Warhammer: Vermintide 2 received a much-needed patch today. The update doesn’t add any new content, but it does include tons of Quality of Life changes. Some annoying bugs were also squashed. Most of the changes are for PC users only.
You can increase the speed of reward pop-ups by pressing Space or ESC. The animation speed of crafting is also increased, and now you can press a button to clear the salvage grid. Automatic blocking is implemented when you lose control of your character, and you don’t have to re-add items when you are upgrading the same item.
Complete patch notes of the updates are mentioned below and on the official site.
