What? No. Where the hell did you get that idea?
There will be purchasable DLC (armor skin packs, etc) down the road, but other than that it's all gravy.

Anyone figured out how to throw grenades, and make the ones from the grenade launcher explode? Also, is there anyway to crouch or get cover??

they actuallly previewed the game on x-play (a gaming show) a while back and the producers said that cover would be almost pointless in the games as you are suppused to be akin to a walking battle tank. My question is what happens when you fight other battle tanks? (multiplayer)

Definately the PC version so I can play at work.

Not to mention I 'work' graphics for a living so I'd love to MOD this game... like I do to every other game I play. I'm waiting for 2012-13 though.

chaos0xomega, feel free to add me but include mention of dakka in the message or I will decline.

Honestly, why limit yourself to just one faction/chapter? It has a customizer with several billion potential combos... and I don't think that includes potential color variations/post release DLC...

actually it does include the color combinations. I do have to say im glad they named the colors after the citadel paints but im upset to see the lack of inquisition involvement in the looks. No GK models at all or inquisitor outfits. That would be ahem...... Divine lol

To answer your question, you throw grenades by hitting Q (it actually throws with just the right amount of force to hit exactly where you aim, not much bouncing), you detonate the sticky grenades by pressing R with the launcher out, and no, you can't crouch behind cover, because you're a fething SPACE MARINE. You can, however, do a seemingly impossible dodge roll with the space key. Don't ask me how a marine does that, he just can.

The demo is freaking amazing, by the way. I was weary about spending the money (especially after books for college kicked my ass) but the gameplay alone is well worth the $50 price tag. They did a really nice job of making you able to transition between shooting and assaulting.

I just played the demo, it was AWESOME

The shooting was gears of war-ish

But the melee is what makes it completely unique
