Another night of multiplayer on War hammer 40000K. Got better at staying in the fight. Went from getting wasted 15 times in a row and having no kills in a 50 death wins match to getting killed 5 times and scoring 16 kills in my last match. The weapons in War hammer are not the most visually impressive, but they are very satisfying. In particular, the Imperial bolter discharges and contacts like a mini-rocket gun. The weapon is imprecise, but devastating in a hallway or confined space. Grenades are very satisfying one shot kills, but these weapons, sadly, do not count towards your # of awarded kills. There is an M16 type automatic weapon that has a great feel and looks great discharging. But the weapon does next to no damage, which is why it is the weapon of choice that you are given when respawning. The rail gun does a ton of damage, but the aim requirements are so precise, that I cannot operate the weapon effectively in battle. The sniper rifle was very cool, I got to camp out in a corner of the death match last night and I knocked off 8 enemies in a row. Nailing some guy as they were fighting halfway across the map required precise aiming and was very gratifying when successfully done. Two nights into playing this game online and I still have not grown tired of it. This speaks to the simple, functional and enjoyable multiplayer component in this game. If the PS2 has more of these types of games, Xbox is in trouble . . .
