I think a 1v1 tournament would be better,as we cant get so many teams to participate.

something to chew on while you guys think about the questions i posted earlier.

mind you this video isnt actuall ingame engine fotage. However lets hope to see that in the future expansions all these toys will show up.

(some of the stuff thts in this video was implemented somewhat)
*
This video is depressing as that is what DoW2 should be.That video just showed the perfect combination of DoW1 and CoH.Not the current watered down game.

I really like the way Fire Prism move in the video.Just not as much sway as in the video as it's unplayable.

Even Dreadnaught has better animation and it doesnt have the current annoying stomp stomp stomp sound effects.SM feels really bad ass in the video.

SM should get the Landspeeder Strafing Run.It's cooler than orbital strike.

Ezy dont let them get to that point of spwning a seer concil lol. You have to hav 1 fex with thornback, 2 AG and maybe a vc(or seeder) team behind all that to fight them properly they are hell tough to kill n worse with the farseer suporting them...
*
Damn,my Nids 1v1 BO isnt good at all.

Barbed Slinger Fex is pretty good too.Free Spore Mines which instant kill any platform.

Yeap,thats the fun of playing Nids.

I should change race,IMO. hmm.gif

Play Nids in 3v3.Still play Nids in 1v1.

Probably we'll never see anything like this,forever.

DoW2 would be much better if they have all those things.

I do agree some are just retarded.

from what i see in the video it is cool and if it were to be like that in retail we wont be able to play it cause of the high system requirement..  and not to mention the amount of work to be put into balancing the whole game..
*
Im not saying that SM should kill dozens of Guardians in seconds,but it would be awesome for SP campaign.

Im just saying things like how Eldar Fire Prism move in the video,vehicular damage,the fluid animations,the physics,some of the sounds should be in the final game.

CoH has done almost all the things in the video,to a certain extent,why not DoW2.

What we have in Dow2 is toned down vehicular damage where we dont have things like main gun damage,immobilized,damaged engines.Or things like lousy physics in Dow2,while CoH's physics enable tanks to have a few pieces of derby flying after they die and leave a tank wreck there,or a more natural way of tank traps breaking apart,rather than the current things turn into dust after a vehicle move through it.DoW2's animation and sounds wasnt as good as CoH's one.The sync kills arent as good as Dow1.

The game is so lacking in terms of features or technology,compare to it's older brother,CoH or DoW.

I really doubt that relic gonna add all these missing features in the coming expansion.Even patching a pop cap bug took them these long to fix it.

Relic is always like that.They have something that have so much potential to become something that will blow you away,but they never fully unleash that potential.It is sad,actually.

I be getting it..

Cheese If you think Relic is doing a good job with COH then i urge that you atleast get Tales Of Valour to reward Relic that COH is a game winner and not DOW2..
*
Relic did a good job with CoH,but after seeing their support and ToV's quality in some videos.Im reluctant to get it.

I bought DoW2 because i thought they will improve it in the final release.It's still underwhelming to me till now. We'll see in coming months.

QUOTE(DarkFyre @ Apr 6 2009, 06:22 PM)
well yea its kinda sad that the quality isnt up too par but im still happy with the game
even though i suck at it big time lol
i think its safe to say that all of us that stuck around are big fans of the franchise and im still pondering about taking up TT in the near future hmm
*
Yes,we are kinda stuck with it now.I like Warhammer 40k Universe more than anything else.

Damn.

are u staying at Aus?

which ISP is the best for gaming? How's ur latency in public/ranked games for DOW2? any good? Im going to melb soon..  icon_rolleyes.gif
*
I think iinet is pretty good.The speed is quite consistent.

Optus also not bad,but avoid TPG at all cost.It sucks a lot for online gaming as the line is not stable.I got 2 dc on my stats because of TPG.

My latency is from 50-500.50 is for local aussie and games are damn smooth.500 are probably for Europeons but the game is still smooth.

If TPG is not acting funny,i usually get 300 to non-australians.It will be a smooth game for me.

Finally,TS 26 for 3v3. rclxm9.gif

I switch from Eldar to the Ravener alpha, and everytime I win, I always get screwed. Things like: I will own you if you are not using nids fu*ktard, or go roll a new race u abusive f*cker, etc etc.

Do you get the same thing nid players?

Btw, Ravener alpha is well of somewhat easier to use than eldar, but only if you play aggresively, if you keep hiding in your base the other guy will win anyways. Btw, i still lose to people with higher TS because of unit preservation but oh wells, guess I have to focus more on keeping my troops alive while capping.
*
No,it never happen to me.

Im Nids Ravenor Alpha player too.

I got owned most of the time,though.

I usually play on 7-8 Malaysian time.

Dont think anyone's playing on that time.

You know what im thinking now.I just hope Relic dont break anything else when they are fixing the current problems.

QUOTE(heaven @ Apr 10 2009, 01:13 PM)
The map looks more like a combination of city and jungle tiles.
*
Yeah,i do admit it looks good,but i would prefer to have a City or Dessert tile set than a Jungle map.

It seems to be a lot of space to flank,IMO.

We have like 3 Jungle maps now,while we only have 2 Dessert and City.

The East side is imba as they can camp their Plasma Devs or D Cannon on the other side of the river.
