From beta testers at Relic News or Gamereplays,most of them didnt really like it.Battles are too fast.Teching non existant.Not enough boom compare to CoH.Also very very good graphics.

I dont think there is any proper site to dl the SS patch.Just get from filefront or anywhere you can find.
It's only 2 patches by the way. |

Part 2. Just watch if you dont have the beta.Take it as a pinch of salt until you play it. |

I watch a few more videos over at IGN.
DoW2 feels very unfinished.When tanks go through walls,that section of walls just disappear,as oppose to CoH's one where you see chunks of the wall rolling on the floor. Besides,no tank hunks after death kinda disappoint me.It was another good feature in CoH.

QUOTE(evofantasy @ Jan 22 2009, 08:44 PM) the game is really intense in the starting moments trying to gain ground... Dunno la.Probably that guy is too good.The opponents are kinda new to the game.losing ur hero in such moment looks bad from all the video i've been seeing... i haven see any vids who made a comeback... The second video's ASM comes too late.If not,he might win or we'll get a nice battle. QUOTE(TomatomanzSeedlezz @ Jan 22 2009, 09:03 PM) Dam kesian the person he playing against.. lol Probably will be put back into the game.Hopefully those issues just for Beta nia.. the final version hopefully won't be like that, as COH its basically the most detailed RTS ever!.. heh Cheers It's just a beta anyway.Things should be missing or incomplete. Added on January 22, 2009, 9:12 pm QUOTE(evofantasy @ Jan 22 2009, 09:10 PM) the game has gone gold if i There will be a Day 1 Patch to fix some stuff cause people will find some of the balance issues.m nt mistaken rite... so i think u can only wait for the patch to fix thing...

QUOTE(suki @ Jan 22 2009, 10:13 PM) I think these things were toned down for performance reasons, since they're using 3v3 as the main match type... so they're there to stay. Also one of the reason why there's a lack of performance issue... It's not ok for me as i like the tank wrecks in CoH.You could use it as cover.I for one was pretty okay with the vehicle debris not leaving behind (from the reports at the playtest in London), but after watching some videos (and used to CoH), i'm having second thoughts bout it. Just feels weird seeing them *pop* away (like Starcraft II These Part 1 and 2 videos are the best, fullscreen HD! >> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKmkAo14Y5g >> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtKAA-Oc54c Generally,it feels more realistic for me.Tanks shouldnt just die and go *poof.

Im still feeling kinda disappointed towards DoW2.
From what i see,it has even less depth compare to even already dumb down game like RA3.Lots of flashy explosion but the battles feels very small.Feels a lot like CoH.Very hectic,and sneaky like. No doubt the graphics is good.Animation is decent,only. This post has been edited by Cheesenium: Jan 23 2009, 08:49 PM |

So,it's still a damn good game?DOW 2 seems easy to learn but hard to master. Yes the numbers of unit decreased and most of them you can only choose one upgarde option over another.... but in retro sense it also mean that every little small thing u can and will affect the game result. Kinda like advance interactive chess. If you think you were owned bad in DOW wait till you try VS the elite RTS players in DOW2, IMO way worse method to die. On the flip side if the final release is anything like the beta, your HQ is super tough so even under siege you can last a loooong time. I do notice flanking becomes very important now.Much more than CoH because of the slower retreat system.Cant spam retreat buttons now.One wrong move,all gone like one of the videos i posted. It's more fluffy in it's way as SM has less man now.Unlike DoW1 where you get tonnes of them and get killed by Guardsman easily. They will release a Zero Day Patch to nerf some of the imbas.And new maps after a week or 2. QUOTE(trancesition @ Jan 24 2009, 01:10 AM) OK CONFIRM. Ok,thanks.DoW 2 Pre-Order Malaysia starts Feb 2 and will last until Feb 15. RM 169 and comes with free shirt and chance to win 3D marine figure. www.replay.my |

No,just go to the main page.Press on the Beta Keys link and wait.You'll get it easily.
Im thinking of giving up now. The fastest speed it can get it 15kbps.I dont think i'll get to play the beta at all. Damn you,shitty internet connection. |

I think those are DoW:SS replays.Not DoW2.
Anyway,one question,what happens if i disconnect half way while downloading from Steam? Does it resume? |
