Darktide: Vermintide (same team) but in 40K IG vs Chaos Cultists

Just got disconnected from server I'm having a hard time finding this game fun looks good but that is it.
 
I've noticed some significant performance bumps on my 4090, fps is getting more stable too.
 
I'm going to create a new character going in next week was thinking Ogryn but I think Psyker would be more fun to play.
Ogryn looks cooler but basically it's the same as a Veteran standing higher up.
 
I started an ogryn and its hillarious. You gotta aim down at most enemies you face and your swings tend to stagger and bat them around like rag dolls. You are an easy target for gunners so having teammates who can pick them off for you on higher difficulty levels is key. At 30 my sharpshooter highlights the shooters and when there's like 20 on screen an ogryn will go down quick if there's too much distance to cover.

Busiest I've seen it

I should of went though the tutorial first but I think I have it figured out.

Do players get staves and are they through the armory?
 
Got my first staff Tram Staff at level 4 I can Nuke now but it's really costly I ended up dying a few time but it's great for bosses.
 
I crashed twice but it was a ingame crash where you send a report to the Devs. I looked on Reddit and the fix is FPS limiter they said to use 60FPS
but I switched to 120 it was the higher option and that worked for about a 1/2 hour Match I wish the levels were smaller I'm sticking to my Psyker who's almost level 7.
The best part of a Psyker is unlimited Amo basically just have to cool down the staff. I hated looking for Amo as a Veteran. The last match I got out had all the Grimoires it sucks
cause my life bar was cut in half.
 
So, 120fps seems stable then? I'd hate to play a horde shooter at 60FPS in theory, but if it's smooth I bet it wouldn't be that bad... Overall, how are you enjoying it?

Looks cooler than it is to play but it has it's moments

You related to a Firborg from DAOC?

The Grind is kinda Real if you have time it's not I got 125 runes too bad it resets weekly not sure when end of the week is.


20230106184010_1.jpg


Level 14 I would be about 19 if I didn't start another character but hunting for Amo is a pain.


Always learning in this game the Action is really fast I mean those Hounds and the Demons which people attach which are like the Witches from Left for Dead I didn't know you could avoid them if you don't have a tank for a Demon it can really steamroll your group. I was in one group and the Ogrym was being attacked for 5 minutes straight while my game crashed I was able to Nuke him while the other guys were out of Amo so the game isnt' perfect by any means. DLC for this game could be amazing alot of the levels look the same and some of them are very confusing to Navigate you get lost easily if your unfamiliar with them. This game was a good test for my 4080 it crashed oly x3 times in about 8 hours of playing my 3070 did the same the game gives you the option to rejoin again though so you won't be kicked out of a 1/2 hour map.

I can't stop playing this game it's addicting once you hit 30 I suspect it could be boring but then just make another character.
I'm 17 now with about 18 hours of gameplay which is alot for me for one game.
 
I've been patiently holding off on getting too invested in this game until the performance gets better. It was pretty miserable even with a 9900k + 3080

Resolution? Settings? Dlss?

I have a 3080 and am interested in the game, but I hardly can believe it's unplayable with one.
 
I was playing at 1440p, everything lowest, RT off, DLSS off. I wouldn't go so far as to say it's "unplayable" but I'm used to consistent >200fps in most of the other FPSes I play. The most recent time I played I was still struggling to maintain >80fps in heavy fights. Definitely seems more CPU intensive than GPU.
DLSS helps a little bit, but honestly I just don't like how DLSS makes most games look.

Thanks... I'm sure I'll be fine at 4k myself then.
 
Just got the Weekly done since I'm on vacation took about 12+ hours total I hope the currency doesn't expire lol that would suck nothing in the Shop I want I got a Chainsaw from a gamble. I guess there are new items in the shop every week says like 23 hours left.
 
I tried a 3 Bar mission at level 24 died like 10 times but rezed all the time and reused everyone else was level 30. You have to a really sharp Mind with a 3 Bar Map.
3 Bar missions are pretty much insane I won't try it until level 30 again because I would have to nuke a enemy x3 time or more to have one die.
I finally have a Purple Staff though jokes aside helps and have just got a 3 curios unlocked. One thing I noticed alot of the Maps are basially the same and it's really easy to get lose I mean alot of the stuff looks the same and there are stairs and winding corners half of the time I don't know where to go because the map is new but it's similar to a map I previously played. I wish there were more bosses not the annoying add like Flamers and Bombers and Pox Wolf Dogs are really annoying and fast.

This is my gripe with matchmaking. Level 30 is max for your character, why is a level 24 getting grouped with them? I know they are trying to complete weekly missions to get the special gear money but the devs need to adjust this aspect of the game, but come on!

I started a zealot recently and am level 8 or 9. I was loaded into a mission with 3 level 30 characters!!! I bailed immediately. In fact, if I get into a mission queue where others are joining during the countdown; I will bail if the level disparity is too much. Otherwise, as soon as I spawn into the mission I check the social menu to verify what level the other players are. Then bail if I don't like what I see.

I think it should be set up like below with an additional filtering keeping characters from dropping down more than two bars mission wise. So for example, if you make it to 3 bar mission level status, you should not be allowed to enter 1 bar missions.

1 Bar mission - Level 1-6
2 Bar mission - Level 7-12
3 Bar mission - Level 13-18
4 Bar mission - Level 19-24
5 Bar mission - Level 25-30

I also had some problems completing 3 bar missions with the high intensity add on. I've survived 4-bars with my 30 sharpshooter, but haven't even thought about tackling a 5 bar mission. I feel like 5 bar you will need a team that all know what they are doing, have their characters performance down, and are communicating.

This is just some random thoughts I had on it. The game is fun but I think there could be some adjustments... or I just suck. :)

My Caster doesn't Melee that good cause when I'm surrounded the Life Meter does down pretty fast at Bar level 2-3 but I had to knock off 750 Scabs and 750 Dergs for the week I got it completed so I got a Legendary Curio out of it for my character that make Curios Drop more frequently I think I'm level 27-28 or now or close to 28. Level 30s just Speed Run the levels for weekly requirements they tell me that in chat.

Daemon Host everyone Avoids them for some reason sometimes we attack them and they just vanish not sure why.
 
Just breaking in my 4080 hopefully Fat Shark pulls off some good DLC for the game down the road. This is the best Co-Op game since Left for Dead 2 that I played honestly nothing is close to it since 2009 left for Dead. The reviews are people with systems that don't really meat requirements or their internet is 3rd world country. Sure the game crashes but it lets you back in after you crash. I had about 12 crashes and disconnects more disconnects but it's expected.

In my region no one seems to be playing so I am left at the mercy of stupid bots. I will try some more but most likely won't get very far with this game. Also bots love to pick ammo. My first real boss fight (I am level 2) and I ran out of ammo. Beat the general whatever with a shovel for 15 mins. Wtf?
 
I think when you get to level 6 or so groups should be easier to find the first few levels are training levels time zones could make a difference maybe.

Personally I think that Vermintide 2 is a much better game. On the Darktide forum they're saying that the number of Darktide numbers has dropped while Vermintide's are increasing. The 'Tides' have always been repetitive but Darktide takes that to a whole nother level while also adding MTs so it's easy to see why it's reviewing poorly.
 
Created a Ogryn level 9 already I like how he can take Bosses on without much damage. It;s not ever fair compared to my Psyker just mauls through stuff haven't died once but I noticed the levels are harder then typical. Also picked up my first Grimoire found it in a box but only found 2 scriptures.
 
Thanks for the opinions and screenshots Comix- wishlisted might pick it up for the weekend.

Bots can be annoying at times. They definitely put down cover fire so that is why they steal ammo. Wait until you get pounced by a hound with them on your team. They take their sweet time getting over to help you out. Had that happen last night. Assassination mission with a shovel sounds like a grind...LOL.

You can get some good loot if you complete the weekly missions and get the accompanying special currency. I get why there are so many high level players joining lower bar missions, just to knock out the requirements. Still a broken mechanic IMO.

I think I've been on teams that woke up the Daemonhost where we actually survived the encounter. Once the Ogryn with a shield triggered it and he hid in a corner surviving the Host's onslaught, while the rest of us pounded it back to the Abyss. Most of the times it's been triggered it wipes out the whole team or takes out half and disappears. I generally have learned to avoid the damn things.

I loved vermintide, but I hate this.

Open game, wait at loading screen. Load to the hub world, loading screen, load to mission, loading screen. 4min mission, back to loading screen. Enemies just flow through the walls.
they dont even show missions stats. like did I kill more or less? am i getting better?

Oh- Thanks for the reminder, I have a month free around here... I'll download today!

Friendly disclaimer...my group was split 2 and 2 with 2 on steam and 2 on gamepass....found out the hard way at 11pm....there is no linking/crossplay between the two yet.
 
Oh, that sucks! I'm playing the Gamepass with random groups and it's interesting. The maps are very true to WH40K, both the ship and in the hive city look great. Performance seems good, stability needs work. I have a crash every handful of missions, always right as a load into a map I CTD just as I can see the map open. Gameplay is great, but enemies are a bit limited. Overall this is fun, but makes me miss Mass Effect 3 multiplayer.
 
Well that's cool- I really feel like there is a good game here with some polish and better crafting/matchmaking/stability.
 
Patch Notes 1.0.22

Rejects,
First I wanted to introduce myself for those of you who don’t know me yet, Hi! I am Catfish and I will be the Community Manager for Darktide going forward. In this Update we will address some of the community’s questions following on from our recent open letter and give you the patch notes from this week's bugfixes.

Addressing Some Questions:

Roadmap

We hear your enthusiasm for an updated Roadmap for Darktide, however we have adjusted our short term plans to allow for more work on our top priorities which mainly revolve around getting the game to where it should be. Because we are in the process of adding changes in accordance with the feedback we have received since launch, certain features we hoped to have in the game by now have had to be pushed back. We aim to bring you an updated version in the future once we have a more concrete plan in place.

Third Party Services

While we are generally supportive of these kinds of community-developed tools, we are aware that there are third-party services available which interface with our backend APIs using authentication tokens acquired from our Web services or the game itself. We just wanted to make sure that all our players are aware that Fatshark will not be accountable for any issues caused by using these tools, and that we don’t support using the token in any other way than with the official game client. This is done entirely at the players’ own risk.

The danger of these services is that you are effectively giving out your Darktide account credentials with potentially excessive permissions to a third party which Fatshark has no control over.

Now, onto the patch notes!

New patch:

Rejects,​

Here are the notes for patch 1.0.25. As mentioned in the Comm-Link 45 released last week this patch is focused on fixes for Blessings, and also balance changes for weapons.

Oh~ YMMV, but I also have not had a single CTD since the 25 Jan patch. This game is really addictive, but also making me want a ME3 multiplayer sequel.

I've had only one, which is a marked improvement over previous stability. It is pretty addictive. I've got Sharpshooter and Preacher to 30 (and continue to play) and have been working on Ogryn recently.

I have been having issues with the craft/armory/Sire Melk menus not showing up. Maybe something to do with changes they are trying to implement:

Later this week we will also be releasing a Dev Blog talking about changes to Crafting, Sire Melk’s Requisitorium and the Armoury Exchange!
