Thread: WH 40k MMO: What class would you play?

hey i dont say that the adeptas sororitas are not cool or something... i just dont want to see them pushed as "female spacemarine" but rather as an existance of their own

There's a lot of potential in the franchise, it's just not being well realised.

They are making it ! __________________ MURDER

They have already stated that it's an RPG not and FPS . I would imagine it will be an action based RPG, so hopefully more action based than most RPG's but not quite twitch based like FPS titles. Oh and here's the source: Quote: PCG: The gameplay for the tabletop game focuses on squad combat and tactics. How are you translating these elements to an MMO? DA: To preface, let me say that this game will be an RPG. That needs to be...

could be that the game is completely Rouge Trader or Inquisition based. That but only that could exclude Marines by the way what do you people think about the possibility of Armageddon becoming the endgame location? lots of locations, neverending conflict, a few Hives, jungle and desert terrain + there is a whole codex already written down including battle objects for every 40k army

Solid opinions, but then again there are consumate players who are in love with the lore, play the setting maturely, play dark heresy and whatnot, that would love to play a space marine none the less. It's a rich setup, exposing only some of the races/factions as PC will seriously hinder the chances of enjoying it. Lotro got it right, somewhat. __________________ -- Everytime you say level instead of rank, your shoulderpads get 1px...
