I actually can't disclose my sources.

Hedge wants to know your location

The idea with these is they don't impact gameplay, but add a flavour variable to the maps you run. dusk or rain shouldn't obscure your vision but just set a new tone for a map, or part of.

It does, I think they dropped it from VT2 to just shave down the title's length as it was a bit silly.

This is it yep, the name was getting preeetty long. We're still sadly* in the End Times.

^{*as in 'this ends badly' rather than a critique of AoS. I remain staunchly impartial on that. You'll never know.}

Hey Hedge! Off topic for this thread, but do you have any idea if we'll see a double XP weekend again anytime soon? I've gotten some new friends into the game thanks to the COVID situation and that would really help players like them who are picking up the game for the first time during the lockdown.

I'll speak with the powers, maybe we can schedule one for Season 3 :)

Because the whole reason they introduced payed cosmetics was so they could create content like this for free right? Also locking content like this behind money in any game is bad, but in a game that is as stagnant and stale as vermintide is honestly just a poor move.

What we're trying to avoid is shipping paid content that splits players (see WOM). Choosing to use the Grail Knight doesn't restrict you from any lobbies or others from your lobby (unless they happen to be playing the Knight as well, as it works with Vanilla careers as well). These kinds of DLC will hopefully allow us to continue providing free content that would otherwise split the player base if paid for.

This is vermintide 1 right? looks like (from a very high level) the game is trying to launch on a very incompatible GPU (onboard most likely)

edit: Yep, your machine doesn't look like it has the guts to run Vermintide I'm afraid. The Intel(R) HD Graphics only supports DX10, whilst DX11 is a requirement. The CPU would also struggle with the game - the Intel(R) Pentium(R) CPU B960 @ 2.20GHz just doesn't have the legs, sadly.

Minimum Requirements:

• OS: Windows 7 64-bit, Windows 8/8.1 64-bit, Windows 10 64-bit*
• Processor: Intel Core2 Quad Q9500 @ 2.83GHz or AMD Phenom II X4 940
• Memory: 6 GB RAM
• Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 or AMD Radeon HD 5770 /w 1GB VRAM
• DirectX: Version 11
• Network: Broadband Internet connection
• Storage: 30 GB available space
• Additional Notes: *WARNING: 32-bit OS is NOT officially supported at this time

That's too bad. I will then try to contact the devs, if they could provide me the file. Thank you for your answer :)

Best I can doooo

Yeah, for some reason (programmer probably forgot) rapier's push attack doesn't have a programmed window where you can swap weapons, like pretty much every other attack does.

So either you have to wait 1.3 seconds (got the numbers from the game's code) for the whole action to finish, or you have to interrupt the action with something else, like a block or an attack (can be done after 0.35 seconds) or a pistol shot (0.4 seconds).

Alternately, we can hope that they add something like this to light_attack_bopp's allowed_chain_actions in the rapier's code, which would let you quickswap properly after the attack:

{
    sub_action = "default",
    start_time = 0.4,
    action = "action_wield",
    input = "action_wield"
}

(Psst, /u/fatshark_hedge, your beard is luscious and your jawline chiseled. Could you pass this on to someone in programming, please?)

It is done

On ps4. Characters are still rolled back. Only like 1 was fixed

Could you PM me your PSN ID?

What cheeses my opinions is why can't Fat Shark just ban them or something? Must be very easy to identify.

I understand that sentiment, honestly, and it has been echoed internally. However, standing AFK in the keep isn't strictly against any terms, rules or EULA. That's on us, I suppose, for not forseeing folks would do that when we wrote it. At the same time, the game should have protections and systems in place so players who encounter these poeple can just block them and move on with their lives / evening's entertainment. That is squarely on us, and we're working to address it.

This might also be of note as well, Im pretty sure cosmetics added post WoM aren't available from commendation chests. Only ones that were in the game prior. So, Krubers hatless cosmetic, for example, is only available via the emporium. I could be wrong, but I believe that is the case.

that is the case.

Congratulations! These entries are amazing, I'm still reading my way through them all!

You're all incredibly talented writers. Maddest props for the prose.

So Fatshark can’t police their own game in this instance due to an oversight in the EULA? Is it a difference between US and EU law? Pretty much every EULA I’ve ever read from US game developers include a clause that allows them to terminate accounts for pretty much any reason they want.

It's kind of a cheap scummy clause. Sure, it would have helped here, and a lesson for the future perhaps, but ultimately banning people for going AFK is a cheapshot. I believe these people to be showing us we should be doing better with the QOL features (and in fairness it is working).

spatnakc

Yeah, but this happened a year ago and you said the same thing then. So is anything ever actually getting implemented? Plus I've watched a video of one of these guys life leech sucking random players in the keep before the video got taken down, it's not just AFK hosts.

And this part

I believe these people to be showing us we should be doing better with the QOL features (and in fairness it is working)

Players have been asking for QOL features forever, but this is what's getting you guys to take it more seriously? And you won't punish it?

edit: edit: wasn't a ban but a suspension, sorry for being extremely petty

Hey spatnakc. We spoke via helpdesk, hopefully the situation is clearer now. We're not banning anyone, but we're timing out folks we can verify to be holding up the game for other players who just wanna kill rats.
