Is this game actually good or overrated Reddit tier trash?
>>
>>321113162
It's pretty good, not the best FPS, not the best Star Wars FPS but it's enjoyable the entire way through.

was pretty good when it came out
probably dated as fuck now

Where's my fucking sequel. Ya it's fun to play

Does it have more gun variety than the new Battlefront?

It's actually fun to command your squad to go do things and set up in optimal positions knowing that they can do their job well. There's lots of banter and every character is fun. It's one of the only squad based games where I actually felt like they were helping me as much as I helped them.

My only complaint is that it's much too short.

This is one of those games where people praise it and say it's perfect and they loved it, but you can bet your ass if they started the game up they'd get bored within 20 minutes or so.

Almost every single time.

If you like FPS and you like Clones, you'll like the game. If you like FPS and have no interest at all in Star Wars, you probably won't. If you don't like either you'll absolutely hate it because it's a very generic shooter.

I played it a few years ago and had a blast. It's a very simple game, almost feels like an on-rails shooter, since it's so linear, but the team banter was fucking great.

It's fun, that fact that this guy is in radio contact the whole time is a nice touch. He brings the much needed comedy relief when the squad has nothing to say.
>>
>>321113162
It's a bit of both, it's not actually turbo-amazing, but it's not terrible and whether you like it or not depends on if the strong parts manage to get you. It's a bit more edgy/mature take on Star Wars (but only a bit, though you do get to murder children a couple of times no, really), it has amazing soundtrack (easily the best part) and some nice writing for your squaddies. I like it despite the flaws.

The prequels were much better written, they had actual characters and story, not a bunch of memes and one-liners that lack any emotion or coherence. Luke is a cliched everyboy "hero" that goes through an absurdly rapid transformation between the fifth and the sixth episodes. Anakin's emotional instability and his exposure as a psychopath are gripping; and his doomed relationship with Padme is touching. In the "original trilogy" Han, Leia, Darth Vader and Obi Wan are complete meme characters, nothing about them is remotely believable or human. And why doesn't anyone care about deaths in those movies? Leia's planet destruction, Luke's stepparents' death, all of the blown up rebels--the list could go on--all the deaths are forgotten moments later.

As for direction, the movies from the "original trilogy" were mostly incoherent, badly edited and full of logical problems. The prequel trilogy is a work of a "vulgar auteur".

I feel neutral about the series overall, and honestly don't care about trolling or contrarianism. Here are my sincere rankings:

1. "Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones"
2. "Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace"
3. "Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith"
4. "Star Wars"
5. "The Empire Strikes Back"
6. "Return of the Jedi"
7.
8. "The Force Awakens"


Episode 7 isn't even a Star Wars movies. It is a Marvel flick masquerading as one.

What? That is some heresy right there. Why would you need filthy xeno weaponry when you have the full arsenal of the Deathwatch at your disposal?

But yes Deathwatch game in the vein of RC would be nice.

People who hate the prequels fall into one of three camps.

1. Reddit teenagers who think "prequels suck" because the internet told them to think that. Their brains are literally not developed enough to form opinions outside of groupthink.

2. People who were edgelord teenagers when the prequels came out and "hated" them because they hated everything. Probably just unintelligent in most matters.

3. Baby boomers who won't accept anything but Harrison Ford and Mark Hamill.

The prequels are excellent science fiction movies. Objectively, there is no reason to dislike them.

>Jar Jar

A narrator for children. You might as well hate C3PO too.

>too much politics

Lucas was trying to explain his world and tell a story. If you're really just after POPCORN XD, there are plenty of other shitty franchises to watch.

>bad acting/dialogue

Star Wars always has had and always will have overwrought dialogue, because it is modeled as an epic. In fact, any dialogue involving the force is infinitely more ridiculous in the original trilogy.

>bad CG

It is much better than most films of the time.

The prequels are not bad movies. They are simply not STAR WARS as braindeads in the aforementioned groups understand it. Now Disney has catered to these, combined with the normie "fans" who don't know anything about Star Wars, and produced Avengers IV: Lightsabers, without an ounce of creativity.

This movie is truly bad. It is truly worse than any of the prequels. And it will truly ruin this franchise. Fuck whoever likes The Force Awakens.

http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Deathwatch
>This is because the Deathwatch are not merely intended to cleanse xenos cultures from Imperial space. They are also tasked with the recovery and study of alien devices and artefacts. Sometimes it is necessary to use a weapon against the enemy who created it, although this is never done lightly. The Deathwatch are constantly vigilant for sabotage, or to advise if it is truly safe to use a weapon of xenos origin. The Adeptus Mechanicus are always on the lookout for alien technology; for instance, the C'tan Phase Sword, used by the Callidus Assassins, was recovered from a Necron Tomb World and successfully integrated into the arsenal of the Imperium.
It's a cool excuse for giving the player some cool alien toys, and I did read that they use Tau plasma guns (because they're light and reliable, I guess), though that's been a long time ago. Burst cannons are normally mounted on Crisis suits/tanks, but a Space Marine would probably be able to carry one and hey, it's a plasma minigun, who wouldn't want to use one?

OP, if you're going to play it, see if you experience this graphical problem. Notice the blotchy textures on the clone trooper armor.

To fix this, turn bumpmapping to 'low'.

Everything about the game is above average except the core gameplay, which is extremely standard.

However, since the game knows where to end and doesn't overstay its welcome, along with it having excellent pacing and tone shifts in each level (The ghost ship in particular, holy shit god tier sense of pacing right there), its a really REALLY enjoyable experience.

>>321118360
No they would only ever use un-vetted xeno weapons in the most dire of circumstances. Using them is a form of tech heresy. The xeno weapons it is talking about are usually old relic weapons that have been vetted by the Mechanicus. I know this because I play the RPG, and we had one member running around with a massive fuckoff relic xeno blade which he was using to open doors.

There is a massive range of weaponry available to the Deathwatch that you don't see in regular 40K. Some of the specialised ammo is just nasty. And things like Cryo Grenades are both horrifically effective and fun.
>>
Happened to replay the first 30 minutes just now, first time I played it since it came out.

I'm glad it pretty much holds up as highly as it did in teenage me's mind. Looks like ass, but then it probably was the same on the XBOX HUEG.

More games should do the order shit. It's fun.
>>
>>321119636
Well, they should take some liberties with the lore in this particular case, IMO. Being able to use some of the enemy's guns is more important to me, personally, in a game.
>>
>>321118981
I think it's just that the game is a little old and has problems with newer graphics cards.
>>
Having a blast right now.
Thanks for reminding me of this game, OP.
>>
>>321119918
Well they could do so without breaking the lore in that you could play a more tech orientated Chapter. Maybe a Black Shield, which is a Marine whose Chapter is unknown due to either disgrace or being nearly wiped out. Perhaps have special sanction to use as you see fit. But the rest of the team should keep you at arms length for being a potential heretic. Which could create some nice bants.

The lore is mostly what the setting has going for it. And what draws a lot of people to it. Start to disregard that and we will potentially end up with shit like female Marines. Which are unnecessary because the Sororitas exist and they are badass. You can justify almost anything within the lore, but there are generally going to be consequences and repercussions for things that are heretical or blasphemous.

Yeah, like Ultramarine obviously citing that part of the Codex which forbids using Xeno tech while Raven Guard asking how the damn thing works and where he could get one on a private channel. And if you have a Blood Raven in your team, well, don't be too surprised if your exotic weapon slot is suddenly empty and he's blasting xenos with a gauss gun crudely painted in his Order colors...
>>
>>321121567
Blood Ravens are fun to play in the RPG. I didn't even intend for him to end up falling to Tzeentch but clearly Tzeentch had other plans. At this point he hears the 'Emperor' in his head. And has accidentally summoned one Daemon Prince. Which I used to trample an Eldar Exarch on its way to murder me for summoning it. Perils are fun like that.
>>
>>321122323
That's funny. It didn't attack you because you summoned it (accidentally), or because Tzeentch had other plans for you, or did you just run away? Probably won't be able to answer as I really gotta go, thanks for the chat though.

Halo 5 tried but the AI was dumb as shit
>>
>>321120754
Makes sense, luckily my machine is a piece of shit so I'll be fine

>>321122473
The rules are basically one it is summoned by the Perils, which is when a psyker horrifically fucks up using a power, it doesn't go away until it is either killed or the summoner dies. And it will attempt to kill the summoner. Given its size it has a trample rule. I knew it was coming for me so I moved to have the Exarch in between me and it. So the Exarch got squished on the way through, it killed me, and I had to burn a Fate point so my character wasn't removed from the game due to death. Fate points are basically a fixed number of re-rolls you can use in the game, and they replenish each game, unless you actually burn the point instead of use it for special things like this. I then got to point out that via technicality it did kill me so it would return to the warp, but I still got to live. Just as planned even if no one believed me. Well planned from the point that the thing turned up unplanned.
