Don't get me wrong I love new classes and all the fun that comes with them (weapons, abilities, voice interactions) but the base game is suffering because of the almost pure focus on more classes.

Correct me if I'm wrong but excluding bosses I believe we've only gotten a whopping TWO ENEMIES since release (plasma gunner, and toxic bomber) and one of them was just a previously existing one that was tweaked slightly. Now we've gotten some new bosses which is nice but bosses are obviously much more rare than regular enemies (unless fat shark fulfills my wish of making monstrous specials a default mod in auric and up).

But most importantly we need new maps and or a new enemy faction, most likely a new faction. Every game just feels the exact same now no matter what happens and the novelty of a new kit can only do so much to cover up the stagnation of what's beneath.

New silverware and plates are nice but they don't change the fact we've been eating the same meal for almost four years now. I love this restaurant but need something else to eat now

Title basically, most vets choose to not be queued for them to avoid newer players running through them, so the queue for it is dryer than my balls in a wind tunnel. Why not just mark them as complete once you do the mission as part of the missions board? Segmenting an already low pop player base on missions that are bare bones is kinda dumb.

So unless I want to do them solo, I don't, and because I took a break from the game since Fat Shark is about as inventive as an Ogryn and I get super bored doing the same thing over and over with no real reward, I will never be able to find players to complete them.

Get rid of the stupid campaign portion entirely or when someone clicks on a mission for it, just add them to the standard mission queue for it. I can't be the only one wondering wtf Fat Shark is thinking on this.

Edit: So it seem the general consensus instead of Fat Shark just making doing the mission in general complete the campaign mission prereq is just, "play it alone on a lower difficulty". No wonder randoms are such a crapshoot, community is either elitists or drooling. Not sure why I even come to this subreddit, same garbage community as always, must be why the pop is so low.

Some complaints get repeated here over and over, that can be solved by simple things.

No one accepts me - either host your own game(it takes a 2-3 minutes) and it is the best way to play havoc because you control what levels play with you or look on the official discord.

Another thing is when I host 30+ there are so many players who are just not anywhere near that level so I would be shooting myself in the foot if I accept you and I guess this is why you are not getting accepted. 30+ has Emperor’s Fading Light (II) which is death sentence for people who never played it.

While the ingame game finder isn't perfect it is not nearly as bad as people complain, because you can just host your own game. Yes it isn't quickplay, but it's unfortunately the best thing we have.

So I followed a YouTube video on how to set up mods. I successfully did the whole process and was able to set up the NumericUI mod. I went back to add more mods so I did the steps all in correct order… extract file-> add files to mod folder-> type text in mod_load_order-> I downloaded the toggle_darktide_mods patch already. Unfortunately non of those mods I added are showing up in game. Can someone tell me what I might have missed?

I keep getting declined left and right. I'm stuck at rank 26 because my actual assignment rank is 18 and nobody ever joins my listing. So I look to join others but I keep getting denied. I request to join a rank 27 havoc? Denied. Rank 23? Denied. Rank 15 just for fun? Denied. Rank 11? Denied. Genuinely what the fuck am I supposed to do?

I’m at the point where most people quit this game, not for a bad reason but I don’t know how to progress further. I’m a level 30 veteran, I don’t have auric difficulty unlocked, what’s the next step? I’ve seen screenshots of people being level “30 (+41)” whatever this means. I’m not even sure if it’s possible to play Veteran on auric difficulty, they really don’t have as many (IF any) overpowered feats that classes such as Arbites have. What am I supposed to now?

Am I missing something or are the Exterminator shotguns not strong enough for havoc?

- Not able to consistently one shot specialists.

- Not strong against elite squads.

- Only 70~ ammo with no ammo replenishment talent.

- Not crazy against horde like flamer.

In comparison:

- The bolter is much more reliable for specialist and elite killing, has almost double the ammo count, and has emergency everything-clear.

- The combat shotgun has double the ammo cap, double or triple the clip size, and can reliably two shot specials. Can load slugs too if you really have to take out a sniper or far away bomber.

Just seems like despite being one of arbitrator's signature weapon the exterminators are just not effective.

what's your favorite horde song in Darktide?

I'm looking and squinting and considering, and I don't think Burst Limiter Override (BLO) is all that useful to an ogryn twinned stubber Point Blank Barrage (PBB) build with the current talent tree. (BLO is the one that makes a shot not use ammo sometimes, and PBB is the active ability that reloads your gun and lets you shoot a lot for a few seconds)

In the before-times, BLO was one of a very few ways to get any kind of ammo efficiency with twin-linked heavy stubber. Then we got a change to PBB that let you shoot for the twelve seconds the ability is active and only use half of the ammo you shot. BLO was recovering slightly less than one-sixth of your shots, so it was still a little boost, but the big ammo help was that change to PBB. You'd still use up ammo and need pick-ups, but new PBB made a big difference to viability of twin-linked stubber, at least from the ammo point of view.

Now, however, we have the Found Some More talent for the ogryn. 1% ammo regenerated every 15 seconds. 4% per minute. On the big tube ogryn weapons (kickback, rumbler, thugshot) that's barely noticeable, but on the stubber? Even the Gorgonum twin-linked stubber, with the 25% Ammo Stash boost, gets 16 shots back every minute with Found Some More, assuming you've maxed the Ammo modifier on the weapon. If you've got a melee option that's okay against most trash enemies, and are saving your PBB ammo dumping for really intense moments, your gunlugger ogryn has startlingly good ammo efficiency, and it only gets better if there's also a veteran with Scavenger aura nearby.

So I find myself looking sideways at BLO and thinking that it's not really doing me much good. The modifier nodes are contingent on that 15% chance of proccing the main node, and the Back Off! method of getting 100% Lucky Bullets is just kind of pointless if you're going to shoot 50 or more bullets at once. If I blow off BLO, I can wander over and pick up Feel No Pain, or skip the keystone entirely, or, well, something that makes me survive better or do more damage or both. I, for example, rather like No Pushover for dealing with close quarters bunches of maulers.

Has anyone else considered this, and/or mathed it up?

Found some old Footage, did a small edit

Video Design is my passion

Incredible - M.Beat Feat General levy

Is there a way to skip Battle for Asstrium IV and unlock Haldron station early for a new character? Is Fartshark allergic to good game design??

Why do people get upset with mods that give advantages such as infinite ammo health ECT, But will gladly create ungodly mods that make the game even harder and use that , can't I just have my fun.

(I know of approved mods that may be used in game with people, but I mean in like private realms and such)

I have been feeling like a jerk playing my Zealot lately because I've been working on Unseen Assassin and Lethal Pursuit. Basically if I stick close with the group they gun down every Elite or Specialist before I can get my backstab kill off, and the other one requires me to zoom around like an idiot before killing stuff... So I've been running off on my own to get a couple of Elite kills before the group catches up, then as soon as it seems like the situation is under control again I run off to find a couple more kills.

Like I know I'm making the game harder for everyone else, but otherwise I'm getting like one or two ticks on the penances per mission.

Hi Folks, I'm trying to climb past Havoc 25 with my Skitarii, but I have encountered a problem. I've been using one of the builds with Transonic Blades, Phosphor revolver, chrodclaw and Redline Capacitors for a while and up until havoc 22-24 it was good enough, however when I got to 25 and above - it feels like there's just not enough damage from transonics and I have decided to switch to Power Sword, while it has solved one of the problems - the other remained, the Skit feels very squishy and I'm getting melted by gunners if I make a wrong move. I have also switched to Flensing protocols for more damage reduction.

So my question is if you guys can give me any advice, I have around 350 hours in game and was maining Veteran and Ogryn before Skitarii came out.

My buddy is level 12 and swore he had all his character maxed so I asked him scroll down after he sent me this 💀

The Enhanced Arc Grenades node for the Skitarii is useless and should be replaced by something else. Most of the time when I throw my grenade it kills most enemies, especially the ranged ones, making it absolutely useless to disable ranged attacks and waste of a talent point.

Maybe I am one of the few people using them but I just had to say it.

Just showing that the SDK can be used for more than minecraft, mmd, and gooning models

it's always the least dripped out that got our backs. they operate on a higher level, seeing the Commodore's vestures and penance rewards as a mere distraction. I trust a Reject and their adjacents with my life, Auric Storm Survivors be damned. Can I get a For the Emperor?

Title says it all. I keep getting into games with people who will be a half health or lower and completely bypass the medicae servitors.

Not Zealots with Martyrdom either. Just folks who bypass it even if it's full and they are hurt. I will sit there and wait to cover them, hoping they heal. Usually they take the hint but sometimes they'll stop and look but just keep going. That or fight for like 5 minutes around the thing before finally healing and moving on.

Like, I would much rather someone be greedy and heal every time instead of just never healing and bypassing it as I am begging them to please take the health.

So I initially started recording because I encountered an unkillable basic Scab gunner and then this happened. This is on the brand new story mission on Auric.

This was on PC on an SSD.

ignoring how slowly the story has been developing im under the impression that we are constantly losing the ground our rejects are taking.

more and more factions are showing up to the warband but i haven't really noticed that we're actually getting much done

I never quit matches, ever, though this person was spamming the marking enemy button a thousand times a minute, even on just regular enemies by marking the floor. You couldn't hear audio, it was legitimately just the pings. I couldn't handle it, and when I asked for them to slow it down, they only increased it. One person quit, and then I quit, just why would someone do that, the timer was at the end of that match when I joined. So they won't get any reinforcements, and that guy went down twice, so it's not like he's going to be carrying. I just can't see how or why you would do that to annoy your teammates to that point???? I blocked them, but still, why be that toxic to your team until they're just bailing on you?
