  • Keep Game is already in beta and has a website. This is a hugely successful franchise and there is plenty of discussion of the game already in video game sources. Candleabracadabra (talk) 00:28, 31 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • Game isn't in Beta. It has a website but it is somewhere between pre-Alpha and Alpha, as the Meet the Team 2 video showed a mockup used to test some ideas the devs had. Leonnatus (talk) 20:09, 2 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge & redirect to Warhammer 40,000 for now. I am an avid fan of Warhammer 40K and regularly haunt Games Workshop stores, but seriously we're talking about the most laid-back people in the world. Although the announcement for this game was made in 2011, they have been talking about doing this for a long time, in fact ever since online games took off. I would be very surprised if the speculative launch date of late 2015 doesn't become late 2016. Please don't be fooled by the progress chart at the website. It looks like they are 4/9ths of the way there but aside from the announcement, the second "hub" isn't anything really new, essentially the same "races and factions" there have been for the past 20 or so years. The fourth "hub" (short stories) is a sideline issue, which they have done with every stage of the development of the game so far i.e. creating background stories. So whilst it looks like the game is progressing, there actually is very little of substance as yet. This can always be recreated once we have a more definite launch date.

  • Keep The game is apart of the Warhammer 40,000 gaming series. Just like some other games that I don't know about that has wording and characters i don't know of , it does not mean i should delete it. Who ever put this up for deletion really didn't do their research. Any way at the very least merge with Warhammer games until the game itself is publish if you feel so strongly about removing the page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kenbladex (talkcontribs) 05:47, 4 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
