    There's a couple standouts like voltaxic rift and voidforge that are likely extremely strong. No clue how rare they are actually gonna be though, as voidforge was already very rare, just not very good or popular. Atziris disfavor is I think very interesting specifically for boneshatter. You...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    Because their weapons are crap and they don't get any of the iconic 40k stuff - power swords, flamers, lasguns, bolters, chainswords etc. Ogryns have 5 different bowie knives and a fucking latrine shovel

    I'm gonna just go on record that that skill is gonna be fucking insane with frostferno. 6 different sources of massive cold damage all hitting at once? Oh mama that is gonna do some damage.

    Performance has taken such a shit for my after the patch today holy shit. I can't even play some maps because it constantly tanks to like 15fps and I can barely even see what is happening.

    They increased the amount of enemy ogryn you have to bull rush in one charge to 6 lmao. I've never seen 6 enemy ogryn in one place even on max difficulty

    I haven't had any actual like crash to desktops since I went and changed the CPU cores in the launcher. It had defaulted to 13 for some fucking reason? I set it to 12 and it's been relatively stable since then.

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    Pretty disappointed with Ogryn in tier 4+ runs. You basically have to use the shield if you want to contribute anything meaningful to the team, and man that gets super boring. Grenade guns stop killing specials like snipers/trappers etc so even using those is bordering on pointless. Maybe you...

    I'm extremely bullish on the 3rd/4th edition foreign black border releases. As the supply of actual alpha/beta continues to dwindle these are gonna be the next go-to for oldschool nerds or people looking for original art etc. Plus they just look fucking sweet, especially black cards:

    Lmfao I was just about to post that the big slug definitely says beast of nurgle, not corruptor. The stationary eye is sooooo much easier at least.

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    How are you guys doing some of the more asinine penances? I don't even know what a "corruptor" is much less where it's eye is to throw the ogryn grenade at it, nor have I ever seen mobs thick enough to approach 100 for a charge etc.

    Removing curse scaling on bosses changes the entire landscape of bossing viability. What a wild fuckin change. Sirus might even be manageable with a big temp chains + chill. Any random elemental build can gain like 50% more damage by annointing an extra curse for ele weakness+their chosen...

    Veteran in general is beyond OP. Bolter + power sword is like 3 characters worth of damage.

    Trappers need to be changed. New gear stuff is at least a step in the right direction, but I'm really confused why they are piecemealing these systems out like this? The shop that it launched with was pathetic and a complete turnoff from the game.

    Yea the death march is at least tolerable here. I just bought 300 revive stones and sent the same group of 7 recruits out with aggressive AI to chain res each other. Only took maybe 45m while I was watching TV. The class rebalance is pretty nice all around. Most weapons are at least viable now...

    Turns out you definitely have to death march still to recruit Cressida in this remake which is pretty unfortunate. Good news is the process for getting the Deneb witch chick is waaaaaay shortened.

    I've been clearing the 4 pip difficulty ones with the cleaver just fine. Just gotta abuse the punch to stagger ragers and other heavy melee guys, and take the 50% more/less damage talent so you can tank the big boss mobs when needed. I can't imagine ever giving up the raw damage the cleaver...

    No, not even currency is shared. I wouldn't touch a 2nd char until the "beta" is over and they decide if there's gonna be wipes or not, and for them to implement an actual gear system instead of this nonsense hour reset shop.

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    I'm not a big fan of the shield. It's only real use so far appears to be the special for tanking plague ogryns, but how often does that even come up? Like every 5 maps? I much prefer the cleaver or knife and using the 50% damage talent vs big enemies. Way more useful weapon for regular enemy...

    Yea it wouldn't surprise me at all if it was actual tomato soup or some shit in it. This wasn't a particularly good recipe, it was basically poverty food from 1990 cause pork was 50 cents a lb and we were broke lol.

    Yea it's not immediately clear to me how many of the issues I have with the game currently are just because I'm playing ogryn heh. Like ogryns have a sprint+slide just like everyone else, but it doesn't actually work cause your model is so fucking big lol.

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    I'm really not sure what their plan is with the ranged enemies? It feels like they changed tack half way through it or something? So the tutorial says sprint and slide to avoid enemy fire but it...doesn't actually work that way? Enemy lasguns and such do so much toughness damage you're...

    Yea this is legit just worse than vermintide in many ways sadly. It's also a shitload of copypasting from vermintide too. The psykers entire staff moveset is just the bright wizard colored blue, the entire grimoire/scripture system is a complete copypaste, the ogryn is like 95% exactly the same...

    Near as I can tell they overhauled that system entirely and it's at least psuedo-random now. The old previous locations for finding specific items don't have those items anymore, and everything found as a hidden item for me so far has been sundries/crafting.

    JRPGs

    They removed the Thief class entirely - stealing is not a mechanic in the remake. Any unclaimed loot bags on the ground are claimed automatically at the end of a battle. The only way you could miss out on them if is if an enemy steps on one and survives the fight.

    Visuals are really great, so are sound effects and general atmosphere. Game runs like doodoo on a ryzen 5800x and 3090. I can keep ~70fps if I turn off RTX and a ton of other shit, but it's pretty bad. Matchmaking appears to be p2p just like Vermintide was and fails frequently. Load times are...

    I definitely noticed that on jugg vs slayer. In theory jugg has just as much AE as slayer, maybe even more so at like 10+ endurance charges, but it still never felt quite as good? For whatever reason slayer bops entire packs with ease while the jugg setup struggled constantly with stragglers...
