Hive Scum Reveal is Scum

The new class reveal is utterly dissappointing. Complete garbage.

Way to disappoint everyone by delaying the reveal just to disappoint everyone further by adding a class no one wanted.

Everyone since literally the launch of the game : We want a mechanicus class!

Fatshark : We’ve heard you wanted a hive ganger so here!

I always knew i’d be disappointed and we’d never get a mechanicus based class. But still had a sliver of hope that maybe for once we’ll actually get something cool and unique for once…

Our rejects haven’t taken back tertium yet because they haven’t thought to use a crowbar yet, that will turn the tide!

I just thought it was funny they took a week to dress up Hive Ganger by calling them…Scum!

You think they delayed the announcement to change a word and not to do something about the incredibly funky animations in the trailer?

It definitely doesn’t appeal much to me, but I’m just glad they’re adding new classes. I just hope it isn’t absurdly OP and further breaks the already fraught game balance…

I could go outside right now and see a “Hive Scum”.

This should’ve been a Beastman if this was the archetype they wanted, it would’ve at least been interesting then.

I bet they brainstormed for three days
to replace “Ganger” with a “cool, but not offensive” word.

”Scum” was borderline offensive, but not-gender-specific,
so they went the RISKY route this time.

Also:
No Scribe.

there were animations beyond the crowbar hit? lol

However as someone who enjoys dressing like a clown and incredibly fast kicky gameplay I am probably going to buy it.

All the men run like little imps lol

I’m not convinced on the gameplay yet personally. Need to see more info/video.

they were clearly mo capping old pre-Return of the King orc footage where they looked like they ran with a full load in their diapers. maybe that’s a new heretic to fight? one with poop-filled drawers?

The most offensive thing about the trailer is the ogryn looking away like a b**ch when he`s about to be executed.

Feels like a GW decision to me.

I expected something like ganger simply because it fits. But from I’ve read, I just can’t get over how basic two of the 3 auras is, they invented some chemical system but can’t make cooler auras, even something as obvious as stimms boost, so players could finally start use them.

Putting an aura effect only on a consumable item would be a lot worse for gameplay than just reusing some of the existing auras. I think the worst offender from reading it is the COMBAT ABILITY being wasted on dropping a crate for your buddies. Like surely that does something to buff the Scum too right? Your main regenerating class identity?

We have to wait for gameplay, to answer your question.

The Mechanicus has fallen
