Feature Highlight - Skitarii Game Design & Talents

I think the ammo talent will be great on H40 and no ammo missions. Less so on lower difficulties where you rarely have ammo problems anyway.

Not to get offtopic, have not played warframe for 6 years, it seems more popular now than ever, how was it killed? if im not mistaken very recently they almost broke the highest number of concurrent players. 180,000 or something. Dakrtide is newer, from a better IP and its not even one tenth of that.

disagree – that would be lame. This would feel more tactical. Use in emergency.

He probably meant that its original identity was “killed” to pander to what the majority of the playerbase wanted, and that was being unapologetically OP and being capable of deleting everything on the screen with just one press of a button. I played Warframe recently, and you can easily wipe the floor with enemies with how powerful you can get. After a while, I got bored because every mission felt like the same snooze fest. I literally had YouTube on the second monitor, so I wouldn’t fall asleep while playing this game. But I guess I’m the minority here, as there is a giant demand for turn-your-brain-off-and-enjoy-the-brainless-carnage-on-screen type of games. A 180,000 players kinda demand.

It might make the game flavorless slop without identity or need for any skill in its gameplay, but it sells, and I’m gonna be really sad if it happens to Darktide, too.

“never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups” hasnt lost its truth over the decades.

typical spring break bucket slurpers on the iq level of jersey shore actors… if only they’d stay confined in that one game, one could use it as quarantine :joy:

I mean, it’s probably that most, if not all, of these people are the working class that wants to come back home and relax by shutting their brains off. Games like this offer that relaxation, and after 8 hours of hard work, I can’t really be surprised that they want some brainless fun.

It’s just… Why does my game have to be the one to be destroyed and turned into that kind of “fun”? Make your own brainless-carnage game and leave my beloved skill-requiring game with deep mechanics alone, Goddamnit!

if you chose a work that requires hard manual labor no other is obliged to accommodate that in any shape or form, much like the soldier shouldnt complain if the other side of the trench starts shooting back.

lots of single player options for the brainless crowd too, you opt to play with other people its not yours to decide to drag them down to your level but to clench your butt cheeks and buckle up.

in a sense i miss the days of quake live/arena, tiny playerbase but them folk wouldnt quit for nothing.

Because this is Darktide it most likely will not be like that, yet also may get deemed as a “crutch” by challengers that seem to be the ilk of Havoc 40 enjoyers whom don’t consider the less than hard-comp players

Remember varlets there are nodes that are just not as satisfying as nodes that will be desired

That is the way

The ability? absolutely lmao

sometimes yeah, or longer

Warframe isn’t dead but adding healing characters to DT would mangle the gameplay beyond recognition so it resembles warframes walk into a room and kill everything and never die gameplay

Replenish 1% of your Ammo Reserve every 15 seconds…

So,we nerf vet and scum’s ammo reserve and for what,do we need to nerf this skill after 2 months?

definitely a malice only player. Which then makes me question why youd think its strong with how fast missions end at such a difficulty

do you play havoc? Because ammo is definitely an issue when you dont have survivalist on the team

Sure am :+1:

But kidding aside no i just have some common sense and can read what the ability does, and once you read it you’ll realize its OP, its also the reason ogryns guns feel weak without it, because its so strong, if the ability got nerfed ogryns guns could get buffed and feel better without heavily investing into them

i dont see what being carried by 3 other good players has to do with anything. Because you clearly arent talking like someone that understands the game at all

is this where you pretend that “you guys are overreacting” and “let them do it” isn’t a defense/endorsement of them making it p2w?

it’s one thing acknowledging the nature of their business and understanding they’re gonna do p2w out of greed

it’s another actually downplaying it and suggesting people should be ok with it. the game would be far better if they never did p2w power creep again. it’s an issue that seriously messes with game balance

also your defense of tencent is still emotional and you’re baselessly convinced they’re hands off. all the evidence says otherwise

yeah i dont understand anything about this game please explain it all to me

like, have you not seen cole’s scoreboard of him doing over 3 mil damage with gunlugger in a rotten armor havoc 40? twin linked achlys btw, oh and it was done before the crusher spawn nerfs too :laughing:

So please go ahead and explain to me how ogryn is the worst class and PBB is the worst ability in game :rofl:
ill wait

I’m not trying to go to bat for Tencent by any means.
But, even with my short time as a Darktide-only FS customer (really only since unlocked and loaded, though i played the beta), at this point you really shouldn’t be giving FS any benefit of the doubt.
