Good bye life. D:

WARHAMMER MMO AND IT LOOKS 'oh MAMA!





Vehicle warfare oh gawd' look at the copter and the bikes! Khorne Berzerkers!










Posted this incase people miss out on the previous <link>

I'm so happy right now.. That bit of combat shown with the over the shoulder cam ala Gears.

IMMENSE!

And the scale of everything, HUUUUUGE!

Yeah... You know Warhammer games always have awesome trailers.

And hey, let us not forget how WoW trailers looked.

I... wow...

Lets hope it works and isn't another WH:O...

And it does look as someone said to me "a lot like WoW but more wow". And thats not a bad thing. WoW does a lot of stuff very well... but this is fecking Warhammer 40K...

MY CHILDHOOD!

WOOP!

Plus, well, Gruff could always be born again as an Ork Mek or something...

IG do look like a playable race from that, and yes, they would be my calling kinda. That or a crazed psyker. Or ... though nothing of them ... *sniffle* Eldar.

I care not for FMV's, the reason im happy is because there's gameplay in there (in a manner of speaking)

Game play looks differant to other mmo's so I probaly will give it a try

And also Skarre, nice painting!

I want will have to be an ork they look great or the warhound titan not fussed

and thanks Grufftoof

Whilst I'm one of the biggest Warhammer fanboys around I'm still skeptical.

I can see Spess Mehreens being massively overplayed and we all know it's going to happen. I'm also not a massive fan of the very, very cartoony approach they're taking. I could forgive it in WAR because it was very gritty but this just looks like a bloody saturday morning cartoon.

Anyway I sincerely hope that the Eldar are playable - You can have Imperials, Chaos and Orcs without the circle being completed by them.

From the offical website:

On the very edge of the galaxy lies the Sargos Sector. For centuries it was rendered uninhabitable and isolated by volatile Warp Storms. Even now, deep within the sector the very fabric of reality is unraveling. Only the ancient Sentinel Devices hold the Warp at bay.

But the ravages of time and meddling of humanity have weakened the Sentinel Devices-and now, the battle for these ost worlds is at hand. Drawn to the conflict, the great races of the galaxy descend upon the Sargos Sector, seeking to preserve reality-or to tear it asunder.

Side with the forces of Order, or the vile hosts of Destruction, in a war that will unlock ancient secrets, reveal dark purposes, and determine the fate of the Sargos Sector. For in this dark millennium, there is no peace amongst the stars, only an eternity of carnage and slaughter.


Order? Destruction? Oh no, I hope we aren't thrown into two factions..

Eldar and Tau are not officially in war with the Imperium and they are known to join forces when they face the common enemy (for reference the last 4 Black Crusades and the Nids` for the Tau and Talaarn) so it is plausible to say they will join forces to preserve the fabric of reality against the forces of Chaos and etc.

Order and Destruction?

So it is the same as WHO...

*groan*

Aargh...areaghbh.... AAAARGH! .... oh' mama!

Terminators... Space Hulks and Tyranids.. that's all I want..

Unless they put some inquisition & interesting story there...

No, thank you.

Needs more Ordo Malleus and Grey Knights.

Heheh...that alliance was dissolved the moment the last Nid died and the two faction resumed fighting each other pretty much immediately. Oh, and the Imperial forces present were actually reinforcements for the Damocles Crusade that took place 150 years earlier. Warp can distort time in an amusing way, eh?
(Side note: The hive fleet they fought was awesome incarnate. It was evolution on crack even compared to regular hive fleets. Examples:
1) Swarm shipyards with gargoyles. Problem: Too heavy interceptor fire. Solution: Deploy gargoyles with a protective layer of mucus that makes them resistant to the interceptor fire.
2) Use hormagaunts against the first line of defence that is composed of Kroot auxiliaries deployed in a heavily forested area. Problem: The hormagaunts are getting entangled in the forest's undergrowth and then getting cut down by the Kroot. Solution: Deploy slimmer and swifter hormagaunts that are better suited to fight in the environment.
3) The next line of defence is a force of Firewarriors. Problem: Heavy fire is making it difficult for the gaunts to advance. Solution: Deploy gaunts that are pretty much immune to pulse-rifle fire.
Etc, etc.)

FOR CHAOS!

FUCK FUCKING FUCK. THATS NOT HOW 40K WORKS. FUCK THIS GAME.

"Order" and "Destruction" worked fine for WAR, but it'd be a gigantic lore-lol in 40k. Temporarily joining forces for a single battle twice every century is one thing, but even that could easily get the heads of Imperial commanders rolling for "cooperating with Xeno filth". A full-scale alliance between any two species is practically unthinkable, 40k is a FFA-world like that.

However... what caught my eye is that trailer had no Eldar, Dark or otherwise, no Tau, no Necrons, no Tyranids, only Chaos, Orks and various Imperial factions. It might make sense to make the game two-sided by putting together the Guard, the Astartes, the Sororitas, and the various Ordos of the Inquisition on one side, with Chaos and a rogue or manipulated Ork Waaagh on the other.

Needless to say, it would be rather... disappointing.
