They no doubt are gonna add weapon customization, they are probably just working on implementing it smoothly into working with current resources.
That or they are working on monetizing it with aquilas.

Everything you posted in the OP, plus:

  • Mission board grid
  • Prefer Auric
  • Numeric UI
  • Hub hotkeys
  • Show weapons in lobby
  • Barter with Hadron
  • Player outlines
  • Spectator HUD
  • Talent Tree UX improvements

Probably a bunch of others… Anything that’s a QoL improvement or works around annoying, but otherwise unimpactful design choices.

Actually, weapon customisation is good, but it probably shouldn’t be there in its current state. It needs some balancing around what features you can add to given weapons.

From a QoL standpoint?
All of them deserve to be incorporated and merged into the game. Having all of the convenience stuff in just makes the game feel complete really.

All of those would be wonderful. Scoreboards and Weapon Customisation are definitely the top ones I really would like to see. I need to be able to equip my Helbore with a decent sight or my Stubber with a flashlight without fear of being banned. It’d bring a whole new area to Fatshark’s “make your build anything you want” idea.

  2. numerical UI
  3. healtbars
  4. DisableScreenEffect
  5. ui_extension
  6. camera freeflight

  10. Clean force block
  11. short Brunt
  12. Volley fire timer
  13. debuff indicators
  14. HUD tweaker
  15. Buff HUD Improvement
  16. Barter at Once

I don’t think they will change their mind about the scoreboard.
I do think it is useful for inspecting personal results if you want to measure your own performance statistically to optimize your gear etc…

But it really has no big impact to a regular user who recently picked this game up other than knowing if they did the most kills, damage, or in other stats than anyone else which does not directly reflect how useful you actually were as a teammate, regardless of which, players who are not in their right mind can still use it for toxicity or when they feel insecure about themselves.

If you can only see your own stats, fine. For displaying other players’ stats, better off as mod, no real downside to this.

Scoreboard is causing toxicity, meanwhile allowing newcomers jump on auric-maelstrom just for having lvl 30 isn’t. Sure Fatshark, sure.

Even if it is to get more data to measure for making assessments, maaaaybe it would’ve been a better idea to raise the bar for auric a tad bit first…

12

well scoreboard is bad idea the weapon customisation might be cheating

but creature spawner would be a good add

13

i dont know how many times we have to point this out but toxicity has been mentioned once by one cm . the really important reasons why scoreboards got dumped between v2 and dt is that they make people play worse and provide missleading info.

Hasn’t the author stated that they doesn’t consider the mod stable yet, as the reason for not making it available on Nexus?

It’s not as if Nexus if the definitive criteria on a mod being allowed or not (“bad” mods can exist on Nexus, just as “good” mods can exist outside of Nexus)

Of the mods listed that I’ve used, Spectator HUD, Reveal Blessings, Creature Spawner, Favourite Items would be nice as baseline.

So? It was mentioned still, and other reasons - not. Or like CM’s just saying their pure fantasies?

It’s just your assumptions, my assumnption is cause game was rushed to release.
Another question is scale of misinformation provided by scoreboard, like what, is it 90% wrong info on scoreboard?

And with V2 it was another story, V2 is p2p, so host is always in favor.

16

Out of those five;
Especially scoreboard and weapon customization.

But we ain’t gonna get none of those.

Oh, there’s a rename mod? damn, i’ll try that

no its not , we have the cms stating clearly on this forum scoreboard was deliberately left out and that type of info wouldnt be coming back. they did say they wer elookign at other possibilites of spreading info.

on this forum we have been going over the negative impacts of the scoreboard every few months since launch theres little need to go through it again. tldr cliff notes

  1. measures performance not capacity, ie the best way to use the scoreboard to improve is to play with 3 noobs who cant handle the difficulty.

1b. this also means the best build and player can be rock bottom on scoreboard because its not measuring who can kill what just who got to this first.

  1. the fundamental conflict that as you get better your stats will drop not go up. pros quickly and efficiently clear levels , its noobs that wrack up huge kill tallies.

  2. it never measures the costs. there are a plenty of times in a DT run when you shouldnt take a kill but to leave it for someone who needs to proc or refresh buffs. someone playing to the sb is just going to kill anything he can. possibly causing a wipe.

  3. maths. anyone with enough understanding of how variables intereact with probability can easily see how the variance run to run is so freaking huge that any info you get is basically random.

  4. its lower qulaity info than the games feedback already provides.

im sure im forgetting a bunch but that enough to make the point.

Same bs as in every single anti scoreboard thread ever…

If you can not see everyones stats, your own performance stats mean nothing.
If you can not see how you perform relative to others, you can not judge if you are ready for a higher difficulty.

Every person with a functioning brain should understand this.

I agree that pretty much everything mentyshould be added but somehow no one mentioned Modular Menu Buttons Modular Menu Buttons at Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Nexus - Mods and community

The ability to access the armoury from the character login screen so I don’t have to load into Morningstar, priceless.

The ability to do that and access Hadron from Psykanium so I can upgrade weapons or buy new ones without leaving and reloading it, priceless.
