Previously soloable raids on live servers no longer soloable because developers decides to buff boss stats by massive amount as requested by people who play on Legendary Servers.

Seriously, if they want a challenge then make the changes affect them only, not on non-LS.

In Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide, you play as one of the five unique heroes and work together with up to three other players in a fictional town named Ubersreik to save the town by doing various missions while killing every Skaven (rat-men) that gets in the way.

While showing many similarities to Left 4 Dead series, Vermintide differs in the sense that it puts a lot of emphasis on melee combat, kind of like Chivalry. Ranged combat is possible but there are a lot of restrictions, mainly the limited amount of ammunition you get.

Pros
* Character interactions with each other showcases their unique personalities nicely, rather than just five generic characters that looks different
* Having many ways (decapitation, caving heads, explosives, etc) to kill rats is satisfying
* Collecting books and grimoires adds challenge regardless of difficulty, and can improve loot quality
* Levelling also rewards you with loot, so your progression isn't halted should you find yourself not winning often.
* Different characters having different playstyles adds variety and replayability
* Rat Ogres make L4D Tanks look like babies

Cons
* Cannot sprint - You will have to rely on your own dodging and parrying skills if there are no one to cover you
* Optimisations need improvement - CPU/graphic card usage remains high even for high-spec computers
* Matchmaking is 'First come, first serve' rather than lobby browsing (You deal with the same people for a particular map until slot is filled, forcing you to play different map or host your own lobby).
* Weapon balancing needs work, some weapons are underpowered making them undesirable
* No shared equipment besides trinkets (already somewhat rare itself depending on luck)
* Rewards don't fully justify difficulty - Common weapon is possible reward for nightmare/cataclysm difficulty
* Unpredictable spawns can feel rather punishing at times even on easier difficulties
* Bot intelligence makes solo play rather unfun
* Curse those near unstoppable, physics defying Zeratul rats- Oh sorry wrong game, I meant Gutter Runners

Despite these flaws, Vermintide is still very promising as the development is very active, and you can expect a lot of these issues to be resolved in the upcoming updates.

Many years later and still have not resolved the problem with items morphing into toy hammer not able to turn back, single player experience ruined permanently.

The developers should be shot for creating such a stupid, bug ridden game to scam players.
