Official gameplay of the Arbities in Darktide
https://youtu.be/Aq_vdjOlpSY?si=scs2XjSrE9yPAtm3
So how much longer til Darktide adds a second faction like a Genestealer Cult?

>one of the fart bites action skill is just a copy paste of zealot's charge
creatively bankrupt

>>712458807 (OP)
All that did was remind me of how bad the levels in Darktide are. How could they have fucked up so badly after how good the VT2 levels are?

>>712459072
I liked the train level in Darktide

>>712459072
Darktide has a lot of great levels, narratively it just doesn't seem like you're going anywhere.

>Years of neglect
>Wasted opportunities left and right
>Hyper overpriced mtx
>No new weapons in fucking forever
Oh man, it's a fucking given they are working on darkshite 2.

>>712459316
It would make sense if they intend to add a second faction. No point in doing that much work without selling it full price in the eyes of Warhammer kikes.

>>712459072
Would it really kill them to have a little variety
Like I know it's an Imperial hive but invent some reasons for more interesting environments for the love of god
>Botanical area for rich people
>Snowed in/frozen area near environmental controls
>Actual weird geometry due to warp shenanigans
>Fighting inside a space ship, crashed or about to take off or mid-flight
I refuse to believe people are big enough fans of grimy industrial hellholes that they want every single level to be a variation of that theme
I admit I haven't played since the train update but I assume they haven't improved

how much money is it?

>>712458956
the game is 5-10 dollars. you get 5-10 dollar content
fuck trannyshark for being retards

>>712459660
There is a snow level, and I'm pretty sure it was added BEFORE the train level.

>>712460114
like £13 or something

>>712460174
Oh, so there is
I guess I stopped way earlier

>>712459316
worse, they're working on sigmartide
source: it's the worst course of action possible, so it must be true

I hate how true this so often is.

>>712458807 (OP)
Why mount the shells on top and obstruct your sights?

>>712460891
Rule of cool

>>712461039
But you can just mount them on the sides of the gun/barrel like in real life and look just as cool and be realistic and practical...

>>712458807 (OP)
Seeing that Cyber-Mastiff move is stressing me the fuck out. Who's idea was it to use the exact same animations as the pox hound?

>>712460891
It's more important to look at your shells than your enemies

>>712461125
retard, the shells is what makes the sights, you reload with shells from your pocket, learn high gothic

>>712460257
in normal people units?

Dogs are cool but dog companions in video games are the most boring shit
>grabs one enemy and holds it down
wow so fucking BORING

>>712461125
>>712461347
if you're aiming down sights in darktide, you're going too slow

>>712460537
>sigmaride

>>712458956
There are only 4 different abilities in a tide game.
>AoE explosion
>Charge forward
>Stealth
>Missile

>>712461387
probably $12.99, you- foreigner.

>over two years since launch
>first new class is only just now coming out (pay up piggies)
>map selection is still dogshit
>itemization is still grindy phone game garbage
How do you take a guaranteed moneymaker like "40k L4D" and run it this far into the fucking ground?

>>712461743
Sw*den

>>712461743
Sell Tencent an 80% stake in your company and let their chink beancounters implement the monetization and "player retention mechanics" in your live-service slop

unironically just sunset the game.

move on to vermintide 3 with the cast of vt2.. everyone is happy. fatshart makes more money..

>>712462465
Id be happy with this because I liked that vermintide was more melee focused. Too shooters in darktide

>>712462806
ideally they hand off the management to a 3rd party but yeah. the deep melee combat was the reason ppl played vt1+2

>>712462806
Too many*

>>712461743
Retarded design choices everywhere. All they had to do was to make Vermintide in space. Every gameplay mechanic was so shit they had to spend all this time fixing them. 3 crafting & shop reworks, penance rework, class rework and then reworking particular classes every few months. Now they are reworking story and mission selection because it's shit as well.
Even near the release I was saying that I rather have them make Darktide 2, but properly this time, instead of wasting time on fixing first game. Now they should make VT3 finally and then Darktide 2, but don't fuck up it again.

>>712461743
Fartshart does this deliberately.
They learned with VT2 that you can just regress on every single issue you solved with your previous game, and millions of hapless piggies will praise you for "listening to the community"
So with DT they purposefully handicapped their own game, and spend all day jerking themselves off in their own discord over fixing problems that were already fixed in the platform they built the game off of.
