Played the Space Marine Demo.
I played the demo and I'm getting a weird sense as well. It feels like the game is going to be very short for some reason, so I'm wary of buying it right now. I think I'm gonna hold off and wait and see how it does first.
[QUOTE=spiderpiglol;31906092]More marketing shit, Mark Strong voices the main character and actually sounds like he knows what he's talking about, plus it isn't cheesy as fuck. [video=youtube;QD4jCxgENgk]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QD4jCxgENgk[/video][/QUOTE] That was pretty good, i like how Mark Strong describes his character so well to us, as well as Titus's two companions. Also, for those of you who didn't watch that video, Titus's two companions' names are Leandros and Cydonis (I'm not sure if i spelled Cydonis's name right, though.), Cydonis is the marine from the trailer which says to Titus 'Worry not Captain, i've saved some orks for you.', and Leandros is the other companion, sorry if by telling you this i'm spoiling something.
Even if it is going to be short, it's going to be fucking Spectacular, It might just be that the Demo levels are short as the first few levels may introduce you to various elements of gameplay.

I don't think it'll be short, and if it will be, it will be a great experience either way, in my opinion. We don't really get a lot of 40k shooters, so let's hope that this one will be good, i think it will be.
We've had 2 40K Shooters, a Space Hulk one (which I've not played) and Fire Warrior, which was god-emperor awful.
Is anyone elses sound really choppy in the PC demo? Mine cuts out whenever too much is going on, really irritating.
[QUOTE=cyclocius;31907387]Is anyone elses sound really choppy in the PC demo? Mine cuts out whenever too much is going on, really irritating.[/QUOTE] yeah, instead of mine cutting it out it lags behind by a few seconds. not sure what the problem could be :/
Damn, I wasn´t expecting this. The demo was was surprisingly hard and surprisingly entertaining.
What books are there on warhammer 40k ? By books I mean actual novels/stories not books on how to play.
[QUOTE=Richy19;31907617]What books are there on warhammer 40k ? By books I mean actual novels/stories not books on how to play.[/QUOTE] anything you can find by Dan Abnett is usually good
Ah yeah, for people in the UK who can't be arsed to do the Honor Guard stuff can use this to download the demo on steam: [url]steam://install/55410[/url]

I don't like how the Orks sound in Space Marine. They sound so.. not Orkish. Still was great though.

jump pack ALL MY MONEY TAKE IT
Hopefully the game is the 10-12 hours they said it would be, and not some 4 hour CoD bullshit. Even with multiplayer that's not good enough.
The Demo is just the first part of Chapter 2, not sure where the Jump pack takes place but it's before chapter 5.

Whenever I play the demo, the door in the first mission doesn't open and when I get the jump packs in the second demo mission Titus just stands there frozen with a dumb look on his face.
[QUOTE=acds;31903700]Depends. There are a few theories/prophecies: - Emperor dies and is reborn as the Starchild, destroys all warp gods and someone (read the Imperium) takes over the physical galaxy. - The Sensei are gathered up and sacrificed to the Emperor and he is revived/reborn, we get a physical Emperor that goes back to kicking ass (I really hope that if something happens, it's this). - Emperor just dies, the Imperium falls, the galaxy is ripped apart by the warp, everything gets fucked up to the extreme and probably some other bad things due to the death of such a powerful entity (the psychic effect of the fall of the Eldar created Slaanesh and the Eye of Terror, so the effects depend on the Emperor's real power, which we never got to see, and even if it doesn't he is holding the warp under the Golden Throne at bay, so when he dies that opens either way).[/QUOTE] The emperor dies, Malal is reborn.

Soul Drinkers manliest chapter ever. They stay true even if that means they are hated by their own Imperium. [editline]24th August 2011[/editline] Or Crimson Fists. Cause they have awesome artwork. [editline]24th August 2011[/editline] Anyone has any idea why the textures might be flickering? My friend downloaded the demo and is having such problems
Everyone knows that the Space Wolves are the most badass chapter. Their Primarch is still alive, and he beat the Emperor in a drinking and eating contest.

Space Wolves were designed to destroy other chapters.

Besides, Russ let him hit him, he fancied a good nap. Also Marbalo...Ork....Civilians? No such thing As for the Necrons, they were originally the Necrontyr, who lived on a planet with brutal radiation, so their lifespans were short, they got into a tussle with the Old Ones (beings who created the Orks, the Eldar and fiddled with Humanity's DNA) because they were jealous of their longevity, they find a powerful being (a C'Tan) feeding from their star, they construct a bridge to get there. built the creature a Living metal Body, in the hopes of communicating with it/convincing it to help them fight against the old ones, it tricks them, enslaves most if not all of their race in living metal bodies and thus the Necrons were born, they went to sleep because a plague swept across the galaxy, killing off most life.
