Our 2026 will be VERY blessed.So MANY GAMES.
>>729765935WOW LOOK AT ALL THOSE BOWLS OF SHIT
>>729765935Looks like CA will be doing a bunch of new shit with TW:40k. Based on what they showed and some followup interviews the formula is going to be really different from every other TW. Hell it even looks like they're scrapping the LL system in favor of a customizable yourdudes thing.I'm cautiously optimistic.
>a dozen 40k games>it's all hurr durr lets kill some xenos XD>still no AAA inquisitor game where you hunt down heretics
>>729766909We will get there, 2026 is the year of Warhammer
>>729766909Isn't that the entire premise of Dark Heresy?
>>729765935But why no Total War 40K on image??? Darktride is an old release it should replace it
>>729765935Are Fantafaggots and Histosissies still mad at TWW40k?
>>729765935I love 40k slop, I am the target audience. Is Gladius worth playing?
>>729767170That's like looking for a space survival game and somebody recommending FTL.
>>729767491It has a 90% discount right now, just find out
>>729767945that's not what I asked, I got it for free awhile ago.
>>729768186If you want to play a simplified version of Civ, then yeah I'd say so
>>729765935Just finished the main story for space marine 2 and while I’m still gonna play the operations and coop with a friend, I want more. How’s rogue trader? Or should I do mechanicus? Bolt gun? Ideally I’d like to play/fight other enemy types. My main complaint of space marine is that aside from being short there’s only 2 enemy types. I wanna fight more xenos/chaos.
>>729767345Not historyfags since they got medieval 3.Only fantasykeks since they are like women, if they aren't the center of attention they die.
>>729768880I really enjoyed Mechanicus
>>729770214Does the game have an end? From my understanding it can just go on forever or did I remember that wrong?
I bought Inquistor on the steam sale, looking forward to it at some point, just started Rogue Trader.
>>729771236It has like 10 missions for each character and a count down timer to complete them.
>>729771236The game has a specific fail state and a win state.Kill all the Necron leaders to winLet the timer reach zero to lose.Timer is pretty generous but I recommend making a note of the different Necron glyphs you encounter during the moving from room to room phase of each mission. They have the same result every time you pick them, but most are negative, including increasing the awakening timer. Avoid that one if you can.
>>729768880>>729770214>>729771339>>729773415Thoughts on rogue trader?
>>729773702it's great if you enjoy lots of reading and deep lore and owlcat autism. I would say that it's not for everybody I'd recommend watching mortismal's review on youtube before buying.
>>729773702Haven't played that one, but I intend to.From other threads I think the main complaint is that the combat is very "buff yourself until you can kill the entire encounter in one turn". And something about romances and cuckoldry, but you'll get that for every owlcat game. Hell every game with romances.
>>729766909This is what not one but TWO of the games in that image are about
>>729774676are you possibly working for valve and somehow involved in the tag/recommendation system?
>>729775183I genuinely don't know what you mean by this
>>729775243you need to learn to ignore stupid people and their posts, nobody here is worth responding to outside of the topic being discussed.
>>729773702I loved it
>>729775243THAT CARNIVAL MASSACRE ISN'T EVEN REMOTELY SIMILAR TO EITHER RE4MAKE OR SHADOW OF THE TOMB RAIDER AND TO SUGGEST THEY ARE IS DEEPLY DISINGENUOUS. So no, none of the 40k games are in any way a "AAA inquisitor game where you hunt down heretics."
>>729773876You are right about the combat devolving into fist round alpha strikes but it's not really that much about buffing, certainly not to the extent of the Pathfinder games.More about tiggering more action points and skills that give you more turns.
>>729766909Play darktide?
>>729778229>co-op horde mode fpsHow is that in any way similar to what i want?
nigger
>>729765935based
I love 40k but a lot of the lore is retarded. I like to rewrite huge swaths of lore in my own head canonYou can just ignore new shit. You know that, right? I rewrite entire swaths of Warhammer 40000 lore in my head canon>Warhammer 40000 takes place in the same universe as Warhammer Fantasy and is just the Warhammer fantasy world in the far future>no ties to our world or real world geography or names>Astartes, Custodes, Primarchs, the Emperor, Thunder Warriors, etc are a separate race of giants/super humans who rule and protect the rest of humanity instead of being genetically enhanced>the Primarchs that survived the Horus Heresy are still alive/never incapacitated>The Emperor is still immobilized on the Golden Throne but isn’t a fucking rotting carcass. He’s just in a stasis field like his son. When the stasis field fails, he wakes up>Astra Militarum aren’t fucking weak and are almost always successful in defending/reclaiming worlds. Barring the most ridiculous world ending Chaos/Xenos invasions>most planets live in relative peace. The galaxy is fucking unfathomably gigantic. It’s impossible for EVERY SINGLE planet to be war-torn/dedicated to feeding the war effort>etcAnyone else do this?
>>729784028>most planets live in relative peace.This is basically true.
>>729765935I hope the Mechanicus 2 soundtrack is as good or better than the first game, judging from the trailer them its pretty good. I hope it goes more into the haunting and ethereal style for necron tracks. Also The Votann trailer had some good music. Dance of the Cryptek, Warriors of Mars, and Treacherous will be hard to top.
>>729765935None of these games make sense especially darktide. The average imperial guardsman who gets exposed to chaos daemons gets executed to keep it secret that dark gods even exist.
>>729786296>she’s so vulnerable. This makes no senseWe know. That’s the cool part.
2026 status?do we have just a chance?
>>729767243Total war isn't considered a game in 4ch, you have low standards
>>729767491>Is Gladius worth playing?Against friends? Yeah. Against AI? No.
>>729790653(apparently they're far along enouigh that they invited a bunch of youtubers to play an early build in mid 2025)maybe...?
>>729765935those games are not good thoughRogue Trader is woke owlcat shit, you can even romance a fucking eldar, romance in 40k games is embarrassingDOW3 is literally a recycled failed dota clone which is what DOW4 is built uponSpace Marine 2 is a console game (yes I know it's on PC, it was developed for consoles natively then ported to PC, don't be a retarded faggot)Darktide is a worse reskinned Vermintide where the characters barely feel like they have any identity, Ogryns were depressingly squishy on higher levels when Bone'Eads canonically can take almost as much punishment as a space marine, though I haven't played it since launch so maybe they fixed the issues I had with it.Mechanicus is inferior to the completely free 40k+ROSIGMA mods for OpenXCOMDark Heresy, being Owlcat slop, is not likely to be good and will probably include things like troons and niggers where they don't belongthe only thing in that image I can even approve of is Boltgun 2
>>729790653to be honest I think it's stupid to want that, Total War is a franchise about melee combat with hammer and anvil tactics, 40k is a huge amount of ranged combat which doesn't fit in the Total War formula. You can want a 40k game but not a 40k Total War game.
>>729791815>Total War is a franchise about melee combat with hammer and anvil tacticsThis retarded nigger has never heard about Empire / Napolean Total war.
>>729791776>Mechanicus is inferior to the completely free 40k+ROSIGMA mods for OpenXCOMTRVKE
>>729792220that post tells me you only play pve vs AI and never pvp if you think you don't need melee in those games
Is the Astartes companion in Dark Heresy going to be a Black Templar or Grey Knight? And will there be a dogs hit Heretical path option like a Night Lord?I want a Black Templar, because they need more representation.
>>729792454lorewise a black templar wouldn't be joining a ridiculous warband like that, they are elites like deathwatch sent on high priority missions. would actually be upsetting if they shoved a black templar into that game
>>729792442>playing total war pvpWho the fuck does that
>>729792545sorry you're a casual, playing against AI is just too fucking easy
>>729792442I never said you don't need melee in those games, you double nigger. Those games invalidate your statement about total war games being only about melee combat. Of course you still have melee with cavalry, etc in empire TW and yet you would have known that 40k has more melee centric units in comparison if you've ever played the TT.
>>729792591played orks on tabletop since 3rd edition, shooty is more common in 40k than melee unless you're something like tyranids
>>729792220and THIS retarded nigger hasn't played a fucking game in the past ten years if he thinks that Creative Assembly understands how line of sight and firearms work, and hopes that an ENTIRE GAME BASED ON IT will be good.40k fans are fucking parasites that just hope to attach themselves to everything, bleed it dry, then move to the next shiny thing.
I know fatshark will never be able to match VT2's maps in Darktide but I do hope they'll at least get the game to be more stable this year. It's fucking ridiculous how frequently people crash when you're running havoc 40s.
>>729792629It certainly depends on how you build the army. Most factions have plenty of melee choices except of course the tau (even they have kroot which are meh in value though).
>>729792675It's on a new engine, tard. Stop being a presumptuous killjoy.
>>729792746you aren't wrong, you can build an army any way you want, but there's only a few armies that really allow you to lean into melee more than shooting like space wolvesthere's nothing stopping you from bringing nothing but assault marines and assault terminators or whatever, but whether that setup will let you win the battle is a different story. even with orks I feel like shootas are better than sending a bunch of incredibly easy to kill sluggas at the enemy. Soak/distract with better units, IMO sluggas are only good in niche situations like flanking Tau who have absolute garbage melee, you want the ranged advantage of shootas in most situations simply because of the amount of dicerolls needed to do significant damage is less.Better ork players than me probably have a counterargument but this has been my experience playing tabletop on and off over the last 20 years as orks. Melee is more of a "win more" than your primary strategy.
>>729765935>They're all shitExcept boltgun which was ok
>>729766463Expect incompetent design, incomplete features and mountains of dlc. If it's anything like tw2 it'll at least be decent after a while though
>>729765935>was really excited when they announced 40k total war>mfw only 4 factions at launch, 2 of which being imperiumCan't wait for factions being drip-fed at £15 a piece
>>729790653>PrimarisInto the trash it goes
>>729778450You play as part of an inquisitorial retinue hunting down and killing heretics.
>>729793016>inquisitorial retinueMore like a penal legion lol
>>729792814>no dude you don't get it, NOW they'll figure out how guns work after 10 years of Warhammer Fantasy specifically for The Biggest Project Yet(tm)You deserve having the guaranteed $1000+ of DLC they're going to throw at you.
>>729793059>seething poorfagLol. Post mini.
>>729793059It looks like it isn't really a total war kind of game. That said, I do think it looks like shit from the trailers they showed
>>729792814>new engine>a new console friendly engine It’s already dogshit
>>729791776Who pooped in your cereal jeez
>>729793136the people making 40k games did. I grew up playing stuff like Chaos Gate so modern 40k games are repugnant to me
>>729793136GW did. He's right, though I disagree with him on mechanicus. I thought 1 was great but 2 isn't looking good if only because of the league of votann's inclusion
>>729793104You should not be proud of spending that much money on a fucking video game.
>>729793016>want mass effect but set in 40k>hurr go play some co-op fps lol
>>729793263it's kind of sad how many people there are that think blowing lots of money on stupid shit is a brag, because they had that amount of money to blow in the first place>haha i'm economically stupid you loser, it must suck being poorweird flex but okay
>>729793213>Chaos gateLmao ok grandpa
>>729793263I don't care and don't bitch about it. There's a difference. 40k TT is after all an expensive hobby to filter out you whiny poorfags.
>>729793317>>729793317>mass effect but set in 40kWhy haven't they made this yet tho
>>729793317Except you didn't say you wanted mass effect, you said you wanted to hunt down some heretics as a member of the inquisition.>>729793058At the start sure, but you fully join the retinue at level 30, it's basically the only thing that actually happened in the story back before they added all the campaign shit.
>>729793347>it’s expensive to filter poorfags!It’s expensive because retards like you dump thousands into gay ass action figures lmao
>>729793317That's not what you described but I see where you're coming from. That said, I don't trust 40k writers, essentially modern ones to write an even half decent story
>>729766463>CAI have zero faith in those cuck.
>>729773702It's good fun but it gets very easy very fast. When the next batch of dlc gets out I will replay it on the hardest difficulty
>>729790653I want to believe but I don't think it's possible
>>729793005It's been 8 years, fucking get over it. You're never getting Firstborns ever again.
>>729793347I can't fucking imagine being as stupid as someone that considers this to be some form of superiority. The ability to blast needless amounts of cash on figurines and videos games that should be priced at a tenth of what they're at, and practically thanking the company for the privilege of being able to do so. You are truly a low IQ individual.
>>729766909>kill bad guy>:(>kill bad guy (spikes)>:O
There's something incredibly embarrassing to be into 40k in the current year. It's so neutered and capeshitty. Can't imagine any single one of you being 5th ed or earlier.
>>729793637these are the people with the same kind of personality that think having a bunch of funko pops is a bragyou don't need to understand them, just scorn them
>>729793654so, what things are you into?
>>729790653>ramageddon his happening, no more affordable SDD space>AIshit pushed everywhere>no more win10 support for retardsIf it's buggy, unoptimized as shit with typical CA kikery; 2027 should be the earliest.
>>729792970it was always gonna be this wayfantasy WH total war was already bad for it, 3 in particular being mega barebones shit without all the cut content DLC theres no way the ultimate cash cow was not gonna be milked 40k times more
>>729765935Redpill me on this Horus Heresy shit that my cousins is trying to get me into
>>729793654It truly is a sign of the times when you have extremely little discussion on random specific things like Eldar tactics, Imperium armor, Chaos cultist swarm strategies, but instead have an overwhelming amount of conversation about specific primarchs and which ones could beat up which other ones and power scaling and all this other gay shit that is just so fucking boring.
>>729793819It's just muhreens vs muhreens.
>>72979381940k but if you removed all the of interesting concepts so you can wank off marines without distraction mechanicum are cool though
>>729793819It's shit. No Orks no Tyranids what's the fucking point?
>>729793819Magnus did nothing wrong. Russ is a faggot. Horus is a gullible retard. Mortarion is a bitch. Lorgar is the most brain dead no willpower faggot you’ll ever read about.
>>729793819it's garbage, the horus heresy story/lore is cool but the set they are selling is not. you'd be better off doing homebrew horus heresy with pre-primaris units if you wanted marines vs marines combat during that time period, it's a good opportunity to use titans too because that was when chaos titans were at their peak as well.
>>729793651Yes because the whole fascist angle of the setting is the only interesting part. Rooting out the heretics, unbelievers, traitors and conspirators, those that seek to undermine the emperor and empire and the twists and turns of that kind of story. Just playing another stompy mountain of muscle shooting xenos is the most boring thing i can imagine.
>>729793923>Magnus did nothing wrong. Magnus did everything wrong and deserves to be Tzeentch's cum sock puppet for all eternity for a being retarded red nigger.
>>729793819its like the WoW classic of tabletoptried to be a way to preserve an older editions playstyle/ruleset but now they are updating it and its just moving towards all the garbage that people played HH to get away from
>>729792970>was really excited when they announced 40k total warI don't understand how you could be. The latter half of your post should've been at the forefront of your mind when it was announced.I just wonder in 15 years time, when CA finally goes bankrupt, how much all the DLC will cost. I honestly suspect that they will drop one Astartes chapter per update at $25. And retards with gobble it up regardless.
>>729792970Why would you be excited for TW 40k? How did you think combining the premier paypig franchise with modern CA would go well?
>>729767491I really liked it even the singleplayer.
>>729794015>when CA finally goes bankruptunfortunately there are way too many idiots in this world who are loose with their money for that to happen, the same kind of people who buy Paradox games on launch and then hungrily lap up any DLC put in front of them because they enjoy Paradox games and can't even for a moment think about how having content nickel and dimed out to them in DLC form is predatory and wrong. These people will dump hundreds of dollars on 1 video game buying all the DLC on launch day when it's not on sale, some of them even brag about it.
>>729793953the inquisition isn't about subtle sleuthing and clue findingits glassing a city because you had a dream that there was chaos in it (there was no chaos)
>>729794170>there was no chaosYou don’t know that. You think in a city of billions there isn’t one chaos worshipper?
>>729766463>made for controllersit's dead, jimmicus
>>729793359RT is already that, better by not being in the smoothbrain ARPG genre
>>729793978Magnus did nothing wrong as in all he had to do was nothing and he fucked that up.>don't go into the garage>goes into the garageMagnuuuuuuuuus!
>>729784028>rewrites the HFY setting to be even more HFYincredible, to think you baited me by using warhammer fantasy as a baseline
>>729794170>wasting a city and imperial resources because it came to you in a dream >most likely dream from chaosYou'll get other inquisitors declaring you as the heretic for fucking up that hard.
I somehow beat DOW2 and previously loved DOW1 but DOW3 is just fucking ass man, great production qualities, cool heroes, but absolute garbage campaign and "strategy" that I had to quit after five missions, do you think DOW4 will be much better? I heard the creators are massive warcraft 3 and campaign nerds in general.
>>729794405>the webway (that you don’t know about) will fix everything lil guys just truss
>>729793702Its funny that you people have such fragile egos to get offended by someone showing off their collection and subconsciously consider it as an affront to your inability to possess the disposable income to purchase such trivialities.
>>729794490>Okay.We'll never know if it would or not thanks to Magnus fucking up doing nothing.>JUST KEEP THE GARAGE CLOSED AND DON'T GET IN. THAT'S ALL YOU HAVE TO DO>Instructions unclear>or maybe i was corrupted by chaos>garage entered and new hatchback totaled>sorry dad
Big E deserved it. Imagine being a Space Marine or Primarch and serving some dude who was going to throw you into the trash the moment you served your purpose. Never forget the Thunder Warriors
>>729765935Rogue Trader was so fucking boring. Space Marine 2's mission where you had to shoot birds from attacking antennae was also fucking retarded
>>729794590they'll say he deserved it but they'll say he's wrong
>>729793872>>729793892>>729793898>>729793923>>729793939>>729793995Alright, I too think the lore is cool, but the concept is a bit stupid. If I were to dip into it, what’s the most diabolical/nasty faction to go for that’s also not completely useless?
Is there a single Astartes Legion who doesn't have daddy issues?
>>729795008Turns out it's hard being a single father to like, 12 genetically modified super humans.
>>729795128Uhm actshually, there were 20 primarchs.But even that shouldn't mean that the people working in the legions of these primarchs also need to have daddy issues.
>>729765935>owlcat sloplol>dow4Looks like mobile shit >darktideIt will never stop snowing in Sweden >SM2Dogshit>Mechanicus 2Just as boring as the first one. The only use of this game is its soundtrack.>boltgun 2Yawn
>>729796169reddit post
>>729796184Reddit loves owlcat shit, SM2 and mechanicus.
>>729765935TW40k will make all of these irrelevant
>>729796276It's not releasing in 2026
>>729795008>legionHuh? Anyway all of the Loyalist chapters.
I hate secondaries so fucking much
>>729796317Lol
Somebody tell that nigga what legiones astartes is
>>729793898Why are Xenofags the most obnoxious faggots in 40k? >Me me me me everything has to cater to MEI agree though HH is shit and its consequences have spelled disaster for 40k
>>729796169>God I fucking HATE video games>Do I fit in yet?
>>729796498>boy I love consuming slopAwful taste. There has not been a single good 40k game since dow 1. Even dow 2 was mediocre.
>>729792923Blood Angels, Space Wolves, World Eaters and Black Templars all lean pretty heavily into melee.
>>729796606"Slop" is the sound you make licking the ring piece of the angry /v/ caricature in a desperate bid for approval.
>>729796406I have no idea what the fuck that is but it sounds gay as hell.
>>729784028I can get behind this.
>>729784028Sounds terrible. I hope you dont have aspirations at being a writerAlso its called the Imperial Guard not Astra Milifagum
>>729796680If that is how you perceive the word then that explains volumes about your redditor attitude. Slop is used to describe shoddy garbage which were made primarily with the objective of cashing in on players rather than the studio focusing on making a good game.
>>729796606Oh fuck off
>>729796987>>729796606>Do I fit in yet guys?
>>729796987>*Slop slop slop* Mm God I just hate video games!
>>729796217ok predditor
>>729784028>Warhammer 40000 takes place in the same universe as Warhammer Fantasy and is just the Warhammer fantasy world in the far future I don't need to read any further than that. You're stupid and that's a retarded head canon.
>>729793923>magnus did nothing wrong>could have outlined how to prevent warp bullshit at nikea instead of being a retarded sperg nigger talking about how warp beasts are just dumb animals>could have flown to earth and told the emperor about horus in person instead of doing the one thing the emperor told him not to and used psychic warp bullshit to try and reach him >could have even stopped half way through the warp travel when he saw the emperor had a big fuckoff psychic shield already around SOL instead of destroying it to tattle on horus>could have actually fought back against leman russ and prevented his world and legion from getting 95% assraped before he showed up to get his ass kicked by russ and teleport to the gay nigger eye of terror zonemost incompetent fucking retard in the lore.
>>729797676Weren't they sorta kinda arbitrarily soft-linked with Age of Shitmar?
>>729765935Unfortunately, I have made a pact to paint warhammer much more and game much less in 2026, but yes I'm happy there are many 40k games.
>>729784028everytime some faggot calls imperial guard assfaggot faggotradum i know they are a tourist and don't belong in the fandom.
>>729792970>>mfw only 4 factions at launch, 2 of which being imperiumDo you seriously no remember the first Total Warhammer?
>>729794405Love this fucking meme bullshit.
>>729798330This image is too good.
>>729793819There are two reasons people are allergic to Horus Herersy: it's the worst Primarch wank you can imagine, and everything is SM vs SM.
>>729794875dip into it how?>40kyou want a kill team starter set, $100>30kI don't think there is an easy or cheap way to start with, age of darkness box set is $200+.what I'm trying to say is stick to vidya. this shit is overpriced AND you have to assemble it yourself + buy the tools/paints.
>>729798647Such a shame 40k caught mainstream as physical vidya went out of style. Surely some genius would've had the idea to include a minor mini with the premium edition of the game or something. Hook 'em whenever you can.
>>729796169>It will never stop snowing in Sweden
>>729797924Same. My pile is still growing
>>729795008Alpha Legion. Maybe.
>>729765935I wouldn't mind a Warhammer 40k The Sims 4 expansion.
>>729802738An average imperial citizen (women and children including) work 18 hours a day. That wouldn't make an entertaining game I suppose.
>>729803106Thats just stupid. Her braid is blocking his sights.
>>729798647I meant faction
>>729803095>that wouldn't make an entertaining game I suppose.Nigga I would whale out to get a better Frostpunk in a 40k setting, and watch my citizen turn into enslaver portals because I fucked up paying the grand tithe in time and get rid of the psykers in the underhive
>>729765935the atmosphere in darktide is unmatched
>>729805047Something like Cities Skylines mixed with Distant Worlds would be cool.
>>729766463
I like Space Marines
>>729803095Gaymes Wokeslop wants more vaginal customers though. Have you ever seen how cruel female players love to treat their sims? 40k would be ideal.
>>729794459>do you think DOW4 will be much better?It's made by shovelware devs so no.
