Warhammer : End Times - Vermintide │★★★★★ The game is a co-op action title for four players that resembles Left 4 Dead. While the similarities are clear, like surviving tough odds and facing specialized 'boss' enemies, Vermintide sets itself apart with a focus on a more brutal and physical combat system. Melee combat dominates. The weapons feel heavy and require skill to use effectively, from managing stamina for blocks to executing powerful charged attacks. This combat system rewards players for their skill and understanding of enemy types. However, this emphasis on a challenging combat system comes with a steep learning curve and a high difficulty level. The game's progression relies on its loot system, which gives out random gear after each successful mission. This can lead to a long and sometimes tedious grind for better equipment, especially on lower difficulties where the best gear is hard to come by. It's a system meant to keep you engaged, but it can feel like a c...

About the Game
Vermintide is a co-operative action first person shooter and melee combat adventure set in the End Times of the iconic Warhammer Fantasy world.
Vermintide takes place in and around Ubersreik, a city overrun by Skaven. You will assume the role of one of five heroes, each featuring different play-styles, abilities, gear and personality. Working cooperatively, you must use their individual attributes to survive an apocalyptic invasion from the hordes of relentless rat-men, known as the Skaven. Battles will take place across a range of environments stretching from the top of the Magnus Tower to the bowels of the Under Empire.
Core Features:
- Cooperative Survival For up to 4 Players - Band together with your friends or die alone. Vermintide will continuously test the teamwork and skill of you and your friends. Drop-in, drop-out Multiplayer and the addition of A.I. bots ensures a full team at any time, regardless of available players.
- Play as Five Unique Heroes - Five distinct characters to choose from, each with their own personality, agenda and story to tell. Learning what it means to work together is key to the group's survival.
- Huge Hero Arsenal - Each hero has its own unique weapons arsenal to draw from, allowing you to adjust their combat style to fit their gameplay preference. There are hundreds of different weapons, includíng swords, daggers, axes, hammers, bows, guns, magical staves & more
- Embark on an Epic Quest - Boasting 13 diverse levels - on the ground, in buildings, on walls and underground - ranging from the immense Magnus Tower to the treacherous Under Empire, Vermintide will take you on a journey you’ll never forget.
- Experience the Skaven Like Never Before - A rising tide of malicious and cunning rat-men await you, hacking, clawing and eviscerating all that stand in their way. Face vicious packs of clan-rats and deadly specialized elites.
- Gather Shiny Loot - Rewarding teamwork above all else, you are given loot dice at the end of a mission that will reward you and your team mates with a weapon, a hat or a trinket. Completing side objectives means that better loot dice can be added to the roll.
- Battle Unpredictable Enemies - Vermintide features a dynamic spawn system providing a constant set of new challenges lurking behind every corner.
- Experience an Immersive Story - Games Workshop veterans have banded together to write a fantastic new addition to the Warhammer lore, offering a new perspective on the cataclysmic events of The End Times.
- Find a Path to Safety - The Skaven boast incredible mobility, able to climb and leap fantastic distances to make life a living hell for the Heroes. No matter where you go, they will be there, ready to pounce.
The time of mortals is ending, and the reign of Chaos draws ever closer. The Dark Gods are at last united in a singular purpose, losing their madness across the world as never before. In the Empire of Sigmar, Karl Franz's gaze is focused on the incursion of the savage northmen, but it is not the only threat. As the Chaos moon Morrslieb waxes full, shrill voices echo through tunnels gnawed far beneath the Empire's cities, and a Skaven host swarms towards the surface. It emerges first in the city of Ubersreik, a screeching mass that consumes all before it. Soon Ubersreik is a charnel-town, drowning beneath the malevolent shadow of the Horned Rat.
Yet even in the darkest times, there are always champions to light the way. As Ubersreik cowers, five heroes, united by capricious fate, carry the fight to the rat-men. It remains to be seen whether they have the strength to survive, let alone work together long enough to thwart the invaders. One truth, however, is beyond all doubt: should these five fall, then Ubersreik will fall with them.

Games seems very interesting, it's a shame I can't play it. Steam says I've played Vermintide for 35 minutes. Most of that was trying to get the game to not crash. I got two diferent types of crashes, one related to "texture creature", whatever the hell it is, and "page allocator. I tried looking up possible ways of fixing it. I tried restarting steam, restarting my pc, verifying the games files and disabling the steam overlay, yet no success. I could barely play the prologue mission. Another funny thing is the windowed mode. Like some other games, Vermintide launches in windowed mode. However, it does not take into account the taskbar, so you end up not seeing the part of the screen where the button prompts appear until you're able to change the settings. This looks like a Warhammer Left 4 Dead, but I have no reason to go through a billion hoops to play a game when there are so many others I can play. When I buy a game, I just want to play the game. I don't care about utra high gra...
need new mouse weekly for this game and hand need balm so much clicking.
It seems that the devs simple ABANDONED this game. Solo, you will have to GRID all the way from ZERO! And by saying that, means every mission completed at normal will give you most of the time normal or blue gear. SHIT. Dont get me wrong. It probably is a good game if you played coop with descent loot but playing SOLO is just DEPRESSING and UNREWARDING. I bought the full kit containing vermintide 1,2,and 3.. I guess i made the biggest mistake. I wanted to play it from the start, looking forward to the storyline but its just so depressing, unrewarding, and doesnt make me want to play the expansion sets. I play games like Apex Legends A LOT where a simple kill rewards you greatly with an ingame loot. This game however, rewards you wil BLANK SLATES, or level 2 item AT MOST after more than 10 minutes of a SINGLE MISSION. The gameplay can be fun, but overall it is just a depressing game.
I do not recommend this game, playing co-op had huge lag spikes and playing single player is near impossible due to how stupid the Bots are (as in I watched them watch me from a ledge I dropped down from and get murdered and they did nothing). All in all I gave it a chance and it was found lacking.
Used to be a great game. Don't waste your money. Dead game.
pretty simple, the battle mechanics are soo lame, just keep going and jump&slash.
