Dear fellow forum enjoyers!
What ever happened to the new Veteran weapon that Fatshark mentioned was in the works?
I know little about game development, but doesn’t it seem strange that it would take months of work to release a single weapon?
I don’t know, maybe there’s more coming with that update and that’s why it takes so long, but I wouldn’t mind knowing what the weapon is intended to be, but I also know that’s not how Fatshark operates unfortunately.
They are probably obligated/want to to have things for Warhammer Skulls in 2-3 weeks, so even if the new weapon is ready it makes more sense to wait for that.
It was the power sword fix 6 months after the fact!
In all seriousness though, I’m a bit surprised they didn’t just add the Relic 2-hander and call it a day.
Congratulations! You’re about to get one or two new weapons or a new map. After waiting for so long, this update is just amazing!
Give me the dreg gunners stubber and the scab gunners hotshot volley gun!
It would make sense for Veteran to have a ranged weapon since you know … it’s a ranged class at start !
Except they made an entirely new system/way to play with the stubber and hotshot i don’t think it will take 6 months to make another LMG when Ogryn’ heavy stubbers and braced autoguns already exists.
I don’t know the 40k universe well but maybe it’s a weapon type who isn’t that common inside the Astra Militarum (Even if I still think a small grenade launcher like in the “Tithe” would be great … also keep the bigger boom for Ogryns !)
Unfortunately, all the dev resources that everyone hoped would go into new weapons, maps, bosses, and enemies have been spent on Havoc, Party Finder, and Mortis.
Versus, which took years to develop, ended up with no one playing it less than half a year after release.
Havoc is already heading down the same path.
Fatshark… what are you even trying to do?
They have the worst business decisions and it’s starting to be noticed.
Like all the sane players that once enjoyed DT but saw the scam, we left, but I’m staying here to see the downfall and I can’t wait to laugh at another useless map delivered to kill vanilla mobs.
Its coming soon like Vs was coming soon to VT2 (5 years after the trailer)
“coming soon” it was also on their vt1 launcher for “mods”
even if there were mods anyway, they were lazy still and never got it working and this button basically was pointless
Idk if it’s the need to train the new CM or just plain old Fatshark Silence but we’re five months into the year and still don’t know what’s next.
Mortis Trials…exists? Nobody really asked for it in the way it turned out but whatever. Havoc continues to be a trash heap of bad design. Ogryn patch was good but still trying to stem the tide of power creep.
What is coming up?
Yea, we didn’t get too too much out of the ‘24 accouncement, which in retrospect feels more like a “itemization changes are coming, but not yet” warning to me. But it was nice to have a high-profile addition announced early and delivered. I’d love something similar for ‘25!
no one knows. I was really hyped for new weapons a power axe would be amazing for vet and maybe zealot
power axe is gonna be a rashad with more armor damage 
new weapons are justr gonna add fuel to the fire
Good call, almost forgot about skulls event!
Genuinely aggravated me we waited months for something new to play with and fatshark was just like heres an ogryn rework and havoc changes peace out see you in a few months. I guarantee you we get nothing all summer until july and then in october we get one more update and thats it. How long they make us wait between drops is absurd and i cannot wait till september so i can stop playing this game but there wont be anything to miss anyway. Even if they drop new things ill get on god roll whatever is new play long enough to level them and then go right back to something else.
What if… weapons and maps have their own dedicated teams and not every dev worked on havoc…
Im sure this is true but that makes it even worse. Why on earth would you tell us 12 years ago that were getting a new weapon if you werent going to drop it for another two updates? They actually want us to go insane waiting for content. Just dont even mention the new weapon until were like a month away from it being released. Who made the decision to mention a weapon that we arent getting for 6 months or longer? I mean they have the worst communication ive ever seen because not only did they mention a new vet weapon we dont even know what wether its a ranged weapon or a melee weapon absolutely nothing except for the fact that it exists. It is astounding they mentioned this vet weapon like 5 months ago like really fatshark half a year of waiting for a weapon is that what were doing?
I, for one, can’t wait for both mks of Veteran’s new power fist.
It’s going to be so cool
And one more in the winter…aka the quarterly updates they promised in January 2023.
surely not, the weapon animators are most definitely developing the havoc modifiers and mutators
it simply just makes sense (no it doesnt)
