Playing with randoms

[Wilku21]

Is this game enjoyable while playing with randoms?

Yes. You will meet the occasional bad apple, but most people are great. You tend to have the worst experience at the lower difficulties because the noobs freak out over small things. I'd advise trying to get to legend difficulty as quickly as you feel comfortable because the players there are more skilled and a lot more chill.

So many players too heavy to be carried in legend, I don't know if it's a good advise.

If "enjoyable" is about performance, holydays and week-end are really bad moment to meet the player.

But I don't say that good players in Vermintide 2 are only hardcore gamers. To be honest, after hours and hours this game is about combo management (heroes and monsters) and positioning in the map. And the community is full of guides and video about that, so even a casu with a well conected brain can be "enjoyable".

Most important it's like you say, about randoms...

If you can carry the game-yes. M ostly,people are below average and they complete level only because there was such person to carry them.

[NoFuFu]

My advice is watch out in non-linear o semi-non-linear maps because people could potentialy split, spliting in this game is almost guaranteed game over so becareful. In those situations try to follow instead of going alone.

the game is perhaps more fun when playing with randoms, since you dont know their skill level and they might play very different than you. its also a bit fun to play with below average players

Bad hosts are the bigger problem, fun stops when the host quits

from my experience with random player, their attitude depend on their Class,

Bardin Slayer 80% are quitter, ♥♥♥♥ talker and egocentric. love to quit when died.

Kerli whatever job : mostly fresh player from other difficulty, only 50% toxic

other class is so so, most of them just tend to be silent.

I'd give it a 90%, ironbreaker bardin's tho tend to stay till the end, Kerillians are often extremely unaware of friendly fire and specially way stalkers tend to blame you for "been in the way", specially on the way stalker.

Playing with randoms works, but it helps to recognize when a game is worth leaving rather than making a fuss. Have had a lot of Ironbreakers lately who are essentially carried by his defensive ability, but they don't contribute much when the pace picks up. Also, a lot of the dwarves with throwing axes will hit you repeatedly.

No. I've met so many griefers. It's friends only or bots for me.

Agree but don't try to get to legends as soon as possible
legend is hard, you need experience and good equipment and know about strategies and how to play each character and with each character and books locations

just play normally and try to learn

For the most part - no. But it's good way to find decent friends & hook up with them later in premade groups.

[Obed Marsh]

Most of the time randoms are alright.
Lately, for some reason, I've joined way too many people just speedrunning and ignoring all pick up items.

play with randoms is the best, it's so funny
