Maybe I can get into this. We'll see how it falls out. But I pre-ordered both expansion packs for DoW, and I've always considered myself fan-lite of Warhammer 40000,

Oh yeah, Fire Warrior sucked as a FPS. You could see your shots drift. The story was OK.

I am interested to get some more details on the MMO. But as long as
I can be a space marine and on a RP server(less Ultramarine F1uffyBunny the better), I shouldn't have many problems.

I also wish someone other than THQ was handling it...

I have this wild hope that they'll see what was done right for DoW and go with that.

Of course, that won't happen. Search Penny Arcade for Kelly Flock.

And it is odd that they aren't using the same dev house.

You could see your shots drift? Then it was just like playing as a Storm Trooper?

I forget now. Is this going to be THQ's first MMO? I mean, they've got the former NCSoft guys, but isn't this their first one? I can just imagine Flock saying "of for the love of ... FINALLY we've got a property that'll be good for a MMO".

But I'm probably wrong.

Hmmm, I wonder if it will be as good as World of Warcraft has turned out to be?

It will also be interesting to see how they manage PvP, races, classes, factioning, and vehicles.
Though I can already see a massive preponderance of Space Marines and Chaos Marines ... xD

For the greater good.
