Haha this thread was read 666 times at one point. That's kind of creepy. Anyway i was playing a bit of space marine and just finished it. I saw a walkthrough on youtube and that ruined the story and parts for me but it's still a really fun game. Still might get back to starcraft 2 and sadly something tells me even with a horde mode (exterminatus?) there's not much to keep one playing and going back to it. That's actually kind of sad as this game seems pretty fun. I wonder what the sync kills with the power sword were like. Hopefully they didn't just show rehashed versions of the power axe. One of my favorite kill syncs is when you take the power axe and stab it into a nob's foot and then rip out his big tooth. The first time i did that i remember him saying "My tooth!" or similar. I was honestly pretty shocked by that kill sync. It wasn't graphic so much as interesting and kind of funny.
From what i've learned of the game meltaguns are freaking awesome, plasma guns are good against orks but i'm not so sure against chaos marines, most chaos marines are best killed at range with a lascannon shot to the face as are chaos psykers and blight drones are more easily killed with lascannon and storm bolter fire whereas plasma guns are just too slow. I wouldn't mind seeing some pain dealt with the autocannon and you actually get it twice trooper or at least to my knowledge. You get the autocannon the first time when sidonius dies and you defend his corpse. When you're facing the chaos forces if you go to the right to a barricade you should find an autocannon but i barely got to use that one myself sadly. I did use the other one in the big battle with all the space marines though.
Also just wondering how's everybody doing on the achievement hunting? I regret asking but i've got about 44 out of 48 servo skulls. I know that's a big "so what" but i've almost got em all with one playthrough. Thankfully they tell you which chapters you're missing them from. Doing all of part 1 on hard without dying or restarting is going to be tough though. I don't know if i can do that. I'll see if i can get some of the kill achievements but i don't feel like doing the part 1 or restricted weapon use achievements. I probably will do the restricted weapon achievements at some point but it could get really annoying.

That's better than the re-skinned exterminatus.

I'd still rather we got a horde mode where it's 4v12. The 12 playing as Orks/IG/Chaos.

Just have an idiot mode a child would make up where you have 4 dreadnoughts facing a bunch of chaos marines with a life pool that can be used up except with each being player controlled teams .

Well...I played the new Dreadnought mode today.
And despite the misery of having to pay for it, it's pretty good! Once the dreadnought's been spawned, the game turns into carnage!
Some flaws however include that it seems to be spawned on a random player. I was the only one in the capture point zone, I was then joined by a few others. Despite being the first, when we captured it the Dreadnought was given to another player!! I was furious. Also, it kept picking the same player annoyingly.
One more thing.......I think that because it's so epic, the rest of the game modes are pretty much redundant. There's no one on them!
Overall, a great new mode, leaving the other modes empty.

I'm also playing Company of Heroes again if you'd prefer that...

I too loved this game and also the fact that a space marine captain can wade his way through ten orks in melee combat, this is true (er) to the space marine lore than the actual 40k table top balance. A space marine chapter should be like the 300 facing the million strong! im usually picky about videogame mechanics etc etc but with this one I didn't mind it was a button masher because every time you mash the button it gives you satisfaction! lol

Threadromancy... but:
I've just found the 'private' setting in the game lobby... would anyone want to re-visit this game and face some wave assaults... I really want to face the killa kans on wave 20 but can't get through the earlier waves alone.
I think it'll require assault marines with power axes or thunder hammers but tacticals or devastators might be able to do it too. (the assault marines can evade, regroup, replenish and re-launch their attacks by use of cowardly hiding on the upper flanks of the map)

Are you playing on PC or a console? Paimon and I both have it installed, and I might be able to talk Kommissar Orren into reinstalling.

I have it on PC...
I played with sarrowquand the other day and believe he may be more tempted if there were a few of us.
I know cosmic also liked the game a fair bit.
I have the chaos unleashed expansion but not the dreadnought pack (i could be tempted it people were keen).
It'd be great to coop play with a team rather than 4 individuals!

is it worth trying to organise a specific time / date for a MP game... or shall I just send a reminder on steam when I see there are a few of us on?
