Slaanesh should be the one that decreases cool down timer or design in that it increases length. Go along with the heighten Init. that Slaanesh marks give.


Maybe make in a second campaign? One Loyal one Traitor? This would allow you to change up what enemies are included in the game.

Like, I would feel bad about myself for spending money on what I thought was a WH40K game, but ended up being Devil May Cry but with a ninja-clown-elf as the protagonist.




Hey, for me Harlequins are a living embodiment of what 40K is: Ludicrous, horrific (I mean, hello? A weapon that rotor-blends a man's insides into soup and a gun that fires tiny discs laced with a poison that causes every single blood-cell in the target to explode are the two most gloriously 'effed-up weapons in the 40K fiction), and utterly badass at the same time.

Yeah, Relic and GW already stated a few months back they have no plans to make a sequel. Space Marine for both companies, not so much a great game as they hoped, not a good seller according to the reps.

Laziness is no excuse.

I like the Eldar idea, a fresh lens for 40k always rejuvenates the universe IMO.

Personally, since if Relic and GW were ever to return to a bash'em'up title like SM, I'd like to see the main character be allied with Chaos -not the Imperium - if there was no choice to be made. He/She must choose between the 4 Chaos Gods (and choosing 1 over the rest offends the others depending on the rivalry) while Chaos undivided allows you to use all the God's favor - but must do so with balance.

There are so many fantastic story lines that can be told from the opposing (or even a xenos) viewpoint it's incredible to me that it hasn't been marketed before, and only used as a sidebar. I guess the main reason is because of the reception of Soulstorm, when each race has about equal footing in the story. Yes, Space Marines are the poster boys of GW, but still, if you want a truly hated enemy to deepen the plot of a AAA title, there must always be something for the audience to enjoy about the side of evil.

My buddies and me on XBOX Live wish they'd do another just so that bitch Leandros could get what awaits him on Macragge. He gripes about violating the Codex Astartes, yet forgets that the Marines are ABOVE the Imperial Law, and as such can only be judged by their brethren and Master of the Chapter. He's gonna get mind-scrubbed and turned into a servitor for sure.

Laziness is no excuse.

I'm sorry dude but a murder/sacrifice game might be a tough sell. Please keep in mind everyone, video games and GW products are bought primarily by children. I'm not gonna start some 1980s "D&D is evil!" Nonsense, but come on.

Guess Red hasnt played Skyrim, Oblivion, (really any bethesda title) The Cawadoodies, Rainbow Six, Dynasty Warriors, Darksiders, Tomb Raider... Borderlands.... this list goes on and on. All games nowadays are extremely violent, graphic with language and drug/alkie refs, and sexuality. It DOES suck, but the world keeps revolving down. You are not gonna come up on good, wholesome games much, keyword MUCH, anymore. Especially not a Space Marine game, I mean, the Marines' DUTY is to sacrifice self for a greater Imperium, and lets not even get into Chaos.... ugh... slaanesh.... and have you READ about Commisars? Dont turn around, der Kommisar might shoot you for cowardice.

I don't see how anyone can say, with a serious face, that they would even WANT a game set in the WARHAMMER 40K UNIVERSE to not have excessive violence. That would be like trying to make an MLP game that's filled with excessive violence and cursing.

Could a sequel have something to do with the end bit where they are contemplating what to do with Titus?

Titus got betrayed guyperson5, and you can bet if Relic ever does another one he'll give Leandros's sorry ass some retribution.
