What happens if they hit you with the, “It’s intended and was always intended to be this way.”
Then an eternity of gameplay feedback threads. It’s worked at least once.

I think it’s 1 month til release of the blog, not the update
Nary a bit, lol. Just not f***ing blind.
These infographics are right there in the trailer. To say nothing of the Steam page.
Currently selling for $90, $30 more than the base game. Note also the cosmetic DLC.
And the SUPER Bonus version currently selling for $100. No word yet on what the Champion Pack entails but a cosmetic pack is a decent guess and, honestly, that’s better than locking actual weapons, talents, etc. behind real money, but we’ll just have to wait and see.
Also, if you guys can’t smell monetization and microtransaction BS from a mile away by now, after decades of gaming industry experience and any exposure to it at all in its current state, I guess you kinda deserve to be taken for rubes.

Then hopefully the abysmal use rates of those blessings will eventually convince them of what a stupid idea that is.
Honestly though I’d rather hear that than go on thinking they’ve left it bugged over a 30 second value edit for like 6+ months.

Gamer challenge: don’t pay 50% more for a game for some dumb virtual trinkets and a fancy box.

The way I read it, is that the stuff included in the update on jun25 are the two bullet points, but they’re working on the itemization stuff and will release a blog.
Yea, my sense is that itemization isn’t included in this update and that they’ll release a “part 2” map (like with Traitor’s Curse and Rejects Unite I think?) that finishes off the story beat thematically introducing the rework.
First of all, thanks for bringing back the Krieg set, one of my favorite vesture sets. Due to the work schedule, I missed its initial launch.
Nonetheless, I find that the alternative helmets that came with Krieg set last time are not available this time. Its such a great loss cuz these alternative helmet selections are gorgeous and more compatible with the other Krieg parts.
Could you make a resale of these vestures, in doing so we make the come back of the sets more complete.

I sneak into FS late at night and fix it myself.

What does ‘but is not limited to’ mean?
does this mean that there are other updates that cannot be detailed at this time?
I would have liked to have at least some new weapons, such as the Psyker’s staff and the Zealot.
my guess is that the weapons not mentioned here are still being tested and were not ready to be released on the scull in time, so there was no teaser including weapon introductions.
You can start a go fund me for hacking into FS’s servers. They’ll be so confused when they log in one day and all the bugs caused by lua typos are magically gone.

Most likely just that there will be a suite of bug fixes, balance adjustments, and possibly UI/QoL improvements to go with. They’re just not committing yet to what or how much of those will make it in.

it means the plan was to have itemization ready for this but fatshark code was fatshark code and they found more problem than they thought they would.
I wonder…do we really need bolt pistol? We already have op revolver…

I would rather have liked to have the 2h force sword or 2h power weapons instead tbh.
Ever since someone showed the data mined 2h force sword after release I’ve been waiting for hit to officially come out.
But instead we get ported pickaxes, upscaled mauls and another shotgun. I hope the bolt pistol is at least somewhat fun to use, but I’m expecting to be underwhelmed again. Just like this entire ‘event’.
I like what was supposed to be an easy win in regards to marketing for a sponsored GW event that gets a lot of eyes; instead turns into a multi-faceted pain point for Darktide. I feel for ya, I really do.

Copy/ Gears 5/ Paste / Space Marine 2 Profit 
I hope not.
While i enjoyed the twins (alright i tried to type this sentence out three times and it still sounds like an innuendo), the map did not really have to much replayability after beating it on hardmode, at least not for me personally.
I would just prefer a normal map on a different tile set.
