There’s a sure dance that’s been occurring in House Marine 2 since launch. Gamers will load right into a recreation within the PvE Operations mode and discover that the category they wish to play is already chosen by one other. Thus begins the shuffle, with all gamers making an attempt to work out who can play what, given how you can’t have two of the identical class in a recreation. Followers have been asking for this course of to be smoothed out, and now the developer has responded.
Sadly, it seems like nothing goes to alter – at the least not but. The Space Marine 2 dev states that whereas it’s engaged on the issue for the action-adventure game, it’ll take some time to get working appropriately. “For now, we’re specializing in enhancing matchmaking in order that you’ll not matchmake with gamers of the identical class. This isn’t a straightforward repair, so it can take us a while to roll it out,” the developer writes.
Followers have, nonetheless, requested a distinct answer involving eradicating the category restriction that sadly may even take some time to implement – if it’s potential in any respect. “As for utilizing the identical class, we don’t wish to change that rule for normal matchmaking, however we’re contemplating it as an growth of personal lobbies sooner or later. It is going to take us time to complete it.”
Customization can also be closely addressed all through the Q&A. One pertains to with the ability to use any Chaos House Marine Legion with any class, which doesn’t appear to be potential for the time being, with “many lore restrictions stopping us from doing this”. Although extra Chaos customization will probably be coming sooner or later, it appears there gained’t be any Dying Guard Assault legionnaires working round any time quickly. New lens colours will probably be applied although, together with the potential for extra courses, extra armor colours, the flexibility to alter your marine’s face, and extra.
For these searching for adjustments to the sport’s subject of view, it seems like there gained’t be an choice anytime quickly. “FoV slider is just not one thing we’re snug with, as it could degrade the visible side of the sport. And on prime of that, it is vitally advanced,” the dev states. “Our recreation is just not a primary individual shooter, the digital camera that we’ve got may be very cinematic and continually adjustments place and FoV primarily based on what you might be doing. Nonetheless, we perceive that may be a very fashionable request so we’re contemplating it anyway.”
Lastly, the flexibility to swap shoulders for weapons is one thing that undoubtedly gained’t be arriving, because of the work concerned. “If we’re to implement shoulder swap we might want to assist it for all melee animations and transitions as a result of every part in melee fight was made primarily based on the truth that you maintain pistol within the left hand and melee weapon in the precise hand (as a result of it seems badass). However, shoulder swap is a characteristic we is not going to add within the recreation.”
Whereas a few of these solutions are certain to not be what followers are searching for, it’s good to see a developer state outright what’s potential and what isn’t, as an alternative of dangling the grimdark carrot of hope in entrance of the group. That mentioned, there are many adjustments coming, and you may head over to the Q&A post to learn the complete rundown.
