Chaos Waste Release date announced!

No new enemies… ? Thats what should have been added long time ago.

1 map? :smiley: Should be 3-6?

All this time for a map and some weapons, joke.

Weapons is nice, but its to little and way to late.

Where does it say it’ll be only one map ? Cause I doubt that’s the case given the time that has been put into the DLC.

I saw it somewhere, maybe its more, and it should be.

For any other developer I would assume it, with Fat shark it would not surprise me if it was 1 map, a reskinned old map :slight_smile: For 75$.

I think this is the point where you acknowledge that you got mad after falling for unverified claims or misreading a post that was actually talking about WoM or something

Where does all this over-the-top despise come from ? You can’t be taken seriously if you only speak in hyperboles, mate.
You wanna talk about it ? Show us on the doll where fatshark touched you.

More seriously, I’d probably bet it’s going to be around 20€ for a 6-maps mini-campaign, coming out in small batches, perhaps the first steps of the journey don’t add enemies and the later ones do (even though that last bit is quite optimistic based on fatshark’s account).

We got a new purple glowy skin…
27 months after SoB…
That we had to pay for,
Yeah i don’t have much hope.

:face_with_raised_eyebrow:
Which one and when ?

You know, I “think” I would be slightly more okay with all the complaining by people if they actually had the integrity to come back later and say: “Okay, look. I was wrong.”

But you never hear from them again. Or they are still arguing on old feuds: “But what about Dedicated Servers!!!11!1!1!!!”

I think this is about the Outcast Engineer’s purple illusions? Which Grail Knight and WoM dlc weapons still don’t get. :sob:

Anyhow, I’m actually disappointed that Indypride went ahead and published that video. Looking through the reddit discussion, he got plenty of very down to earth and decent clarifications from Hedge, but he seems to have ignored them for the sake of click-baited views.

It’s his right to remain disappointed about a complete lack of new enemies, no?

I’m sure FS will have some kind of story reason to explain this because there was never a scenario where we wouldn’t be fighting skaven in one form or another regardless of which location we’re visiting (they make up most of the specials and the game can’t work without them).
But a lot of people expected some new enemies given the vast possibilities to choose from.

Chaos Wastes can obviously still be great fun without new enemies, but I hope we don’t end up in a situation where people are too mad about lack of enemies that the expansion fails and thus makes not getting new enemies in the future a self-fulfilling prophecy.

It’s his right to do whatever he wants as long as he isn’t breaking the law. However, I think that a content creator with integrity would have included Hedge’s comments in some form or another within that video. The truth of the matter is that we simply don’t know much at all about what will be provided and there’s no benefit to speculating, especially when your opinion can influence a significant amount of the player base. Indy in particular has a history of supporting game developers, unless I am mistaken he supported Warriors of Chaos being a preorder DLC for Total War: Warhammer back in the day, so it’s weird to see him with a pitchfork in these circumstances.

Also, if this is the amount of info that FS feel comfortable with revealing so far, I think the only decent thing to do is respect their decision and wait. It sucks for me as well, I’m dying to know what this dlc is about and I’m really hoping that it will be great, but I don’t see the point in bashing them or the game until further information is revealed.

Well, no daemons… that’s unfortunate, but if I remember correctly Fatshark said in the 4 year vermintide anniversary livestream that there will be map or chunks of map themed on each dark gods. Maybe we will get new skin themed on each gods (except Nurlge for obvious reasons :stuck_out_tongue: ) for the already existing chaos enemies?

Still looking forward for this dlc/extension.

I was hoping no new Enemy faction (Skaven, Rotblood and Beastmen) but still new enemies (Special, Monster Lord, etc), kinda hoping we do get some more in the future

To much warp dust or time traveller ?

Outcast engineer cosmetic dlc has a purple glowing skin for the Coghammer and Master Work Pistol

I totally agree. I like purple illusions and for the collection I want to have them for all weapons.

Well, no daemons … that’s unfortunate

Indeed. It would be nice to сreate some enemy daemon character, which we will meet later in Darktide. This would give a pleasant connection between games.

Here is an article about DLC content.
Some speculation on my side:

Helmgart/Ubersreik arс is ended with Rasknitt’s death. So there is nothing to do here apart from some side occasions like Bogenhafen, Maisberg, or Drachenfels.
We should all pay close attention to the teaser contents. Quest table is not inside Taal’s Horn Keep. That makes me think that’s this gonna be a whole new story expansion. That’s why new enemies might appear further with new maps within expansion.

Fatshark posted on Twitter/reddit that there wont be new enemies, at least not anytime soon.

Probably just a lot of fighting with the rotbloods mainly.

Yeah, I’m aware of that. I’m talking about future possibilities. I’m OK with the absence of new factions. At this point, I just need a new setting to fight existing enemies because after a certain amount of time in the game old maps are starting to get boring.
After all hope for the worst and you will never be disappointed - as some proverb recommends.

But does the new Enemy mean only new faction or also new enemies of already present faction, like Nurgloth is part of the Rotblood but was a new enemy

Can we still hope for more Skaven ?
