I wonder I should get this game for the multiplayer experience or not. Hmm...

Looks fun though..

Hands on the MP part of Space Marine on RPS:

RPS

Sounds actually fun, now I am really tempted to pre-order...

It's a steamwork game right? I want to get it on GG (to get bluecoins) if I can activate it later on Steam.
Plus it's 5usd cheaper right now and they also give the free copy of Darksiders (I can't be bothered with the Blood Angels skin, I have my own colours from tabletop)

Yes it is confirmed with steamwork.

Now I need some time to plan a colour scheme my SM or CSM, with pink as my main colour.

The scream of "HERESY" into my headphone will be epically delicious.

Yar after snooping around found the confirmation, very cool stuff.

Pre-ordered!

FOR THE EMPEROR!~

Only Space Marine and Chaos for multiplayer? What about other races?

Does this game have coop? It's a deal breaker if it doesn't have one.

as in coop campaign?

Yeap.

Pre-ordered from Steam?

From GG and intend to register it to Steam once it's released.
This way I can download it from both parties, I get it 5usd cheaper and I get blue coins from it (plus it made me go Red colour on GG, more discounts in the future).

And the free copy of Darksider given by GG is also registrable on Steam by the way.

I can't be bothered about the Blood Angels skin on Steam and this kind of premium is always released as DLC later on

@Cheese: After looking around it looks like a "Cleanse" mode is announced as Coop in which you can "co-op for up to a squad of five marines taking on wave after wave of enemies"

I can't find an official link to this though but it apparently was leaked in an handson article a while back which has then been put offline.

Some people saying there is some info in it in this Youtube Video (some Dev diary) but since I am in GCG I can't watch Youtube video, maybe you guys can check:

Is there a 10% off for this?

I can't check because I am at work.

I think yes, on Steam it's at 49,95 and on GG it's at 45,95 with "List Price" at 49,95

So that + bluecoins + it's steamwork anyway made it a no brainer to me.

I found this article Clicky-click-clik

There is a sentence that runs "McDermott could tell me that co-op will be in there, but could not tell me any more than that."

So I would say there Coop will be in it somehow but the exact form is yet to be officially announced.

One hand I can understand Relic saying they don't want to release all the info in one go to keep people interested until release date.
On the other hand not giving some crucial details like presence of Coop or not is imo a bad move for pre-order numbers

I have also just pre-ordered Warhammer 40k: Space Marine since I have just gotten my bonus for this year.

Also, I have an extra copy of Darksider to let go for RM30. Anybody interested let me know.

Another dev diary. Fighting forces of chaos with Blood Ravens!

Co-op will be added to Space Marine post-release
