DoW 2 is better

I fucking hate retards that talk like this

>>717372554 (OP)
Feels weird seeing some vidya devs from early 2000s still active when all the big devs from company like Blizzard/Bungie retired

How do I revert to the original logo?

>>717374224
blizzard is full of rapists and pedos allegedly
microsoft likely asked them to leave after they got acquired

They gonna add Nids as a DLC down the line kind of how AOEII added some new empires?

>phil boulle, the dow3 director, came back

dropped this shit so fast after they added female space marines

>>717375754
There are no female space marines in DoW1, queer.

>>717375050
No, this is a low-effort texture upscale and resolution support. Lelic won't commit to fixing/adding content.

>>717372852
lol you will never win tranny

>>717373068
THEIR EYES DONT FUCKING GLOW ANYMORE THIS GAME IS FUCKED DOA CASHGRAB DOGSHIT WESTOID SLOP

>>717377230
Seems fine

>>717372554 (OP)
It's funny that the ONLY Eldar they've shown so far is a single Falcon for ~5 seconds in this video.
Have to wonder why they're hiding the Elves.

>>717376670
>>717376670
Youre such a lying faggot.

>>717372554 (OP)
I'm usually interested in RTS remakes, but FFS, this is literally fucking nothing, why are people okay with this shit.

It's literally just an AI texture and a minor lightning change for what, 40$?. That's fucking it, they haven't even promised a single QoL improvements even though DoW1 could easily use many.
They aren't even improving any of the effects, like making the peashooter bolters look a bit better, or just the projectiles in general not feeling as punchy as they should be. They aren't adding even a single extra rock or crack to the flat as fuck maps either.
Also they aren't adding a single piece of new content either.

As much as I would love to see DoW return, this zero effort shit does deserve backlash, and it's surreal seeing people eat this up. Like you tards realize that the DoW1 collection is already on steam. Just copypaste the better camera mod into one of the game's folders and you already got 90% of what this remaster is going to be

>>717377596
They are hiding eldar so as to not reveal they've buffed them yet again because it turns out they didn't have an above 80% win ratio which is unacceptable.

>>717377639
What content is being added, lelic-shill?

>>717377676
>they haven't even promised a single QoL improvements
Apart from, y'know, 64bit support.

>>717377728
The fucking memory limit is lifted you stupid nigger who can only learn from your betters by acting like a shitty brown

>>717377784
that isn't new content, you sound like a tf2 player

Dark eldar players look like that!?

>>717377834
Damn nvm you are a total nigger who is just always in that state instead of baiting

>>717377676
well the 64bit support is great. it's $30 with a 30% discount for everyone that owns dow1, so really only $20 to everyone who cares. also pathing is said to be better.
i think that alone will be worth $20 as long as it's true and they didnt fuck it up.

>>717377924

in what way does that make the game itself better?

>>717377942
> also pathing is said to be better
said by who? I'm not finding anything about that
and no, this shit does not worth even $20. That's still the price of a pricier dlc, not a "literally fucking nothing, just an extremely marginal visual update's"

lmao the games don't even support widescreen natively. Of course that being added in is >>717378421

>>717377676
warhammer niggers will literally eat ANYTHING up as long as it's set in 40k universe. i had people who never gave a fuck about boomer shooters piss and shit themselves after playing mediocrity that is boltgun

>>717378508
This

>>717378323
man somehow they made necron even faggier than eldar how is that even possible

>>717372554 (OP)
pretty stoked.
really wish they had a grid option in menu.
also need "select all army" and "add/create and remove from other groups."
after playing so much SC2 with these I really can't feel comfortable without the efficiency. maybe i'll finally git gud and play without SAA.
but still those two commands, SAA and add/remove, makes it so you can select newly created units and manage control groups without looking.
say your units are in control groups 1 and 2. you've just produced another batch of units and want to add them to 2, and get this, WITHOUT LOOKING.
select all army, add to 2 adds new units plus group 1 to group 2, select group 1, add/remove group 1 to pulls group 1 out of group 2. you now have the new units added to group 2 without moving camera.
in SC2 i have SAA as tilde and add/remove as alt. so it's just tilde, shift-2, 1, alt-1.
or create a third group with the new units by tilde, shift-3, 1, alt-1, 2, alt-2.

then again all the pros don't use SAA so maybe it's time to stop being a casual.
still stoked for DoW

I hope they fix the text scaling because shit is unreadable when playing at 8k.

>>717379113
DoW isn't really the same kind of game as SC2 so I don't think you'll miss SAA that much if it isn't in

>>717377976
Why? I hate dumb niggers and revel in it. You have a small brown malnourished cock

>>717372554 (OP)
Oh, cool. It had better not be more than twenty doll-

???? It's a janky 2004 PC RTS with a Warhammer 40k skin. Literal clown world nonsense.

>>717378508

>>717372554 (OP)
WOW! THE SAME OLD SHIT I PLAYED 20 YEARS AGO!!!!!!!! THANK YOU! VIDEO GAMES ARE SAVED!!!!!!

>>717379113
in DoW1 the button for last notification also selects the last squad/vehicle that was made. This allows you to shift it together with the control group without looking.

>then again all the pros don't use SAA
nah, many uses it at least from time to time. I remember Hero Marine being pretty back and forth on whether he should use it sometimes or not

>>717379212
> I don't think you'll miss SAA that much if it isn't in
nah, DoW1 absolutely could use SAA. There are tons of times when you just have some troops scattered and don't know where the fuck some them are, being able to select them anytime would be great. It's also just good in general to be able to select all units of a specific type to put them into a group
DoW1 might not have the apm intensive economy of SC, but it's combat still absolutely benefits from you using control groups, as there is a lot of unit-countering going on that you have to snappily react to.

that being said, I don't think this remaster will add any new features since they would have likely already announced them. If anything this remaster just crushes my dreams of ever getting an actual improved DoW1 experience.

>>717379513
that's not the definitive edition
it was 7 bux during summer sale

>>717379807
>but it's combat still absolutely benefits from you using control groups, as there is a lot of unit-countering going on
>so that means I should retard ball everything and throw it towards places like in SC2
you aren't good at dawn of war lol

>>717379805
Mmmm yes, you sure showed they/them!
I am also a fellow sloppa enjoyer, I love paying for the same game I already own as well.

>>717378954
necron lore is really bad

>>717378090
You see anon, relic was just being tabletop accurate.
Five Dragons in a Falcon is the most menacing unit someone can bring to the board in 40k, and is only surpassed by five Dragons and Fuegan in a Falcon.

>>717372554 (OP)
You really think so anon? I kind of doubt it

Only getting it when the mods like Unification and the sort work properly on it. Vanilla DoW1 is just boring without mods

>>717379881
>so that means I should retard ball everything and throw it towards places like in SC2
lmao when the fuck did I say that anon
why are you making up a quote that is straight up the fucking opposite of what I was talking about, which is using different control groups for different unit types

>>717378954
lost their roots

>>717373068
bottom ground textures are somehow worse no anisotropic filter perhaps?

>>717380131
you can already do that though, idiot

>>717373068
Don't you mean
>Soulless vs Soulless

>>717380192
who the fuck said you can't do that. I said the game would benefit from SAA since that makes assinging specific unit types to a group easier

>>717380268
>coomerslop

>>717375754
What female space marines? If you mean the Sisters of Battle in Soulstorm, they're not space marines.

>>717380301
lol you're a retard

Outside of the 64bit thing isnt basically everything else covered by mods already? Why do we need these

Crucible and Unification mods are cool, shame UA trannies are focusing on the autistic 1vs1 meta faggots now.

>>717380432
learn to shut the fuck up man

so have they said anything about multiplayer? will there be ranked matchmaking? or it is just lobbies again

the amount of shit flinging about a remaster that isn't even out yet is insane. Literally making stuff up to get mad at the game for no reason.
You retards really need to get a life

>>717380482
>I'm too stupid to use control groups without grabbing every single point capturing unit outside my army and then deselecting them so you need to shut up!!!!

It's going to flop, unfortunately

>>717380669
it's just 40k fans being their pathetic selves, female custodes, terminus degree etc etc whereas the ACTUAL stupid shit like wraithbone being a mined mineral they don't care about

>>717380669
people are mad at the fact that it's another low effort remaster because relic is no longer with sega and needs to make a quick buck

Death to shills

>>717380815
>whereas the ACTUAL stupid shit like wraithbone being a mined mineral they don't care about
Is this some kind of elaborate multi-layered bait?

>>717377868
cute, would take out to dinner to sperg out about my guys

>>717380697
noone says you have to use SAA in the occasions when it's not practical you you retard, you decide when you use it.
What assbackwards logic do you have to so desperately try justifying not having an objecctively useful feature that is also very common in the genre

>>717381164
seethe and cope you're the one with the problem retard

So did they fix the shitty vehicle pathing or what? That's the only thing I need to know.

>>717381239
I think pathfinding fixes were mentioned.

>>717381065
no, it's not, if wraithbone is a mined mineral instead of crystallised psychic energy, then the C'tan should have control over it, negating the entire purpose of the Eldar.

>>717381239
yeah now the trains drive directly to your mom's bedroom instead of stopping at mcdonalds first

>>717381227
you are the one who assaulted me for merely suggesting that this feature could be useful, which is an objective fact

>>717381294
Nice. I'll have to see it to believe it though

how about you stop chimping out for no fucking reason over a most logical post in a video game discussion thread

>>717381536
how about you act like a man instead of crying online because you are shitty at a video game

Dawn of War II is an objective upgrade over DoW1. If you don't give this post (you)s you agree by default.

>>717372554 (OP)
>people prefer the poo trash Unification over UA
Literally how?

>>717381262
Anon it's not a mined mineral.
Nowhere in the Codex does it say that Wraithbone is mined, and in fact there's several mentions of Bonesingers.
The reason nobody cared about that is because the leaks made it sound way worse, when in reality all GW did was say it's a composite material.
Which makes sense considering even as a Warp-based material it still has to be mare out of something substantial.
It's the equivalent of saying
>Bloodthirster axes are made of Warp Brass, which is Brass from the Warp

>>717379950
Not in 2004-8 they weren't. The fact that each dragon weighs more than a squiggoth is BULLSHIT.

>>717379513
That's the original complete edition faggot.
The remaster is $60

>>717378421
Go back to r9k

>>717377676

Cattle, the word you're looking for is cattle. Warhammer and fans deserve to have their entire life savings drained away by the company they worship so much.

The upcoming remaster is $30, $20 if you own the previous edition.

>devs are chuds
Reddit aint gonna like this!

>>717383461
Banshees are Best.

>>717383830
I know you're probably posting this to be a funny meme man, but the pathfinding really is so bad that it's nearly gamebreaking.
If the remaster brings in feature parity between the campaigns without having to use buggy mods, better pathfinding and improved binding and camera control options, it might actually be worth it.

>>717372554 (OP)
AI slop cash grab, and the game itself has aged horribly. It comes from the same shitty era of awkward early 3D RTS games as C&C Generals, Age of Mythology, etc and pales in comparison to the second one.

>>717384158
They are bullshit good once upgraded given they aren't T3. Without a character to swing the tide they'll beat most melee units in the game - especially with banshee scream. I *think* possessed will beat them but basically everything else loses 1v1. Hell with call of war and fleet turned on they run at the same speed as landspeeders lol.

>>717384186
>but the pathfinding really is so bad that it's nearly gamebreaking.
Remember when broadsides came in squads of 3 like (at the time) the TT? They patched the game to make them into a single model super unit because their slooow walking meant they kept getting fucked by pathfinding and were often never close enough together to actually deploy and thus do anything.

>>717381712
It still makes no sense because wraithbone is just pure psychic energy given a material form that the space elves will into existence. It's a completely separate type of matter from stuff like iron or copper and it's not made with anything else.

>>717384018
>Mechanicus ruined them.
I hope you aren't talking about the game because otherwise you are being a complete retard

>>717384693
nta but wraithbone has always been "lmao psychic eldar shit that is whatever we need it to be". The infinity circuit(s) is made of the stuff and warp spiders like to live there.

>Acknowledging old tac marines, old designs in general, including a lot of shit that got turbo retconned like pariahs
this is very surprising for modern GW

>>717385280
Retard, GW acknowledges the past constantly. Just over the top of my head, some Primaris marines in this edition have mk7 helmets and they brought back the Squads mortars for the Votann as well as remastering a Crimson Fist captain model

>>717384702
I absolutely am. It turned them into some comedic British nonsense.

Why are SoB and Dark Eldar so shit compared to the Tau and Necrons? Soulstorm overall was a buggy piece of shit.

>>717385796
Nah that doesn't count actually

seems really lazy, especially when AoE2 and AoM had such big updates and are older games

>>717385842
You didn't play the game

>>717385908
You were never going to get something like AoE2. Relic is self-publishing while AoE2 has the backing of Microsoft. Relic also has a shitty track record. They would honestly just fuck it up. They changed the voiceover scream in the their remastered trailer for no reason and once they received a backlash, said they would change it back.

>>717385842
mechanics has 0 humour, it could not be more serious. you are mistaking it for trazyn and orikan novel perhaps? that has some humour to it

>>717385850
Literally B-Team devs that THQ contracted while Relic was making DoW2, while also demanding certain additions (such as Flyers) that the engine wasn't built for.

>>717386014
>>717386219
Please stop embarrassing yourselves. The Necrons in that game are literally goofy bullshit that talk like 1700's British lords and sailors. It's soulless and cringe.

>>717372554 (OP)
>foid is obsessed with Dark Elder and the Nids
Like pottery

>>717383476
fun fact: i like that the fact that people post comments like that pisses you off

So do we know what this remaster does besides 64bit support?

AI upscaled textures?
""""improved path finding"""""

Is that basically all we can expect?

>>717380184
The texture is brighter which makes zero fucking sense given that they're supposed to be in the same lighting conditions. Once again a remaster is being done by people who pay zero attention to detail.

>>717377676
64-bit update so UA shouldn't chug dick trying to render more than 300 units onscreen. Them asking for a payout makes me assume that other companies will follow suit looking at the metrics alone if it does well. Empire Earth, Supreme Commander, Rise of Nations, Sins of a Solar Empire etc all getting the demake treatment. Meanwhile CnC basically gave 75% of their source code away to let people do it for free.

>>717377676
Its ok to admit you don't understand what is changing, you don't have to post a long winded reply of nothing raging at things you're wrong about.

The 64-bit change means that modders and players can now change everything you complained about, before that it was basically impossible.
