Everyone's talking about the other Warhammer game out there now, but have you played or even heard of this other game?
It came out under the radar but it's been quite a success with many dlcs coming out. It is on a weekend deal on steam by the time of my writing. It's not an expensive game even at full-price, though.
Basically, it's a Left4Dead set in a dark fantasy world (which equals "FUN" at least to my ears). Instead of zombies you're fighting rat-like creatures, the mix between ranged and melee weapons is very good and the different characters and looting system gives it a lot of replay value.
It's been a while I'm having fun with it and although you can single-play, it is way funnier on multiplayer (kindda like Borderlands, for those who liked it). Anyone interested, feel free to add me on steam and lets behead some stinky rats =D
Yup, this game was pretty fun when it came out. Just didn't have the legs to last that long before something shinier came along. That said, if anyone's still clamoring to group together for this, I'd be game.
I tried it on the freeplay this weekend, but bounced right off the matchmaking. The way it switched my character without permission, and then made me into a host without permission? Unacceptable.
You're my game, you do what I tell you. If I want to play the guy in the big hat, that's the one I want to play, and I'm willing to wait however long that takes. And I don't want to host when I don't know anything about the game.
No sale.
Existing thread, if you want to go exploring for people to play with. I'd like to get back into this at some point, despite being flaky at committing to multiplayer, so do friend me up if you like!

Thank you! Probably a stupid question, but how do I search the forums for existing topics?
I've been posting here for 5 or 6 years and still haven't worked out how to do that. You can just use Google though, it's not perfect but works in this case. Typing in 'gamers with jobs vermintide' returns the original thread as the first result.

On desktop, a custom Google search for the site comes up under 'More' on the menus at the top. Can't remember if it's possible to bring that up on mobile (other than by redirecting your browser to the non-moblie version of the site).

Some fun dialogue from the game
It's a shame the matchmaking was so broken in that game.
I never had a problem with the matchmaking, all the quirks are from not having dedicated servers.

A game where you can't play the character you want? Where you're forced to host whether you want to or not?
That's pretty damn broken. You're expected to serve the needs of the game, instead of the game serving you.
I had a rough go in this game last night. Three times I was at the very end of a hard mission, heading towards the wagon, when I'd get the "Cannot connect to Steam server" message. I have no idea what was going on but to say it was disheartening was an understatement.

That stinks. I've had the sort of opposite happen a few times. Join a game in progress with 1 or 2 empty spots and load up to having the wagon right in front of me.
Learn to swim.
Seems there are two active threads for this game at the moment. Here is the other thread, which is more active (and was posted first by the looks of it).
