fitgirl has it. gameplay feels kinda dated, but with some nice additions. Looks pretty good, and the horde engine is cool, lots of baddies to shoot. Unless the pvp and online coop modes are amazing, I can’t imagine it being worth 60$, but for the price of free, i’m digging it.
No Orky boyz, not proppah.
Idk why the fuck I’d play a Space Marine game without enemies with faux cockney accents yelling “SPEHS MUHREEN!?”. Can a tyranid yell with a faux cockney accent?
It’s more Space Marine, so I dig it
Co-Op is fun, but it’s a little buggy atm
Don’t plan on touching PvP with a 10 foot touching pole though

yea got lots of tyranids
They’d never do this but I think it would be a really cool sequel if you could play this game front the Tyranid perspective.
Imagine if you played as a sort of avatar of the hive mind or a facet of it. You warp into the swarm’s command unit and fight while issuing broad instructions that directs the swarm.
Your “lives” are the amount of command units in the swarm that are available. Die once and warp out of the dead command unit and into the next up until the swarm is out of command units.
The upgrade tree would be pretty easy: you get better commands as you level up and you get auras or global unit bonuses that reflect whatever exists in the tabletop game. I guess you could probably “summon” reinforcement units from underground and get better command units as you progress too.
The game could switch between swarm battles and solo missions where you have to do things like infiltrate or by other conceits of the narrative, such as breaching through the walls of a compound with the swarm and then on the next level inside the compound there’s a terminator or something that just obliterates your underlings, leaving you to duke it out with them 1-to-1 before proceeding through the compound solo.
Having to balance between commanding, staying back and using ranged attacks, or playing as the tip of the spear would allow for different play styles and it would be challenging because you would have to adjust your strategy to be most effective.
I am so tired of playing as space marines in the world of 40k, let me be a fuckin ork or something, literally anything please god.
And not in an rts.

I think Speed Freeks is still free. Orks vs Orks combat racing game. I haven’t played in a couple months so IDK what direction its taking but last time I dropped into a game it was fun as fuck.
I read the lowest review (68/100) for this and it was basically “Game is fun, but the first game had a better campaign and more focus with more diverse gameplay because the Orks actually used tactics” which seems fair. I’ll pirate it eventually, fuck the pricing they’ve put on it.
Yeah, their horde engine is kind of only suited for mass waves of zero AI enemies. To be honest, i’m not sure its really capable of any sort of varied tactics.
It looks really cool visually but I can definitely see it getting old without variety. Gears of War kinda understood this, or at least some of those games did. I sort of see Space Marine as similar in style.
Looking forward to eventually playing it. Can’t afford it right now though.
fitgirl makes it free!
What is that?
A torrent repacker (smaller file)
It runs super choppy as shit on my rig after the first intro mission and I put it down until it seems like there’s some updates or discussions on how to fix it so I don’t feel like I’m rubber banding everywhere
I had some weird flickering in the first mission, but i quit and restarted and it all evened out. Maxed out 1440p, around 80-100 fps with a 7700x and 4070super
Eh my computer tech is a decade old, top of the line when I built it because I said I don’t want to fuck with expensive new shit for years down the line, so I think this may be a case of it simply hitting the hard wall of performance for what the hardware is capable of. I’ll probably fuck with the settings more a week or two down the line to see if it’s a software thing that gets patched by the devs or if it’s a hardware thing.
Which funny enough now that I think of it, it can run Wukong plenty fine enough, so it must be the software
Look up weapon list
8 fucking primaris bolter variants that all do the same thing
James Workshop!
Also from the bit of gameplay I saw I find it funny they’re still using the Thunderhawk since there is a new primaris-sized ship called an Overlord, but I guess because it doesn’t have a model they didn’t have permission to use it.
Can barely get a controller working on PC. You’re screwed if you wanna Steam Link stream it to a big TV.
Really? I havent had any issue with my ps5 controller.
