ABOUT Official Vermintide Public Test

Vermintide Public Test Group

As part of our ongoing effort to continue expanding & improving Vermintide, we'd like to invite you to participate in our Public Test enviroment!


Why are we doing this?
1. We need your feedback.
Without our community and our players we would not be where we are today. This is your game as much as it is ours, and we want to include you in the future of it.

2. There are some things we just can't test alone.
We are not a massive studio with unlimited resources. We're a small, independent developer that loves making fantastic games. Despite having our own in-house Quality Assurance team and working with external testing partners, it is impossible for us to cover everything without your help.


If you'd like to opt in to the latest Public Test version, please follow these steps:
To opt in:
1. Right-click Vermintide in your Steam Library
2. Click on Properties
3. Click on Betas
4. In the drop-down menu, select the branch named "publictest"
5. Download and play!


Thank you for helping make Vermintide even better!

- Significant pathing problems with the Rats on Engines of War. After the finale, in the lane where you leave the camp there were maybe 20 rats that walked right past us into the event. The ignored us. We could hit them, and kill them. I've never seen that behavior before.

- Rats are standing off at a much further distance than before when trying to encircle you. Sometimes so far that the simply do not move. This happened many times.

- I experienced loss of 3rd page shrine progress (trait value rerolling) on my Empire Solider 2H Hammer, and my dwarf 1H and 2H hammers to the tune of ~120 orange scrap. It just reset the values to the original values. I only played in between, I did not restart the program. I have restarted since and the current rerolls seem to stick.

Otherwise it looks good!

All of this is reported from Cataclysm games only.

- There are invisible rats that randomly appeared on Black Powder and Engines of War (during the barrel event)

- I crashed on entering a game the very first time I attempted to after downloading the 1.1.5

- Globe Rats are Nutzo now! They instantly appear and instantly globe you down with nearly 100% accuracy. With the team I played with someone was ALWAYS hit. There was no way to even, lots of short range throws.

- Engines of War Finale now has special rats walking through the cellar door to devastating effect (i.e. Globe rat walks in and bombs the whole place). Pretty much insta wipe if the team does not have the trinket on a few people.

We are waiting for a new patch:)

Did your testing early on after launch. You know the period when you installed the test 8.9GB, all earned gear gone, reinstalled Public account--> re-download 24GB, all reset to :zero: again, gear gone again did that 3 times. In an effort to better this game.

I am happy test new builds but not at the expense of previous assorted gear.
