This game looks like shit. I'm sticking to DoW1.
>>
>>2493718
it looks good tho, arguably 10x better than total war CA has presented
>>
I’m willing to give DoW4 a chance. But I still think DoW1 was peak, specifically vanilla/WA (DC ruined the balance and I never played Soulstorm)
>>
>>2493718
This UI is a bit overbearing.
>>
>>2493718
the unit scale is completely fucked in DoW4, and the maps are fuckhuge and empty. I don't think it'll be a success bros...
>>
>>2493718
The battlefield reports show it is clearer when you don't have these CRAM AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE FOR HYPE screenshots
https://youtu.be/VEpODv4qmLk
https://youtu.be/-1wLXolX4CQ
https://youtu.be/yvhL7ben1Wc
https://youtu.be/Ansr816Iujk
The floating icons are a sign of the times but not too bad for unit purpose and identity, like DoW2 or CoH
>>
>>2493759
they're bad at the game and only build t1 units and drop expensive defenses in the middle of enemy attacks

I'm autistic how should I place my gens so they look nice or have some sort of tactical sense? It's not often I get to encircle them around a Listening Post.

Rage baiting would make sense if I was getting paid for engagement like all the verified posters on Twitter.
>>
These maps look like dogshit. Why is every single one just a collection of rooms and doorways? You watch each battle report and there's no flanking or interacting with the terrain. Each guy just marches his dudes directly into a chokepoint until one person uses their bombing run ability.
>>
>>2493837
>only build t1 units and drop expensive defenses in the middle of enemy attacks
BASED just like my KINO dow1 intro movie
>>
>>2493718
it looks fine
the main thing dow1 has over it is moddability which no modern game is ever going to surpass
i'll play dow4 because i want new games and a fresh canvas without established meta
>>
>>2495327
>we want dawn of war to be exactly like tabletop 40k, boring and lame
>>
>>2493837
>>2493759
jesus i can't parse this primaris shit at all, everything looks the same to me. i hope i manage to get used to it when the game comes out
>>
>>2495472
>jesus i can't parse this primaris shit at all
Every time I think I'll give DoW4 and TW:40k a chance, I remember that they're primarislop. I just can't do it. It's so stupid.

>Here, have an auto-building giga-turret right on top of your dudes!
And I thought the turret rework (read: "raping") in Dark Crusade was bad enough.

You can't shove your dudes in there, right?! Deep striking this is insane!

Does Dawn of War 1 have any soulful Easter Eggs since it's so much like Warcraft III or is it only out-of-the-way optional objectives and leftover weird shit in the maps?

In fact does any game after the first have anything at all?
>>
>>2493759
Looks unironically better than the latest TW slop
>>
>>2493718
i really don't like the unit portraits, they are not discernible enough
homm olden era had a similar problem, but they fixed it by making the units bigger on their icons
>>
>>2495642
Dawn of War 1 doesn't really have any Easter eggs.
Dawn of War 2 has some meme lines though.
>>
>>2495804
>Dawn of War 1 doesn't really have any Easter eggs
bunkers from cnc generals on a couple of maps
>>
>>2495808
I think that's just a map object.
>>
>>2495642
>units don't even have any pissed lines
>not a single culture reference
>no patrol button
>in all four games
Dawn of War... has no sovl?

Dawn of War 2 has superior soundtrack, if you care about that.
>>
>>2495891
Not what I meant and that's not even close to true except when comparing the base games' title themes.

>leftover weird shit in the maps
These two bridges in Mission 4 that stop existing once this Mek Shop or the starting Ork base is destroyed, is a great example.

who is that slut?

DoW1 has tiny maps with debuffing water and defense buffing impact craters, what the fuck are you talking about? They are nothing alike

I think Vermintide 2 might be the only Warhammer game with explicit references to anything beyond inheriting stolen character designs and archetypes.
>>
>>2496063
Your mom?
>>
>>2495927
That's a map making fumble. The bigger question is why do the bridges have any health at all.
>>
Anyone have alpha gameplay footage and screenshots for DOW4 ?
>>
What can/can't be shift queued?
Why do people not actually mod this game to fix its bullshit and make everything able to be shift queued?
>>
>>2497549
Dawn of War 1 and 2 both have shift queues.

WHO DAT RUMBLIN'?
