Dawn of War 3 will be better.
We can only hope

I'm still on the fence about it but it's early days.

It kind of looks like a mobile game honestly, but it's something I'd still play.
Yeah the graphics are a little... eh but I can live with them being sub-par.

It's the three races thing that worries me.

I doubt they are gonna do proper expansions like WA/DC/SS and go more along the lines of 'here have a new race pack!' and that will break my blood-pump.

What?! Only three races? I didn't know that. Hopefully they don't adopt the same policy as Dawn of War Two. I will be livid if Imperial Guard is not included.

Spoiler
Also Death Korps of Krieg or bust. I don't want to see the generic guard uniform again.
Yeah, Orks Eldar and Spehss Mehrens

Wow, no Chaos Space Marines or Necrons? At least they have the Eldar, but even they look generic so far.

IG are my life, so not having them is a bit of a fun-killer.

Played some rounds. it was physically unpleasant to play.

The UI is cluttered and all over the place, the FOV feels too low and the zoom level is atrocious. It feels lile I'm looking at a brick wall. It should be able to zoom out more, bevause everything feels clustered and annoying. I'm kind glad it crashed in the second game because I really wanted to stop playing because of this.

Outside of that, it's alright. Some changes good, some bad. Not particuoarly endearing one way or the other. If it were to launch as it is now I probably wouldn't buy.

But it is. The cap may be 100, but the lowest costing pop units are 5-6 depending on your faction.

In Halo Wars the pop count is 60 max (in beta) but marines cost 3 pop to build now.

So it's still less.

You might want to math there.

You'd have 20 squads of marines and space marines either way. Also no, the max is not 60 in the beta, you can get an upgrade to your pop count in the armory/war council.

And it was garbage.

Literally the only good bit about DOW2 was the last stand mode and the copious amounts of memes it spawned.

Regardless of whether or not we liked it, it is considered a good RTS by many people and that's why DoW 3 is going to continue down the path 2 started. I absolutely hate what 2 did, but it seems like we're in the minority.

Another RTS that has a similar cap and unit cost is the base Company of Heroes

CoH was fine because it was fitting for the design of the game

DOW went from large scale to Moba tier shite

DOW 3 looks like a bastard hybrid of 1 and 2 and I'm not looking forwards to it further ruining the original. It's gonna be a mediocre promo-game

It's what I hate about some of the newer BL fiction too, half of the books are dripping with intext advertisements for the new lines of models they are shitting out.

The point here was that the quality of an RTS isn't dependent on the players ability to spam units. I was bringing up other RTS games with similar pop caps and unit costs to illustrate this point.

As you already know I agree with you on the DoW stuff.

I thought you'd be able to answer that one yourself, but I'll hold your hand through this one. The RTS genre is near non-existent on the console so the console community doesn't know anything about the genre.

I literally just explained to you that the ability to spam units isn't doesn't dictate the quality of an RTS, you know the reason you were arguing Halo Wars 2 is worse than 1.

Don't accuse people of being brain dead and being a cunt when you're the one being rude and forgetting what it was you were even arguing.

Learn to read, brain-dead cunt

I never said anything about spamming units, I said the cap was small. A sequel allowing less units on screen than the original is just dumb. what the fuck does that have to do with spamming units?

Then you randomly brought up that because I'm a "console player" I measure an RTS games quality on how many units I can spam, when you can spam units way more on games like Starcraft, so much so that it spawned the term Zerg-rush.

Get your head out of your ass

Like it has nothing to do with spamming it has to do with halo wars is selling the fantasy of big battles with armies and scorpions and scarabs and Pelicans and shit but the game feels like nothing but a quick skirmish.
