Is Dawn of War ever going to go on sale on Steam?
I'm totally going to get it.
>DoW series is dead
>Space marine is dead
>every new Warhammer game was shit
Why?
>Total Warhammer I / II
>Shit
false
At least Space Hulk and Battlefleet Gothic were fun
>Even in death I still serve
>total war
>good
Rot with your emperor, "brother"
Went on sale a couple of weeks ago. I picked it up and the 3 expansions for 8 bucks
Space Hulk was unplayable buggy dunno about Battlefleet Gothic looks fun imo but not sure.
There should be a Christmas sale too.
I'll wait till then I guess.
The developers were retards and decided to try and be too clever instead of just recreating and fine tuning the RTS system of the original game. DoW was a really unique and fun RTS for its time and they ruined it all by trying to emulate the tabletop game, which would never work because GW would never in a million years allow a game that let people play the tabletop game on the PC, so why even bother half assing it?
BFG was fun but its just another half ass incomplete game that will never be finished.
I love dawn of war. Am playing it these days one expansion at a time since i always torrented soulstorm
The atmosphere is one of the greatest and i keep getting back to it for it
WARTRAKK'S THE FIRST TO THE FIGHT
Why could they not just improve on DoW2?
>Space Hulk was unplayable buggy
Why do people say this? During the first few weeks, the major complaints were "framerate drops in certain corridors" and "shame that online didn't save stats." Then a month later the word became "pretty buggy." Later still "unplayably buggy."
Nothing makes it more obvious that you haven't even played the game than saying that. Shit, I played it on release and experienced no problems with my 1070. In the following months, patches fixed shit including many of the framerate drops, and apparently content was even added since I've last played.
Don't talk out of your ass.
at least fantasy has games now
rat sim 2 soon
>Win every campaign battle
>Ork infestation grows larger every battle while the Magpies and Eldar areas are overrun further
I was not prepared for how fucking cool that detail was when I was younger.
I bought the game nigga. The game was fucking buggy as shit the beta was smoother than the final game.
>Fighting the Avatar of Khaine for the very first time
>Holy fuck this is going to be tough I am not prepared at all my economy is still barely going jesus christ i am going to fucking die
>Deal enough damage to make him run
>He runs into a dead end against a bunch of blown out buildings
>Turns around and smacks a Spesh Muhreen
>Takes damage and tries to run
>Runs into the building
>Turns back around and smacks the same marine
>Runs back into the building
>Repeated until dead
No wonder a newly born Slaanesh fucking tore the Eldar pantheon up
Remember avatars of khaine are the biggest jobbers in 40k
Cause DoW2 was shit
better than DoW1.
Wrong
GodfuckingDAMN do I love this game. One of my childhood series, along with Fallout and Halo. The best fuckin RTS I've ever played.
Dark Crusade is my favorite expansion.
DoW1 is literally a budget Starshit clone.
It was an RTS, which is what made it good. DoW2 stripped it of everything that makes the genre good and turned it into a lobotomized version of the tabletop game which was fucking stupid. Not to mention in terms of RTS at the time DoW1 was actually very unique with the capture point system. DoW1 was fun as fuck. DoW2 was slow, clunky, shitty, unfun and retarded.
>dow 1: good
>dow 2: not the same, but still good
>dow 3: a failure of massive proportions
A man with no taste.
XV88 Battlesuit ready for action
>DoW1 was actually very unique with the capture point system
No it was not Ground Controll 2 had this and probably some other RTS I can't remember now.
>bugged shit series which never improved in gameplay
yea Total War is fucking shit.
>Bugged
Only Rome 2 and Empires.
SANITY... is for the weak!
How does it feel to have shit taste?
Every new 40K game will be shit too, in terms of fluff with the direction they've gone in. It's weird to think that what they did to fantasy was actually a good thing. They can't fuck it up anymore and it is a separate entity, meaning games and RPGs can still be made. How's that for a blessing in disguise?
>tfw good DoW games have been reduced to niche genres and low budget studios
>turned it into a lobotomized version of the tabletop game which was fucking stupid
But the game is based on a tabletop game, why wouldn't you make the video game as close to the tabletop as possible?
>DoW2
>version of the tabletop game
You're an idiot if you honestly think this
>we will never have a 30k horus heresy game
Just posting the best 40k theme that will ever exist.
Chaos Gate > Armageddon
Nice try, but here's the real one.

>It's a 3D brawler where you play the Emperor cutting his way through swathes of traitors
wew, sounds like kotor remix youtube.com
Because that's why the tabletop game is for.
Instead, we already had a videogame with expansions with a nice war economy (capturing points forces the player to be aggressive) that only asked to be improved further with more units/customisation/campaign/mapmaking/factions/funny voices (METAL BAWKSES ?!)
>25 posters
>shitlord OP literally despertaly pushing his own shitty thread
because that game was last stand: the game.
prefer they just re-do DOW1 in propper grapics and take 2's cover system and be fucking done with it.
same wish i have for command and conquer generals really..
i stil dont know what god awfull retard though it was a good idea to remove the one unique feature, sync kills from the DOW series.
Yeah. It made the battles look alive.
Plus if you really want to balance it, you just have to up the numbers of units per squad, and programm it so only half of the forces will "insta-kill" each other.
Or only play it when a unit dies, give it a 30% chance to proc. 70% of the time a unit bites it, it just falls to the ground, 30% it triggers a nifty animation.
Make it so Massive units/vehicles/heroes have animations against each other, and up their trigger to 100%, and keep their instakill ability for cannon fodder.
Really, the % could go with some tinkering, for sure, and maybe you could leave an option to activate/deactivate it for spergs who want "muh cumpututuve play !!", but bring us back the feeling from that first cinematic dammit !!!
Bring us back the Waaagh !
Vehicles were the fucking shit.
Nothing better for mowing down the scum
both had good parts, i put hundreds of hours in each, played 3 for about 5 hours during the beta weekend and dropped the franchise forever
