[@Clips101YT]

Underated af channel would love to play with you someday

[@Decathect007]

Just got dark tide today. Absolutely loving it and also loving being able to play it and watch you play it at the same time lol keep up the good work

[@akabreadley]

Hey that's wonderful! Have fun! We can learn this beast together lol

[@thomasoneal6652]

Welcome to Atoma fellow reject! We’re always glad to have another help us against these heretics!

[@akabreadley]

For the Emperor!

for what it's worth i would prefer to see every video for this character, but also have no issue with you using another slot for another character, you need a balance amigo, but i would be lying if i said i wouldn't be sad to see everygame of your first character and the skill progress !

[@akabreadley]

This is ultimately what I've decided to do! I think seeing a new player experience from start to "finish" is appealing. So I've decided this game will be just for recording purposes to get the most authentic experience and genuine reactions to things :) Appreciate you taking the time to comment this!

Fun fact about the beast of nurgle Breadley. The beast will only eat you if you are already affected by his puke. You can still melee them, but you just need to be careful, so you do not step in their slime on the ground. You can play this game however you want man. I would personally want to see your reaction to the new things. Basically, anything that is a first time experience I think would be a good idea to make into a video. For example, the first time you attempt the special assignment mission. But it is up to you, I do not mind if you play off-screen, it is your game, you do what you want. I think it would be cool to see a big jump in your performance.

[@akabreadley]

Oh shoot dang, so I didn't need to kite it so far away without hitting it lol. I just assumed he'd wanna hug me with his teeth so I booked it. Thanks for the tip, ill avoid is nastiness lol And yeah I appreciate this take on it. And I think you're right. The point of this series was to be excited and surprised about new things while recording to get an authentic reaction. Appreciate your view on this and you taking the time to answer it.

Love the content! I’m sure you’re seeing these a lot because I’m binging them. Don’t be scared to use stimms! Blue ones give you better stamina regen, yellow ones let you use you’re abilities more often, red ones make you do 50% more damage and add 50% more rending (cutting through armor) and the green ones heal you for one wound and remove your corruption! *edit; I forgot to mention! If you hold down the aim button you can stimm your teammate

[@akabreadley]

The fact you're bingeing my content is so flattering! And I definitely need to use the stimms! Also the fact you can use them on your teammates is such a cool feature!

[@CaptainButtonMasher]

Get well soon Mr and Mrs Loaf. I love seeing you develop and discover new things along the way. We can tell you're having fun and that makes it fun to watch. Love this game.

[@akabreadley]

Hey thank you! Thank you for being a member of the loaf! This game is a gem! Quickly becoming an all time favorite of mine

2:00 - "My reflexes are pretty bad while sick", he says, as he nails a clean headshot on a long-range sniper in cover xD 6:00 - You actually did something incredibly useful here, possibly accidentally xD By dragging the beast away from the rest of your team, you gave them time to recover Lamark, heal up, reset, find ammo, and they were ready by the time you looped back towards them. The only thing that could have made that better is more sliding to not get absolutely blasted by gunners. 9:30 - Yeah, the elevators are normally a nice reset, especially on higher difficulties. I like it cuz it's a good spot to have a sip of tea IRL and breath for a second after 10 minutes of white-knuckling my way through infinite hordes. 12:30 - I think you playing without recording is absolutely no issue. The reason I was drawn to this series originally is that I can't go back and wipe my memories to enjoy the discovery of learning the game again, but I can at least see someone else do it. It is also fun seeing the lower-difficulty stuff again now I'm on my havoc grind where every mission is never-ending hordes of specialists in pitch blackness. It's not necessary to see every small step though, I'd enjoy the series anyway. Would be nice to have a little snippet at the start going over new talents, weapons, and things you've discovered off-screen in that case though. 16:00 - I think the only reasonable answer I can give as a non-youtuber non-entertainer is to try different things and see what works? I have no clue about editing. 20:20 - Yup. AI is completely banned in the Imperium due to a little AI revolt that happened a few thousand years ago that nearly wiped out humanity. Now, if you want ANY automation at all, you need a human brain to do it... even if that brain has been taken from it's body. 25:16 - I actually didn't know an idol could spawn there. Huh. I guess I'll have to check that corner in future :) 26:20 - Dogs are actually really hard to dodge, their hurtboxes are massive. It's possible, but unreliable. Easiest way of avoiding dogs eating you is to block-push them. 28:50 - Chaos spawns are what happens when a faithful cultist of the dark gods tries to attain daemonhood and fails. Basically, warp energy mutates them into a mindless killing machine because they can't handle the raw power of the warp. 31:00 - Nice! That's how you handle dogs :) 34:50 - Yup. Ogryn's 3 possible abilities are big charge, AoE taunt, or a huge ranged fire speed boost (ALL THE DAKKA!) EDIT: Oh, and you might also like to know the 3 possible Zealot abilities from your talent tree are an upgraded version of your charge (left path), big AoE stun & toughness regeneration for the whole team (middle path) or invisibility with a huge backstab damage amp (right path) 35:30 - This is the newest mission. Basically, not all is well in the Nurgle camp. Their leader guy (Wolfer) is now being supplanted by a cult (the cult of admonition) and he's not happy about his authority being challenged. While Wolfer is more about more "normal" troops with guns & armor, the cult is more into warp shenanigans and magic. What was the ritual about? Were they trying to summon something? If so, what? All questions for missions they'll add in the future. Anyways, as usual, was fun to watch and write down my thoughts & feedback as you went. GG!

[@akabreadley]

I genuinely look forward to your comment each time I upload. That doesn't mean you need to obligated to comment each time, but know its appreciated! Thank you for your thoughts on the playing offline bit, I think you're right that the appeal of this series is to see my journey from noob to hopefully less noob lol. So I'm going to keep it that way. I'll definitely be experimenting with things as we go along, but I'll keep the core of my channel in tact! As always, thank you for tuning in. Thank you for being a part of the loaf!

[@draak4066]

And yet another upload from our favourite loaf! fun watching you try and fight the bosses :)

[@akabreadley]

Thank you for tuning in again! Glad you're enjoying the noobiness lol

You can get weapon mastery easily from 0 to 20 by buying like ~15 weapons you want to master from the shop and consecrating them once to make them sacrificable for the mastery, takes like 300K ducats and 3K plasteel Push poxbursters away by using attack while blocking (this usually makes them blow up safe distance away) or use ranged/throwing knifes before they get close In the Inspect menu of the melee weapon you can see the "swing pattern", some have a pattern of heavy-heavy-light-light-repeat, just heavies or lights or something else for best horde clear or for strong singular enemies Wounds are how many times you can go down, they're the sections in your HP

[@akabreadley]

This is wonderful! I'll inspect my weapons so I can start getting used to their patterns. I have no idea how the weapon upgrading works yet so ill mess around with that in the next part. AH thats what wounds mean. Thank you for all the tips. This was super helpful

[@legitbiscuit4969]

@@akabreadley To add onto what the op said, when pushing bursters I think you need to also back dodge to get to a safe distance. (you might not always half to if you push them at the max distance but it's a good habit to build)

[@akabreadley]

I shall start putting this into practice! Thanks for the tip!

[@legitbiscuit4969]

@@akabreadley Oh yeah one more thing I remembered watching the video, same thing with hounds, when they're pouncing at you, you can shove them out the air then follow up. The timing window in it is super generous and the best way to deal with them imo.

[@akabreadley]

@@legitbiscuit4969 yeah I noticed that as well! Dodging them doesn't appear to work very well lol

[@vaporwavertv6444]

I’m so jaded it’s nice to watch someone new at the game and experiencing everything for the first time. If you’re interested in seeing what’s possible with the combat and gameplay of Darktide watch Mr. unc. He streams and posts vids regularly.

[@akabreadley]

Thanks for tuning in! Absolutely love this game. And ill add him to my list of folks to check out. Thanks for the suggestion!

[@ryanevans6870]

I think it would be nice to see jumps in your skill level from playing on your own

[@akabreadley]

This is a good take on it! Still trying to think of what to do, but thank you for your thoughts on it

[@thomasoneal6652]

A Beast of Nurgle is just a big ol’ puppy dog that wants to play and lick ya with its bile breath. Just wait until you discover that ‘Dance/rhythm’ while playing this one. To fluidly move about, shooting a few fodder here, quick switch to melee and chop up some more, sprint on and become an unstoppable reject! It’s one reason I keep coming back to game over and over. You can just zone out and purge! Use that cheer often btw! Most of the time the entire team will echo in response 🤓 As far as you wanting to play offline/off stream, just play when you get the itch, have a good time, and if you happen to have a sick match or something interesting happens, record that replay and save it for a future vid. You know sometimes only the craziest of stuff happens when you don’t stream lol As long as you are enjoying yourself and the game, that’s what the viewers like! Cheers!

[@akabreadley]

Appreciate ya! Thanks for the thoughtful comment!
