What's next for Darktide after the balance patch?

Hopefully bots for single/small group play. Randos are a nightmare.

You already have bots for more than 1 player, just make it private.

In my experience, randos are better than bots, at least until the latest patch where we got a whole lot of new players (playing on controllers ungh) but that’ll balance out as those who’s tick around get better at the game.

Bots have been redeeming themselves ever more as of late, they don’t run off, they don’t hog all the ammo, they don’t deploy med crates in front of med stations etc.
They get a bum rap.

Bots have been consistently better than your average rando since Vermintide 1. Was the only thing that kept me playing VT1 and 2 is I could play it solo or if my friends were around as a group of 2 or 3 without some [RANT REDACTED]

Edit: Which makes it all the more disappointing the only bot you get is the Standard McDefault vet. Another reason the game really needed actual characters instead of blank slates.

I am still waiting on solo mode.

Why do you want a new class already? Its too soon for that. Just add new weapons, and give Veteran their 3 keystones.

And you’re gonna keep waiting cus its not gonna happen.

Game desperately needs it. Spend more time Dropping out of “Oops, all [CLASS]” games or having teams that want to play Dora the Explora. Bots have been consistently better than your average rando in VT1 and 2.

How is almost a year too soon for a new class? I would love a new class as I have had all 4 classes lvl 30 since the beta and I would love more weapons as you mentioned on top of that.
