I’m going to echo what I stated over on Steam:
We’ve not discussed in any detail how the new 40K band of misfits will work together. I just want to say that generally a lot of people are making pure assumptions based on our previous game(s) that may not come to light.
I suggest holding out for future dev blogs, showcases and announcements for specifics. This will come when we’re incredibly confident in the system or feature in question. We just want to avoid as much as possible saying how a system will work before it’s locked down.
It’s helpful and we encourage people to speculate and talk about what people want to see from the characters and their supporting systems, but framing something as being set in stone is too early, I think, at least until we’ve spoken more about it.
Some of these threads are getting a bit weird honestly. The roster of heroes hasn’t been talked about, nor the systems that will support them. It’s fair to look at Vermintide and speculate what we might be up to with the roster in Darktide. We do appreciate all the feedback on the trailers and what they might mean for the game, but this is a new game, it might not work the same as previous games in our back catalogue.
By all means let us know what you like, don’t like, or want to see from the heroes in DT, but avoid considering anything being said right now by anyone as absolute, until we lift the lid further on the player characters and the systems that compliment them.
