Delete Twitter

For the love of the Emperor, stop this farce on Twitter with those “”“teasers”“”.

Either fire guy responsible for this, or tell them to shut it.

I can’t belive anyone sane see those, and goes:
“Yeah, thats totally fine way of community interaction, lets keep posting those.”

When Elon has took over Twitter, I have pushed the button delete my account.
When I have seen the new name of Twitter, it made mer laugh an entire day…

I actually use bluesky.

Honestly, Fatshark doesn’t know how to communicate. They should fire the heads of the department or the ones in charge of this point. They need to watch what all other successful games do.
Catfish is not even here… I suppose the lack of freedom pushed her to an other job. Anyways, she could not do anything.

No. At least not as of 3 weeks ago.

Just reading the comments alone should make them reconsider their communication. It’s nothing but hate and vitriol.

One could wish, but sad reality comes crashing.

Fatshark is inept with any form of communication, and it doesn’t looks likely to change, as it would have change years ago, if it could.

Imagine they posted something like this instead:

They’d rather give us pick axes, shovels and knives instead of iconic 40k weapons.

They can’t… it would give informations to players and they would take the risk to get more players for the game.

oh yeah just so much vitriol, with all the players wondering whats going on. How dare people be confused by what Fatshark are doing, how very dare people get upset that we are in the dark about the future of the game.

You sir, are a plonka.

I’m agreeing with the comments though? Are you okay buddy?

Yeah, it’s cringe. I can’t believe they’re doing emoji teasing for a Warhammer playerbase. You know, the universe that mostly attracts males in their late 20s and 30s, because only then can you afford this hobby. Fatshark are so out of touch it’s unreal.

oh my, I see it now.

Your phrasing is so close to others I’ve seen who’ve said “I wouldn’t post either, its nothing but hate and vitriol here.”

I’m geuinely sorry, you’re not a plonka at all. I am.

No worries. I don’t understand people defending FS either. You’re right to be mad about them.

We’re getting Twitter emojis because Fatshark is run by people who seem to be operating under the delusion that Darktide is Incredibly Popular and that they can generate interest with something this banal.

Remember last year’s Skulls and how they talked themselves up for delivering mediocre patches and a few new maps?

That’s the mindset of Fatshark executives.

I sincerely wish for them to go bankrupt and for Arrowhead to absorb all the remaining talented people who worked there. Those people deserve better bosses.

Didn’t Arrowhead just get an ex-paradox guy as a CEO? I’d be careful what I wish for. Paradox is known for some of the worst MTX out there. You might get monkey pawed on that wish of yours.

Paradox, at least for the games I’ve played of theirs, has consistently delivered new content and largely bug-free experiences while also communicating regularly with the players and being mostly receptive to feedback.

So yeah I’d take Paradox and their 1000 DLC approach over Fatshark’s silence and MTX gouging.

The burning heap of trash that was Cities Skylines 2 begs to differ. So bad in fact that they reimbursed people that paid for the DLCs.

It might just be swedish developers being cursed to fail. I don’t have much hope in Arrowhead either.

I’m a Stellaris enjoyer. Some of their outsourced dlc messed with the game balance for months but other than that they’ve been consistent. Their comms are excellent too, even if some of the devs look openly terrified of talking to the camera.

Edit: while their community is in a good place they take no lip on their forum. Slag off their QA or their devs and you get deleted. Overall, that does seem better for the health of the community and makes the devs feel safe to communicate more often.

Skylines 2 could be blamed on that, it was developed not by Paradox itself.
Other GSG games though…
Well, let’s say the road had ups and downs, and wasn’t bugfree.

One thing that needs to be handed to them, is that they’re quite good at community management and all this dev dairy business.

It does seem like the entire darktide team has (voluntarily or not) dedicated themselves to working on these two updates they’ve teased (crafting being seemingly separate from the new map).
I don’t think any CM has been heard from on this forum for some time, whereas Vermintide CMs are active still.

Whoever told them to do this is a uh… :gear: :pick: :ice_cube:
