DAWN OF WAR 3 NIGGAS!

dead already
>>336411074
>3 races
It's at least 4, pc gamer made it sound like there's at least one more race we haven't seen.
>Shitty graphics
Pic related. They're photoshopped and probably subject to change.
>>336411074
>shitty graphics
wow it's like the game was just announced or something
>>336411492
>It's at least 4, pc gamer made it sound like there's at least one more race we haven't seen.
I don't know man the steam page makes it pretty clear
>>336411074
I WANT TO BELIEVE DAMNIT
JUST GIVE THEM A CHANCE
>three races
I hope that at least they make them interesting and different.
Or that we get a fourth "enemy" faction, like nids or necron.
Also, the graphics look shit, but they don't look like CoH graphics which means it's not going to be another shit clone, so that's a good thing.
>>336411726
What, no chaos?! You know they'll be DLC
>Dawn of War 3
>3 races
literal poetry
>>336411994
Necrons are good boys, they din du nuffin!
>>336411726
They wouldn't talk about another race if it hadn't been revealed yet. Both DOW games launched with 4 races and it really seems like there's going to be a mutual bad guy for the three to fight against (Nids/chaos/necron).
The language in the PC gamer article makes it seem like there's more to be seen soon so I wouldn't get to worried yet.
Praise the Emp and pass the ammunition
>>336409005
campaign is one campaign that spans over the three factions.
If there is going to be a 4th faction then it has to be chaos.
No Necrons since Dark Crusade
Opening trailer kinda blows ass compared to other Warhammer titles.
Can't say I'm overly excited.
are the giant space marine mechs like dreadnaughts where it's just one soul stuffed into a robot or do actual people need to pilot them?
does Macha finally get the D?
>>336416517
from what I understand from the lore fites happening in the other DOW3 threads, they are automated and have their own agenda
(not trying to pick a fight with anyone this is just what I have come to understand)
People kept talking about Gorgutz being in it
Somebody please link me to that part
>>336416870
Fuck disregard this I didn't read the thread but I'm still fuckign pumped
>>336416870
supposed to have Gorgutz, Gabe Angelos, and whats her nuts for Eldar
Hope they bring the base building back
The Space Marines were getting their asses kicked. What gives?
>>336416870
https://www.dawnofwar.com/
>>336417185
supposedly they are. 1/2 ov /v/ is masturbating over it and the other .5 losing their shit.
What the fuck is the point in playing Dawn of War if I can't make Noise Marines?
>No Tau
>>336417249
Space Marines have been getting their asses kicked since the Horus Heresy, what's so surprising?
The only thing retarded about the Marines dying in the trailer is the fact that they charge three Deff Dreads without heavy weapons.
>>336409005
Hopefully its not squad based shit and is actually full on armies
>>336417625
That's a great slogan for a P2W game
>>336417849
Tau aren't really a core race, sadly. Also, it seems like they'll be really focusing on Titans this time and Mantas are cool but will be kind of challenging to implement compared to just big robots.
>>336417849
>tau always never
Always feels good.See you in 5 years as dlc
>>336418404
You aren't getting necrons either. Enjoy your smurfs.
WILL THERE BE BASE BUILDING
>>336409005
Oh boy another Warhammer game featuring space marines I totally can't wait!
>>336418531
Yes there will be, check out it's steam page and the PC Gamer article.
>>336418569
I was about to reply to you seriously and then I realized I'm on /v/ so I'll just meme arrow you and assume you're retarded (since you're on /v/)

>>336419672
I fucking hate the Riptide for being anime nonsense that has no business in the Tau army but this beauty right here makes so much more sense.
Its just a walking weapons platform which fits in perfectly with the Tau utilitarian design philosophy.
>>336420190
Do you think Apollo 'BEEIINBLAAADEE' Diomedes might make an appearance?
He is the Honor Guard captain after all.
>>336416517
They are the Imperial Knights, and yes they need to be piloted by a human, they do not traditionally serve the Astartes though.
>>336417625
Yay! Humans vs Orcs vs Elves!
Again!
I can hardly wait!!
>>336420869
>Orcs
>C
End yourself you git
>>336420951
Don't you have fecal matter to grow on, fungus?
>>336420532
I don't think so, they tend to enjoy making new characters. I think the chance is as likely as learning the storm wardens primarchs name.
Anyone else excited to see how SEGA will fuck this up?
>>336421260
I vaguely recall Storm Wardens getting some kind of push
What was their deal again?
>>336421504
>publisher
>fucking the game up
Not how it works, buddy.
>3 races
>orks the only good one
>other 2 are the boring as fuck Slab Bulkheads and Space Elves
jesus christ does every fucking 40k game have to have the fucking space marines in it
>>336411074
It has to start somewhere anon. I'm going to give it a year to freshen up, then I'll judge it
>no mention of base building anywhere
DEAD ON LAUNCH
i have absolutely no fucking idea how to get into the warhammer universe
give me a book
>>336421906
That book is called dawn of war dark crusade
Start with teh space marine campaign and then try different races in skirmish till you get a feel for it
From there try the /tg/ general
>tfw I tried painting my own Space Marines
>Came out shit
>Gave up
;_;
>>336422109
Don't give up anon
Practice makes perfect!
>>336421595
Colonial Marines suggests otherwise, but that was a special case of FUBAR.
Sega has been rather supportive of its PC-exclusive titles lately so who fucking knows.
>>336421906
Google "Lexicanum"
Go and read shit. I'd start with the Imperium. There's an unbelievable amount of fluff to this universe which is why it's so awesome.
>>336422201
Colonial Marines was Gearbox's fuck up not SEGA's
>>336421018
Orks dont have anuses or fetal matter you twat
>>336422201
>ignoring the fact that Gearbox was in charge of Colonial Marines and that SEGA just owned the franchise
>>336421539
Our Primarch ran into some trouble with some Enslavers known as the nemesis incident, afterward we put our primarch and the chapters best men into tupperware containers behind like 50 of the best dreadnoughts who are under a vow of silence and won't tell us shit.
That was the last I heard, it was a big surprise.
>>336422889
Neat, big fan of the color scheme
>>336422504
they do, actually
it's the backbone of their entire ecosystem
>>336423346
They have spores not anuses you filthy git
They just spray it out their pores which turns into the forms of life they need to live
Quickly /v/, tell me your least favourite race and why!
>>336423010
Thanks I like it too, but I mainly like my chapters warfare doctrine, we don't actually use our vehicles. See instead we just use them as chariots or devices to go from point A to point B. The end result is usually crashing frigates into space hulks, dropships into greater daemons, Land speeders through entire platoons. Basically we did the whole crash your ride into enemies before the angry memes or any one else.
We also have a huge thing on personal combat, often times our chapter will put a single combatant against a great foe and facilitate the fight. It's kind of Khorne tier, but the idea is that we're trying to create better space marine heroes since ours are in the deep freeze.

>>336423485
ok, sure, they have *spores* which they shoot out of their *spore launcher* and made from their *spore material*, and they *use* those *spores* in their patented *spore production facility*
>>336415479
If the trailer relates to the game taking place in the warp it would be amazing. Maybe the BLUHD RAVENZ find Magnus.
>>336423532
Eldar
Faggot race.
>>336423682
Look here you git an anus and shit is not the same as pores and spores.
Next time you shit out a grot you can prove me wrong.
>>336423532
Spess Muhreens
Literally a meme faction
>>336423901
i'm desperately trying to find a page which straight up says "fecal matter" from some old gorkamorka book, but i've had no luck so far
>>336420374
It's a good audience
>>336423532
Necrons
Slow as fuck and are either cheesing or getting cheesed.
>>336423682
I'm gonna do this right now...I'm starting a thread on /tg/...

>>336417849
Why do you like the tau?
Hell, why does anyone like tau?
Besides the vespids.
>>336423682
The spores shed from orks like human skin does with skin cells.
When they die the spores grow in overdrive to make more orks.
you lived to see dawn of war 3
>>336424445
Some poor saps honestly believe they are the good guys.
>>336420458
>anime nonsense making no sense in Tau army
You are a fucking retard
Are the first dawn of war games worth it?
Holy shit
The numbers are in Roman! I hope the game gets an official Roman translation; always wanted to learn Roman
>>336424873
That doesn't make them special. Every race in 40k honestly believes they're the good guys.
Most people in real life, too.
So again, why the tau?
Fuck it, now seems like a good time to jump in. How is DoW 2? Are any DLCs for it as good as the ones from DoW1 look?Also the Dark Crusade cutscenes are giving me an erection. Is this normal?
>>336426145
>Also the Dark Crusade cutscenes are giving me an erection. Is this normal?
New to 40k, are you?
Wear some headphones for this one.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVnJH2scIVk
>>336426246
Motherfucking Imperial Guard and Sturn
>>336426145
DoW 2 is more about tactical squads instead of base management. There is also an arena mode where you and X other players fight off waves of enemies. That's where most of the 'good' DLC is.
Fuck now i'm hyped and I'm craving for a 40k fix but
>DoW2 is unplayable if you're used to CoH2. It's literally better in every conceivable way when it comes to gameplay.
>DoW1 feels outdated and that camera zoom is terrible, also Eldar have this ear-piercing voice filter what the fuck were they thinking it's like listening to nails on a chalkboard no wonder no one played Eldar in DoW1.
>>336426145
Play DoW1 to get a sense of what 40k is all about. Play DoW2 if you're ready for a more intimate battlefield.
>>336425610
The Tau army are based of the Chinese army and in a lesser extent modern armies in general.
They have fuck all to do with Japan and never have, its just shitposting that idiots take as fact.
While we're at it the Tau are not communists either, they are based around a caste system which is fucking opposite of communism.
>>336426061
The Tau have high tech looking gear and have an anime/battlesuit themed army. Their units and art style are very sleek and are a nice contrast from the rest of grimderp that is 40k. Plus they actually feel like a sci-fi army and aren't just like fantasy shit in space.
>>336409225
Seconded.
They can't put this shit up for pre-order fast enough.
>NO PS4
>NO BUY
PC gaming is a relic of a bygone age. Fitting that Sega and (lol!) Relic are the only ones who care.
>>336411901
shut up, newfag
>>336426793
In fairness DoW1 Eldar were just awful.
Even from a balance perspective it was so easy to get wrecked when you were playing Eldar. Only the best players even managed to do average with an Eldar force.
>>336427308
never ever
>>336409005
I hope the Imperial Guard make their presence.
>>336427517
I dont know, there was a reason why "dawn of eldar" was a meme. Of course dark crusade royally fucked the balance right up... still best game though
>>336420374
Nothing wrong with that.
>>336427597
>>336409005
>dawn of war 2 introduces tyranids as starting faction
>it also ruins every single fun mechanic from the first game
Thank Christ I tried to play it with someone I knew then first before buying it. It may have been my greatest buyer's remorse ever if I had.
>Fear not the Psyker...
God damn I hope the voice acting in this as fantastic as the first DoW's was. I fucking love every single line of dialogue in the first Dawn of War.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gGG4fpGB_w
>>336427997
I very very much agree, but honestly, if there was one thing they did well in DoW2 it was the voices:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etm3Z8E4F18
The only variable that never faltered in quality from DoW1 to 2.
>>336427997
>set to Requiem for a Dream
It's as if I'm back in 2001.
Needs chaos, necrons, and ig.
Hoping for thousand sons campaign if/when chaos is announced
>that hue of green
What the fuck were they thinking?
>>336427517
have fun catching dark reapers and the farseer with FoF. Did you like having health? Here, have Mind War. Also, the only reason guide doesn't break the game is that we don't have plasma.
>>336409005
you know why is called Dawn of War 3?
becauseit only has 3 playable races on launch
>>336409005
i think 3 races is fine as long as
>super in depth customization - like 4-8 different knight arms
>differential between faction sub races - blood ravens ultramarine ect
>future release of new races
>>336409005
I hope the Imperial Guard are available soon, they are my favorite faction.Sucks that my computer is a toaster.
dawn of war 2 was shit
>>336411726
There's no way Sega decides to fuck up ANOTER GREAT DEV, surely? They already tried the pre order to get Chaos thing for Creative Assembly, guess what, it sucked ass.
If they do it again I will flip a table. I believe it is far more likely that Relic does their typical thing of making something a surprise when it's not really a surprise since we all know that there will be 4 races at launch and chaos will be one of them.
>>336409005
I never played Dawn of War but I got really interested in Warhammer 40k last summer. I still haven't managed to justify buying an army since I haven't had time to visit my FLGS, but someday I'll have my boyz and dudes. I'll definitely check out 3 so long as I don't hear its shit. Though just having three races irks me, I hope they're not gonna hide them behind DLC and paywalls.
>>336428889
Sega seems to have learnt that lesson; freelc with the bretonnians, and quasi freelc with chaos for the first week.
>>336411726
>progress through battle after battle with loyal troops by your side
>and dominating multiplayer maps
Going to be shit, grinding to level up an army to use in multiplayer is dumb
>>336428889
my bet is chaos or nids
but more likely chaos just like dawn of war vanilla
>>336428889
>the OP image is actually a cropped image
>it's actually a throne of skulls for a chaos lord
>>336429137
Thats... actually pretty plausible. There was a mountain of bodies being piled up in the trailer. Could actually be the Skull Throne
All I want is this bad boy and the other titans to be in it, but like fuck if that'll ever happen.
>>336429393
I figured it was either a metaphor, or a tyranid biopit
>>336420374
That was the coolest shot in the whole trailer, I hope they keep the feel of it.
How the fuck did the Blood Ravens actually steal two Imperial Knights? Is that even possible?
>>336409005
>YFW Titans
About to play the first one, hope I don't suck too bad
>>336429642
Remember, the magpies have "acquired" custodes gear, this is nothing
>>336409005
>Space Marine head
>Eldar head
>Ork head
>Human skulls
Imperial guard confirmed.
>>336429847
I was wondering about that.
It's always human skulls, even though there's an ork and eldar head right there
>>336411726
>Gorgutz again
Honestly don't know what to feel.
>>336429920
Warp technology is used for the traditional work of hauling human skulls everywhere and filling Eldar up with hundreds of liters of blood.
>>336427795
lolno dark crusade was garbage, Soulstorm was by far the best game.
Why do the marines look retarded proportionally? Is this an attempt to make cosplay easier for costume losers?
>>336430030
Oh, its you, was wondering if you would make an appearance. Soulstorm vanilla was the worst, is the worst, and will always be the worst
>>336430110
Nope, dark crusade was worse by far.
>>336409005
>imperial knights for no reason
GW trying to push those model lines again.
And I seriously doubt it's just 3 factions - remember that they held back the Tyranids announcement for DoW 2 for a bit.
Expect Chaos or another xeno faction to be forthcoming.
>>336429393
I have to be the only one who thinks that would be absolutely fucking stupid. You wouldn't be able to balance something that large in a DoW sense. Apocolypse mod is for skimish babies and people who aren't actually good at RTS, and I'm not even a multiplayer wizard or something. Its just boner material for idiots.
The whole point in DoW 1, is that you get your first commander, and you spend the rest of the tech tree getting units that are progressively more useful as the game goes on, until you get into relic units, where the balance of power begins to make commanders more niche, and about their various magic, and upgrades. Once you start creating this huge dichotomy of how strong starting units are, and how strong end game units are, you make balance extremely difficult, and Relic has shown it can't fucking handle itself.
>>336430291

>>336409209

Its on steams main page. Dingus.
On a side note all those bodies, skulls and a flaming river of blood? I guess everyone is teaming up to stop Khornes prophesied invasion now he has enough skulls n shit.
>>336430603
Oh yes, tell me all about your Emperors touch rush. I'll be sitting here actually winning games if you'd like to take a go.
>>336426990
>Tau Space Marine
literally
never
happened
>>336430929
It happens all the time, Tau are more than willing to take on new recruits from any race
>>336429393
I don't think it was a skull throne since it had more than just skulls and bodies, there were chunks of rock and wreckage in it.
I feel like its a metaphor for something but I'm too thick to guess what. Anyone else wanna speculate what they think the mountain thing in the trailer is?
>>336430929
it wouldn't even be hard. It would just take time.
So, the game will play like the Retribution campaign in that you have four heroes or elite units that you micromanage while spamming "Line units" which are now cannon fodder.
So the game has literally become Dragonshard.

>Oh yes, tell me all about your Emperors touch rush. I'll be sitting here actually winning games if you'd like to take a go.
Lets play, whats your Steam/DoW name?
>>336429809
But Knights are typically put together with a lucky man taking center stage as the engine. Did the magpies steal the guys already inside?!
>>336431176
i remember this copy pasta, well memed friend
>>336431176
You don't know what the fuck you're talking about. You're just having fun with yourself.
>>336409005
orks have skulls? aren't they supposed to be fungus or something?
>>336430647
There are some really great chaos lines in that game. Really captures the essence of their motivations.
>>336430062
It's a thing. Not everyone subscribes to the "heroic scale" that GW uses for common models. There's something of a trend in bashing Terminator bodies with Marine heats for 'proper' proportion.
>>336430929
I actually have like no clue where I read this or even if it was canon, but I remember some scientists in the Imperium or maybe in one of the Tau occupied worlds did actual research because their son or something was injured and they ended up creating a power armor thing that crippled people could use that made them poor space marine equivalents, this world or system starting equipping their crippled with them. Once the Imperium heard about this, they sent some Space Marines in to kill them, the story was from the perspective of one of the Space Marines who was like, yeah iunno they seem like their doing good work, but I have to kill them. Eventually the schematics for the suit escape and the marine dies trying to stop it but his dying thoughts are like, I'm glad they escaped, maybe they'll do some good for the Imperium.
No idea if this was a canon story. But might've happened.
>>336431303
>>336420374
The entire trailer invoked a whole sense doom metal as fuck, even though the music wasn't metal at all (and I'm curious as to who did that track in the trailer), I get the same sense from that trailer as I did listening to bands like Electric Wizard or Sleep.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubBPXQ5U2_0
Dark, Psychedelic as fuck, heavy.
Everything Warhammer should be.
Too bad the ingame screenshots look like a cartoony mobile game.
>>336431190
Nah, it's more similar to Dragonshard.
But yes, kind of like WC3. Just make the heroes or elite units much stronger and your vanilla units weaker, and you get DoW3. It's literally a mix between DoW1 and 2.
>>336431359
Their part fungus but I guess they eventually develop bones.
>>336431025
>Space Marine
>The embodiment of brainwashing and endless racist hatred
>Joining the Tau for no reason
No.
>>336431413
It gets played enough. If the best RTS in the world was decided by number of active players, you'd be in the SC2 general right now.
BTW, I beat the campaign years ago. That's all multi.
>>336431652

>>336431595
Its set lore, they are called Gue'vesa
Tau and Space marines have also been allies in certain battles like the Damocles Assault
Question, in the trailer, what's the red shit the goblin picks up? Is it supposed to be the hair of a banshee?

I'm kind of sick of seeing the same damn races in every single WH40k thing.
I know "hurr, space marines are the face of the setting!" but it would have been awesome for the game to be Tau vs. Skiitarii vs. Necrons vs. Dark Eldar.
>no Chaos
Atleast we get Imperial knights
>>336431595
Whether you like it or not its happened in the books before
>>336431875
that looks suspiciously ork-like
>>336416517
They're giant robots built by feudal societies on a series of planets that make their living by herding dinosaurs. Each of the Knights is a single noble from the planet wearing a motion control rig.
>>336431808
Waiting...
>>336431765
>>336431914
Gue'vesa only refers to traitor Imperial Guards and colonists. Show me a documented case of Space Marines switching sides.

>Relic puts in the only factions that aren't shit.
Oh no, what a tragedy.
>>336422418
Fuck up implies an accidental mistake. Colonial Marines was Gearbox defrauding SEGA, paying a smaller company a fraction of the money to make Colonial Marines, and spending SEGA's money on Borderlands 2.
It's been ages since I played DoW or DoW2. As I remember it, I didn't play DoW1 multi too much (too scared) and for DoW2 I played lots and lots of multi but only in beta (then I bought DoW2, went through campaign and lost interest).
I just hope III will have better balance than DC when I played it. It seemed to me that the only way to victory was a rush with something like assault marines.
Whelp, looks lime Mr.100 "fliers are broken" Hours is a no show, anyone else want to play?
>>336432067
cbf finding the book, it was one of the earlier ones where a space marine was found in Tau style armor dead with other Tau fire warriors
Lore wise there is no reason to think Space marines could not join Tau, they would simply believe serving Tau would further the Emperors goals better than serving the corrupt human system.

It refers to humans, and space marines are human. Period.
if it has base building and linux support then i will buy
god i miss RTS

Unique style compared to other armies. Clean lines rather than skulls and shit everywhere.
They had an emphasis on being good at ranged and crap at hand to hand at a time when every other faction was the opposite.
Is this PC only? Is PS4 release confirmed yet?
>>336432608
None of the other games have been on PS so I wouldn't get your hopes up famalamadingdong.

In their preview they say big armies and base building from DoW1 are back. There is hope yet!
>>336424445
Cool technology and aesthetics, and I liked their playstyle in Dark Crusade and Soulstorm.
>>336432426
>Space Marines are human. Period.
The entire fucking point of Space Marines and how they fit into the world is that NO THEY ARE NOT HUMAN. THEY'RE FUCKING HORRIBLE, MUTANT ABOMINATIONS THAT TAKE THE SHAPE OF A HUMAN. THEY SPIT ACID AND EAT TREES FOR FUCK'S SAKE THEY ARE NOT HUMAN ANYMORE. /v/ is so shit for knowing lore it's horrible.

>Lore wise there is no reason to think Space marines could not join Tau
It would make absolutely no sense.
Space Marines are incredibly fanatical crusader types. One of the things the Emperor said was that aliens can't be trusted, ever, and the Space Marines adhere to that idea.
>>336431860
Not only the same races, just fucking Space Marines, Orks and Chaos over and over and over again.
Even in Tabletop, Eldar one of the "main" races had to wait like 8 fucking years for a new Codex, Dark Eldar had to wait, 12 years for a proper new Codex, while some new Space Marine codex gets shit out annually.
Dark Eldar especially, they are like the most fun 40k race (their codex is fucking hilarious) and yet they are barely represented in lore or anything ever.

I'm not sure I even care. They did a really good job with DoW 1 with adding the other races via expansion, I expect to see the same thing here.
I loved DoW1 and disliked 2. This new game sounds like a hybrid between 1 & 2 (it actually sounds a LOT like Warcraft 3) and I can't wait.

Soulstorm added two races, but it was really shitty. The campaign was buggy as hell, the races were unbalanced, and they sped up resource generation so much that the early tiers became meaningless.
>>336409005
Dawn of memes rather.
Will be shit.
>Still no accurate canon description of Tau and Eldar genitals
Pisses me off
>>336433270
This is bait
>>336409005
What a shitty trailer.
I'll never understand why they insist on showing Space Marines are cannon fodder in every single cinematic they make.
Just once I'd like to see them kick ass to the same extent that they do in the lore.
>>336433208

basically, a tau planet is dealing with some nyds, aand are losing. The Dark Eldar rock up, and offer their aid, for an unstated cost. The Tau agree, and the nids are dealt with. So the Eldar rock up, and demand 40 individuals from each caste each, including the ethereals. The tau agree, as the eldar say it is a "cultural exchange". Shortly after, the planet came under attack again by abominations to horrible to describe, and the tau fought them of, only to discover that these abominations were the tau that had been traded to the deldar. All the while, the dark eldar had been sitting back and watching the show, laughing their arses of. Then the deldar got bored, and stripped the planet bare of all life

WILL CHAOS ALSO BE A SECRET UNPLAYABLE 4TH RACE FOR THE AUDIENCE TO DISCOVER BUT WILL ONLY BECOME PLAYABLE IF YOU BUY THE DAY ONE DLC????

You're confusing the sequence of events, and the events themselves.
Sega acquired the Aliens IP, and contracted Gearbox to develop A:CM. Gearbox was given no milestones or deadlines, just regular payments and 'work on it'. So they took their time, prioritizing other games which were more profitable for them. Eventually Sega took a look and was pissed that not much had been done, so they withdrew the contract and announced that A:CM was cancelled.
Some time later, Sega got a little sheepish that the Aliens IP was collecting dust despite having some work done on A:CM, so they called up Gearbox and asked them to start work again. Gearbox was interested, but wanted to put most of their effort into the now-successful Borderlands, for the company vision of owning the IPs they develop. So the agreed on the condition that they'd only handle multiplayer and QA but get top billing, to which Sega accepted.
To cover the singleplayer part of the game, Sega got Timegate. Timegame was given no milestones and a far-off deadline, with regular payments and an expectation they'd 'work on it'. So they used all the money partying and buying luxuries, spending minimal time on the game. When the deadline was half a year away with little work done, Timegate knew their half-assed effort would get them in trouble, so they filed for bankruptcy and handed what they'd done to the other developer, Gearbox.
Suddenly the only developer on the project, Gearbox went into crunch to QA the mess into something playable which would pass MS and Sony certification. You can't perfect in three months what should have taken a year, so what was pressed to gold was terribly buggy. For the half-year following A:CM's release, Gearbox continued to patch the game and finish Timegate's work, but the first impression remained.
>>336433606
the same copy pasta everytime
>>336433558
Incorrect, most people consider DC shit while SS is considered the best game in the series.
That's why DC is dead and SS still has an active player base.
No amount of samefagging will change that.
>>336433427
>dow 2 gets 2 new factions over 2 expansions
They were all too samey in my opinion senpai and it was difficult to pick out specific units among the masses. I'm for less faction if we can get depth, balance and unique play styles to each of the factions. Not to mention less factions means better story modes.
It could be just me, but I don't really care about factions. DOW games to me have been about the story and using your favored units. It was never competitive or well balanced to admit.
>>336433606
>not liking Dark Crusade
Why?
>>336411492
where are these picks from
>>336433383
Soulstorm was literally the most imbalanced expansion I've ever seen during my sixty nine years spent playing video games.
Soulstorm was so broken, so heinous, so stupendous, my spectacles shattered as I witnessed the despicable balance, the horribly disfunctional gameplay, the flabbergasting smorgasbord of bugs present were enough to petrify an elephant. So baffling was this peak of civilizations bugginess, brokenness, and idiocy, that I could do naught but pass out on the floor, as my chair had already long since broken down under the sheer pressure my mental experiences had established because of the terrifying sight and exposure of the Soulstorm expansion
>>336433673
t. Randy Pitchford
>>336433767
Its a broken, unbalanced mess, full of gamebreaking glitches.
>>336433710
SS was shit until Iron Lore died and Relic did some work on it.
>>336433717
>I'm for less faction if we can get depth, balance and unique play styles to each of the factions
But that's what DoW 1 did (for the most part), while delivering more factions overall.
>>336433470
That actually wasn't me. I'd play you in the base game or Winter Assault, but not tonight, I'm going to bed.
DC was crap, SS was good for having more races and the mods.
>>336433270
My friend played tau in soul storm, that was his thing, I usually played space marines, and I always, always lost. Can anyone else confirm the tau being broken with range and damage?
>>336433673
>Pulling shit right out of my inflamed little asshole: The post
>>336409343
>wraithbone actually looks like bone
nice touch.
>>336409005
Dow 2 was shit. Don't care about another one.
>>336433785
Nope DC was significantly more broken than SS was even at launch.
Also on DC's launch the game wouldn't even start and needed a patch.
DC is also RIDDLED with buggs that cause the game to be unplayable, FOTM, Crash explot and Desync to name a few. DC was also never fixed and remains to this day a broken mess.
>>336433887
Space Marines are probably the best race. Remember that even tactical marines are better in melee than most units (especially Tau ranged units). And dreadnought spam wins the late game, especially since you can drop them on the enemy.
>>336433853
DC is still shit, fun fact: Relic promised a patch to fix DC and never delivered.
>>336434009
>>336433887
I got my shit pushed in both early and lategame and the Imperial Guard. Any advice?
>>336434101
What are you playing?
>>336434101
>>336434158
as the imperial guard*
>>336434009
Exactely, eventually I figured out just how powerful they were, but it meant nothing, he'd just run away like a faggot pick off my marines, and put them in stasis traps, I couldn't fill the ranks. Dreadnought rushes worked well, but at the rate I lost troops I couldn't upgrade much less hold points. No proper detectors sucked hard too.
