Pet me.
I absolutely love the Warden playstyle. I played this for way more than I thought I would during the beta. There's so many loving games out there though, I give it a month or two before people stop playing this. If i'm right, it'll be a shame considering I've been waiting for this game for about a year and a half.

It'll be like Warhammer Space Marine all over again. Except this multiplayer is actually good

Checks out. The whole Warhammer franchise is based off spending hours painting tiny mans to perfection after all.

The Space Marine campaign was ok for a trip I thought. The MP though was.... not so good :(

Doubtful. It was pretty much the same through nearly every day of the Open Beta. We'd get clubbed to hell at night, then I'd wake up and we'd be in control again, or drat near.

Just seems to be an outcome of who's playing in what time zones.

Last night the Samurai were kicking the living hell out of everyone.

I think it's a product of the short campaign since this was only a 4 day beta. Presumably over 3 months the swings will even out a bit.

When NA goes to bed EU takes over, and I think its a fairly safe assumption Knights are most popular there.

At least going by that faction war website thing I saw through facebook, Canada is almost all Viking :black101:

It's kind of a dumb article but they're not wrong that it's probably worth paying attention when it's used and how it's used because much like people who use swastikas in games frequently aren't actually being ironic at all, there is an actual correlation to lovely people :v:

This is why revenge mode is a bad idea in the duel gametype

Yeah I honestly don't get why it procs in 1v1s. Mainly because its existence just means the optimal strategy for anyone that has been blocked a bunch is to just run away until their revenge meter backs down. Not very interesting.

Captain Beans posted:

How is it even possible to generate enough meter in a 1v1 to get revenge?

Its happened to me against people really good at blocking. I play Berserker so you're throwing out a ton of attacks constantly. I want to keep the pressure up, I mean that's the whole point of the class, but it can feed someone revenge mode. So if I'm playing optimally I would instead just break lock on and sprint around the map for 30 seconds so they lose all their revenge meter, then go back to hitting them.

VVVV Some of them are open areas you can easily run around. It depends on the map.

Yeah but at least running away isn't going to get you far in a 1v1 because the areas are quite small, you will run into a dead end.

I didn't get in on the beta, but this looks like something I could put a few hours into. I hope the learning curve is somewhat managable.

Can someone explain how modern DLC works? If I get access to all future content for free, why buy a season pass?

Right now Steam tells me 23 hours which would put it at approximately 9:00 PM PST (my time zone). Which is... probably too late to be useful so yeah basically Tuesday lol.

What's the cheapest you US folks have seen a PC key for? My go to only has keys for Europe and $60 for this is a bit steep.

Also I'm not sure what happened to the raider, but I've been playing since the first alpha and never had much luck with them. This time though holy poo poo I was wiping out entire teams :stare:
