I did! Around the :39 mark:
This is the greatest Space Marine or Warhammer 40k related footage I have ever seen. I would like you to do the intro for Space Marine 2: Heretical Boogaloo.

I dig how in a setting where giant, muscled fungus men ride Mad Max cars and use their own teeth as currency, the concept of little engineering dudes with beards was considered a step too far down the aisle of silliness.

If GW put as much effort into writing rules as I do into making Dawn of Awesome cartoons, I doubt 40k would last more than a year. It would make for a hilarious ride, straight down.

If its multiplayer, I'll kvetch that it really should have been packaged with the awesome, yet fairly insubstantial, original retail release. The campaign was fun, but short. Multiplayer was, and continues to be, fun but short on novelty after the sixth game.
If its singleplayer... well then, now we may be getting somewhere.
Riddle me this: what has four sides, moves twelve inches, and moved fourteen?

Then you wouldn't have the actual game until now. Games development is literally 'this is what we have the time and budget for, this is what will be worked on for the retail game, if we can't get it all done, stuff will be cut, if we get done early, we polish the gak out of what we have'. Anything that gets added outside of that, ready at launch or not, is held back for DLC, because it's being done by different people on different budgets and timelines, and needs to make money outside of the games retail launch.

Finally, finally, a face to put to that feth awful meme.
I'm not at the root of it really; there were videos drawing attention to the awful Soulstorm voice acting before I made the first Dawn of Awesome, I just propagated it and spread it around a LOT. I can think of worse memes though!
From the screenshot posted, I'm assuming the dreadnought is a multiplayer component, tied into the Chaos horde mode. Considering there's a raptor in white armor in that screenshot, that's obviously someone's multiplayer character since
A. There are no white armored Marines in the campaign, Chaos or Imperial.
B. There are no raptors in the single player game either, IIRC.

Yeah, but Exterminatus wasn't around at launch, and the old trailers showed Titus or some other Ultramarine charging one. They just got added in months after release so I'm not sure it really counts in this case.

Wasn't it planned to be, but just got delayed and wasn't ready? Yeah it seems to have changed quite a bit from the origional trailers, which looked to be squad based all the time, rather than Titus running about on his own half the time.

Yep, the game changed a lot from trailer to trailer. At once point it was going to be a more RPG like co-op game, and it's a shame we missed out on that. I'm sure there's good reasons why things didn't end up that way, but it bums me out that we got a good game instead of a great game.
