agreed that both terminator and dreadnoughts should be reserved for veteran players and even then used lightly. I'd like whole battles to be without them sometimes so that when i see one its like 0_0 "omg im going to die...but its so...beautiful :') "
again, lore is all fine and dandy, but in the end its the gameplay that matters, I completely agree we shouldn't have swarms of Terminators, merely making the point that when one has the resources required to field a Terminator, they can field a Terminator, regardless of how many are already present. Getting a Terminator should be very difficult to compensate for the fact that they're not limited. so in a way, I believe we will get what we want. so yeah, in a nutshell difficult to get, not limited to numbers. (before the outcry; Resources people, make them cost lots and lots of resources.) as for the dreadnought, same verse as the first, though so expensive it will melt your eyeballs.
The devs mentioned that the field commander will distribute Resource Points to whom he sees fit. Maybe there will be a set amount of Terminator armor that he can distribute, same with Dreadnoughts. I would be fine with that. You would have to prove your worth to become a terminator
yeah, that sounds like a good idea, although I fear for the lonewolf folks.. then again.. this is 40k.. lone wolfing is pretty dumb.
Terminator armor should only be for high levels yes, but getting dreadnoughts should be an option for those vets that get killed in action.
absolutely, Dreadnoughts shouldnt be available unless you died. It'd be cool if you died but an apothecary came by and "revived" you before you decided to respawn. Then it doesnt actually revive you but since the apothecary prevented your full death you could spawn as a dreadnought or die and respawn normally.
well if you are gonna make terminators and dreads so rare like in the lore, they will have to be pretty much nigh invulnerable to anything other than the strongest guns and melee weapons, but if I remember correctly they are making the game so it take about 5 ork boyz to take on one space marine which isn't even remotely close to lore standards. I'm sure they will be pretty rare but not what you guys are making it out to be. Although I wish it could be just like the lore and how you guys are saying it should be. It would be amazing to take on hoards of orks/nids as a marine with ease.
While I do agree with you and many others also agree with you on the point that there should be a limited number of terminators and dreadnought on the battlefield but it will few problems. 1. This is a game and people will want to play in terminator armors. Limitin one of the most iconic things in the game is bad for business. 2. Lore states that the terminator suit is a relic and plaplapla and is used only in dire sircumstanses. It also says that there is a load of them in the armory. Also dreadnoughts "hibenate" in the armory when they are not in service. Though their number is really really limited so agree that if dreadnoughts are added to the game they should be really really hard to get into the battlefield.
Well, I don't think that drednoughts should be available for players to really use as the person in a drednought is practically dead. Something cool for them to do is if the character has enough requisition when they die they can choose to be a dred instead of respawning normally. (Now I doubt something like that'll happen as it will be super OP but it'd be awesome , wouldn't it?)
