Explain it yourself, I see it as a direct upgrade of the first game, the only thing I miss is a villain character as memorable as Grimskull and Nemeroth. Imurah doesn't really stick as good

The fact there's a bunch of soft RPG elements and progression trees in co-op
The single player is good and the co-op missions are good for a playthrough but it kind of makes it pointless to go for the higher difficulties since it's basically just a stats game. Which is a shame because the hard difficulty is where the Space Marine games really come into their own

Terminus Decree does nothing.

There's too many small inconveniences that build and don't help what is at its core an 'ok' game hindered by the lack of continued, timely, support.
The hub. I can't be bothered waiting for the loading between matches to go back to a hub that loads between areas, to then load up another match and so on and so forth.
Also not a fan of the progression being split between co-op and PVP as well as some pieces being locked to specific classes despite looking the same. Remove the hub as an option, let me just navigate and matchmake via menus, give me proper customisation in singleplayer and a viable horde-mode for solo play.

Personally combat feels too paradoxical. On one hand I'm supposed to be a juiced space-marine with pure tard strength, on the other hand, I have to spend more time dodging and rolling here than in Darktide where I'm a literal Slav degen. In short:

Darktide > SM2

PC is getting fucking Terminators and Sisters of Battle while console players are getting an axe and in a month. I bet PC will get Saturnine Terminators in the time it takes saber to make anything remotely that cool.

Its too basic.

Could've sworn I saw a Paragon Warsuits mod or something SoB related being teased, but now nothing. Huh.

The campaign is too short and while it has some fantastic moments (the last stand, for example) these are way too short, too. The final boss fight is like from a guide how to make the shittiest, most boring and annoying boss fight.
Fighting nids is kinda fun, fighting chaosfags is boring.
The combat loop is too melee focused and suffers from >>717085329 what this anon said.
The single-player campaign as a whole is also simply underdeveloped as fuck. The only REALLY interesting shit starts happening from mid to the end game. Why would you do that when you have basically an endless wealth of cool shit to show? Why not introduce Dreadnaughts sooner? Why no bigger joint arms battles? Why no more doomed charges and last stands, i.e., something the entire meme lore is built on? Why is most of the game just smacking 3-10 enemies in a corridor?

It's still a good game, but it just falls a bit short.

No clue about multiplayer, I don't play multiplayer.

Should have been Word Bearers instead of ksons

The gamemode that suffered the most is the campaign
Making it mandatory coop but not letting you matchmaking as you would for operations was a terrible decision. And playing with bots suck because you have to do the work of three players by yourself
They should've either made the campaign a pure singleplayer experience or opened it up to online coop so you can try to grind out the highest difficulties with randoms

>>717085582
The Custodes mod is awesome by the way
shame it only works in private lobbies but I get why

Play on easy mode if you want to play a lore accurate space marine.

>still hitting 15k players on steam alone after nearly a year.
Whats the issue, retard?

>>717088642
>lore accurate space marine
No such thing because W40k lore is an inconsistent meme that can't even agree on most basic things.
