40keks are expecting waaaaay too much from CA. If you haven't played a total war and are expecting something pure to tabletop, get ready for disappointment. The tech just isn't there yet for a lot of things you are expecting, and it's being released for consoles so it will be dumbed down

>>
>>550115654
the console thing is a "muh ai" - tier psyop to excuse the game being shit. The game would have had the same issues with mass market appeal, poor optimization, and simplified gameplay even without consoles because that's just what CA does now. But consoles are a convenient excuse to call it intentional design.
It's the same with the ai boom. People were ok with a soulless and oversaturated entertainment industry until they weren't anymore, and when they started to take issue with the state of things ai took off and became the scapegoat.
If you fall for the the lie that consoles will make the game bad you need to wake up. They won't change anything.

CA made Halo Wars 2, which was genuinely a pretty good game and was surprisingly fluid with a controller (I mostly used mouse + keyboard but tried it with a controller out of curiosity). It did retain some console-isms like radial menus when playing with a mouse but given that Total War is a PC-to-console game rather than a console-to-PC game fingers crossed they'll keep the traditional interface for PC players, which it looks like they more or less have from the tiny bits of gameplay they've shown.
>>
>>550116872
they just want people to be able to buy their game sis its 2025, 90% of people probably play WH3 on lowest settings
There is clearly no point trying to sell games to the 1% PC elitists with hardware better than consoles, they don't sell enough to make up for losses period

Thoughts on this race power tier list?
>>
>>550117054
That's short sighted though, because the PCs of today are not the PCs of tomorrow. If they want to have this game last 10 years like fantasy versions then they need to future proof it by planning ahead for better hardware. They dont want to make the game run on garbage now so they can't have cool stuff later

Race is a societal construct, please use the approved term naction instead (nation + faction). Thank you.
>>
>>550117054
Yes I'm not trying to say that there's not a good reason for them to make the game for console, quite the opposite in fact. What I'm saying is that anyone who genuinely believes this fact will make the game worse than it would be otherwise is complaining just to complain, and essentially gatekeeping complainers into a situation where they focus their efforts into a situation that can't be fixed, over one of many other more better things to complain about.

Well yeah TCACALLUKBI gains the same amount of money if a rich man or a poor man buys a copy of their game. The customer only needs 1 or 2 copies.

Wish I could but ever since Warhammer happened, I never once were interested in a new total war game besides warhammer 2 and warhammer 3. It's kinda impossible for them to make a total war again that I'm hype for or will ever buy.

Everything Turin said about WH40k were just his hopes about the game and MP. He NEVER EVER said anything about the existing gameplay at all. Keep in mind that Turin is confirmed to have played the early alpha pre-release version and he still didn't say even a single good thing (or anything, really) about the actually existing gameplay. Turin can't say anything bad about it either for obvious reasons since he's partnered with TCALUK. This should tell you all you need to know about the current state of gameplay: it's pure fucking dogshit.

Just fought in a settlement in a pic related and even focusing all ranged units on the lord, it wasn't enough and just as the orc army started retreating from with him, my meele units were dead enough form them to break from their archers and make them rally. Now my main army is dead, orcs haven't lost a unit since they won and they just spawned a waaagh stack.

>>550120954
Lack of distinct factions within the "races" is the most likely one.
Seems like the factions will be entirely customizable, meaning distinct "Ultramarines" and "Blood Angels" are less likely. Probably going to just give us a series of mechanics to unlock as we play.

No retard, 40k will allow you to have multiple weapon classes in the same unit. Meaning some marines can be melee only, some having only flamethrowers and others rocket launchers. It's not the same as changing big sword to a small one.

Now that the dust has settled a little bit from the trailer launch and all the retarded secondaries that didn't play either the tabletop or total war have finished shitposting. Let's have some serious discussion about the 40k game. How do you think the following will be handled ingame:
1. Factions variety and customisation. Lots of factions in 40k don't really have dedicated characters or fleshed out lore aside from 1-2. Like admech, tau or necrons. While some like marines have 12 chapters which marines have tons of them with barely any difference. Do you think it will be a base faction with the ability to choose a subfaction for certain benefits/drawbacks?
2. Do you think heroes will still work the same way in the campaign map?
3. How will 40k specific mechanics like deep strike and strategems be implemented into the game?
4. How will unit and squad customisation work? 40k is a lot more loose when it comes to equipping squads
5. What will planet control and corruption be like? While certainly you can have something like tyranid or chaos corruption. It might be more of a historical system with native population being displaced
6. How will diplomacy be handled? Things will probably have to be a lot more fluid than just a simple confederation with another faction. And you most likely won't be going on a genocidal rampage wiping out other imperium factions without facing consequences

>>
>>550122715
They would be fine if they weren't flandnderized so much and given the same treatment as other factions. But trying to portray them as the main characters eliminates that which could make them interesting.
>>
>>550122771
It's kinda worse, how are people gonna feel when they start a Space Marines campaign and have to fight a bunch of other Space Marines, that's not really what they want

>>
>>550123005
>how are people gonna feel when they start a Space Marines campaign and have to fight a bunch of other Space Marines
To be fair this does happen in lore, BUT, I do really hope CA has more sense than to do this. Like, if you really need to fight another Imperium faction at the beginning as space marines, make them fight the IG, not another chapter of marines.

Without CSM or Chaos Cults/Daemons, Nids or geenstealers, or Tau, the imperium has very few actual "large scale" threats other than the Orkz
>>
>>550122831
1. We already know. You can pick existing chapter like Ultramarines or make your own with your own designs, legendary lord and colours. You can apparently choose your faction traits, so like AoW 3/4 I guess
2. Doubt it. There's planets now, so I don't know how a hero separate from army would work. I think it'll work like Three Kingdoms or heroes will be basically treated as units.
3. We already see deep striking pods in gameplay, and the devs talked about that iirc. The rest is to be seen
4. We already know. You have a squad, and you can pick how various members are equipped and probably look, so you can probably have a single Tacs squad with a bolter, flamer, rocket launcher and plasma in one unit.
5. No clue, I don't think CA know either since Chaos is not available on launch, but probably you will corrupt as you fight or with faction mechanics?
6. Hard to say, but if you befriend an IG regiment as SM in a campaign, they can appear in the next game as allies. I wonder if you can be buddies with Eldar as IG or SM which can happen in the lore from time to time. Could you, after Chaos DLC, turn your donut steel loyalists into chaos crazies? That would be cool, even if I doubt it

Honestly, was out of ideas.
Tau being "rebel imperium" was all that stuck out in my head. Kin are allies to the Imperium. Mechanicus and SoB/Eclesiarchy ARE imperium. Druchii don't really exist in realspace so they don't really work too well for Total War. And Necrons are a tiny faction like Tau because, while they're everywhere, 99.999999% are still sleeping.

>>550123484
Yeah I think this is one of the many cases where morons whining hurts us in the long run. CA can't make it a pre-order race because fags made a stink about it, so we will have to shell out 25$-30$ for them separately. For fuck's sake. Granted it's not that bad, since CA pre-order factions are typically shittily done until they get fleshed out with a DLC and actual pure dlcs get far more effort, so it's going to be fine I guess, maybe all is as it should be

I'll give it drucucks, they're determined. When you're a darkshart taking aim at the parapets of the stone wall your entire family tree has tried and failed to overcome, using the same exact tactics and equipment going back five generations or more, it'd be understandable to feel like it's an impossible task. But they just keep coming and they never let themselves believe they will fail like their grandparents did, even though they always do. That's a level of self-confidence that would be considered delusional and suicidally retarded in most other cultures, but that's just how drukeks are in general. It's admirable, in a way.

Ahh.. age of wonders 4..
I started playing that like 3 weeks ago. Spent maybe a week playing it.. the only good part that game has is faction creator sadly. The combat is so fucking bad the game constantly suggests you don't fight battles and hit auto. It even has an "auto win" button for your auto resolve by disallowing the AI to cast spells. That's just a base game "feature" to make you always win battles.
Play that shit for a week and come back to WH3.. you'll be gurgling CA's dick chilli, yelling about how amazing their game is after you went through that hell.

Retardo... that button is to disallow YOUR AI-controlled army from using spells during autoresolve in order to conserve mana.

It's pretty good for the genre, somewhere on the level of HoMM3/5. Judging by your absolutist claims you are low IQ trash who has barely played the game or got rolled. Bet you didn't even beat Grexolis lmao you dumb fucking shitter.
>>
Epic Games Store might be giving away Warhammer 3.
>>
I have been playing wh3 for a bit, and the only tactic that I have found to reliably work is deploying in a corner ("vanguard" lmao) and baiting enemies to charge into my position while I defend my archers/canons
But this feels cheesy as fuck, and so I try to use terrain instead whenever possible.
Anyway, for my next campaign, I want to get gud doing battles normally, which faction is good for this?
Also, I can't figure out sieging that doesn't involve bombarding with artillery for 5 minutes, is there anything else that works?

Yvraine will be probably left as FLC for after Dark Eldar are added, with Visarch as a legendary Hero and the Yncarne as a summoned monstee bound to Yvraine herself. To be honest Yvraine may not even be around by that point though, so who knows.

Any flying unit breaks the AI as the moment they land on the walls AI tends to abandon walls, shutting down the towers and allowing you to climb them. Get all your archers up there to shoot enemy to shit while flying unit drops down to area behind walls to blob up enemies so you can nuke the blob with spells. If that fails its alright, AI has fallen back to 8 different directions allowing you to easily defeat it piecemeal.

>Since the earliest days of Total War: Warhammer, fans have wondered if Creative Assembly could tackle 40K. For my own part in those musings, I've always wondered how the physical dynamic would work. Guns in Total War are nothing new – Skaven were given miniguns and snipers as early as Total War: Warhammer 2 – but in 40K, where melee and sidearms are more commonly interchangeable, the series' traditional front-to-back battle lines are a little harder to imagine.

>Creative Assembly has approached the task by blending Total War's signature formula with inspiration from 40K's tabletop game. The ranged and melee structuring is still in place, but has been changed to feel more dynamic and hybrid. Soldiers will be able to use cover on the battlefield, and individual characters within one unit can be equipped uniquely.

>"Like you'd expect in the tabletop game, a unit of your warriors isn't just made up of one unit type. It's not the same person: they've got different specialists, different weapon styles," Mann explains, pointing to Space Marines as an example. "If you play the tabletop, a sergeant with an intercessor squad is armed with a chainsword and bolt pistol. They're good in both melee and ranged."

>These loadouts can be changed by players, from picking their weapon loadouts to even more in-depth customization via a fully-fledged unit painter.

The three big Crises would be

It would be interesting to see since the Nids would come from the outside of the map moving in, while Chaos would emerge from the Great Rift and move out.

Far more hybrid, because you can make your melee only unit with different melee weapons or ranged only unit with different ranged weapons. Every model within a unit attacks individually and now there are also actual ballistics in game.

So 40k tw wont have a Immortal empires right? its gotta be like, its own self contained campaign or something. I cant see the logic beind space marines conquring planets held my imperial guard just to replace them with more imperial guard.

Actually that's a good point with how they're making a "campaign" instead fighting across 10 different separate instances the size of a TWWH continent, there will probably only be like 40 factions on each planet, tops, possibly only 10~20
>>550127097
Can't wait to field an entire army of omni-manii with every weapon in each unit thereby removing the need to think.

>1. Factions variety and customisation.
AoW/Stellaris style traits and just like you even have faction traits in TWs so far, TWW in particular, buffing particular units, giving relationship penalties etc
Ultras/Imperial Fists will be release game chapters from which you can make your own successor chapter
When Dark Angels are added you will be able to make your own successor chapter and have access to Dangel style unique units like Ravenwing or Deathwing
2. Do you think heroes will still work the same way in the campaign map?
all characters will work more like in 3kingdoms and not TWW. Hero-Lord distinction is too arbitrary in TWW and nonsensical. They will be killable, but with wounds too.
3. How will 40k specific mechanics like deep strike
Like Domination/Survival Battles from TWW3 functionally. TWW3 was just a testground for 40k mechanics. You will have a cap on how many units you can deploy during battle every campaign map turn, it's that resource with a cap next to money.
>strategems be implemented into the game?
just abilities like Black Ark ones
>4. How will unit and squad customisation work?
You will be able to pick gear according to what those units use on tabletop. So Intercessors will have multiple Bolt rifle options. You won't be able to equip everyone with whatever you want. Most downloaded Steam Workshop mod will let you do that tho.
>5. What will planet control
They talked about this already too. You can make outposts on a map (ogre camps). Various cities and unique locations will be conquerable and with unique buildings separate from your Outpost ones, giving you access to unique gear and units, more deployment points, abilities like artillery etc
>and corruption be like?
It will be left for nids and chaos. I guess they can make map change visually if different factions like Orks conquer stuff too
>6. How will diplomacy be handled?
We can see button for it even in pic related. Originally diplomacy was more restrictive in TWW as well.

>>
>>550126458
Orks aren't any more hostile to chaos marines than they are to tau or eldar or imperium.Pure daemon factions would only have diplomacy with Chaos mortals except Slaanesh with corruption stuff.
>>
>>550128939
Chaos has a combination of cultists and mutated monstrosities in the roster, also have daemonic magic at their disposal.
It's not just marines in there like SM.
>>
>>550131263
i just meant in general, green is more lasery than blue because bright green a PIERCING color

>>550123442
>>550130710

Some very good points. Yeah, it's looking very much like it's going to be /yourdudes/ kind of faction customisation like avatar conquest.
One more thing I wanted to discuss. Do you think CA will focus on a particular edition of 40k, use a mixture of all of them, or just make their own approximation. Cause depending on the edition it will affect a lot how the game plays. For example, vehicles can have either have a simple wounds system like we have right now, or they could become immobilised/explode/lose access to guns. Also, how will the various detachments work over the course of multiple editions? Kinda like regiments of renowned in TWWH?

I like the way that the first piece of artwork in that article literally shows lasguns firing solid beams, classic GW retardation. The reason why beams rarely show up in artwork is because they awkwardly cut across the rest of the composition, especially for the massed battle pieces that GW is so fond of.

Considering 40k is an active tabletop game it will certainly be whatever the current edition is, they also did say it takes place during the indomitus period

>>550126992
I'm not going to play any because I think its going to get Hyenda'd, and even if it doesn't, if I want to play a modern 40K RTS I'll get Dawn of War. It might not be the best game franchise this long after the kino of Dark Crusade and Soulstorm, but at least it won't be AS broken on arrival.

>>550131698
About regiments of renown I just thought how fucking cool it would be if you could make your own. Let's say I win a campaign, and I can save a single unit from that as a RoR, choosing its additional unique traits from a random pool. Like I can save Tacs from a campaign, give them a bonus vs infantry and an ability and they become my RoR to be used in future SM campaigns.

>>550131698
They'll probably focus on 11th edition since that one will launch before the game's release.
If they'll go beyond it is unknown, but they'll need the 11th for the inevitable Drukhari refresh and more units for the "newish" armies.
>>
>>550132241
Dawn of War will likely release months earlier than TW
Plenty of time to play both

They will stick mostly to a newest possible edition, but still source some stuff from olders. In tabletop way too much rule bloat is annoying since players have to keep track of all mechanics. In video games computer does it for them. You can bloat video game harder than tabletop one and it will still be manageable.
In 10th Edition Intercessors just use a generic Bolt Rifle. In previous ones they had 3 different ones. You have those again in Space Marine 2 and I think they will be in TW:40K again. Tactical Squads will exists as well since they will be in 11th Edition and Space Marine 2 has Tactical class too.
Legend units in particular will be in game sooner or later. Squiggoth will come with Snagga boyz expansion. Kroot will have Knarlocs despite them still not being refreshed and existing.

Nah, Mk. X is meant to be highly modular so it can utilize older armor segments as well. Older armor (at least Mk. 3 and beyond) would still see use even as modular parts for the suit.
Cawl also couldn't improve Terminator armor any more than it already was, his 'remedy' was Gravis which is still significantly inferior to Terminator suits.

Why would I play both when the former is an actually thought out and practiced, proven game format that I know I'll probably like?
Especially since the latter appears to be trying to copy said former with none of the experience and half of the resources because DoW isn't kneecapping itself for consoles.

I can't believe everyone just glosses over the fact that these games are going to need to run on objectively inferior hardware and have comfortable controller input as well as mouse and keyboard.
>T-They'll optomize it so it won't-
No they won't lmao, and on console even modders won't be able to save them.
>The gameplay will still be go-
Snap back to reality, no it won't. They're going to make maps linear and try to keep engagements at range so you don't zoom in and see how horrendously clunky everything is, but it won't work. Models will get caught on terrain and make their whole unit get stuck, enemies will stand in the open and let you hammer them with artillery, snipers will run out of ammo and just run directly into melee and die, this is what you have to look forward to lmao.

Hopes and fears for tyranids?
>>
>>550134198
Eldar are legitimately one of the more popular faction in 'proper' 40k. Their units are strong, look good, and have a ton of playstyle variety. The problemcis that because Eldar are already popular on the table, they see no reason to make (literal) secondary media for them. As such Eldar books tend to be very bad because the authors either don't care about Eldar (Brooks) or actively dislike them (Thorpe).
Because of how large the community outside of the tabletop is because of said secondary media, this translates to Eldar fans being perceived as an extreme minority, when in reality Eldar are aming the best selling xenos in the setting.
There's also further issues caused by said community often not bothering to actually read the basic Eldar lore leading is misinformation that's copied and spouted by morons, which also tends to work against Eldar.

Hahahah, good one. No, its going to flop like a fat man in a kiddie pool. It will be unplayable and broken as badly or worse than Rome 2 on release. If you can play a single battle with the enemy actually fighting you and not having an AI stroke it will be a miracle from the Emperor.
>Reminder that it's only sci-fi competition will be Stellaris. A 10 years old game everyone has already. Every other galactic conquest scifi strategy game is a plankton.
True, but Stellaris is a functional game that works well and doesn't demand a tremendous amount of CPU engagement and active decision making. Stellaris is a Paradox map painter. It is all computations and calculations, a computer's bread and butter.
>Scififags will buy this
No they'll blink, laugh at the gameplay, and then buy DoW.
>TWfags will buy it
No they won't, TW fags don't like fighting armies that can't think or react to them
>TWWfags in particular will buy it
No, they'll stay on WH1/2/3, games are most fun when they work.
>Normalfags will buy it
Normalfags will get bored after 2 hours of the shitty gameplay, it doesn't have nearly enough jingling keys.
>40kfags will buy it
Maybe some, but most will probably just stick to DoW4 which will mog the game so hard it'll be sad.
>Hell, even some consolefags will get baited into buying it.
Most will buy it because its shiny and new and then when they play it and it sucks they'll stop. Most importantly, without buying any DLC.

I want Sebastian Yarrick but he's dead and I think GW will be more brutal with what they will and won't allow this time around.

Technically that part got retconned as during the Ynnari debacle the Wraithlord is mentioned as being Iyanna's guardian again.
So either he's once again an Exarch but does remember her (which makes sense, he was an Exarch before being a Wraithlord) or he's back in a Wraithlord body.

I think you are one of those fags who watched a lore video once and is now trying to impress us with your "knowledge" but unfortunately for you it was one of the worthless ones or you misunderstood something. A bolter essentially shoots very big bullets that then make a tiny explosion. There's still grenade launchers in 40k as weapons.

>>550142718
Yes, they are. Moreover, they cannot be anything other than a grenade. The grenade is ejected out of the barrel via a mortar type charge after which a motor activates and the projectile starts flying independently of the mortar charge. Here is the kicker - a rocket propelled grenade like that CANNOT have any sort of kinetic mechanism for defeating soft targets, not to mention obstacles and armor: the velocity of a rocket propelled grenade is too low and diameter/length ratio is absolute dogshit to provide any sort of meaningful penetration based on the Lanz-Odermatt equation.

In other words: a bolt round CANNOT under any circumstances be ANYTHING ELSE than a grenade. A rocket motor propelled one, but a grenade nonetheless.

Physics and math don't change with time. For penetration you need: projectile velocity, density and a good diameter/length ratio:
https://www.longrods.ch/tube.php


Bolter rounds do not have good velocity at all and the projectiles are fat and short. There is no kinetic mechanism for penetration to be had with such a projectile. Only thing it can be is a grenade: shaped charge or frag. Nothing else.

but they clearly do penetrate, so your point is moot. you say that something that happens is impossible. if it was impossible, it wouldn't be happening, so you must be missing some detail that makes them work.

Skrag is a coinflip wether you want to be best of buds with the good guys, or beat em down and be liked by the greenskins/chaos/skaven. If you truly feel aimless just do contracts and put down tactical camps here and there. You don't really empire build so it's easy to give away settlements for boosted opinions. Just remember that meat is all, keep up those sacrifices to the maw with Skrag and get a lot of benefits.

Also, the one thing 40cuck cultists forget about their dogshit bolter is the inarguable physical fact that a motor propelled projectile accelerates far slower than a ballistic one: the motor doesn't magically accelerate the projectile to max velocity, it needs time.

Rifle projectile speeds. Gyrojet could achieve pistol velocities (roughly 400m/s), but that is laughable compared to rifle rounds and would never be sufficient past point blank ranges (where the gyrojet performed abysmally due to the time needed for the motor to accelerate the projectile kek).

Lasguns have recoil because their instructors told the Guard that they do, so every Guardsmen now pretends there's recoil with ingrained subconcious movements every time they pull the trigger.

Yes, it does. It's just that most sci-fi weaponry:

The bolter operates on well-known and well-studied physical principles. It simply CANNOT work, because physics don't work that way. Cope.
