Space Marine 3? Really?

[Fluxion]

So the Dev's are already talking about what they'd like to do in a sequel?

What a F'n insult... I love this game and really stood up for it, but when I read that they even "mentioned" SM3 when they have yet to address the most basic issues yet...

How about we get connectivity fixed? How about a FIRST balance pass? How about any kind of major patch? Hell, I wouldn't mind the Epic freaking bug being fixed... the stupid patch has never worked.

Put some of those "ideas" in the long term support of this game maybe... ? How's that for an idea...

I don't think you understand what's going on here, that's most likely not their goal at all. They probably just wanted the extra money from the paid early access FOMO weekend along with the regular sales. I'm sure their main team is already working on SM3. But SM3 will most likely be what you're talking about here. Nothing more than an overpriced DLC for SM2 that they will probably offer again with a FOMO weekend to make as much money as possible. The funny thing is that the majority will probably fall for it again. Start putting 1 and 1 together people... :-/

Eh, I pre-ordered for the Season Pass bundle, i want all the fancy cosmetics to come. The early access days were just a cherry on top. I wanted to support what I knew was gonna be a good game in the exact hope for more, and not having to wait 13 years between the next.

I'm already closing in on 120 Hrs with no sense of burnout. I'll get my money's worth many times over from this game and it's planned content, and all the better I can put it down and come back whenever I like without feeling like I'm falling behind. Allowing me to play other stuff at my leisure without concern.

game is going to be 4-5 years off even if they're in pre prod. half the team will manage this while the rest starts, also nice they already have a viale engine and a LOT of imperial art, i mean most places are hive or church or both and you kno we are getting more content, can't tell if this is bait.

Rather strange take, but you're entitled... I mean... do you honestly believe they made that much extra money from EA then are just going to abandon the game? That's kinda nonsensical and they literally have contractual accountability, especially on the scale of the money they made. They can't just say "oh we didn't make enough money to support the game any longer, but now we're going to develop SM3 instead..."

I mean, I think they're going to stick with the game, I just find it, as I said, "a slap in the face" basically to be projecting into the future when you barely have a product out the door...

Why would it be bait? Talked about it in an IGN article. You know was well as I do if they're looking at a new game, they'r not focusing on what they have... pretty much what happens in the industry despite what they always say. It's a rare occasion that an old game isn't swallowed up or abandoned.

And yes, I know they're committed to a set amount of content.. Again, I love the game a was a big defender of it pre-launch against all the haters... that's why I feel like this is such an insult. But what comes after that?

[Monk]

I swear some people have zero sense.

Obviously a company needs to be working on and thinking about the next project as soon as one is out of the door else they will go broke.

No company will have an entire studio working on bug fixes and followup content of the type that we will be getting, it's simply a waste of resources, I mean, saber interactive has over 2500 employees!

If Russians make it, will buy.

Simple as.

Some of you will wake up at some point, the others remain victims of FOMO forever ... :-/

It is a game, brah.
Back then you play a game this year and get a sequel the next.

It is normal.

I am disappointed with the PVE of this installment. If the next installment still has only 3 players and stupidly narrow maps, I will not support it

[Barrier]

There won't be any long term support for the game. Couple of patches, some new maps, dlc armors. Then space marine 3 in 4-5 years.

[Fastlane]

I'm failing to understand how TALKING about a sequel stop them from fixing the issues and adding a new content.

Sure... but to say you're thinking about the next installment of the game you JUST RELEASED that you haven't even released a REAL PATCH for yet...

And if you can't get servers to even connect reliably for the MASSIVE amount of people that you were WELL aware of that would be playing your game, you better get your whole damn studio working on it till it gets fixed.

Yea, I'm well aware of different departments and how things are broken down, I'm being sarcastic.

Hey, whatever helps you sleep at night though. If you have no problem with it, good for you. I've worked in the business world my whole life and I'm WELL aware of how it works and how PR works also. THIS is NOT smart PR. You can think about your next project, but don't go blabbing about what you want to put in it instead of this one.

[Fluxion]

And honestly, it's not just server issues anymore... it's started crashing and freezing now.. so progressively getting worse, instead of better... seems we're going in the wrong direction since launch.

Nobody said it would stop them from doing anything, but why are they putting energy into worrying about something new, when your current "something new" isn't working.... that's the point.
