Well despite how I ever relish the 40k IP, I have to admit that not even my seated 'fanboism' could curtail my utter disappointment with this game. 0 replay value which is further plagued with a dilapidated mp, this really isn't worth full retail price of other games which actually possess replay credentials.
For starters the alleged "epic" campaign wasn't quite so, granted it is the best part of the game by far and it had its sway for awhile with juicy executions and general dismemberment bliss but after awhile its visceral combat parallels the ending of the game which to summarize amounts to a last stand against some waves with an anti climatic boss which devolves into a QTE after which you are further slighted with a 'to be continued' ending to boot, needless to say that's not truly awe inspiring at all. Granted yes it had its moments that I liked it up till this point such as defending the Titan.
Last and yes the least is the archaic arcade pvp which supports only a mere 16 players which is just an atrocity by today's standards (well unless you're a console based kiddie) not to mention non existent dedicated servers furthers this dismay. The final nail in its coffin, they shipped it with 5 maps to play on and all of which say 1 are devoid of any dynamic layout that you'll need in mp with a game like this.
Sadly it seems the last glimmer of hope for this games seemingly bleak future lies with this coined "co-op" that they intend to add in Oct. Just FYI this coop is ostensible in title it shalt be a co-op for the campaign just an added mp game mode basically.
