My two main guys, who hadn’t touched Darktide for over 2 years, came back during the previous event where you gave 500 aquillas as bonus.
Both of them bought the new Scum DLC and were hooked again on Darktide’s amazing combat.
But as these things go, there’s only so many times that you can play the same missions, trying different builds, before the game loop becomes stale.
What I’m trying to say is, with no aquillas bonus this time, we don’t have the motivation to play this event.
The new Insignia would be nice, if there was a way to display all your insignia collection somehow, but on it’s own it’s not enough for us to log in and play the game again.

In normal non event missions, if I could choose between boom bringer or regenerating kraks on the same character, I would 1000% choose the kraks. Regularity is king in current balance of DT.
If the rockets destroy everything on the screen then it doesn’t matter too much as the screen will be full of enemies again within seconds.
Rockets definitely need turning down but as they don’t regen I don’t think everyone needs to get the pitchforks out tbh.

Disagree hard, the only thing that actually kills you is situations where you get overwhelmed. Kraks don’t do as much in those as a boombringer. You don’t actually need any grenade to kill a trickle of enemies, so the Krak value in those situations isn’t actually impactful.
The regen difference is fair but that honestly doesn’t matter much if you get 4 of them. You’ll usually find another grenade pickup before you had to spend all 4. And if you play Havoc and the team is actually co-operating then every single grenade pickup goes to you.
Agreed. Now events that make things interesting like maps set on fire, saving or destroying rations to get ruched by mods of staring people or angry ogryns, or SOME of that nature would be better. hell, rewards in Aquilas would be nice. I get FatShark has a strategy, but they should honestly update it at this point and look at other studios like Arrowhead and Ghostship Studios. not only in terms of events but just how they treat their player base and reward them.
Also if this is Tencents idea they can go shove it.
