Halfway through, I went to fix us both a coke float.
By the time I got back, he'd gone insane.
Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.

If they released a F2P version of Space Marine's multiplayer with slightly bigger maps, extra races and actual dedicated servers I'd be happy. Lets face it, it doesn't have to be the best game ever to be better than most attempts at a 40K title. Hell a playable release would make it better than average at this point.

In all fairness this has nothing to do with early access this is just the next 40k game.

Never mind not buying early access there is no reason to pre order anything ever unless you want the cosmetic doodads. It is not like they are going to run out of copies anymore since they are not physical media.

I made a series of bad investments. Tarantula farm. The bottom fell out of the market.

It preys on the fear that this will be the NEXT BIG THING and be a ten-year-long institution and people want it to be apparent that they were on the ground floor. It takes a special kind of stupid to buy into it, especially when there is no demo, barely any work has been done, and the developer has no pedigree. (referring to people bought in at the start when they hadn't even started doing things beyond planning what they wanted to do in the game)

NeocoreGames also promises that, after the campaign concludes, the story will continue “in a colossal sandbox game” that the developer claims will give players “years of constant entertainment, gradual development and a continuous flow of content that enriches the action-RPG gameplay.”

They just created a leveling curve that literally would take years to complete, playing 24x7. Grinding is 'constant entertainment'.

Beggars can't be choosers. Until the blessed day when Relic announces Dawn of War 3 our choices are either games like this or some mobile poo poo or loving chess. The Van Helsing games seem to be doing alright so at least it's not a completely no name developer.

Since THQ went bust and they were bought by SEGA have they done anything? Didn't they lose the GW rights due to all that?

There was some super bad off screen footage but nothing official or good quality. It looked a bit more involved than l4d.

Sega also just reregistered the dawn of war 3 domain ontop of dow1-2 all getting updates and steam cards. I wouldn't be surprised if relic has been renegotiating contracts with thq out of the picture and is about to announce dow3. I mean poo poo 2 made so much more money than any of the tower defense or chess games that gw has been farting out.

It seemed at first that they lost the rights but in an interview around the time CoH2 came out they said they do have them now. They've been very coy in general whenever asked if they're actually working on anything 40k related but I have a feeling Dawn of War 3 could actually happen and sooner than we think.

In another recent interview some guy from Relic said that only half the company is working on CoH2 DLC so there's something else they haven't announced yet.
in the past year or so Relic have suddenly increased their support for the DoW games. Replacing GameSpy with Steam, rebuilding the community site, even adding steam cards.
On March this year Sega updated the dawnofwar3.com domain.
https://www.relic.com is getting a makeover.
Gamescom is next month.

I'm probably setting myself up for disappointment but I dunno... I like where things seem to be headed.

Should be, GoG's releases work on pretty much anything and I've never had an issue with anything I've bought through them before. The store page also says it works on windows XP, vista, 7 and 8.

It's hard when you give the job to a developer that has made games such as High School Musical: Sing It! and Kung Fu Panda: Legendary Warriors and then have a bunch of leads leave the project half way through.

Because Mittens of Goonfleet fame is being paid in coke by Daybreak to push people bored of Eve towards it since you can be as big a poo poo head in H1Z1 as you can in Eve.
