i cant wait to shoot gun
Commissar better be a fucking class or I'm gonna have to start executing some bitches. And if it is, I'm gonna start executing some bitches.
If you will not serve in combat then you shall serve on the firing line PEW.
[QUOTE=SwissArmyKnife;22650822] Imperial Guardsman with seperate trees to specialize in Techpriest, Commisar, possible paths down Inquisition.[/QUOTE] None of those make sense. Techpreists are Adaptmech, commissars are trained from childhood, and the Inquisition doesn't have anything to do with the guard. Commissars would make sense if you started as one. I think we're looking at stormtroopers and ogryns and such.
looks good needs more blood

Needs more MASSIVE battles really. Other then that i looks great.
[QUOTE=Kalleo;22655039]Yeah, but they will have to stretch the lore a bit sooner or later.[/QUOTE] Stretching the lore means violently raping the lore just like WoW did. R.I.P WH40k.

[QUOTE=LeonS;22655157]Stretching the lore means violently raping the lore just like WoW did. R.I.P WH40k.[/QUOTE] How else are they going to do it? If its going to be even slightly balanced there needs to be some lore stretching.

It seems a bit too vivid in colours, and I can't say I like that UI (looks like WoW), but for the rest it looks awesome.
[QUOTE=acds;22655758]It seems a bit too vivid in colours, and I can't say I like that UI (looks like WoW), but for the rest it looks awesome.[/QUOTE] 40k has always been pretty vivid. Haven't you ever seen the tabletop?
Dibs on the name Metalboxes.

I hope there are a lot of context sensitive voice clips, like in DoW II. It's those little touches that make a game so much better. Also, the bolter in that trailer in 0:40 didn't sound nearly meaty enough, though the muzzle flash was quite nice, and it fired a bit too fast imho. The small vehicles look pretty good though, it seems like the maps will be pretty big to accommodate them.

Come on guys...
My guess is that they'll try and come up with some kind of alliances, even though basically none of the factions would cooperate for any reason (counting all of the Imperium as one faction). But if they cut the Eldar they could probably do a Imperium vs Everyone else.
Looks like it will be like in DoW Winter Assault... kind of lame but that was asking too much. Also looks like there will be a cover system, so maybe not all battles will be melee
yeah obviously not if all battles were melee there would be no need for boltguns, titans, lasguns, and shootas

Not only are you not making the game unique but you also just raped the fluff. Well, that is what that implies atleast. So long its just a thing for PvP, I guess it's ok. But if the factions have any sort of an alliance...
I'm not gonna lie I really want to be a tyrannid. They're so badass.
[QUOTE=A.C.I.D;22655353]How else are they going to do it? If its going to be even slightly balanced there needs to be some lore stretching.[/QUOTE] There's ways of staying true to the lore without breaking balance. It means the developers are going to have to the balls to do it though. Usually you have to decide between breaking lore, balance, or familiarity. If the devs are willing to release an MMO that doesn't feel familiar with a lot of new ideas it's a huge risk, but I honestly don't see how you're going to release a game without a lot of good new ideas implemented well into the MMO market and expect it to succeed.
Looks like i'll be choosing my all time WH40K Favourite Race...the Chaos Marines. Somehow i just like their Armor and their Spiky things.

Kind of offtopic but. So, I just started playing DOW2 again, but when I try to play online, I get no games. I just see that there is a new version 2.2. For some reason Live won't download any patch for the game. I searched High and low in google to find one, but no results. Please help!
[QUOTE=Hezzy;22650980]For best PvP dynamics you'll want 3 factions, so possibly Imperium V Chaos V Aliens[/QUOTE] Looks like it might be Imperium vs. Chaos vs. Orks [editline]01:54PM[/editline] Are there more in there? Might have missed other races.
Guess who I'm going to be at the E3 convention. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cO3MttgvHUY[/media] Metal bawxes > Chaos Space Marines.
