Agreed, the chain weapons have received a massive glow-up! Makes me hope that one day they'll make power swords fun to use again, but until then, I'll stick with my chainsword.

But i'd rather have a feature to save loadout talents personally.



I haven't tried it out myself but based on what I was reading in the talent tree page, you could save your load out talents?

Got some proper Darktide in yesterday, not with bots or braindead fethwit randos, all was well. Didn't meet the twins, but played both new maps back to back, giving us plenty of good challenges and combat encounters, the new stims were fun to use as well, our shouty got a jab every time we found one, serving as the Guinea pig. Psyker got knocked off a bridge and off the map at some point, that left us at a disadvantage for a bit, but that was so stupidly random we just rolled with it, choking with laughter.

Also, the new shovel is godlike. I played Lucius + shovel Krieg for a map for gaks and giggles and damn, the new pick attack does great amounts of damage.

[Encryption active] Morrow counsels me that I am, perhaps, wrong. He tells me he thinks I have misunderstood Interrogator Rannick’s caution the other day. The fear is that my obsession with the Karnak Twins will make me weak, or sloppy, or rash.

I refute this, but I value Morrow’s opinion. Morrow says that my personal knowledge of Tertium is, and always has been, a great asset to the warband. It was why I was recruited. Further, he states that my emotional response, my heartfelt need to save and free my home hive, is an asset too: a vital passion that secures and drives my loyalty to this cause and, by extension, drives the determination of the warband members. Seeing my passion, the rejects come to learn and share it.

But, he asks me, what really fuels my rage? Love of Tertium? Loyalty to the cause? Devotion? Hatred of the turncoats in whom I see so much of myself?

All of these things. But what else, he asks me.

I have dwelt on this since we spoke. Morrow is a wise man, a fine student of human psychology. One does not lead men into war as well as he does without that knack. He worries, I think, that I have become obsessed with the Karnak Twins not for those obvious reasons. Those acceptable reasons. He wonders if it is not the points of similarity and connection between myself and those monsters that fires me, but instead the difference.

They are of Tertium, like me, yes, but they were high-born where I was but a poor child of the lower zones. They were wealthy, privileged and entitled. They were, once, exactly the sort of people that my kind despised. The people that lived lives of excess and luxury and treated us all like chattel. Indeed, their wealth and status was built on the toil and suffering of people like me.

I hate them as they are now, yes. I hate them for their treachery. But perhaps my personal engagement is born from the fact that I have always hated them. I hated them long before they turned to darkness. Growing up, the Twins, and people like them, were the very kind I learned to loathe. In the Torrent, we all did. They were the scum. The scum that floated at the very top, blocking the light and stealing it for themselves.

Perhaps Morrow, in his quiet wisdom, is correct. Perhaps, in truth, my hatred for the Karnak Twins comes not from what they are now, but from what they once were. [Recording ended]

I've been waiting for a Valhallan skin and I'm a bit disappointed, more than a little cheeky to make you pay separately for the hat..

It is a really nice outfit that really pays homage to the classic minis, but they knew exactly what they were doing when they released it like this.

Whilest it still avoids fixing more important things. Don't get me wrong, it's nowadays a good enough game but on a fundamental level it has mechanical issues, related to netcode, hitboxes and other things.

I refunded this during the preorder testing and later re-bought it at a heavy discount. It's an alright game but sadly riddled with the typical issues and predatory tactics of modern-day gaming.

Cosmetics have not been mined as far as I can tell, just upcoming weapons.

The current batch of cosmetics is, scion helmet aside, across all classes reissues or recolours of previously done packs. The helmet is nice, but not 1400 birdies nice. I would say hold off, in the next cosmetic cycle or two we will be seeing a full scion armour set most likely, they did the same with the commissar hat, releasing it on its own first, then as part of a bundle. The main feature, a reskin of the Kasrkin armour in regular Cadian colours, is nice and more decently priced at least.

An update!

What’s coming up in Darktide?

Our first update will focus on a comprehensive revamp and expansion of the penance system, including adding many additional rewards and a completely new way to earn them. We will be sharing more information on this update by the end of the month along with a dev blog, so keep your eyes peeled on our Communication channels to learn more.

Following this, we are working on an overhaul of our current itemisation process. With the new system we want to remove a lot of the unpredictable grind that came from an RNG heavy system whilst giving players more agency and a steady manner to progress toward specific loadouts, blessings, and stats refinement.

Although these are significant portions of each update, this is not our full plan for 2024. We will be adding new elements to Darktide throughout the year as well including (but not limited to) new missions, new enemies, new weapons, new conditions, and new features alongside balance updates, quality of life additions, along with some other surprises which we will share in due time.

We thank you for all your feedback you’ve given so far, and look forward to sharing these changes and new content with you in the near future and seeing what you think!
Well, okay, an update to let us know that after their long hibernation they're still doing stuff.

So I've been trying to squeeze in quick play matches at night when Baby is sleeping, and I swear to god, She wakes whenever the Boss fight starts, every time.

That being said, I'm getting really tired of being auto-matched with crap teams that have zero clue what to do or where to go, and get stuck and kicked after getting lost, leaving us with a bot team mate or two. Also, Zealots that rush off into packs of mobs or worse, trying to close to melee with a sniper, and getting one shot. A really good player cannot carry a bad team in this game. That hurts. You either stick together, or you all fail at the end boss because half the team is bots, standing in the fire out of ammo.
