The Warhammer 40,000:Space Marine 2devs have been getting reports of “hurtful behaviors” in-game, and they want you to please remember to play nice - after all, you could be playing with Henry Cavill.
“It has been reported that some players were displaying hurtful behaviors or comments in-game,” the devs say in a newcommunity update. “We do not tolerate that and will take action to prevent it. First and foremost, we kindly ask you to remain respectful, mature and mannerly with your fellow Space Marines. You can never know how old the other players may be, how their day is going, how sensitive they may be… overall, you never know who your brothers and sisters are… It could even be…” - here the devs drop a smirking emoji for emphasis - “you don’t want to insult Henry Cavill, brother, no you don’t.”
Cavill is of course anoted Warhammer sicko who posted about his love for Space Marine 2last month. “Loving the PvP and am really looking forward to it growing and expanding,” Cavill said. “It has real potential to be absolutely awesome!” TheSpace Marine 2 roadmapincludes plenty of new multiplayer content, so Cavill’s dreams might just come true.
