I simply was so happy to see that there is a new W40K pc game on the horizon.

I have to put my whishes for the game down.

1)Highly detailed units that you will be able to zoom into, like Rome: Total War and the new Ground Control 2.

2) Space Marines from different Chapters.

3) Chaos, Eldar, Orks, Tau and Tyranid even if it comes out in expansion packs.

4) Custom Game options to have skirmish modes with different terrains/planets/hulks whatever.

5) It would be really cool if you can also have a kind of Sub game or two game modes where you can play as the might Ships of Battle Fleet Gothic. For instance you do Space combat and then proceed to the Tactical land based RTS. Just a dream really. With Homeworld 1 and 2 relic can easily make a Battle Fleet Gothic type game or Space Combat RTS for Dawn of War.

6) Ability to customise squads with weapons and Libarians etc. Almost like Chaos gate used too

7) Titans!!!!!!!!


Well that is it for now.

Cheers
Gian

1) Couldn't agree more
2)Would be nice but not at the expense of other races
3)Why put them in expantion packs and have everyone fork out xtra money?
4)Almost for sure
5)Nice xtra but a bit unreasonable
6)No. End of story.

Alright, a really big dream that won't see the light of day:

A persistant RTS game world, where there is an entire universe (say, a dozen or so worlds). You would start out regardless of which side at your homeworld, then you would be able to view the battles that were going on at the different planets, see which ones your side was doing well in or losing at, and the different scenerios available to participate in at that time. After selecting the locale, you could then select your forces, then select the option to deploy your troops.

Some missions could be to take installation X, destroy an enemy headquarters at Y, defend territory Z for a 24 hour period and more. Maybe an open war option where there would be just armies fighting the entire time, or maybe whichever side held control over an area would have special missions available for their race alone.

There could be maybe 8 or so players at a time at any given mission controlling their own forces, and when a new player would join the fight it would be in a drop-in sort of fashion, drop ship dumping troops and all just like in Ground Controls's drop in internet games.

At the end of every week, the results could be posted, and the performance of every player would be on display, from kill ratios, point to point ratios, contributions to the total points for their side and more. Also allowable would be the option of creating your own chapter, craftworld etc, just as in people creating their own gaming clans and participate in sanctioned events, or have special worlds that different clans could fight over for an overall rank increase of your clan on the official registry (imagine having your chapter taking on a craftworld, winning, and seeing that the chapter of you and your friends was now in the top ten of the world!).

Too much to ask for, yeah, but something I would LOVE to see in the future.

LoL...TITANS...mmmm yes, but that should be in like an 'epic' game...i mean, think of the overlord in C&C crushing a tank, then multiply size of both by like 100 lol
