Warhammer 40K: Boltgun 'Forges Of Corruption' Paid Campaign Now Available

It’s a shame what a joke WH40k and Games Workshop as a whole have become.

@locky-mavo this is a pretty decent game, so I'm not sure how you mean.

I'm both amused and glad that one of the better recent WH40k games is getting more stuff and that it is loved more on the basis of NOT taking itself all the way seriously like most WH40k strategy games do.

Losing the undercurrent of "it's all supposed to be tongue in cheek, yeah?" is always the first sign a dev misunderstands what Warhammer is about.

Also, navigation aid is good. Not often, but more than once, I got lost in the canyon levels because of how samey everything was.

@LikelySatan I’m not talking about this game in particular. But if you know, you know.

@locky-mavo Do you happen to know where my avatar comes from? If you know, you know!
Anyway, I've not played many Warhammer things either. Space Hulk back in the day was scary and fun, but I don't know how it holds up. And Blackthorne. Boltgunner was fine though, and Necromunda: Hired Gun was also fine. Both had some pretty glaring issues. I know that fans are annoyed that the license is being exploited so much, if that's what you mean.

But this game is broken on Switch though. Why isn’t this mentioned in the article? Horizontal movement speed is all over the place, when you turn left and right the camera speeds up and slows down randomly. Performance in general is laggy, and there are audio issues.

But hey, let’s release some DLC and add more broken content to the game.

I totally forgot about these issues when I saw the physical version of this game in CEX and got it. At least I only used vouchers on it. It’s a shame, because if it wasn’t for the issues the game looks a lot of fun.

Boltgun has so much potential and it can be a fun game, but the development team absolutely sucks. They launched a nearly unplayable version on the Switch, proceeded with a physical release without fixing any issues, and now a DLC?

No, thanks.

@LikelySatan I want to know the beef too!! I don't know, don't know!

@GravyThief I got accused of lying and slowing down footage of the game when I posted a serious performance issue here close to launch. Good times!
Also some of the worst asplodin' barrels in an fps ever. Slayers X shouldn't do so much better than it's peers...

Wish they'd do a 40k metroidvania where you play as an irritated cryptek trying to reactivate their tomb and cleanse it of other xenos/imperial/chaos stuff.

@locky-mavo

You won't get too far on this sight. Lot of people with "u hurt my feewings" on here.
But I agree with you totally

@LikelySatan

Your hurtful comments were not appreciated.

Switch version, in terms of fun, was decent, but my god does it have serious slowdown issues. Whereas Doom 2016 runs flawlessly and is a much more demanding game. Crazy.

Its a shame because this game was 19.99 very often, but I heard the performance on Switch was just terrible so I opted to buy it on other platforms.

Both issues pertaining to both audio and framerate.

It has bad exploding barrels, bad exploration, and bad secrets, I found after more time with it. Seriously how do you screw up exploding barrels. That's 101.
