    You do realize you *will* be sacrificed to Khorne should your honeyed words be false? The ruinous powers have little time for ta-BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD.

    Who do I have to sacrifice and... other things...

     

    to be a Daemon of Slaanesh?

     

    I know Daemons aren't announced in any way shape or form (not even as something to do with Chaos Space Marines) but they would be quite tricky to pull off, although I bags playing a Keeper of Secrets!

    Q:
    Will daemonic possessions be in the game for both person and weapons?

    A (28.08.2013 Brent):
    It's in the plans for vehicles and weapons. For people, we're still investigating.

    thats how spacehulks are born ;P

    in the year 904.M41  the ancient space hulk named  Caron of Behaviour reemerged from the warp in the proximities of the recruting world of the space marine  chapter "Beta Tester".

    This space hulk it's a massive conglomerate of many space ship, the adeptus mechanicus  priest have identified many lost ship metled in the Caron of Behaviour:

    the ancient  emperor class battleship http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/game/954

    the huge ork  Hammer battleKroozer  http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/780/537854.page

    the ark mechanicus https://twitter.com/40kcrusade

    the lost  battle barge of the vigilia mortis chapter http://www.battle-brothers.net/forum

    the dragonship http://eternalcrusader.com/

    the corrupted despoiler class http://thefirstfounding.com/

     

    Inside the horrors of this space hulk, have been detected one of the greatest  holy relic of the imperium, the ancient and revered "eternal crusade forum".

    The beta tester chapter must recover and restore the ancient relic at any price.

    The entire chapter assault the Caron of Behaviour, for the glory of the emperor it shall be done.

    The fallen shall be forever remembered as the Emperor's finest.

    The emperor protect.

    hitbox? headshot?

    all the race will have the same hitbox or the body size will be considered?

    als headshot: space marine have backpack and shoulder armor that "cover" the head, and have big body but human size head. Orks have "frontal" head,  it's impossibile to make an headshot from the back of an ork, and really hard make an headshot from the back or side of a space marine. Eldar instead wear bigger "conical" helmets and have a full exposed head.

    also aiming for the head versus orks it's a better idea, because if you miss the head you hit the body, but if you miss an eldar head you make a "full" miss.

    how it will be balanced?

    like the rest of the game - we do not balance on a per character base, war is not balanced! But also this is not an ego shooter where only you skill with your mouse/gamepad is important, it will make a difference if you are very bad, but this is also an RPG. Also for now, a headshot is not an insta-kill, it just does more damage, but that part is up to further testing, life expectation etc is not finalized ;)

    no ego shooter? so no K/D showed or simiar? it's a nice thing for me but i fear a lot of people will whine for no k/d epenis.

    if i remember corectly kharn the betrayer was rewarded with a kill counter. so if they want to go with the lore based rout they could make the kill counter a piece of gear you have to get rather than just a plain hud option ;)

    that way those who want it have to work for there ego stroking and those who dont can just laugh as the chat is filled with others complining about the drop rate or the expense...etc

    Well I won't say no to a Kill Counter or K/D ratios etc, but showing off id not what this game is about, and from experience showing stuff like this makes people behave very differently in a game...as example, if there would be a K/D stat, then many players watch that stat very often, and try to make sure that they don't die in any engagement, just make sure the stat does not get worse, so their playstyle changes. This is not wh40k - a SM who does not run into battle charging and screaming? I think the problem is pretty clear, where bragging rights and showing off is important in PvP, we also want gameplay to be essentially lore like - for now, lets wait, lets get this tested in alpha and beta and adjust and decide stuff like this then!

    hm ya maybe it would change some playstyles

    but statistics are always very interesting, maybe make them not visible to others? so noone need to care about their K/D or other stats cause noone else will see them

    and for the e-penis lovers we could invent a point system that counts together some stats and equals them into a number that let other people imagine what kind of skill that guy has

     

    just some little thoughts :3
