This is the FAQ for the Darktide Community Event starting on 29th May.
Please ask any further questions below!

Enemy Kills:
Kills are simply all enemy kills made by players, multiplied by the difficulty played. Meaning that 1000 kills on the second difficulty will increase the counter by 1000 * 2 = 2000.

Monstrosities:
Monstrosity kills are kills of the Monstrosities (Beast of Nurgle, Deamonhost, Plague Ogryn, and Chaos Spawn) multiplied by the difficulty played. Meaning that 10 kills on the third difficulty (Malice) will increase the counter by 10 * 3 = 30.

Missions:
Player mission wins is a difficulty weighted value for individual player wins, not unique missions won. For example if a team of three players complete one mission on the fourth difficulty (Heresy) then the counter is increased by 3 * 4 = 12. Similarly, if a team of four players complete a mission on the fifth difficulty (Damnation), the counter is increased by 4 * 5 = 20. As a result, If we only have full teams running Damnation missions (then a total of 1 000 000 / 20 =) 50 000 unique mission wins would be enough to complete the challenge.

If the goals are reached, when can we expect to have the rewards?
Once the challenge is completed, the launcher and our Social Media will be updated with steps to follow in order to claim the items. Once the player claims the reward, the item can be found in their inventory.

Hi,

1 - Yes

2 - The cosmetics are claimable so far for a full month, so if someone buys the game during this time and wants to claim them they can.

3 - The map will be available to all players permanently once it’s unlocked!

4 - It’s available to all as it’s our first event and we wanted as many people to be able to enjoy the content as possible but also to give players a way to work towards a common goal.
As it’s our pilot event we may adapt it going forward to require participation.

Nope! You will still be able to claim the rewards once they are unlocked.

For sure!
Hopefully we don’t run into these large scale issues in the future while running these events again, but it would be good to have a plan B if we do.

I know we are in communication with AMD to try and solve the issues ASAP. Once we have more information on a fix or a workaround we will be sure to share it in the relevant threads!
