Thanks for watching! It would be nice to get an in game reward for solo completion but Devs typically don't reward solo runs in co-op games.

I would like to see that too!

Especially when running solo. Only fight when you have to . Reach objectives as fast as possible.

That is strange . Try signing out then sign back in. If you still don't have it. Report to the Devs on twitter and the forums.

do you have the skin now? once you claim it the progress should not matter.

@Jack2505_ ahh my mistake I wasn't clear, yeah I got the skin but my character progress on my tactical marine was all lost, I've not played much but I did the 10 ops on him and he's level 1 again, down from 9

that is strange, if you have lost character progression I suggest reporting this to the devs asap as this is a serious situation to avoid this happening again the the future.

@@Jack2505_ yeah I've emailed and gone on twitter, apparently it's a thing that's been happening since launch and they've not fixed it, it's annoying as I was going to get the season pass as I'm enjoying it but if there's a chance that my progress can be lost again I'm not going to

Teleporting into the lift.. there is no escape!

Good stuff. The bonus damage is good, I loved it with the knife.

lethal was made easier by removing "tight formation" months ago, also lethal is nothing like dark souls and has even been completed solo by players. armor can be earned by parrying and gunstrike. if you are finding lethal difficulty. feel free to join me in lethal operations live on youtube

It has been fixed.. my latest video explains this. When you log back into the game the sword skin will be available. Also log into your pros account to check your progress.

rejuvenating effect is good, at times i prefer not to use it to revive because there can be times when you use it to pick someone up but no further chance to gain more health. it is good for clutch situations and if the team is struggling. however the other options to do more damage or take less damage whilst on the banner can also be helpful.

@Jack2505_ i see! Appreciate the response!

@@eetuparkkisenniemi2099 no problem!

You get by completing 10 operation missions in space marine 2, and it turns out that the sword is the same chainsword from the first space marine game

That's good it counted operations you did before. More of these events are welcomed!

and lets hope the horde mode is good, full of action and imagination, so many games have done horde in a very forgetful way.. gears of war are still the kings of horde but lets hope sm2 can match it and make it memorable!

Interesting, I've always wanted a perk like that. ive just finished a lethal run with my heavy and he has a contested perk like that I think when firing in the stance he gets his health back, it would be good to have a perk like that. the more aggressive you are in melee combat the more you can survive, cooldown could be 30 seconds like that op tactical perk that allows players to spam grenades as long as the kill majoris enemies.

​@@Jack2505_ yes exactly. Anything that rewards aggression, especially extreme aggression, because that's where Space Marines have always felt the most powerful. Plenty of examples of Space Marines being "literally too angry to die", let's make that a game mechanic 😂😂😂

You have your green colour already for lore accuracy. Why not have the option to change your own individual champion skin. When you are playing operations would it disturb your gameplay if you see a silver bulwark? As long as he has Warhammer gear on and putting that flag down.. that's all that matters.

and so what? so in a video game it can only be one colour? the devs need to make more colours available for these champion skins and I think they will going forward.

@@Jack2505_ "and so what." Yea if you ever get a lot of subs all the die hard warhammer fans are gonna filet you for that answer lol. just fyi.

@monkeyswithshoes308 I want to have the option to change the colour. If people agree that's fine, if they don't that's also fine. Space marine 2 is more than just the so called die hard fans. If for eg you want to get it real with the lore and keep your dark angel green.. that's great. I want mine black and gold! Is that ok?

@ Honestly, yea. Because once you buy the tabletop dudes, you can paint them however you want. You can home brew successor chapters for example. Games Workshop has deep lore that it’s been very protective of, and the fan base often reflects that. That’s all I’m saying.

Dark angels aren't only green. Deathwing and ravenwing are bone and black, respectively.

I felt that way about bulwarks until "tight formation" was removed.. then bulwark numbers in my games went down so I can mostly pick bulwark anytime I want. The fact that the champion skin is available in one colour is disappointing and I wish we had more flexibility around this.

the developers want it as a full set so you cant mix and match with other parts which I can understand to a certain extent but the lack of color change is annoying.

@@Jack2505_ personally I don't understand that. I mean.. the helmet for example is THE staple for higher ranking dark Angels. Or robes.

I still feel comfortable with parry against minoris enemies. The timing is a bit different now. Don't know why the developer felt the need to mess with parry. Hopefully it will be fixed

They bugged the parry window, they said they will fix it.

Yes I agree that the design still looks great, it would be nice to have the option to change colors together with the extra chapters they introduced in the dark angels pack. each class will have their champion pack and it will be interesting to see how they also look!

Bladeguard veterans can be greenwing as well. Not all veterans are deathwing, but all deathwing are veterans.

when you click "browse local files" make sure you click content the pak file then copy the downloaded file into that folder.

Give it a go and let me know how it went!

Great stuff! Good to hear you are comfortable with blocking up to ruthless difficulty. I talk more about chainsword blocking in the part 2 blocking video.. and check out blocking with the knife! It's quite good!

You don't take damage when you block.

at 2 mins it was at 2 stacks, the stacks are counted below the armor bars, everytime you block you will see a counter going up from 1 - 3, I should have made it more obvious in the video with a zoom in! check from @2:30 the block stack counter going up from 1-3 everytime I do perfect block.

When the enemy attacks you press the same button you press to parry, when that happens you block instead of parry. Perfect block works in the same way as perfect parry.

gunstrike is better for assault 100%, the constant feedback is chainsword blocking is great as you said.. i need to practice more with bulwark regarding blocking as it can be a bit weird with that class atm for me.

I lied, the blocking Thunder Hammer is a banger on the Assault, but for me it was a struggle to adjust. I can safely do solo ruthless now and working my way up to lethal.

@Viktor_Johansson it is tricky to adjust to. Good pay off with the hammer when connected

@@Jack2505_ Bulwark is a personified block. That said, fencing + gun strike keeps armor up, and makes him immovable with the armor up perk. But block with bulwark is less of a counter attack move, more than simply putting out your shield and laughing your ass off while hords of nids smash against it without damage. I also like to stand in front of my team and just absorb all the gunfire with my shield. Even Zoans, except their stupid beam, you can just shrug off with the shield. That said, the actual new blocking mechanic does very little for bulwark. They overall forgot to introduce perks that make blocking weapons better. There should be something like gunstrike for blocking, just not a gun strike, maybe rather a counter-punch or something equivalent to a gun strike. Longer damage buffs as you mentioned in the vid, AOE damage on perfect blocks, etc etc. Refilling your abilities with blocks and so much more. But yeah, for now, Bulwark is best paired with fencing sword or fist.

@104thironmike4 it would have been good if the bulwark could absorb damage for a certain period with his shield then unleash the aoe stack damage to make him even more of a tank that actually benefits from the new blocking mechanic.

ive just been holding the button, its worked for me and that is what I clipped in the last two videos. when i was tapping it was parrying. holding works for me.

@ it’s all good! I’ve read in the code block is only active the first 0.33 seconds so holding it any time past that is pointless, unless it retriggers automatically for the next attack (I.e, holding it down blocks multiple attacks one after another without having to re press the button). Either way, on bulwark you have to tap to block. You asked in the video, and the answer is to tap and not to hold. This is how I do it on every class without issue. I just have to tap to block any particular incoming attack.

@BasSine_Studio will give it another try once I use the bulwark again

Yes I noticed the power fist block version has the least damage which makes no sense. it needs a rework for sure.

Will look into that!

Thanks for the information. When I get back on my PC I'm going to try out what you said and let you know how it went.

I’ve been tapping and it’s worked fine. Also if you hold on bulwark it just brings up the shield. So I’m not sure.

No change in perks. This time the blocking was working with the chainsword. If it keeps parrying. You might have to restart the game. Every weapon that blocks was blocking correctly.

💯 and maybe the buff works even longer for slow weapons like the hammer! Double the duration!

I feel that

@@Snowfreak357 I’ve probably logged 250 hours. Everything is maxed out. For me, chainsaw is far more powerful, due to the AOE. The knife is so frustrating, unless you’re running an SMG sniper with the backstab perks. Then you can stealth in, stab, spray, cut until you aggro, then stealth out. It’s just not good in its own. Yeah, it stun locks, but unless you’re running melta, you’re gonna find yourself in trouble over and over again.
