Critical negelct from Developer

I was held prisoner in my own lobby for almost 35 minutes.

He joined, both bots were glued to him and he only moved slightly to prevent the afk kick.

He started moving as soon as someone began to join which I didn’t realize when I recorded at the end.
I just thought I won the test of endurance, f*cking 35 mintues.

Player B (the person that joined at the end of the video) instantly also wanted to kick Player A. He had prior experiences with this player and told me he is a known toxic troll.

Why are you supporting this Fatshark? Why can I not kick people out of my own lobby?

Why is there no report function ingame? I had to make a forum account to report someone is this a game from 2002 or 2022?

What will be done against the trolls you are supporting by negelcting any and all functions to prevent being trolled Fatshark? (small hint: solo mode would fix this)

If he won’t get banned or any other serious steps will be taken I’ll see this as a green light from Fatshark to troll everyone and anyone from this point on

You can do a report at https://support.fatshark.se/hc/en-us/requests/new

It’s been there the entire time, but it’s never been really highlighted that you can do that there, in-game or out.

I have also had issues with this specific person before.
That said, it is against forum rules, to „name and shame“ anyone on the forum for anything they did inside the game.

My two cents but
if you’re gonna stick to a game for half an hour doing absolutely nothing, you should probably leave the mission yourself and do something better. Block him and move on tbh.
in those 30 minutes of you playing the game of “who can Idle longer” you could’ve instead started AND finished the same mission. Being petty is just lame

There are undeniable improvements we need to make in the realm of reporting, I wholeheartedly agree that you should be able to make reports In-Game, along with other mechanisms to prevent missions being held hostage.

I’ll have to redact the names here, but in the mean time, I recommend submitting a report over in our Support Portal and our moderator Alan will see to it.

A Fatshark employee is actually admitting that there’s a feature missing from the game.

I’m gonna go buy a lottery ticket.

Yea a lottery ticket seems about right today

I reported the issue via support portal minutes later thanks to people on the discord which I also had to join to get navigated towards it. the whole sytsem you got currently is absolute ass.

I appreciate the acknowledgement of failure on the behalf of the devteam, but this isn’t even a feature or a mechanic thats missing. thats just the core and bone every game is build upon, bug reports which again aren’t even possible, and it really shows within this trainwreck of a game

mostly off-topic, but you don’t HAVE your own lobby. darktide’s missions are run on their servers, not yours. you’re simply matched to them.

next time this happens, just leave

ps. you can go in steam overlay, recent players and block them in steam

I only had 1 martyr skull left to do at that point and was on the map for it which I opened last second on the mission board. I would’ve just left trust me, but I wanted to be done with the skulls.
Also you can never be sure, thanks to well thought out mechanics by fatshark, when you will be able to play the mission next.

it shouldn’t be too hard to do things games did for the last 20 years

To be honest the game needs a custom match/private match option bad.

In quick play its one thing as everyone is just thrown together but i dont think OP was in quick play so moot point. Forcing people to join a fully public match every time needs to end. People should be permitted to play with as many or as little people as they want…period. control over a custom game would be so nice…
