The best thing about them is how at the very beginning of a big fight the only thing you can hear is the constant sound of bolter fire, with the occasional plasma shot that splatters someone next to you, which then slowly transitions in to a more manic tone as defenses falter and melee orientated Marines pour in.

But most noteworthy is the fact that its actually a lot of fun to play.Įven though the maps themselves aren't massive there are so many players on each team that when a battle inevitably breaks out it feels great to be a part of it. It features only two out of the four factions (Space Marines and Chaos), a handful of maps and a bunch of interesting systems that are either unfinished or hampered by poor performance. However, as of right now Eternal Crusade is an objective based third person shooter very similar to the Battlefield franchise.

Once finished, Eternal Crusade is going to be a large scale action MMO where four unique factions (Space Marines, Chaos, Eldar and Orks) vie for supremacy over a war-ravaged world.

: After many struggles, Warhammer 40k: Eternal Crusade has now closed its doors.
