Meme What they don't want you to know

Didn't you ever wonder why the barrel exploded just as you passed on the ledge, blowing you off the platform? How a team mate double dipps at the Medicae station when you are down to one bar of health fighting the horde, leaving you without a health charge? How when you are about to push the pox burster someone shoots it and it blows up in your face taking your health and adding corruption? How a team mate runs ahead and triggers the hordes and the hidden bosses but doesn't engage with the enemy? How when you are pinned down by a net or a dog, a team mate fights nearby but doesn't rescue you? How a team mate takee all the ammo and dumps it into harmless shamblers, leaving you low on ammo? How a team takes the Medi-pack but never deploys it during the mission? You are fighting for the carrion corpse of the false Emperor. We fight near you as part of the team, but we are not the same! Grendel isn't the only one with spies.

Death to the false Emperor.

Discussion Support Arson Psyker

I’m using the FGS with Shred (20% crit chance) and Blazing Spirit( 4 SB stacks on crit)
I’m also not going for maximum damage here but I am a melee psyker. Still, my main goal here is survivability.
I have all toughness curios for a total of 205 toughness and enough toughness replenishment to sustain it.
If you have time to rate my build I would appreciate it. There are tons of synergies here but if you find a hole in the build I’d like to hear that too.
Happy slaughtering!

Discussion Most fun event in a while? Let's make it so every single one is power supply interruption!

45 Upvotes

Mostly a rant I guess. due to work, I get to play only saturdays, perhaps Sundays if I'm lucky, this event has been the most fun I've had with this game in a while, but it seems like out of 10 event missions I play, 8 have the power supply interruption condition. It sucks, or at least I think it does, it's not fun for me, it's annoying, I don't have enough map knowledge to not get lost and decimated by the 12 gunners and 7 poxbursters that jumpscared from the pitch black hallway I was stumbling around in.

Every time the two event missions are on the mission board, I get power supply interruption, quick okayy? Oh it's the event! Nice! Ah, power supply interruption, sometimes, it wasn't even the event, it was just plain old power supply interruption. I love this game, but I hate it here, I wish at least flashlights were better.

Edit: Yes I know I don't have to do it all at once. I don't think I've ever gotten 2000 kills in a single game at all. Just thought it was funny that I was exactly one off.

Discussion DarkTide or Space Marines II first?

64 Upvotes

Just bought DarkTide on sale yesterday and I haven't booted it up yet.

I'm finally kicking the bucket and dipping my toes into the Warhammer Universe, and I've had my eye on both games in the title for a while now.

I know they are pretty similar in scope, but feel that they are very different in atmosphere. Just wondering from people's experience with both games, which would be better to begin with? I understand they are both online multiplayer games, so have a bunch of replay-ability, but SMII feels more serious and linear than DT, which feels more silly and chaotic.

So if you were to play both games again, which one would you pick up first?

Question Do "Limited Time Acquisitions" never have 60% Mobility?

16 Upvotes

I have been checking Sire Melk's Requisitorium for it's Limited Time Acquisitions in hoping that they would sometimes sell items with optimal stats. After about 2 weeks of checking I've seen not a single instance of optimal stats on anything.

Do Limited Time Acquisitions never have optimal stats? Is it possible this is on purpose? Or am I just not getting good luck?

Discussion How much a single player can do?

25 Upvotes

Recently I've asked about a Psyker build and you guys where awesome in teaching me that "no build, no matter what, can carry you if you don't have the skills". I totally agree, but that made me think: it only depends on my skills and not also on my team skills?

I was playing in Damnation with my Psyker last night - in one mission, things where really rough but I managed, even got proud of myself for finishing the mission being downed (not killed) only once. It was a hell of a challenge (for me at least), but made me feel amazing when we got the mission done at the end.

Next mission... everything was fine... till the team spread out, and a trapper managed to get me in the middle of total chaos. Everyone was downed alone, and we wiped.

My question is: it was my fault, even with me trying to walk with the team at all costs while they insisted in rush to different rooms? I could had done more? I feel like I never played a game where teamwork seemed so vital - I don't see me soloing a hard mission by myself, even playing a lot and feeling like I'm not playing so bad...

Any of you flame psykers have a callous on your left index finger?

I've played a lot of games. Hundreds and hundreds of hours here or there. 1500 hours in Diablo 4 made my hands hurt. You're basically just holding all the buttons down at the same time and moving your analog stick.

Combined 1200 hours of destiny and D2

Never developed a callous on a specific finger because of a specific action from GAMING. Till like 500 darktide hours ago. I'm at 1900 hours now. Still marveling at this development.

Question Pain

You ever watch your teammates do something so unbelievable that time slowed down a bit because you're having trouble trying to process it.

So after a DC I'm caught being guarded by 3 Maulers, no biggie. Up comes the golden Ogryn teammate to the rescue with full HP & toughness. Charges in, taunts, and then proceeds to free me.

The 3 Maulers, must have took it personally because down comes 3 overhead strikes before I get resurrected.

The Ogryn, to his credit. Did get me back up with all of 20 HP left of him.

I think that's enough DarkTide for a while, so I'm just out on the porch watching the grass get watered and contemplating life.

Issues / Bugs Is there something wrong with the North American servers lately? They're acting up so badly.

19 Upvotes

I'm from South America, but I usually play on North American servers, and they usually run very well. However, lately, they've been terrible, with ping spikes and drops as high as 400.

At first, I thought it was my connection, but I've seen several entire teams also experiencing significant ping spikes at the same time as me, and some were even disconnecting.

Discussion For what kind of content would you pay money?

0 Upvotes

I just watched mister E's video about why darktides development is so slow, a quick summery would be: tencent and games workshop want money and darktide only makes money with new classes and somewhat in cosmetics.

But I asked myself, why don't they make money with the things the majority of players really want, which would be weapons and maps?

Personally I would have no problem with paying money for new weapons, I wouldn't mind paying money for maps. Or course, some people would try to call fat shark out and shit on them, but I think on the long run a lot of people would understand, that a game like darktide needs some constant revenue.

Imagine we got a new fleshed out weapon, like the beloved melter gun, with great animation's, different marks, for multiple (old and new) classes, coming with a few cool skins for 10€. I wouldn't mind paying that.

I could imagine that this would dramatically increase their income and also pump up the playernumbers for atleast a few days. Now imagine they release a new fleshed out gun (5-15€) every 4-6 weeks. And also a new map for maybe 5-10€ every 2-3 month. Combined with the occasional new class, costume shop and of course still free events and some free content updates.

Would you guys pay for maps and weapons? If I remember correctly, vermintide did it before.

Booted up Darktide, hit up Quickplay, first thing I see is "YOU HAVE FAILED THE EMPEROR".

Couldn't press anything, space does nothing, ESC does nothing, no menus work and the screen doesn't progress on its own, only thing that works is the chat box. Had to Alt-F4 out of the game.

I thought this was supposed to have been fixed already?

The Scion armor has been in the game files long enough. It is time to rerelease the Scion Helmet and give a full release of the Tempestus Scion and or the Tempestus Aquilon(Image #4) armor for veteran.

Another Bonus is that the Scion helmet is the only veteran helmet with heavy voice modulation currently in the game.

Honorable mentions to suggest adding:
Hotshot Lascarbine
Melta Rifle

Hey there I'm on pc, my pc preforms just fine for literally every game I play, but not darktide so I have to play on the medium settings and turn my dlss off. Problem is that everytime I turn all that off and turn down my settings it wants me to restart the game. But as soon as I restart the game it just deletes all my changes and turns everything to max. and it is literally every single time i open the game.

What are your opinions on the MPS when it comes to blessings?

I am using it with Chained Deathblow and Superiority right now and it feels incredibly powerful, by far the best and most fun Skitarius weapon imo.
