To tempter expectations, old VO wont be altered, but there will be some... interesting new dialogue lines :)

I appreciate that, and your time responding, but its not a great feeling booting into the keep to see 'rewards available' and getting nothing tangible.

I think my main issue is that there's nothing in game that acknowledges that its intentional and the reason for it. So you either just assume its bugged or you have to find out from the Internet. A one time pop up on the start menu or something, with a brief explanation would be ideal. Obviously not sure how viable that is but I really dislike having to go outside of a game for information about the game.

Aside from that I absolutely love this game.

Absolutely with you on that. We had a "news ticker" up for a time, but they annoy people if they stay up for too long. We'd loved to have had a notice in-game more permanently but it would require patching, and the patch in the pipeline solves this issue.

THE IDEA THAT MARKUS KRUBER (ALL-WEATHER MERCENARY, POACHER AND OCCASIONAL KNIGHT) HAS LINKS TO BRETONNIA HAS TAKEN PLENTY OF FOLK BY SURPRISE. NOT LEAST KRUBER HIMSELF, WHO KEEPS MUTTERING INTO HIS TANKARD SOMETHING FIERCE. FORTUNATELY, LOHNER’S DONE A BIT OF DIGGING, AND RECKONS HE’S GOT A HANDLE ON THE MATTER.

"So Kruber’s a Grail Knight, is he now? Can’t say I’m surprised. Well, a little bit surprised, but you don’t last long in my trade if you go around raising eyebrows at the slightest thing. Don’t worry. Let Uncle Franz set you straight.

Truth is, there’s a lot more trading of bloodlines back and forth across the border than you migh...

Yeah but in the meantime your daily quests give you nothing (because they're meant to now give shillings, which we don't have) weekly quests should give you the cosmetic reward crate but they don't show up half the time in the book and just says like 100000000hours until refresh

They do give shillings, you just don't have the shillings in the UI yet, nor can spend them.

If I had to make a guess, I think Kruber isn't really a "proper" grail knight to justify him not being as overpowered as one in-game. He could be like a grail pilgrim, only instead of stalking some unfortunate grail knight everywhere for scraps of their glory and discarded equipment like some fanatical bottom-feeder, Kruber was somewhere in Bretonnia when he came across the jackpot: a lone, freshly-killed grail knight surrounded by dead foes and with all their gear relatively intact.

Feeling it a tremendous waste to let all the poor bastard's shiny kit go to waste, Kruber decides to take up the dead knight's arms and armour, intending to sell them for a good amount of crowns when he returns to Empire lands. Something along the way, a woman's voice in his head convinced him to wear the pilfered gear to battle, however, and as time passed, Kruber's new kit begins to influence his body and mind, making him stronger, bigger, faster, and more becoming of a chivalric knight of t...

I feel like huge blocks of shitpost text might eventually annoy some people, though? Thank you, I'm glad it was a good read!

A good Wall of sh*tpost Text is what this sub thrives on honestly. I come for the feedback and stay for the memes, the art, the stories. This one was great.

RIP Ron.

We can always speak with EAC about these things. As I understand it some RGB drivers or hooks can be used nefariously.

Theyre abandoning VT2 and moving on to something else and in the mean time milking VT2 till they drain it to fund the third game or another IP. It was obvious that we wouldnt be getting any major updates after the winds of magic failure and the harsh community reaponse. Warhmmer community, both 40k and fantasy, are sadly very hard to please and get hyper agressive when theyre not content with what they get.

Dawn of war devs legit dropped the ip and ran away after non stop death threats, cyber bullying and lynching by the community, who didnt like dawn of war 3 and didnt give a chance to devs to fix it. Same kinda happened with VT2. Were lucky if they work on VT3 and not milk VT2 and abandon the IP for good tbh.

We're still very much on board the V2 boat here with big things planned, one announced and some unannounced.

Will pass it on

It does, I think they dropped it from VT2 to just shave down the title's length as it was a bit silly.

This is it yep, the name was getting preeetty long. We're still sadly* in the End Times.

*as in 'this ends badly' rather than a critique of AoS. I remain staunchly impartial on that. You'll never know.

The idea with these is they don't impact gameplay, but add a flavour variable to the maps you run. dusk or rain shouldn't obscure your vision but just set a new tone for a map, or part of.

Comment

I think so, once we do a press release. Hit me up if that doesn’t happen.

Comment

Odds are slim in the near or mid term, but it might be something changed far in the future once we’ve seen how this release has gone. I wouldn’t expect it to change, but it may be future careers are handled differently. This is a new arena for us, we’ll adjust our future based on the upcoming present.

Hey Hedge! Off topic for this thread, but do you have any idea if we'll see a double XP weekend again anytime soon? I've gotten some new friends into the game thanks to the COVID situation and that would really help players like them who are picking up the game for the first time during the lockdown.

I'll speak with the powers, maybe we can schedule one for Season 3 :)

Because the whole reason they introduced payed cosmetics was so they could create content like this for free right? Also locking content like this behind money in any game is bad, but in a game that is as stagnant and stale as vermintide is honestly just a poor move.

What we're trying to avoid is shipping paid content that splits players (see WOM). Choosing to use the Grail Knight doesn't restrict you from any lobbies or others from your lobby (unless they happen to be playing the Knight as well, as it works with Vanilla careers as well). These kinds of DLC will hopefully allow us to continue providing free content that would otherwise split the player base if paid for.

The current plan is for a BBB during S3. No concrete info on that yet.

Correct, at least at the time of print. We have talked about it, and done some surveying on the idea of careers for in-game coin as a side option to paying real money, but we got feedback it muddies the waters we wanted to avoid muddying - putting a Real World price on shillings.
