i know of 4 darklings so far
- berserker (armed with a saw or one of those jackhammers they use to break up roads)
- kamikaze
- minigunner
- that one that uses lightning seen in newer video's

berserkers have heaps of different weapons and costumes, there is an achievement for finding them all. i'd say we can have around 4, probably one of each, it might be too easy if you could just have 4 gunners backing you up.

if there are 4 darkling spawns then you can have 4. 4 is the limit though.

Pretty sure the lighting darkling is the lightkiller darkling. In some of the footage he shoots the electricity at a lightbulb. Does anyone find this to be contradictory to the nature of the darkness (darklings using lightning)?

the darkness has powers over chaos and creation, so its not too weird having a darkling with lighting powers.

lol no prob, and keep in mind that four may seem low if you think of the darkness as an Overlord type game, the Darkness is an fps no a game about controlling monsters :)

yeah so true, thats why at first i thought it was low but then you look from a darkness point of view and it makes sense:P i cant wait to see them in action i seen all these bizzare things they do. they hang off ceiling fans, they pee and spit on there enemy's and they swear alot:p so i think there random:p
oh how i hope this game will be great!

Four is the max Darklings you can have out at any given time. As for how many darklings are in the game, on the main website they say over a dozen.....

^ I am pretty sure they are talking about the different costumes each of the 4 types of Darklings have.
Ex. Berserker- fireman with an axe, Darkling with a saw, construction darkling with jackhammer, etc

I think instead of costumes, they're more like separate darklings, but put into 4 categories. Because each one has a different attack then the next in their category.

there are three different types of darklings in each category for example :
Berseker: Firefighter berserker, Construction worker Beserker, And Carpenter Berserker. Each on has different melle weapons and attacks but their core A.I is the same.

Yeah, well, the core AI for all of them is the same, they just have different preset motions and actions.

Actually the core A.I. between a gunner and a kamakazi darkling are very different. When the gunner spots enemies he retreats to a distance and then begins firing, whereas the kamikazi darkling rushes the enemies and kills himself. That is actually very different A.I., there are a couple preset A.I actions common to all darklings, but combat wise the A.I is very different.

I love it when people act as if they know what they're talking about.
