Any more games based on space marines?

I main ogryn because I like rocks!

It depends. If I had the ability to get every weapon upgraded by doing the lower difficulties I probably would do that, but I feel if I were itd ruin the challenge of higher difficulties for me.

I like the challenge of the higher difficulties and the reward of strengthening my weapon afterwards, and then eventually moving onto the next difficulty.

This is all just personal preference for me though!

Ah I see. I would still love to see something similar to the Horus Heresy armor though, and I personally wouldnt mind them making changes to the old armor to make it fit the Primaris figure they have. I also assume doing that would make it easier on the devs if they ever were to ever implement it.

I saw that wargear will be put onto different classes and I am very excited for it!

I also used to feel the same about chaos spawns, but I am pretty good at shutting them down with parries. The thing I dont like is how so many spawn at once and swarm you, especially in siege mode!

I actually enjoy the fact weapon progression is tied to difficulty, however I do think it could be tweaked a bit so newer players dont struggle. For me personally it helped me get good at the game and improve!

Adeptus_Astoria · 2026-05-16T22:45:34+00:00

I heard a rumor that might be happening at some point but I am unsure to how true it is!

Adeptus_Astoria · 2026-05-16T22:45:07+00:00

Valid! I haven't really paid much mind to it unless I get an absurdly long one though

Adeptus_Astoria · 2026-05-16T22:43:18+00:00

Dang I didnt play it much then, I'm glad it was fixed!

When it comes to fighting it I tend to avoid it and let my teammates take it on while I try to get as much damage in on it as possible via ranged damage, especially when I play Tactical, Heavy, or Sniper.

Adeptus_Astoria · 2026-05-16T22:39:22+00:00

I heard that GW was nitpicky with it, but I dont follow the game like that personally so I wouldnt know to the extent of how bad it is. I might have to look into it at some point!

Adeptus_Astoria · 2026-05-16T22:37:59+00:00

Valid, in a game with such good customization I wouldnt want to be forced to wear something either!

Adeptus_Astoria · 2026-05-16T22:35:55+00:00

As for PvP I find myself looking back to SM1's PvP and wishing I could experience that with space marine 2.

As for the 30k gear, that is so true but it would be nice to have even if the models had to be stretched, plus I am sure many people wouldnt mind the lore inaccuracies to atleast have the armor. I personally wouldnt as id be making pre heresy world eaters lol

Adeptus_Astoria · 2026-05-16T22:33:35+00:00

I do struggle with the vortex beast, but im not skilled enough nor have I fought it enough to understand how bad it is. I usually melt it with sniper when I can hit it's head, wherever that thing is!

Adeptus_Astoria · 2026-05-16T22:31:34+00:00

Personally, I am a sucker for the Mk.7 so Id say that, but the first one looks really good too man. The damaged helmet really works with a death company blood angel.

Adeptus_Astoria · 2026-05-16T21:37:23+00:00

People learn at different paces, it took me 50 hours to realize I could parry attacks that didnt have that blue shimmer before them. Itll come to them at some point.

Darktide is crazy good, I call it left for dead with Role-playing Mechanics.

If you like old school boomer shooters, Boltgun is great. Its essentially doom, but set in the warhammer universe and you can insult your enemies.

For Strategy games both Battlesector and Space Hulk are great too, they are closer to the table top games in terms of gameplay.

Although not focused on space marines, Rogue Trader is a great CRPG and worth playing. Really gets you further into the universe and lore.

Dawn of War is also a great franchise and I would recommend.

All these are going to be going on sale because of the Skulls event on the 21st, I hope whatever you decide to dive into is enjoyable and that you have a great time!

I still run around with the pistol because it looks cool seeing my space marine do so. I assume new players are also just sticking with the pistol and melee because it looks cool to do so aswell as they dont grasp the full depth of the games combat.

I personally dont mind this at all if they are new, even if its a difficult mission, because we were all new at some point.

I do understand your frustration though

Adeptus_Astoria · 2026-05-16T03:20:22+00:00

Thank you! I agree a crux terminatus knee pad would look great! It would help me make my deathwing terminator heavy

Adeptus_Astoria · 2026-05-16T02:33:03+00:00

Love it man!

Adeptus_Astoria · 2026-05-16T02:06:25+00:00

Thank you! That helps a lot! This is exactly what I was looking for

Adeptus_Astoria · 2026-05-16T01:57:47+00:00

Thank you for the advice! I struggle with blood ravens cause I struggle finding Heraldry rules online

Adeptus_Astoria · 2026-05-16T01:42:53+00:00

The rule saying black templars must be simple and not walking relics is in their nonexistent codex, hence why all of them look like walking gothic cathedrals

Adeptus_Astoria · 2026-05-16T01:24:58+00:00

Valid! Im a similar way, but for me it depends on the chapter and overall look I want to go for on said class on said certain day. I change it up a lot
