This game is incredible. I hope the fourth installment is similar... because we don't talk about the third one.
bought game hated game immeditly. while later tried again and low and behold i felt something. so completed another mission and started enjoying it. still wishing it was like first one rts. but beggers cant be......well now adays they are
eu achando que seria uma grande expansão pro primeiro jogo que é o melhor disparado, fiquei decepcionado pq vai pra uma linha bem diferente do primeiro, o jogo um apesar de também ter mecanicas de guerrilha é mais focado em construção de bases e em exercitos mais fortes numerosos e equipados, o segundo jogo focou muito mais apenas na mecanica de guerrilha e deixou a maior parte da base da essencia do primeiro como secundario. o jogo é bom, para quem gosta.
Shame! Was just starting to have fun on the campaign when I came up against a game breaking bug - the interface on the squad deployment screen doesn't work on wide screen monitors! All I wanted to do was select my jumpy boys for the Eldar mission. WAAAAGGGH!
horribly broken on newer pcs, the stuff ive tried as workarounds for it to still not work is ridiculous, would love to see this updated or a version like DoW enhanced.
Unplayable on modern systems, requiring downgrading drivers, soursing dll files from sites, and other circus tricks. How is anniversary edition has so many problems, despite original working perfectly 4 years prior is a mystery. Sega was right.
Initially sorta fun 40k squad-based RTS. By the end the balance, even on normal difficulty, completely flys out of the window. Massively inflated health pools and one shot boss fights. I'm talking a standard orc squad having around 10x the health of my tankiest troops in terminator armor. And inexplicably the same chaff units doing more damage the later in the game. Levelling up doesn't make you more powerful, it means you barely keep up. Pathfinding is all screwed up too. Try and melee vehicles and your troops spend genuinely over half the time moving out of the way of the vehicle politely while it shoots at them. It's not company of heroes. Its just 40k slapped on a buggy engine not intended for 40k. It has very little merit as a game, if it weren't for the expensive IP slapped on it. If just seeing space marines and bullets do it for you, maybe get it on deep discount and play on Easy. But it's not a game that handles challenge well.
Even after all these years the game still suffers from graphic issues. No matter what I do I cannot play the game on medium, high or ultra settings at all. Despite having more than the required specs to run the game. The game refuses to change graphics from low to medium, high, or ultra. It is forever stuck on low settings no matter what I do.
a good game but is not dawn of war..is too small scale and restricting.
Really fun and engaging. The storyline is good and being able to unlock new charcters and upgrade them makes it even funner
