I dont think they've released Psyker stuff yet. Apparently that particular youtube channel got the Assassin setup earlier then most people with Founder access.

I bought into founder access because I liked their Van Helsing game and my common sense just goes out of the window where Warhammer 40k games are concerned (yes, I'm aware that there's much crap published for that license).
The assassin was playable for only a few hours - in the first state of the game, there were two missions available, playable with either a pregenerated lvl 10 crusader or assassin. They patched the game later that day and gone was the assassin, but now you could properly create a lvl 1 crusader and the game generated basic random missions instead of the two prefabricated ones.
Currently, the game is very clearly in an alpha state. Shaders and lighting don't work right, some weapons don't have textures yet, the AI enemies may not react to being attacked, death animations may not play, your inventory may not update properly, and so on.
On the bright side, there is already a wide range of weapon types in the game - bolters, autoguns, inferno pistols, plasma cannons, thunder hammers, combat shotguns and more - a larger variety than space marines usually get. There are suppression and cover mechanics in the game too.
You can also glimpse at the skill tree already, but it's very unfinished and consists mostly of passives - your types of attack are determined by the weapon you use. Then again, we have only seen the crusader so far, who is all about big guns and armor. Psykers may well be very different.

I poked around in the skill trees for a bit. Almost every combat aspect has its own skill tree, and each skill tree has more than one entry point to let you buy your way to the stuff you really want. I remember seeing the following:
Astartes Close Combat - melee Scion Sniper Training - ranged Magos Biologis Secrets - vitality Arbites Shock Tactics - debuffs Catachan Survival Training - suppression Death Cult Secrets - DOTs
They're patching regularly, even over the last weekend. They've fixed most of the inventory and death animation troubles now.
It's kinda odd to play a half finished game. The graphics are clearly a work in progress, but the bolt pistol's sound is so good that I almost feel the recoil through my mouse.

Still no word about the Psyker class, very strange. It's in the July-August section, "The End of Founding" "Primaris Psyker Inquisitorial background"

New alpha patch is just in. All characters got wiped, but apparently crafting was added, plus some other new thing called "Inoculator setup" - a magos biologis character that lets you customize your war drug.
Off I go, purging the enemies of the Imperium in His glorious name!
EDIT: another new feature is Uther's Tarot. You can equip tarot cards that grant you bonuses but also affect your missions by changing the enemy type, making them harder or allowing less margin for error, e.g. "Unending Duty" - you gain +50% more XP, have a higher chance to loot rare items, but you are not allowed to die on that mission...

After a long time of silence we finally got a big update again. - Due to community feedback the leveling system was completely overhauled which resulted in another character wipe. - Primaris Psyker Inquisitor is now in, all three basic classes are now playable. - Intro movie and the first tutorial story missions are also in. - Visible improvements to graphic detail and lighting. - New "Starship" tile set. Also, now there's at least a partial explanation for the game's title: the "Martyr" is a derelict ship the Inquisitor lands on during the first story mission. Oops, that's a lot of blood on the floor...

I need to play this one first. Too many games on queue:
Who doesn't like a WH40K game with XCOM gameplay?!

Oh frigging hell. The game got delayed from May to June, which I don't mind, but the studio promised to make up for the delay by crunching 90 effing hours per week during it. I hope they change their minds. No one asked for this. "Martyr" is just the game's title, not an instruction. This is the first time in my life where I honestly wondered if buying video games would be an ethical problem... I don't want to be a reason to introduce horrible crunch times. EDIT. Turns out the 90 hour week was meant as a joke that no one (me included) got...

I figured I'd re-up this thread because due to xmas cheer I got this for my xbone. The story is pretty interesting so far and kinda reminds me of diablo 1 or 2.
