only thing im finding bad is the mutiplayer if you fail the mission server disconnects, really annoying when you have a good squad thats working well together
ok - loaded this up expecting a sub-standard game, I had a resolution setting glitch which took about 10 minutes to fix and no problems since then in SP.
After playing through the first 3 chapters, I will say I think its actually pretty good and suits an older gamer like myself as its much slower paced overall. Yes the enemies come thick and fast as you progress but its nicely paced between shooting and exploration.
The teleport mechanic is an interesting concept.
The audio is very atmospheric, its basically Aliens with a 40k overlay. The art and voice-overs are nicely done and the producers have respected the deep source material at their disposal.
Performance is serviceable but not blistering, I am getting 60fps ish @ 1440p running a 6700k @ 4.7 and 980ti at 1500 with max settings.
If you want a complete opposite to the adrenaline rush of Titanfall 2 then this is a good substitute to relax with more. As a Dawn of War fan I really want to get to the end of the story and then give multi-player a stab after a patch or two.

is it worth looking at now?love me some 40k
It's always been worth it. I got over 100 hours in it and it's damn fun. Sure it has problems, but what game doesn't.
is it worth looking at now?
If you love 40k, then yes. The environments are just so well put together. Performance still needs a little bit more love, but it's much much better than at launch. Heavy flamer is just so good. That and assault cannon are my fav

got the new update but still have the server disconnect at the end of a round
Cool thanks, I'll give it a go!
Any word on proper controller support? My laptop can't really handle it (GTX 765M 2GB), but my HTPC (GTX 960 4GB) is uncomfortable to play on the couch with a keyboard... 360 pad would be ideal!
Since when has 3440x1440 been "4K"?
