Default Guild Wars 40K

So I was thinking. I like Guild Wars. I like sci-fi. I like Warhammer 40k.

Why not a sci-fi Guild Wars-style game set in the Warhammer 40k universe? That. would. so. rule.

Thoughts?

Maybe it would work, if you based it either on 8v8 GvG matches, or 1v1 like Warhammer/Black Citadel did (Although Guild Wars was never meant to facilitate 1v1 matches) ... Forgot the name of what they called it.

Either way I doubt Anet/NCsoft/whoever has the funding to do so, and I doubt many people would buy them.

A pretty fun thing to dream about. :l

...and? It's sci-fi. Guns come with sci-fi. Please expand on your reservations.

Ah, yes that is certainly true. You may wish to check again, as I was talking about a "Guild Wars-style game".

No. Just, no. If we wanted to play a futuristic game we would play another game. GW is fantasy. That's the way I like it.

The first thought when I saw this title is that you want to sell Guild Wars for 40k. Than I looked inside and saw what you wrote and understood what it is. To tell you the truth, even if they change the background to sci-fi environments, I don't think it would add anything new on GW's formula.
