Dawn of War II

Post by Brother-Captain Validi on Sun May 18, 2008 8:00 pm

Yes!!! It's officialy underway and the graphics look brilliant, the Blood Ravens are fighting Orks, destroyed tanks leave wreakage, there's more blood and it unsurprisingly looks like Company of Heroes (same developer for Dow and CoH (Relic if you don't know)) so be prepared for THE UTMOST AWESOMENESS!!! cheers cheers cheers

Company of heroes?

If it is like that it will be really cool.

Destroying buildings, making outposts, fighting like crazy.

Awesomeness!

I play CoH (or at least I will again when I get back home).

My account name is Praexes. Look me up, we might catch a game or two some time when my vacation is over.

It uses the CoH engine with a few changes so it should have most of the same stuff.

Hey Praexes, do you have Opposing Fronts or regular CoH ( just so you know, I have both)

I only have regular CoH: but I can still play online with the people who have Opposing Fronts. Relic made the patch non-independant: you don't need to upgrade just to play online on the main servers.

I play mostly Axis, and play mostly with a guy called Ciaphas in CoH. If you ever see me, or him, add us to your buddy list.

I don't think my laptop will be able to cope with the graphics on DOW 2. It's having a bad enough time with dark crusade! Crying or Very sad

With the release of Dawn of War 2 theres going to be a life size rhino in Nottingham I think. Hopefully there will be others scattered around but it sounds pretty cool since space marines are 7 foot I think

It is a British army FV432 tank they are using. It weighs 15.3 tons and is designed to carry twelve troops.

So I hear the first major hurdle they hit was the difference in roof line and rear arches FV432 and the Rhino, FV432 has a square back with a side opening rear door, whereas the Rhino features a top opening drawbridge style rear door and sharp angled rear arches.

To overcome this problem they cut and extended the FV432’s roofline using steel from other armoured vehicles as well as slicing and re-welding the rear corners to transform the vehicle shape.

Here are some pics.
