Gibbing Applied to All Weapons?

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Bugs
1

Issue Type (Required):

Visual

Issue Description (Required):

Hello! With Hotfix #70, I have noticed that every weapon in the game appears to gib enemies; including “blunt” weapons such as the crusher, the infantry lasgun, or the special attack on Ogryn knives. This change does not seem to be listed anywhere; which leads me to believe that it was unintentional. However; if this change is intended, it gives what I believe to be an unnecessary amount of “overkill” to weapons that do not need it.

Perhaps it is petty or strange; but I don’t really like my lasgun ripping someone in half in one shot! The “piercing” visual aspect is something that makes these kinds of weapons feel gratifying.

Steps to Reproduce (Required):

  1. Ensure “Gibbing” is enabled in Video Options
  2. Enter the Meat Grinder
  3. Equip Infantry Lasgun
  4. Land a killing shot anywhere on an enemy’s torso. It will cleave them in half. Likewise for the head, limbs, etc.

[PC] Do You Use Mods? (Optional):

No, I don’t use mods

Reproduction Rate (Required):

Constant (100%)

Platform (Required):

PC - Steam

sorry sah, ogryn not understand.

no such thing as “overkill” :joy: only rashuns
chewy
tasty
bloody
rashuns…

but yeah, while i´m a great gore-connaisseur, everything parting in two gets a bit boring after a while.
guess they´ll fix it in a next patch

Even the Ogryn’s slap attack gibs now… It’s comical, but not intended, I hope

This would be a lot better of a weekly mod than some of the event mods. Just crank the gore up, but also do the ragdoll effect. It would better convey the current strength of the strike team.

I don’t know what you’re talking about

Yeah, I’ve been noticing this, too. It’s kinda silly when I hit a mutant with a club and he gets cut in half.

Update: another thread remarking on this has been acknowledged! Hopefully a fix will be forthcoming.
