About two weeks ago, we accidentally made some weapon illusions available in Lohner’s Emporium of Wonders that were not yet ready for publication. These illusions won’t be returning to Lohner’s Emporium at this point in time. While we appreciate that these illusions have long been in demand, we had to pull them from the Emporium for two main reasons:

1. All in-game items go through internal testing cycles to ensure a stable experience for our players. Skipping this process may result in unintended effects such as balance issues, instability, and a whole host of other things we would otherwise want to avoid.
   
   
2. We have other plans for these weapon illusions and how we’d make them available to you. In the past, we’ve mentioned our desire to redo some game modes so Vermintide II is the game you want it to be and we know it can be. We can’t go into what these plans are at this point in time as they are just that—plans. When the time is ri...

Comms on this will appear Monday.

There will be a QoL update upcoming. Previews of this will start February developer stream.

I love the idea of more fiddle toys (like Lohner's hourglass) for the keep! I'll pass this along!

Hey there! It will vary from PC to PC depending on your specs, but it's good to note that Vermintide is a very CPU-intensive game. I usually recommend:

• Settings that are affected by CPU (found by hovering over options in video) to low or off.
  
• Capping your frame rate
  
• Experimenting with DX11 or DX12 (different PCs prefer different ones).
  
• Playing in borderless fullscreen

Some people find performances increases by:

• Turning off the Steam Overlay
  
• Turning on AMD FidelityFX™ Super Resolution (FSR)

Hi all, just wanted to take a minute to wish you all a very merry Christmas and a happy year, most of all good health! These days people don't spend much time or thought on some personal words to their friends and family, they just copy and paste some random ♥♥♥♥ and send it on. So, after all we've been through together this year I want to thank you for your friendship and wish you a happy 2018! You are the best gymnastics group anyone could ask for. Best wishes, Susan

Happy Holidays everyone! <3

Happy Holidays!

Last I checked they do count all three modes -- Adventure, Weaves and Chaos Wastes.

I think this is a fair suggestion; I'll pass this on. Thank you!

Hello!

So this was made the way it is to err on the side of caution and avoid player toxicity and player-to-player abuse if someone decides to run something off-meta or just not having their tab menu set to public. However, we've seen various threads of feedback on multiple platforms seeking a public option and is something that has been passed onto the development team and will be taking a closer look at.

Patch 4.5.1
Stability and Localisation

• Improved localization.
  
• Fix crash when opening the playerlist while in a deed.
  
• Fixed crash when player hits a dead actor with a melee weapon.
  
• Fixed crash when always blocking boon is picked up or gets disabled while new weapon is loading in.
  
• Fix DLCs not being changed to installed when buying a DLC while in-game for PC.

Playerlist
While we orginially implemented privacy options based on reports of player toxicity, we heard your feedback and have added new privacy features to the in-game tab menu as well as improved existing ones to give players a greater choice of how to show and hide their builds.

• Added a public option for build view privacy setting.
  
• Made the privacy option asymmetric: now if you set your build to public oth...

Patch has now been corrected to the appropriately sized patch as expected, soz!

Originally posted by recurvedshedua: I am in the IT industry too Fatshark, in recent years sitting on security scanners and doing remediations. Many vulnerabilities show up in unmaintained or outdated third party packages that get installed with other software. And often times we have to reach out to the vendor which is simply unaware or doesn't care about that information.

I feel ye. This runtime is maintained by the OS in so much as it's a Microsoft runtime, akin to the C runtime libraries we also invoke installation of when the game is first run, or the redists are updated. Most users who keep their Win 10 OS up to date would have already had this runtime installed by proxy of having had OS updates. So it's not so much a third ... Read more

Not spyware.

This is the second time someone has rick rolled me about this on a community platform. :( This is what I deserve.

It's right now not "in the books", but I can certainly sit down and have a conversation about it to see if it is possible in the future. I know deeds right now are a big pain point for a lot of players, so I do feel invested in keeping this "in view", as it were (both as a CM and a player of the game).
