That trailer was rad, the camera pan across the swinging blade was really cool, the music was great.

That music made no sense and if there's one thing I expect from a StreumOn, it's for nothing to make any loving sense. The best way for them to hype this game to me is for everything to be as nonsensical as possible and they are off to a good start.

The fact that the music doesn't fit at all, and the trailer is all about poo poo exploding, burning and slashing with StreumOn behind brings me hope. They better include Brozeps as coins.

It looks like Streum On is making a WH40k Space Hulk game, and it has a cool trailer
One of the first sentences that caught my eye when I scrolled down to the comments was "Sadly, KKK isn't present in my motherland". :psyduck: I, uh, nope. Not gazing further into that abyss.

So of course I look down at the comments and the first one I see is requesting they use Dragonforce instead :rolleyes:
Yeah, because you see, nothing says "badass" like some colourful happy happy wheeeee flower metal.
I guess those kids have never heard of Bolt Thrower.

Anyways, It's good to see Streum On working on actual WH40k. That trailer is the tits and the absurd music is great. Not fitting, but very fittingly unfitting.
I'm optimistic, but very carefully so because Cyanide is also involved.

Now if only someone made a Chaos Gate 2...

I think Cyanide is only involved on the publishing side of things.

I came across it because I'm subcribed to Focus Home Interactive's youtube channel; I looked at Streum On's website and it hasn't been updated since around when the multiplayer patch went into EYE. I get the impression that they've been absorbed into Cyanide based on that and the fact that Cyanide's name is also on the game website, but I don't know anything for fact. My sincere hope is that GW approved Streum On's design decisions for a 40k game, Cyanide is maybe providing some additional coding support where labor is needed, and Focus is publishing it all. Because a 40k Deathwing Space Hulk FPS designed by Streum On is basically a dream come true.

And that music was an incredible choice. I might be an old metal head, but hip hop and latin music both make for a a really engaging groove, far more so than math metal and only two minutes of a soaring orchestra. That poo poo owned.

I think their music trolling is intentional, I love WH40k universe but I've learned that WH fanboys can be huge crybabies when it comes to immersion, so if they put another trailer with Whitney Houston singing I will always love you I'm all in :mrgw:

I'd love a slow-motion, no sound effect scene of mass carnage, exploding crewmen and people dying horribly to the Tyranid menace with a single dying crewman looking up to see the Termies teleporting in and carving them to pieces to the Celine Dion track from Titanic.

And the guns sounded loving brutal for their time, and all the battle taunts were just 110% WH40k.

Does the wh40k universe have a canon currency? Relic gave us Blood Ravens, why can't StreumOn give us brosefs?

Seconding the brosefs thing. I also want the bearkiller even if it's not cannon.

I think the worst thing about the 40k community is how some people really embrace the shitshow that is the imperium. They think it's actually a cool place that they want to live in. I don't quite think they "get" the universe despite dedicating decades of their life to it.

The Throne is the Imperial currency in 40K, Orks on the other hand use their teeth, which grow back rapidly.

Crawling in some tunnels, meta-streumonic creatures all over the place. Apparently there's a special one lurking around somewhere.

"It's coming!!" my contact informs me.

A scrawny little alien looking thingy emerges from a vent. *THWUP* says my Motra SMG, the creature falls dead from a single bullet.

"You have killed a Supreme Beast!"

This game is absurd as hell and I love it.

It's not quite time for an OP and a hype train yet, but this little piece makes the 40k game sound even more exciting.

Some notable points from that article:

-Variety of guns and melee weapons that are unlockable through "hunting down important artefacts and relics"
-Up to 4-player co-op
-A.I. squad members you can order on a tactical map and equip differently (not sure if players take the place of them)
-Non-linear maps with different pathways to take going to both primary and secondary objectives
-Locational damage
-"psychic Librarian powers that you’ll come to unlock"

I feel like a lot of that stuff can be trusted considering those points were mostly the things that E.Y.E. already did really well. Can they make it a hilariously incomprehensible clusterfuck again too, that remains to be seen. I'm also interested in seeing what kind of customization there ends up being in the end, like if there will be stats like in E.Y.E. or classes or something else.

I wonder if they are going to do structured missions like EYE or more open "go into space hulk and gently caress poo poo up".

Remember how in EYE you could go into any of the maps once you completed them and do random little submissions for xp and brosefs? I hope it's something like that, but in the windy claustrophobic hell of a space hulk.

I'm a lot more optimistic after reading there will be gun using enemies because fighting the Metastreum was really dull and tedious in EYE.
