This looks like WAR reskinned, I'm sorry to say.
4 classes per race: melee DPS, ranged DPS, healer, tank
race-specific classes, mirrored
2 factions: order and "disorde…
Originally posted by grawss Oh look, Warmaster is using the same argument he always does, claiming that a Space Marine is going to walk into an Eldar craftworld and open a trade window with a Warlock to get some new armor and weapons. After all, tha…
Originally posted by grawss I never said nor speculated anything was going to be in the game. The argument was, at its base, whether or not an alliance of enemies (ie Eldar and IoM) would fit into the game and overarching plot. My response was mean…
Originally posted by Rohn I agree. They are still in pre-production on WoD, so I was also thinking 2014 or 2015 at the earliest before this announcement.
Now, I think it's about a 50/50 shot at 2016/2017, and the game being cancelled outright.

Was World of Darkness going to be a sandbox game ? Pity would have helped the current crop. I wonder how games that don't charge subs will fare …
I know they're not cancelling WoD but it's dissapointing none the less. A lot of people are interested in that game. Especially, with the concepts the developers are tossing around as a direction they want to go with the game.
They said they…
The slow-mo executions wouldn't work in an mmo setting. full speed executions....now I'm on board.
While I can't say the space marine game is without flaw, I can say it was damn fun and the fighting style would work quite nicely in an mmo setting…
Originally posted by Kabaal It's only legit as in it's on the official site, but a date that far away is clearly just a rough guesstimate.
I remember awhile back reading in one of their interviews/financial reports that they were shooting for a…

Originally posted by cheshyrecat I'm curious as to what reviews you've read that paint Space Marine as being just 'Ok'?
Metacritic
77 out of 100 is just okay? fair enough. I can't argu…

I think WAR40 will be "okay" but like RIFT or any other game.
But based on it's gaming history, I don't think it's going to garner more than fans overall when it's said and done.
That said, there are a lo…
I'm curious how they'll award advancements/exp if not by killing mobs or questing.
Hopefully they can figure figure out a mechanic for awarding xp through non-combat methods.
Good interview.
I'm pleased they're going to include diableri and generation instead of levels. I'm also, happy they're going to be moving away from the concept of grinding.
Definately sounds promising. Though I'm certain alot of peopl…
Also considering that THQ isn't exactly a huge company with massive financial reserves, they're going to be limited on how much money they can pour into this project.
This is their first foray into the mmo market. If this game is even mildly succ…
Holy wall of text batman!
I agree with the logic of your wall o' statement though. It's far more financially feasible to start small with only a few races/factions. This allows for a greater level of detail and development than if they had 5…

I hope it will be a hybrid to give causual players a chance.
They said in the article that they would include themepark and sandbox styles of play.
just playing devil's advocate here, but it seems that real history and the books released by GW support the 2v2 setting.
Are there conflicting sub factions in the overall 2 main factions...sure. But, they're sub-factions and they still suppor…
From what I read it sounds like they're going to include aspects of theme park mmos but the main thrust is going to be sandbox. Which is to say yes, they'll have some quests but like EVE most of the content will be player generated.
Since the…
