My experience with the game (PC version) so far has been flawless and without any bugs or crashes. I've just seen one dead orc and one guardsman moving really weirdly but that was it.

edit: Plus Titus looks like someone having a seisure when sprinting up a staircase with small steps.

Really enjoying it so far and it's a great premise to expand the franchise upon. Can't wait for a RPG style 3rd person game like Kotor with chaos corruption path options and possible redemptions or a horror style game. Just amazing.

I think they mentioned that it would be a future DLC.

Edit: Yeah

The one glitch I've encountered so far is the game freezing before/after games in multiplayer, but it only happened 3 times over 13+ hours of play. Other than that on the map with the control point in the center with the bridge over it (can't remember what it's called) there is a spot where you will get stuck and be unable to move.

You can fire from there tho and it's hard for attacks to hit you so if you feel like playing the waiting game I guess you could exploit it. Also yesterday anahalation games would sometimes get stuck at the 40 kill mark and could be milked indefinitely, but they fixed that.

Again the pvp doesn't feel very balanced until you hit a certain level. Melta gun did it for me, right now I just walk around with meltagun/stalker bolter and I feel that it's a well rounded combo for most maps. Once you start unlocking stuff you die less and the game becomes more fun, although I would welcome level brackets for matchmaking.

I've been rocking the storm bolter / plasma gun combo... I don't engage in hyper long range fights, but assault marines best beware, i'm gunning for them.

the only thing that annoys me is lag...

Some games i'm ownig shit up and thinking "yeah, now i got this"... next game i'm terrible and wonder why until i see the ping.

Well... The Stormbolter/Melta kinda solved that tho, not much need for aiming :p

I had a hard time in multiplayer at the start, I suck at assault, and those assault raped me all the time. Now that I've gotten used to it it seems pretty easy. And rather imbalanced as well to be honest. Melta basicly kills every assault that tries to kill you in 1 shot..
This is what I'm running now:

Level 32 at the moment, and still enjoying it! And omg the bolters sound great.

^same gear I run, although it will take me a while for the relic helm

I'm getting the feel that the 8 direction rolling/melee attacking system is what really dumbs the game down. Also concerning this I feel that a cancel animation key would make playing an assault much less of a pain in the ass.
Right now in most maps I just dive in, snipe 1 and hope that final vengeance will kill 1 or more for my kdr.

seems like from reviews that my impressions from the demo were spot on: it's fun for a while but gets really repetitive after a couple hours :\.

I've had the mega melter for some time, but i have horrible luck for it... .i can shoot people in the face.. twice... and they just kill me. Maybe its a latency thing...

My current favorite loudout is:
+ Show Spoiler +

Pretty common lol, except i don't have the melta charge, instead i prefer the upgraded equipment perk because it increases the damage and radius of my frag grenades. Now when i drop a frag before death, it is even more powerful than the suicide perk for the jump pack that causes it to detonate after death. And if there's a raptor or assault marine standing over your corpse when that grenade goes off... all the better.

ALSO, i recommend trying:
+ Show Spoiler +

It feels like those oldschool halo combos:
2 plasma shots strip away the shield and a burst from the storm bolter finishes them off.
Very strong medium close quarters character, with charged plasma artillery for long range and the storm bolter for those up close scary moments. Also, being a good mid range character, its perfect for the teleporter perk so that allies can use me as a pylon to warp into the front lines :D

Anyone know what the mark 4 looks like?
Oh, and BLOOD RAVENS ftw...

And for those interested, i have my two jump pack loadouts:

And my two heavy weapon loadouts:
+ Show Spoiler +

+ Show Spoiler +

AND OF COURSE, i extend the invitation to all on teamliquid to add me as a friend:
My name is of course XerrolAvengerII <-(ii but capital ;p ) Hope to see you on the field.

EDIT: Replaced or tweaked most of my loudouts, all "spoilered" pictures are now new... featuring my new weapons/ perks/ and armor pieces as of level 22 !
And YES My space Marine DOES have a robotic left arm :D

I'll post all of my loadouts as well:

Devastator loadouts:

Assault Loadouts:

Tactical Loadouts:

+ Show Spoiler +

When I get my last loadout slot I will probably make a plasma Devastator. I'm currently tried to decide which bolter setup I want to run, thats why I have 2, I'll probably try that plasma gun/storm bolter loadout when I figure that out.

I was so suprised to find out that this was a third person shooter/hack n slash and it's turned out pretty well so far. Manual control of jump jets, such goodness.

For those of you looking to purchase the game:

http://cdkeyshere.com/warhammer-40000-space-marine-cd-key.html
~$25

Put the cdkey in steam, download and you're good to go

From my experience with these sellers, they seem pretty good. I haven't had any problems so far.

You mean something like this?

Or more like Space Hulk? Man, this game was so boss. Solving the mysteries of scary drifting space hulks while commanding a team of terminators. I'm still waiting for someone to release SH2, that would be awesome (and it might actually happen, seeing how GW re-released the board game recently).
