I still play Space Marine extensively, but it seems that no one plays it anymore. Especially my old favorite: Dreadnaught Assault. What are your thoughts on the game. And do you see a sequel?

I haven't played it in a while.... haven't played Dreadnought Assault yet at all, sadly.

I tried on PC then my game crashed. I don't have DLC and don't have even many of the multiplayer unlocks.

Played it on PC until about 2-3 weeks ago, just to get into the right mood for a Deathwatch game.
MWO has been detracting me more and more since then, tho ...

Sucks that the game isn't cross-platform compatible. Would have been nice to fight with or against a few dakkanauts.

Still playing it (badly). The server system sucks so bad, tho, I usually quit after 10 minutes to go get my FPS fill out of Team Fortress 2.

And never tried Dreadnought Assault. Wouldn't either, it only encourages the producer to keep making piece-meal games.

Dreadnought Assault is fun, I only wish there would be more game modes that were somewhat "different". And very, very few people seem to play it. Takes much less time to find a game of territory control.

One of the biggest criticisms I have on multiplayer gameplay is that it sometimes feels so damn unresponsive. Like when you die because a lascannon bolt hits the wall where you were standing several heartbeats ago...

... still, 't was fun. And I got a good screenshot for my DW character.

Anyone want to play Dreadnought Assault on the 360? I've been wanting to play but seems like no one does :(

Was just on it not half an hour ago, getting blasted out of the air whilst ineffectually swinging a chainaxe over my head.

I'm no good but gosh it's fun.

I WOULD play them if I could...

out of the dozens of times I qued for dreadnaught, only ONCE did it actually find a game...

it was AWESOME... so much fun... killing a dread, being a dread... how is it not more popular I dont know...
WTF but now I cant even find any on line games, for any expansion...

either the netcode is botched or no one plays anymore... which sucks I still find the game mechanics quite fun.

Part of the problem with SM was the lack of actual servers, and more than a few bugs. The game itself was and is fun, but the technical side is wanting.

I have this really fun glitch which kicks in now and then where the audio stutters and the performance drops into unplayable levels, and there's pretty much nothing you can do about it save for wait until it "fixes" itself some time later. As in days, or weeks.

Still, when it's not infuriatingly broken, the game is pretty solid and I enjoy playing it, I do hope it has a future, rather than these shovelware titles GW is keen to license these days...

Therefore, I conclude, Valve should announce Half Life 2: Episode 3.
