Change Operative Before Joining Mission

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Gameplay Feedback

I want to want to be able to select which career I play when joining a mission based on what careers are already being played. VT2’s lobby browser would be the simplest solution, which is likely already in the works, I’d just like to bring it to the forefront as I’m quite tired of the current implementation. Give me a list of games in progress, what careers are being played, what weapons are being used, and then crucially, the option to change my operative and loadout before I join.

I’m only playing Damnation at this point, and finding full groups with a good variety of equipment is quite difficult. You very rarely get a full squad in the 60 seconds before the match starts, during which you may only change your equipment, not your operative. Once you’re playing its total luck-of-the-draw whether new teammates will have complementary loadouts. I find rounds with one of each operative by far the most fun, give us the information and flexibility to reliably make those diverse squads.

The Game is not even able to handle an Operative switch while logged in to one of them inside the
‘‘Menu’’ Level aka the ship. And now you want it to handle an Operative switch while at the short timed
team up screen. There is not even enough time to switch gear because of the lack of pre saved gear compisitions.

I totaly understand you wish for being able to change the char to better suit the rest of the team. But it is unlikely, that the engine could handle such a class change without a full loading secment.

and: I would also like to see the others’ equipment to make literal last minute adjustments.

Id like the 60 second timer to start once someone actually readies. At least for diff4 and 5.

Currently people have to guess at a players skill by their border and melee weapon and leave at 3 seconds when you are forced into a game like the trolls they are. good times.
