I get what you’re saying - but we know there are 65 weapons INCLUDING variants so none of it matters

We do not have 70+ weapons, but many. Still a lot of them as “reskins”.

I think that they have to probably delayed those as they had quite a bit of balancing to do with existing the weapons during the POB. I accept that excuse (for now at least, blame it on copium maybe) for all of the weapons that have been datamined a month ago.
BUT
For the Ogryn’s weapon that was showcased in a Trailer (the electric maul, or whatever the name is), I find that less acceptable. Not an Ogryn’s player myself, but that was showcased…

As I said earlier, I get you. But you’ve been had by marketing.
Did you count all the grenades? Did you count the special ability “grenade” of the Psyker? Did you count all sub-variants of them all?
I’m saying this not to be cynic, because Marketing did exactly that.
If there is one Autogun with the Flashlight and full automatic firing and another Autogun with the bayonet and the same full automatic firing, you already have 2 guns according to the marketeers.

You guys need to stop coping. Throwing away numbers entirely, the ogryn shock maul was shown IN THE TRAILERS and is not in the game. All these semantics about “oh so and so counts weapons differently” is pointless when there are weapons shown in trailers not in the game. Thats why people are upset.
That combined with all the other issues new to this patch and the issues not addressed from the beta. People should be upset. i know i am.

It’s not coping, it’s literally how Marketing works and I’m explaining it in full details so you won’t get disappointed the next time this happens by yet another team.
This stuff is everywhere.
You buy a new washing machine, they will talk to you about how silent it supposedly is and there will be fineprint saying “Only if you installed it right, lol”.
You go the clothing store for your Black Friday discounts and you will then figure out this and that discount is not applicable with one another.
You buy a new car and they will give you technical numbers of how fast it should go based on the horsepower the motor has, but it won’t be actually that fast because luggage weight wasn’t factored in.
I could write a whole book about this. The point is that the Marketing Team will tell you stuff that is borderline lies, but not full lies because they can be sued for that.

The different “marks” are counted in the 65 currently available weapons. Guys, you don’t need to be apologists to FS on this one. With all current weapons and their variants, there are 65 weapons. They promised 70+ and we don’t have them. People are correct in being upset over not having things we were promised. In the current state of the game, the Ogryn has almost no weapon variety due to not receiving some of the weapons we expected to come.

If were talking about the counts sure, but the ogryn shock maul is literally IN THE TRAILERS. Not a cinematic but actual gameplay. Fs has no defense here.

A while ago I went through and counted. Depending on what exactly you define as “unique” - that is, how different a weapon has to be from a very similar weapon to be considered a distinct thing rather than merely a reskin with slightly different stats - it has 78-79.
I just counted the weapon categories for each hero, discrepancy was probably from counting 1h sword, 1h mace and mace and shield twice for the overlaps between heroes.
Regardless of whether it’s 78 or 81, its still more than 65.

I think that Fatshark probably felt pressured to have their weapon variety be similar to their previous game, completely forgetting that the Vermintide games as a whole have been in the works for seven years.
Fatshark probably didn’t realise that nobody would have cared whatsoever about Darktide having a smaller arsenal than VT2 if they were just honest about it.

Don’t care about the claims of how many weapons will specifically be in. Do very much care that weapons literally used in the promotional videos of the game are not in the game, with no word about them existing or coming. Wheres my shock maul fatshark?

Hope we get a dev response soon. Not just about this, but about the shop and crafting too. Feels not like a launch to me
Was looking forward to trying the new weapons, sucks that they’re nowhere to be found.

To the bootlickers coming in here to lie about the number of weapons in game - we’re looking for a dev response to this, not people unable to count straight lying.
