We are going to update the W40K Build Soon

167

The Founding is now live!

Before you buy or download, read everything very carefully and note that the build you’re downloading (in the few first hours at least) is not a current Founding build, but an earlier one. You might want to wait a few hours for a better experience, otherwise there might be crashes.

Thank you Brother Kaithor, I respect your sentiment. But sentiment alone will not smite the heretics of which there is such prevalence in this sector.  I question your soothing words and wonder if they come from your own tongue or were merely spoken out loud after a gentle whisper saturated thoust mind?

Only really bad bug i've encountered so far is if i switch weapons during combat, ~50% chance that the game freezes up permanently, and after forcing the game to shutdown the account stays logged in for ~3-5 mins before drops offline. Other than that, it's already an enjoyable experience. 


P.S: power sword VS Dreadnought=not gud :<

Says 5.3 for me too.

The 5,3GB update is OK. Do not reinstall the gamefor the moment!

1. I can start it without any error

2. Can play Map or switch trough the systems without any error

3. The textures of the items are missing. but i think this is normal at the moment.

4. the chat is a little bit buggy

The Game is very funny 

This build i huge better as the last one. There are Worlds between both! But this was expected! ;-)

So far so  good! Well done for the moment!

Currently, I just got home and tested it, but that's interesting.

Trying to reinstall the game from a scratch to see if that would help. But its 4am in Budapest right now, you guys should totally go have some sleep! While we're impatient for some purging and righteous crusading, we don't want to see half of the staff dying from exhaustion

I have the same problem atm and reinstalling directx from the folder you mentioned doesn't seem to help. I have d3d_compiler_46.dll in my game folder but no signs of d3d_compiler_47.dll that game wants.

The new build is 6.6GB, so something is missing there.

I have to say that I am a little worried that they launched a paid alpha and don't actually have the correct version up at launch.
I realllllly want this game to be great and I will play the heck out of it once I have a version i can run to help make this a great game but this is a very sad launch even for an alpha.
I need to serve the emperor!

Maybe i know the reason. Steam dont allow you to release Games or EA over the Weekend. But patches and updates  are OK. So they release any version because the next chance are Monday. So now they have a build and can patch it.. This is very Clever!


regards

Well these things are to be expected.

And they said very clearly it will be a long buggy not always pretty ride!

Also i think this is their first time of working like this on steam.
So i am quite sure things will be better in the future!

Enjoyed the base combat mechanics for both classes. Not sure how I feel yet about the camera mechanics. As far as the suppression mechanic, it feels kind of clunky in the sense that when you are attacking, you are standing still, thus unable to avoid being suppressed. I'm sure this will be addressed at some point though.
11.02.2017
Yes, the download has started. Good job devs ! :D

Let's purge some heretics....

Hello, I'm back home. Tried to play again, same error "Failed to start game (unknown error)"

 Am I doing somthing wrong or was the game's main Alpha launch broken?

It's cool if you need time to fix stuff but why waste people bandwith if you know it's not going to work?

It'll be ready when It'll be ready, faults always happen in the release day and its alright, I am sure we can all wait patiently like adults.
This will be a wonderful community, I can feel it :)

The loot system is THE big news to come in this alpha we're waiting. There is others news too but loot is a core mechanic that hasn't been annonced yet. Well, at least, for me :)
11.02.2017
Posted by SteelFaith 11.02.2017
I see. People were saying this will not have loot drops etc. So that is where my concern was, as "loot drops" are a very important aspect of an ARPG. 
It is. But imagine the numerous opportunites. Maybe we wil be able to hunt for the relics from the past, from the Horus Heresy era.... I´m looking forward to wield the Lantern (offcourse as a two hand weapon, even that it was made as and sidearm.....for the primarch :)  )

Played the first 2 missions with 1 minor crash 1st time loading, but very pleased so far this game for a pre-alpha i think this game has great potential, very excited to see what comes with the new build.
11.02.2017
Posted by Puzzony 11.02.2017
It has the traditional loot hunting mechanic, the build has been uploaded in the afternoon is the same that they used at the 2016 E3 for a sneak peek about the base movement and combat mechanics, thats why it is so tiny for now, but the new build that comes live presumably tonight will have it already.

We already skipped the sleep part... Using all the energy that the God Emperor could provide us in our fight.
Well i'll rest up and prepare my body then. Maybe sleep will help the damn time pass quicker! :D Roll on the alpha

I'll reserve my review for the proper build then, I eagerly look forward to it. I think this has a promising start even with the the lesser of the two builds. 

What? A review??? For a EA Title!

My honest feedback is, this game will not go very far without an equally addictive and fun substitute for the traditional Loot Hunt/Drop mechanic. This genre of game will not go very far - regarless if this is a WH40k game - without it. The combat being fun and satisfying is very important, but so is the loot hunt, and that important feeling of excitement and reward for getting Epic gear. 


So hopefully this is already being taken care of by the devs for the future.

Yes it should do, if you have selected auto update for the game in your library
