The voice/chapter head pack for SM2, that boasts "over 400 lines!" or some such, doesn't cover the objective based dialog during operations, apparently. So your Space Wolf will suddenly revert to the classes vanilla voice when speaking mission specific lines lol. There goes your immersion. And it's not a bug, Saber's PR people on discord said it's intentional supposedly.
The original Bonding Stud pauldron you got for prestige 1 was relocked since the Techmarine was added. Saber is claiming this was intentional as well, but if so its absurdly retarded to take something away from players and force them to grind the brand new class to max and then prestige 1 just go get something they'd already unlocked. Sounds to me like it was a fuck up and instead of admitting it they're trying to say it was purposeful.
Techmarine has the least amount of customization with only 4-5 armor sets. He can't even use the Deathwatch shoulder, let alone any of the dlc cosmetics. Most he gets are the helmets. Seems not much was actually changed from the PTS, so he's still lackluster in terms of gameplay. People are also saying he hardly speaks compared to the other classes. Seems like maybe the class was rushed despite being worked on for like a year and a half.
They only added 4 more color pattern slots to the customization suite, instead of more armor set slots, for some baffling reason. And they also apparently fucked the coloring system again for the champion pauldron trims. The Imperial Fist Champion pauldron, for example, can now change its trim color. But doing so changes the trim, the "Imperial Fist" inscription on it, and the Fist emblem itself all together. I can only assume there's other issues with the non Champion pieces that people less autistic than me about dress up haven't seen yet. I'm sure I'll sperg more once I'm able to play it myself.
They arbitrarily changed the Space Sharks emblem too. It's now a more stylized/cartoony version. Didn't add a new one, just replaced the better more simple one for no reason.
I've seen hardly any talk about the new mission, being able to make your own strategem missions or anything else. Just "hey look, Saber borked something again". Which has been a consistent theme of every patch for like the last 6 months or more.
