Short term:
- Weapon variant
- Missing weapons (2h PSword; 2h FSword; 2h CAxe; Shock Maul; Melta; Longlas) and “easy weapons” Weapons whose models have already been made, or which could reuse animations from VT2 (Ogryn Maul and Knife; Ogryn Shield+X; Catachan Sword and Dagger; Catachan Twin Sword; Bolt Staff; reworked Beam Staff…)
- Missions in the current sectors
- Enemies added to the Dreg and Scab: Dreg Sorcerer; Plaguebearers
Long term:
- Modes:
→ Chaos Waste (Second Hive)
→ Wall of Martyr: Horde mode with in mission trading and building mechanics
→ Wall of Martyr Ranked - Other Chaos Cults
- New archetype (Admech)
- New weapons
- New classes
→ Veteran: Stormtrooper
→ Zealot: Enforcer

And we won’t need NASA computers to play the game when a Psyker decides to run Smite.

I agree, but alongside the new maps we need fresh mission objectives. I think Archivum Sycorax did a really good job of it with the new alarm deactivation objective earlier in the mission. More unqiue maps (quality over quantity) would be best. Don’t even get me started on how badly I want new weapons. Pairing a Hellgun with a Power Sword, Executioner’s Stance and Krak Grenades would be perfection. Loyalist Gunner gang.

Darktide Chaos Wastes is pretty well essential to the long-term continuity of Darktide, the missions could be some mostly calm salvage objectives in Atoma’s other Hive, (please don’t execute me, Sergeant Morrow) or perhaps even on a Space Hulk located somewhere near Atoma’s orbit which could have a periodic event which randomly phases the mission site in and out of the Warp, leaving behind some new Daemonic enemies that will attack you in waves or something whenever you’re not facing normal enemies.

off the top of my head.
more enviromental collectables.
red tier weapons.
inquisitorial crusader knight sword and shield, and eventually the outfit to go with it.
ogryns three voice pack run into allot of repeat voices happening on ogryn heavy teams, so at the very least either some female editions or three more voices to very it up for big ladds.
weapon attatchment tinkering for sure.
more wild character facial and body options options, warpaints, abnormal skin and eye tones, genetic deviations [theres allot of weird looking human types in 40k], more hairstyles and cant forget cybernetics, I want to make myself a right proper freak.
fist weapons, power fists, brass knuckles and claws of sorts.
enforcer shield and mace.
Squats and beastmen.

New playable character: Pariah/Blank
There is one that is themed on them, but had no helmet iirc.
Weirdly enough there is a dialogue hook for a 4th Ogryn that was datamined (Ogryn_d)
I want to have Necromunda level of coloured hairs and hairstyle tbh.
None of those really have much potentials, like Beastmen could be a special skin/cosmetic where they simply change the voice lines (Like how the masks do, just making the voice more guttural and maybe making new cheer voice lines)
Squats have PoV issues (Yes Bardin has the same PoV, but the maps are made differently and they already have 2 PoV)
Blanks would just make it weird with Psykers, and they don’t have any inherent ability

Hopefully the character customisation is overhauled so we can easily utilise all your ideas post-introduction. I don’t wanna create a new character just to play as a female Ogryn, for example.
They’d only really be useful against… Monstrosities. Everything else would just be a default sorta playstyle.
aye, I brouched the subject before but it quickly devolved.
Don’t even, not even for a stupid joke.
It’s a gameplay feature for players. lets leave it at that.
legit we got people chopping off allot worse and self mutilating over weirder stuff in universe. And thats even before they potentially join a heretic cult.

I’ll gladly take abhumans as cosmetic changes over whole new classes. More options are a win baby!
For Beastmen (And Felinid) it can work, but for Squats and Ratling it doesn’t, as much as Reginald may think

maybe so, but stranger things have happened.
great thing about rogue trader/inquistor ships.
They have allot of room in the lore to hire all sorts of weirdos.
xenos are on the table too, and it works out if your just sending them to kill [and maybe die] against bigger problems.
new weapons
Hotshot: Ryza and Lucius Issue Hotshot lasguns with scopes and cadian hotshot lasguns Hotshot marksman rifle, Hotshot-pistols.
lasguns: M36, TripleX , mars and Voss, Fractrix pattern assault laser., Long-las
Bolts: Bolt-pistol, Heavy bolters
Solid Porjectile: Boltaction rifle (Rogue trader RPG hunting rifle), Naval-pistol (breach load Slug and Buckshot) , MkXVI Long shot Sniper rifle with ammo Variants (standard Shot, Toxin, Flash, Peneration and Frag), Ripper pistol (Low damage, Toxin DOT, Armour pieceing)
Needle: needle-pistol and Needle rifle
Flamer: Hades Assualt flamer (increase ammo but reduce damage and range), hand Flamer,
Plasma: plasma-pistol. Plasma carbine (variant of Plasmagun) as seen in the Hammer of the emperor’s RPG karskin model.
melee weapons: Power fist, Power axe Force axe, twohanded weapons Helbards, Maces, sword and shield, Commnad Batton.
New Places and enviroments like Boarding and Counter boarding of enemy ships, with a community or team focused outcomes and challangers like raiding missions reach X point from the community in the week you get a reward by the end of it, or Repair missions reduce the cost of upgrading weapons. enemies and deamons like Khorne, slannash, and Tzeentch. not even the high end ones you can throw the furies and lower level deamons that come out, using the higher end like Heralds and Champions as Bosses. while new enemies from the xenos races isn’t likely the Dark eldar or Eldar Cosiars that try and board or choas cultist. GSC could be used in the asteroids belt but it is difcult to balance it for humans.
we have space stations and astroids habitats to Take control offer defend angist a horde of enemies.
new form of Secoundries and primary objectives, like rescue civilians and escort them out, or extract a agent, use of Vechiles and PDF and other units that are behind lines or friendly that you encounter.
For classes wise a set of new branches
Veteran- gunner/Stomrtrooper- with a Ult of a wipe out heavy weapons. like a Hotshot vollygun or a heavy stubber.
Veteran drop trooper with a jump pack.*
Zealot arco- fllagent
Zealot- Crusader
Ogyrn- Battle servitor
Psyker deamon-host (if Inqustior is a radical), otherwise new psychic powers like Telepathy frenzy, confusion and other powers. Biomancy powers like Warpseed and iron-arm. Emperor’s Gaze and the Vortex of Doom!!. which would be cool powers.
new arch type of
Skitarri with a 3 branches being Ranger, Vanguard and Rust stalkers/Infriltators
Tech-adept/priest who over time developed into different disciplines
Rattling with a DRG style Grappling hook.
- the reason why isuggust this is so we can build on the new found sense of verticuallity that is we are getting. in v2 it was relatively flat interms of the game with a few jumping puzzles here and there. with us able to climb thngs of waist highet we should be able to climb stuff of head hight and a Jump pack would be a interesting way to explore the games from the roof tops of the shanty towns or the top of rail cars of course the invisible walls will still be there but it a interesting opportunity.

More location variety is mandatory. Or, that’s not true, there is a lot of variety, but if I can get something completely different it would be nice. More cosmetics or modular cosmetics. It’s very easy to see all the game has to offer in very little time and bounce off of it.
This is in addition to continuing their great work on the skill trees and skill balancing. They’ve made so many massive changes so far that I have no doubt good things are to come.
