Warhammer 40K Space Marine 2 Is Getting A Major Update! Nerf Fears and That Recent Patch...

all right so here we go yes it's time for your daily dose of all things Warhammer 40K Space Marine 2 news and updates and yes we've got a new patch that just went live but what in the world is the deal there's no patch note so the dev team did clarify what the patch was intended for and we've got more news about an upcoming major patch that's how they describe it plus the community is already talking about Nerfs that this one class seems to be far too op but this is also stirring up fears of a potential hell diver situation uh stirring up here so we got to talk about that plus if you're playing bull workk you're going to want to definitely pay attention because I've got some invaluable tips for you here and more on that pairing system and has also taken a while for players to figure this one thing out that you have to know and yes I'm going over your top comments later in the video but we got to see what the devs have been up to here so check it out it says a small hot fix has been pushed on PC this is a minor patch to help alleviate server load on this platform another hot fix with some stability improvements is planned for this week on both PC and console so they're going to be rolling out those server stability improvements as we go so that is good news to he curious to see how this launch day goes as well but this also raised some concerns hey you know where's the patch notes can you guys actually start doing this this is the second time you've dropped a patch with zero documentation for users so it would be really nice if there were actual proper patch notes went alongside the patch where you can just expand it and read it for yourself I think that they should definitely make that change but they did explain this why there was no change log it has minor SSL change to shrink the amount of calls to back in to minimize additional load on the backend during launch smiley face but hey it would have been nice for that to be included with patch notes that simple line similar something similar that would be awesome now someone also discovered that this patch might have also adjusted this right here dangan patch fix CPU heat issue this was a big uh you know concern for a lot of PC players so it seems like uh this has cooled down those temps on PC and there's several replies that are saying the same thing but yeah what about this major patch that is coming up here so it has been confirmed right here and that is going to be dropping in September no firm release date on that but we will be getting some sort of significant major patch now this is going to go beyond just connectivity issues of course uh we'll see if it adjusts any balance issues that the game might have but uh yeah the worst fear is they get into nerfing the hell out of stuff so yeah I'll keep you guys in the know about that one and more on that in just a moment by the way we'll talk about that and this was also suggested to the dev team it says please gameplay is great skip the pregame map intro and make a better Lobby system please and the response was thanks for the feedback I'll transfer that ASAP so you guys are being heard they are listening to this but you know how are you guys feeling about the lobby system system currently do you think it needs to be improved and what do you think would need to be improved for that one sound off in the comments down below and you know what I did go ahead and take a peek as to what is going on with the branches where they're doing updates privately so this is interesting they did do some testing on the prod steam features and uh the pros account stuff so you're probably wondering what in the world is the pros account so you probably seen that in the lower right screen it is not required of course and someone did ask us out here what in the world is the pros account by the way what is the benefit to even having it at all and it is this going to try to explain it the pros account thing is to get the twitch drops to get added to your account you also get some Link Up Rewards as well it's the same system they use for World War Z that orc speed freak game and some others the rewards are mostly cosmetic and game currency they also offer like info news about the game and when there is a new twitch drop event and the best thing in my opinion is how you save transfer to other systems that's the big one right there the biggest benefit of having your Pros account linked for sure but if there's any upcoming special events revolving you know around like upcoming twitch drops that sort of thing you're definitely going to want to have your Pros account connected for sure all right so we got to talk about this thread right here which ultimately leads us into the discussions about yes Nerfs check it out it says is there any counterplay to grapple hook or is it literally just a stun and free kill can it be parried or rolled at all yeah some people are already saying this needs to be nerfed ASAP someone else expanded gave an idea Hard One to Nerf too much and you make it useless maybe do something like make the kick Parable if you miss the par functions exactly as it does now if you hit it counter stuns so that you both recover at the same time and get a heads up fight yeah so do you think there needs to be some sort of level of pairing and being able to get out of being you know grappled to death it's one of the things I have noticed that seems to be very very op for Vanguard but then again from the vanguard's perspective it is a hell of a time it's a lot of fun to actually be able to pull that off and initiate it and it would be frustrating to be parried so yeah I do get like both sides of the argument I still think there needs to be some way to defend against this but needs to be you know some sort of level of major skill involved to be able to counter that move now this also let us into yes this request right here we don't want this becoming a hell divers 2 situation please saber interactive For the Love of the emperor do not go to the hell divers 2 route and start nerfing popular weapons for balance the Lost fusil is an amazing weapon for those unaware hell divers 2 had an extremely successful launch because the game fulfilled the power fantasy of what it feels to be a Caden Guardsman sure you died a lot especially sensor's friendly fire but the weapons were awesome and AER strikes were awesome and killing bugs and Bots had never felt so good for some weird reason though Arrowhead decided that popular weapons broke the game's meta and would routinely Nerf them what's the big deal you asked them well the big deal is that the players were using the popular weapons because the rest of the weapons sucked but instead of buffing the bad weapons they would Nerf the good ones to be bad and then they buff the enemies because what in the hell it's been a [ __ ] show all the way around that makes absolutely no sense and it's one of the major reasons why hell divers 2 went from a beloved video game to having a 60-day we got to fix this game road map I've been loving the sniper class simply because of how effective the Lost fusel is it makes me feel like I'm actually making a difference in the battle instead of shooting a BB gun at a freight train and I totally get the concerns here however someone did have quite the counterargument to this here it is it says the major difference that you're completely overlooking is that the L fusil is available to only one class and for PVE content you can't run duplicate passes this isn't a case of X weapon is really strong so everyone runs it and snipers couldn't even be considered meta outside of the two highest difficulties reverse damage is important to deal with centuries reliably from a PVE perspective the game is remarkably well balanced in terms of classes with the exception of assault which is hot garbage ooh assault getting some attack there so maybe they need to buff the assault as well so yeah how are you guys feeling about the last fusel sound off in the comments down below but I've also got some major bull workk advice if you guys are Ming the bull workk you got to check this out right here it says another tip for Bull Work I found out last night that you can drop your banner which gives you full contested Health if you set it up where an enemy is in execution State drop your banner on him execute and voila you have full HP with without any stems so you can let your teammates get all the stems in a mission super late game level 23 with a perk this will also work for teammates too that is a hell of a strategy seems like every team on those higher difficulties has to have one Bull workk on the team no matter what and initiate this sort of system and then you could see how you can really start to up your survivability in those harder difficulties so give it a try and you know team Synergy is extremely important in this one for sure but some players are really struggling with the Parry system check it out it says Parry alerts are discrepant in their timings that causes confusion making them feel clunky now there's some advice here so stick with me and I don't mean the difference between a perfect parry and not a perfect Parry but the fact if you get a blue marker on a minor enemy it's an auto success but if you get this blue marker on a major enemy it's more like a warning sometimes hitting the Parry button when you see the blue symbol just leaves you open to attack because the real strike is directly after the symbol appears it presents the players with two different results with the same alert and in the case of tyranids it's especially hard with all the noise on the screen to keep track of this issue is compounded by the fact in many other games the timing is based on when you see the alert symbol or whatever it may be so there's existing expectation so yeah it definitely can feel a little bit strange going from paing smaller enemies to those bigger enemies and then you also have to remember in the mix is this system right here just reminder about the types of defense for my brother struggling with the Parry if you're like me and jump straight for the biggest stat increase but then wondered why you suddenly sucked at paing this is for you I hope you all all are enjoying the game brothers yeah we got fencing increases the perfect Parry window block no perfect Parry window balance moderate perfect Parry window so yeah that really is super important they definitely do do feel very different someone also noted this so important to know this playing as bull workk I spent hours feeling underpowered just because I was using a block style weapon so it can really mess up your play style and your class if you actually go through and choose the wrong upgrade path for your weapon it can absolutely change the entire system for you so yeah it's really important to take some time out and try to learn that system but then again I think having the different pairing Windows between the smaller enemies and the major enemies also is confusing people and compounding the problem so I think they're going to have to fine-tune stuff in the future yeah then again I know a lot of you are still concerned hey don't make the game too easy that is also another big worry I get that now Space Marine 2 already has cheaters it just got released hopefully the anti-che gets these dung noodles banned from the multiplayer and go just show this guy that's going batshit crazy with the ades and yeah you know I haven't experienced that myself just yet but it seems like they have you know a pretty decent anti-che system in the game so far from what I am seeing but uh some people are concerned about this because PVP is so well loved and it would really suck if it just you know was overwhelmed with cheaters which I just I don't think that's going to happen it's most likely like a bigger concern on PC of course but I'll keep you guys in the know if there's any updates about that now also we have this right here I cannot remember a AAA game that had Cosmetics that looked this good at launch let alone ones that are free and earnable in game it honestly feels like a nostalgic blast to the past I seriously have not felt this rewarded for grinding out a game since reach I couldn't agree more I had to highlight this positive note right here 1,200 up votes here's hoping in future updates we get more Cosmetics that fit other Legions My Space Wolves need Furs yes I would love to see Space Wolves actually was watching that uh you know that interview with Henry caval and they actually ended up talking about Space Wolves there was an image that popped up for that and I'm like damn yeah we need like more fur options that would be badass that would definitely be my style I think but currently I just love the look of my Space Marine already and that's something that I'm just loving with the game is anytime I see new armor unlock you know on the screen I get so excited to head back to the battle bars and check it out all right so yes here's this took me way too long to figure out that yes you can destroy crates for supplies so if you did not know this let me rewind it's quite simple you can bash them open or just roll into it and you can find some extremely important equipment there including ammo extra armor that sort of thing do not neglect checking that out and there's some people that feel like there is a feature entirely missing from the game and it is the Codex since I think the dev's messed up here imagine how many more people they could get interested in the tabletop and books just by having detailed descriptions of things talked about in the game oh you don't know about the death watch uh what about the Primark chaplains primaris all these could be answered and given description in game to help newcomers to the universe lore is the reason I got into the tabletop and I'm sure I'm not alone after some thinking I think the game could benefit from a lore description again to Final Fantasy 16 couldn't agree more because I am so in invested into this now and again you know I am extremely curious about this upcoming Amazon TV series as well I'm crossing my fingers I don't screw screw that one up that'd be horrible now I always keep you guys in the know about how this game is being received because I do believe that is super important for the game's health and its longevity and yeah we you know today is just launch day of course but guess what good news we're already now at very positive rating on Steam and we went from Mostly POS positive now to very positive we worked our way all the way up to that point in absolutely no time and I told you guys I would let you know if it went over 80% it did it's sitting at 80% right now so yeah excellent news and bodess well for the game for sure all right so now it's time to go over your top comments remember leave a comment down below can end up right here in a future video let's do this so it says I haven't been kicking people but the amount of times I've had a level three to four character try to jump into a substantial match is is insane it seems to be happening to a lot of people and it causes issues especially on those you know higher difficulties for sure and we have I want a librarian class so bad I mean I want all of them but that one I really want hell yes couldn't agree more now people don't realize operation difficulty has a level check for your Marine but reading is hard apparently this is extremely important to know before heading into any of the operations to pay attention to that sort of thing then it says an easy and needed change is giving invulnerability to those quick Hot Shot executions so many times I performed them to get a bar of armor back only to lose two bars to a mob of Tangers before I regain control of my character I could not agree more there needs to be some level of protection and vulnerability status when you are doing those execution moves it just feels like at some level you're kind of like doing it for no reason and it is pretty cool to feel like you're on the edge of dying like all the time at certain points like damn this is getting tough but at the same time you don't want to feel like a weakling you know you are a Space Marine uh now we also have I want my salamander to have volcanic ash skin and red eyes 268 up boats that would be badass Apothecary would be amazing to have in the game and I think would be extremely helpful at those higher difficulties especially if they do end up adding a higher difficulty but I think that you know and I'm going to speculate completely here if they do an apothecary they'll probably line that up with the hord mode that makes total sense to me and maybe add a new difficulty alongside that so that's my theory right now but thank you guys so much for watching you know what there's actually this comment I got to mention it uh fov sliders and shoulder swap needed yes the shoulder swap thing that would be great I think there's some comments from the dev team about that I'll try to dig that up again but there's reasons why shoulder swap was not included but uh you know even Gears of War had shoulder Swap and it works great so I still think that should go for it thank you all so much for watching stay tuned here for more news and updates about all things Space Marine 2 I have you guys covered and I will see you all next time take care
