Just checkin....
people will realize its cleave sucks, and decide to go for more of it
wrath is 25% cleave with 5 stacks on saw, for 125%
people will likely see 125% cleave vs -60% hitmass and take the cleave cuz the number is bigger
if they even know that hitmass affects cleave in the first place
yea
chopchopchopchopchop
Seems like it would scale nuttily together
Refined lethality + shock&awe prob the best?
decimator
power gives you both damage and even more cleave
How bad is the cleave really
our brains are not geared to do that kind of comparison on the fly
except path maybe with some ancient chinese wisdom
@lethal quartz am i wrong to say that saw without cleave feels like pulling teeth
Refined lethality seems like a big chunk of extra damage consistently
How’s boss dmg ?
kinda yeah
I saw that part in the gameplay but like
Do I rly need more on top of shock&awe
i personally pair shock n awe with either shred or decimator
Calling in your dad
the gun build looks really good no?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0ad4laAflI @novel oracle very well played btw
Wishlist Hive Scum now! https://fatshark.games/EpicCole_HS
this is really fun but man this probably needs a nerf
https://darktide.gameslantern.com/build-editor?id=a07920be-dc05-42a0-a2b4-9909bf17087c
Is this another case of building more dot stack faster is actually better than +weakspot damage vs dotted enemies
I think that with the release of hive ganger, it'll be the perfect time to play glugger
I was using refined lethality and I felt the cleave I had was fine but that wasn’t in say havoc 40 in the havocs I played I was using chainsword
Presumably if you have 1 cleave vs 1 hit mass enemy, wrath brings you up to 3 targets but shock and awe plus 3 stacks of battering strikes brings you up to 4 targets?
Or do I not understand cleave
Consider mass reduction as inverse, so /0.4 is actually x2.5
Note the x sign here
You can get other cleave benefits
Let’s say you get +50% cleave from tree
So the 1 hit mass enemy goes down to 0.4, and with three stacks of BS you're at 1.3 cleave, hitting 4 enemies, right?
No im hitting YOU
What’s BS again
Did anyone try shivs with rampage? If so, thoughts?
dope as hell
Let’s just assume ur cleave is n
With max battering strikes and shock&awe your effective cleave is 3.75n
With max battering strikes and max wrath your effective cleave is 2.75n
Havoc 40 masochism with new glass cannon class in Darktide
00:00 : Stream Start
01:37:50 : 4 Hive Scum H40 clear
Wishlist the Class here:
So shock and awe would take an attack with a hitmass of 1 and functionally increase it to 2.5, so it's functionally a 150% cleave increase
let’s just assume it’s 9am and I’m not comprehending math rn
Yes. Same math. 1.5/0.4=3.75
Idk if anyone here saw 31, the movie by rob zombie, but the antagonist at the end of the movie has dual switchblades, and the dual shivs might be perfect for a cosplay haha
Shock and awe better value
I shall watch this now
fucking slaps but you gotta learn the short range of your heavies or you'll whiff on some crusher headshots while dodging
Shock & awe is actually better than most cleave blessings in the game just by how it works

Unfortunately it’s not available on that many weapons
wetnoodle
with no form of cleave
And it amplifies other cleave talents
Ok that’s yikes
It prob needs cleave from stims/melee?
It's better solely because it's multiplicative and everything else is additive
Yes
and now ill add battering strikes and my actual saw
Nah it’s better because it’s x2.5 effective cleave from a single kill
You need to swing 5 times for wrath to work at max value which is barely higher
And u can lose it all from misses
Even if u had no other cleave bonus
Shock&awe still mogs wrath
Holy shit that cleave is awful
@lethal quartz your hive scum looks rly good btw I fuck with the shirtless look
Can you show us the health bar of a horde enemy with one stack of toxin from crit
Outside of sunder/perfect strike, shock&awe mogs basically every other cleave blessing
75% power from punk rage + 50% from decimator
-60% hitmass from shock and awe
+50% from BS and +50% from punk rage subnode
shotgunners have a hitmass of 5 iirc
Probably last question for now… boom bringer, yay or nay? Looks like it’ll be my favorite blitz.
Bruh
good panic button but you'll have to really gauage when to use
cuz 2 at a time
you make me moist with this
Frankly disappointing to hear
close enough, welcome back sienna fire sword
When does hive scum come out specifically
15 CET
6 hours give or take
5hrs 45m roughly
fuuuuuck
or 16 CET 😛
Yeah I tried to get back to sleep, that shit is not happening
Why did I have to wake up at 4 am
I ought to play some darktide to get my money up
Its issue is low capacity + long deploy
is there a point in special action of the cleaver?
Should add battering momentum for the memes
But it’s so damn cool
remember that it can do this
nah saw is already strapped for points
Gotta be 20% crit from dodge
Why does the right side keystone look like that 😮
no comment
Lmaoooo
oh boy the SAW will be new "meta" and everybody will be running with one for 1st week
Because of how the other nodes are connected
No sirree I foresee a crowbar in my future
The actual question is why was that matrix so important to them
then they have to learn how to deal with latching attacks
A hunter is a hunter, even in a dream
Crowbar or shivs, with how goddamn slow the saw is
Gone
crowbars seems slower than saw
Reduced to paste
this class is a gonna be a lot harder to play than braindead arbitrator, meaning not as many people can just walk through it 
You think so? Didn’t really look that way when I first saw it
crowbar operats smimilar to pickax from ogryn
We need a chrome spray blitz.
not the slowest like hammer but slower than most wepons
the amount of times we tried oubliette and cole gets pancaked
Amp up the rampage.
imagine if there weren't a million tiny pieces of geometry to get stuck on
on any map
or terrain or saw trap
imagine
@full star Does crowbar have a middle tier.
Was epic, presumably

i literally got stuck on a step the otherday, just running in place 
there is only one tier of crowbar
i think
😄
I forget the mark numbers and names for the weapons.
So I vaguely reference always.
crowbar is pretty fast in blunt when youre melee specced
the issue is how unsafe the beak mode is, especially against the armor youre probably using it on
Splat
I wanna use dual auto guns.
crowbar has no marks
The special action does make it feel like two marks
Swapping to hook mode
Oooh
Hook mode is slower and better for single target
So the blunt would be for hordes and the hook for elites etc.
It also hits twice on heavy attacks
Nice
That looks clean as fuck
I want to be range specced.
most people wont realize this for a long time but that first upward heavy isnt a cleavy one, its more for single target
there is a single target combo on the blunt side if you need it in a pinch
I’m learning
which its looping that one and the next light which is an overhead
can opener works on all hook mode attacks btw
we just didnt' update its description in time
welcome back VT2 crowbill
easier than making a new blessing
Huge can opener W
Not shields I think
something i just thought of, sooooooo many people don't use combos
shields are their own thing
thats gonna be funny
but more just for the effects of can opener for dmg calc on health dmg
But from what I've seen, they sure can
(the former is boosted a LOT by the heavy atk rending rampage subnode)
Holy nutballs
If im calculating correctly a single crit with bonesaw with toxic mania should easily break 600 toxin damage if in rampage
600 damage from the duration of the toxin applied
a single crit heavy rip or a single crit attack period?
Oh you only get to 3 stacks if it latches?
are dots melee ?
Derp

I profusely apologise for not having memorised every talent yet 
does anyone know what time the new class releases
I'm between naming my scummer Dr House or Dr Noooo
ok im getting off pc to get ready to sleep
no more hive scum clips
Alright, I'mma sleep now, gnight y'all
Dr Strangescum
is it out?
The actual game update just dropped, so soon hopefully
Hopefully when I wake up, we get Hive Scum
5 hours
Yes
i'm apparantly updating tide
5 hours ago
Soon
can't sleep
Delayed till Next Week™
Are we here yet?
this would make me investigate the mouthfeel of my shotgun
I'm just in bed with my kindle blasting the trench map soundtrack
noticed they took community feedback to allow operatives to wear a G-string
female playtester lamented having sports bra while trying to enjoy tattoos
so it worked out
I got banned from a gun show by ranking them based on this before
gotta do the taste test, how else do you evaluate a shotgun?
Im never gonna get the chance to play scum cuz when it actually drops im gonna recieve billions of pings per second about xyz thing and how this thing works and what this does and how do I make my build better
Lmao
Just swap user names with me
be assertive; some questions are dumb and should be replied with 'read the talent pls' (srsly some ppl don't fking read or they read but can't comprehend simple information)
Cant wait to make a rocket spam build
How?
Leave the server 
They have an ability that just makes them whip out a rocket launcher out of nowhere and im gonna slap all the cooldown reductions I can
Just setup an automessage that all questions will be forwarded to vamp
True @lethal quartz youll take over being the shepard, right?
Vamp set it up to forward all questions to Cole
Mute discord for today
Don't worry I will misinform the newbies by telling them to invest in melk coin
if this were an email system
I'd have mine just autoreply a message forwarding everyone to kuli's guide

Lolol
Cole wake up, we have to play strange scum games now
Cole you're gonna get to play it early again lmfao
Tell them the "collect 16 grimmoires/scripture" task is real easy 
Do you get early Download?
patch just came out
like on steam
check yourself
Ok
probably for no mans land and stuff
It's like every time there's a Darktide update my internet begins breaking
More than likely divine intervention trying to save me
And the class? Purchasable in a few hours?
in like 7 hours
16:00 German time (4pm for those who can count past 12
)
It's also the same for central Europe
Norway, denmark, France, etc.
even backwater poland
The juicy prize
wooaahhh thats crazy whys this here
Is it going to be the new meta class?
no
Lol are you sure? For us according to the in game countdown it should've been at 8pm
I was told my cole. He should know
He's purple for an amazing reason
if you don't die on scum
Is the glass cannon class going to be the meta?
get dlc, I KNOW I WANT TO BUY IT BUT I HAVE TO WAIT
then your fundamentals are good enough to live through most anything
🤷 I don’t know much about it
scum, just hours away
I said it joking, of course it won't be meta
If you mean epic Cole he already misinformed me on the arbites class personality saying he was using the one I was asking, check his video and he wasn't using maul
No malice behind it could've just been forgetful
hive scum born after december 2nd only know 2 things
kill fucking everything
and die
given this community cannot live without golden toughness and dueling sword and scum has neither
AND the lowest DR nd worst toughness regen of any class by far
I would be surprised if they even think the class is good let alone meta
argh!
Mission terminal UI change again 
Aw man
It looks better
The right vid crashed my discord
I will say it does look fun to play as a certified tweaker
thats just how fragile they are
guy
guys ass
I got a name for my Ganger
@lethal quartz do we know when backend error will not happen
Crack O'Snortily
no
😄
talking in test rn about it
Sir Crackalot
METHod Man
I was also considereding Sniff Whitepowder and S'nort Dadroog
Tony Montana
dude nothing even changed for vet
🤷🏻
Ne ne sais pas rien 🤷🏻
I just trust him.
Where can you look up the time?
btw new music on Morningstar slaps
reset everything as a force of habit smh
is Stimmothy
The 'fuck you' shadow change
When's the release
in more than 2
Weren't loadouts karked all classes-wide last patch or something? That's the only reason I see why they would reset them.
Stimmy The Stimmer
they were cuz the entire tree changed
nothing changed this time
so theres no reason for there to be a reset
I'm probably gonna name them something normal
force of habit
Yes, but I'm not typing skill tree changes wise, just the game having issues with selecting loadouts from available selection
LMAO
say you have 5 loadouts; the game would sometimes choose a "sixth" loadout that wasn't evenb listed
gonna be 3 billion methanies and stimmothys, maybe the occasional breaking bad reference
wouldn't surprise me if it's for the QoL feature with aura/blitz/ability
i love re-making all my loadouts it's like a memory game
point
I might go opposite way then
make a bald guy
Did it happen AGAIN?
called Mr Clean
apparently
I JUST RECONFIGURED MY FUCKING VET CRIT DB BUILD YESTERDAY! FOR FUCK SAKE.
oh you also can't forget the guy named just Tylenol cause they think they funny
Can you believe it guys, 5 hrs till scum
I know just saying something he told me, you can see it when you launch the game, on the news hive scum release there is a count down on how much time before it's available
If you revive a team mate as a hive scum
is it Save Scumming?
100%
i just caught newtype in the hub for 2s then he vanished lol
#soon
I'm hopping in rn I might see you
What is ur evil scum name
Scum potion lend me vigor
Rare species
Cole (im not on scum)
Rage
Mournigstar Today:
Can't Scum Nation
erectile dyscumtion
I am unable to scum
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
fuck thats a great name
Also
It is, isnt it
can't they just unlock it rn
but its 1 character more
11/10
Found you!
rude
That is not an insult, look at the bicep on that man
it should be very obvious if its me
I dont see the counter 🫠
I guess i am blind
Too many stims
Ogryn 
i usually just come up with a name while I'm making the character. Arbites was difficult cause I wanted a paired name but couldn't think of shit that wasn't some reference
arbites and dog are individual references for me
Judge Judy and Goddard
I wanted to use numbesr for my arbites but u can't even do that because fs SUCKS
Is on the character select page, on the top right of your screen where the latest news roll
like, noone give a shit if i named my guy Calvin and the dog Hobbes, I wanted to come up with something cool
I can't lie though i did like seeing EustaceBagg and Courage
Name your dog Tax and yourself Collector
What the heck
eh, I gave up and i made the cop Midas, and the dog Minos
Shop slop
bwa
@lethal quartz
at least Midas is good for callouts. except for that one guy on comms that insisted it was pronounced Meedus
oh i just noticed this update gave arbitator another nerf

good

athonian tunnel rats will be the preemo slop for this patch
unintentionally making the modifier too hard so we made it harder for funsies
it seemz
When can we buy new class 🙁
soon
It's only for the mines If I recall correctly

the regen was 60s
before
and btw
that patch note is wrong
that's an awfullly low amount of aquilas
you fucking twat
holy moly
playtester dirt money
paid in company silver
Oh so just this?
scrips
Fair nerf honestly
Not that
Honestly it will change much beyond
You need to have a brain with them now
6 hours or so
yummy skins
yup
Krieg, is that you ?
no not even a little bit
do you think kriegers are the sole proprietors of gasmasks in the setting
they meanst kreig from bl2
I think 16:00cet is 10am est
i mean the white and red looks p krieg
Still cant find it
#iamuseless 🫠🤣
i might end up buying a skull mask... if the individual ones are 700 i can just pick one up
What time does hive scum release?
We got a decent amount of skull masks at this point they should release a black hooded robe and a giant scythe for the ogryn
People disagree about that. Some say in five, some say in seven hours
in about 6 hours
Ok, wait ive found it.
My steam page says in four hours
Is all good, I'll do a screenshot once I'm done with the update but it looks it is really at 16 since a fatshark personnel posted a post with the time. I'm never trusting the hecking game countdown again
Oh good I can sleep tonight
Thank you sibling
I found it. For me it says in four hours
JAWOHL
Nice, I'm so glad then it won't be 8pm
What time Zone are you in?
the steam release thing has always been kinda fucky
Not really
Same as yours
For Germany it will seem to release at 4pm as ive said before
Cool. Afternoon then instead of evening
Also the steam release time is the same for every timezone
Indeed 
It's out in 4 hours and 14 minutes
I'll have some errands to run in the meanwhile. Maybe i can squeeeze in a workout in the meantime. Sweat for the sweatgod....
time to play 8 games on farttide
Do 10 pushups per hour you wait
10 situps
10 squatts.
That should give you constant low workout to keep you up until launch.
Alternative: the construction worker diet. Cigarettes, Monster and regret
Very good.
@north saddle btw this is what I meant by in game countdown and indeed it is still wrong if it's out a 4pm. Never believing this again
Damn bruv
the skins are juicy af
TBH I am of belief that FS decided to go Scummo
because in opposition to Arby
Scummo can have any skin they want
full freedom
any rags and odd bits
I'm scumming as we speak
The gutter goggles don't look so cool to me
Rest is pretty cool
guys, how do I play the new mission from terminal? I do not see anything new there
I think you'll have to wait for the class to drop out
3 hours brothers and sisters till we all can rejoice in the taking of the drugs
it always take a bit of time for the game to update every client, content to activate and etc...this is just preload
It's not drugs
it's stimms
PG Rated and Safe for Everyone
Its drugs

This is the worst question ever, but can someone explain to me what rending does
Do not let the heathen deceive you brothers
Pregnant react this message if youre ready to scum
where is new story campaign
I just want to shoot relentlessly akimbo style
WAIT, we can buy hivescum stuff?
increase dmg vs armor, basically give weapons brittleness and stuff
In short, Rending modifies your attacks ADM against armour types by the amount of Rending.
No
No
finesse is headshot dmg and crit dmg
that's cleave
Weak spot and crit damage
Ah gotcha thank you
imma get that mask so I can roleplay as a psycho from borderlands :)
Havoc 33 and I didn’t know what those were lol
Finesse also slightly raises attack speed if it's a stat on a weapon
Funky but it's shart fart
Fatshark try to push class and patch at the same time (impossible)
Yup
gotta wait till 5 am
Well it's okay
Just to sync the servers apparently
the game has a lot of hidden stats and mechanics
5am what
pst
like Shmirglebloop and Stank Resistance.
Gotta wait until: insert non descriptive time here
Only est is valid
FINALLY
Where are you from so I can make fun of you properly

sounds pretty European to me, they LOVE making fun of americans :3
I beseech, beg, and cry out to great fat fish in Sweden, we get mobian 53rd, havoc armor for hive scum
Everyone makes fun of Americans
Watch it be a frenchman
americans make fun of americans
as it should be
Unfortunately
oh fudge, you right, I love the french for that tho, they have the best witticisms(according to monty python)
oh well at least they reset all of our trees so i get to sit here the next three hours figuring out what the actual FUCK my trees were for the 4 classes i dont play often
🙃
Just click nodes until it works
just spec it next time you play
Don't you have an excel sheet with screens of your different talents and the damage calculator on the side?
i would, but i have them normally ready to go for havoc slot fills
Did they seriously reset our fucking trees again
I dont even have the timer on that thing. Ive been shown on the picture that i sent here.
i fuckin knew i should have documented them but i was too trusting
Good thing I use like 2 builds
zealot is probably the only one i COULD find, because i think a friend sent me a modified one specifically for a book swap in for my shroudfield, but the other two, fuck knows
Yeah that's what I was talking about untrustworthy apparently
Unlopular opinion, i am not getting the cosmetics.
I could afford them.
I just dont wanna 
I cant wait to get my hands on the pistols tho
psyker at least has the fuckin guide and i know most of mine are on there
Crowber
Vanilla icecream is best, dont need no fancy sprinkles
Gordan freeman
I have only 1 build I wanna make tbh
Needler, Bonesaw, Chem nades
full toxic fella
Dotman
The fart smella
Muh stoppingpowa
1911's go brrrr
"Two hive wars" 
he is bringing the strongest weapons against Nurgle:
The closest thing we'll get to Joker from the DC universe
My headcanon is he is covering his bonesaw in bleach
his 'chem nades' are just Tide Pods
Ganger has way more cool shit than arbites got tbh
and his needler is packed wth soap
RUDE GIVE ME
Exactly
the ultimate weapon against Nurgle Cultist
the Cleaning Supplies Cartel
also known as
im totally getting hive scum premium tho
Squeaky Cleaners
You heard of Peaky Blinders and of Tread Lightliest, but it's Squeaky Cleaners who gonna rule Atoma
Found the rich posh mf'er 
Indeed 
Careful you may spawn a great clean one
I NEEEED my drug addict and their stimmies!
Considering arbiter only has like 5 cosmetics, scum probably ain't gonna be much different for a while
I'll rep the Show for my first hive scum
I don't think so
plus if I can afford funny gummies, I can afford to spend the same on darktide drug addicts
the beauty of Scum is that there are technically no limitations for Gangers outfits
FS can go bananas
New cosmetics just dropped
Arbys are muuuuch more GW-limited what you can put on them
Gangers though? Go nuts.
I can't wait for the space marine cosmetics

Hopefully not on just reskins
Once again, Fatshark breaking all our mods every update
speaking of that, I cant wait for the python commandos
chaxes are a chaos made weapon I guess
They're a staple of khorne but not exclusive to chaos factions lol
watch it be another useless garbo for $10 
With the stimm obsession Idk it makes me think of Louis and the pills
nice, 45s for nades? dope! Was it 45s be4?
i really hope it's not
Glasgowian Glass Gobblers
looking for things to be good in new warbonds has been a waste of time for half a year at this point
dont care, I got enough SC, I will COLLECT ✨
I'm not touching HD2 till they make the game actually hard on high difficulties again
i dont rly use melee, i should... but the AR with grenade launcher is kinda sick. hopefully its good...
Birmy Bram Brokers
AH has refused to nerf the meta, and overpowered explosive weapons have solidified themselves as the go to "I just want to win" guns
new warbonds aren't realistically going to be able to compete with them without just being direct upgrades to them
I feel like I remember seeing you there
yus
because that is the pit AH has dug for themselves by refusing to nerf
yes
Not you
it's pretty good lol, 95 dmg and 40 rounds/mag
"Pretty good"
oh nice, has it released? dont mean to be offtopic, but
looks like its as bulky as a pulse rifle from alien, I LOVE IT
im sorry, ABSOLUTELY PEAK is what I meant.
No it was 60s
And they didnt need a fuckin buff
40 bullets uh
nah it was leaked
I'll wait for reviews, need to see the minigun in action
does it even have a downside ?
Sloptubers will say it's trash cuz it's not medium pen and cant oneshot hulks
you bet lol
thought the ammo capacity would be the downside but seems like that's not the case
honestly nobody uses arbites grenade so i'm happy for that change.
minigun, thematically, is so cool. i was really hoping for the big stealth leak that came out. that is infintely more fun imo
Devs don't give a shit about balancing weapons anymore
ik ik
i wish they didn't kill mines for it tho
i think the downside to the new ar is that the game is now 152gb
I think thats later, they love making stuff and shelving it for later
I think that one got delayed cuz of the performance issues
It woulda dropped like a month ago otherwise
can you believe it guys, 200gb, just 48gb away
So:
- patch notes say 60,
- it's actually 45?
Never change, FS 
They're doing the easy hype builder warbond now instead
totally, new mission types, different strategies, im all for. i havent played for months after hitting 150, but that will bring me back for sure
ANYWAYS BACK TO DARKTIDE, I REALLY wanna take that new mask in the shop and recreating the psycho from borderlands
D10's still easy so I got no reason to come back
New map isn't even on rotation lmao
that Shivs made in a garage from pieces of scrap metal wrapped in leather
have Mk1
yeah they always take ages to get the new maps in rotation
I mean, you still got 3 mines lol, 1 mine is usually like 2-3 arbites grenade worth if anything, especially in H40 lol
out yet?
Adeptus Mechanicus had to officially sanction Shivs are Mark 1 weapon 😄
thats true, i think the original goes up to 15? i hope there is some higher end stuff added. but i understand that not everyone plays at the highest lvl and you gotta cater to everyone. thank fuck im not a hd2 dev
was
they deliberatlely chose to shaft high level players
There's too many difficulties as is
mines are dead
aint no rest for the wicked, money dont grow on trees, I got bills to pay, mouths to feed and aint nothing in this world for freeeee 🗣️ 🔥
to make the game exclusively for that everyone
everyone but not if you want a challenge
casual gamers forbid it because they deserve to play on the highest difficulty and win
It’s a slap on the wrist and people will still be playing them most of the time
im not too deep into all of that. i just played to get level higher. dumb brain number go up haha. all i can say is that its not hard enough. i play 10 only btw, so i know
Like do we really need more than like five or six different difficulties when most of the 10 we have right now have such small differences between each one?
Helldivers 2 is a game not allowed to be difficult because people would feel bad for not been able to complete the maximum difficulty
nah bruh, 1 mine is already enough to save the game lol, the problem is ppl deploy those mines like nothing lmao.
They pander to the "I want to chill on the highest difficulty crowd" and then wonder why the "only buffs no nerfs" crowd settles in
AH's fault for not nipping this in the bud ages ago
I dont see how 90s cd is gonna kill it
Now they've let the community fester with this mentality
Not really, it's extra 30 seconds to wait, that's it. They were borderline op, on h40 you can lock down a giant wave, and by the time next comes, you lock it down again
sounds awfully similar to the hardrive vs ssd player issue 
Worst is, that the pve nerfs bad crowd is spreading like wildfire
there are still a big chunk of ppl still cant clear diff 6-7 so honestly I sometimes feel the issue is kinda overblown. THEN AGAIN, stuff like Napalm Barrage really just screws the "teamplay" aspect of the game lol
Idk when you first played but before like october last year, anywhere past 7 or 8 was miles harder than what the game is now
i'm saying as someone with 2.8k hours in HD2 xD
I don't really think they were borderline OP because the stagger they gave was tremendously unhelpful and got hard countered by all the usual difficult modifiers
Because they don't understand half the game mechanics. If you understand how things like armor penetration works and what weapons are effective at which roles, the game is miles easier
can't kill purple enemies because it forces them to bunch up
can't focus fire enemies because they're all bunched up
The devs absolutely hate the idea of not obfuscating everything though
so it's just however long they last that you literally cannot work on clearing the crowd because an arbites doesn't know how to use their shock mine
i played on release. been there since the start. i got 773 hours
cheater
they don't trust u to handle the fent yet
While its not the class I wanted I am looking immensely forward to it as it has a lot of things I have been wanting
That makes sense; no rookies allowed to use dangerous chems
aren't they meant to be homebrewed?
still a lot better than 3-4 arbites grenades sometimes tho, even with Final Toll and stuff. YOu can at least lock down trash hordes and stuff. arbites grenades deal decent dmg but kinda do fall off a tad bit in H40 and stuff.
Same. I miss the old difficulty of the asset evac missions most, now they're the most boring thing in the game
arbites grenades give a more useful stagger than shock mines do :/
Oh god fatshark please tell me you buffed martyrdom
Crowd clear? Shock mines? 
Thats what melee is for
you can actually disperse the horde so you can pick out the problems
Are you guys having early access to iron out a few things or just as a reward?
defense mission? always hated them, always will. standing around for 20 mins is the most cuck shit ever.
to market the game

They did tho trust
its because we already had it on our account, and the update containing it is out
but on steam, its not available to buy yet
you do you, obviously. but defense missions if its not a constant influx of enemies is stupid
no offense :>
It was a constant influx of enemies back then is the thing
who up scumming they hive
given there's always at least like 1 inferno staff every H40, it ain't a big issue, but I do consider that as a point yes.
behead all psyker players
D10 bot asset evac was basically an endless stream of enemies pouring at you the entire time
Now it's boring as fuck
what time is Hive Scum release?
Even without purg psyker hordes should never be a problem; just an obstacle
Easy obstacle i might add
in 3.5 hours
ohhh i misunderstood, you're totally right. id still rather run around and do objectives than defend.
thanks ❤️
I agree, honestly you dont really need inferno staff most of the time lol. But so many ppl are allergic to actually meleeing.
grundle
heading to the mines to re-make all my loadouts fs managed to wipe out
Fair enough, I just miss how absolutely insane those missions used to get, but they absolutely gutted em
Pls no…
What hd2 did is like if they made heresy difficulty the max you could play in darktide and everything before that is slightly less tense flavors of easy
lol I got like 10 loadouts on every class that I BARELY ever use, building loadouts is kinda fun to me so I got no issues with that xD
i only solo queue but i think this is accurate. these days i only play because i got a new pc and it looks great, but in terms of pure game fulfillment, id rather play zomboid, factorio or darktide
solo q adds a level of complexity because you cant rely on the skillbase of others, imo
The attachment system was like the best update they ever did
o7
TODAY
my friends only play rivals, ewww
New map isn't even on the mission board
and it wont be until scum release, probably
are there like a bunch of people with early access or do i got to restart steam to buy the dlc
We got a new mission?
No mans land
Then why was there an update
Escort a tank across no mans land
Fr?
Fr fr
downloading new assets for the new stuff coming out in a few hours, i wonder why there was a new update indeed
I was literally wishing they'd add such a mission the other day
preload
What differentiates or makes the combat knife worth using over shivs on hive scum?
bleed blessings?
I got to see a ton of people die over and over doing the mission
Is it a leman russ tank?
crits? do shivs crit much?
Yes leman russ
Hell yea
53rd leman russ
And the commander is very eccentric
If you don't like the attack combos
it's the Draigo guy lol
New class, an entire leman russ tank
that Dukane talks about sometimes
It totally is
Hadron is too in the mission lol
i really really hope they do more no mans land missions. the skybox looks amazing
Not to be mixed up with Kaldor draigo
Is the new mission an extension to the battle for tertium storyline?
I have also seen the sister lead the mission
newest story point
The campaign kinda just ends outta nowhere rn
speedrun time
The best speed runs are when only you know you are doing it (dont do this)
do you have a fave ranged weapon so far? i know you've been answering so much in here since the channel opened so im sorry to be one more guy
Sorry freebird is playing
depends on the build most definitely
but its a tossup between the autos and stubs
Knife zealots and desperado scum running off into the sunset together
cole's not a needle enjoyer 
i only use the needlepistol on my hsword build
and thats more a backup and supplimentary boss damage if its needed
Psyker is still faster than both
My speedopmeter mod never lies and hitting those 9.08 numbers

how have
after this rolling steel can someone taxi me and 2 others into a midrange difficulty private game rolling steel xd
Psyker might be faster in terms of speed runs but i think in terms of running ahead and dying zealot and scum are faster which is what im joking about
At work atm sorry boss
i love when i'm done putting all my 30 points and then i leave the UI and come back to the talents tab and it didn't save
ICONIC
I love when this game hates on people like that
old problem
the game isn't letting me put any talents in
i think it's a message, no talents run inc
it is restraining you from gaining full strength
fs trying to nerf me because i'm too pwoerful
do the people who were testers have access to HS already? or am I being baited
Maybe its smth like region based releases or smth
Class release yet?
Yesn't
I want to play Hivescum so i cant get on the train hate too
Damn
Maybe? On the normal servers you mean?
Fuckshark's marketing team hates us
In fact pretty much all marketing teams hate their consumers
if he tells me how people have access already ill taxi him
they already own the dlc so they have acess yes
🤝
nvm one of the devs joined xd
My installation is taking forever wreeeeee
trees resetting makes it real hard to enjoy the next few hours before the drop
cruel
Thats for the best, idk how to make a private game you would have had to teach me like im a senior citizen
BreakingTheLex
say hi to who made a lot of these melees cool
Hi who made alot of these melees cool
Hi who made alot of these melees cool
Is bro having a stroke
And they broke the mods for the millionth time
So it's a few days before we have proper fun
Wait is the new class out right now
A little Simon says humor there, im a lil quirky murders 10 people
Not for peasants
Train gone
depends what mods
Some men drown while others die of thirst
no longer my favorite dev
you owe him for the FGS and most melee weapons
he called me a poopface
numeric UI is the only one that seems broken for me atm
Did he make the shitass power sword
I don't know what you mean by that because I just checked steam the deluxe edition and it says it will be available in 2 hours
We are peasants. We don't have early access
hive scum out?
they be playtesters
PoopyThreadFace gonna be my scum
Ooo I see now I think it's little weird because creators have videos out and for me that is play testers but there is nothing we can do expect wait for 7 hours
This is nice to know ahead of time but why are there going to be issues on release
Where's this from?
because they werent fixed before the launch deadline
playtester and dev titles
Known issues in the dev blog on steam
epic
anyone know when the class comes out?
wanker
did you see their steam name
in 2 to 3 hours
no
It's saying much later for me on the main menu?
It hates you specifically
this is what i got on steam
What, you'd rather they delay the release to fix those issues?
At least life is consistent 
I'm on XBOX so maybe the console release is later?
Like the fuckin regular pickup ones?
the havoc modifier
I always forget what concentration and celerity stims do ngl
Enemy stim not ours
ability cooldown and attack speed
In 7 hours sadly for us
I believe that is for when it's available to buy because a friend today me in the character selection scenes says 7 hours
I thought it was dropping earlier than that
might just be off in game
I've been following the countdown on the main menu for some days and it had consistently said 19:00 me-time.
(UTC)
Can’t wait to use the bonesaw and rampage to do a dreg rager cosplay
for me it is 11 am UTC-3 🤔
Planned Release Date: 2 Dec, 2025
This content plans to unlock in approximately 2 hours```
In 2 hrs and 50 mins
it's the same hour for everyone dude
Reminder, gotta add 1 extra hr to the steam counter
Literally my build 
Drugged up melee build with chem toxin spam?
also glad they added a new character exp bonus
So true
Thats awesome
tho they still coudln't think of the fact that
you know
you are still locked to baby difficulties
It doesnt take too long at least
But yesh a littlr lame we gotta fight back to aurics
Then im more mixed up
50 missions to unlock auric
I havent played in a while

I’m all in
Tbf i cant complete some diffs on some characters. My zealot and arby ive done aurics on iirc but I suck at psyker.
Yes aquila in thr new event
HOW LOOOOOOOOOOOONG
I wonder if attack speed speeds up the heavy attack animation for the saw?
what is this from?
Clearing a blessed shrine spawns a boss i think, and you try to beat the level and clear as many shrines as you can
Event starting on Thursday.
the update notes
Maybe this will be normal, every year they will do one aquilas event
One per year is basically nothing.
Thats true
Each event should have a small amount.
Can't wait to buy nothing with 500 aquilas
even when they give handouts its specifically desgined to get us to spend money
