This gameplay trailer for Space Hulk Deathwing looks great, hope it allows co-op:

This looks really good. Sounds like it might have coop: 'Along with AI or other players of the Deathwing', so hopefully coop.

I skipped the last Space Hulk game after the poor reviews, but this one might be worth getting. Will have to keep an eye on it.

They did say co-op. Looks kind of Doom 3/Alien/Halo. Very atmospheric.

I'm not huge into 40K but it looks like a pretty fun shooty dungeon crawler so far!

1 month out from release and not even one gameplay showcase from the devs aside from a couple of short cinematic trailers back in E3.

One would have thought their PR machine would have long kicked into high gear by now.

Not having a good feeling about this. I probably should not have pre-ordered

Yeah I'd like to see some of the usual YouTubers review and play it first, buy $34 isn't too bad.

Never pre-order!

I'll wait for reviews. As mentioned before I don't care for 40K at all but the game concept looked interesting enough to play.

Because Steam is defacto the 100% accepted content distribution platform for the PC and will be for a long time, you fossil wink

You may as well just wait for the verdict in November post-release . I'm one of the idiots who, in a vulnerable and catatonic lapse of judgement, decided to pre-order, much to my chagrin. By Novemeber you will know whether it is good enough to justify jumping in on Steam just to get this game.

I used to think like you having an old fashion disdain towards Steam or anything that require an internet connection to play a game, single player notwithstanding. But I have come around as Steamis a solid trouble-free platform in spite of the archaic internet we have in my country.

Back to Spacehulk Deathwing, they just released a weapons preview, but again this is just a trailer with snippets of footage strung together into a shortish trailer. In as far as a meaty PR campaign with developer gameplay walkthrough and detailed feature showcase, it's a big fat zero.

Even Kingdom Come Deliverance with their shoestring budget constantly put out 1 hour long feature and gamneplay footage/discussions for their Beta.

The dearth of information from the developers about Deathwing is something of concern because the default idea is if you have a good solid product, you will milk the PR machine for all it is worth by stoking up a frenzy with pre-sales prior to release. It's just too quiet at the moment.

Looking pretty good... Harry the Ruskie let us know how it is once you get to play it...

That does look pretty good. Never really took up 40K but the art design, game idea, weapons etc. seem to have a nice lore to it.

Yeah WH40K has some terrific lore.

Here is an analysis of the above from someone who knows the lore:

Thanks Kludger. Lots to like there, some interesting info. I think they made a pretty good gameplay scenario there. "Dungeons with Guns" mixed with "Alien Hordes versus Space Marines" kinda thing.

I saw a bit of TotalBiscuit streaming the Dethwing beta today and his impressions were not very good... so I'm going to wait and see on this one, hopefully they will improve from what is the beta at this point.

That's too bad. A good old fashioned space marine shooter could be fun...and fitting all things considered. I may hold off until Santa brings me my new video card. I doubt I'll able to resist some eye candy then.
I'd like to get something going with the group again regardless.

Yeah same here, going to wait and see, also would like to get back to gaming as a group again... I've been busy getting ready to move so it's been hard to find time.

So has anyone else pre-purchased this? I bought it as I am a fan of the universe. I did play in both Beta periods and came away pretty impressed, although there are some rough edges that can be ironed out. I am just looking for a group of 3 players willing to play through MP campaigns.

The newest trailers look very well done, but it's all rendered. I think they definitely got the lore and art right, but if the game is worth playing... we'll hear later today I guess.
