Space Marine 40K Multi CoOp - Success is measured in blood

[Gusington]

OK so it's like Left 4 Dead then. If some of you are around late, let me know. I hope to play some Space Marine after Warlock at around midnight EST if anyone is still awake.

Awake? Yes.

Sober? Not likely.

[Gusington]

Even better.

Calling all Marines.... time to go kill the Green Skins...

I just saw the Steam note that you went on. I have a Warlock match in a few minutes but I can definitely meet up to play some Space Marine after that.

Death and destruction goodness....

Ah. ok. we have this game for the Xbox 360. Not bad, but somehow it could have been so much more given this cool license. On the 360 there are only a few still playing it, situation better on the PC front? Anyway have fun folks  :)

Dunno.  I haven't found it very compelling, despite the WH40K setting.  Very console action-game where you're bashing a couple buttons over & over while being led down a hallway the whole way through.  :-[   I kinda expected that, from the description, so wasn't surprised.

I can see where multiplayer would probably be the most interesting way to play it, if only for more BOOM.  *shrug*

I loved it, but it was my first WH40K PC game.

Around tonight for MP very late if anyone else is.

Wait, really? Not even Dawn of War 1?

You should quickly rectify that inadequacy! I'm not sure if DoW2 ever got up to snuff (I could never get it to run well on my old system), and Soulstorm's two factions (Sisters of Battle and Dark Eldar) are rather buggy, but Dark Crusade has a very decent campaign (the first two games also do but they don't play much like the skirmish/mp mode) and skirmish/mp; and well-respected mods like DowPro make the vanilla game even better. (Although since the feds shut down a lot of file transfer services I don't know where to get the mods now.)

A strong contender for best RTS I've ever played; also a good system to learn RTS games on.

I have all the DoW2 games ready to go...just need the time.

The single-player Chaos Rising game is the epitome of the genre. The Taint function is awesome. Russ' balls! It even corrupted Jarhead. Fortunately Fenris' finest are above falling to the temptation of using tainted gear.

Not to derail this distinguished site but I'm afraid I'm an achievement whore.  So here goes...

I'm looking to boost either DOW2 or DOW2: Chaos Rising.  Need to complete one mission on co-op.  Any takers?  I'll return the favor for anyone wanting to boost a cheevo.

If you can't find someone LMK. I think it's still installed. If not, I should be able to get it downloaded and going with a couple hours' notice.

I'm not really sure of what you speak.  But a "Taint function" sounds horrific.  Just horrific!

^^Thanks LB.  I'll keep you in mind.  I should probably schedule an event on our Steam site.
