Yeah, I hope that Dawn of war II will be as great as the first one. But screenshots are fantastics, congratulations to relic.

THE game balance = crap
Graphics= flashy
Every online game becomes a Rush to final tech tier then mass

Style over substance seems to be the king here.

300-400 active players online right now for DC?
Come on Starcraft has more ppl than that

Good for a gift, if u know nothing about macro and micro

Acutally, I’d buy it if it was just a 40K makeover to Company Of Heroes, complete with the cursing, mud and screaming. There’s just nothing wrong with that game.

You can keep your SC2. If I was so desperate for 1996 RTS gameplay, I’d have played more than 2 missions of C&C3.
For 2008 RTS’es, no one beats Relic.

Yessssssss…Dawn of War is one of my favourites. Plus it had a really great opening cinematic.

@Okami – I did, above, but using the compressed “NCTSC2″ that was recommended in some previous posting.

I was surprised no one had beaten me to it, especially after kalain and Mark-P left the door wide open for it.

Hmm.

Is the use of the Dreadnought graphic meant to be read as a metaphor?

“This game is nothing compared to Starcraft 2! Nothing!”

I’m actually wondering why, 20 comments in, nobody else felt like quoting this particular sentence….

EDIT: Might as well contribute a bit, not just throw silly jokes around.

I sure hope that this time they’ll manage to capture more of the feel of WH40K. Make it a bit grittier and darker. Grim and dark to be more precise. Because it’s the future. And there’s only war.

(Quoting GW catch phrases never gets old. NEVER!)
