>they took away the cover system No they didn't, there's

No one wants to play this shitty game and you're not going to drum up interest in it.

>>383291127
>DoW1 and DoW2 have bigger player bases

>>383291127
>No they didn't, there's still a cover system.
I wasn't keeping track, did they add the cover system or is it still the 4-5 circular things in the map that turns your units into turrets

>>383291127
The Space Marines are involved in some serious Techno-Heresy in that game

>>383291127
Must be nice to make a thread where you argue with a strawman to make yourself feel better.

Was DOW3 a flop? Never see it being discussed anywhere

>>383291127
>goes back to playing DOW 3

How long can single player mode possibly satisfy you?

>>383291801
Absolutely. A 40k RTS trying to cater to the wider audience can not be anything but a flop

>Dumbed down and boring campaign

All I wanted was COH 2 with a warhammer skins over it and some base building. Was that too much to ask for relic?

>>383291801
Devs themselves apologized on the current state of the game. Its utter shit at this moment.

>>383291801
It probably sold decently but noone wants to play it past 2 hours

>>383291959
so DoW II? basebuilding really isnt that important but theres probably mods for it somewhere

>>383291959
Still can't understand how they fucked up given that they have the formula for a tactical RTS to a tee.

All they needed to do was make a reskin of COH.

>>383292102
People wanted larger battles DOWII was too tactical.

You have your answer

DoW2 campaign was fuckin' great, I'm not remotely interested in multiplayer.

>>383292242
theres mods for that too, i mean sure it sucks you need mods to fix it, but its there

>>383292536
Yeah, Chaos Rising was the best, if not for the tanky bosses.

They managed to fuck up multiplayer and the single player campaign.

>>383292724
fuck I don't remember what I did wrong, but I do remember it took me 2 hours to kill Nurgle on original Chaos Rising. I remember people were complaining about it and it was patched...but that was 2 hours I'll never get back

DoW3 is actually pretty good, you fags are just crying because they didn't just made hd veriosn of first dow.

>>383293846
Yes, and?

>>383293846
No, I'm crying because they didn't just made hd veriosn of second dow.

First DOW sucked and was superseded by DOW2 for a reason.

What is it with Relic games getting progressively worse and worse and abandoning the things that made their games good to begin with.

>Dow1, etc al, classic
>Coh1, etc al, classic
>DoW2, CR, oh, you removed basebuilding and masses of units, no problem, it's still good
>Retribution, oh, you just have the same generic cookie cutter campaign for 6 factions, it's still good
>CoH2, waiy, you made it less realistic and more arcadey, it's still good I guess
>DoW3
>Destroy any semblance of it being an RTS as well as all the things that Made DoW2 still good
>Golly Gee why don't you like our game guys

both were different, but good games on their own.

I kited Ulkair to death.
Quick in quick out, killed the mobs before attacking him. You can't do without Tarkus and Cyrus on that, then its either Jonah or Thaddeus for kill power.

So yeah, it did pretty poorly. It just came out recently and it's barely doing better than a game that came out 11 years ago.

Its trash man, I wanted to like it, played the beta for about 9 hours, but its just fucking trash. Bubbles are not a cover system, no cool animations, wannabe moba rts game mode. On the plus side the army painter was there and honestly more enjoyable then the fucking game.

Devs wrote an entire entry on their site stating regret and apologizing for the current state of the game. All their efforts are now focused on attempting to fix it.

Link it then.
As far as I know they only said that they are releasing some game mode because it was requested a lot.

>>383295470

And if you search the forums, you'd find a hefty amount of the playerbase shitting on the game.

That's a lie because no official game forum is ever not full of nothing but dev bootlickers.

>>383297248
Apparently DOWIII is an exception.
Half the forum topics are,
>uninstalling
>this game is shit
>why its failing

>>383295895
Can DoW3 even be salvaged? Will nu-Relic try to pull another "1.4 There's only war" update and change the gameplay drastically?

>>383296829
Just brutal. Im amazed jone of the head of devs team called out how suicidal their direction was with the game.

>>383294284
Yep as it focused on multiplayer more and more it got shitter n shitter.

>>383297639
Still, it's kinda hard to shit on the game, because of Gorb. He moderates for free.

>>383298154
Gorb an actual relic employee?

>>383299234
Nope, but doesn't stop him from sucking off Relic's cock at every opportunity.

>>383298154
>>383299234

I used to post on Relicnews site and Gorb was always there apologizing for Relic or any other gamedev if a non-relic game was criticized. He's an unpaid professional bootlicker.

Call me when they make units way more resilient and nerfed Hero Units to oblivion

I like it alot but it's not without flaws. Bigges one is the price for the amount of content you get. If they don't announce something big soon the game will just die. It's one foot in the grave already.

>>383295096
I played it. It's not a moba.

>>383300019
>>383301467
Farce him then. If he was an employee it would be kinda ok but thats terrible.

I took a dip into the forums myself. Absolute disaster. I thought the BB community were obsessive but they are pretty peaches compared to the DoW community as of now.
