Looks really good, hope they work on the controls a bit as they seem a bit complicated.
Can't wait.
Edit: If it's Blood ravens or Ultramarines I will kill someone. There's dozens of chapters, pick a new one dammit.

A few points...
1: The game looks awesome.
2: A leak of a super secret project eh? Then why does it have a running commentary stuffed with more buzzwords than a Nintendo convention?
3: Buzzwords. Seriously. Cinemactions? Orchestrating your ballet of death!? That doesn't make any sense. It's a space Marine!

The character looks like a marine sergeant. Much better as a melee fighter as he only carries a bolt pistol and chainsword.
In tabletop, Marines are equally good at ranged or melee fighting.
Seriously though, you want to make a melee focused 40k game, the player character should really be an Ork.
I can see what they're trying to do and I think that the focus on melee would be pretty good so long as they don't completly forget the ranged part of the combat (after all, as some people have said, Space Marines are skilled in both ranged and melee combat like most players).
Of course, all of these innovations for combat and design will be for nothing if they miss out the requirement of a good storyline. If it ends uo being an endless repetition of cleaving aliens with no real motivation or reason, no amount of pretty design will save it then.

It looks pretty cool for a first build but why on god's earth is it 3rd person action not 1st person shooter?
Space Marine is the perfect excuses for a shooter character who can soak big quantities of damage and take on everything. It should be going into special 3rd bits for special combat things not as a default. I want to shoot Orks in the face with a bolter damnit!
Argh, well fingers crossed it will be okay at what it's trying to do.

This looks promising I've really been waiting for a good non-RTS Warhammer game for a long time. and at least Chaos is in it if not a playable group (I play them in the table top game). It would be nice to see how many of the other races would be like to fight against like the agile and quick Eldar, after all there are lots of armies in the game it would be a shame if others didn't make a big appearance.
Why the space marines.... why...their entire existance is an abomination to the term 'Game Balance' and in general they have all the personality of a mediocre grade of mineral ore.
dissappointed! Their trying to make a Captain of a squad a main melee focus in the game, at least thats what it looks like at this moment. You should "i agree" be an ork or maybe a khorn berserker, at least an assault marine or something which really :does: have a mainly melee purpose.GloatingSwine post=9.70635.698703 said:

And unloading a clip into what essentiallly is a guardsman doesn't kill it?!?!
LIES!

This looks terrible. Stiff animations, non existent combat system and repetitive finishers don't really impress. Granted it is still an early build (that explosion was lulzy) and they have time to improve, but I can see this as becoming a generic 7.0 game.
well good news on the hunt to figure out what chapter it might be. the marine sergeant is carrying a full sized bolter not a bolt pistol and there are only 2 groups in the table top game that i know of who can do that, Space Wolves, and Plague Marines. and it sure isn't a Plague Marine. although the colors on the armor didn't really look Space Wolfish
