    Eternal Crusade is a funny multiplayer TPS, with a lot of factions, classes and weapons. Unfortunately, the game has been released too soon and has too many issues currently. Unless you're avid fans of Warhammer, you should wait for a price cut and more than a couple of updates.

    Warhammer 40 000 : Eternal Crusade tries to do a lot of things, promised a lot and achieved not so much eventually. Let's hope that developers don't give up on it and maybe we'll be able to play it as a nice disciple of Battlefield in the Warhammer 40k universe.

    Warhammer 40,000: Eternal Crusade is just an overpriced lobby shooter. Only the greatest fans of this franchise should purchase this.

    It currently doesn't offer the amount of content I’d expect from a $50 game. Balance and optimization issues also complicate the fun, as do missing elements in the shop and unfinished features that all suggest Eternal Crusade was released a bit too soon.

    Warhammer 40K is a great franchise on paper but has struggled in video gaming, and 'Eternal Crusade' is on the lower end of the spectrum. It has the trappings of a freemium pvp game but asks for $50 just to get in the door. From the shoddy controls to the inscrutable mysteries of equipment, this is one shooter we cannot recommend, even for the most dire of 'Warhammer' fans.

    The gameplay needs more polish, better balancing and more finesse and the same goes for the presentation. If or when it gets that it could be a contender, particularly if you love the franchise, but until that happens you might want to stick to something else.

    Warhammer 40,000: Eternal Crusade is like a derailed train: it could be a masterpiece, but actually it's only a terrible arena shooter.

    I was hoping for a game similar to Warhammer 40.000: Space Marines which was really good in terms of gameplay and multiplayer.

    They seem to have aimed for the same gameplay experience but because of bad network code (characters jumping around), sound that abruptly clips for no reason etc. it simply does not work. If they fix the bad network stuff I'll consider recommending this game, but as of now I simply cannot.

    This is without mentioning all the stuff that they promised and didn't deliver. Since everyone else mentions this I'd thought I'd skip.

    After playing a few more hours I can only say, this is by far the worst release I've been a part of. The gameplay is truly horrendous both melee and shooting. The netcode is bad, and so many more things.

    tl;dr worse disappointment than No Man's Sky

Avoid until you can get it for 5$ or less as you need to buy in-game currency to be able to play against people with full gear. Combat is buggy and game has huge lag issues. The couple of reviews that praise the game are from founders, they have full gear already and are chopping away noob's with k/d of 100+, of course they have fun as gods among mortals. Expand

    One point for decent combat.

    Its not what they promised. Their main developer spam emails half-explaining problems months after they are felt. Balance is not existent.

    If you want to reward a developer that does not even attempt to deliver on their promises then buy the game.

    If you like Microtransactions and Pay 2 Win model then support this developer.

    Game had promise, but again we where lied to by developers. At some point this type of deception needs to be regulated. I am never a fan ofGame had promise, but again we where lied to by developers. At some point this type of deception needs to be regulated. I am never a fan of government regulation when its not needed, but we have entered the gray area of "early accesses". This concept has given developers free autonomy to pretty much promise and have customers buy into game features that they never planned on putting into the final game. No Mans Sky and Warhammer Eternal Crusade are just the tip of the iceberg........ Expand
