. Not to mention Skitarii use highly specialized and distinct chassis for each type, which wouldn't have interchangeable riggings (besides Rangers/Vanguards). That the class also has a unique rigging could imply that it has a large servo arm or something that weighs down the user, which not all Skitarii will have.
