Free to Play Multiplayer?

Just saying... I feel it'll be a great way to invite newcomers to Warhammer 40K universe. There should be some limited content made Free to Play, with main content behind paywall, if the game is good.. players will spend the money.

Of course there is risk of cheaters in the F2P masses ruining a premium MP experience, but then again, may be dedicated F2P/Premium Matchmaking.

Halo Infinite has a similar model.

PS: before some self righteous ask me to spend money, I already pre-ordered Ultra Edition.

Halo infinite was able to do that f2p model because of insane macrotransaction cosmetics and nickle and diming people on even the colour of their armour. It would be the same thing if they did that here.

It also doesnt mean high player counts since Halo Infinite now only averages 3,000 players on steam all of which are the most hardcore halo fans who would have bought the game anyway. Those are awful numbers for a f2p game with no barrier to entry, worse than Darktide's somehow... Actually pretty wild how unpopular Halo infinite is considering the juggernaut Halo used to be.

i hope not and this game is already super hyped a lot of new comers are trying to play this game especially after the showcase + gameplay it is one of the biggest anticipated games of fall/winter.

From the same people who bumped space marines 1 price sky high as soon as sm2 was announced? Haha

F2P model means insane micro transactions. So please no

Would be interesting considering most people wont care about the campaign wich seems polluted.
Halo Infinite is another story, while the game has production value, the gameplay loop was very boring and the game very simplistic with very little changing from other halo games.
I dont see this game doing well only based on the pre-order crowd
