    It looks...ok.

    I know it's still in super early development but it looks like Gears of Space Marine.

    Also, when the fuck will developers get the fact that while, yes, a space marine is a super human fighting machine, he fights as part of a unit?

    I want a squad based 40k game thats a cross between GRAW and Gears. That would be the best thing ever.

    Sounds good on paper but how will you sell it to people. How will you say "Hey this is different".

    I don't want "hey this is different"

    I want "hey this is an accepted formula, but look at the awesome world it's set it. Lets go kill some xenos."

    If I get acceptable squad based combat with it.

    Yes.

    Oh god, this is going to come out so nerdy but I might as well say it. Bolters, as far as I know, don't work that way. Where is the rapid-fire explosive round mancannon?

    And as far as I could tell it was not a bolt pistol.

    And the only chapter that fires bolters one handed is the space wolves.

    And the marine was clearly in Ultramarie colors, so for him to be firing a bolter one handed is quite strange.

    Also, I'm not quite sure that he would be able to shrug off hits from what looked like a Word Bearers marine that easily. I would say that chaos marines are always a match if not better, due to chaos stuff, than regular marines.

    I could go on and on with the list of things that are wrong here.

    Oh, I just assumed from the pistol+sword loadout that the marine in question was a veteran or sergeant. And um, they do use bolt-pistols one handed :X.

    Only high ranking commissars get bolt pistols

    Most of them still have las pistols.

    Commisars are human.

    I'm surprised the bolt pistols don't break their arms.

    Also speaking of commisars.

    That third person 40K game looks fantastic

    it seems like it's Gears of War: Space Marine, with more focus on melee combat

    which is just about perfect for me

    the open ruleset is a bit fucked right now

    basically, WAR turns high level people who are flagged for PvP into chickens if they wander into lower level zones

    and right now, in open ruleset servers, you're always flagged, which means that higher level people will never get to visit lower level zones, ever, without turning into a chicken

    Yeah i read that the other day and posted my gripes in the WAR thread that is in the gnt mmo subforum.

    it is a shame, because, getting ganked and ganking adds to the fun of a pvp server

    you spend your entire lower levels running away or getting ganked by higher levels.

    you get higher, go back to those zones and return the favor, all in good fun
