[@light819]

more than happy to see the game get more depth. build and run variety are kings in games like this.

[@zonolith5912]

100%, I feel the same. I feel the fact there isn't a set sub class, instead you make your sub class based around what you feel is best with your chosen weapons is the ideal way to handle the player experience of being the people we are, rejects, not regular soldiers. I love it.

[@Aikurisu]

Gotta say, this looks GREAT. Here's hoping there will be plans to introduce additional skill trees in the future after this overhaul's initial release because this will be a far better alternative to say the Vermintide model of having different classes for each character. This feels like we'll have more customization options than that anyway and I for one can't wait to visit the Meat Grinder.

[@BigGomer]

in the first dev post they mentioned that something along the lines of this new skill tree system will let them add more in the future much easier then the old one obviously

[@Aikurisu]

@@BigGomer Credit where credit's due then. Wish they had the sense to talk about all this before launch but I'm fine with seeing this game finally take the next step toward what it should have always been.

the best thing about it is that it shows that voice of the core gameplay devs is taking over MTX

[@brocrastinator6223]

One thing this system allows for that Vermintide didn’t is the ability to not just add more classes, but to add new characters Vermintide was limited in it because they had preset characters with pre-made backgrounds But in Darktide they don’t have that, so I’m hoping we get a tech adept of some kind Give him some fancy AdMech weapons, make one of his subclasses a Heretek and let him use a Xenos weapon So much potential for new content So here’s hoping this is the start of something great!

I started a new game of CP2077 and it’s been hard to put down. New skill system is great and world feels more alive. I have an AMD GPU and CP2077 always looked “flat” to me. CDPR has done something graphically to make it look a lot better to me.

Main sharpshooter, and I'm the occasional psyker enthusiast. Gotta say, I love the idea of being a commander type role and the addition of stealth to veteran. Also this stuff gives psyker a lot of fun tools I wanna play with.

Would love a map or mission where we are phasing in and out of the warp or something, or a map where we are running support for some astartes...

[@Fire_Gaming64]

The new abilities are a choice between the current point shooting but better, a combat knockback/taunt or you can go invisible for a bit to surprise an enemy who could stagger you, I guess. They also give you a Krak, Frag or Smoke grenade option. No bad options, I'm glad. I'll prolly go with the taunt for crowd control, then clean them up with my Power Sword, fr.

[@linearparadox9409]

​@infrared6973 as someone with a couple thousand hours in the 'tide games, I can tell you that your mentality of wanting to learn, asking others for input, and willingness to seek out tips from other sources, already puts you leagues ahead of the average shmuck. 😉 As for tips? Oh boy. Hard to sum up without writing a wall of text. Learn to block and dodge. As you've probably seen watching Damnation runs, it's very important. Awareness; it's easy to fall into a trance of slaughtering heretics, as the game is VERY good at delivering that dopamine loop of crunchy hits and satisfying cleaves, but don't let that blind you to specials or objectives that need completed. Objectives; on that topic, as you probably noticed, most objectives put you into a perma-horde mode until completed. Don't waste time completing them or you'll die to attrition. Experiment with weapons to find what works for you and synergizes with your playstyle, just know that (at the moment) some weapons are just undertuned stat-wise. No weapon is unusable, but with some you're signing yourself up to do extra work for less payout.i won't say which weapons here both for the length of the post, and because the upcoming patch may rebalance them and render it all outdated anyway xD And just like with weapons, try other classes too. Just 'cause you were recommended Zealot doesn't mean you have to stay on it ;) And lastly, have fun! 😁

I understand that working on a game for several years is cost intensive, especially if you don't have a large saving.

The hype is a mighty tool, if you use it well it will be remembered.

@@leonla598 Most of the time it's not the developers rushing a release, but their publishers or company executives. For the most part I'm praising the devs who keep busting their ass despite likely being pigeonholed into focusing on cosmetics and release windows. Unfortunately, you can't do much without money and if that dried up before they could drop the game, most devs wouldn't be around to get paid to keep the updates rolling. It's unfortunate, but recovering from a rocky release shows the devs care more than just making money and running.

[@VicDubLu]

I am very happy about this update. It is so very much needed and i am truly excited for it. The problem i have with it is that the game waa clearly released too early. It should have been officially released in late 2023. Fatshark investors probably grew impatient and wanted to see results but for me, as a consumer, this doesnt count. The game started out incredibly bad. So limiting and unsatisfying with so many features missing. The player base shrunk to around 5k active players. It was painful to look at the fall of this game eventhough we had all the hype imaginable before release. Since this was the 2nd time this happened i truly believe that it will also happen a third time. But at the same time id like to believe that you guy's at the HQ know better than to fuck it up a 3rd time. This update is a make or break update. It will either revive the game with all its glory or completely ruin it. I hope you managed to work everything out so people will stick to the game for a whole now.

That actually makes sense instead of the unfunny idiots saying "Darktide is finally leaving early access derp derp."

Datamined assets aren't the whole story, they went out of their way to try new things. Here's what the lead combat designer said about the new trees in an interview: "When working with this we started out actually building between seven and nine different builds per class and then we tested that, refined them and then reversed engineered that into the talent trees that you see. Basically picking apart what makes them tick, making that available throughout the talent tree and then you know just handing that over to the player to see where that lands. It's been a fun ride."
