Revision as of 09:45, 2 October 2013
Warhammer 40,000 Eternal Crusade is an MMORPG that was announced at E3 2013 and is slated to be released in 2015. It will be available for the PC, PS4 and the Xbox One/Ten.
Now many of you think that this is such wonderful news, right ? Well... This is still up to debate since the game is being developed by the people who have given us such wonderful titles like Wet, Dante's Inferno (PSP), The Lord of the Rings: Conquest (DS) and Naughty Bear. However, Behavior (the guys making this thing) pulled in talent from all around - especially from Funcom Montreal (Age of Conan, The Secret World). The devs have confirmed that if you buy the game, you unlock all the premium content (IE rest of the races), and that Dark Angels and Iron Warriors are *not* the only Space Marine/Chaos Space Marine chapters present. Orks are the only f2p race as of now, and the devs are hoping this will make them outnumber the rest of the other factions, as each Ork is independently weaker. So, that is a higher than average understanding of 40k lore, and is typically considered a genius fucking idea.
Races
The game will debut with four main factions, each including several subgroups, and classes. Others will be added later if the game is successful.
Orks
Klans: Goffs, Evil Sunz, Deathskulls, Bad Moons
Classes: Boys(F2P race/class), Nobs, Mekboy, Painboy, Stormboy, Weirdboy
Space Marines
Chapters: Ultramarines, Space Wolves, Blood Angels, Dark Angels
Classes: Tactical Marines, Devastators, Assault Marines, Apothecaries, Techmarines, Librarians
Chaos Space Marines
Legions: Iron Warriors
Classes: Raptors
Eldar
No craftworlds thus far confirmed.
Speculated Classes: Swooping Hawks, Bonesingers, Warlocks. The Avatars of Khaine are rumored to be a second F2P class given how frequent they die to everything, just like Ork Boys.
Tyranids
While Tyranids are confirmed to be in the game, they will not be playable. Instead, they will be an NPC faction, providing enemies for PvE content.
Setting
Now anyone who has knowledge of Warhammer 40,000 obviously knows the setting. However, the games events will be taking place on an unexplored region/sector of the galaxy. One of the devs said in an interview that it will follow a planetwide contest for a single undisclosed planet, and the events that happen from this game will become canon, but the details are yet to be released. don't take his word for it though, devs did say colonial marines would be good.
Monetization
Eternal Crusade is partially F2P. Without paying, players can access the game but are limited to Ork Boyz, who cannot advance beyond a certain degree. Those who buy the game have access to all factions and full advancement. There is no monthly subscription, however a cash shop is planned. Though Miguel Caron mentioned he will have Pay 2 Win "over [his] dead body", players will be able to pay for gear that is not quite top-tier and inferior to the grindy stuff.
Game Features
Read more about the game here
The game will be mostly PvP, happening on one planet at a time. A new planet will be rolled out when a planet is conquered. Tyranids are NPCs and will be used in part to keep things a little bit balanced if player faction numbers are too unequal or one faction is dominating for other reasons. They will also constitute the PvE content, probably all of it. In short:
- PVP oriented with splashes of PVE
- Tyranids are the PVE
…even though they should be a playable faction…HERETIC. NOBODY WANTS TO PLAY AS A NID. THEY ARE NOT FUN.*BLAM* - Combat is visceral/skill based over-the-shoulder dakka/melee
- Vehicles confirmed, but in unknown capacity
- Procedurally Generated content. After planets are conquered a new one is made. All dungeons/PVE content is procedurally generated
- The devs are also interacting with the fans. Which is pretty much unheard of. Ask some fucking questions.
- Players will all get their own space ship which acts as player housing, that you can decorate as you like. Guilds can combine their ships together for larger housing and more options (like guild banking)
- Day/Night cycle
- Weather, which will affect combat
- Friendly fire (if they can find a fair way to implement it)
- Dreads, if they figure out how to implement it
- Perils of the Warp
- Red ones go Fasta
- Executions (ala Space Marine maybe)
- Reviving (talking about examples where a fellow player revives his battle brother)
- No P2W, devs are vehemently against buying power, probably the only things you'll buy in the cash shop will be accessories and visual pieces, and possibly other executions (no change in damage or effect, just a different looking execution)
- Hopefully also playable Squigpipes
- Miguel has a weird thing about Ork butts, as in two interviews he's described Ork butts and executions in the same sentence.
