Missing far too much content to be worth the high crash rate.

Fatshark will eventually fix the crashing but there are a lot of major downgrades from VT2

inability to craft weapons, and materials being by character as opposed to Vermintides sharing across all, makes generating an alt more cumbersome and annoying. Inability to craft weapons in general has you running to an ingame weapon shop that cycles inventory hourly, with no guarantee at all that you will see a weapon type you want, let alone one that has any quality to it.

My biggest doubt going into the game was that they were going to be successful with the random mobs having ranged weapons. This has gone OK so far and I am somewhat impressed they did it this well.

The inability to pick any mission and any difficulty combo you want is a strange change and I don't hate it but i don't see why they did it.

Missions no longer drop chests, and random drop weapons are infrequent, it does appear to scale with difficulty, but more frustrating is when it gives you something you do not want, and you cant even scrap the thing for crafting mats.

It's probably not worth a buy right now if you just wanted the Vermintide 2 experience. the track record indicates that it will improve and then fall off as cashgrab DLC starts to come out shifting Meta to a bunch of weapons you have to pay extra for. They will likely still go for that experience even though they have pissed away a lot of good will from their customer base.
