Nice to see the Nids are finally getting their time in the sun. I think they didn't do them in the first DoW because they felt with the program they had it wouldn't do them justice.

i know allot of mates of mine who will be loving this, and it will probably be the main reason to buy the game

I think DOW 2 is going to blow its predecessor out of the water!!!
I am super excited to play it!!! The graphics on those screen shots are out of this world.

i know im the inquis but wwwwwaaaaahhhooooooooooo cant wait

Is there any information on what type of campaign it will be? I hope its like dark crusade except with actual missions that can be played on each territory like the original. Go nid's!

The graphics look very similar to Company of Heroes, which is a great thing: this means the game will be gorgeous, yet still approachable for those of us without god-like PCs.

sweet another horrible army to join me on my quest of destruction mwahahahahaha

I think it uses the Company of Heroes engine, and all the squadie stuff where your guys will run for cover automatically, regarding the campaign I think it uses Dark Crusade style stuff, heres a link to gamespot, for more info about it...

There's also a video there, on the same page where you can see the tyranids kicking marine ass!

Holy Crap!!!
That was an awesome video!!!!!
As if I wasn't excited enough about this game already!!!!!!
I think that Tyranid fans will agree that it will been worth the wait.

The assualt marines are looking much more powerful as they actually make an impact when they land and it looks like they jump for themselves rather than the tap jump and select area.

Probably a bit like the Kroot ability in DOW I, but perhaps a faster regenerate time, or maybe even each time you really charge in, so it wouldn't work for "Pilling in" The Death Leaper Lictor appears to have a similar ability (see vid)

Nids are going to be awesome!!! And wonder what their super unit is going to be because I don't think a carnifix could take on a land raider

Brothers,

You should venture over to this link if you have time. There are some relatively new screen shots. You can even see Terminators fighting the 'nids.

...and the anticipation builds. Anybody know the projected release date on this puppy?

I don't know the official date. But my educated guess would be Christmass

Gamespot says Q2 (just before summertime) 2009, in the US, so about the same time or a wee bit later for europe maybe.

I live in the US... if anyone is desperate for DoW a week or two early (lol) I can pick up a few copies and post them.

Just pay me back once you get them.

Head over to BOLS brothers, and check out some new DOW II video footage, it is about half way down the page

Oooooh, those are angry marines indeed.

Dow 2 looks cool, too bad my computer sucks.
