You're going to have to accept that the next Darktide class will be Hive Ganger. Best start speculating about their class skills now.

Cadia?
More like CACAdia!

>>544090736
That's cool though. I like Necromunda. Would also accept servitor.

does darktide have any funny banter between characters like ratclick or does the game take itself way too seriously

>>544094328
Of course it does

>>544090736
been there done that

>>544094328
It has lots of banter but you never actually hear it ingame because there is no downtime like Vermintide

>>544094328
It has some. But each voice only has unique callbacks with two other voices (sometimes three if the VA did both voices), the rest are class generic.

>>544089901 (OP)
ever notice how much darktide tie-in stuff GW pushes?
action figures, card games, boxed games, RPG expansions
its forced

>>544096212
GW will see one semi-successful 40k game and ride it into the dirt

>No Warrior class

>>544097797
I look like that

>>544097797
Crit rashad charge zealot is the warrior class

Just walked up to dukane and beat the shit out of her in front of everyone and then when she was unconscious on the ground I pulled down her pants, and pressing my buttcheeks against her groin I took a very fat yet clean and healthy shit inside her pussy. Then I pulled her pants back up and buckled her belt for her, gave her some water, and helped her back to her feet where she was then led to the ships medicae center

Is the ideal zealot the one where you have to be wounded all the time?

>>544097972

>>544097972
Introduce me then

>>544098835
No, this is.

>>544099903
i honestly miss it because throwing knives are a lot more fun than the other grenades but stunstorms are just so strong

>the end of the last thread
did verminchads really give up the general to a bunch of /k/ wannabe military/enlisted washout cucks?

The new class is a Vox Operator who brokers with command to call in supplies during missions. It has roughly the same overlap with Veteran as any other class.

They'll also reintroduce the Scab Vox Operator with redesigned AI and make a big deal about how much work had to go into their redesign and the stealth-lite Operation's detection/escalation system.

source: My third eye opened after seeing a dog Arbitrator go down in a Malice mission I was running with a friend.

>>544090736
its funny that despite their efforts to be grody, they've only achieved a bland sort of ugliness that would not at all lend itself to a proper ganger aesthetic

i doubt they're allowed to show enough skin to make any character feel like a ganger

>>544101269
Stupid

I tried to make a crit primary attack electro staff build and gotta say scriers gaze cristalline will combo is the most retarded thing I did

>>544103291

>>544104376
It's not so easy to make scriers permanent since the psykinetic's aura nerf, you're always like 1.5 seconds short. Idk maybe you need to spend more time in charging phase, but primary attack takes so much peril it's basically over in 4 seconds.

I disagree, but when it permeates the fabric of your fictional universe it really fucking ruins it. For example, the infantilization of The Lord of the Rings series completely ruined it for me

>>544109432
Making everything a joke isn't always the best way to have fun. I never understood the idea that seriousness and fun have an adversarial relationship

>>544109546
It's a game. It's entertainment. Get over yourself.

>>544109546
Sure but you started off by denigrating whimsy fun (that I enjoy occasionally).

Maybe it's just because I haven't risen to the highest levels of difficulty yet, but to me it seems like hordes don't really matter. I've never been in a situation where I felt like horde enemies are a threat. I've literally never once seen a person go down because they were swarmed by horde mobs. The only threat I see coming from them is that they obscure your vision and get in the way of killing things are actually threats, and even then the effect seems pretty minor

>>544109950

>>544109943

Any good audiobook recommendation?

>>544110082
Damnation

Why does darktide dominate this thread if helldivers and such are more popular

>>544110313
because helldivers got his own general

Can you still cheese the auric mission completions without dying by leaving the game? I'm trying to farm out as many penances as possible and those ones seem to be the absolute worst because you need to rely on your teammates to not be mouth breathers.

>>544110313
All the actually alive coop games have their own threads, darktide is just the most popular unpopular game.

>>544110313
Helldivers went off to it's own general and it became a bunch of weird larpers.

>>544110441
Such as? Even dwarf game general died and they can't even be arsed to talk about it here more than once a week.

>>544110112
that one is very gooid

>>544110440
No and you don't need to

Tide games are certified /vg/ /coopg/ger is why. Blame KF3 and PD3 sucking donkey dick.

I think Novitiate would be a cool class
But it would basically be Zealot
Dialogue could be fun though

Just came to me
Skitarii class

>>544110591
/sm2g/
For some reason

>>544110702
Just finished it and Agent of the Throne

>>544111479
What? I wouldn't even consider that a coop game when that mode is completely tacked on, like the PvP. But maybe it's better off over there with the franchise overlap and abysmal gameplay.

>>544106280
It would be a Fatshark Seal of Quality moment for sure, the real joke is that it's at all conceivable.

>>544112379
It started tacked on but it's clearly the game's primary draw and has more content than the campaign.

>>544109950
Both Tide games train you badly on purpose, as a joke. The game doesn't start until Cata/Auric.

>>544111729
ive listened to about 150 or so 40k sloppa novels

>hh books (btw the series is numbered but non-linear except for the first four or so)
horus rising, false gods, galaxy in flames, know no fear, fear to tread, first heretic, unremembered empire, master of mankind are all solid
>gaunt's ghosts
every single book is a minimum B tier. abnormally enjoyable imperial guard story. i own each physical omnibus and have re-read them a total of about 7 times.
>inquisitor series
eisenhorn tetralogy, ravenor trilogy, and the bequin duology are arguably the best 40k books period, this will be especially true whenever the last bequin book "pandaemonium" drops which will probably be the biggest lore shattering novel in the setting's history
>dawn of fire series
avoid, imo. it's like a smaller, shittier version of the horus heresy series but set in the modern area. the first book is readable.

there's so many goddamn books that i cant even remember them all. the only ones i really havent even thought about touching are the xenos books. they're typically very bad and only the necron books are of even middling quality, but i hate comedy so i wont finish them. same goes for ciaphas cain. anything that makes me laugh gets dumpstered.

>>544106372
Havoc 25 has a cool legs cosmetic and you get a helmet and chest item for helping people in their Havoc games.

Currently on Silent War now collecting all the HH books physically

>eisenhorn tetralogy, ravenor trilogy, and the bequin duology
I'll add these and the Skitarii audiobook, the Black Legion audio drama was okay, Alpha Legion just being inside the Vengeful Spirit the whole time after Terra was kinda dumb

i wanna plap kerillian

>>544114526
the various chapter dramas of 40k are so fucking gay, no wonder HH sells like shit

>>544114629
to be honest, some of them just feel unnecessary, but I did like Damnation of Phythos

>>544114751
i think i'm just bitter that so many of their lynchpin features boil down to "uh oh we have a huge secret we must hide from the rest of imperium bros" or "our curse/mutation consumes us :("

>>544114918
Makes me wonder how they're going to handle the Scouring

My patience with the "hard mode" of this game is at an all time low. It's near bullshit on 30+ and it's near impossible to play because of all of these faggots who only want a 40 for a carry job.
should've just stuck to DRG but sunk cost fallacy. thanks for subscribing to my blog.

Post solo 40 using only auto pistol with controller firmly up your ass.

are they turning the game around?

>>544116847
depends on how fun the 6th class is

They already released the most boring one, I can't believe Fatshark can make a more dull class than the arbeetus.

>>544116847
The game is officially turned around and is headed straight to Funtown

>>544117012
I like the dog... How is it boring?

>>544117170
It's boring because you don't have to micromanage time-sensitive buffs.

>>544108642
>starts fantasizing about rape
Clockwork.

are trappers coded to target the best player in the lobby or something? i swear im getting netted like 10 times every game

>>544118569
genuinely and unironically yes. they also prioritize players with the lowest quantity of time spent in coherency

>>544118569
The frontliner is always the most likely to get trapped

>>544118569
They always target the player least likely to get help, like the ones separated in the front or back. If all else fails they just default to closest target.

>>544117838
its aqshy's fault, her ears bro...

>>544119703
aqshy rape time?

>>544117496
we already know, only retards are posting the interview cope

>>544118658
>they also prioritize players with the lowest quantity of time spent in coherency
this is bullshit btw, you just get trapped because you are the closest to the door he comes out from (either ahead or behind)
>>544119063
this

>>544118569
There's a lot of talk about the AI director being allowed to spawn extra disablers near a player that isn't within coherency, which aligns with my experiences, but I don't remember whether that's actually true. Makes sense though, as The Good Guy, you're most likely the one pushing forward while your retards are hunkering down, too stupid to move while fighting
>im getting netted like 10 times every game
I assume that's hyperbole and you mean more like 3-4, but even then, that's too much. Play better. The best way to deal with trappers is to fucking shoot them dead before they have a chance to net. Ogryn gets rock, human classes get bolt pistol or revolver. Rock isn't 100% consistent on trappers iirc, but it does one-shot with some global damage talents. Bolt pistol breakpoints depend on your class, but maniacs is a safe perk to make it easier.
If a trapper is too close because she just rounded a corner, your fastest counter is pushing to stagger her.
Obviously always dodge and slide 90 degrees perpendicular to the direction the trapper sound came from, but this should only happen after all the previous shit fails for whatever reason.

>>544119910
we already know, only retards cope otherwise

>>544119927
Bolt pistol or revolver are totally replaceable btw. All of the shotguns swap quickly and are accurate ENOUGH usually, though you might want to aim them. Plasma gun only suffers lag on the primary fire, but swaps fast enough. Zealot knives obviously work. Arbitrator frag grenades work if you're Lone Wolf, and the dog is good at fucking them up if you see them before they get close.

>>544110112
What’s the appeal of audiobooks? Do they just have someone reading shit to you? Where can I get some?

>>544120227
Yes, it's an audio file of someone reading the book. Can't read when you're commuting to work or doing your daily jog.

>>544120457
>commuting to work or doing your daily jog
things you don't do

>>544120457

>>544115848
>>544116256
That would single handedly actually make me give those games a try actually

I find it funny that GW just doesnt give fans what they want to be a whore in the imperium or in the 40k universe like ever
is slaanesh content just that bad?

>>544120227
they're very good for doing chores. laundry, cleaning your bathroom, doing dishes, doing yardwork, gardening. also if you paint/play 40k, listening to an audiobook while assembling models or painting is very comfy.

i actually listen to audiobooks while playing my smite psyker with the visual specialist cues mod turned on. also works pretty good with boltgun veteran

>>544120948
too icky for the advertisers

>>544119906
idk if they specifically target them but the director definitely does spawn disablers when a player is alone for too long

im a daggergod zealot (die all the time by myself btw) running around like a decapitated chicken scouring the map hoovering diamantine, grimoires, and also scriptures. i will literally find a book while already carrying one, make a mental note of its location, daggersprint back to the party, pawn the first book off to someone else, then sprint back to the 2nd one and grab it.

sometimes i genuinely dont fight anything else the entire map except for the specialists that spawn trying to kill me. very rarely ill even get a mauler, bulwark, or crusher surge all at once but theyre easy enough to take down with my trusty Accatran MG Mk II Heavy Laspistol and catachad mk 6 dagger.

>new Darktide class
>new mission set in the "trenches of Atoma"
if the new class is cool and the trenches of Atoma is an actual exterior landscape on the surface of a world instead of another series of derelict space station hallways i might actually start playing this game again. Tuesday after next will be a big day.

>>544124420

I have a feeling that this is more metaphorical than anything, and is more referring to a more general "Battlefield of Atoma." This is usually a meme, but I genuinely think it could be 50/50 either way.

>What is the reward for high difficulty content?
Ordo dockets and crafting materials you don't need. Since if you're playing H40 at all in a serious way, you're expected to have minmaxxed weapons with best blessings and perks, same with curios.
Other than that there is no actual reason to play it.

>>544110798
mouthbreathers say otherwise

>>544110440
>>544130863
You don't need to cheese it, but you do need to have some strategy if you want to avoid the game unfairly cucking you out of the penance.
Do not quickplay, and only queue completely fresh missions. If you quickplay or start missions that are already on their way to expire, there is always a non-zero chance of joining the MISSION FAILED screen. Similarly, you might join a barely salvageable mission as the last man standing on 70% corruption with two bosses pounding your ass the second you spawn in.

>>544129578
dont forget kinetic deflection which functionally quintuples your effective stamina bar

Are they going to gate the third resource "Mobian Steel" used in the creation of red weapons behind havoc? i might actually quit if that ends up being the case ill never be able to do havoc ever

>>544133135
That's an extra two dots for my staff psyker, otherwise I'd want it

>>544133315
youre probably using some dumb shit you genuinely dont really need. find the points.

>>544133221
>Are they going to gate (...) havoc?
Extremely logical, yet highly unlikely, because fagshart toyed with the idea of rewarding aquilas, and ended up scrapping it. The implication of red weapons has much greater game impact than cosmetics, meaning such a resource would be even more coveted. I doubt they'd do this.
>ill never be able to do havoc ever
Even low level havocs reward you with weekly crates, and you only need to play one game per week to claim your rewards at the start of next week. (You) can win havoc 20s, they're piss easy.

>>544133583

>instant butthurt because he uses a completely different build
State mandated grass time chuddy

>>544133690
Unless you have less than 100 hours in the entire genre and/or aren't even comfortable with the controls, that's really embarrassing and you should strive to do better. Most mistakes can be fixed by wearing headphones, NOT playing some loud distracting music, and listening to audio cues so you know when to block or dodge. The rest is basically just sliding a lot, which is pure muscle memory, and becomes easier if you customize your binds to something comfy.

>>544133370

>completely different
only needing two points means his keystone is middle tree and his ability isnt gaze. any build using any combination of blitz, fart, and bubble with middle tree can sacrifice two points somewhere, no exceptions, guaranteed. now if he was pure left tree thats a valid cum session

>>544134121
>only needing two points means his keystone is middle tree and his ability isnt gaze
What kind of completely retarded statement is that? Every good psyker build takes at least 2-3 nodes in the center. You have fucking 20% damage to ogryns and monsters, and +20% damage at high peril. You take those. That means every good build is 2 points away from Kinetic Deflection.

>>544134237
i never take those. theyre useless

>>544134283
so are you

>>544134323
>>544134329
the opportunity cost for a trivial amount of damage vs toughness nodes in tier 1 or peril gen nodes in tier 3 is way too high for my psyker builds

>>544134917
Either cheese at least some of the leveling, or assume it's abysmal dogshit. It doesn't really do enough without good blessings, and is only okay at best with them.
If you want to level it naturally, take it to mortis trials and let indulgences carry you.

I guess you could grab kinetic deflection if you take empowered psionics for the extra spicy kinetic flayer procs.

this wont suck at all

i thought you're supposed to use the brain explosion thing because it randomly goes off with that one perk where it happens ever 10% of times or something

h1 > h2 > l3 single
l1 > (l2 > h3) horde
pushfollow is a strike down that leads into single
attacking after pushing (not pushfollow) leads into horde loop

What?

I don't play psyker but with the brain burst ability there's a sub talent that makes it randomly proc 10% of the time or something

I looked it up its kinetic flayer but they changed it to 100% of the time every 12 seconds

It goes off whenever you do damage to anything other than horde enemy, with a 12s cooldown before it can happen again.
You take it with another perk that causes elite/specialist kills to spread soulflame to nearby enemies
And usually a perk that soulflame kills spread up to 4 stacks of soulflame.
Soulflame DOT can also trigger the brainburst proc, essentially giving you random elite/specialist kills. Or doubling up on brainburst kills if you manually use it.

Yeah that's the idea. The middle keystone gives it more damage but I find the cooldown reduction of the left keystone more valuable.
