It's almost like this game was only just announced and won't come out for another year or two.
>>
>>336382715
I hope it goes away and dies in a fucking fire.

Titans are a cancerous blight upon 40k and belong exclusively in Epic. Them being in an RTS that primarily focuses on infantry or light tanks is horrible and will completely fuck it up. Not to mention that there's only THREE fucking races and not even the most interesting ones. It should have been Chaos, Imperial Guard, and Necrons.

I expect a horribly imbalanced game with Knights stomping around making your infantry worthless, and shitty DLC being shoved down our throats for races that should have been in the base game, like Chaos or Guard. And WITHOUT full campaigns like expansions for DOW I.

That's because you toggled them to assault you retard. The \ key changes attack mode. Yellow is assault and they will charge out of cover to melee. Blue is standing ground, and they'll shoot at any enemy within range and stay in cover.

Devs tend not to release screenshots from proof of concept builds exactly because they don't represent the graphical quality they're aiming for.

>>336385645
Agree with this though. People expect expansion packs anyway, so starting off with only 3 factions sounds like a solid, careful idea.
>>
>>336385851

Probably means inside ships/space hulks.

Not that I'm complaining, the Space Hulk in CR and Retribution was cool. The Ork Mek was funny too.

No they're not titans.
Also, I have no fucking idea why they'd be tagging with Spess Marines.
>>
I'm absolutely sure that there will be fourth faction in the game, however it won't be part of the campaign (as playable, I mean).
Seeing how the story will be that orks, Blood Ravens and eldars are on that planet to search for mysterious superweapon, it would fit well that they also find that this place holds sleeping necrons. Also as Dawn of War 1 had Chaos Space Marines as default race and Dawn of War 2 had Tyranids, I would say Necrons are just logical choice after those.
>>
>>336383572
>2 sucks and I have no idea the landscape of the RTS genre when the game was released
2 stepped away from base building because the market was already flooded with rts base builders where you slam units together. relic knew this and rather than making a lukewarm rts you've played a billion times they added cover and tactical advantages. dawn of war 3 probably wouldn't even be happening if they did "what CnC already did better" back then

I don't know why but the Orks was the only campaign we played more than once, in fact we went for it a third time. Tyranids...I don't know, it just felt so soulless and dull. Even Space Marines and IG were alright.

Retards. Any more than 4 would be an absolute stretch. Relic are generally incompetent at faction balancing, which is why Elite Mod is the most popular rebalance mod there is across the franchise. 3 factions = less possibility they'll fuck it up.

>>336387187
The problem is that even as the smallest class of Titans, Knights are fucking OP as shit and make infantry irrelevant. Unless you have the heaviest guns available they will do jack shit against an Imperial Knight or Wraithknight and will literally get stomped to death. The introduction of them onto the battlefield means there really isn't a point to anything else. It's just a matter of spamming vehicles and superheavies while infantry lock down objectives.

Which is just like the TT. Which is horrible, because the TT is utter garbage, and the only redeeming thing about it is Kill Team.

Too bad that the ingame graphics seem like shit.

Also, for fuck's sake, DoW 1 style Basebuilding didn't fit the Eldar in DoW 1, it won't fit them in DoW 3 either.

God fucking dammit, the ability to summon forces from the webway at your whim shouldn't be mechanically bloody identical to that of Ork factory spewing out new tanks, like it is in DoW 1.

Basebuilding in general fits only on a fraction of 40k factions anyways. If they implement the same sort of shit DoW 1 had, with every faction having basically the same unit production and base building mechanics, I'm gonna be pissed.

Dude the "super units" in DOW 2 are more or less jokes. Even on TT. The only one that would be a serious problem is the Avatar of Khaine with his alt rules, but quite hilariously continuing the trend, Khaine got nerfed super duper hard in both DOW 1 and DOW 2.

While I hope they would do the same super nerfing to Knights, I doubt it given that GW probably forced them in in the first place.

Considering i'm someone who followed it, I can say since the beginning. PC gamer articles said they removed the base building, to give the feeling of "being an elite strikeforce, more accurate to the lore"

of course, we didn't expect such a thing to be for EVERY race, though.

Don't you people realise that SM, Ork and Eldar are the perfect base races and therefore the only reasonable choice for people that are new to the game?

All the other hundredthousand race options are just various flavours of the basic game tactics, but more specialised. It's just less work for more outcome, plain and simple.

>>336390537
Games from the 90s and early 2000s weren't flooding the market in 2009, come on. DoW I with its control points was hardly a classical take on the formula either and when it came out it was clearly distinct and a great game.

They didn't do anything in DoW II that required the removal of base building. They did it to simplify the game and it didn't improve it in any way. I'm glad DoW III is getting base building back.
>>
>>336390660
There's no "team" in 40K. Those Knights are AdMech aligned and they ALWAYS have their own agenda.

They might have dropped the Wraithknight on the dude by accident but they were not really a "team"

Also, still, having a Wraiithknight dropped on you is a very metal way to kick the bucket.

Someone that clearly didn't play the first game, or at the least didn't pay attention to anything but "I buy unit and move it here."

That said there isn't any reason to be mad about only 3 races since that's about on par for an RTS and they'll add the rest with expansions.

Tiberium Wars has one of the best RTS campaigns ever imo. Especially with how the campaigns all tell the same story, but from different sides.
It is bloody great, and if DoW 3 is emulating that sort of storytelling with it's campaign, I am pretty interested.

The correct solution to that is to not show bias, not merge everything together. If people want space marine, let them space marine. If they want Orkz, let them Ork it up.

Really, it just sounds like they are afraid that the last generation of 40k games have steered the fanbase towards Space Marines.
