What I expect is it will be like CoH2 commanders but instead of just a portrait, you will get to use a specific prepicked commander on battlefield (like in DoW2 but with bigger roster).

In short, this is where DLC will most likely go.

>>336356610
I'm actually feeling pretty cautious from what's been shown so far. Rather than being a glorious return to DoW1's style this looks and sounds more like a simplified DoW2 to me. Sure they have buildings again but the way they're going on about streamlining the battlefield and making everything clear and neat, in particular with these weird designs, have me thinking that the focus will be on stripped down and gimmicky individual encounter management to be decided by who more effectively uses their 'elite' super-power.

Anybody else concerned?

I hope they make the infantry combat like in DoW2.

Lore isn't too bad really, Dawn of War + Expansions in chronological order should tell you enough. If you want the gist of it you can go to either a proper 40k wiki or 1d4chan (/tg/wiki for an easier read) to get your head around the finer details.

The games should start you fine, then maybe read each race's page on 1d4chan once you have a basic idea of what each is and you'll get the setting more or less.

Soulstorm's post-patch balance isn't bad. A good player can shit all over their competition with any race. 90% of those good players might favor the Space Marines over other factions but they're all at least viable.

he might need the basic knowledge, like the imperium follows the emperor whom they believe is a god. Chaos are like them but traitors. The Chaos gods are Khorne, Nurgle, Tzeentch and Slaanesh. Representing rage, plague, magic/change and excess.

>Basebuilding is back.
God fucking dammit, no. Unless they actually do something new, and interesting with that shit, that actually fits the lore and factions, I'm gonna be pissed. DoW 1 basebuilding style is shite.

What I want, is a game where any would be basebuilding mechanics, would actually fit the given faction. So in this case, with only Eldar, Spesh Muhreens and Orks, the Orks would get basebuilding shit like factories that churn out tanks and dredds, fortifications, big stationary guns etc.

Eldar and Spesh Muhreens on the other hand, should have something that fits them respectively.
Eldar shouldn't have any fucking basebuilding. They should just summon their shit via webway gates they can open anywhere on the battlefield or something like that, with the bigger units needing bigger gates (that would take longer to open etc).
Spesh Muhreens on the other hand, should largely just drop their stuff on the field via drop pods/ships, and maybe be able to establish some defensive structures.

DoW 1 solution is just fucking boring, and unimaginative. Basebuilding, if it is part of the game, should work in an unique way for each faction. Having every faction build their shit in the same exact way essentially, makes for super boring gameplay.

What would you say to the IG having a base-building FOCUS as their gimmick when they get introduced? For the other factions it could be minimal, but the IG specialize in turrets and artillery and have big factory type setups to churn out tanks and all the rest? I think that Ultimate Apocalypse gets weird in places but feels so right as the IG.

>>336359980
If Sisters were truly that powerful they'd be all anybody played, not a little niche faction that you see maybe 1 in 10 games. They cost less, but early game that isn't enough to give them the numbers they need to really overwhelm unless they're playing well or pull off a particularly bastardly rush. I've been screwed by the SoB pulling the stuff you're talking about but it isn't common.

You don't fucking understand. Mechanically, they were just C&C style factories that churned out units, that you needed to build with a builder unit first, which is completely inaccurate to the lore.

What I want, is for the Eldar to be able to just open webway portals on the map, and request reinforcements from them which would arrive after some time. The portals shouldn't be fixed structures that you have to build, (because the Eldar don't fucking build shit on the battlefield.) instead, they should just be gateways into the webway, that you could use to both request reinforcements, as well as move your forces around.

Not boring as shit factories with fancy animations, like they were in DoW 1 and 2 basically.

>>336360154
That would be acceptable solution as well. In general, I dislike the whole C&C/Starcraft style production bs in 40k, as it makes very little thematic sense for the wast majority of the factions.

>>336360282

In a regular 1on1 match, the game mode the game was designed around, you never ever came to the point where someone got their titan unit.

It happened in 1% of your matches probably.

Knights was easily the best bit.

When the [DEFF DREAD] killed the space marine, and was killed by the eldar walker, I thought: "Hang on, wait a second, that's not a wraithlord. that's a-..."

And then the knights came along. And I jizzed myself around 5 times in succession.

>>336361157
Big units were ALWAYS fun. In DoW1 they made a 40k battle feel like a fucking battle.

They didn't fit in DoW2, because they moved so dumbass slow and DoW2 wasn't made for huge scale battles. So when they had nurgle demons, land raiders and baneblades all moving at 1mph, it was just a pain in the ass.

Read this http://www.pcgamer.com/dawn-of-war-3-inside-relics-biggest-rts-yet/ because it gives you a good insight.

Necrons showing up in Winter Assault
Chaos being the final wave in DoW2 Last Stand

The only thing where DoW 1 is superior is in having a bigger scale. Otherwise it is clunky as fuck game, that is pretty inaccurate to 40k universe.
DoW 2 has far better combat, but its' crippled by various retarded mechanics, like the retreat button. Neither are that good games overall.

Unfortunately, from what little info we got, seems like DoW 3 is just regressing, instead of learning from both DoW 1 and DoW 2.

Return to DoW 1 basebuilding is fucking retarded, as is the whole banal hero focus DoW 2 had.

>They already crashed it into the ground with DoW2.

Were not 90% of races in DoW 1 and 2 released through DLC?

3 is a fine starting point. If the units / tech rosters are large enough, some well crafted DLC could introduce 3 more and 3 more with a nice story like classic expansion packs.

Hardly, when all races in DoW 1 basically build the same way.

Also, it barely fits most of the factions, and what makes it especially grating, is the fact that each faction has detailed methods of how they get their shit on the battlefield, that would result in far more interesting gameplay mechanics, that would be truly unique for each faction, than just copying C&C style basebuilding does.

I already ranted about it here, so I won't repeat myself further;

DoW I required a lot less micromanagement, and stationary defenses and fortifications allowed you to much more effectively lock shit down and not require you to move your entire army all over the place constantly.

This.

DoW1 was THE epic 40k battles, those which would be written in the annals of imperial history.

On in da big green book o' krumpin', which you'd sit around the fire and tell the boyz.

Wheras DoW2 was more like a scouting force bumping into another scouting force, knocking seven shades of shit out of one another before limping back home.

Granted, 40k has both in lore, but the former is far more iconic to the setting, to the artwork, generally 40k all in all is about "bigger is better"

If you're not 8ft tall, you have a mech. if you don't have that, you have a knight. if you don't have that, you have a titan, ranging from warhound to emperor class. If you dont have those, you have entire SM chapters, if you don't have those, you have a battlecruiser, if you don't have those, you have an entire imperial navy fleet. Etc etc.

No you fuck, Armageddon Steel Legion. The foremost armored division of the Imperial Guard. Armageddon got hit with 3 major wars, 1 from chaos and 2 from orks which they still have not cleared away.

No, you fucking retard.
Despite the fancy animations, the Scrin basebuilding and unit production worked IDENTICALLY to GDI and Nod. They had fixed structures, that produced shit in a que.
That is precisely what I DON'T want.

Let me set an example of what sort of shit I'd like for the Eldar.

First off, the Eldar wouldn't really produce units, instead they would simply request them into a sort of "reserve" that is waiting within the webway. Thus, unit "production" would happen entirely within the webway itself.

If the Eldar player wishes to send units to the field, he/she would then click on a spot on the map, and open a portal or particular size there (which could cost some resources or some shit, and would take some time to open). From this portal, he/she could then recal units from within the webway, at extremely rapid pace, as long as they fit trough the portal. The portal would be rather fragile, so you couldn't just open one up 5 feet from the enemy or some shit.

With this method, the Eldar would have entirely unique way of controlling the battlefield, and moving their forces about, as any unit could always re-enter the webway trough one of the portals, and then re-emerge from some other location. This would be far more interesting and more importantly, lore accurate, than the banal DoW 1 style basebuilding, where all unit production structures were virtually identical par the animations and aesthetics.
>>
The Emperor has heard our prayers! People have been wanting a more traditional RTS for a while. They seem to have taken DoW2's micro with DoW1's bigger battles.

Hero units were fantastic in Battle for Middle Earth series, and I haven't enjoyed a RTS so much since. If they're like that then what's the issue? They were really fun to use and had some cool unique abilities. The whole game was.
>>
>>336362902

Ok so what i've gathered:

RTS
Simplified Graphics for larger battles
-Three Races
+Bases are back
+Lesser titans added
+Option to pick three elite units before a match
-mention of gameplay
-mention of multiplayer numbers
- -planet name sounds too similar to arkhona from eternal crusade, which also has some deep dark secret weapon/thing on it.
>>
>>336363618
Isn't it? From an outsiders perspective, Warhammer includes every colour under the sun, some super cool and super wacky designs, as well as some anime type shit and the Orkz (even down to the spelling) are a funny, childlike clan.
>>
I know next to nothing about the lore and factions of this franchise, but I'm new to RTS and I'm seeing some damn epic stuff so I'm hyped!
>>
>>336363735
The eldar aesthetics in the anouncement cinematic are far superior to what we have seen in the ingame pictures thus far.
This is undeniable.

Did you fucking retards somehow forget that DoW1 launched with 4 factions and the rest were added in expansions?

DoW3 will probably be the same, just SM, Chaos, Eldar and Orks at launch since they're the important races.

>>336363912

Nah.

Making wraithbone look like actual calcified bone was too much. It has never once been presented as looking anything like that, doesn't suit the Eldar at all. It's called wraithbone because it's supposed to be like polished ivory.

I just have a positive view, and I'm awaiting to see GAMEPLAY and maybe some more, intricate DEVELOPER COMMENTARY of the game.

My entire childhood revolved around Dawn of War! My brothers let me paint and play warhammer with them when I was 3-4. When dawn of war arrived I was 6. My brother bought it and taught me how to play it. Every day in school I would tell all my friends about the cool shit I knew about the 40 k universe. I even managed to convince some of them to play with me pretending we were space marines or Imperial Guards!

Every day when I came home I booted up my PC and played dawn of war for hours and hours. It got to the point where my parents started getting worried that I was playing so much computer, but luckily both of my brothers helped them convince that playing video games all day every day, is something a healthy child should do! :)

>>336365267

>moba likenesses

Come from the tabletop. Picking your elite units is the same as building a list in anticipation of what your opponent has. Being able to change it just before the match is simply a convenience that video games have over tabletop games. The Dota 2 comparison is simply a product of the writer injecting what they understand or what they expect their readers to understand best - it doesn't mean the game is becoming a MOBA.

>the screenshots

I don't give a shit about how pretty a game looks, not every game needs to push my PC to the limit. I also don't give a fuck about you whining about how the game doesn't look dark enough, I've been playing this shit for decades and I remember it always looking slightly garish.

>the threats of DLC

The word everyone is latching onto is "collectible", completely missing the context of it being a reference to the campaign mode. Of course the campaign isn't going to start out with Knights available as an Elite choice. You'll have to earn them by progressing. Anything else is simply panicked assumptions resulting from nobody on this fucking board taking the time to read anything more elaborate than contextless greentext reactions in these threads.

The genre is solved, SCII already includes all the best traits - powerful world editor, good engine, great singleplayer, custom games, solid multiplayer, matchmaking system, balanced gameplay - and it includes none of the bad ones.

What can this game add that SCII doesn't have, and is worth having?

Dude, you're wanting Dawn of War to be something that it isn't.

Dawn of War (1 at least) was and always will be a classic base-building RTS. They tried to go the opposite direction in DoW2, but while some people liked that the majority felt indifferent towards it.

They're going back to their roots, and that's a good thing. Besides, it was hardly like DoW was ever just "cut trees to build barracks for every faction" either; even with basebuilding being a part of all factions, the way each one went about it felt unique and lore-friendly (hell, look at the Necrons. They essentially didn't even HAVE a base.)

That's why I hate DLC. It's never substantial. It's always little bits of shit that really don't add anything to the game, and it's never over. Expansion packs are so much nicer. They often make it feel enough like a new game to completely rejuvinate it. Meanwhile if I'm paying for 2 maps, then 2 heroes, then one faction, then 2 maps, then 2 heroes, etc. I don't get mcuh from it.
>>
>>336367892
>, the way each one went about it felt unique and lore-friendly
Only to niggers who have no clue about the lore and/or are just impressed by fancy animations.

Mechanically, the wast majority of factions in DoW 1 built their bases and units the EXACT SAME WAY.
Same of true for DoW 2, and it somehow manages to be even more boring.

What I want, is for factions to work in unique ways, including if they have, or don't have basebuilding.
For Eldar and Space Marines, base building makes very, very little sense, and seeing how the way they bring their warriors to the field fluffwise is far more interesting than merely just building some shitty factories etc, it grates me immensely that DoW 3 is going back to the C&C style "maek factory to maek units" style of bs.

Eldar can open friggin portals to a different dimension trough which they bring their warriors into the fray, nearly anywhere they damn wish. That shit isn't properly represented by a structure that just has a fancy graphical effect in it's middle, and needs to be sung into existence by some fag with a flute.
I wrote the ideal way I'd like for the eldar work here:
>>336363453

Also, the whole retardation with Spesh Muhreens needing to first drop a structure from space so that they can drop drop pods on it is completely banal. Why not just cut the middle man, and let the player drop the drop pods that contain his units WHEREVER he pleases, like they actually work in the fucking lore and the tabletop?

proper rts, but before the match starts you choose what elites you field.

so you can have termies for striking deep into territory, or have knights for holding your ground, and fighting other titans

we've no idea what else they're adding, but I hope there's a massive roster, including sternguard/vanguard vets.

Dude, listen, I sympathise with you actually, but you're upset because you're expecting Dawn of War to be something that it's not.

What you want is an actual "realistic" representation of what warfare in the 40K universe would look like - Space Marines landing with hundreds of marines at the ready, charging into battle; Eldar warping in and out of the webway to move across the battlefield and call for support, etc.

That's interesting and all, but that's fundamentally *not what Relic is setting out to achieve.* DoW is, first and foremost, a *game,* which means that whenever "realistic" lore and gameplay mechanics class, the latter will always win out.

Try not to be too butthurt about it; once you learn to let go of unattainable desires, you can start to enjoy games much more.

He asked for personality, I gave him personality.
What RTS needs is a good engine, a good world generator, a good solo campaign with separate mechanics specific to it, a good matchmaking system for multiplayer, good network code and good game balance.
These make StarCraft II the best RTS, and ultimately the last RTS you will ever need, since it does them all just right. Any game coming after it will just not be as good.

I don't want "realism". I want a game that is interesting to play, and not just copy of 2 decades old formula. Especially when that formula doesn't even fit 40k that well.

>>336368529
I can understand the appeal of making it more like tabletop; cuts out the fuss and expense of miniatures.

But this is not a miniatures game that relic is making, its an RTS. Base-building is core to the genre and if you take shit out, you have to remember to put something better in its place. I dont think anyone can think of something better.

I don't want it to be closer to the tt. I have the tt for that.
What I want it is for it to be more interesting instead of having the tacked on, mindless base building system that was basically identical between all the factions like DOW 1 had.

People are already complaining about the colors and lack of post-processing.


Give it time for them to totally shoot themselves in the foot.

>>336369621
What do you expect. In every game made by russians, they comfort and pander the russian people by making them seem invincible and the ones who did right.

>war thunder, >world of tanks

But when something has a realistic interpretation of history, they lose their shit over it, bitching saying how it's not true.

Its a WWII game. You play as the russians in some mission. You abandon troops, kill civilians, and commit warcrimes.

Basically the mandatory WAR IS HELL message was delivered in the russian campaign instead of the british one for a change, and people disliked it.
