Warhammer 40k - Dawn of War 4

Kyo · Tuesday at 20:05

Looks like Gameplay back to basics. Fingers crossed it's better than 2 & 3.

Hmm shows 4 factions. No doubt the others being made to be released as DLC

I know 3 was really terrible but I thought the second one was very well received? I certainly liked it a lot - it was great fun in co-op.

Super looking forward to this regardless.

Damn, beaten!

This certainly has me a lot more excited than the disappointing Definitive Edition of the first game

Good start to Gamescon week, looking forward to what else is announced

Hope they get it right.
4 was a complete slog to play through.

I still go back to play Dark Crusade every now and then.

Need to see more gameplay, what we saw didn’t fill me with excitement for a decent RTS.

Fingers crossed it's more DW2

One day they will make an era with titans etc..

Fingers crossed its more like the original! 2 was meh at best...

Fingers crossed they put plenty of effort into the campaign. I couldn't really care about the multiplayer, as the Dawn of War games have always been about the campaign for me. Too many modern RTSes have barebones campaigns that feel like crude funnels to push you into multiplayer so you can get spending on cosmetics.

Pleased to see Gorgutz 'Ead'Unter make a return. I wonder if he's yet realised that having some pointy stikks with feet on them would actually complement his fine collection of heads?

Liked both but found 2 better.

And at least the terminators actually looked like terminators !

Cool. Hope it's good.

Hope we get a sequel to Battlesector as well, as that is a brilliant 40k game, which could do with more fleshing out

Looks good so far and the fact it plays like the the first Dawn of War is excellent.

Vinno · Thursday at 21:03

I watched this today and it got me even more excited for the game. They seem to be saying all of the right things for me so far....

Noticed they mentioned Iron Harvest thats meant to be pretty decent right?

Klunt Bumskrint · Friday at 10:46

Yes. Added to my wishlist

I was hyped for that but I stopped playing very quickly Can't remember why. Gunna try it again.

Rimsy · Friday at 11:14

Looking very promising… holding breath!

Might have a play though of Dawn of War Definitive Edition whilst we wait.
