Yeah telescopic eyes is sick

dense salmon
#

Look at the left handed marine on the right side

median marsh
#

[HRRRAAAAARGHHHHH]

regal rain
#

Prolly ambidex

regal rain
#

Mf from the hood

dusk patrol
#

He’s an Iron Hand so yeah

#

He probably does have bionic eyes

vale fjord
#

I wonder, do the adeptus sorroritas get the same modification treatment as space marines?

storm jungle
#

yes

dusk patrol
#

Bionics yes or they can

#

Biologically no

green loom
#

They have those lil studs on their skin

#

To connect with power armour

dusk patrol
green loom
#

But they don't get the invasive gene magic bs marines go through

dusk patrol
regal rain
#

It took you cropping for me to realize hes shooting down while looking up

#

Space marine skills are insane

green loom
#

Wolf doesn't have time to aim

dusk patrol
green loom
#

Ayo bullet time cybergear

dusk patrol
#

The Iron Hands armor can literally fight for them if they get incapacitated or just need to think of something else

green loom
#

Need more keys of hel content

regal rain
#

So the iron hands just go AFK

dusk patrol
#

They can if they want lol

vale fjord
# dusk patrol This

Sure but what about the laser pointer part (unless he looks directly at the enemy's eyes then its very effective in blindness)

green loom
#

They don't even need to be alive

regal rain
#

The iron hands literally AFK farm

dusk patrol
dusk patrol
#

Bonus art from the same cover

green loom
#

How does he reload the bolters

dusk patrol
#

Generally they can all in supply servitors with extra whatever

#

It has a lot of ammo in reserve and in his suit or whatever

regal rain
dusk patrol
#

If you mean the Matrix guy

vale fjord
dusk patrol
#

People cart it out

vale fjord
#

Much better

#

WAAAAGH

green loom
#

When are we getting cosmetics for these guys

dusk patrol
#

Not until we get art

#

GW isn’t super keen on letting studios make the first visual appearance of dudes

#

And we probably won’t get art ever but who knows

vale fjord
#

Iirc most of the cosmetics we see from the store is accepted by GS yes?

dusk patrol
#

All of them have to be

#

That’s probably why there’s the “wink wink this isn’t canon” text for the Krieg Ogryn

regal rain
#

GW is very strict

#

Except when it comes to Lore guidelines for some reason at times

green loom
#

Wazzat mean

vale fjord
#

Did it actually said that

#

I forgot

dusk patrol
#

It basically said like “Krieg may not use Ogryns but don’t tell this one that”

shell barn
#

I feel like making an awkward confession here

When I first started 40k lore. I didn’t know much about the Tau. And honestly, after looking at a bunch of figures of them I had a much different idea of what they were

#

After never seeing one without a helmet. In the beginning I thought they were all robots. And their gimmick was that the “greater good” was some concrete definition they had

#

In hindsight. Personally I think that’s cooler

storm jungle
#

Lmao

#

honestly thats a pretty understandable mistake to make

#

especially when half their army is automated/drones

#

A bit like the space dwarves.

shell barn
#

I saw a picture of fire warriors and didn’t understand they were wearing a helmet

dusk patrol
#

Yeah when they’re primarily in mechs and armor which could be confused with being a robot

storm jungle
shell barn
#

But man. I’m so mad because that seems like it could have been a cool idea

storm jungle
#

Necrons do the robot thing better

green loom
#

It's a better takeaway than

shell barn
#

Fair

green loom
#

"Haha they're communists, die commie filth!"

shell barn
#

So my takeaway was “Necrons. But they’re trying to be good”

#

TLDR

storm jungle
#

Uh no its just a normal expansionist alien race

#

just not literal space nazi-romans like the Imperium

shell barn
#

I know now but I still think it’s cooler than blue aliens.

green loom
#

Instead it's more boring NATO stuff

storm jungle
#

lots of people like tau

#

so

green loom
#

Like me 3_

storm jungle
shell barn
#

I was under the impression no one likes Tau?

storm jungle
#

If no one liked tau they would be squatted as a faction

#

lol

green loom
#

If you look at this fandom you'll get the impression that people only like marines and guard lol

storm jungle
#

^

#

Imperium fanboys make up the majority of the surface fandom and they hate anyone that isnt them

green loom
#

They have the most prevalent memes and the loudest morons

shell barn
#

At least one person’s gotta like every faction tbf

storm jungle
#

Yeah like me.

#

Its also very important to seperate the fans / faction

soft thunder
dusk patrol
tulip brook
#

they have cool models, farsight and shadowsun are pretty good characters. what's there to hate

dusk patrol
#

Like what do you think GW makes models for factions no one cares about?

#

GW likes money, they’ll take risks but if a faction has stuck around

#

It means it sells and is popular to someone

crisp heath
#

I just got filtered for the most pg-13 description of drukhari I could think of

#

1984

thick cedar
#

Do all psykers experience some form of hearing voices or does it vary

dense salmon
molten swan
#

Depends how their powers manifest

#

And also likely what discipline they are, a telepath will probably hear voices no matter what

regal rain
#

Emotional state too, mental state altogether

#

Lot of factors

tulip brook
#

their whole thing is being sensitive to warp and warp being the way it is it's safe to assume someone called "psyker" can hear something. how much they can filter out unwanted stuff depends on their training, power, where they are, how they feel etc.

regal rain
#

Yeah. Its kinda scary too cause you dk the exact limit of your power and what’s not yours/too much

#

In lore evidently

#

You could just accidentally borrow too much and go insane or become possessed, or explode or so on

molten swan
#

Unrelated side note but I love Black Templar banners

#

Like this one for the cleansing of Hive Thetus, fighting genestealer cultists

#

Declates Crusade

#

The Purging of Centrati's Eye 👁️

desert dust
#

I always pictured psyker powers kinda like a electrical resister or capacitor or like a water pressure valve.
The warp has unlimited power but psykers only got so much strength to channel it and if it goes out of control the body breaks and you rip a hole in reality

dense salmon
#

It's mostly a limitation of biology

#

Humans just haven't evolved to withstand the warp, those that do are exceptional

#

I would mention space marines but it's a bit unfair to compare them to mortal psykers

#

But there's a reason almost every extremely powerful psyker in the lore is either a space marine, a perpetual, or a primarch

dense salmon
#

anyone have some cool headcanon backstories for their characters?

warm notch
#

Agitator Zealot is my favorite personality because she chastises everyone for lacking faith when she herself is going through a massive crisis of faith

#

Hope she gets through it even tho she’s a massive bitch ❤️

vale fjord
#

Atleast they're nice enough to the bodyguard ogryn in one of the few dialouges

vale fjord
#

Bhuuut if you look up the meaning of the seer then the vision thing still fits

tulip sand
#

So the levels we have now are:

  • torrent: very sump bottom of the hive
  • hab dreyko?: hab in lower hive
  • metalfab: manufactory
  • throneside: suburbia in a hive?
  • outside/sandy place: outskirts of the hive near the surface?
  • carnival: red light district of the lower hive
#

Is there any part of the hive that has been highlighted in lore but we dont have yet

storm jungle
#

Deep Hive and Upper Hive

#

And more or less any other area FS can come up with

stray bluff
#

What so voice is not the only personality factor? Background affects it too?

storm jungle
#

Yeah but its minor

soft thunder
#

does background really effect much though?

storm jungle
#

Like i said super minor

dusk patrol
#

I think you’re looking for Sky High chat

storm jungle
#

💀

earnest snow
#

Dude I want FS to let us into the upper spires so we can steal the tea and crumpets those rich assholes are keeping locked up

compact kelp
#

Here's a lore question. I'm on comms-plex 154/2f and they refer to the building complexes on the way to the archivum as Enclavum. Are these government offices or Ecclesiarchy, or something else?

dense salmon
#

It's a term that only appears in darktide

#

But if we use the root word enclave we can get some ideas

#

An enclave is a cosmopolitan area of a country/city/etc

#

Where you have people of varying cultures and nationalities

compact kelp
#

I was thinking a hab for the upper class initially but it looks more like an office building

dense salmon
#

Possibly an area where different castes integrate and mingle

#

Or even a transitional area where people move from hab to hab

compact kelp
#

It does lead to the Archivum which has Administratum banners so that's why I'm thinking it's related

#

I spend way too much time in games examining environments

dense salmon
#

Archivum is a real word

#

Meaning a place where public records and texts are kept

#

Meaning it could be open to the public

compact kelp
#

Well i know the Archivum, I'm more curious about the Enclavum

dense salmon
#

So enclavum makes sense if anyone can enter the archivum; anyone from any walk of life can enter

#

I.E. an enclave-esque area

#

Whether it means a place where people from different habs integrate or people of different social classes can integrate is beyond me

#

Someone should do some deep dive videos exploring the maps and pointing out small details that could give us an impression

compact kelp
#

Exactly. Because I've been exploring like every inch of every map trying to think of what the practical purpose of each area

#

Pretty sure that's a diagnosis on my part but whatever

dense salmon
#

It's interesting stuff, I dont think you're weird for wanting to know

compact kelp
#

I'm way into environmental story telling and this game does such an excellent job at it

dense salmon
#

I agree wholeheartedly

#

Seeing the overturned luggage in the uh

#

Assassinate mission with the trains?

#

Paints a grim picture

compact kelp
#

Like dropping into a corridor and seeing a Moebian 21st armored ogryn dead with a dead hound in his lap

dense salmon
#

You can also see the sabotaged train from the game's intro in that mission

#

With an eerie green glow inside of it

compact kelp
#

Yeah and in the Carnival pub, you can see the traitors got taken by surprise because they were obviously drinking and chilling out in the brewery.

#

God I love this game lol

dense salmon
#

My bet is the term "enclavum" is unique to atoma and is an area where certain social integration among tertium residents is permissible

#

The archivum being a site of public records just past the enclavum lends to that idea

compact kelp
#

That's what I'm thinking

#

There's no sigils of any sort in the Enclavum's, which has Administratum banners everywhere

#

Probably a public byway of some sort

#

There's also some merchant carts Lying around

dense salmon
#

Just demonstrates good worldbuilding and environmental design imo

#

That we can use linguistics and context clues to deduce the purpose of a relatively unimportant and forgettable area

warm notch
#

And it doesn’t seem like there’s a good reason to segregate temples of worship is there?

compact kelp
#

I don't see much religious infrastructure but more governmental and public accessibility. However, being 40k, those things more than often overlap so it's hard to say

#

In the Enclavum's I see a lot of Scribe Podiums,

dense salmon
#

Religion is interlaced in nearly every facet of infrastructure

#

So it doesn't surprise me that the high-traffic thoroughfare doubles as a place of worship

#

It would also be a pretty good target for the traitor guard on top of the archivum

azure turtle
#

The preachers pulpit prolly in a largely crowded area

dense salmon
#

People in the real world tend to find high traffic areas to stand on soap boxes and preach

azure turtle
#

So you hear the good word of Big E whether you want to or not

dense salmon
#

40k is one of those settings where said soapbox could very feasibly be state sponsored

compact kelp
#

Zola mentions there was a preacher at the end of a street outside the train station, which is undoubtedly common

#

Wanna go the archive? you're hearing the word. Need to take a train? You're hearing the word. Wanna grab a bite at some slop cart? You better believe you're getting the big E of big E himself

dense salmon
#

Salted grox bun and recaf with a preacher is preferable to dinner with no youtube

compact kelp
#

Grox chowder = girl dinner

arctic talon
#

ice soup

dense salmon
#

Depending on where in tertium you live you'd be lucky to just get fucking water

#

Then there's the carnival with fucking tiny restaurants all over

#

Get us some grox steaks and amasec

compact kelp
#

Imagine that Tertium ale

#

Probably tastes like tile grout

thorn zenith
#

And you have the torrent where even water is shit

#

To the point they have a whole ass cartel controlling clean water

crisp heath
#

So.... this is perhaps my favorite fan made 40k thing ever. And I'm thinking of writing out my own response to the chaos portion from a guardsmen's perspective. Anyway, what are some important battles between chaos and the imperial guard. The three I know off the top are obviously Cadia, Armageddon, and Hydra Cordatus. Can be win or lose for the guard

crisp heath
# crisp heath https://youtu.be/GT_3TehNVpU?si=agHgbxQk44qm4rC-

Pregnant quiet follows the heretical recording, then a tired, weathered but resolute voice crackles over a vox channel

I remember, standing on the splintered fields of Cadia as we were slaughtered in mass. The bullets never stopped firing as we still stood tall. To a man, woman, and child, every one of us, we defended our home and honor even as our world broke apart and we were swallowed by hell. Aye, I remember, standing upon grand Hydra Cordatus, home of the Imperial Fists's gene seed. The horrors committed live on in memory to this day. Those same men, women, and children, who so bravely defended the heritage of their angels, butchered and enslaved like livestock and cattle. I remember Armageddon, Bloody Angron's war. Right bastard was he. Pushed him back and still nearly tore the imperium in two, he did. Damn Wolves and Inquisition running amok. That's settled now, thankfully… though them Wolves are rather squirrely with them Inquisitors’ plans.

Do you know why I say this, heretic? I say this, because while you sit there laughing, for ten thousand years we have battled your kind. With our weakness and frailty, we have beaten back your crusades every time! With our fragility and naivete, we have destroyed your advance each time it has come. All of your plans, laid to waste by NORMAL MEN. WITH NORMAL SOULS. Our weapons might not be the best. Our armor might not gleam under light. But our souls are PURE. I may return to my corpse emperor a corpse myself. But I will return to his light KNOWING I will be held in his embrace! What can your Khorne say to that? For all the power you have achieved, I call you weak. Weak for accepting their handouts. Weak for accepting their lies. Weak for giving up and giving in. But fear not, Traitorous Heretic.

#

For the Emperor's Mercy shall find you soon. Our legion marches to every world you hide in, we are ready for any battle. No amount of carnage shall dissuade us from our holy mission. For we are the Astra Militarum. We hold the Line! And even in death, do we serve!

Vox cuts

#

((What I've got so far))

#

Idk if it's as good as the original, but ehh. I like it so far. Still, if anyone has some extra lore, it could probably be fleshed out a bit more. Maybe. Idk

wispy marlin
#

yeah but not fancy enough for being the upper spires

#

more like upper middle class

#

tbh I would love to see where exactly on the hive the zones are

celest dome
#

Throneside is still Low to Mid Hive at best

dusk patrol
#

Throneside is definitely upper hive

#

But it’s not the highest

celest dome
#

Nah, it's Mid Hive

storm jungle
#

^

#

The announcers confirm it

queen laurel
#

if the mid hive is that fancy i wonder how fancy the upper ones are

tulip sand
#

Ok i am in game now so i can see the maps:

HL-17-36 Metafab (2x missions)
HL-19-24 Throneside (2x Missions)
Freight port HL-32-2 Hourglass (3x missions)
HL-70-04 Carnival (1x mission 1x planned)
Habzone HL-18-66 Torrent (2x missions)
Chasm station (3x Missions)

dire apex
#

Enclavum barross is the mission name pretty sure

tulip sand
#

Metalfab/torrent/chasm station have a lot of similarities

dire apex
#

Same for Mercantile

tulip sand
#

So all in all 6 unique locations so far, however 3 of them reuse a lot of assets

storm jungle
#

They don't honestly

tulip sand
#

Could see something like the nobles have a hunger games kind of set up

#

Make the poor people fight each other

storm jungle
#

the areas you pass through are like once or twice

tulip sand
#

That would be uniqhe

storm jungle
#

its mostly the opening sections and the middle-section of the map

tulip sand
#

I had poorly optimized settings previously so it was harder to spot the differences

#

Now that i have them i have to admit that there is big differences with lighting etc

storm jungle
#

yeah if you play on low optimization you'll miss a lot

cursive plinth
#

Quick lore question: is the Moebian VIth also Nurgle affiliated or something else?

queen laurel
#

They just look different because they don't exhibit the color but they 100% work with Nurgle

dusk patrol
#

Everything in the game is nurgle affiliated currently

normal light
#

They have Nurgle tatoos

dusk patrol
#

And iconography

cursive plinth
#

Cool, thanks!

normal light
#

yep

dusk patrol
#

Well, every enemy in the game is

wispy marlin
#

Even though most moebians aren't chanting nurgles name every two seconds like the cultist, they are a nurgle force. ( And well their captains are quite chanting nurgle a bit but most of the troops are talking more like a professional force )

storm jungle
wispy marlin
#

wait

queen laurel
wispy marlin
#

maulers talk?

queen laurel
storm jungle
#

yes...?

#

💀

wispy marlin
#

i only hear their steps

storm jungle
#

You're probably not focusing enough

queen laurel
#

They're like one of the loudest things in the game

storm jungle
#

^

#

they shout and yell attack lines constantly

queen laurel
#

They scream so much they would give a Khorne cultist a run for their money

wispy marlin
#

looks like a sound bug for me then

storm jungle
#

Enemies dont really get sound bugged

wispy marlin
#

or morrow screamed back at them

storm jungle
#

might just be you not hearing them during the chaos of fighting

wispy marlin
#

or this

queen laurel
wispy marlin
#

i do hear a lot of stuff, even with the muties screaming all over the place

storm jungle
#

yeah its prob that

wispy marlin
#

on higher difficulty game spawns maulers in like double squads

tulip brook
#

wow I literally haven't heard them say anything

wispy marlin
#

i do hear their swings but never talk

storm jungle
dusk patrol
#

Tbh with the music and everything else going on it’s pretty easy to miss their lines

#

But basically every enemy says something

queen laurel
dusk patrol
#

The specials obviously pierce through it too

#

Intentionally

wispy marlin
#

never heard them

storm jungle
#

💀

dusk patrol
#

You have you just weren’t listening for it

storm jungle
dusk patrol
#

It’s easy to miss with all the other stuff going on

storm jungle
#

the shooters even have lines for when you run out of ammo

tulip brook
#

I remember crush them line and a lot of grunts

celest dome
#

The Scab are Nurglite 100%, but they are so in a way that is "undivided" enough that they could be made such if they needed it

tulip brook
#

I'm verifying files now

storm jungle
#

its just that chaos doesnt have to be ugly mutated color coded dudes all the time

dusk patrol
#

Enemy Ogryns iirc will comment on it if you’re playing an Ogryn

storm jungle
#

This game's approach to chaos with Abnett behind it is suppose to be more "grounded" and realistic in-universe.

dusk patrol
#

Also chaos isn’t one thing, there’s a ton of variety and it doesn’t have to fit the narrow view we see that GW has to do because models and art can only show so many versions of something

storm jungle
#

^

wispy marlin
#

yeah, its not instant tentacles when joining chaos

storm jungle
#

Yeah

#

Like most chaos people look mutated because it makes them more identifiable on tabletop

#

or well artwork

dusk patrol
#

We have more for a huge variety of chaos factions just like we have lore for a variety for a lot of others

#

But obviously Gw can only make so many models and art pieces

#

To simplify stuff they tend to stick with a similar design but it doesn’t mean that’s the only one

storm jungle
#

Yeah and the 6th are very heavily Nurglea alligned.

celest dome
storm jungle
#

The troopers just look more "realistic" because a good chunk of their inspiration comes from the uhhh Blackstone Fortress guardsman.

#

who are a lot more generic/undivided with the grey-metal aesthetic

dusk patrol
#

They also use the goggles as a nurgle thing which is amusing

wispy marlin
#

also since wolfer tries to get terium on his side with his speeches having bombs of puss as your rank and file soldier would not be a good sell

storm jungle
#

Yep

#

also wow i just realised

#

Literally the same mask too

crisp heath
#

Also probably because the eyes are usually one of the first things to rot

#

Probably need replaced

wispy marlin
#

we'll probably see some heavily mutated scabs in the future but now they are quite "normal" looking for chaos worshippers

storm jungle
#

As long as you dont look them in the face

#

then they are no nosed and entirely rotting

green loom
storm jungle
#

💀

green loom
#

They used to have white masks like that

storm jungle
#

Yeeee

#

also the mauler design was a lot more different

near wasp
#

You get neat fly eyes when yours rot out

green loom
#

I wouldn't say too different, they just looked like the smaller axe guys in VT2 with a chest piece

#

Or more like Shotgunners

dusk patrol
#

I do think it’s funny that they just straight up reused the Maulers and some Bezerker animations from VT

storm jungle
#

I mean they didnt

near wasp
#

Oh i was joking, i didnt expect to be right

storm jungle
#

its just that you cant really swing an overhead axe in a lot of ways

#

Also an downwards attack is a lot more easy to dodge/notice as a player

dusk patrol
#

Some of the rager movements are dead on what the berserkers do

storm jungle
#

Yeah because its the same enemy type

#

otherwise no animation in this game is re-used

#

im autistic af id notice it 💀

dusk patrol
#

It’s not the exact same but the motions are the same, how it functions in gameplay is a bit different

storm jungle
#

Well yeah again, you cant exactly swing a akimbo-melee weapon in a lot of ways.

dusk patrol
#

Well

#

Not gonna agree there but I also think if it ain’t broke don’t fix it

storm jungle
#

What do you want em to do tho 💀

#

Its important to keep it familiar enough that the players know what they are going up against and choreograph it

dusk patrol
#

I’m not complaining

#

I don’t dislike the designs, Maulers are a really fun enemy type tbh, with a fairly interesting design of “don’t target the head”

dusk patrol
#

I don’t think Darktide lacks in enemy variety

#

Especially because I was worried coming off VT with three distinct factions it would feel like that.

storm jungle
#

The Scabs/Dregs deffo could use some though but its like 1-3 maybe

#

like they definitely need a commander/sergeant enemy that buffs em etc

dusk patrol
#

I wouldn’t hate a new group and some new monsters or elites but overall I’m down

#

Curious how the Karnak twins will play

storm jungle
#

Probably just traitor captains with new moves

#

but we'll see

dusk patrol
#

Reminds me of the one Captain from Payday 2

queen laurel
#

from the thing i can gather

#

would be a fun gimmick

dusk patrol
#

I’ve always thought there should be Captains as monsters you can run into

#

Little weaker but

#

Monsters are much easier to deal with in this game than VT

normal light
storm jungle
#

best part is they'll definitely be an enemy of an upcoming map, so same with him they'll probably flee when you damage em enough

#

compared to Winters who had no purpose in the game's plot but had plot armor and could never die

dusk patrol
#

Yeah the idea was neat but his implementation was

#

Eh

storm jungle
#

Legit

dusk patrol
#

More just “ugh now I have to go kill Winters smh”

storm jungle
#

With the twins it would explain why they are "time limited".

So ambushes for now until you finally kill em in a future map

dusk patrol
#

Yeah I imagine it’ll be the next map released

storm jungle
#

yeah also like

#

people are complaining saying "why time limited"

#

but just wait until they get released

#

and everyone hates them

#

lol

dusk patrol
#

Yeah that’s what I was thinking

storm jungle
#

As usual

#

your average gamer has no idea about game design

dusk patrol
#

I don’t dislike the idea of mini bosses though. I would like if there was a reward for killing them though.

storm jungle
#

same

dusk patrol
#

Making bosses drop mats is so no brainer

storm jungle
#

still surprised they havent done anything like that

queen laurel
warm notch
#

Just press the "make game" button

#

Are devs stupid?

celest dome
#

As long as DH don't

dusk patrol
#

Until I got me 2 handed maul for the Ogryn, they’re obviously wasting time smh

#

Also this

#

Where’s my damn brute shield obese fish?!

wet sandal
#

I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt and wait for it to actually release, but the idea of temporary content seems very weird to me

#

Surely it's better to make... permanent content

dusk patrol
#

Might become a thing which they activate later

#

Or as has been said

#

It’ll be a boss for the third map

green loom
#

Activate periodically

dusk patrol
#

I’m sure they’ll do more of these kind of events in the future if this works out

celest dome
dusk patrol
#

My concern is more if they’re fun to fight

#

If they aren’t jfc thank god it’s fomo lol

storm jungle
#

Its literally just two traitor captain enemies I genuinely doubt anyone is going to miss them lol

soft thunder
#

in regards to the variety thing, jsut remember tox gas plague ogryn and likely other tox-gas enemies with likely be coming at some point. Nurgle loves tox-gas

storm jungle
#

They are in the files yeah

#

they just got no models

celest dome
storm jungle
#

BUT they will deffo give em more shit to do than just the default captain animations.

#

Fatshark can be dumb but they aren't as dumb as their playerbase

celest dome
#

Hank said i wasn't an esteemed Dataminer, you don't need to call me dumb too

soft thunder
#

or at least a tox-gas plague ogryn variant. Brahms also mentions tox-gas and flames alot in some voice files. Maybe it's the new carnival map varient, who knows

dusk patrol
#

It’s obvious what’s gonna happen

forest orbit
#

People like this are why I got half the channels in this server muted lol

dusk patrol
#

we capture Wolfer next mission

#

Third mission

#

“Give us the Captain or we blow the Hive.”

celest dome
#

Still think that named character who have Vocator role won't be killed

storm jungle
#

"Sir, the Twins have targeted another Tower-"

queen laurel
forest orbit
#

LMAO

forest orbit
#

we literally got nothing yet lol

dusk patrol

what are these "concerns" lol

Chimpformation

Anyone that uses "strawman" in an argument is the asshole in this case 💀

I'm the strawman

forest orbit

S t r a w

dusk patrol
#

My concerns is you guys aren’t being very based and #40k-lore-chat pilled right now

storm jungle
#

Yeah either way lore chat is not exactly the place for an argument like this so

dusk patrol
storm jungle
#

Im timing you out if you keep this shit up.

#

@forest orbit Same with you Joe, do not drag it out.

The power of the chat moderator is awesome and frightening

winged jacinth
#

I always sleep through the interesting happenings

warm notch
#

ikr

storm jungle
tulip sand
#

thats wack

#

If the twins themselves are time limited I hope that whatever mechanic they spent working hours on remains but with a generic enemy

storm jungle
#

Probably because they are both gonna get killed by us at some point in a future map and the playerbase will definitely not like fighting them in random ambush scenarios.

#

wait when they get released and you end up getting nothing but complaints about how they play lol

tulip sand
#

i mean thats what patrols and such are

storm jungle
#

I mean no?

#

Patrols arent big healthbar enemies.

tulip sand
#

plebbit will always complain too

storm jungle
#

also true

warm notch
#

Honestly "ambush" to me sounds like they have a chance to take over a monstrosity spawn

storm jungle
#

Yeah thats the assumption.

warm notch
#

Which would be the easiest way to implement it

queen laurel
warm notch
#

unless they went all out and literally made it so that the director can spawn them at any moment in time

storm jungle
#

They will act like Captain Winters from PD2 probably, ambushing us and when you make their HP low enough they run away.

queen laurel
#

You guys remember when that thing came out and the complaints were?

tulip sand
#

So does that mean that the cutscene released with the first carnival level is also time limited?

storm jungle
#

Well yeah

#

thats a given

tulip sand
#

because its pretty good and I think the first part should stay as intro to the 6th

storm jungle
#

Yeah but it would also get annoying.

winged jacinth
#

The daemonhost release was so based

storm jungle
#

also this

#

i loved how every map was dark

tulip sand
#

it only plays when you make a new char right?

storm jungle
#

I THINK so

winged jacinth
#

There were 4 per mission every mission

storm jungle
#

also yeah and the players learned quick enough that its basically a Witch

tulip sand
#

So I would like to see it included in the cutscenes that are shown as you progress ur trust level

#

since we also need more story content imo that doesnt require people to have out of game knowledge

storm jungle
#

I mean

queen laurel
storm jungle
#

they need to have out of game knowledge

#

this is 40k

tulip sand
#

there are varying levels

#

like im sure that joe with his bountiful wife and three young children only knows the 6th are traitor guard or something

#

versus people more into the lore

storm jungle
#

Yeah but theres only so much you can do

winged jacinth
#

I think the dh is one of the things that could use some tutorializing eventually, like how the auspex minigame works

warm notch
#

Cutscene archival sounds like a great idea but it sounds difficult to implement because imagine the size of this game in a year or two lmao

storm jungle
#

its like Destiny, Titanfall, Apex Legends, Team Fortress 2 and so on, a lot of the plot happens outside the game with us playing through it

winged jacinth
#

Make em scan 2 things on the bastion

tulip sand
#

"returned" and sons/daughters etc

storm jungle
#

yeah but then it ties into a map

#

which by the time new players come onboard will be outdated

warm notch
tulip sand
#

yeah just need to remove the second part of it

storm jungle
#

Also like

tulip sand
#

the first part with the fight scene and dudes walkin is fine imo

winged jacinth
#

The lore of destiny is no longer available because you're not allowed to play most of the game lol

tulip sand
#

and im not saying everything should be vaulted but since the amount of direct story you get is still quite sparse i think it could be useful

storm jungle
#

its the same with Deep Rock Galactic.

The devs promised an intro cinematic introducing what the game is about and a better tutorial but its been out for like 4 years and they have delivered on none of these and the tutorial is about as useless as you can be when you actually start playing the game

#

also I recently returned to the game and holy fuck the scorpion-yanking glyphid is an awful enemy

tulip sand
#

well yea but unless we kill wolfer it will still be relevant

storm jungle
#

Beats me, we'll see

#

they are still collaborating with GW/40k writers on it for the narrative

#

live-service games like this stretch stuff like this out

tulip sand
#

I just think that its a waste for work hours to be used on something temporary when it could be edited and used to fit a hole in the game rn

storm jungle
#

thats just how cinematics are

#

no point to keep them in the game

warm notch
#

It took a long ass time for Warframe to even think about going back and making the new player experience better

storm jungle
#

^

warm notch
#

Even then its still really bad lol

storm jungle
#

its like how uh

#

the Traveller in destiny changes

queen laurel
storm jungle
#

now if you go to the hub area its not there anymore

warm notch
#

Thats only because they probably allotted the time really far in advance during the dev pipeline to accomodate

tulip sand
#

yes but destiny is def not lacking in story

storm jungle
#

When the game came out we basically had nothing once the Red War plotline wrapped up

#

it will be fine

green loom
#

Destiny started as and still is a live service game

tulip sand
#

i only played d1

warm notch
#

Live service games do need to do better to accomodate new players otherwise the new player experience requires you to look up a wiki constantly . . .

#

But yeah we'll survive

green loom
#

Darktide is made by devs who are new to this type of game(live service, not horde)
It'll take them time but I'm sure they'll get into the workflow before long

storm jungle
#

green loom
#

Also for GW to get comfortable with it

storm jungle
#

i returned to Destiny after years right

#

and I learned they removed the Red War prologue

is it true that the bodyguard ogryn personality doesn't have a bone 'ead implant despite being so smart already?

in ogryn terms

only brawler does

I think only 1 of em has the bonehead

viral yacht
#

oh the only 1 with the malfunctioning one

green loom
#

Yes

grave sparrow
#

we're pretty exceptional for ogryns

dusk patrol
#

He’s also the dumbest it seems

#

But yeah they really all should be bone heads

#

But that doesn’t make for as fun dialogue

green loom
#

Way I see it they don't really yoink you for them for being smart
They yoink you for them for being able to follow orders and being obedient

dusk patrol
#

It’s a mix

viral yacht
#

heck, if the bodyguard were to get an implant, he might become smarter than Nork Dedogg

storm jungle
#

Nah

dusk patrol
#

Heresy and gross for you to imply

#

The Bodyguard iirc mentions Nork too

storm jungle
#

Bodyguard is already smart, An implant would be a crutch more than something useful.

dusk patrol
#

He’s like their patron saint

viral yacht
#

he has a penchant for learning

storm jungle
#

The Bully is also very smart

#

just simple-minded

viral yacht
#

bully seems more combat smart

storm jungle
#

when you start in the Torrent he comments that the Water Cartel are making the locals suffer by keeping clean water from them

#

hes very observant and clever, just doesnt show it

viral yacht
storm jungle
#

Honestly would fit in

#

but basically yeah you dont need an implant to be smart

viral yacht
#

what does the implant even do really?

storm jungle
#

Ogryns are kept stupid by the Imperium, if they learned that they were basically slaves they'd revolt.

#

Its said to make you "smarter" but the dumbest ogryn in the game is the only one with it and even then hes very stupid lol

viral yacht
#

it is confirmed to be malfunctioning

#

some lines read "it gets very hot and i smell cooked meat"

green loom
#

It probably keeps you in line

storm jungle

queen laurel
#

yeah some of them even have built-in berserker modes

It doesnt matter too much because Ogryns can be smart without an impant.

For more than a hundred centuries the emperor has sat immobile on the golden throne,
His body dessicated and mind worn,
He is the Master of Mankind by the will of the Gods and the Master of a Million Worlds despite inexplicable odds,
He is a Carcass writhing invisibly with Power from the Dark Age of Tech,
Ripe and ready for a time to unleash it yet,
He is the Carrion Lord of the Imperium of Man, for whom a thousand souls die every day, for whom blood is drunk and flesh is ate.
Human blood and human flesh - That which the Imperium is made,
To be a man in such times is to be one amongst untold billions,
Surrounded on all sides by the worst of villains,
It is to live in the most bloody and cruel regime imaginable,
Where a quick death over slow rot is the option preferable,
It is a universe you could live in today - if you dare,
For this is a dark and terrible Era,
You will find little comfort or hope here,
Forget the promises you were made on Terra,
Of technology, science, and common humanity,
In the 41st millennium - there is no sanity,
Forget the promises of progress and understanding,
For there is only war and the sounds of flesh rending,
There is no peace amongst the stars,
Only an eternity of carnage and the laughter of thirsting gods,
But the universe is a big place, and whatever happens, you will not be missed,
So cherish your time, and prepare to enlist.

The value is really in the fact

You can get every single fucking imperial armor book

most of the Elysia and Krieg lore is also from Imperial Armor

idk I don't think the animations have the greatest value personally
