    • @thefallencog
      @thefallencog 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Funfact: the marines brain inside the dreadnought doesn't regenerate or produce more cells. So as the older a dreadnought gets, the more animalistic and single minded it gets.
      While its possible the ultramarines dreadnought we saw here was Lucid, its also equally likely its just a space marine whos brain has degraded to such a point that all it wants is nothing more then to kill Xenos and Chaos. You'd never be able to tell unless you knew how long in service the Dreadnoughts been in.
      This is a common fate for Custodes that enter dreadnoughts.

    man I love 40k lore, the dreadnaughts for example are massive life support machines for mortally wounded space marines, they are almost always ove 1000 years old, and when the Tau (an alien empire that went from the stone age to a stellar empire in 7000 years) fought and killed a Dreadnaught for the first time, they scanned it and realized the pilot was older then their entire recorded history, humanity are not the new kids on the block, the imperium has been around for an eon, and we fought against hell itself for our place

    My favorite moment during the campaign was the battle-standard holdout. The fact they took that scene from the artwork of old 40k Space Marine codex editions was an amazing callback to 40k veterans. This game had so much attention to detail that you could really tell the devs were fans and did their homework with the game to go that extra mile.
    Another great little example of detail; the Guardsmen you see in the campaign; if you angle the camera to look at their faces, you'll notice they have violet colored eyes. That is an insanely minute detail to include from the lord of Cadia and its occupants having grown up within close proximity to the Eye of Terror.
    This game nailed the 40k atmosphere.

Not to mention, they don't exactly make games, they just port them.

    You mentioned how the PvE ties directly to the Campaign and it made me remember how Mass Effect 3 multiplayer did that with the story mode. Every time you fought back the reapers on the multiplayer maps with your buddies you would see your war effort in the main game slowly go up as the Reapers lost control of those areas. It gave you incentive to play multiplayer and also made you feel like your efforts actually mattered. Gosh I wish games would go back to doing those kinds of creative things instead of being so one dimensional. 😅

    At around 18:00 I really don't want to be that guy but... you managed to pick the ONE EVENT with multiple squads doing stuff simultaneously that they DID NOT make an extra operation for. Practically every other major setpiece has an accompanying operation or two... but weirdly enough not the obelisks.
    Like, there's the promethium burn on kadaku to buy everyone time to evac, taking out the hive tyrant and the warp jamming in the hive city while MC squad goes to call big papa backup, taking out the warp beacon while Titus and co are suborbital dropping to the grave world, launching the ancient battle barge to smash the silver tower while the main squad holds a nav beacon so it can actually hit its target... and then... like... an epilogue mission back at the hive city, doing cleanup ops. That last battle is just glossed over in operations. I hope they add missions covering it.

    • @thefallencog
      @thefallencog 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      They most likely ran out of time when developing the operations and had to leave it cut off at three.
      I imagine that the 6th operation was meant to be something used for a story DLC, or a hint at Titus's next mission (that whether will be a story DLC, or a third game we don't know yet)
      but its also possible it was intentionally supposed to be a meaningless operation because 99% of the missions the imperium takes part in are useless beyond killing Xenos at every possible opportunity.
      Or whats more likely is this was their tech demo level for the swarm and they repurposed it into an operation for us to play in. They did delay the game because the swarm tech was too much for lower end PC's. So they likely made that level in mind with being able to properly test the swarm. At least i can hope

I just think it's a but odd how they have the Operations squads very obviously off doing part of the obelisk sequence but then we don't get to play those sections. Maybe it just didn't end up unique enough from the campaign sections to be worth the limited pre-release dev time. It's all speculation from me any way it slices.

Because let’s be real, aiming on sticks is far inferior than on mouse and it’s total BS to allow them in the same game space like too many shooters do now with crossplay. It’s unfair for the console boys especially the casuals who already struggle with janky stick aiming. Imo keep K&M players separate from controller players in shooters
