Love how the āleakā claims itās from the Ukrainian localization filesā¦ while Darktide doesnāt have Ukrainian language support in the first place.
Iām kinda surprised it doesnāt seem that an Omnisian Axe is gonna be available for it. I know it usually is used by higher-ranking characters, but this is such an iconic weapon of the AdMech.
I mean, even if that leak was a false, itās still kinda obvious that AdMech related class is going to get added this update. If not for the abundance of other leaks, itās only logical to assume that FatShark saw the clear feedback a lot of players gave after the Hie Scum release ā people want an AdMech class.
Youāre right to be cautious and that is a good observation. However, there is a community mod to create a Ukrainian localisation. They extract snapshots of the text files from the game and translate them to Ukrainian.
The formatting of the extract in the screenshot matches decompiled Darktide localisation files perfectly. I can tell you that this text is not in the English v1.11.6 files but I no longer have access to the 1.11.5 files to see if they slipped in and were later redacted. At a guess, the modders are translating the Russian version and we know FS staff are bad at checking/censoring languages they donāt understand so I suppose I could search through those files for Russian keywords but I am quite lazy.
So thereās still some chance itās a fake (thereās no such thing as a Skitarius Alpha Primus in the wikis afaik), but also some factors in its favour.
I have also found deluxe cosmetics pack descriptions in the English files but this is not the place to discuss that.
This thread is not going to last long.. Someone else sharing the screenshot got their post removed.
As Morrow would say āItās against regsā
Also, I think Mr E should not have posted that video. A lot of the community sees his videos and the reddit post where I saw it doesnāt really show where exactly they got it from. Signaling something that could be false (even though itās blatant that itāll be Skitarii) flood rumors everywhere. The whole community is spiraling on information that isnāt really public and verifiable
*The most blessed pass a point called the Crux Mechanicus, their body more machine than flesh. Those that reach this stage of mechamorphosis are known as Skitarii Alphas. Some go on to attain the rank of Alpha Primus ā overseers who can operate independently for years if necessary, as solid and reliable as the titanium that replaces their flesh.*Codex: Skitarii ļ¼7th edition.ļ¼
Iāll only get excited when I see actual proof.
Fatshark will punish any hope, crushing it underfoot.
And if Admech becomes a reality, theyāll find a way to disappoint still somehow.
I also have that fear, but Iāll still buy this DLC and at least have a couple of weeks as an overpowered and amazing Skitariiā¦ before the first balance pass.
Well, a class should be bought for what playstyle it offers you, not for the effectiveness of said gameplay
I was way more excited to get Hive Scum than Arbites, since I like playing nimble glass cannons, my favs classes in VT2 are Witch Hunter Captain, Ranger Veteran, Waystalker, Battle Wizard and so and so, thus I was happy upon seeing what Hive Scum was
Even I knew the amount of ranged potential Scum had was degenerate and was gonna get nerfed (it still is but nerfing it further would absolutely kill it for 99% of the playerbase), I still bought him because their ranged oriented playstyle was still gonna be awesome, and after the nerf it still is (tho sadly I rarely see people playing with it in the higher levels, such a shame, it has so much potential)
If this admech class offers something youād love to pour your time into doing, then Iād say get it, even if it gets nerfed, as long as the fantasy of what it offers is what you have fun with, get it
Canāt wait! Cannot wait for no new mainboard missions again! Yay! Letās all play the same maps for the 20 millionth time. Iām sure a slightly different character will make it feel totally different to the other 19.99 million times weāve played those missions. Woop!
I mean, admech would be cool and all but Iād happily wait until after a bunch of maps and new biome was released.
