the Tau seems fascinating. might rekindle my interest for DoW again.

if future expansions are released with more races and covers all of the others, it would be so much more fun!

but i think they should introduce new gameplay types and bigger maps....

playing skirmish at hard level is quite overwhelming for me... haih.... I meant the vanilla dow.

U abandon the game.........

how could you..hehehe

just kidding...


well i think they will cover all the races except for the tyranids....relic has informed that the current game engine wouldnt do justice to the manner in which tyranids are...the nids would require a futher advanced game engine to really give the distinct alien feeling that ther bring.......

We would have to wait for DOW 2 if we want the tyranids to be added into the game.....



I believe they are including new gameplay styles....well mostly those gameplay styles have been adpated by other games as well but it would be cool to see how DOW functions in those type of gameplay..

Just hope that they would introduce a new form of gameplay that hasnt been used by other devs....that would be something..

i didnt abandon it, just didnt install it. lol!

when i mentioned new forms of gameplay, well, i was thinking it they could incorporate the current War40k tabletop gameply.

that might be interesting wouldn't it?

Tyranids.. bugs like monster or Zerg..

well, imo tyranids can be made using this game engine. Game engine
can be upgraded to support new function easily. the down side is required longer time. which relic is unwilling to waste so much $$ on
testing, debug whatever in this game.

Tyranid is a CC specialist, why do we need so many CC race
in this game but i hope to see tyranids in future of DOW, maybe DOW2?

The most important thing is the game must be balanced. Im tired of typing "OMG WTF IMBAL, ABUSER HAXOR" in almost every game.



Im not leaving DOW and go to AoE3 for fun, just because AoE3 is much more balanced and the developer team puts more efforts on balancing and debuging the game

If u cant stand DOW imba then move to DOW Pro.

Eh...found a mod for Necrons. Hahaha..is this old news??

http://www.eclipseofexistence.com/forums/portal.php

Where do you all hang out for this game, do u all gather on a day to play DOW?

hmmmm
no excuses, youre from new era. hahahaha

Well looks like Warhammer: Mark of Chaos may fulfill that part of your request.



I dont think the nids will be good if they were made to be in DOW. It would be better if relic put more thought and time to make sure the nids are represented well in the game with the creation of a new game engine. That will also increase the attractiveness of the other races as there will be new features that will be applied to all races.... Like for instance, they could make Orks with veteran war exp look much more darker green than the newly created Orks and in time those new created Orks will trun dark green as they fight and survive the battles they participate in. (that feauture is not in DOW yet)

Why do we need so many CC races.....at the moment the only CC race is Orks and Chaos (they arent even fully melee as their CSMs are good at range). The rest of the races are all shooty crazy......now with the addition of the Tau which will be the prima-don of the shooty style....you need a race thats breed for Close Combat massacre.


I understand that balance has been a major problem for DOW but give them credit for their effort. They do release patches that try to solve the problems. It aint easy to balance with so many races.

In the case of AOE3, most of the races play identically and are also the same units with different clothes. So balance is relatively easy. In DOW, each race has their standard rank and file but the majority of the units in each race are made for different style of combat. No matter how much i cry for justice for what happenned to the Orks, i style applaud them for a job well done in potraying the Orks as the way they truly are.....reckless war machines.....thats a big point Relic has scored with me.





I think this is quite old news. Sorry



well, if you got some boyz that wanna rug it out.....meet us at GlobalNet at SS15 Subang..







One more thing, you guys havent answered me about when we wanna wage war next........please let me know ahead of time so i can make the necessary preps.

Still no news about v1.5 patch???

awww.. proly Relic is selling the patch together with expansion pack..

cant wait for the new expansion pack to release



the difference between DoW developer team and AoE3 developer team in patching game are Relic like to do mega tweak to game at once where by AoE3 team debug and tweak balancing issue bit by bit and largely depend on community demand..

i dont understand why relic dont want to update us with new maps.. im bored with the old maps

Oh yeah since dark crusade is out why dont we change our thread title to Dark crusade/Winter assault

title of this thread has been changed!

actually was changed yesterday but there was a server rollback.

so... this thread will remain inactive till dark crusade comes out?

I am intrigued by the Nightbringer.. Coz.. After reading the novel, i would really like to know what happened to it..

OMG redeye, [OD] clan??!!!?!?!?

clan made in malaysia or foreign??

foreign..
since it got lonely playing all myself i tought why not.

btw, Clutch Gamers in SS2 has Winter Assault installed. but i forgot to check whether its the latest update or not.

also, Clutch Gamers positions itself as a cafe different from the rest, you just don't see that many DOTA players there and might find people interested to play WA there.

Well most likely they would release it with the expansion if the release dates are close to each other. There are 4 new maps given out by PCGAMER mag this month...was trying those maps....maybe you might wanna get those maps......they look good.


Definately not..........you cant silence this thread as it will always scream of mayhem.......hehehe





Actually the Necrons race was in stasis because there was not much life to harvest the last time since they almost wipe them all out.......and they decided that they will wait for life to bloom again before they begin their next harvest.....if im not mistaken a C`Tan can only be killed by another C`Tan.........so my guess would be in this game the Nightbringer will play out the same way as the BloodThirster..........it would be banished to its realm until summoned again........i cant wait to see the kill ani of the C`Tan......i wonder if they woudl include the other C`Tan, the deceiver...




You joined a clan.......so how is it like playing in a foreign clan




Where in SS2 is that.....is it next to ESC (behind burgerking)
Not much of DOTA playerss......thats very good intel......

Clutch Gamers is located near the Hong Leong bank in SS2, in front of the eating areas.
i.e. along the maybank, OR opposite Software Boutique, but behind that row of shops.

last i visited, there were 3 people playing Winter Assault there.

Well, well, well..........thats good news........maybe i'll go there to check it out sometime soon.

JohnnyCp looks like you got company in SS2
