Re: "The community" and DOW3

They'll have to come with some brilliant expansions. I sincerely hope for the people that enjoy Dawn of War III that they will, and that the game will follow a similar development as Company of Heroes 2 did, hated at the beginning, and improved later on with a (somewhat) returning playerbase. If not...

Re: Orc Gameplay

*Sigh* I'm sure I'm stating an unpopular opinion here, but...the visuals in this game are such a massive hurdle for me. They make it really difficult for me to focus on the gameplay, even though the gameplay seems to be almost identical to the first game (with some unique features), which I enjoyed....

Re: Ork reveal for DOW 3

@Odysseus Counterstrike is more popular than Starcraft. Don't know why you would say it's just a small candle compared to it. Starcraft isn't a good game. You are correct, but I mean to say that it's not even an RTS. It takes an FPS, the most played genre together with sport games (For consoles and...

That said, we shall see how DoW III does. I don't think I'm the only that s...

Re: Ork reveal for DOW 3

It's mostly the art direction they are taking and their stance to making the game more e-sports ''friendly''. Starcraft II has an absolute monopoly on the RTS Esports, so in my opinion, going that route is just going to end in another disappointment. Relic has tasted the ESL with COH2, so now they c...

Re: Ork reveal for DOW 3

Just a quick general question: What do disproportionate models have to do with gameplay? As someone who works with a small team on his own modding projects, I can assure you that 99% gameplay is about statistics and coding, which has almost nothing to do with visuals. If you want visuals to have imp...

The only thing I would have personally wanted for DoW III, would be the ability to construct your army with a combination of features both from Total War and Tabletop. Then each faction would be able to differentiate between different chapters, craftworlds, klans, dynasties etc. as subfactions, with...

Dude, the Halo Wars 2 Trailer was pretty sick.

If I recall correctly, the game will also be released for Windows, so you'll be able to play the...

I'm going to have to side with the critics here. Swift may have a point, we might me overreacting, but still, I think Forest summed up some of my thoughts nicely. I appreciate Relic's sentiment of trying to change things up, and I do enjoy MOBAs, but the artstyle is just a major turnoff, especially ...

Re: FPS: Space Hulk Deathwing

It actually looks pretty decent. Seems promising for another thing to keep us busy until DOW III.

Edit: It seems Grandmaster Belial is actually participating. Also, the fact that it is written by a Dark Angels author is pretty neat too.

I hope it is more polished than the other bland spin-offs.
