Pre-order just went live on PSN:

 

[Stafford]

It looks great, as always. But one thing....

In the trailer it says 3 player co-op mode Operations. Makes it sound like it's separate from the story campaign. I truly hope we DO get to play the story in co-op.

 

[FunkMiller]

I desperately want this to be good, but still not sure how much of an impact that fucking idiot has had on the writing and characterisation.

 

[MiguelItUp]

One of my most anticipated this year.

 

[CuteFaceJay]

if it runs decent on the Steam Deck will prolly pick up.

 

[Draugoth]

 

[Stafford]

Googled it and Polygon says this.

Space Marine 2 will have a single-player campaign and a co-op three-person campaign that can be played with friends or AI teammates.

That sure sounds like a seperate campaign to me. Otherwise why not say a SP campaign that is also available for co-op? Hopefully both are well put together.

 

[ShaiKhulud1989]

Still cheaper than my latest plastic Baneblade from GW, I guess.

 

[Punished Miku]

I'll definitely pick it up eventually. Not a $70 game for me, but looks fun.

 

[ShaiKhulud1989]

Not a $70 game for me

SP Campaign
Separate co-op campaign
12-player PvP

Seems like a complete package for the price to me.

I don't think I'll play co-op or PVP personally. Glad you're excited. It looks good. Maybe reviews will sway me.

 

[Hudo]

Please be good.

Well, about that...



But that's great news to me. I must have missed this last year.

The better then! Still well worth the asking price, IMO.

 

[GymWolf]

Boring hordes aside, it looks pretty slick, please be good.

 

[Space Runaway]

Is it really just a buncha Zerg the whole game? Where's all the Orcs and shit?

 

[FunkMiller]

Well, shit. The customisation thing has me by the balls....as long as I can go full on Alpha Legion.

This is going to have to pull some major bullshit to stop me buying it day one.

Who?

Zerg? What kind of homosexual talk is this?

 

[FunkMiller]

Who?

There was a writer on the game called Ashley Cooper. Full on screaming Era-type who hates straight white dudes, according to his social media. Hopefully was long off the game before it came together - but nobody knows for sure.

 

[Bartski]

In. Booking time for September!

Oh. Yeah then I hope so too. I've had enough preaching in games and I am not even white.

 

[VeganElduderino]

looks fuckin great , not many games I'm looking forward too , this is one!

 

[Heaven Angel]

I'm highly interested in Single Player mode than the rest which looks pretty dope. But I'll get standard edition, not supporting that 4 days early access BS.

 

[Space Runaway]

Zerg? What kind of homosexual talk is this?

Flippant remark to describe the bland and samey-looking enemies doing horde rush attacks in all the gameplay footage. =P

Which fucking idiot are we talking about? There are many...

I can see it now.

The Space Marines lay down their Bolters & Chainswords and admit they've been wrong about everything, more so incredibly wrong about the male white devil God Emporer and pay reparations to the innocent Orcs, Elder & Tyranids. Few planets.

Chaos get fuck all for their male privilege.

A huge kumbaya happens, Imperium of man collapses and is replaced by REEEEEEEE mods Nepenthe cosplaying as an Orc.

 

[Apocryphon]

Is it really just a buncha Zerg the whole game? Where's all the Orcs and shit?

No. The Tyranids (7 types confirmed so far) will make up most enemy types for sure, but Second Sons Chaos Space Marines, possessed Terminator armour, and Exalted Sorcerers are also confirmed.

It looks awesome and I'm fucking here for games that have campaign, coop and PvP and aren't called call of duty.

 

[YOU PC BRO?!]

I’ll buy it as long as there are no female Custodeans…

 

[FunkMiller]

They're hiding an awful lot about the enemies in this game, from what I've heard.

 

[March Climber]

I hope the Gears of War audience will give this game a shot like they did with the last game. It's a shame they didn't release a console remaster of 1 alongside this.

 

[Ammogeddon]

The only game I’m looking forward to this year. Glad to see I’ll be able to apply a Black Templars skin too.

 

[darth.shrimp]

Q: Will the game include microtransactions?
A: There aren't any microtransactions in Space Marine 2. No in-game cash shop. All gameplay content and features will be free to all players. Any paid DLCs will be cosmetic only.

Will probably still be DLC hell for cosmetics, but at least it's not a Gladius situation again.

Also, are we going to talk about that Space Marine drop-kicking a Tyranid in the last trailer or not?
