The Imperium of Man in Warhammer 40K: Dark Millennium Online

Zaeed needs to get paid.

What about all the vehicles? Uhhh?
 
Vehicles need some simulation to feel right.
 
Vigil - impress me!

Warhammer 40,000 - where grinding through thousands of mobs actually fits comfortably with the fiction

Relic and Vigil must be like Insomniac and Naughtydog the way they share tech and whatnot.
God I want to play both these games so bad. 

Wow, i seriously hope it doesn't suck, i need a good MMO right now, and i don't SWTOR is gunna cut it

Thanks for the lowdown Zaaed.

MAKE IT ORKY

Yeah, I noticed that.  Both THQ properties but still kinda weird.  Oh well, I hope this game turns out solid.  The world could use a good MMO that isn't fantasy based, and the 40K universe is a great one. "

If your THQ and you need a "transporting troops shot" are you going to pay thousands of dollars to code a new one or use a perfectly good one you currently own.... don't be stupid.  "

Ohh, a sci-fi themed MMO that doesn't look like garbage!

Can't wait for this.

Hmm, W40kDMO. Shame they can't switch around the title so it's WMD.

Praise the Emperor! Finally someone in the industry who realizes that there are a bajillion fantasy-themed MMOs and makes the first move before Blizzard gets off its bloated ass to make a Starcraft MMO!

Look at 39 seconds in.  Is that a World Eaters outfit?

I'm willing to give this a chance given my long love of Games Workshop.

I'm all for a 40k MMO but since it won't be out for say four years, why care now?

YEEEEEEEEEEESSSSS!  Awesome.

Man, it sucks having a dark day. A whole millennium has gotta blow!

Why oh WHY didnt they do this game before WAR?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So will Imperial Guard players be controlling five guys in order to match a single Space Marine player? >_>
 
hehe
 
Also, F this game if they ignore the Dark Eldar, like the Dawn of War games. >_<

2013 Q1, huh. That's.. quite a far ways off. Why are they showing gameplay videos Now?

I wonder if I can go a year only playing 40K based games?

Somehow I get the feeling it's like the first Warhammer Online game. Great lore for a game, but poorly executed (quests, zones, etc.). But we will see.. Seeing as it's so popular it might be a good contender versus the other new ones (The Old Republic for example).

i wanna play as an ork :(

Vigil has my seal approval now, I'm down for checking out anything they're involved in... The fact that it's 40k based is the gravy

" Warhammer 40,000 - where grinding through thousands of mobs actually fits comfortably with the fiction "

now i can't be one of the eldar's dancing girls...  don't judge me.

" Look at 39 seconds in.  Is that a World Eaters outfit? "

Given what Vigil did with Darksiders, I have a ton of confidence in those guys.  Hopefully, the production of this is not slowing down Darksiders 2, though.

Warhammer 40k.  Awesome.  Love sci-fi, especially love the 40k universe.
 
but.. anyone else feel the MMO formula is getting a little worn out?  "Go get me 10 Ork nubs and I'll give you a Bolter +1!"
 
I hope they do something different with the MMO gameplay elements.  I also hope they actually build an MMO world and not a loosely strung together collection of instanced, private zones.

They see WOW and think, If only WE could have 10+ million subscribers, we would be richzors!!@@@!@#!!@!!@###  Course, they dont get how WOW rules that section of gaming, and any and all crumble before WOWs might....... I hate WOW :P "

I can see a game like this being very enjoyable. The only problem is its hard to come out with an mmo that can actually survive. I would also like to see an mmo that wasnt an RPG such as WOW and have it be a big hit. Let it have RPG elements such as leveling up and collecting new gear, but make the combat epic with it being point and click.

I want to go to there!

I don't really want two million Space Marines running around, but for as much as I like the IG, I do recognize that a 250-year-old superhuman in terminator armour and a flashlight-wielding guardsman with a flack jacket wouldn't be exactly balanced in PvP (assuming that traitor guard or chaos SMs make an appearance, of course).

Great, they announced the Space marines as a playable race.  But it's kind of obvious.  What would a WH40K game be without the Space Marines?

Looks good but it will be interesting to see what they do with the Imperium of man.I like that they have confidence in there engine and show gameplay rather than renders (cgi). 

i would kill to play as a tau piloting a battlesuit in this game

So...Dreadnoughts as a playable class?

+1

As long as there's at least one enemy in the game that yells "SPUYCE MARINE!" I'm on board.
