I assume the campaign mode is only for a single house, as these things tend to be.

GAME MODE #1 - AN EPIC STORY CAMPAIGN WRITTEN BY NECROMUNDA VETERAN ANDY CHAMBERS

Spanning 15 action-packed missions and written by acclaimed Warhammer 40,000 author Andy Chambers, this story-driven adventure will have you follow the fate of 3 infamous Gangs as they delve deep into the entrails of Hive Primus.​

Led by a colourful cast of protagonists, these rival factions will be set on a true collision course with one another, as they race into the depths of the Underhive in search of the most valuable of long-lost treasures, encountering all kinds of dangers and memorable characters along the way.​

Necromunda: Underhive Wars’ campaign will feature more than an hour of fully-voiced* cinematics, and will also serve as an in-game tutorial that will slowly guide you into learning and mastering all the tools you’ll need to fend against the numerous perils that await you in this dark and dangerous place.​

Probably going to buy it. It's 1300ARS until the 14th of sept. which is an amount I am willing to risk (worst case refund).

Mordheim had a separate campaign for each faction.

That's pretty nebulous. Could mean you play as one while fighting the other two. Could mean you play as all three.

What I wonder, is, how do 4 way fights work, with 3 gangs.

I mean, ofc we will have like 10 DLC gangs eventually... but in the beginning that must suck a little, that at least 1 player is fighting his own clan, lol.

Well even in the tabletop game you could play as both players using the same House. Just like you can play 40K or WHFB both using the same race/army. I don't see that in principle as a huge deal, it's just exacerbated by their shitty practice of carving out base game content to sell separately as DLC.

Obviously you can, that's not the point Smile

It's just extremely silly, to make a 4 player game with only 3 factions Smile I mean not even giving the chance for a proper 1v1v1v1 Smile

But once people figure out, which clan is the strongest, they'll all pick that one anyway Smile

Lootboxes! But totally not lootboxes because they are called caskets instead. And they absolutely pinky swear not to sell them for real money or make them part of microtransactions.

I mean, can you find GEAR when playing?

Even if it's in "Loot Boxes" like e.g. it is in Vermintide, I wouldn't care.

If you can buy gear, that alters your stats, I would mind tho.

Did you watch the video? You can buy gear directly from stores, and you can buy lootboxes with in-game credits/earn them as mission rewards.

I skipped through it...

Gear with stats or "Skins"?

Ok I watched the part with shop.

They clearly say, you cannot and will not ever be able to buy anything with real money...

So it's fine with me. It's not much different than Vermintide.

It's out and, as expected, sounds like it is buggy, unpolished shovelware. Looks like this calls for the patented Ixi [Early Access] treatment.

Gonna uninstall and freeze my playtime on steam and get the yarr version for now, lol.

Haven't made my mind up yet.

That being said, second mission really throws you into the deep end right away.

wow looking at the steam reviews this looks like a mess... shame, I liked their Mordheim.

I wish someone would make an isometric rpg turn based strategy again but alas, it doesnt look like its "popular"

The AI is indeed terrible.

Example, they constantly run past your units to reach one that is way on the other side... basically giving a free shot in their back at your turn.

So far, not looking great...

HOODLUM must have had blue balls for the last month. Boom!


Congratulations to them, I guess?

Meanwhile, while the scene has been hiding with its tail between its legs due to the busts last month, "nobody" P2P groups like ElAmigos have more than stepped up and released half a dozen games (and more importantly game updates) in the meantime. This one, specifically, on September 8th.

My guess is that anybody who has wanted to play this already has. Have the devs bothered patching the mess?
