Space Marine 3 idea: Captain Titus and team fight Necrons and then half way through, the Thousand Sons show up and become the main bad guys
>>740013059sm2 was a downgrade compared to the original, especially the melee combat. it's just tap or hold square with limited combos.
>>740013059thousand sons suck ass i dont know why they picked those niggers as your chaos enemy in SM2you literally go from dismembering the tyranids and spraying all those blood and gore then you fight the evil marines and they just puke out confetti fireworks. make them fight khorne or slaneesh worshippers nigga, fuck nurgle too there's already vermintide and darktide for the "mindless zombie but with pus and puke" hordes
>>740013969>plague marines>mindless zombiesomething tells me you don't have an army
Do necrons have a unit to be the horde mob?
>>740013059It should be Titus and Squad Vs Eldar and then halfway in Necrons wake up on a nearby planet and then you gotta team up with the Elves to keep the necrons contained
>>740014175you just know they're not just gonna use plague marines if they make them fight nurgle but spam all those shitty fake zombies as trash mobs
He can kill whatever, these games are fun. I think it should be Eldar instead of Necrons but they were all but confirmed.
Game is on sale for 70%... Looks fun, but I hear it's only a few hours long.
>>740014816Its worth it, the co-op mode also has its own storyline with like 9 more missions, so the whole game is like 16 hours
Next enemy should be dark eldar imo. Necrons will be fucking boring to fight. Their gauss rifles will realisticslly punch through any normal space marine so you will dodge rolling again to stay alive.
>TitusHehDickusVaginusHeheh
>>740013059well obviously they can't repeat tyranids and thousands sons again...
>>740013925melee combat was completely unviable in sm1 due to the lack of iframes, especially when Chaos showed up. on hard you HAVE to play sm1 like a cover shooter or you just die
>>740015395Yeah, but you felt tankier engaging in melee in 1 due to glory kills always giving health while in 2 you need to have white healthbar for a glorykill to give health.
>>740015553literal skill issue retard
SM3 should be Captain Titus and a full squad against the Orkz, Tau, Iron Warriors and then NecronsCaptain TitusReclusiarch LeandrosVeteran Ancient MetaurusVeteran Sergeant Gadrielone new Ultrasmurf dudeValiusVespasiusQuartusDecimusScipiusStrabanTelorianthe Apothecary guy
>>740015553except in sm1 it doesn't matter how "tanky" you feel because you die faster than Titus can do an execution Once Chaos Space Marines show up you HAVE to cower behind cover with a lascannon or you will just die
>>740013925Are we really this level of contrarian now.
I like sm2 onlinethe gameplay is actually pretty deep
>>740015114And drukhari have quicker reflexes than SMs so you should miss like 80% of your shots and strikes
>>740015114Titus has plot armor beyond plot armor. He's a Ward-Era Ultramarine brought to modern 40k.Ironically people will bitch about Ward while also talling up Titus without even realizing the hypocrisy.
>>740015395melee was only viable with one of two specific builds for assault in exterminatus and maybe three different builds for assault in pvp>but i'm talking about the campaignyes thats why your opinion about sm1 is irrelevant
>>740015757It'll be a miracle if the operations crew are even seen again and aren't just killed off.
>>740019102They've killed a ton of bosses and survived, they're practically Terminators without the armour.
>>740019171Bro they killed Chairon and Acheron off in a web article.
>>740019171Yeah but they killed off Chairon who most of the playerbase actually saw since there's a huge drop-off of people who never even played the PvE modes.Hell, only half of the people who played this game even fought the Hive Tyrant.I'm attached to the squad myself since I have 1k hours in this game but it'll be a miracle if they're EVER mentioned again.
>>740019262Acheran was always just going to be a stepping stone for Titus to reclaim the captain's seat.Chairon was probably because more people watched the Secret Levels episode so they picked Metaturus instead. That and they probably don't plan on bringing in the Word Bearers in the lore/TT for quite a while for Chairon's whole "was there on Calth" thing to be relevant again.
>>740013059>Space Marine 3 ideaRemember that the Raven Guard exists
>>740019262Chairon was just a regular Space MarineAcheran was just a placeholder captain because Games Workshop probably did not allow for Cato Sicarius to appear
Ditch the Ultras. Or at the very least have a main campaign that's sort of an anthology where you play with different chapters. Ultras chapter, Space Wolf chapter, Blood Angels chapter, etc. I could not give a fuck less about Titus at this point.
>>740013925there isn't a single feature SM1 does better. SM2 is a straight, objective improvement in every single way
sm1 was fun but not perfect. lategame enemies were way too bullet spongysm2 was and is still infuriating to play and imo a strict downgrade over sm1 besides the graphical capabilities of the engine. QTE melee combat feels like trash. All of the guns feel weak. The voice acting is cringey. The menus are STILL console port trash and I cannot believe the game has been out this long and they haven't fixed menu and UI interactions (like holding a button to access a sub menu or interact with a world object). Why the fuck is there no separate mouse sensitivity slider for 3rd person and ADS/zoomed camera angles.multiplayer is still a lagfest and the map design is boring and forces abusing right hand corner camera peaking.Also primaris marines suck and they aren't even letting you use the interesting primaris shit like inceptors, suppressors, and aggressors
>>740013059>CSM will ALWAYS end up as the de-facto final boss in a SM story
>>740021420>All of the guns feel weakThis to me is the most egregious mistake. Like playing on Absolute, sure it's supposed to be the hardest difficulty but blasting a fucking hormagaunt with a bolter round and it does nothing is so fucking infuriating. They JUST buffed body shot damage for bolters by 50% but how the actual FUCK did it take them 2+ years to get here? The chaos spawn meatballs are so dogshit to fight too.
>>740013059Nah has to be different chaos faction this time. Probably nurgle
>>740013969>and they just puke out confetti fireworksThis is the cool part. They look and move cool as well. Even their resurrection reassemblies look cool.And they do have enemies with blood inside them as well. In fact there are only generic Tsons in two variants and Terminators in two variants as far as dust automatons are concerned. From varieties of Tzaangors, Cultists to Chaos Spawns, Sorcerers and Helbrutes, those guys have blood inside them.What sucks is simply that Tsons manner of fighting is inherently annoying. They teleport away so you can't hit them and confuse you with sorcery and battle tactics. Kitting is always annoying.Funniest thing is that Necrons would be in game identical to TSons. Devoid of blood automatons, resurrect constantly, teleport away, use notSorcery, mostly fight from afar, Egyptian theme etc. And Necrons most likely will be in sequel, alongside Orks.
>>740020447Cato isn’t 2nd captain anymore he became head of the victrix guard
Gonna preorder the armageddon box along with grey primer, khorne red and wraithbone so I can paint blood ravens
>>740014193Easily, even if you wouldn't want to use basic Necron Warriors as that, there are Cryptothralls and Canoptek constructs like a variety of Scarabs, Plasmacytes and Warriors
>>740015114I'm also on the boat that says Dark Eldar would be a fun race to fight.>Enemy reinforcements arrive via Raider drops>Have a decent set of extremis enemies>Have a bunch of haemonculi creations as bosses>archon court such as incubus and sslyth enemies>Mandrakes and warp beastsYou can even say you can slaughter the DE by the hundreds because of vat-borne eldar.
>>740022692Exactly my point, they didn't want too much character bloat and want to just focus on Titus with a bonus Calgar appearance.
