Original looks better
FulLy mAteriALizeD, aNd prEPareD for wAr
>>715178808 (OP)Beyond the obvious purpose of making money there is no point to this existing. It adds nothing to the original.
>>715178808 (OP)>20+ dollars for a slight texture upgrade, maybePass. This is the sort of thing that some games just give for free if you already had the original.
Reminder that Relic can't make a good rts to save their lives so they have to AI UPSCALE an already established title.
>>715178808 (OP)are they going to remove the original from the store?
>>715179229Wait is it really actually AI? I was wondering why it looks like garbage, guess that explains it
>>715178808 (OP)>dawn of war 1 has pretty much every single major 40k faction except the tyranids for some fucking reasonReally makes me mad.
>>715178808 (OP)I don't care about graphics or 32/64. Will they improve the pathfinding? If so, then I will buy it.
>>715178808 (OP)$20 for 64 bit support and AI upscaling of textures seems a bit much but if it offers better mod support it would be worth it.
>>715178808 (OP)Not bad. Makes me think there's a catch like somehow they made it buggier.
>>715180340It does say improved pathfinding which will be nice. I didn't think they would get to it until after it was released.
>>715178808 (OP)So what exactly is this even going to add because I can play Dark Crusade right now and it'll just work perfectly fine.
>>715181531dark crusade is a buggy piece of shit
>>715182509works for me(tm)
They won't even put in a minimal amount of effort to improve anything. Like giving the cutscenes their own animations instead of rubbing action figures against each other while units shoot through each other in the background.
>>715178898>>715179621are you low brain activity fags for real?
>>715178808 (OP)>29.99 for a shitty upscale and some QOL FeaturesPass, Devs should Make Good new games instead of "remastering" old ones.
>>715184254Relic has not made a good game in a long time.
did they fix the goddamn fucking goddamn dogshit pathing???
do I have to buy all the goddamn fucking races separately again??
>>715184509They said it comes with pathfinding improvements. The games are bundled together where you basically choose which .exe you want to play.
There's gotta be a catch. They fucked it up somehow. They went out of their way to make something worse or woke or some shit.
Calling it now.
>>715185032>the game now uses the GW copyrighted names for races
>>715185032They're simply reselling the same old game with better textures because Space Marine 2 sold well. That's it. They want you to buy the same exact game you already own. Its straight up judaism
>>715184509it’s really just vehicles that path bad, squads needs a long/short range stance instead of better pathing
>>715178808 (OP)I can barely tell the difference between the remaster and the original to be honest. So it's basically $20 for 64-bit support and maybe some QoL stuff like better pathfinding
>>715184348then they should get their priorities right and make a good damned Game.
its an RTS, they dont' need to hire thousands of Jeets or rainbow colored freaks, Just make something that looks decent and make DoW1 on a much grander scale.
remasters and remakes are inexcusable as they often undermine or de-list the originals which worked perfectly fine before.
>>715179460of course its AI, we are entering the era of AI slop remasters.
Get ready.
>>715178808 (OP)They ruined my epic scream !
>>715183450>rubbing action figures against each other while units shoot through each other in the backgroundsovl
>>715178808 (OP)completely unnesessary
>>715178808 (OP)>took original cinematic>AI upscaled, which is good>then interpolated it for some ungodly reason, making it a smear>add fucking voicelines for no reasonShan't be buying.
>>715178808 (OP)i will buy it to experience an active multiplayer scene for exactly 1 week before it dies. i love this game
>>715178808 (OP)Mods will be good, shame Ultimate Apocalypse and Unification dev teams are retarded niggers who focus on the PvP aspect to please their autistic groomer friends.
>>715185254>squads needs a long/short range stancedont they already?
I loved DoW1 but I won't be buying this shovelware.
Do a proper remake or I'm not interested.
>>715185995rts is a pvp genre

>>715185695tsmt
>>715186172It's not though, PvE and custom campaigns are massively more popular than PvP. Look at SC2's modding scene. Or WC3's modding scene, you know that niche mod, Defense of the Ancients?
>>715185917>Hear comes the big boom!fuck off...
>no primaris
not playing this shit
>>715178808 (OP)Why would I pay modern relic 30 bucks for a game I already own, made by 99% people that no longer work there?
>>715178808 (OP)any fixes to the geriatric engine?
>>715178808 (OP)The comparisons on the store page are hilarious. Literally looks exactly the same but bigger?
I'm interested if only for the 64bit support. Should make my most liked mod of all time a bit more stable when shit gets intense.
>>715186481Maybe they'll add an DLC for your expansion pack faction.
price doesnt seem bad. i might get it.
>>715184637>They said it comes with pathfinding improvements.Source? There's nothing in announcement.
>>715179050>mods using more than 2 gigs of RAM>no point
>>715187734Imagine
>ultimate apocalypse>but stable
>>715187682It's at the end of their video when they list the game's improvements. Pretty dumb of them.

>>715186397wrong and dota isnt rts.
>>715188203refunding the second my squiggoth gets stuck
>>715188882moba is a genre that requires far, far more skill than any rts
>>715189004I 'member when broadsides came in units of 3 but relic had to patch them into a super single member because with their slow movement they kept getting fucked by the pathfinding so they never got the chance to setup. Fun times.
We need a real DoW3 with the Blood Ravens
>Angelos summoned by Girlyman or some shit

>Undivided Chaoschuds show up en masse

>Necrons wake up all over the planet and fuck everyone up
>Blood Ravens fighting multiple enemies and are about to get their shit kicked in
>Angelos drops in from the sky along with Girlyman and a few other Spess Mehreen reinforcements
>Imperiumwinslol
>base factions are Space Marines/Imperial Guard/Eldar/Chaosniggers/Orks/Tyranids/Necrons
>first DLC is Imperium focused with the Adeptus Mechanicus, Custodes, Inquisition and Sisters of Battle
>second DLC are xenos with Tau, Dark Eldar, Harlequins, Farsight Enclaves
>Leagues of Votann are free update, no one cares about manlets
>>715189260RTS are unprofitable
>b-but just make goo...RTS "fandom" will never agree what a good RTS is and wider audience doesn't care
>>715186481>primarisYou mean red scorpions?
There’s a reason they were fw only. Screamers and beakies are infinitely cooler
>>715189718personally, i can only enjoy a game if it makes money.
I only accept godwyn-deaz pattern bolters.
>>715190434>>715190531Show them the vehicles.

PRIMARIS ARE NOT MY MUHREENS. If I have to start citing 3rd edition bah gawd I will.
>>715191436That is the fallout of marines being too important to scrap and restart like they did for DE and SoB.
>>715189718they’re profitable at a low AA budget
>>715191436It's such an easy fix
>Models in Tactics Armor take up two slots in a rhino or razorback.Full Bladeguard squads in rhinos, min squads in razorbacks, min intercessors/hellblasters and a character in rhinos, or Incinerators or whatever. This gives rhinos and especially razorbacks a reason to be in the book and gives further distinction between tacticus and gravis armor. Land raiders still count them as one slot.
I own the original on CD with CD key can I use this? Probs not

>>715178808 (OP)I bought dow3 physical for some godforsaken reason, they should hand deliver me a key for this
HWITNESS YOUR DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMah!!!!
I just honestly wish they re-released the OG with borderless support.
It was flawless otherwise.
>>715178808 (OP)I mean, I will play it since DoW1 is fantastic, but it's a shame it's just the absolute laziest definitive edition imaginable.
They don't even seem to have fixed the low quality awful tinny ear bleeding sound effects.
i pick random
if spess - rush tempests and bomb enemy base
if chaos - rush hell talons and bomb enemy base
if eldar - build cloaked webway behind enemy base
if necron - move necron lord into enemy base and spam flayed ones + rez orb
if ig - fuck it, basilisks
if ork - WAAAGH
if tau - shoot thing
if sisters - flamethrowers
if deldar - max out every upgrade on mandrakes

PREPER TOH DEHPSTRIKE
>>715191436Feels good to completely ignore tabletop slop.
>>715200986The fun part is 90% of 10 mins no rush players are shitters who think turtling works. I have in my day proved them wrong.
>>715201293the tabletop has only gotten worse in every way, be that mechanics or story
40k was always marine centric but these days its 95% marines and 5% for the rest
Hmmmm I have the Starship Troopers RTS on my backlog I think I'll save my $20 and play it instead.
>>715201367You don't really prove anything wrong. The no-rush people are just casuals that can't micro, that's why they're always a turtle. They play the only way they can, shitting on noobs is easy who woulda thought.
>>715201540NOOO ANON YOU MUST SPEND 40 BUCKS ON AN ANCIENT GAME WITH AI-UPSCALED TEXTURES MADE BY PAJEETS
>>715201621My experience has taught me otherwise - they are mid-tier players who seek to get the jump on n00bs but can't actually handle a skilled player, which is why a majority of them actually DO act before 10 mins. Usually sometime around 7 as that is the time it takes - under QS rules - for a mid tier player to amass a T3 army. Problem is a good player gets a T3 army in roughly 5 mins or less so when I see those infiltrating cultists attempt to sneak up on my i've got 3 landspeeders ready to jump into their pass for the drop pod assault to wreck their shit. To say nothing of the 3 min banshee rush.
Maybe they will pull an AoE2 and add Nids in.
>>715202138I have zero reason to believe that it's gonna be anything more than a minimum effort cashgrab
>>715198410>knows it's low effort slop>will buy it anywayslol mindbroken retard
I’ve never been interested in 40k but I must say that Soulstorm with the Unification Mod is some of the best single player fun I’ve had in a while.
Voicelines do get a bit repetitive though

>>715202252Fear denys faith.
>>715202786Best artillery ever put into an RTS.
>>715203362Better than Supreme Commander? Feels good building things that reach out really far.
>>715178808 (OP)>PLEASE SAR, BUY THE AI REMASTER SARFuck off, if you want our money make a new game. Oh wait you can't because all your talent fucking left.
The new textures are shit and 64 bit support isn't worth the price tag.
>>715202375Gonna be trying this out soon. Did you have much trouble with it? How is stability?
>>715203505Yes. You do artillery with sensors and scouts right in warzone you can drop the hammer from basically the entire map away at the higher tech levels.
>>715203573NTA, but I've had no crashes since installing DXVK through the game's mod manager.
>>715203573Installation is easy, runs fine unless you bump skirmish settings up really high (4x unit cap, 8v8 map, weather system enabled etc).
>>715203739>>715203718Noted brothers, thank you.
>>715203739Yeah, just avoid high pop cap and don't add a ton of computer controlled AI. I could play for maybe 30 minutes in a 2v2 but much longer with no crash in a 1v1.
Imagine being actively willing to pay for all these shitty "definitive edition" releases or whatever kind of bullshit they call it
Normalfags are so damn dumb, you were too busy playing GTA and Call of Duty to play Dawn of War for all these years?
Any actual statement or proof that they used AI upscaling or is it just racist chuds sperging out?
>>715187886i bet it will still crash while alt+tabbing
>>715179693>>715193393they said in recent trailer that panthfinding will get tweaked so we will see
>>715201293NOOOO you're a le "´secondary´" (bazinga)

Also do necrons actually talk? I don't know much about their lore why do the speak static in 40k?
>>715206921Only the leaders, all others below them are pretty much mindless machines at this point

>>715206921Warriors and Canopteks are mindless and run in pre-programmed imperatives.
Immortals have fairly mundane and rudimentary conciousness and are capable of speaking, often to limited degrees (Yes/No answers, pre-programmed statements, basic tactics)
Lychguard have fairly decent concious thought and are capable of speaking, though often don't due to their stations.
Lords and above are fully capable of speaking, though many have certain 'mental' handicaps due to malfunctions of the Long Sleep.

>>715188203All the changed and redone sounds and voices are worse than the original and I don't think it's nostalgia
>>715216848Don't know why they messed with the sound in the trailer. I hope they did not touch the voices in the game.
Dawn of War fans genuinely (genuinely), seem like the lowest IQ 40k fans. Can anyone explain why it seems like that?
>>715186481Primaris are dogshit.
It doesn't actually look any better, so what exactly are we paying for here?
will i be able to take old maps and put them into definitive edition? will a mapmaker be included?
>>715204553It's funny because I think 40k is literally the only franchise where I think being a primary fan makes you an objectively worse person than a secondary fan.
I genuinely enjoy wargaming but 10e 40k is rancid dogshit.
>>715188203>added voice lines>removed iconic warcry>changed music - far less intense>butchered audio in generalWhoever greenlit these changes should unironucally be fired.
>>715217056I'm hoping they at least realized that it'd be a good idea to have an option between old and new audio, like literally every other RTS remaster
>>715216848like the graphics the voices will be AI-enhanced.
