Does anyone have any idea when it's coming out? Or even if it's still in production?

Last I checked Vigil games and THQ have the license from GW to make that game, but I don't know of any progress. Of course, my info may be a year or two old, going by memory.

If I recall correctly (the medics have me one some GOOOOOOOOD painkillers so my head is a bit fuzzy) in an article i read when the game was announced said the "hope" date was mid 2011. Again, I could be wrong, I am looking for the mag I found it in. If I am wrong, my apologies.

Thanks, marsguard. Not quite what I was hoping for, but hey. There's a new codex in May!

No kidding... i have 2 boxes fully built of Cadians with 4 more waiting for me! Plus like 9 Sentials and 4 more Heavy Weapon Boxes, who would have thought being laid up would be such a good time to hobby. Its all about looking at the bright side!

I know a bit about game production. Especially RPGs. It was announced in '07, hope date '11. Thats actually really good. I would expect that at least for a standard RPG. For an MMO, I wouldn't get your hopes up. But you never know. I believe WoW took that long when it first got released, whereas the average time spent on something like FF games is at least 4. so, '11 is a good date. Just hope its not too buggy when it comes out.

THQ has a smurf fps in the works, but it's under the hush-hush. At least I haven't seen any details recently. They had a preview, but they pulled it. You can just youtube it though.

its a 3rd person shooter and it has a loot of close combat
but they have alredy mesd up the bolter it fires like an uzi i hate to say this but the tau first person shoter hade a beter bolter witch fired like a fuley atomatick granade canon
thats somthing they would have to not screw up on is the wepons and if you arnt an ork you are ishued a wepon there would be gardsman runing around with gaus flars or fire pikes
and how would they explane a singel gardsman runing around blasting orks with a storm bolter and power fist
and y would any one chouse to be a gardsman wen they could be a SMurf
and woudent neckrons be fun the onley wepon you get is a gaus flare or even beter a termagaunt you arnt geting any beter
they might have it so as you levil up you become a sargent and have 9 standerd gardsman folowing you around and then you get to be a junyor oficer and you get a comand squad and 20 gardsman folowing you around and as you get beter the number of squads increases and once you have 5 squads you get spechel upgrades like comasars and after a wile you have sentanels folowing you around and some tanks and you bie upgrades for your unit with experance points
and to eaven it out as a SMurf you onley get one squad with you but you can upgrade them into a devastator squad or asalt squad and then give them upgrades like termanator armor and a rhino or land raider

Yeah, the bolter in that game ticked me off rightly.
"As you can see here I'm using the bolter to stun these trator guard so I can close and finish them with my chainsword."
What!? When in the hell did a bolter become a dazzler? Those trator guard should have been bloody pulp and there should have been chunks of the walls missing. Now that I think about it I don't think he ever reloaded either...

I know! I recently saw the video on the smurf fps, and he unloads two clips into the traitors, all the while saying, "you don't want to get into a mainly ranged scenario, as they'll (traitors) have an advantage." WTF? Since when were renegades better than space marines? And then he's seen clothes-lining the renegades, and they get back up. (Rant Mode Off) I think the overall concept of a warhammer 40k MMO wouldd be appealing, but as for how they'd work it, no clue.
