Commodore's Vestures duplicate items

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Gameplay Feedback

Since you already seem to insist on this god awful store model… can we at least not get duplicates?

For the past 2 rotations the Zealot and Veteran keep getting the same item. Like the current one both have the “Mark of the Firstborn” Trinket, both also have the Bolter skin and both share the Cadia’s Teeth.

Seriously? How about you use the spare slot for another weapon type? Since you seem to refuse to give us permanent access to weapon skins and the like (why? Seriously? You could have gotten money from me for a nice Club skin that doesn’t look like plummers supplies for my Ogryn).

I also don’t understand why you add new weapons into the store and then don’t give us premium skins to go along with it? Who the hell is doing the sales department over there?

Everyone and their cousin’s dog went and tried out the new Eviscerator… instead of a pointless Trinket being doubled on the Veteran and the Zealot… how about instead you could have added an Eviscerator skin into the rotation?

And instead of Bolter for both Veteran and Zealot, how about making it different Bolter skins? Or a Plasma Gun and a Bolter skin?

You are already disappointing us every week with a meager selection from which to pick. And you release new skins that make me go “oh, this new skin would have gone great with that mask you had in the store 5 weeks ago, to bad it didn’t fit with anything back then and so i didn’t buy it… and i won’t buy it now, because i don’t have that mask”.

But can we at least not get skins being doubles up on the same week?

Oh and while we are at it… you give the Psyker the Purity of Thought bundle, which is two head options (we can argue about how silly it is that you want us to buy different color combinations), but then this time around you add the same head option again, but with some gold paint on it. The Purity of Thought being 2 head dresses for 1200 and the Crucian Vowguard (Ice Mourn) is basically the same head with some odd looking mask and gold (a single headdress) for 1400.

I mean, seriously? That is like selling a baseball cap 2 pack, one red one black for 10 bucks and then selling a Baseball cap with a gold trim for 12. It isn’t even that you could say “yeah, the materials are more expensive”. Can you at least space this stuff out? Did we really need the same head dress in a different color the on the next rotation slide?

Give us some diversity! Or at least have someone sit down and make sure there are no duplicates in the rotation, if you keep insisting that you don’t want our money with this rotation nonsense. You really don’t need to make it harder on yourselves.

You’re misunderstanding what the goal of Fatshark’s monetization is. It’s not for you, the person who actually remembers the quasi-ok prices of the start of this game. It’s for the brainless whales who’ll snap up everything without question and buy more aquilas to do so.

Why do you think it’s this hysterically awful rotating shop design? They don’t want anyone to remember older cosmetics, because then they can mess with the prices however they want. You going ‘hey you sold this thing for a third the price before, all you’ve done is recolored it, this isn’t fair’ is antithetical to what Fatshark wants from its customers.

The most disgusting thing about Fatshark is that they never reply to the concerns of the community.

Just look at Ghost Ship Games’ (DRG) latest message, they do respect their community and are honest in it.

While we’re being treated like “take it or leave it” and “don’t forget to vote”.

I would add that the lack of diversity is especially bad when it comes to weapon skins. We get a total of one new weapon skin every two weeks, if we’re lucky. Some weeks it’s a trinket instead. Some of the weapons you mention I would also be interested in a new skin for. I’m still waiting for a good looking eviscerator, a better bully club (this shouldn’t be hard quite frankly), and a decent looking crusher skin. Fatshark could have gotten money from me for those.

Instead we get a gazillion headgear, many of which recycle old assets. I don’t like the current store model, but I’m also not above throwing some aquilas after a good item if I think it’s worth it. But the current selection is just disappointing.

Likely because we have one of the most toxic communities that keep demanding nerfs and balancing around nerfs, instead of letting devs fix bugs, glitches and quality-of-life services.

A thing that annoys me is that many hats could easily be equippable for all humans, but aren’t. Like the steel rebreather for Zealot in the store atm, it can be equipped on Veteran which they will probably fix instead of just keeping it.

And yeah the duplicates on each character’s page are even more annoying than when they would not bother to look at the previous 2 revisions and put a headgear option in there twice. One time psyker had the same skull mask + psy collar headset on 2 revisions that were directly following one another…

It’s current rotation. You click on Psyker… you get black gold helmet for 1400… you turn the slide and get red/black and black/red bundled of the same helmet for 1200. It’s a click apart.

Wow. That’s even worse.

Yeah. It also gives me the impression nobody actually cares.

I mean you’d think the “between the years” rotation they would have done a special slide. Lots of people got presents and likely money sitting loose during all those sales… but instead of a “most wanted” extra Slide with the Krieg outfit and black Commissar cap… we get ugly pajama looking outfits and a recolor in white of the satelite dish/makeup mirror.

It’s like they don’t want money.
