Warhammer 40k Space Marine 2 - NEW CLASSES Confirmed! Big Dev Updates and What's This?

all right so here we go yes we've got an allnew interview with the Warhammer 40K Space Marine 2 Dev team and they revealed that yes they do plan to add new classes to the game down the road but we also have new details about the operations mode was this game rushed in development more specifically how long did it take to have time to cook in the oven and how saber interactive survived in bracer and will they like Min devs recently depart from IPS they don't own like Warhammer and the guys that made Space Marine 2 right here are also working on a very big game that many of you might not know about we absolutely have to talk about this one but you know what let's head on over to the brand new interview and this is the headline here Warhammer 40K Space Marine 2 Q&A with Tim Willets we have a game that will exceed expectations so they are extremely confident in this one heading into release all right so yeah I say we start off with the class system and those tas's to new classes so yes this is going to be Tim Willets answering the questions here it says I know you have a class system for the multiplayer modes can you talk about that and this was asked by wccftech.com sources in the description now it says indeed are you familiar with World War Z it's a little similar our game director Demitri Ginko hopefully I didn't butcher that was the game director on World War Z and he's very good at progression class identities and attributes as you play even in PVE as you progress you unlock different classes of of course they can earn experience and you can use some of the experience to upgrade your characters even in PvP so it's like World War Z where you have things like a salt class the heavy class and the support class but it's cool to note there that there is going to be that connection from PVE to PVP so if you are interested in upgrading even in PvP by playing PVE that is something that you can do so that is very very cool now they do go on to say this we have Warhammer 40K names for them we're talking about the classes but you can pick one that you like that picture style and then you can apply your experience to those classes now they go on to ask okay how deep is the progression for each class it's deep they respond World War Z was deep I don't have the numbers off the top of my head but I feel like players will be happy like World War Z we will have updates where we will expand classes weapons and game modes all for free so they are also talking about expanding existing classes and get this yes they did confirm that they do have plans to add new classes to the game eventually this is going to be post launch there will be new stuff for everything they go on to confirm so that is huge news right there that we are going to be seeing new classes I got to ask you guys what would you like to see as a brand new class I'm so curious to see where this one goes in the long term now they did go on to expand and say is there some sort of Randomness attached to the co-op mode to keep things interesting inter in and the response is this yes the game knows that you played those missions before and if you play them again you could have different enemies so you may play a mission and then all of the sudden chaos Marines show up we do add variety to that it comes back to our AI director which is a key component in our swarm engine we have the swarm deck which controls the actions of the Swarms of tyrannids when the Swarm breaks and each tyranid starts to come at you then the AI director kicks in and understands the state of the battles that is freaking awesome now it says it can bring in Heavies and it can also bring in range attack tyranids as a Space Marine you are the ultimate killing machine you are plowing through these tyranids but at some point you start to feel overwhelmed and you're fighting and fighting and then you just finally make it through with barely enough armor left to survive but you've done it and that is all due to this very Advanced AI director that helps kind of orchestrate those battles I love the idea of AI directors you know I remember the left of for dead franchise had that and yeah seems like it will be working very well in this one from the previews I've heard very good things from The Cooperative mode so far but yeah some positives there I do wish they had more than six Cooperative missions from the start and then there is the higher difficulties as well there's those four tiers so here see what the play time will be per Cooperative mode and how much of an influenced AI director actually has on your experience replay ability wise when it comes to those mode and for those of you that might be worried that this game might have been a rushed job this is the question right here say I believe the game was originally meant to come out in late 2023 can you share what were the reasons behind the 9mon delay and what did you improve during this additional time here's the response we just need more time to polish it you know that old saying a game is only late until it ships but a bad game is bad forever we wanted to focus on making sure that every component the single player campaign and the PVE co-op mode all those were solid Kudos are then were taking the hit and delaying the game 9 months that's a pretty significant delay of course in terms of the gaming industry you know that can be pretty costly but I do think that is definitely going to be worth it so yeah kudos to the dev team and the publisher for making that choice now it says there's a lot to this game and I feel that players will feel good regarding value and content when you have all those systems you have progression and you have multiplayer sometimes things take longer to get right but I'm glad we took the time we needed to make sure we got it correct because Warhammer 40K fans W it correct if we screwed something up they would be mad you know and so we really wanted to honor the franchise we wanted to respect the universe and we wanted to make the game that people want to play I love the passion already uh you know with how they are willing to make that sort of commitment we've seen games release time and time again early they needed more time in to cook in that oven and this is just not the case it seems it looks like it's going to be a very polished game from the get-go at least crossing my fingers that is the case now next up we have this how long did it take to make the game now games always take a long time nowadays about four years or so in this case but we're very proud of where it is now we're very happy with our work and the people who played the preview were happy pre-orders are great right now what we're focused on is September 9th you know making sure that the servers are up and running for everyone making sure that any issues are ironed up and everything's looking good it's all green lights the game is fun and solid so yeah I'm excited about the launch so yeah it's good to note that it seems like it's going to have a thriving Community out of the gates pre-order numbers are solid as they say right there which is a good indication that hey because I don't think that we will be dealing with empty servers now will we be dealing with a high volume of players and potential Q times we'll have to see what happens there but hopefully saber interactive is very quick on updates and getting things running very very smoothly because you know we didn't get to see a beta or anything like that to really test the servers out I'm kind of curious to see how launch will go because I think this one will be a very very popular game now let's go into this one it says the PVE Co-op operations mode basically continues the story of the campaign right response is this yes when you play through the campaign there are times when other Space Marine squads go off and do other important missions in the big storyline so it's like there's one mission where you have to send a signal and the defenses have to be knocked out and you hear that there's a squad doing that well when you play PVE operations you're that Squad the battle is so big and there's so much going on that we've engineered these Co-op missions to fit into the story and make you feel part of the bigger conflict absolutely love it I love how they are connecting the Cooperative missions to the narrative you know I've always said that is so important to have really good narrative connections to the environment that you're in maybe even connect it back to the story in those characters it really cements the game into like this kind of reality so I'm hoping that they can pull that off but again this all comes down to if the story is actually good but it seems like you know you guys enjoyed the first game story so yeah I'm not too worried about that one now we have your independent again with saber CEO Matthew K owning parent company Beacon interactive after split with embracer how does it feel and what changed here's the response so nothing really the great thing about saber is there's me Matthew Andre and Anton there's like four of us that make all the decisions that was always the case before we were purchased by embracer even while we worked with embracer and now that we're independent again it really hasn't changed much I can't believe they survived embracer because embracer closed down a ton of Studios as you might remember so yeah now it says I'm focusing on the games that's my job making sure that each of the teams has what they need to make the best game they can I jump in when I'm free I'm not in the trenches like Demitri and I do have exposure to all the titles and work with teams which makes my my job awesome I love my job but nothing's really changed we work with Focus for Space Marine 2 and roadcraft we've announced some other games we've worked on like Jurassic Park survival a quiet place the road ahead coming out in October in toxic Commando we'll be talking about that soon after launch with Space Marine 2 things are going well for us so that's good to know that you know the Warhammer franchise is in good hands but I had no idea that they were working on Jurassic Park survival that is the development team saber is actually working on that one I am super hyped about that because not only is it a Jurassic game but it's a Jurassic Park game so I'm curious to see if that game is going to be taking us back to the original Jurassic Park and will'll be surviving together in that type of world that would be absolutely badass on this engine they could do a lot with the Swarm technology as well so when I heard that I was very very excited and yeah I'm now very curious to see what they're going to do with that one all right we have one last question as well Electronic Arts actually came out a few months ago during an Investor's call after canceling a Star Wars game in development at respawn to say that they would lean Less on license franchises in the future do you think that's where the industry is headed partially to offset those growing budgets this is a great question in the response is oh no no we're working on a Jurassic Park game that's one of the world's biggest IPS and we have other things we're working on that we haven't announced yet no you have to manage how much money you are spending on your team you have to manage how your teams are working if you have the right brand the right IP it can really benefit you even we have had great success working with other IPS look at World War Z I believe the game has made more money than the movie did I believe and I'm not sure about that but you have to manage your teams and your business and you have to make the right game with the right budget in the right part of this world and that's what we do well the confidence is really reassuring there uh so it's nice to know again that this franchise Warhammer 40K is very much in good hands and you know speaking about EA and what they've done with licenses you know they've handled Jedi Survivor well but when it came to like Star Wars and Battlefront oh my God was that such a massive misfire I don't even want to talk about it all right so now it's time to go over your top comments so remember leave a comment down below for a chance for it to end up in a future video and also as a side note remember I am still doing my Warhammer 40K Space Marine 2 giveaway so see the pinned top comment if you are interested in entering that that's for my subscribers here on YouTube all right so let's get into this shall we so we have regarding crossplay let's face it this ain't competition level Esports we don't need to have everything perfected for equality and this is a response to the fact that they did announce that yeah PVP servers are going to be separated into two pools you're going to have kind of like a PC pool between Steam and epic games store and then consoles will have their own pool players between Xbox and PlayStation 5 which some people are rejoicing and some people are like hey I want to be able to play with my friends on PC on all game modes not just PVE so let's keep going because there's more comments about this say I think PVE will be more played than PVP a lot of you guys uploaded this one this is I'm kind of curious to see if this Ruffles any PVP uh player feathers here so yeah sound off if you feel the same way or if you disagree now it says heavy has melee he swings a heavy weapon and then Stomps the enemies with his boot I had seen so many previews it's really weird from YouTubers in press saying that heavy has no melee whatsoever that's like a bummer it feels weird and you guys have confirmed through your comments here that hey Robbie heavy does have melee it's just not going to be with an actual melee weapon although I think that would be cool but I guess it's going to be perhaps a a weaker melee from what we're hearing but he also has a stomp I'm actually now wanting to try out the heavy even more because his weapons look so badass all right next up says it's unlikely I'll ever touch PVP whoa I'm glad for people who W it but it isn't for me 100 upat yeah you know I think a lot of people just want a chill time you know especially if you're like playing a game after work or you know maybe had a stressful day you just want to chill with your friends in a good PVE mode that's not to say this PVE mode isn't going to be intense on higher difficulty settings though so but it's nice you can fine-tune that experience all right says we can safely say that this game will be bringing both huge CRS 4 players PVE and PVP players which is a good sign in terms of the game being supported for a long time hopefully the anticipation for Endless content is through the roof yeah I'm kind of curious to see how they're going to manage this as a Dev team between PVE content and PVP I would love to know the analytics post launch how many people are engaging with PVE versus PVP you know is it going to be like a divide down the middle or is it going to be like 90% over here in PV PVE and 10% in PvP I don't think it's going to be that Rassy but yeah we shall see also a response here about the Embargo says if you want to cry about embargos don't pre-order simple as that yeah you know stick to your guns don't pre-order just wait and see how the game pans out now we also have this one I appreciate them realizing the PC players would have an advantage and only in the name of fairness for the PVP mode they are keeping PC and console separate so it seems like there is a group of you guys that just prefer to have different pools for players when it comes to PVP mode one for console and one for PC and you guys are actually rejoicing in that back so yeah it's definitely interesting there is a divide there still but I think the one solution is is just to have that toggle option make sure you at least give the option if you want to play with your friends on PVP mode that you would be able to have that you know there just by a toggle all right so there it is delays happenings around Space Marine 2 I am counting down the days over here we are almost in September of course so yes it will be releasing early access wow nearly less than a week on September 6th and then 9th is going to be the full release stay tuned I have you guys covered on all news around this one and I hope to cover it throughout like post launch and everything cuz it looks badass thank you so much for watching stay tuned here for more and I will see you all next time take care
