No sign of a Hellgun?

[Digital Fulcrum]

The recon rifles are pretty close, but man I would love to have the large backpack, rapid rifle laser rifle like what the Dreg Gunners use. I would absolutely love to see that in this game for the Vet Class.

rapid fire is good but did you consider that the ogryn brought a somewhat sharpened piece of metal? ... and does less damage with it than a battery-sword with a button on it.

sh*tposting aside,
not to piss on the idea to bring more different weapons (which as far as i remember, never was bad (till now)), i´d prefer it to remove at least 30-40 of all weapons from pool to increase my chance to actually get what i want, simply due to how the system works.

that said, a heavy-gunner veteran subclass that relys on more firepower sounds fun.

As i know the hellgun comes with a powerpack on the back of the trooper and fires extremely bright and powerfull single shots. That would be awsome

[NoSoupy]

that would be super dope

Indeed let's make the game's best class even better than all the others.

I'd rather they at least bring over Vermintide 2's crafting system and build on/improve that (also toss in an attachment system so we can better customize our weapons w/ optics, lights, stocks, grips, etc. Some of the guns already have rails, anyway).

The RNG shop is dumb and should be done away with.

Or they can also add more stuff for the other classes.

Zealot, for example, can get a canon Eviscerator-Flamer combi-weapon (see: Redeemer). They could also buff the Force Sword (IMHO, it should feel more powerful than the Power Sword, anyway...maybe have it always be charged, and the charge up action just increases the damage for single-target enemies).
Dunno about Ogryns much...belt-fed Heavy Bolter? Heavy Flamer? Multi-laser? belt-fed Autocannon? All of those?

They just need to be carry Vets on their shoulders, height LOS is OP

Seeing as fatshark has NEVER had a balanced line up, why are you expecting this one to be somehow different.

Veteran is LITERALLY "40K Guy", if you're expecting another class to be better you're either unfamiliar with the dev or unfamiliar with the setting, or both.

Would love to see melta weapons

[tools guy-kun]

not just that, but the pump action shotgun the shotgunners tend to use.

there's something about the punch of a pump action that feels truly thrilling.

yes let's talk about adding new stuff when we have a broken husk of a game that might not even survive it's botched C-section of a birth

maybe get the stillborn to frackin' breathe before we start talking about pre-school and college

Well, it's not like people here can do anything to fix the mess that Darktide presently is. Let them dream of a brighter future a bit, there's no harm in it.

it's too dark in most rooms to see the future anyway, without going into config and turning off shadows completely

even with the mess of a state the game is currently in, is it really too much for you to simply let others engage in a conversation that could be fun instead of reminding everyone what they already know?

lol Fatshark could embrace the silly side of 40k more, and, yeah, allow stuff like that.
Maybe include silly stuff like combo attacks: Ogryn swings the Zealot around, while the Zealot is revving their Eviscerator.
Or the Ogryn carrying the Psyker like a pigskin/American handegg egg, pushing aside enemies while the Psyker shoots out lightning or warp fire.
