    It's definitely a good game, especially for warhammer 40k fans. It respects the lore very well and the gameplay is great. It does not deserve 100% of course, but it clearly deserves more than the 76% it currently has.

    For me this is one of the best 40k video games ever right up there with DOW 1 & 2.
    This game has basically the same engin as the first BFG but with tons of extra content a, great campaign, tons of factions.
    I love it!

    The battles can be fun once the player controlled and AI controlled (in campaign) fleets become large and complex enough. However, the campaign map mechanics are very simple and feel unfinished. Some aspects of battle feel unfinished as well (ex: capture points). This is especially startling in comparison to another famous Warhammer entry (Total War: Warhammer 1/2).

This is especially startling in comparison to another famous Warhammer entry (Total War: Warhammer 1/2). While the game has 12 factions accessible in the multiplayer (which is pretty awesome), only 5 (3 human factions, necros, and tyranids) are accessible in campaign. This game will probably improve significantly as it is patched, but at its release state I cannot give it more than a 7/10. I would recommend checking out this game in late Spring/Summer of 2019 when it has been patched and expanded.… Expand

    Pretty good Warhammer game with many factions overall improved from the prequel in many areas . The campaign is intense with elements from 4x strategy games and it's less linear from it's predecessor there are also custom options of how you prefer to play the campaings like Domination or Cruiser clash type of battles.

    Игра тупо больше и лучше первой части. Переработан интерфейс, теперь он занимает в разы меньше места, хотя кнопок стало больше, баланс лучше, чем в 1 части, хотя тут 12 фракций, а не 7, как в прошлой части, флот стал масштабней, как в плане разнообразия выбора кораблей, так и в плане размера армии и многое, и многое другое. Госоди, да во 2й части можно даже отключить сетку в космосе,Игра тупо больше и лучше первой части.

    Крайне достойное и годное продолжение. Если 1я часть была довольно средней игрой, так ещё и на любителя, то 2 чать представляет из себя боле качественную, более масштабную и понятную для большинства игру.    … Expand

    A good sequel with improved strategic campaign. Different races with different mechanics. Good atmosphere and exciting cutscenes. I didn't play multiplayer yet but for single player experience this game is among my best 3 for this year. Any WH fan will love it.

    Is a great game, and has lots of content to it. After spending 50+ hours I can say this game is very much worth its price tag. Just hoping to see some new campaigns coming out soon!

    The good:
    Good campaign with interesting management and strategic choices.

    The bad:
    The multiplayer fleet management is gone. There is no need to protect your ships anymore and the only mode you can play is "ranked". The persistent mode features got dulled down so much it feels like they went from "Fallout New Vegas" to "Fallout 4". Make it simple for the mass market and feel like every other soulless multiplayer.

    The ugly:
    You can only play "domination" in multiplayer, where you have to capture points that don't even have a meaning. You win by "points" and not by destroying the enemy. There is no cruiser clash anymore. With the missing fleet management and no cruiser clash I cannot motivate myself to play multiplayer because players can just grief with escort ships capturing points instead of fighting.

    With this in mind I will only play single player and in hindsight would have waited for a Steam sale instead of buying it now.

    Fans of the original game will be happy to know it's more of the same. The game suffers from a bit of replayability issues as the missions are somewhat lacking in variety, but it has a very solid base.
    Playing against the Eldar is an incredibly frustrating experience, but it matches the lore well and I cannot complain too much about it.

    Boring and repetitive, very unbalanced, after 10 fight you will Auto resolve fights

    The second part of epic space stratagy that has reclaimed my belief in a good warhammer 40k game. More ships, bigger fleet, some interesting tweaks here and there - this is all what a good sequel of a good game needs.
    So...
    FIRE ALL WEAPONS!!! LAUNCH ASSAULT TORPEDOES!!!! THIS IS THE DAY WE’VE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!
    VENGEANCE!
    FOR!
    SANGUINIUS!

Primero, por los números: incluye muchas más razas que la primera parte, con sus correspondientes flotas y particularidades. A mayores, las batallas son con más puntos de modo que o bien puedes incluir más naves, o simplemente puedes aprovechar y usar mayor cantidad de naves muy pesadas. También tiene más campañas (3: Imperio, tiránidos y necrones) y estas son más largas y complejas. Y las batallas ahora tienen a mayores objetivos secundarios, condiciones "climatológicas" del escenario y otras complejidades con las que lidiar, a mayores de las batallas especiales que ocurren por trama a lo largo de la campaña. El resultado es una representación más detallada y minuciosa de la guerra en el sector Gótico durante la XIII Cruzada Negra de Abbadon, que lo único que pierde es un poco de personalización de las naves.

    Gráficamente el juego no es increíble, pero si que es bastante atractivo. Aunque es cierto que, por el hecho de ser naves, es un juego con muy pocas animaciones y por la estética tan recargada de 40k a menudo los diseños de las naves de cada raza son muy similares entre si. El sonido cumple bien, sin nada espectacular, pero apropiado.

    El resultado de todo ello es un gran espectáculo de batallas espaciales que realmente vale la pena.    … Expand

    A bigger and better version of the first game and a duty for all fans of Warhammer 40,000 and realtime strategies. You will not find a better game in this genre right now. [Issue#294]

    A nearly perfect RTS in a Warhammer 40k universe, universe that the developers absolutely understand. If you’re an RTS fan, you must try this game.

    Fans and veterans of the 40k universe will no doubt enjoy Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2, while it’s certainly still worth a look for newcomers interested in spaceship warfare.
