Very good run-down of the Multiplayer aspect of the game from a Relic Forums person.

Man, Eldar are overpowered in this beta. Their suppression unit is just too cheap, and they can churn out walker, avatar, prism in short order. I love my SM but you really got to coordinate well with them.

Yeah, I agree about the Eldar. I've been playing mostly Marines and Nids, and so far so long as you're playing a team game, not a 1v1, the eldar are less lethal, I've noticed. But the Shruiken Cannon + Banshee rush in 1v1 is brutal. Basically nothing you have at tier 1 can counter it.

Hey guys I bought the Dawn of War 2 game a couple of days ago and the campaign setting is so cool, its so much more story driven than the last game. One of the best features that I just LOVE is that each of your veteran sergeants have their own voice and personality, listening to them talk and argue with each other during and off mission is awesome. (especially those funny moments)

Is anyone still playing? Overall I was kind of disappointed by the Multiplayer aspect of it... Single player was incredibly epic, though.

i was very very disappointed with game has a whole graphics were good but unbalanced still and very bad game play relic not heard the term of IF IT AIN'T BROKE DON'T FIX IT ! give me Dow 1 any day

I was going to try the demo for dow 2. But my computer said *GRRRNKK... Don't!!!* And as such i couldn't play it.

But all i've heard of it (most anyways) is that it's somewhat ok gameplay, but everything sucks, except for the broken things.

And tyranid termagaunts wasn't swarm...... i was like? ???!

And then i've never bothered with it again.

I'm inclined to agree with you Inquisitor Lord.
I just played a few of the single player missions at a friend's house and was not a big fan

The graphics are fantastic, but that is unfortunatly not enough to cover the games short commings.
I was dissapointed with
*the small amount of troops/squads at your disposal.
*How easy the levels and "bosses" were to defeat.
*and the lack of mini movies or story line stuff involved.

The earlier games required strategy and had a sence of urgency to them when you were deploying or moving. From what I experienced of DOW 2 I could just stroll though the level killing stuff and regenerate my characters everytime they fell.

Maybe the game gets better the further in you get, or it is a different story in the multi-player format but in general I was dissapointed

What really pissed me on is that i can´t play it offline. I´m using a Mobile Connect Card and Steam doesn´t like that kind of connection.

Hey, I'm just popping back into this thread to spread the news that there have been several patches. I've returned to the multiplayer aspect at the urging of a friend who assured me things are now much, much better.

After a day of playing myself, I must say... yeah, things aren't too bad.

Multiplayer is a lot better now, and the majority of the horrific balance problems plaguing the game have mostly been fixed, as far as I can tell. Anyway, I think I'm going to give multiplayer another shot.

Awesome to hear brother Praexes; I'll have to drop in and have a few matches. Still hopeing that expansions get released soon.

Chaos and Imperial Guard are unofficially confirmed for the next expansion, rumoured to come out Q1 or 2 2010.

Are Daemonhunters on the same 5 year plan for DoW II as well? ... ... ...
