Get your fill of sci-fi, science, and mockery of stupid ideas

Well that would certainly be in line with the novels.Samuel wrote:
The bolter doesn't have infinite rounds yhou know. You need to aim to blow apart multiple cultists at the same time.
I honestly have no idea what your trying to say here.Linking your shots together is important, and not just for style.
The game is going to present Sapce Marines at the absolute peak of their capability (ala Brothers of the Snake), wherein one dude, admittedly with a Rogue Trader era Thunder Hammer, can wade through a big swarm of angry green and come out the other side splattered in Ork bits. Given that two of the Marines apparently rely primarily on shooting, chances are that the guns will be pretty powerful.Cpl Kendall wrote:I'm all for exploding cultist heads and throwing their bodies across the room but wouldn't that make it a little to easy?
The idea that a tech demo where you're being talked through the gameplay elements by a designer and hes talking about what direction they want to take the game in on an official gaming website is not indicative of how they want the final game to turn out?Feil wrote:Steel wrote:I saw a gameplay trailer a couple of weeks ago. It didnt have lots of the features/content they said they were planning, but there were quite a lot of things that worried me. Like how the bolter appeared to fire about 50 rounds a second, but had basically no effect on the cultists the guy was fighting. I forget the exact words they used, but they said the idea was to use your ranged weapon to "distract" or tickle or something the enemies so you could close to use your melee weapons to do the real damage. It looked like it would be a lone beatemup thing, with miniboss chaos marines and hordes of crap to wade through. Did look like the style was ok from that trailer though...
You saw a leaked pre-alpha tech demo that the studio didn't want to have leaked at all. The idea that it has any implications on the game's final combat dynamic is retarded.
Hot blood and guts, they'll totally fill an entire city with streets full of Dark Eldar corpses!

The alpha footage that was being discussed showed the marine fighting cultists and Chaos Marines, so there's more than likely those in there too. Though I think it'd be boss to play as a Chaos marine or something.Shroom Man 777 wrote: I hope there are more opponents other than just goddamn Orks. Playing the third-person equivalent of the original Dawn of War, complete with Chaos conspiracies and shit, would be awesome.
Excellent. That gives me hope that there will be other opponents at your level as well.Ford Prefect wrote:

That part was beautiful, and so quintessentially Space Marine too.Ford Prefect wrote:I think it's pretty funny how the Assault Marine loves hitting shit with his hammer so much that he goes out of his way to hit an Ork during a nuclear explosion.
The trailer also shows a few instances of the Space Marines chopping up Chaos Guardsmen.born in shadow wrote:The alpha footage that was being discussed showed the marine fighting cultists and Chaos Marines, so there's more than likely those in there too.Shroom Man 777 wrote: I hope there are more opponents other than just goddamn Orks.

AFAIK, that was a different designer.Steel wrote: The idea that a tech demo where you're being talked through the gameplay elements by a designer and hes talking about what direction they want to take the game in on an official gaming website is not indicative of how they want the final game to turn out?
