Warhammer 40k DoW 1 is objectively the best RTS game of all time.

This game did everything right except pathfinding.

I liked the DoW2: Retribution better.

tfw imperium of man main and stomping necron and space marine niggers

Sucks though because then they never want to play with you again. I can end games in 9-10 minutes and when I lose my edge I can defend and hold off for up to an hour.

>>383126452
How were you able to make so many mistakes while typing "C&C3:Kane's Wrath"?
>>
Dawn of war 3 is a good game and it doesn't deserve most of it's meme criticism.

You mean Warhammer? Warhammer fantasy was the first IP that popularized green orcs. Warcraft 1 was originally a Warhammer game before GW pulled out, I'm sure you can connect the dots.

And it was Warcraft, problems?

No.

Maybe popularized, I guess.

>>383126649
So DoWIII is still hot garbage?

>Warhammer fantasy was the first IP that popularized green orcs.
If it so then why I cannot find it, just as I I cannot find orcs among the Warhammer models?

nah gave me to much anxiety
i felt bad losing units
>>
>>383126452
It's more fun than SC2, sure.
>>
okay i admit i actually didnt know dow 3 had been released yet so ill have to look into that, but otherwise DoW 1 is better than any other RTS game.
>>
>>383127629
I think what keeps me from wanting to bother is the lack of actual base building. It's something I despise about RTSs - how they try to force you into leaving your base by keeping you constantly fighting in the open.

DoW3 accomplishes that by just making it impossible to establish a perimeter, since you can't build defensive emplacements and the resource points are pretty far away from your production center.

That and being required to ball up a huge amount of the same unit to be effective. DoW1 had a ton of units, but they weren't especially complicated. Most armies didn't have too many things to worry about other than positioning your blobs and deciding between groups to entangle, disrupt, attack at range or counter vehicles. Putting individual special abilities on every god damned unit in the game makes playing insufferable.

Peter Jackson's Lotr depiction of orcs isn't what Tolkien pictured. Orcs were supposed to be laughably inferior vile creatures with short arms and legs. Old school Dnd depiction did it too
>>
>>383127998
Yeah, I've been hearing a lot of people being disappointed with how the base building works. And the thing with units being squishy yet costly. And Eldar being overpowered again.

I don't know about unit abilities. But as a concept, I agree, it sounds really fucking tiresome. Back in DoW1, you could just give certain squads some new guns with new strengths and that was perfectly manageable when you had a fuckton of troops running around.

DOW1 was actually pretty terrible. Dark Crusade and Soulstorm are the definitive versions.
>>
>>383127787
you too dumb

>>383126452
Supreme Commander Forged Alliance is the pinnacle of the RTS genre and will likely never be surpassed.
DoW is good but comparitively it doesn't come close.

after COH2 seeing so many mistakes feels like a slap in the face. They couldve made DOW1 but then with the improvements theyve made over the series (COH, DOW2), but isntead they fucked up bigtime. And then they add MOBA elements, without actaully making use of the best parts of a MOBA. Instead of giving the losing player a better chance to bounce back and giving a clear victory condition that doesnt require total annihilation, they feel tacked on
>>
>>383126452
You know...
People who claim their game is the absolute best that has ever been or will be is the retards that make everyone else find even the tiniest flaw in them and shit all over them and you reach the point where you cant have a nice thread about it because you were an exaggerating faggot in the first place
