I think if the game does well enough they will probably pump out the stuff people want, for a micro transaction of course. You know they are probably going to have a "want to play ad mech? Buy this costume, want to be a cultist? BUY THIS COSTUME!"
type of set up anyways. You cant play a game now a days without that

Serriously? No-one wants to play a sister of Battle?

Well I do. Hell yeah.

I can actually see Battle sisters as a fairly funky kind of support class with Acts of Faith that affect allies.

Spirit of the Martyr grants temporary invulnerability (or at least much-reduced damage) to allies. Divine Guidance increases allies firepower, The Passion decreases cooldown times etc.

That and I want a plasma pistol and an eviscerator!

Spikes: These are my favorite things.

Chaos Space Marines.

I'd play that. Then again I might play an Apothecary or Painboy, or whatever support makes it to the table.

The inclusion of the Sisterhood will be the ultimate make or break point for me in the end.

If Sisters are not included then I'm not even going to bother with it.

I personally hope they don't support but rather with faith become a strategic type of tank.
Faith never effects anyone other than more Sisters in tabletop and is mostly absent in fluff so how would they explain the girls suddenly giving everyone around them abilities?
Space Marines? Those Heretics don't even see the God Emperor as anything more than a wizened old grandfather.
And the Imperial Guard? Those faith-strained rabble could never understand the divine touch of the Emperor and would hardly recognise it if it were to happen to them.

HELL YES!

You've a good point, one that did occur to me (Although technically, Faith can affect Priests as well as sisters). However, it seems to me that there is a very limited role for Sisters if one remains completely true to the fluff. And believe me, it pains me to say it 'cos I love my Sisters.

Space Marines are the natural tank - Terminator Armour, Storm Shield 'nuff said.

I think in this case the fluff can stand to take one for the team and let Faith affect other units - not because they are faithful, but because she is. She's just that faithful, or inspiring, probably both. Speaking of which - I want a Book of St. Lucius which gives some sort of permanent buff to anyone within X feet of me.

Anything to avoid making Sisters into the dreaded 'Space Marine but a girl'.

The alternative is for Sisters in the game to specialize in those things that Space Marines cannot do - I could certainly stand to play a Seraphim with dual Inferno Pistols! And I daresay Ork players would learn to fear Sisters if they were the only class able to carry Heavy Flamers (which are sometimes AP1).

Ordo Hereticus all the way f i did play this.

As its likely to cost money then I won't be playing it

Crap! So you won't get to play as Tau?!

Expansions. Look at any high profile MMO of the last decade and you'll see that there will always be expansions to fill in the holes or just give people what they want.

If they gave it all away up front like the chick that played the role of village bicycle in highschool, there'd be no tread left on the tire. Err... I mean... Money left in the market. Yea.



Expansions add freshness to a game when it becomes stale, and generate additional revenue through sales that you'd miss out on if you added everything from the start.

tell me if any of you see this but in the trailer i saw a thecpreist engersire soz bad spelling but i hope you can comprehend it it was when a space marrien was moving to atack a grate unclean one

Most likely the Imperial Guard though I'll most certainly try out the other imperial factions included at launch as well.

I will play as Chaos, most likely an assault based character if possible. I jumped on the dark millennium site and saw a pretty cool picture of a bezerker with chains and ornate iconography. Makes me think Khornate characters are playable in this game. Hopefully the game is not like the WHFB MMO with only one type of chaos faction (Tzeetnch) playable, as I would like players of other chaos factions to be able to make their ideal character as well.

ORKS!

Orks, but if the Inquisition/GKs get in, I'll definatley go them.

IG - especially if i can play as a commissar - your not healing well enough BANG! you start with the dps BANG! BY THE GOD EMPEROR! BANG! stop your wailing you only need 1 hand to use that knife with!
secondary race would be SM if i can play as a apothecary or chaplain

I want to be a Space marine or Imperial Guard

Voted Imperial Guard

With the newer Trailer, It seems Imperium of Man is (Thank god) one faction.

The setting for the game (from Wikipedia) is Segmentium Tempestus, so most likely no Tau.
Nids are prolly going to be the main NPC "villains"
I doubt they aren't going to take Eldar, just because Eldar have been a major race in all of 40k.

I think the Playbles are going to look something like: Humans, Orkz, Chaos(Marines, Traitor guard and Daemons?), Eldar, and Maybe Dark Eldar.

I'll prolly play all of them at first and whittle it down to the ones I like over time ( Like I did in WAR)

Depends on classes for the other races

What is the website????
