Is nobody else depressed about having 3 factions again? Wouldn't 0, 2,or 4 be better?

Also, the featured marine chapter is Black Templars, which if i remember correctly don't even allow Librarians as they are "too impure". Really, the only worse choice for an alliance with eldars would have been the Dark Angels.

OP wants to avoid the cyclical nature of PlanetSide but what the real deal is is that the cyclical nature is needed, and without it no MMOFPS would be possible. No matter how many factions you have, you need the game to be cyclical so that it can be played for years. If you could keep what you gain permanently... well... I don't even need to explain why that would be bad.

Also: I've already given up on WH40k MMO. If its not an MMOFPS with at least the scale of PlanetSide, then I don't care about it. Also Imperium/Space Marines or Imperium/Tau would be much better if it was versus Orks/Chaos, but w/e.

Well. Being the OP.

My true complaint in the OP is about the game's cyclical nature. Some have caught onto this and they have given helpful responses and information about how the devs have already planned to remove the "cyclical nature" from the game via a new, more granular, lattice system. I'm a dynamic person and I'm not averse to having my mind changed. I was presented with superior logic, and my mind was changed. There is hope for a three faction system in PS:2.

But sadly most people just cheer, "3 ftw! Cuz its teh BeSt!"... burying the actually helpful posts.

I'll update the OP to include the actual results of the thread and use it to educate the community. Since the helpful posts are on page three or four, buried under the refuse, and most people don't get that far when reading through forums...
