back in a day when RTS was big ofc, but now no one needs an RTS games anymore these days.

These new RTS games die because they are fundamentally shit. Had they just fucking remade DoW1 this wouldnt have happened. It doesnt take much to look at DoW3 and see its just a rubbish RTS thats a total mess.

Or they could have done what everyone has been telling them since DoW2, which was to make a bloody 40k CoH game.

Also, AoM and AoE2 sold 5m between them. The market is still there.

Have you even played it? Its probably one of the worst RTS games of all time.

Insanely unbalanced map control system, way too much micro, completely unsatisfying combat. Literally DoW1 is better, just straight up. And even I prefer 2 over 1 but I would take 1 over this.

Its funny the only thing that united the 1 and 2 fanbases is how shit 3 is.

It was boring spamfest with no micro, ugly graphics and idiotic gameplay systems like "morale" and "cover".

Not really, no.

They cant tell the difference between games like AoE/SupCom/CoH and games like LoL/DOTA so we keep getting all these shitty crossover features like a big focus on hero units and micro.

DoW3 has even more micro than SC2, and look how fucking dead SC2 is outside of Korea because of it. No one likes having to mashing M1 and attack orders to dodge grenades continuously.

Nobody wants to do RTS because to make a good one you have to be good at designing a game, first, then create an interesting world and lore, add a shitton of animations, then do a shitton of balancing, then a robust multiplayer with a nice singleplayer, then try to sell it to people.

It's the best kind of videogames but the payoff isn't good for lazy/non-visionary devs. So they stick to the rail shotoers.

No it's because the fanbase is autistic and their standard is actually bad, poorly aged games, like AoE II, DoW1 etc. So when you make gameplay improvements they throw tantrum and start hate bandwagon on your forums, calling your game "MOBA". So it's better to just make an actual MOBA and drop this toxic, obsolete fanbase altogether.

THE EXPANSIONS WILL FIX IT!!

Nah I'm serious, I'll wait for the expacs. Those usually make Relic games turned excellent like what happened to CoH2 and DoW2. If the 1st expansions doesn't hype up interest then I'll declare it dead but otherwise it's another example of Relic games.

Both DoW2 and CoH2 had reasonably solid basic gameplay, being CoH1.5 and CoH2 respectively. DoW3 is simply an abortion.

>too much micro
>unsatisfying

That's where you're wrong kiddo. You can't fairly say "it's a Moba" and also complain about too much micro. "Mobas are just RTS stripped down to one unit for babbys" has been the go to argument of RTS elitists for the longest time.

Game is most similar to Warcraft 3 really. most complaints are based on the gamemode, which I think really streamlines fights with set pieces. The game is micro intensive enough that it isnt a case of who brings more units wins and each unit has a niche and ability which allows them to even overcome their same tier counters if used properly.

>>376795370
Absolutely right, biggest mistep from relic is not appealing to compstompers early on. they're the vast majority of rts fans. The overall content and polish is bare but the base gameplay is really good and each faction has tons of shit to it and gameplay style potential. It's a really good base for future expansions. But I can understand it being too expensive for too little at the moment.

>>376793226
>AoM and AoE2 sold 5m between them. The market is still there.
They also have the bonus of having 15 years of nostaliga behind them essentially making them meme games. They cost fuck all to make and can be released at a lower and more appealing pricepoint.
I dont think any base building RTS released that isnt made by Blizzard has a chance of any real success. The genre is more or less dead. Relic are trying to adapt.

Do you have brain problems? MOBAs are all about micro, there's nothing Real Time STRATEGY about heavy micro.

Starcraft is a fucking gookclick piece of shit and retards trying to ape it is the reason RTS are dead. Even then, all the top SC players agree that Starcraft is NOT a strategy game.

Yet they still have more content than DoW3. So it really just goes to show how absolutely garbage the game is.

>>376792617
The campaign was stale. I miss wargear, and leveling up my squads. The elite experience wasn't even remotely as satisfying. All of the campaign missions, even on hard, pretty much just boiled down to "wait around for an hour while you build resources, then win in a single deathball".

>So in a MOBA you control one hero, you have a very clear sense of when your attacks are working, the tells, vulnerabilities and stuff like that. We took a lot of that and used that lens on our game.

>For example, if somebody threw a grenade in earlier Dawn of Wars there was a very small pixel [makes beeping noise], maybe there was a timer on it, a little bit of a trail, it lands - big explosion. Awesome feedback for the attacker. For the guy who's receiving it? Not so good. Nothing you could react against. So the notion of tells has been a big thing that we've taken away from MOBAs.

Its like Relic completely forgot what made Dawn of War cool. Dawn of War was never competitive nor balanced but it gave you sick buggy unbalanced CINEMATIC gameplay experience and thats what I honestly believe everyone wanted. No one wanted the 1 game assfaggot tier game we got that is guaranteed to have a cancerous as fuck Dlc model. I dont even think the active defenders that shill the game hard defending Relic to their last breath would have minded if we got more Dawn of War 1 in this game. Its a fucking shame that we wont get a complete or decent dawn of war for a while yet if ever.

I really get the feeling that there are too many RTS shitters having their shitters opinion thrown around in RTS thread late lately.

And I wonder what compels them to post blatantly wrong facts.

>I dont think any base building RTS released that isnt made by Blizzard has a chance of any real success. The genre is more or less dead. Relic are trying to adapt.

I don't like agreeing with the shill here, but his point about base building RTS may be more acurate than you think.

Act of Aggression, grey goo, cossacks 3, how many RTS fans actually bought those? and if those were command and conquer 4, warcraft 4 and age of empires 4, wouldn't they have fared better?

There is a TON of nostalgiafagging in RTS threads, it isn't even about quality, it's jsut whatever the fuck you played first.

Battlerealms is a good game, sacrifice, Heroes of anihilated empires, armies of exigo, etc. it isn't even about new games, but, if the RTS didn't catch you when you were young you might as well not exist for the "core" RTS playerbase.

As for upcming RTS the game Iron harvest did a really good poll that covers most of the topics discussed in these threads, if there should be focus on MP, or SP, lenght of the campaign,base building, things you dislike from current RTS, etc.

i really want them to make the results public, i think it would be interesting to see how people answered this.

Anon, I've got around 5k games. I'm just not enough of a cuck to support SEGA's release/pricing strategy for TW:Warhammer (even though it's a much better game than Rome 2 or Attila)
The fact that DoW3 is a fucking MOBA is just further proof SEGA is retarded when it comes to these franchises.

>>376813202
The Warhammer team won't stop making Total War games until they're completely finished with all three titles, and CA's other dev team is also busy with creating another historical Total War title. I don't think they'd be able to make any other games without hiring a whole bunch more people.

You blobbed your shit and got wrecked. If you had dominated the game as you said you should've
1: had a large enough army to fuck his elite up
2: had enough resource generation so that losing one engagement isnt a definitive loss

i swear at least 80% of people shitting on this game either:
haven't played it,
are shitters that got wrecked because they didnt bother to learn the mechanics
Or play RTS for the campaign and were dissapointed.

Only one of those complaints are fair.

I tried to watch some Indrid Casts of 3. His commentary is so good it got me into DoW2 Elite.

Towards the end of this 1v1, the ork team was winning handidly. Even took out the marine's natural power thing. Indrid commented that that usually spelled the end of the match. But no, the marine player built a Deathstorm drop pod, landed it in the middle of the ork army, and it pretty much killed them all with minimal assistance. The ork player then resigned because he lost his entire army and couldn't come back.

Like what the actual fuck is the balance in this game

Dawn on war 3 Is totally a successful game and not one of the biggest flops in several years guys!

It's the most popular RTS around right now.

Even now, two weeks after release it still has 20% of it's initial playerbase. Isn't this kind of player retention amazing?

Absolutely a valid complaint, I was pissed when I heard that announced but decided to try the beta and was surprised.
If you've got a backlog or not much money to spend DoW 3 is not the game to get at the moment. When it gets more factions, game modes and some annoying bugs fucked off it will be a great online RTS.
At the moment I think it's just good and it's only good because of the core gameplay and the way the armies have been built.

Are you being daft on purpose? They could've avoided this complaint by simply naming it different. Would you also enjoy an ability called "Nuclear Warhead" doing a grenade worth of damage?

My point isthat they couldve just named it something more lore approriate, and they had no reason not to. That keeps balanxe as the most important priority but means they don't fuck up the fluff unnecessarily

in an average match being caught by the grenade means you get focus fired down by the ironjaws and snipers. The weapon is deadly as it is.
I suppose you are right, but every other stasis spell just turns the units invulnerable and locks them in place.
>>
>>376820053
More game modes would be sweet. I just hope they randomize them and add them into quick play so that MP community doesnt get diffused.

I like the power core game mode. It adds the king of the hill style game play of set pieces with an elimination mode.
Fucks players that like to quickly finish bases though so I can see why there are complaints against it.
Allows plenty of comeback options which is good for beginners i spose.

I've always wandered if you could make a 40K RTS game but make the engagement range longer, say, World in Conflict size?

But I wouldn't know how you'd resolve a game where your melee units are going to get much more mulched when charging ranged units than in DoW because they can shoot them for longer before impact.

>>376822234
You'd have to call for some modifications than simply increasing range. Space Marines would have stronger armor and not die so easily while jump packs would have a longer range and speed, Eldar would simply be too nimble and have a chance of dodging most of the gunfire, and Orks would field so many Boyz that even if the vast majority of them were gunned down during the charge enough would still reach the main army to still be a threat.

>>376821667
I've grown used to the artstyle by now so I can appreciate it. But it is still way too clean for 40k. Everything that isnt eldar needs to be dragged through the dirt a bit to make it look authentic

That XP is for elites that you level up individually depending on how much they kill in a single match. Leveling them up unlocks more doctrines, a skin and some bonus skulls. However, you can grind XP buying picking a custom map that's just one big ass line meat grinder and fight 3 AIs over and over. Orks in particular are the best race to fight because they swarm you with units, which gives loads of XP.

>>376828302
>>376828357
From a pure technical pov (polygon, texture quality, etc), DoW3 look better than DoW2.
The issue is artstyle.
DoW3 artstyle is shit hence why it seems worse than DoW2 despite being technicaly better.
>>
>>376828357
Because that is a map littered with doodads whereas DoW3 usually has maps that have the same amount of detail as in DoW1.

If you removed all the pipes and buildings, the ground beneath would most likely look even worse than anything in DoW1, let alone DoW2.

Fuck this. What made DoW1 so immersing was that every unit who could speak reveled in how much they hate they enemies. Every Chaos unit was shouting MAIM KILL BURN and BLOOD FOR THE GOD. On the opposite side, you had Grey Knights going full deus vult. It was great.

Now you can barely feel that energy anymore in the voice acting in DoW3.
