Great concept, poor execution

Single Player - Fun, Gears of War type gaming, ie 3rd person view, bloody melee executions, fast pace. I liked the story, but it seemed entirely too short. I've actually known a few individuals who played the Warhammer 40K table top game so I had high expectations I guess, and for me it just didn't quite deliver in the end.
Multi Player - I never was able to even get into a real MP match due to w/e bug the game shipped with that crippled the PS3 MP experience. However I did play a MP game by myself in a private match and was able to make it to level 2 LOL. Also, this is another one of those "Elite Pass" games where you have to have bought the game new to get online for free or buy a $10 pass, however you can play for free until level 6, assuming you can find a match.
More on the MP bug, I did read on the official forum board for the game the devs had a patch ready to go to fix it but i waited a little over a week after i read that and never saw the patch, so in the end i sent it back. Gamefly, i would suggest making a nice drink coaster out of this title or something else because it doesn't make a good game as it is currently unless you are just a Wahammer 40K fanatic, but I would imagine even they would be dissapointed.
