Hey guys,

Just caught this on N4G's newsfeed, I haven't seen it before, seems to be half footage from the previous trailer and half new stuff featuring flying vehicle set-pieces.

Pretty cool overall, sorry if this has been posted before, I must have missed it if it was!

Hmmm...

I think we've seen that one before, actually!

Still, it is rather cool, thought he bolter as SMG is odd, but probably necessary given the SM vs. hordes feel here.

I do like that the Marines are able to do the things they 'should' be able to do, according to the background!

Ah sorry about that then, N4G had it as new, and I don't remember seeing the ork flyers before but I probably just missed it around E3 -

Bolters are not as I imagined them to be back in the day, but they are consistent with Relic's treatment of them as SMGs in the DOW series? I am pretty sure as you say they had to be tweaked a bit to accommodate movie marines, which suits me fine! Just wish they still stitched a line of mini explosions and gibbed the targets despite the rate of fire!

Though it has been posted before - I get hyped up and enjoy it every time I see it.

Yeah seen that trailer before but its still very cool.. Its sad that 40k the tabletop game really makes space marines feel extremely weak compared to even average guardsmen

16% tougher and stronger!! which is the difference between a couch potato and a guy who goes to the gym once a week

Heh - good one!

This game should be fun, IF it can avoid feeling too repetitive - which I'm sure they'll attempt to avoid via different marines and boss battles/set pieces.

Relic hasn't done much in the fps genre iirc, let's hope they take that very advice!

P.s I'm 16% stronger when caffeinated, If I went to the gym more often too would that make me a Primarch lol?

Oh and also 100% better armor. Stop yer whining.

I think I'll use that dude with the heavy bolter, I think its one of the coolest 40k weapons, plus in a video game it should be epic.

That's the E3 trailer I think. Pretty old news.

Ya my bad, it popped up as new on N4G tonight... should probably just lock her up, sorry for the false hopes boys!
