Hello Brothers,

I created this poll and thread to rant, vent or glaze the game's current state. I want to know Your opinions on it as the discussions all over this site are very mixed and the moment and the new community update has left a couple of Brothers a bit sad (prestige perk issue). I just wanted to know, if You are satisfied with how the game is rolling at the moment, with the communication, feedback, matchmaking, customizations, gameplay, bugs etc.

I personally have really mixed feelings and could write an essay regarding a lot of thinks, but let us vote - but vote honestly as you really feel.

I'm honestly very interested to see, if people more pissed or satisfied.

Also, feel free to voice your opinions here. Maybe we can come up with a nice discussion. The devs won't probably read it so...yeah :D

While we aren't getting what the majority of players wanted with perks resetting with Prestige, there is a lot of things people have asked for that we are going to get. As you saw in the community update some of which was literally done via poll and the vast majority of video games don't even do anything that like that.

I wouldn't say that Space Marine 2 is unfinished, but it does feel like half of a game. Like it's part of something bigger, or that there's supposed to be more to it - more operations, more weapons, more classes, more game modes, deeper customization in the campaign, the ability to personalize bots, stuff like that. I'm happy with what's there, but if this is the complete package, I would not be afraid to say that it's lacking.

​Sm2 is a live service game without the live service. They built the game around the live service model and decided to not do the live service part. Thats why the game seems so wonky sometimes.

Agreed.

I mean, it is fair to say, that the 90% of people feels the same way. The game is liked, but it is lacking some aspects to be a really great game.

I am in this forum nearly from launch and I played the game from day one as well. People come and go, but the main issues with this game are maybe the followings (according to my humble opinion):

- Bad communication - or just confusing. 

Here I can put a lot of promised things ("this game is player focused etc") and not delivering on it or just literally ignoring what the players want. Also, I don't think that this site and platform is the main one for the devs - even if they say so. First it was this, then Discord, then this or Reddit and who knows? It is misleading. I haven't seen a normal reply from Focus here for weeks. Also, not all the announcements (or events) are put here. The ideas seection I won't even mention. And so and so forth.

- Matchmaking:

​This is a big one. I remember, that when the came out, you could not play the PVE or PVP at all normally. It was really bad. They patched it, but the issues were still there....and are sometimes to this day. With Patch 7 they promised the "fix" it or tweak it, but we will see. A lot...I mean A LOT of people were rage quitting this game because of it. To be honest, this aspect of the game is still not ok and should be one of the top priorities for all platform users.

- Content drops:

This is OK I guess, but still lacking behind. What we are getting since launch are mostly things already created and developed when the game came out or just slightly after. The prestige perks were leaked back in November. Some skins were leaked also last year + the Obelisk mission was just a cut from the campaign. Other stuff, which are just comming (new class, missions, weapons, maps) are ok, but majority of it should have been during the launch. PVP is very weak (4 maps). Horde mode should have been there from the launch etc. Here I think that we are mostly slowly fed with content and promises.

People are now a bit happy, because new class and melee weapons were announce to bit ease maybe the contect drought, but don't forget, that this content has no time stamp with it. It will likely come out later this year. Remember, we still don't have any new roadmap or info - just promises (which they will deliver I hope). Plus they need to come up with content for YEAR 2 - so you can give them more money for the new season pass. 

There are cons as well for sure for this game. In the end, I'm still sometimes playing it for fun, but the slow content drop and other mentioned issues are making people  slowly leaving this game. Just look at the steam charts and you will see, that the game is performing online very poor (somewhere between 180-200th place at the moment).

Also, tbh the modders did this game more servis than most people think. If I look at the Astartes overhaul I mostly see all the stuff people wanted from day one with weekly community events, new classes, weapons, skins, solo plays etc.

I still hope for the best for this game thou and saluting to my Brothers who are still playing this game and engaging in this forum for so long :)

In my opinion, the game will be truly dead after horde mode worns off. As of now the game is already in a dying state.  An overall mediocre game that have been marketed as a huge project and as an ever expanding big game (which is not really expanding anything beyond lazy and very minuscule content drops over months and definetly not a big game ) that would have been , in the minds of who fell for that , the saviour of modern gaming. Well , sorry to disappoint someone for my opinion , but this game its no saviour at all . We Just have been stolen of our sweated money to get this fraud. Space Marine 3 will may be bigger , but dont expect or put your faith on It, because Saber will follow the exact same fraudolent road. Free to like it or not , but thats my opinion untill i will see a total change in how they are managing this ip .

To me it seems they are only now catching up with features that should've been in the game from the start. Also the way they put out cosmetics is very slow. Stuff like that doesn't need testing. I'd vote to separate cosmetics packs from everything else. If they released a chapter pack every two weeks or so, it'd be perfect. When it comes to stuff that needs testing like balancing and new ops, they can just take their time.

Too much like dark souls they keep making it harder and harder for the 1% and It's not fun anymore and I have completed the ops on absolute.

Game should be fun to play the first game was fun even on hard this is dark souls in a 40k wrapper.

It is built around the campaign as clearly evident in how the operation missions and characters are setup.  The live service aspect of it is tacked on to that.  It wasn't built around a live service model with that structure and content updates.

Yup, this.

Thanks guys for voting so far. I can't say that I'm surprised by the actual results. They are far from excellent and more inclined into mid/negative territory.

​4 voted for bad, 10 for satisfactory, 26 for normal and 6 for excellent. And in what universe is it closer to negative, here it is more like normal-positive? Mathematics is probably some kind of joke for you

I probably should not reply to your genius level of matematics! Just read the poll answers correctly before making any kind of statements here.

​People want to whine in the comments, a standard theme, just like your dragging to negativity, but the voting results say otherwise, everything is averagely normal

This poll is not representative anyway. More than 5 mln players bought the game, you would need at least 1% of them to vote to call the poll a good representation of the general opinion. I voted for "OK but could be better" for the lack of "very good but could be better".

Me too. There should have been an option between "Very satisfied with every aspect of the game" and "It's OK".

Во многих онлайн играх есть различные кланы, гильдии и альянсы. Здесь можно сделать тоже самое - ордена космодесанта, чтобы люди их развивали и тд, своя цитадель и прочее, в общем такая вот идея

Only 35% voted unsatisfied(16) or game is dead(5).  How is that close to negative? Very satisfied(7) and ok but could be better(31) account for the majority of votes. You even stacked the categories like the first one very satisfied with every aspect of the game how many people are ever satisfied with every aspect of any game?
