Few more days till gamescom! I want that new info now!
Problem with this is that the lore is gonna get fucked to make it balanced. It won't be fun if space marines are 10x better than guardsmen, but it'll fuck up the lore if they aren't.

I think guards are playable aren't they?
We don't know that yet.
I hope you get to control 3-4 of them just like the gibberlings in allods

One more week! Let's pray it doesn't suck Also if they are doing the whole two factions thing, it really only works with 3 races (Imperium vs Chaos/Orks). I don't see them adding ANY other races if they go down that retarded track
Or maybe it'll be like with WoW? I mean, the expansions with new races.
They could do that, but they wouldn't really be able to do a faction thing like WoW or Allods does. Only two races would be able to do that and that's IG and SM's (And SoB's if they include them). I like the idea of doing to Dark Crusade/Soul Storm where it's a free-for-all kind of thing excluding Imperial Guard (i don't want to kill them)

Who knows how many factions there will be? Also, game developers already said that new races will be added over time.

From the trailers and stuff I'd say it's Space Marines vs Orks vs Chaos, so a 1on1on1. I assume those guardsmen will be npcs of the Imperium, because the Chaos and the Orks will need some weaker npcs to kill, as it propably won't be a complete PvP game.

It's not like the Old Age, each race has their own agenda and alliances are few and VERY far between. SMs vs Orks vs Chaos is still a free-for-all of sorts. Also, it's 50/50 chance that IG will be playable, so we'll see on the NPC part. As for new races, SQUATS.
[QUOTE=Boba_Fett;21800380]I can't wait until 40k gets a fanbase of a bunch of thirteen year old retards.[/QUOTE] I'm 13 and I'm proud to say I'm not a retard when it comes to Warhammer.
[QUOTE=DeVotchKa;24099422]You can't say "Order vs Destruction" though. [/QUOTE] It says Order and Destruction [I]on their freaking site[/I] people. Learn to read
[QUOTE=thrawn2787;24114870]It says Order and Destruction [I]on their freaking site[/I] people. Learn to read[/QUOTE] Don't be a dick, the dude i was talking to could've meant that or WAR. Besides, Order and Destruction for 40k wouldn't include two major factions ala Alliance/Horde, it'd most likely be Chaos versus the Imperium of Man. So you can't do it like that. EDIT: And looking at the Dark Millennium site, i don't see "Order and Destruction" anywhere.
With "Order vs Destruction" I meant a gameplay like they have in WAR. But I agree with you DeVotchKa, I think a free-for-all is much more propable. And it's also the system I'd prefer. However I don't think they'll include Squats as they've been taken out of the game. :o
Trailer looks good.
Eldar, Tau, etc. So many expansions.
I hope the IG is playable and that we can be from the Steel legion of Armageddon, just because they are badass.

Makes me wonder if the game will take place in the 41st or 42nd Millennium. Probably 41st because that's the typical one but you never know.
[QUOTE=ZuXer;23825255]I would like to know that too. Why common guardsmen? I can Sort of understand Psykers, and Commisars that buff you, but that is it.[/QUOTE] I want them because Space Marines aren't the only things in the Imperium.

[QUOTE=thrawn2787;24145871]It's called Warhammer 40k for a reason[/QUOTE] Ok, so going on that logic then everything Relic, Games Workshop and all them have done should take place in the 40th millennium.
[QUOTE=DeVotchKa;24149338]Ok, so going on that logic then everything Relic, Games Workshop and all them have done should take place in the 40th millennium.[/QUOTE] They all do (well, everything 40k related). Although the Horus Heresy is part of the 40k lore, notice the books don't actually have the 40k symbol on them? :smug: [img]http://img1.fantasticfiction.co.uk/images/n35/n175018.jpg[/img] Compared to a 40k novel [img]http://www.nickkyme.com/uploaded_images/Salamander-v.2-778002.jpg[/img]
[QUOTE=thrawn2787;24150723]They all do (well, everything 40k related)." [/quote] Now that's where you're wrong. Most everything takes place in the 41st. Not all mind you, some of it takes place before like the books but the majority takes place in the 41st. A prime example is the games. All the games are during the 41st, including most of Tabletop.
They better show gameplay at gamescom today.
