Well, do not fear, for there is a way how to figure out this pickle!

How to find players from previous games
"Hey man, there was this player, friendly, polite, helpful, <insert own laudatory statements here>...but I can't remember..."
No worries! Yes! There is, in fact, a way to find players from games past! Not a very elegant one, but hey...

  • Step 1: locate the following directory: %appdata%\fatshark\Warhammer End Times Vermintide\console_logs\
    (%appdata% is an environment variable, usually C:\Users\<WinUserName>\AppData\Roaming\)

    If you have troubles finding the directory, note that one or more of the directories along the way may be set to 'Hidden', but if you copy %appdata% to your explorer location bar/commander/command line (if you're into that :P) you should arrive there safely.

  • Step 2: locate the file "console-<date>-<time>-<stuff>.log", where <date> is the year-month-date of the memorable game, <time> is hrs.mins.secs, and <stuff> is gibberish.

    A new log file is created after each game launch (AFAIK), so you may have to go through a few of these.
    (Or you could content-search the directory, if you know how. If not, well...google is your friend.)

  • Step 3: search the files for occurrences the string "PlayerManager:assign_unit_ownership". Most of the time either your own nick or VT character names will come after the entry (with some numbers and stuff...uninteresting for commonfolk). But sooner or later you'll come across the name of that one player from that one memorable game.

  • Step 4: Find the guy/gal, become friends, have fun playing :).

You can see people you played with from most games in steam browser while ingame through the "players" button though (the tab+shift thing, doesnt work while non-ingame for whatever reason)

Nope you can't. They didn't bother to implement that feature.

Can't you just go to your profile, click on friends and then click on "Recently played with"?
Or am i missing something here?

Just want to point out...anyone with derp in the name would NEVER be helpful, they almost always try to ruin the game for everyone else.
