Warhammer 40k First Person Shooter

[mad benji89]

i would like a game where u would play as the dark elder that would be cool because there not the most strongest of spieces in 40k so they would have to use there speed and stealth alot more than most of the other armies

or witch hunters might be a fair compermise between space marines and the imperial gaurd because they do have power armour but there not as over beefed out as the space marines so things would seem harder to kill but if i was one i know i would just use the flamer all the time lol

Of course they should, it would be easy. Set it up as a small elite squad of Space Marines is attached to an Imperial Guard warzone to undertake extremely dangerous work.

Tutorial Chapter: Scout training on homeworld.
First Chapter: Imperial vs. Traitor Guard/Uprising in a built up / urban zone fighting alongside Cadians.
Second Chapter: Imperial vs. Ork is a jungle environ fighting alongside Catachans.
Third Chapter: Marines vs. Tyranids in an deserted ice world (everyone butchered).
Finale: Imperial vs. Chaos Space Marine lead attack on your Chapter's homeplanet.

They're already making one.
Well, a third person. But it's a shooter nonetheless. So far it doesn't seem to flow so well, but I just saw gameplay from the first build of the game. You play as a Space Marine and all that.

It's more of a God of War rip off than anything else. The shooting is minimal.

They actually scrapped that and changed developers. It looks far better, and is more like a co-op action rpg: http://xbox360.ign.com/dor/objects/14352257/warhammer-40000-space-marine/videos/spacemarine_trl_battle_52709.html

What I'd like to see is a FPS like call of duty with the Imperial Guard. It'd be perfect playing through all the famous regiments. A space marine FPS would play more like Serious Sam with tons of enemies at once.

two words: Space Hulk. If only GW would let someone revive that game.

Yeah, people shouldn't be so down on Space Hulk; it was good for its time. Plus you played as my boys, the Deathwing Terminators.

Saw that a while ago. I still think the obvious thing is small squad based FPS with a Space Marine. It is so shockingly obvious I kind of want to grab GW's digital media team and slap them around for a while till they realise why its so obvious:

1) You get to play through the eyes of a Space Marine which hasn't yet been done (well). None of this 3rd person rubbish, actually from the POV of the Emperor's finest.

2) A legitimate excuse for a tough as nails FPS protagonist. Stacks of armour, bio-engineered physique and a will of iron.

3) Weapons. It is perfectly reasonable to generate a large arsenal for a Marine to use. Bolt Pistol starting sidearm (later replaced with a plasma pistol). Boltgun main assault rifle (with attachments for combi-plasma, combi-flamer, combi-melta) and special ammunition. Special weapon pick ups in the form of Plasma guns (scarce ammo & over heat), Meltaguns (short ranged & powerful, like a super shotgun) and Flamers. The occasional heavy weapon pick up (Heavy Bolter, Missile Launcher, Lascannon, Plasma Cannon, Multi-Melta). Melee weapons a plenty (chainsword, power sword, power fist, lightning claw). Then you have the grenades!

4) Good excuse to be the elite squad that goes in and wins the day!

A tactical shooter like GRAW would be interesting, imagine trying to be tactical with a squad of orks and their mechanical chaos.

If you're gonna do that, you have to use...

KOMMANDOS! [http://www.puolenkuunpelit.com/kauppa/images/komma.gif] Splinter Cell... Ork Style!

Actually, that'd be awesome.

Like people said in previous posts there is a WH40k FPS, Fire Warrior to be more specific, it's from 2003 and it's kinda a breah of fresh air compared to other FPS-es. Though if it were up to me, I'd want a FPS where you get to play as a Vindicare Assasin, just like Puppetmaster24 said.
