Thus, After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men are seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd

Yes.

trick to hard is pulling out of combo's early and dodging out right after executes,
attack attack stun or charge -> shoulder throw -> execute dodge

you're really pushing your luck if you do a full attack combo
also squigs are nuts, lol

From what I can tell, this game is going to be everything I wanted from it and more.

I played it on Xbox it was soooo much fun. I swear I have waited for this game to come out for so long and now I don't think I can stand the final week. I love the jump pack level as it really felt amazing and gave you a sense of invincibility. They were right in the videos though that combat does feel like the natural place to be. Some of those executions, esp. with the power axe, were just sick!

BT uses the Codex Astartes as toilet paper. They’re an Imp Fist successor, recruit from multiple planets, and are known to be the largest Chapter in the galaxy. They’re on a constant Crusade, keeping it real for the Emperor and not bumming around like the other guys. They hate psykers and can’t ally with them. They’re basically an entire chapter of Chaplains. CC lunatics. What every Space Marine should aspire to be, if not trapped in a Matt Ward nightmare.

I haven't bought a full price game on release in .. years?

I just bought this based on the jump pack missions.

It's so awesome.

Loved it! Great flow from shooting to close combat. I was a little worried that it wouldn't live up to expectations, but it delivered. Pre-ordered.

Did anyone else think the Orks didn't sound very Orky?

I think this is like the 4th thread about the game in this forum

Played through it about 7 times on PC, 4 times on xbox now so far. Obviously I'm enjoying it

Collectors edition is on order.

Orks could sound orkier, I agree; but I don't mind much. They might not have all the sound files in there for the orks to say, since its just the demo.

Gathering the Informations.

If you listen closely, it sounds like they dubbed over the Orks' speech patterns to make them sound more 'proper' and understandable.
