I'll wait until I get to try it but maybe they learnt their lesson from the Spacehulk weird feeling gunplay.

That FPS Space Hulk remains one of the biggest god drat disappointments I've experienced. It's a god drat slam dunk, how do you gently caress that up?!

Someone on youtube got a copy early and this game looks like it might actually recapture the magic. The devs took a gander at Doom and said "yes thats what we were doing wrong," crammed in a shitload more mobility and rock music, then stuck it all in the same massive levels that they were known for in EYE. Theres even a guy who throws fireballs at you like an imp lol.

Also they replaced the training range (and, lets be honest, the passive npcs in the EYE hub) with a dedicated combat arena to test out different loadouts.

This is part of what the discussion on Deathwing misses a lot. Deathwing launched with a bunch of bugs but it was polished. It had that gentle sheen to it that indicates they put real effort into making it a serious, honest to god made by professionals game. That's bullshit, I want a Streum On game that makes me continually ask an empty room "What? What the gently caress was that?!"

The guns sound a lot chunkier in the recent footage I've seen, which was my big problem with the earlier clips so I am definitely keeping my on it. It's gonna be jank as hell but as long as the combat feels good this time, I'm down

First 40 minutes in English, not bucking any stereotypes the guy playing in this footage literally blames his controller for any bad play. Also I hear that Kal Jerico, who appears near the end, is a reasonably famous WH40K/Necromunda character.

Basically a named hero of the necromunda universe who had his own comic book miniseries.

Looking at the footage linked above the work done on the environments is phenomenal and the gameplay seems to be like doom and quake, super interesting so far! Still gonna wait for a review but cautiously optimistic

If I take away that's it's 40k it looks like a fairly generic but competent shooter. The fact that it takes place in a hive city means I'm willing to put up with a good amount of jank.

i from watching the end of the video it looks like you can have conversations and poo poo with people and the rpg and faction rep stuff is pretty deep. so its basicaly gonna be 40k eye but more polished and better translation.

Here is the official release timing for tomorrow, on PC they are going with a midnight release at Paris time. Though that doesn't agree with the countdown timer on Steam.

The counter on Steam reset, now the release is in 30 minutes for 6PM EST/3PM PST. Nothing more precise for the other storefronts, so wait and see.

Also people who got the game early are finishing it in about 8 hours, by mainlining the campaign and not doing the bounty missions on the side. A real rush on Youtube for who can upload a complete playthrough first.
