On PC we store the prologue status in your local save data so when switching PC the save get reset. The save only include your settings aswell as your prologue status so all your progress and inventory is safe.

This is not intended. It fell through the cracks when we did our rework of weaves. I will fix this immediately and it will be included in the next patch. Sorry about that.

Few things are constant among the Skaven, but their scheming and plotting is one of them. While our Heroes may have foiled Rasknitt, there’s plenty other vermin are eager to hatch their own devious plans. The farsqueaker, a verminous piece of Skryre engineering, allows some of these would-be masterminds to instantly communicate across vast distances with their networks of agents and spies.



Skaven Chronicles: Part 1 Is this thing on?

Do you hear me, master?

The cretinous cog-brained tinker-fool who claims to be master of this farsqueaker contraption insists you can hear me even if I cannot hear you. Something to do with power still bleeding from the failed Skittergate and the great-great mass of this mountain above our... Read more

The playerbase isn't as large as on steam and most people on xbox play on champion/legend difficulty. I'll let the community tell you if it's worth it or not for you. I would say the quslity of the game is at least on par though

The bot priority bug is on me. It is fixed internally but we haven't had the time to patch just yet because of the versus beta. Sorry about that

On consoles there is an option to play completely offline (no xbox live/psn+ requirement). The online data and offline data are separated. Whenever you play online we mirror all online progress in your save file so if you want replace/update your offline data with your current online data there is an option for that when choosing offline mode. This is mostly for players that have been playing online for a while but having their psn+/xbox live subscription lapse for whatever reason so they can continue playing at the same progress level if that make sense

Heroes and Pactsworn,
Hi my name is Joakim Setterberg and I’m the Design Director on Vermintide 2. In this devblog I want to talk about Versus’ upcoming Beta August Test - or BAT - coming August 21st. With the BAT we’re wrapping up most of the larger systems and features of the core game mode. With a few exceptions, our main focus up to release will be to work with surrounding systems and refining the content, to polish the Versus experience and, to quote the team, “fix the jank”.

First, a note on feedback. For every test we do we collect as much of your feedback as possible to find out what we can improve and fix. We sort it, rank it, and talk about what we want to accomplish for the next test. Sometimes there’s a straight-forward way to solve a problem or to implement a suggestion, but other times we’ll go in a slightly different direction, if we believe a problem lies elsewhere. That takes us to our two big features we’re introducing for th... Read more

Honestly, I'm more excited to see new weapons, new campaign and a new balance for careers. I think versus is a complete different animal, it's just not for my taste.

We haven't forgotten our core ;)

Hello! Yes, I can confirm that this issue has been fixed. We should not expect ridiculously large patch sizes at all in the future.

In general, we should expect that most hotfixes will be a few MB in size. Big patches can be up to around 4 to 5 GB but will be less than that on average. No more 25+ GB patches, for sure! fingers crossed

20 is correct, its also reduced by damage reduction
In normal CW, it also does 20 damage

The mini barrels from the boon cause this, they arent considered "friendly fire" so they will do 80 damage (without damage reduction) and 4 of them means you take 32...

Bots copy the Hero Power of the host, but their equipped gear's properties & traits does affect them. So if you have a bot with a sword with +10% power vs Chaos, the bot will copy the host's hero power and then get a power bonus when hitting chaos stuff.

Bots are also affected by the talents they have equipped normally.

Bogenhafen chests only have one item IIRC. They will always give you cosmetics but they should be pretty rare since we reworked the bogenhafen cosmetics to be obtainable from the store using shillings instead

Greetings Heroes and Pactsworn,
My name is Joakim, Design Director on Vermintide 2, here with a game update recap just in time for the summer.

As you all know, we started this year with a Closed and an Open Alpha Test for Versus, we celebrated the 6th Anniversary with a Quiet Drink and then wrapped up the Karak Azgaraz storyline with A Parting of the Waves - where Kruber’s team building excursion led to an encounter with a new type of Chaos Warrior.

A bit over a month ago, for Warhammer Skulls 2024, we released a big Chaos Wastes and Things™ update where we introduced Weekly Expeditions with new boons and rewards. Per popular demand, we added a loadout system to the game as well as the (even more requested) option to equip weapon illusions outside of Weaves. Both game modes saw some quality of life- and bug fixes, which increased their popularity and hopefully set you up f... Read more

It's just plug and play and the game will switch to whatever input method you choose to use instantly on both PC and Xbox by just using said input device. There are also 5 alternate button layouts aswell as a bunch of settings in the options menu
