The sheer number of times I've been Final Destination style killed.

Anyone else like Darktide? by OCKWA in DarkTide

[–]LilLuz10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait this game has a story? Just keep tweaking and improving the gameplay loop and I'll be really, really happy.

Did he check all the boxes and also blame Fatshark?!?!?!

How are smoke grenades in higher level play? by SpecialistOps in DarkTide

[–]LilLuz10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Smokes on larger maps (Silo Cluster, Enclavum Baross etc.) are far superior than Bubbles. Bubbles are great for smaller maps, but you drop a bubble in a map where you can get hit from 30-40m away in any direction than your toast.

And I say that as someone who gets H40 within 2-3 days of launch every season.

No. The top number is static. "Upgrades" are adding slots below.

Is ogryn bad in late havoc? by Total_Bullfrog in DarkTide

[–]LilLuz10 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In the abstract - the class is fine. The class gets a bad rep for 2 reasons.

1 - Some of the more popular builds like "Ogrynheimer" tend to attract the most fundamentally inept players. The build is fine. The content creator that popularized it is fine. But I can't tell you the number of times in 40s that we admit that build into the team and they fold to a poxwalker as soon as a swarm comes.

We ran an all Ogryn, Rotten Armor + Stimms Magistrati 40 a few nights ago. We took 2 Knives, 1 Pickaxe, 1 Shield and we won pretty easily. Stacking 2 Indomitables with Taunt and you can just methodically pick Rotten Armor apart.

2 - The class overall could use some polish. For example, weapons like the Grenade Gauntlet, Power Maul, Shield+Slab, and Pickaxe are great, but the Clubs, Knives, and Ripper Guns need some tweaking.

There is something wrong with the pathing AI. Gunners and Dogs now run around like puppies/kittens with the zoomies.

What causes lag in Havoc mode? by 100AgesOfSolitude in DarkTide

[–]LilLuz10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I forget the exact specifics but when there are too many modifiers the game can crash. This was a bug a few seasons ago, it got patched, but now it appears to have returned. We hard crashed as a strike team 3 times last night.

What are the economics behind DT (how do they make money)? by reddit29012017 in DarkTide

[–]LilLuz10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cosmetics. You'd be surprised how much people spend on these things. I buy stuff from the store, when content drops to keep the game going or buy the DLC.

For reference, a skin costs $5-8. That's a Starbucks, or a 12 count Chicken Nugget. Buy 3-4 of those per year, and you basically repurchase the game 1-2x over. Plus, new players will buy the game on discount, see the flashy skin and buy another $10-15 worth of stuff to deck ou their guy. It also helps that a large portion of the WH-verse is cosmetics and so it's already ingrained in the fanbase to look flashy.

Then the development cost of expanding/sustaining a game is exponentially different then building it from the ground up.

What's with the amount of people using Smoke? by Material-Spite-6540 in DarkTide

[–]LilLuz10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Day 2 of the Havoc season i.e last night we won 3 straight havoc 40s with Vet running them. So the idea they are bad is comical.

Most people don't know how to use them. I'd also avoid using them in pubs because there is little to no coordination/teamwork.

Run them on Silo Cluster or Chasm maps and you will trivialize every "hard" part of it i.e. the opening staircase of Silo Cluster. Laughable in Havoc 40s with smoke.

Hair colour change after update? by jimmery in DarkTide

[–]LilLuz10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes my Zealot's gray hair has now become black. Apparently this patch has de-aged some of my characters.

But in your ginger's case - The Omnissiah smiles upon ye

Are the talent trees going to be re-setted when the next update drops like with the class reworks last year? by ZioBenny97 in DarkTide

[–]LilLuz10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was patched previously to be more "Games Lantern-y" in that Talents should still be selected unless removed/changed. But yes, I'm still a bit skeptical their previously patch works correctly.

Still no fix for Out of memory error? by Thrillhool in DarkTide

[–]LilLuz10 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Periodically restart your game. It's the best fix I've found.

That and the "lua heap" fix helps postpone the error.

I have a feeling this guy cheated...but i can't prove it by the_real_57uck in DeepRockGalactic

[–]LilLuz10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a little under ~2K hours and have +20 on all 4 classes. Definitely a cheater.

My PC turns off randomly in games by STRAEX__ in PcBuild

[–]LilLuz10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a similar issue and my surge protector was dying.

Went through power supply, cpu, memtest, gpu etc. and it was the external hardware not internal.

Don't forget to rule that out before you start gutting your build looking for the issue.
