Warhammer: Vermintide 2 Reviews

played this game on and off for ages and i still keep coming back whenever i find myself having time. great game, would recommend

This game fix my itch for Left for dead, but what if class focus in fantasy Medieval times.

Probably the best game in the genre since L4D. The characters really make this game fantastic.

Dont get me wrong... the game is not bad on itself its a fun hack and slash almost... not bad at all.... BUT WHY TF DOES IT HAVE easy anticheat???!!!??? its not a proffessional e-sports title that has anticheat at the highest priority??? thanks to easy anticheat you cant launch the game on any platform other than windows.... thanks to everyone involved in the braindead decision of implementing it into this game.... you are the real ret4rds!

Do not buy this game as of 3/29/2025. They've butchered the game's graphics and neutered performance for the sake of Versus mode. Now everyone has to deal with crashes, terrible graphics and everything running and looking like literal sh!t because they couldn't be bothered to properly implement their new game mode. 0/10, a great game ruined.

I came over from darktide during our usual content dry spell and man, although I do believe that darktide's combat is the best bar none. The missions in this game are simply fantastic. I met an autismo wizard on here the other day and he was showing me some of the secrets that your levels had to offer and it was blowing me away. Fantastic job. Also Saltzspire go brrrr.

I never review a game, but really, this game is amazing. The sound, the skill cap, the satisfaction from slaying vermin. The biggest issue i have though is the constant disconnects from lobbies even though my internet is fine

+ if your tired of the state of modern games buy the base game it is insanely fun the combat pace is break neck but enjoyable, you can actually turn the enemy spawn up to 300 at a time from the settings menu and you should. - they locked the highest difficulty and best weapons behind dlc pay walls which is a big turn off even if they are affordable

Great game, it uses the same formula as left 4 dead but with more mechanics. 10/10

This game used to be a lot of fun and was working, even with some flaws, great overall. For whatever reason, Fatshark decided to add some stuff like Versus mode (which for sure can be fun for some ppl) and therefore broke the game to a level where I decided to write this review after over 1150 hours. The base game (co-op mode) is what its about, which a lot of veterans (and also new players) play since years due to its challenges, varied encounters, great heroes (and careers), the atmosphere and of course the style of a great Warhammer game. But as said earlier, whatever they changed ruined the game experience for me and prbly others as well due to feedback i read in the chat of game sessions. As an example I met a guy a few days back which came back after over a year to the game. And i typed how wonky the game became because of some stupid sh** that happened (more following) and he just said: "right?" so that he wondered the same what it became. The desync and behaviour of some attacks and foes have became so ridiculous, that you just can make jokes or memes of it. Enemies rubber banding around corners, Monsters throw you out of the map (through terrain), stuff that you usually really know how to do (attack patterns, dodges and what so ever) became feel random and wonky. Beside of the disaster of the new "Anti Cheat" they integrated because of Versus which caused just more problems like random connection losses, ages for ppl to join games, crashes, mod incompatibility and so on. Just a side note, the player base is still looks the same since years, no difference if Versus mode or not. Also to mention, that widely reported bugs which are in the base game for years don't get fixed... I mean, if the game would become harder or whatsoever, that would be fine. But all the mentioned things make it just frustrating to continue play the game on higher difficulties. If you die or whole team wipes because of mistakes, that's fine. We almost always make fun of it and easy can admit when mistakes happen. But when a party wipes because of the mentioned behaviour, it just makes you want to uninstall the game honestly and wait until Fatshark sorts their things. Due to the way they work (like over a year for a weapon pack) or the Darktide situation, where stuff still not in the game since launch (around 3 years) which was promised, I don't have much hope. It is just sad that they broke a game which worked and was fun as mentioned and had a solid player base over almost 7 years. So yea, that was what ruined it for me after 1150 hours. No hard feelings in that. I appreciated the free content they added in the last years. I also own every single DLC and almost any cosmetic. Just to share.
