    So whats the progression like guys?
    Does the game have longevity compared to the first game?

    Can't comment much on the first game, but there seems to be a good progression system in this. Each of the 5 classes have 2 additional sub classes, with a load of talent selections and weapons. Then crafting on top of that (though it seems pretty basic).

    Yeah you can really make a good team based character if you apply the right perks.

    Shame a basic stats system doesnt exist.

    The Twitch intervention thing looks hilarious.

    Ive watched about 4 hours of streams lately and some of the high skill streamers like the guy in the video above really show how high the skill ceiling seems to be.
    To me it looks like diablo,doom,chivalry and vermintide had a baby,sounds great to me :P might pick it up.

    *bump*

    I got this in the Humble Bundle and it's a lot of fun, much improved from the first and pretty much addresses all the things I had a problem with in that I am getting plenty of loot, I'm getting new weapons after most games and I can craft right off the bat. Was playing as the Imperial Soldier dude and have unlocked his 2 additional classes now - will probably switch to the Knight for the charge skill. I find myself getting a lot less "lost" in the maps than I did in the first too. Am giving some serious thought to picking up the DLC's for it now.

    Played a tonne of this over the xmas and for a while after but MHW won me over :P
    Just incase you werent aware you dont actually need the DLC once someone in the group has it so you will get to play it just via matchmaking.

    Ah that's cool, didn't know that. I thought it had be a private group or something. I might go on later so to see what the craic is. I played the hell out of it for 2 weeks at release. Haven't really played much sense :)

    This looks interesting but maybe not well thought out. Needs more bad guys to play as, the new DLC might help.

    Chaos Wastes is a great update, it's nice and simple, a linked series of levels that are randomly put together (hence the rogue-like tags it's getting) that you need to finish in their entirety to get the rewards. You can level up yourself and your weapons through shrines you find in the maps. My girlfriend and I just played through a map for the second time and it was a lot of fun. The maps are quite straightforward and are all the better for it (I found you could easily get lost or turned around on some of the main campaign maps). They've distilled the game down to its essence and for me, I'm a lot more inclined to play this game mode after several years of the other game modes.
