Did Fatshark really feel this was the best use of their time? I would love a response explaining why they are so focused on killing deeds completely. It’s very interesting.

Looking forward to trying the new map! I really enjoyed the last one.
It’d be better to add an option to buy the old daily reward chests (for new players or people starved for dust to spend shillings), and maybe have another shilling sink in the form of keep repairs later - they could even add props (furniture, statues etc., cannons and so on) that cost shillings too long term. In the mean time they could add more new cosmetics instead of a handful of over-expensive ones.
3k shillings is absolutely ridiculous as far as prices go, I’d rather buy the cheaper items then. imo 900 shillings was already pushing it for one item but I’m at least willing to buy fancy hats for that amount, charge any more (like this) and I’ll just save my shillings until FS releases new items with reasonable prices again. Especially if the price hikes get any worse.
Sadly I think the price hike can ONLY get worse, as people (like me) are waiting for SPECIFIC THINGS they’ve seen in trailers or… SIGMAR FORBID… played in the modded realm when a patch allowed hats into the official realm. There are people waiting for Bardins Eyepatch for example, or the Hemlet FK wears in the launch trailer.
People who stockpile Shillings will be able to play 3k for something they like. I’ve got 2k now with nothing I want to spend it on. Another couple hundred this week, same again next week, I’ll be able to buy a 2.5k hat when the Last map drops - but I won’t because it’ll either be money for old rope, or 5k each hat. and so on. 100k for a hat by Christmas?

Or new non-recoloured armour skins… I expect there to cost 10k+ if they ever release some

I’m trying to think of why the hats in the game files haven’t been added to the emporium. Holding them back is obviously causing a fair bit of backlash from the community. I personally don’t really mind when new cosmetics come in but I can’t help but wonder at the seemingly nonsensical approach of releasing a couple of hats at a time.
It would make sense if the community didn’t already know that the hats were in the game files but this is public knowledge now. Just very confused.
Can’t wait to play the new map though. I have heard good things and Old Haunts is one of my current favourites.

Love the new map. It’s great. Played it in full on Cata and Legendary, was fun on both. The end fight was a bit light on difficulty maybe, but otherwise I’d say the map was great in every way. The art and atmosphere is awesome. Looking forward to further exploring all the nooks and crannies for the books and quests as well. Thank you Fatshark!
About the new hats: I kind of see why they need to be expensive, as otherwise people can buy up everything in the store as soon as it’s released, and the system collapses and you might as well give out the new cosmetics for free. Maybe the prices are a bit high, though? And is there a certain reason why so few of all cosmetics in the game (Hats, but also Weapon Skins!) are available in the store and only a handful got added? Are there technical limitations we don’t know about? Because seriously, I can’t fathom why there are so few cosmetics in the store. It would seem like a relatively “easy” addition that would make everybody happy to simply place all current cosmetics in the store, or am I wrong?
And regarding the killing of Deeds: See the bajillion topics opened on that…

And just look at the “new” hats added to the game. Just look at HM hat. LOL.

Is there any reason why the Blood in the Darkness is locked in the mission selection?
Endless supply of shillings leads to inflation, the prices will keep going up like said here already.
Deed switching disabled so players can’t play deeds? Will they cost money in a future patch?
Will Skittergate cost to play too? Can’t get your shiny Helmgart armor if you don’t pay for controlled passage through the gate.
Edit: Fatahark, please play your own game, even for just a match per week per each of you involved in VT2. And not in your LAN servers but in public games with real out-of-your-hands networks. Also with the exact same version the rest of us are playing.
You can still play deeds, you just can’t play them on random maps.
What?
Deeds on cata or on dlc maps + twitch were the only thing that kept me playing and makes me come back. I guess all i have now is twitch, guess it’s time to move over to the modded realm.
Not a mistake in the traditional sense, but certainly could use some revision in hindsight.
Thanks for your feedback folks. In a lot of ways, we are on board here and agree we need to look at this another time. For now, we will remove those hats from the emporium and introduce 5 different weapon illusions in their place. This should happen in the coming hour or two.
Anyone who has purchased a hat will be in a unique position for a short time whilst we work to refund the purchase and remove the item ahead of reintroducing it/them in a future update at a revised cost.

Love the new map. It’s awesome and at the end even “nurgly” enough.

The new map is indeed really cool. I have one question though. Does anyone here has low fps issues when playing it?
Hmm… maybe the Beastmen ate my fps. 80-90% of all roamers/hordes were Beastmen… and I remember everything running smoothly 'till they showed up.
Yeah its ridiculous on what FS views as “more” important. ffs
any deeds that were lower difficulty I would just play them on cata… but i guess thats not FS approved fun.
yeah this is a common issue with VT. Bad optimization. I have a 980ti and run on 1080p and i have trouble getting a steady framerate. Maybe we can hope for a patch in a few years xD
Unfortunately I think you’re right, but I guess that’s why we’re here - hopefully FS will reconsider.
Agreed, it’d also counteract them needing to raise prices artificially to provide a shilling-sink since if there was a big selection of reskins people would have plenty to spend their currency on.
The problem I see with having prices this high is newer players or anyone who takes a break will be put off, and it discourages spending even for people who have hoarded money because they never know if a hat they like more is going to come out in future at an even higher price.
Thanks for letting us know Hedge
Dont think so.
I do have stutters because of my damn i5 6600k tho.And I still turn off local shadow something-something…
Has that been resolved btw, did anyone notice something?
Am back fresh from my first completion of the new map on Legend. I gotta say, this was a blast, really fun, and actually felt rather challenging at the end there.
Kudos, Fatshark! It was rather enjoyable, and I hope this trend of really good maps continues.
