Hey Everyone, Hotfix #53 (1.5.11) is live now on Steam and it will shortly follow on our other platforms. You can read the patch notes below! This is only a smaller update before we release Grim Protocols next week. Bug fixes and tweaks will be wrapped into that larger patch next week.
QoL updates Tertium Logo Animation and Text Update: In this update we’ve added some small changes to transitional screens in Darktide, which will appear while you are loading.
  • The animated spinning Tertium logo is now present in more places, such as after a mission.
  • Text has been added to indicate on what step the game process is currently at.
Dev Note: The intent with this addition is to make it more transparent to players what happens during these transitions, and give more clarity to troubleshooting in case players run... Read more

+1 on this, it's super annoying. Even just having to reset your options sucks each time.

Sorry about that. It's fixed now

Just to throw this in, on PS5, everytime you get to the end of a mission the game crashes. Just as you stand in the circle, it saves your stuff but you lose all your preset options. It's annoying as hell!

This was a backend issue that occured during friday evening and unfortunately we didn't catch it until today. It has been resolved now. Sorry for the inconvenience

Hey Everyone,  

A couple of weeks ago, we released an Introduction to Havoc dev blog. Similar to when we released the Introduction to Itemization dev blog over the summer, we’ve received a lot of comments and questions. 

For Itemization, we answered these in the form of a couple of Q&A posts, and we thought it would be a great format to use for discussing Havoc, as well.

Nah, we added it a while back when we deprecated the old PC UI. It didn't quite make sense to maintain two seperate UI:s so we took the time to add a bunch of quality of life changes for the new UI to make the transition worth it for veteran players. This was one of those QoL features

There is a little cogwheel next to your weapon in the inventory that allows you to customize your equipment

That "thing" is indeed gone after restart of the game. But still shifts whole UI.

It's a mod error but the modder is on it apparently

There is already an option for that in the versus options tab

After a minute or two, the “Hold LB to Host” changed to “Hold LB To Start Game”, and then a “Are you sure you want to start without a full group” msg, and once selecting “Yes”, I was loaded into the start of the mission with bots!

Praise be to the Emperor, and this janky unintuitive system can Sugmar Dick

Quick play will search for games with several easing rotation on the rules that in total is 30s IIRC. If you just do custom game and make it private you will get the choice to start directly

New In-Game Event: The Grandfather’s Gifts The Lord of Decay has blessed his most beloved followers with hideous tentacles. So imbued are they with his foul pestilence that they explode when shot.

Dispatch them at close quarters to avoid this.

Complete missions featuring the blessed enemies to progress and collect rewards. This condition will only be available during the event and it will appear on both the Standard and Auric mission terminals. Look out for missions with the “Mutated Horrors” condition.

This event will start on Thursday, November 7, 2024. The rewards will be Ordo dockets, Plasteel and Diamantine. Those who complete the last tier of the event will receive a new Portrait Frame. (Dev Note: Be aware the frame might not show up immediately in players’ inventories after receiving the notification. Players may need... Read more

that makes sense. sadly the ui tweaks mod, at least last time i checked, required the old menu to function.

tbf its crazy you guys still do anything at all with vt2, but i love that you do, its such a crazy good game. i hope someone at fatshark bonk their head and get stuck with an obsessive thought to compete with deeprock galactic and just go wild on the vt2 updates.

the chaos wastes update may be one of the greatest updates to a game ever, just out of nowhere "here, have this totally new gamemode on our old game".

Thanks!
There is plenty more to come :D

If I have the time I'll try to fix the Old UI but I have to prioritize my tasks so it probably won't be high on the list unfortunately
