That was the biggest offense to me

40k would make for a better total war game than warhammer fantasy.
imagine something like dark crusade's campaign, but bigger, not shitty, and with proper AAA game levels of polish.

Fuck Relic, I legitimately hope they get shut down
>>384468270
Reality is nobody gives a shit about RTS anymore. New RTS in a popular franchise comes out, people play and suddenly they realize that RTS never was good. Their nostalgia is ruined and the fanbase disappears. Didn't the same thing happened with Starcraft 2 and Blitzkrieg 3? RTS will never be great again. Treasure your memories.
>>384468270
>pissed away all your fan base
It's like RTS fan base gives a shit about anything which is not 15+ years old necro games
>>384468863
yeah shit sucks. nearly all infantry feels like fucking starcraft space marines - they die like flies as soon as any kind of area damage unit even looks their way.
in dawn of war 1, even shitty chaos cultists and imperial guardsmen were able to hold out under fire for longer than even high level infantry does in dow3.
removal of morale also didnt do the game any good
>>384468936
>40k would make for a better total war game than warhammer fantasy.
Except for 40k units not fighting in rigid formations like Total War and tabletop fantasy units do.
>>384468936
Yes pls, i would take Total War 40k over rts anytime
>dow was always shit
>semi-controlling dumb little squads is god damn stupid and you know it
>people only like it because they're scared of playing a real RTS
any questions?
>>384469097
Yes. People cared about RTS in 1996 when there literally nothing to play on PC and games like AOE and C&C blew everyone's mind with production values. Since then, better things appeared and the only ones who care about this genre is people who are literally unable to accept new things. And who are not worth anything as audience because they only care about remakes, at best.
>>384469023
to be fair, in dow1 an early hero would mop the floor with regular infantry, too.
but the difference is that it would take him like 3 minutes to completely wipe a squad, and if it was constantly reinforced then he would never get through it. this would leave the infantry plenty of time to retreat to a better position or get bailed out by additional units (possible a hero of their own)
meanwhile in dow3 an early elite unit chews through multple infantry squads in like 30 seconds. it's insane.
>>384468796
>40k total war

>>384468936
total war doesn't work with anything which doesn't involve rigid formations, that's why they won't do WW1 and beyond

the battle gameplay obviously needs to be different. probably more RTS style and less total war style - smaller squads, faster movement, etc
>Being mad about Relic continuing to fuck up

E T E R N A L L Y M A D
The biggest sin is the shit campaign mode. DoW was never some eSports game, it was just fun stuff with Warhammer flavor. DoW3 just feels fucking soulless and makes me wonder why it's even a 40k game since it's nothing like the source material, let alone the previous entries in the DoW series.
>>384468270
So just like Games Workshop then?
POTTERY
>>384468464
Neither
play Flames of War instead.
>>384469645
>smaller squads
>not mass affixing bayonets as I.G and sending the whole regiment forward
>>384468270
How hard it to either:
- take the best parts of dow1 and 2
- improve on dow1 formula
- improve on dow2 formula (which is streamlined CoH)
Weak voice work, no mechanics from the previous games. Nobody wanted the SC2 apm based style of gameplay, nor moba modes. A piece of shit with a 40k sticker on it. It deserves every negative review it got.
They sure managed to capture the "under 14" audience that thinks it will get free games if it keeps defending the game blindly by repeating the same shit over and over.And Gorb is still a cuck, moderating Relic forums, instead of feeding his child or stopping his wife from fucking the neighbor.

They had to attract new audiences because rts fags don't care about anything but their necroshit. They failed, but if they didn't try pandering to moba crowd it would be instant, 100% DOA fail. Like it still was, but at least they were able to tell "maybe it won't fail" before release.

The only thing GW did for DoW3 was to keep them in check on how they present the lore, models and canon colors schemes. That's why the army painter is bare bones for most Eldar units.
>>384470482
>original fanbase
Original fanbase of what? Look at any DoW thread and it's constant bitching between Dark Crusade fans, Soul Storm fans and DoW 2 fans. They couldn't appeal to all three at once.
I cannot understand what has gotten into Relic with this project.
It's like they sat in a room eating doritos and drinking coke 5 years and then they came up with this.
Fuck this shit man, DoW was one of my favourite things ever. I will continue to play DoW 1 and 2 up to 40 years ffs.
>>384470354
The problem is they look like something a 12 year made after playing too much Call of Duty.

>>384468334
Because for some reason Relic missed the class where you learn to iterate on successful ideas not throw the them out the window for some completely new shit.
DoW was the proof of concept. Fixed a lot of the shit parts of Starcraft style RTS. Then they did CoH and improved on that existing concept, really took it above and beyond. Then for some reason they decided to just trash all of that A+ foundation and do some new shit with DoW2. So instead of continuing the success of this excellent formula they went with something that was mediocre compared to other RTS. Then CoH2 comes out, people expect the worst. It's meh for a while but eventually gets to a pretty good place. Then DoW3! They realized their mistakes!! It's going to finally be a true sequel to DoW1!!! Nope, they did it again but this time even worse. They somehow strayed even further from the original DoW/CoH foundation. Not surprisingly it's complete dogshit.
I don't understand how Relic looks at other company's success in really nailing a basic gameplay foundation and building off of it every time and just completely go the opposite direction. Creative Assembly has essentially been making the same game for seventeen years, they're doing great. Same with Bethesda, Firaxis, Paradox etc. They must just be morons and I wouldn't be surprised if this most recent fuck up marks the end of a once great RTS series.

The only thing Warcraft took from Warhammer was orc skin color. Yes, before Blizzard made Warcraft they negotiated with GW about making a Warhammer game, but that deal fell through very quickly. Warcraft was a generic fantasy setting at the start, it didn't have any other real Warhammer influences.
Starcraft was heavily influenced by Starship Troopers and Alien franchises, not 40k. People only say that because of WC WH connection.

How? Multiple planets, with huge zones on each of them? Why are these factions taking over settlements? The campaign gameplay also makes no fucking sense. How does diplomacy or trading work? How does income work?
>>384471820
relic are obsessed with innovation, every game they make has to have a stupid gimmick which sets it apart from the previous one
I've got to give them credit for their balls in trying something new but it never worked.
as it is DOW3 has barely broken even when you factor in the moronic advertisement campaign, which isn't actually a very bad place for an RTS because you can release a shit tonne of expansions for your players and now that the hard work of building the game is done making new units is pretty easy
unfortunately DOW 3's audience disintegrated and as a result I'd be incredibly fucking surprised if they release that necron expansion we were promised.
although it does mean that sega may give relic another chance at making another game. only time will tell if they learn from this abortion.
>>384470343
>They had to attract new audiences because rts fags don't care about anything but their necroshit.
but dawn of war 1 is EXACTLY the kind of 'necroshit' that RTS fags replay ad infinitum. all relic had to do was remake it with more polish, better balance, and up to date graphics, and they would have raked in lots of money from rtstards.

>>384479862
Dark Crusade had problems first of all Dark Crusade saw the implementation of what was, without a doubt, one of the worst "fixes" to a problem in gaming history. Having decided that combat was "too lethal" and that shooty units shouldn't be able to chase down and kill fleeing units, Relic introduced a flat change to the fire-on-the-move accuracy of every single unit: 15%. In one stroke, this "Fix" caused dozens of problems. No longer did the likes of Dreadnoughts ever see a weapon upgrade (because doing so would give it a functionally-useless weapon that would never hit as it moved towards close-combat and hindered its melee power to boot), and the weapon immediately made rapid-firing weapons dozens of times better than those that fired slowly, since it was much more likely that they could hit with a few shots than their counterparts. Vehicles and personnel intended to fire on the move (such as Terminators) became functionally useless, whilst the Eldar Fleet of Foot ability became tantamount to godmode (initially it reduced accuracy when activated, but now with the flat 15% fire accuracy there was no reason not to use it when moving units. Also the Eldar Harlequin could fire a 10000+damage attack that would kill one unit in a squad, but due to how it was coded, could target and instagib a commander unit that was attached to said squad.

Pretty nice, especially with optional helmets

Well, Primaris marines army are very big step into "avrage sci-fi" direction design-wise.
Im pissed how DOW3 was terrible in the story like holy fuck it had no memorable moments

Atleast DOW2 had good scenes
Reminder that the Blood Ravens are a loyalist Thousand Sons chapter.

This is what happens when you forget who your core audience is and you MOBAdize the game.
Take Macha - this is straight Dota/LoL hero gameplay. Throw spear, boom explosion, whole squad wiped.
Squads are creeps for heroes to kill, I don't remember in DoW 1 heroes obliterate whole squads so fast with 1-2 skills...

>GW is fucking up 40k with this fucking gay ass military shit
Please explain.
>>384482124
>40k games are cursed by Sega now.
It was cursed by GW, who will never give money for good 40k game, years ago.
>>384483468
I will give them credit for sticking to the game and at least trying to do post-release content, ifevem half the rumors are true.
>>384468415
This. DoW 2 was a massive fucking improvement over the first game in every way and 3 is the result of retards crying about no base building and smaller unit caps so we got this utterly depthless blobfest just like the garbage first game. If they had just continued making the 40K game they wanted in 2's direction we would have gotten another great game. This is why devs should not listen to vocal minorities.
>>384483746
You and all the other DoWvDoW2 fags are wrong. Sega didn't listen to anyone on this except themselves, and THQ wasn't just ready to scrap the series for a MOBA, they actually fucking did. Neither company really listened to fans.
>>384482124
>>384483919
Yeah, nah, you're have to source your facts about THQ or SEGA having anything to do with DoW3 being absolute shit.
>>384483518
And how are GW to blame exactly? They give you a license and it's up to you to make a good game.
>>384483610
I don't know, chances are that they did it to milk as much money as possible out of the carcass of the game before shutting it down.
Some guy on /v/ used the term "zombieware" and I think it's very appropriate.
Also a bit of Trivia: they never finished making some alternate weapon skins they promised since the beginning of developement and never refunded the people that bought them.
>>384468936
>40k would make for a better total war game than warhammer fantasy.
This faggot again.
>>384484313
An interview with a Relic employee came out right after DoW3's release talking about how the games development went. They had just started on the first version when THQ anounced bankruptcy and had to shift gear.
>>384484330
That's another reason people think they're sticking to the game, since they still have to make a console release on top of adding in the skins and Elite Classesone of which I bought that's still fucking not in yetpeople already bought. They literally can't afford to stop.
>>384484313
>And how are GW to blame exactly?
Because of their greed.
Do you realise that today none of AAA devs will come to GW for 40k license if they have to pay shitton of money for it?
>>384481509
Been away from 40k for a while, are geedubs doing true scale now? Is chaos still shit?
>>384485116
>Been away from 40k for a while, are geedubs doing true scale now?
Nope, just bigger
Honestly the core gameplay of DoW3 is just broken on a fundamental level. Extremely fragile units coupled with slow resource gains, long build times, overpowered elites that melt units like butter, those fucking endgame super weapons, and a terrible visual style all add up to a mediocre experience. The game needs a full overhaul just to decent.
>>384485242
>Nope, just bigger
So they're just making normal space marines minis bigger now?
>>384485723
yes, but it's a new kind of space marines

>Shortly after the conclusion of the Horus Heresy, Guilliman predicted that another major Chaos attack on the Imperium might come at some point in the future
Hang about, wasn't Guilliman in stasis after the HH?
It's sad that people went full apeshit about this game, it has the best mp gameplay in all of dows and sp isn't as bad as people try to imply.
