Looking pretty awesome.
Shame it's not on pc -_-
Well, that gives some hope to that it's not yet another Dune 2 clone but actually something new and fresh. Maybe not FPS but a camera placed behind the character like Gears of War...that could work.

Um, Niklas? I'm pretty sure some of that trailer is actual ingame footage.
I don't see a HUD or anything telling you that it is ingame. Also, when it is the developers seem to be very good at telling this in the beginning of the movie to point out how good they are. :)
In this case I think the movie is a teaser of the mood and story of the game and not how it will look. To me the movie is like any movie from Blizzard. Fun to watch but includes no ingame material what so ever...
...but we'll see, maybe I'm wrong and you will play with a camera flying around the battlefield showing you from behind, sides, infront and sometimes going away looking at something totally different! :lol:
Hey, I think this is a video for the same game: http://games.tiscali.cz/news/news.asp?id=29130&r=top (scroll to the bottom for the video).
Isn't this something like God of War? That's the impression I've got.
If they ever bring this on PC, it'll provide me a nice excuse to upgrade my old computer.

It's 3rd person over the shoulder, there was a video a few months back that was leaked, which was a test.
This video is a mix of gameplay and cutscenes, the games meant to have lots of "movie" moves which act out like scenes from 300 I imagine.

The video leaked before was from a different project. Which was canceled. We don't have any detailed information about this new incarnation of the game.
I know that in the video I saw, the bolter was the most pathetic firearm i've seen. it sounded like a toy, and did next to nothing to chaos cultists. there's something really wrong there.:thumbdown:

i dont really care im gonna ripem apart with my chainsword and plasma pistol and as for it not doin nuthin its gotta be balanced if it were up to 40k standards the only worthy enemy would be chaos and orks and necrons

One on one, Space Marines are vastly superior than 95% of their foes in the 40K universe. The balance comes from the fact that most other foes outnumer Space Marines by 100 to 1...

I heard someone else talking about this before. they had the idea to just make the bolter as it should be, and increase the number of enemies. sounds reasonable enough, and it's truer to way most conflict goes in 40k.:fighting:

I think the ONLY game to show what the bolter is actually like was Fire Warrior on Pc/PS2, it was basically a mini missile that exploded and it could even rapid fire two shots in quick sucession, was less accurate but good!
Oh and the Chaos Marine Bolter SCREAMED when it fired. Awesome.
it'd be cool if someone would make another firewarrior game. if that's even possible. i don't know, i just liked the plasma rifle.:tongue:

Sounds about right given how the Bolter and Storm Bolters have been descrived and depicted over the years by GW.
Slightly OT, but does anybody remember the Chaos Marines with Sonic Blasters (i.e. electric guitars). What mad amount of crack where GW on when they not only came up with idea, but also turned them into actual models? :D

The sonic blasters don't look like guitars anymore, but they're still there.

Really? I thought they'd go the way of Squats. Seriously, Space Dwarfs on Trikes mounting big, fat Multi-Meltas. It doesn't get better than that. :thumbsup:

Now they also have the Doom Sirens and Blastmasters - both based on the same tech as Sonic Blasters. :p
Thank god for that the SH branch of the 40K has been free from these odd ideas. :blink:

those are servants of the lust god, slaanesh. they do COCAAAINEE and like to have sex with stuff. as for the crack GW was on, I don't know. it coulda been that it was just a random idea that someone had at a meeting, and it survived long enough to be a legitimate model.

:w00t:
i dunno... maybe that would also be something for me to work on...think about it, a space marine ship trapped in the warp and under attack from daemons and traitor marines. but i wonder, would it be fun to play as chaos?

hell id enjoy a remake of fire warrior im the type of gamer who will see nothing but goodness emanating from a game until somebody points out a fault and i played fire warrior long before i was hooked on the lore then after i played fire warrior being a massive 40k fan i thought mmmm that shouldn't be right whats this imperial laser rifle hurting me for why are the marines striking up an alliance with the XENOs to fight the chaos when they could blow that daemon back to the warp what there ordering the destruction of a titan at the hands of XENOs and telling him where to set charges
a remake would be leet of course or maybe entirely different setting maybe through the eyes of a guards men
actually, if i remember correctly (meaning i'm most likely wrong) Kais was interred in a mental asylum of sorts at the end of Fire Warrior. I imagine after the events in Fire Warrior, Kais would have some sort of residual warp taint, making him a person of interest to chaos. naturally, they would probably attack the planet Kais currently resides, leading to what I would assume as being less of a shooty game like the first Fire Warrior, and more of a survival thing like the first third of Half-Life, where all you have is some improvised close combat thing, a gun you got off a dead guard, and craploads of unholy beasts/ chaos space marines wanting to drag you away for some nefarious reason.
I would say that I'd worship GW for releasing that, but I've kinda been disappointed by what 40k is these days.:'(

Not lust. Perfection and perversion.
they do COCAAAINEE
Compared to the stuff they actually do, cocaine is about as harmless as salt is to cocaine.
and like to have sex with stuff.
More along the lines of "anything that moves (and some things that don't)".
