It's a game about war, it's supposed to fell like a horrible nightmare.

Everything. It was supposed to be a massive game like planetside and it's mostly contained in a small map full of invisible walls, glitches, horrid vehicles and shitty skins that cost IRL money.

As someone who played from pre-alpha to past release, the gameplay isn't any more enjoyable now than it was at the beginning. The only solidly positive change was more races, but last I checked the melee system is still hot garbage and the shooting has nothing going for it apart from the fact that it isn't as bad as the melee.

Don't even get me started on the psyker powers.

FTFY. Also GW's management is so idiotic, they think licensing shovelware makes the tabletop look good in comparison, instead of just harming their brand.
>>
>>389828203

Only orks and eldar last I checked, from the original SM and CSM of the alpha.

Speaking of brand, how is the release of Primaris Marines doing for GW financially as well as in the fandom?

I mean to me it's pretty cool that the Primarchs are coming back, even if it is Guilliman.
>>
>>389828484
If we go by /tg/ and other sites with WH40K boards, everyone is buying and showing off those things, so probably well. It also seems they're not on the verge of bankruptcy like they were last year.

Battlefleet Gothic was decent. 40k is going the same way lorewise as Fantasy was. This is end-times all over again only for a different setting.

You'd figure GW could manage handing out their license better.

Singular as opposed to plural.
>>
>>389829506
It's pretty obvious they had this in the making for a long time and due to the backlash from End Times/AOS they're having to dial back the radical changes that're happening to 40k's setting.

It's similar to the Storm of Chaos/Eye of Terror campaigns and how they caused a huge backlash and GW had to retcon their original results that they had planned for the advancement of the setting's lore.

Btw are you the same retarded fag as >>389829330 ? Because you sure sound like him.

I mean it can't be that hard to go to a dev and say "Hey make X game with a 40k skin" right? DoW2 was Company of Heroes with 40k, Space Marine was Gears of War with 40k.

They should just have Platinum Games make an action game where you play as a scantily-clad Eldar or dark Eldar.
>>
>>389829178
You still play Space Marine man? I've stuck with that game longer than I should, but it used to be the only online shooter dor 40k. It's alright at best, now it's evolved to a handful of people knowing the exploits, cheaters, Russians, and any poor sap trying out the game from a sale.

It's the other way around now, devs go to GW with a couple million and they get the IP, no holds barred.
>>
>>389829690
God, if DoW3 was just Company of Heroes 2 with a 40k paint job slapped on it would've been fine, people bitched a lot about the commander DLC garbage but Relic has never made a better game with better vehicle control. Every DoW game has had garbage vehicle micro compared to CoH1/2.

Now I'll never trust Relic again after what they did to DOW3.

>>389829760
Bury your head in the sand and ignore the writing on the wall, GW is too incompetent to handle their IPs. I bet you thought them buying the LOTR ip for minis was worth it and a good deal for the company.

No it wasnt?

I was fucking into this game when they PROMISED it would be a fully fledged MMO with fucking large scale battles, and they PROMISED to deliver massive battles with over 1k player with their revolutionary netcode.

Then why are you questioning what I said?
>>
I've had quite a bit of fun with eternal crusade for about 20 hours, though I don't think I'll ever touch it again
Playing as a CSM havoc with heavy bolter is the shit
They recently released an update which allows you to turn into a SUPER space murine/demon but you need to pay for that, I honestly haven't seen anybody use it ever since
The game lacks maps, especially since siege maps are fucking cancer where defenders win 95% of the time, it's a 30min campfest that's boring as shit. I haven't won once as attacker in some maps.
>>
>>389830758

>>
>>389830492
No (you)
>>
>>389824949
I've got about 100 hours in Eternal Crusade, so I can tell you what the problems are
>balance
the game aspires to have asymmetrical balance, but it frankly doesn't work, because it means some races have guns which are complete powerhouses, and the other factions don't have an equivalent, meaning that every time you match up against a race with an overpowered gun, it will be the cause of at least 70% of your deaths in that match

>no meaningful new content in a year
the only things they've added since this time last year were new "specialist" classes for each race (except eldar, but I'll get back to that....) which cost £25 EACH, and are essentially just normal units with a minor stat change, and are completely uncustomisable
last year they talked about adding in things like terminators, wraith guard, mega nobs, etc, but these have completely been abandoned (despite models and run animations being completed on a couple of them)

>the dev team is currently a skeleton crew
they have <7 people currently working on this, and only 1 of them is an animator; no new content seemingly ever will come to the game at all, as every time the dev team asks the community "what can we improve about the game?", we are always answered with "ok, but we can't do that with our small team", and it makes you wonder: why even fucking ask, if you don't have enough people to make ONE new gun?

>F2P has shattered the community
russians and BR's
nuff said

>lack of any sort of tutorial
means new people don't understand how the map modes work, and since new players always gravitate towards space marines, what this means is the forums have started calling the the adeptus retardes because of how fucking dumb that race's players end up being (also the largest played race by a mile, currently has 3-4x as many players as orks)

I could go on, but these are the main problems, game is dead in the water, infested with f2p and poor balance

Little changed since the alpha from what I saw. Stormbolter tactical spam became Chainsword assault spam became mark of nurgle spam which became melta spam which became I quit from all the flavor of the month imbalancing.

They couldn't even balance two factions properly so I don't know why they rushed out Eldar and Orks.

Dawn of War 1 and 2 were decent, so was Space Marine. It's all about respect for the source material and the understanding that 40k is simply a messy universe will of brutal shit with thousands of soldiers going at it.

Space Marine in particular got a good angle on this. Even though you played as one guy in one small-ish region, you really got the feeling that you were late to a global blitzkrieg. A bunch of the objectives made sense in that context too.

>>389832214
That's an idiotic statement, considering how terrible the melee is in EC.

Seriously, don't play this shit. it may look fun and all but you will understand in about 20 minutes of gameplay regarding the core flaws and I'm not even counting the major problem that is optimization which single handedly killed the game (Founders/Veterans leaving. It was happening before that even) Sure, Nathan will pull out his over 6 million unique logins bullshit but we all know that's marketing bullshit, You'll get matched up by the same group of people who has played this game since the early days who probably defend the game as much as they defend the devs.

Cashshop? It's all crap with nothing worth to spend on aside from the Alpha Legions which was skewed anyways to please some 16 year old Italian in which certain cosmetics were bugged but still sold in the store, generally shitty quality or lacking any cosmetics (Eldar) even then they shit out so much RTC at you they are not even trying to hide it just so they could soften the deal up. I'm not even including downgraded stuff like founders standard for LSM, the Aquila turned into a tiny one with no purity seals or as detailed like the original release. I don't even want to mention the so called content the devs promised to deliver (Not Miguel's planetside 2 dream) No Terminators, No new Maps/gamemodes even the Battlewagon they teased. They are so upfront on being an asshole on stream they even called out the biggest Ork guild in which some left the game due to bullshittery like that and nerfing the skip launcha as a "joke"
Also I just got the Death Guard Codex, feels good man
