    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    yeah, I've contemplated swapping to Steam as well. xbox patching. gamepass have fewerplayers. who knows how long it will be on gamepass. patching is slower. who knows if fatshark learned anything about the process, and will be smart enough to push 1.0.13 and 1.0.14 at the same time to...

    Bullet Train (2022)

    This is on netflix. its ok. fun-ish. Discount Guy Ritchie movie. not nearly as tight. woke shit felt more tongue in cheek. Like the mansplaining to the women dying. I could have done without the girl character. The poster linked amusing spoils shit a bit. If you dont see that, the...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    so, Atoma primes location is not previously established. So, I'm going to guess it is in the Dark Imperium side of things. Storywise, I'd say there is a good chance this is a lost cause. Atoma prime is a Deamonworld in the making.

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    yeah, theres alot of subtle shit. They bring up the rift. https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Great_Rift and of course Cadia is destroyed. "Darktide" is probably outright referring to the blackness? https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Noctis_Aeterna so, the game probably is occurring during this...

    Last Epoch

    Even fails when you use the correct March 1st as the start of a new year. Is he British? The British considered Marth 25th, the beginning of the new year till the mid 1700's.

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    yeah. I can definitely see many people would have not loved the roguelike idea. Get attached and want their single character. But at the same time, again, lots of "just like VT2, and lfd". complaints of not pushing the genre. I think that roguelike character gen would have been cool as...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    I saw a reddit post on being able to change characters personality, to experience the other voice acting, etc. And it occurs to me, the current system is a missed opportunity. to the point I wonder if it was changed at some point. Canonically, Damnation t5 is probably the canon. So, any...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    Enemies have mass. Lets say a unarmored zombie has 100mass, while a Mauler has 400, and a Plague ogre has 800. your attacks then have cleave damage, cleave target, and cleave value. Cleave damage is how much damage is carried over from hit to hit to hit. (first target is the opposite. first...

    Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023)

    I'd guess "all of the above" honestly. Pacman. which was refed in the previous movie. Which was partially a source for Among us. Green instead of pink though. suit designs are heavy on 2001 as noted.

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    yeah. theres several stages of waking up a deamonhost, which confuses people. getting close or shooting it once, will alert it, causing the demon to possess the host. but not actually aggro yet. After its awake and hovering, THEN being too close or shooting it will aggro it, causing it to...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    checking Veteran Sharpshooter char creation. 3 personalities. The professional, The loose Cannon, and The Cutthroat. Apparently, The Cutthroat requires Cadia homeworld backstory. Which is interesting. female loose cannon also has a Scottish accent. the personalities themselves are fairly...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    I wonder what the deal with the "main story" is. obviously theres lots of complaints... But I can't help but feel like I noticed something others don't mention. Why does the PC stop talking? they obviously put alot of time and money into the voice acting. But for some reason our PC is...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    achievements only atm. ogryn with shields just shit on them. can tank it directly while everyone elses dps. I've actually gotten a good number of kills on them now. If you aren't an ogryn you need to learn how to dodge. I remapped to ALT. their attack is pretty slow and telegraphed...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    if you have a psyker, stick near them. assuming they aren't stupid. they are cc machines, not dps as you might expect. I think I mentioned it, but psykers force sword is stupid good. on push, its a large aoe pushback, then when doing the follow up counter attack, instead of damage, its an...

    Wednesday

    Idk, I think Guzman was perfect. Sure the bombastic Julia performance is great. But, he's also a bit too dashing. I'd say Jones was worse as Morticia. too emotionally, and motherly. Huston nailed that otherworldly gothic demeanor. The flashback/younger versions of both were terrible. IDK...

    The Peripheral

    Yeah, I also found the logic and general explanation of what she was doing to be super unclear. The show never explained the rules. And it certainly never explained them to her. So its really confusing. Where did she come up with this plan? Its a problem. how much of how any of this works...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    yeah. wounds are how many times you can be downed. when downed. one bar gets corrupted, and turns purple. medi stations can heal it. medipacks do not. you have 3 wounds default in tier 1,2, and 3. you have 2 wounds default in t4 and 5. +wounds does not give more health, or protect from...

    what do you guys think on my Pysker? +1 wounds, +2% max health, or +2 stam, +2% exp? (also have +1 wounds, +1% combat ability regen.)

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    Checking zealot personalities. we have the Fanatic. Female is scottish accent. I had to check, I don't think its Kerillians VA. I thought it might be, but shes listed as "traitor captain" in darktide. Alix Wilton Regan - IMDb oh, went and found it. Sophie Wilkinson - IMDb sophie...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    40k is not the future of Warhammer fantasy. Terra/Earth in literally Earth in 40k. The world in Warhammer fantasy looks alot like Earth, but isn't. like westeroes, or Middle earth. Warhammer Fantasy COULD be a lost colony in the "current" 30-41st millenia's. There are some physical...

    Wednesday

    fyi, She does get called out a bit for her shit. and she does reflect on the fact she does like people, and is hurt by them leaving. but they all just immediately forgive her and come back, with a few days. in the end. eh. could be worse could be better.

    Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023)

    Yeah, the monument still stands, because everyone on it died to starvation, within 4 days of coming back. only superheroes were able to comeback and live due to being able to take the food by force. look at the shortages from the lockdowns, and man power shortages from it. Now, imagine 50% of...

    Why have you done this?

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    yeah, the banter is great. it is slightly different, of course. in Vt2. you had the set characters more. So, you could assign personalities to them a bit easier. Job class within those characters actually affected banter as well. Like Kruber worshiping Taal, and Kerillian praising...

    1.0.3 patch is up on steam, supposed to fix the toughness bug.

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    Thoughts on the Psyker. is ok. (i'm rank 13) Perks seem like garbage. none really seem very game changing. Almost incoherent any good playstyle. biggest value for psyker seems like just the fact they free up ammo. haha. 10% damage buff. and dont use ammo with staff, and don't use...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    more bitching. the Penance system. I'll never understand why devs do dumb shit like this. Its a co-op game. Why the fuck are so many penances anti-team play? "solo a monstrosity on heresy difficulty or higher with only brain blast. no one else can do any damage to it" Half the...

    Super Mario Bros. (2022)

    Also for reference to that discussion. there is a Dragon quest movie. its on netflix if you want. came out in 2019. based on DQ 5. Didn't love it personally. it goes meta in a "meh" way.

    does the Backstory actually DO anything?

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    Arch calls it Vermintide 3. I do see alot of that sentiment as well. They appear to have learned nothing from the mistakes in V1 and V2. I havn't played enough to say that myself. but, would agree on first impressions with that. I had issues with V2's progression, crafting, etc. This...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    darktide reddit is alot of bitching about cash shop having priority over actually finishing the game. the Fomo nature of the shops. "beta" which was obviously not a beta. "release" which is clearly work in progress Early access. Kindof baffles me, anyone can think a "beta" 2 weeks before...

    Warhammer 40k: Darktide

    My initial thoughts are also a hell of alot more "where the hell am I supposed to be going?" in this one. Vermintide 2 was also not a linear hallway, with some branching paths, etc. but man this. where the fuck am I? at any given moment is real. Probably intentional. hive city. But man...

    Wednesday

    and I got to the part where the Thanksgiving scene comparison is literal. "we were living in peace with nature and the natives, till you mean white man came and murdered all these innocent women for no reason" oh fuck off. This bullshit has been repeated so often, its now the mainstream...
  37. Caliane

    Wednesday

    She wasn't my favorite character in those. but, I'd say it was more spotty. I hated the Thanksgiving scene. Shes wrong, and just being cruel. It was not a character just being herself, and that creating a clash. that that character is now virtually identical to the modern woke feminist is...

    Wednesday

    This is a weird one. I was going to pass on this. Actually having super powers, going to wizard school. That really felt like, it was missing the point. As well as latching way too much on the movie depiction, especially the silly thanksgiving scene as pointed out. but, lots of positive...

    What are you playing?

    well for that joke. idk, stunlocking, or aoe abuse has its place in alot of games. starsector. sure you can stealth archer with a Doom. and lots of people do. Give me a total space fortress 14th BG Legion though.
  40. Caliane

    What are you playing?

    basically, yes. Stealth archer is the strongest, and most versatile without blatant exploits for the most part. Melee combat is kindof shit. the play control of it. stealth archer you can actually walk around and pick shots, lead targets, and play with some skill. and of course add...
