YOU SHALL ALL FALL TO THE MIGHT OF THE IMPERIAL NAVY!
Why does the chaos fleet make people so salty? At least they're not the fucking Eldar. Fuck knife-ears and the people who play them.
>>337455376
I suppose it's because Chaos likes to kite folks with their long range lasers and then when cards wont fall into their hat, they just keep on running around the map till the timer runs out.

Interestingly enough I don't have problems with Chaos and eldar - but then I have a nova cannon fleet.

This game have good single player or is it all about the multi?
>>337456142
Singleplayer works sorta like xcom.
You go around the gothic sector defending it against the eldar, orks, heretics and sedition 8rebelling imperials), the more ground the opponents hold the more they attack.
Also the overarching story is Abaddons 12th crusade through the gothic sector, so you gotta beat Abby, his planet killer and the blackstone fortresses he captures.
You gain levels as you play and open ship slots on which you can pick ships from a list, the said ships level up after battles, gaining crew experience and upgrade slots, also you can use favors on them, getting ships filled with space marines or mechanicus tech priests, summon cobra class destroyers or use the inquisitions powers to gain better crew and see one enemy per use of the emperors tarot.
Ids breddy gud.
>>337456142
Singleplayer is solid, but the AI isn't too bright when it comes to using the Eldar.
Multi is nice, but you learn quickly just how fucked the game's balance is. Kinda like in the tabletop.
>>337456492
This.
>>337456472
Do you only play Imperium in the campaign?

>Also the overarching story is Abaddons 12th crusade through the gothic sector
I like how the campaign allows you to contradict the BFG canon in little ways.
>>337456834
Yes. The campaign follows the background of the original tabletop game. It was mainly the Imperium's war, even if the Eldar were instrumental in helping defeat the Despoiler.
>>337456961
Well the Eldar themselves are doing their best in trying to make suicide charges into ork forces.

Bumping with art from Vice-Admiral Drawfag.
Probably one of BFG:A's biggest problems is its bugs. It has some really bad ones. Some get fixed only for players to discover another.

Yeah camera bug is nasty - but the worst one is the ship throwing bug - seen a ship spin across the map taking out half the ships along the away on ramming damage.
>>337461267
I've seen the ship throwing bug at least once. The camera bug was actually the worst shit, but at least they fixed it.
Now we have to deal with duplicates of the same line ship being spawned.
>>337461267
Like this?
>>337462135
Yep thats the bug.
Also is it me or are the end explosions getting more intense?
>>337462135
Kinda like that.
What I saw was a slow variant, in which the ship tried to turn but ended up spinning till it went outside the playable area and beyond.
>>337462493
With me they don't even attempt to spin, instead they just start flying in a straight line and never return.
Which reminds me of my battle against Abaddons planet killer...
>Manage to move halfway across the map without taking any damage
>Move my light cruiser and a destroyer around an asteroid field to his rear
>Move my ships, a overlord, that carrier cruiser and retribution near him
>Engage in a melee
>Light cruiser ends up dying under his lance barrage
>Overlord loses control and drifts out of the map
>Cruiser gets nuked by shoop da whoop cannon because it didn't have micro warp jump and i noticed the warning light halfway through its time
>Ultimately its just my Retribution class battleship and the planet killer
>All orders on cooldown, Abaddons ship is almost dead but so is my Retribution
>Overlord far outside the map and its drawing the entire heretic fleet towards itself with all chaos ships in the map bunched up near the map corner where they are closest to that overlord
>Decide to die a heroes death and so i send my near dead Retribution towards the planet killer at ramming speed
>Ram damage and the explosion of my ship force abby to retreat
>After that the end cinematics play where abbys blakcstone fortresses are going to nuke the star
>My admiral who has essentially lost all of his ships offers to stay behind and get Ravensburg and rest of the fleet enough time to withdraw
>Abridal, the real human bean kamikazes the energy beam with his ship and saves the day
>Game ends
RIP my Emperor battleship - she died in a blaze of glory, taking out an Retribution, and 2 Luna's in one glorious explosion.

Can't you move the camera by clicking the wheel of your mouse?
>>337466489
When it enters the side view mode bug - no
>>337459624
Some of the bugs were pretty fun tho.
>first time with eldars on beta
>press speed boost
>for some reason it does not deactivate
>have battleship and two shadows going at 1344 speed until they crash into something
If the server is really laggy you can also launch multiple salvoes of torps. My personal record is 1 salvo from atocast and 6 from clicking the icon after the autocast.
>>337456142
>>337456492
I just finished the campaign. It's pretty fun early on but turns into a very repetitive grind after the first couple of chapters. The game just expects you to fight a few too many generic missions while you wait for the next Nemesis/story mission to appear. Also Convoy missions are freaking cancer early on when you have a small fleet and lack the ships/firepower to effectively kill the transports.
>>337465618
Is this just a novelization of the Fire Warrior game?
>>337459624
Yeah I've had numerous times where I've been aiming Nova cannons, press to fire and the ability just goes on cooldown and nothing happens.
>>337467364
yah
>>337455159
Which xenos have the most attractive women?
>>337467269
>lack the ships/firepower to effectively kill the transports.
?
You can kill the transport by ramming them with your Dauntless and escorts are fast enough to continually fire at them at short range.
>>337467578
Eldar.
If abhuman count then Felinid depending on how GW decide to represent them: they can either choose the furry path or the anime catgirl way.
Also fanart can make everything attractive/lewd.
Oh and screw all those 'you get 300 points+allies instead of full points' missions in the campaign. Especially on something like Planetary Assault it becomes freaking impossible to deal with 600-700 points of enemies using 300 points yourself since usually the allies are fucking useless.
>>337459624
Don't know if they fixed it yet, but in the week or two after release I lost quite a few games because i'd have a mutiny and it wouldn't let me click execute so half my fleet would jump away
