Warhammer: Vermintide 2 Dev Tracker

This should be fixed now @cspowers419 / @Buwys

Hi, I can shed some light on this.

The channels for beta communication were as follows, as far as I know:

OFFICIAL:

1. Fatshark forum
2. Fatshark public discord
3. Fatshark focus group discord
4. In-game survey

UNOFFICIAL:*

1. Squirrel Squad (open beta discussion only)
2. Blood Moon Inn (open and closed beta discussion, where proof of beta invite/Steam had to be shown to Discord moderation team—this was proposed by the BMI staff)
3. Reddit (open beta discussion only)

*I think there was also something in Red Moon Inn that had dev blessings as well, but am not sure since I’m not in that one. I’m not sure about other Verm servers.

The devs hang out in these third party servers, but are usually pretty quiet overall and seem to prefer to sit and absorb feedback (sans reddit, where they pop in from time to time)

If I’m not mistaken, the original 2 heros were from Vermintide 1 that got carried over.

huh? I call out fatshark just as much as anyone else. I spent the first week of beta complaining about the stagger and dodge changes, even going so far as saying I will not be playing if it goes live as it was. I’ve openly stated multiple times that the weaves do not interest me and I’m not excited for them.

I’ve spent the last 9 months trying to get the night maps added. As well as the games optimization fixed, to which many other people were/are having issues. Dropping to 20 FPS on hordes and so on. I definitely wasn’t suck...

I wouldn’t call that an article, more of a blog post that reeks of self advertising. You can taste the salt through the screen, even though he tries his hardest to appear neutral while taking things out of context. Notice how he constantly has to say that there’s technically nothing wrong with “insert thing he’s complaining about”. Or point out that he doesn’t have any issues with X, while still trying to highlight it as an issue? I love how he goes on to argue with SneakyPanda in the comments.

Welcome back, Revy. It’s been a while. I hope you’re well.

I just want to chip in a little, but I won’t go in to it too much.

I don’t know of any developer who doesn’t have a crew of players they work with at a closer level than the wider community. It’s pretty normal to have focus groups during the production of any product - be it a game or a new flavour of soup (or anything in between).

I’m not saying we got the comms balance during the WoM Beta right, far form it, but as many noted, it was the most communicative beta we have had to date, and we will continue to work to improve further on the communication pathways in future tests.

We have no information to share on console WoM at this time.

Could you elaborate on your issue please? Platform, etc.?

Is this a consistent issue for you @STAAR, or an unlucky one-off?

I’ve already been all over with the army, not to places of my choosing. But Jamaica was really nice, at least the tourist area where we had time off. I guess if I had one place to pick, probably Japan so I can go full weeb. I don’t like the heat though, so it would have to be in winter.

Space smells of steak. It’s my nirvana.

It’s Friday already? Waduhek?!

Since you’re limiting it to the real world, I think it’s gotta be Iceland for me (else I’d opt for the Moon, or the ISS. Somewhere in space, maaan).

Iceland.

• aurora borealis
• epic landscapes
  • volcanoes
  • caves
  • waterfalls
  • mountains
  • trails
  • lakes
  • glaciers
  • springs
  • etc
• beers

I really want to explore the quieter parts of Scotland. There’s something magical about the place. I’d like to do the North Coast 500

which is a a driven scenic route around the north coast, covering 516 miles!

Where in the (real) world do you want to visit next?
