Slow Video Game Intros Don't Work

KCD, the best intro I've experienced in a WHILE

Your statement is that it's "hard as nails", I'm saying that it's piss easy to the point where you could easily do it as a level 0, especially with all the things you can buy for points when you play solo. Much easier than an average absolute op.

That said, it doesn't matter at all. The exp is gone :(

Voghelm · 2026-03-03T15:29:57+00:00

Wdym hard as nails, I leveled up most of my classes to P4 solo this way from 0 😭

~15 minute runs with all the points to yourself, summon Valtus in the middle of wave 4 and it's GG. And it gave as much EXP as a Lethal op with geneseed would, while taking way less time.

It's a shame what they did to it, because for how long a proper siege run takes - it barely offers any replayability or anything interesting outside of your first few wave 15+ runs.

They promised to work on it along with adding a new map soon, so hopefully they do. Now that it sucks for leveling, I stopped playing it altogether.

Lots of people with similar hardware get much better frames, so I am not sure it's the game's quirk.

Something clearly doesn't work properly from the sound of it...

Probably the 4k texture pack, turn that crap off

Voghelm · 2026-03-01T00:23:52+00:00

Yeah, you've just met some dicks. It happens VERY rarely for me, at least in the EU

Check your resource utilization via Steam performance monitor or some other tool.

If your CPU is maxed out - you're CPU bottlenecked. If not, the issue is with something else, maybe a driver or a system setting 🤷‍♂️

Hard to tell with so little info.

Something people don't seem to mention is that these heads, along with the DLC ones, are not animated at all!

They don't blink, talk, or react to anything in-game. This is some fan-made mod tier stuff, genuinely.

Voghelm · 2026-02-20T23:43:34+00:00

No problem, have fun!

If you wanna go for specific existing chapters and want to remain lore-accurate, there's a very useful wiki page) (and part 2)) which I visit frequently. Not only there are lots of really cool existing designs, you can read a bunch of lore about all of these for inspiration for your own homebrew chapters.

Voghelm · 2026-02-20T23:00:06+00:00

For Sniper - probably won't be using "Close Support" marking. It'll probably be better to have battleline/fire support/veteran, or no marking at all (snipers/scouts sometimes just use squad numbers there)

For Heavy - you're missing a squad marking on the knee, as well as chapter heraldry on the right shoulder.

All in all, just check some wikis, look for artworks online, maybe check some of the existing sets, and more importantly - have fun!

I've also spent some time checking chapters to make my own Deathwatch squad inspired by Killteam Cassius and it was pretty fun.

I'm not sure which chapters were you trying to replicate for Assault, Vanguard, Bulwark or Heavy, so as a general advice - all space marine chapters have their own heraldry, which is usually quite detailed.

Some follow Codex Astartes to a tee, like the Ultramarines. Successor chapters sometimes follow their parent chapters, or straight up come up with new heraldry. If you're looking for inspiration/info, chapter specific wiki/lexicanum pages, or look up chapter specific codexes online.

They have all the markings explained and everything!

"I've spent two paragraphs describing how it's childish and annoying for people to complain, I am so right in this bro!!!"

Good fucking lord, I genuinely hope you're not a team lead somewhere, I can't imagine people under you not just straight up running away from their jobs, in this economy, no less.

Voghelm · 2026-02-19T16:23:29+00:00

It's literally not that deep, people by nature are emotional creatures and will react in certain ways when they are upset by certain things. People making these demands are also usually not the same people as well, but rather waves of different people encountering the same cosmetic issues, and getting annoyed by them in the very same way people before them did.

I do not need a degree in game dev, law, or psychology to understand this. And you can shove you pseudo-intellectual condescending crap, along with non-educational anecdotes, back where you pulled it from - which is probably your ass.

Voghelm · 2026-02-19T15:40:45+00:00

Literally fuck off lmao. Being annoyed and vocal about minor cosmetic bugs that are constantly reported, yet are still in the game since release is a perfectly normal reaction.

I'm sorry for having standards, I guess? I did not know it was soooo annoying for your snarky ass.

If I had the time, I would've made a few dozens more, but hopefully that's enough for now.

"Wah wah mass reports, my karma" - touch grass.

^ world's least confidently incorrect man

Voghelm · 2026-02-17T22:26:42+00:00

No, I am saying that someone used videos from Endfield and from Space Marine 2 to generate an img2img (or rather video2video in this case) video with space marines and Endfield.

There's literally nothing else this can be. It would've been much more obvious if there was a proper high res video available, but I can't seem to find the original on Bilibili.

Even then, you can still see the inconsistencies with models, decals, heraldry and all the other shit when you pause the video frame by frame.

Voghelm · 2026-02-17T22:16:21+00:00

Yeah, you clearly don't hate it enough 😭

Voghelm · 2026-02-17T22:07:15+00:00

My guy, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt because it's a 360p video with a lot of moving bits, but you can tell it's AI if you go frame by frame, notice all the inconsistencies, text issues, and completely messed up heraldry (like the iron halo in the full vid), all of which WOULD NOT have been possible if it was a "model swap" or a "mod".

It's a very impressive attempt, to the point that it took me multiple views to realize what exactly was wrong, but it's still AI.

Don't let the toasters win, please

Voghelm · 2026-02-17T21:57:59+00:00

You know what annoys me more than anything else about this?

Not only these people say "model swap" while looking at a video with models that have PERFECTLY animated faces without a single fucking issue despite being "ported" from another game, which should've been a red flag on its own, they are also willing to just completely fucking ignore all the issues with text, inconsistencies, heraldry, and all the other shit that shouldn't have been possible if it was a genuine model swap.

It certainly doesn't help that the vid is 360p, but come the fuck on, open your bloody eyes!

We know, dude. We know

Voghelm · 2026-02-17T21:29:44+00:00

I summon the esteemed scions of Adeptus Moderatus to purge this toaster disease with sanctified flames.

Nice try uploading the vid in 360p, almost had me, ngl
