Exciting Gameplay Suggestion - Quickplay Skaven Invasionne player in normal games

Warhammer: Vermintide 2 General Discussion

Hello Fatshark Team,
My suggestion is to allow a fifth player to invade Quickplay games as a Skaven, similar to the Versus mode. This would not only introduce an element of surprise and unpredictability but also create a more dynamic and challenging experience for both the invading Skaven player and the party trying to complete the mission.

I understand that implementing such a feature might come with its own set of challenges, but I believe it could significantly enhance the overall gameplay and provide players with a fresh and engaging experience. Of course, the option to enable or disable this feature could be provided to accommodate different preferences.
I envision this addition injecting a sense of real danger and excitement into the game, knowing that a human-controlled Skaven lurks in the shadows. It could encourage more strategic planning and teamwork, making each Quickplay session a unique and memorable adventure.

Best regards,

I guess you guys can recycle twitch system to allow the invasor skaven to modify the match like in helldivers 2 (with perks gained in chests) . This assymetric gameplay is proven to work in games like Dead by Daylight. The skaven could won chests with perks that they can use during the matches and Finally you guys can implement a rank with status like damage done to heroes , incapacitations,wipes. The heroes could won frames for allowing the skavens to invade and you guys could monetize with new skins for skavens or maybe new type of skavens. You guys could recycle many systems that are already develop and implement in this new mode. I believe this kind of pvp would not be frustrating for both parties involved since the heroes choose an additional challenge and the skaven is there to create unexpected situations and make the match harder and not necessary win the match.

Best Regards a fan of your game.

Interesting idea but getting into a Versus game without asking for one will probably not be very popular with most players.

Never, I repeat, NEVER, force PvP in a PvE game. That is a very bad idea.
If the option exists, and some people are willing to get into it, fine, give them the option. But if you force this you are essentially changing the game they purchased. Not good.
