I wasn't saying the SIPS should be bad because orks, I was saying it should be normalized because well.... 80% reduced SIPS on a gun.... wat? It doesn't make sense from a fluff aspect, but it's a video game; fluff has to be suspended in some aspects.
Very much so. I know it's been discussed what could possibly be on Arkhona to get 5 LSM chapters, 5 CSM Legions, and 5 Eldar craft worlds baring down on it. Personally, I find it highly amusing that the Astartes seem to have well over 1k in active marines. I mean each one can loose like 50 or so per battle. Just straight up dead and never to fight in the Emperor's service.
I'm still trying to decide on what's so important on this planet that we all keep fighting each other. Orks make sense, we fight anyone and everyone just for fun. Everyone else generally has a strategic goal in mind. But that's another thing that'd make the game great but wouldn't work for a Lobby Shooter. *sigh* Forgive me while I reminisce about the golden pre-Alpha days when this game was going to be open-world with permanence.
I miss those days as well. I wanted nothing more than to get a trukk and skwad of boyz to get around, krumpin' their back lines. I may be a Kult o' Speed git, but I like ta fink I'm as kunnin' as any Blood Axe. Perhaps, if we're particularly lucky, we'll get something that resembles what we were expecting/hoping for. But now is not the time or place to discuss such things. Let's try to stay positive, eh?
I've tried staying positive, but I've been at this long enough to lose my plucky white-knight armor. I'm a cynical asshole nowadays, I've found it helps my sense of disappointment if I have no hope. Hey look, the Space Marines were right! Hope IS the first step on the road to disappointment.
At least the necrotic chainsword is resisted by Eldar and some others. Noone resists the burny choppa. nerf it nerf it nerf it NERF IT!!!
