Hope this is a good one. Big fan of the WH40k world and played the old Space Hulk PC game in the early 90s.

Saw some beta gameplay footage and it looked pretty good.

I'm hoping they do justice to the environment of the hulks. For example, hulks made up of various ships mangled together, 3 dimensional environments, ships from various factions and time periods, etc.

I actually posted another thread with yt link about this.  I really want it to rock, but the few beta previews I've found indicate it's rather unpolished & has some real bugs.  The developer is promising to deliver the goods, but I'm remiss to preorder at this point based on that.  It releases this coming Fri, so the reviews will be in soon.

ETA, looks like they've listened to the beta feedback & delayed release to mid Dec.

I'm contemplating it, but I don't want to get burned.  Guess I'll decide by tonight.

I was just about to preorder, but looks like they delayed it for a week to work out some of the bugs.

Steam reviews are mixed.  Apparently it still lacks optimization & has some bugs.  A few Steam reviewers are commenting on the gameplay being repetitive, but I'd have to sample it.

I think I'll wait for it to get patched before deciding.  Right now, I don't think my 780 GTX can carry it.

I'll wait as well. As far as repetition, I pretty much expect that given the nature of the game.

It's extremely buggy.

Load times in excess of 10 minutes.

Controls getting locked, cant do anything.  Have to quit game.

Game locks up randomly.

Very buggy.

Played it last night.  The "spacebar" command function to tell your AI teammates instructions just plain suck.  It's terrible.  Very difficult to mouse over to what you want to execute.

I may wait to replay this after a few patches.

10 minutes?

Shame is, if they can fix it, it might be a pretty damn good game.  The gameplay I've seen from streamers looks fun as hell, but I am a 40k nerd.

I'll be waiting for it to come out on xbox.

Yes, 10 minute + loads.  Basically game locks up and doesn't finish loading.  If it does finish, you've sat there for 10+ minutes.

The game is horribly buggy right now.  Bugs that have been around since beta, losing controls randomly, cant shoot, cant do anything.  Crashing, all kinds of shit.

They pushed launch back a couple days, wasn't enough time to fix the bs.

Hope they patch it soon to fix these issues!  I liked what I played, but damn.
