Penance improvements Have better trackers for keeping progress of what to do for penances.
Allow penances to be completed in solo mode, or allow them to be done in multiplayer mode if all players agree to it (like a vote kick option, if all players agree penances are enabled) It would be good to have a comment on if anything is planned for this, or if we can get commitment it isn’t happening.
Would folks say the penance update addressed this?
It would be looking more likely August/September+ for next large update.
Last year start of June they winded down development for summer break.
Not that their servers are going to be turned off soon. But offline single player and say include offline AI director. Would truly feel like you owned the game forever.
i.e.
Escape from Tarkov. I can play offline with adjustable bots AI with complete unlocked gear too but using unofficial mod, which runs a local webserver with lots of settings. I can give myself millions of currency, any gear whatever I desire and enjoy playing with different guns and attachments to tweak all day long. Obviously gear doesn’t carry to online mode.
Since Darktide AI director is server side. Such a thing could be achieved with local AI director at cost of increase game install size. Now imagine you could decide spawn rate, spawn enemy types, how many, exactly the kind of things in single player games. You could come up with some interesting scenarios.
Made some changes here. Not sure if there’s anything else. I think the RNG is resolved, according to democracy.
Oh shoot, was not expecting this to be revived.
Considering that it was introduced by error and was impacting a zealot cosmetic (that ceased to be available suddently until they remove shirtless option), i don’t think this is real.
However, the fact we don’t have it is not something that would annoy me if… We had cosmetic that show us body.
We have tatoo options but, except ogryn, they cannot be seen on our characters.
This is a long topic and I don’t have week to read through it all, but how about
MORE OGRYN WEAPONS!, pls. 
my biggest pet peeve RNG is pretty much resolved, thank the emperor. the random distribution doesn’t bother me. i buy now items from the commissary every time i hit the 25M dockets cap, and when i have them all i guess i can only bother Melk with my wishes.
i wish we could also empower curios to 21 h / 17 t / 3 s, that’s the only part where one has to camp the shops.
some random points:
a solo campaign would be a dream for anyone who wants to speedrun or do any challenge alone. it means longevity for the game. some classic shooters went through amazing improvements in speedrunning history. now just imagine darktide having the same development of speedrunning tricks.
as for custom bots, having my other characters with me would be the option that’s easiest to implement
the frozen screen when loading the mourningstar (the dreaded “hanging in orbit”) is my biggest pain atm regarding networking. there’s no way of knowing when it ends, so it’s often easier to alt-f4 and restart the game. something like the game freezing is such an obvious technical issue, it’s bound to drive players away.
isn’t it possible to load the mourningstar anyway, put the player in it and populate it later with more people? iirc the dark cache mod even keeps the little map in memory all the time.
the fomo shop: the prices are sky high, especially when you look at the last rotation, while barely different from standard issues. what annoys me even more though is that previously published sets rotate out and no one knows if and when they’ll be back. i’d buy some items that i’ve last seen 1.5 years ago, but fatshark doesn’t want my money.
the prices would be sweetened a lot if one could buy a premium skin and repaint it (or even just parts of it) with a set of custom colors.
Surprised thread survived the auto thread close of 7 days.
I understand Mourningstar immersion is built around walking here and there to different terminals to different menus, making the environment feel more “alive”. But once someone has reached few hundred hours they would rather just hit ESC then access all of it in one go.
Most of all I wish there was an archive storage to throw weapon clutter away so current inventory is more of live use inventory.
The infinite loading screen. Had good result from simply flushing DNS before loading Darktide. I created login script to do this automatically when I log into windows for convenience. You’ll see advice about changing DNS servers etc on reddit, no need to change DNS servers on your PC or at router level. Just keep using your current ISP DNS servers and just flush DNS before playing. I suspect the game connects via hostnames with constant changing A records pointing to different IPs and DNS cache keeping old records and trying to connect to redundant IPs.

Funny enough, I believe they’re using AWS and we (my work) have the same issue with AWS, their constant changing IP addresses for the ALBs and NLBs. We need to change our DNS as well.
