Inquisitor - Martyr: Content Patch v0.7.0

16

Updates to W40K: Inquisitor - Martyr have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client (in on-line mode) is restarted. It is also recommended to delete any launch parameters you previously had (you can re-add them if they help again, but it is safer to assume everything works best without them). Please also note that the backend server might take up to 30 minutes to transfer to the newest update, during which time login will not be possible.

Character Wipe

Due to the massive leveling changes that the community asked for as described in our previous post, we have issued a full Character/Account reset in the game as simply put, it would not be possible to transfer anyhing from the previous version of the game due to the sheer amount of mechanic changes.

New Class: Primaris Psyker Inquisitor

Certain Inquisitors used to serve the Imperium of Man as Primaris Psykers before they have reached their current ranks in the Inquisition. They are among the rare sanctioned few who can wield Psychic powers legally. Since Psykers could present a potential danger to entire worlds, the Inquisition relentlessly hunts them down, and those who are strong enough are recruited into Imperial service, fulfilling vital roles – like the Primaris Psykers. Their powers are drawn from the Warp as a weapon to smite the enemies of the Emperor, and  Inquisitors with the Primaris Psyker background are experts in harnessing these boundless energies. In combat they rely on their psychic powers, preferring light armour and psychically attuned weapons.


A Primaris Psyker Inquisitor channels otherworldly energies, but they always risk damnation, deadly backlash from the Immaterium, not to mention the corrosive consequences of this sinister power on his own psyche. In game terms, Psyker Inquisitors gain penalties for using psychic powers, which may spawn Warp anomalies, so this character class requires a very different gameplay style compared to the Crusader of the Assassin Inquisitor.

There are three main specialist Inquisitors with Psyker background in the game, depending on the special wargear they use. Aetherwalkers employ an ancient, psychically reactive armour that phases its wearer between the Immaterium and Realspace, permitting to travel short distances in the blink of an eye. The Empyreanists gain their most important power from the product of a secret research project: even the existence of this ceremonial armour is denied outside the Caligari Conclave, as it uses long-forgotten xenotechnology to create a Warp anomaly that halts the flow of time for a short duration. The Scryers have  a lightly armoured, psychic-attuned suit, the Warpbound  Armour, which permits the Psyker Inquisitor to project its disembodied presence over the physical world, to gaze beyond the veil and take a look around without being detected.

Really glad to see that you guys pulled through. One thing I will say immediately about this patch, please don't have controller input as the default when a controller is detected. I had to alt + F4 in order to type in a name for online use because input for the name creation box was no longer selected.

The Emperor PROTECTS!


[although a fully loaded Heavy Flamer doesn't hurt either...]

Agree with this 100%. I had my controller plugged in and auto detect kicked in when it loaded. Couldn't input the necessary info as the keyboard and mouse didn't work with the controller plugged in for some reason. Had to alt/f4 and unplug the controller before I could make my character.

Well if you using the controller you are able to use the keyboard when the promt is blinking in a text field.

I think it is more an issue when the game boots up right after the patch. keyboard wouldn't work with text box to re-enter the our account name if the controller was plugged in. I haven't tried the controller since and have played regular mouse and keyboard. I'll try it again today and see if i can input text with the keyboard.

Ahhh well, I see. When you have to give a name for your account there is where this issue can happen. I really sorry for it and we gonna fix it. Anyway the other areas of the game you can use the keyboard any time...

Nice update guys. The Psycher is a really interesting class.

And the way you can customise the skills for him with the terminal on the HQ is a nice addition. Also it's a good direction as a concept. Hope some similar options will be available also for the Assassin and the Crusader.


+ Do you plan to implement some sort of feature in the final game to perform skill swaps also during missions?

(e.g.: calling down some kind of drop pod station to manage skills or inoculators ect like some sort of mobile HQ?)

Please rename the Primaris Psyker specialist called the "Empyreanist".  There must be  a better alternative, something less ridiculous and a bit more enigmatic,  perhaps something like "Chronists" or "Empyrists" or the like.
