We're running a Q&A with Relic for Space Marine and we want your questions!

Any questions that you have for the developers about Space Marine simply post in this thread.
You've got until Tuesday 23rd August 5pm GMT to get your questions in when we'll then collate the best questions and send them over to Relic to answer.

Once we have the answers we'll post back the full Q&A here.

Matchmaking in Multiplayer ?
Mod Support ?
Customizable Hud/FoV/console commands/PC control options?
Dedicated Servers ?

What are your plans for adding new game types to matchmaking? Will there be a lot of new modes added in the coming weeks and months? How high are the ranks and how long does it take to reach the top?

Clan or Group support?

Is a multiplayer demo coming out?

I'll just throw in the basics

How long is the campaign (in hours)?

Is there any form of coop in game?

How many multiplayer maps will be available at launch?

How long will the multiplayer matches typically last?

Are there options for LAN games?

Are there any plans for DLC content? If so, can you say anything about what kind?

There is armor customization in the game for multiplayer. How expansive will this feature be for players?

Will there be split screen multiplayer?

Will more weapons be added in the future? (Power Claws, Power Fists etc)

Will there be dedicated servers for the PC? If not, why?

Dedicated servers or P2P?

That will decide if the game succeeds in multiplayer IMO.

Dedicated servers is the way to go.

No reason it can't be P2P + Dedicated Servers.

played both levels of the demo today, and holy crap is this game fun.

EDIT: I guess these aren't really questions as much as requests, please let me change graphic/control settings from inside the gameplay.

DLC? If so what kind, mulitplayer maps, more game modes?

PC mod support?

Dedicated servers?

These are the burning questions we need to know!

Will we be seeing more games with the same characthers, And how dose th main characther of the game fit in with the curret fluff of Ultra Marines?

Will we be getting DLC soon after relase, or will we have to wait long?

So many questions that have already been answered, hmm.

Has split-screen multi-player been answered yet?

Should the game be successful, will there be a sequel? If so, would it stay as an ultramarine game, or another chapter?

Yep, won't have it unfortunately.

Any chance of getting Techmarines/Dark Mechanicus for a fourth class?

Seriously what the feth, I feel like I wasted my money buying an X-Box 360 I can't even play video-games with my friends when I have them over at my place.

Yea, I'm not too happy about it either. But since they haven't even confirmed campaign coop...

Mod support?

Dunno about support, but the game's already been modded and only the demo's out. We'll see how easy it is for the main game to be modded.

Co-op has been practically Confirmed Post launch

But that doesn't mean it's campaign co-op.

Oh, I know SOME KIND of coop is coming, but I don't think its campaign.

5-player cleanse/horde/firefight mode is my guess from what I've read so far.

Personally, I'd rather have horde style coop than campaign coop. I can play campaign on my own.

*crosses fingers* Please let it be horde coop. It's the only thing that made Gears 2 worth the money I paid for it XD

Well, admittedly they already leaked it some time ago with that kind of mode. It was taken down off of the Steam page a short time later though.

5 player 'cleanse mode' coop. That is what it said, so take from that what you will.

Pretty sure it will include Tyranids and you survive as long as possible.

I don't care if its nids or green-skins ill kill em' all and look damn good doing it

Here's the big one

can you tell us any more about the planned 5 person co-op mode for day 30 dlc


How many sales do you need to get permission for space marine 2? (( ))

Feature request: different sensitivities for zoomed and unzoomed, i dont know the rest of you guys but i want my close combat camera cranked into orbit and my FPS rather low.

Any plans on Space Marine: The Last Stand?
