The first data-disk of dow2 is almost here, this is a thing all the dow 2 fans already well know..
Those who won’t buy the expansion will get a new unit, a big patch and some maps.
Those who will buy the expansion will get:
-Chaos Army
-A new (useless?) single player campaign
At the actual price (30 euro) i am not going to buy this, it s just not enough for me to justify the buying, i am not a big fan of Chaos Marines, plus is still a 3 vs 3 with just the adiction of f4all mode.
In addiction i found the single player campaign (dow 2) terribly boring.
I don t wanna bash THQ or Relic at all, in fact i am glad they make wh40k rts game, but to me Dow 2 is bad designed since the beginning.. so i hope they will bypass Company of Heroes 2 and will start to work on Dow 3 as soon as possible 😆
As (probably) all dawn of war 2 owners knows, today should be released via steam the free download content Last Stand. Happy gaming. 😉
The Last Stand is a cooperative survival mode that gives gamers control of an individual hero unit and drops a small multiplayer team into a battle with impossible odds. Players can choose between a Space Marine Captain, Eldar Farseer or Ork Mekboy and will team up with two other squad-mates in an attempt to hold out as long as possible against wave after wave of relentless attackers.
Hero units level up and are fully customizable as new armor and weapons become available from game to game. Every new unlock gives your hero unique abilities or passive skill traits exclusive to The Last Stand. Working together to devise innovative strategies is the key to success in this brand-new battle mode.
Each wave in The Last Stand is significantly more difficult and deadlier than the previous wave. The Last Stand is addictive, fast-paced, and full of relentless action. Play for survival or play for high score, both will earn you a place on leaderboards for ultimate bragging rights. The Last Stand is the third pillar to campaign and PvP game modes in Dawn of War II. It’s an online battleground for players of any skill level.
Xenogeddon is a free open-source FPS where you walk around an abandoned ship avoid the enemies that might or might not lay in wait. Your mission is to activate the self-destruct and then escape. Please note that at the moment it is in beta.
Programmed by Stephen Smith (stephen.carlylesmith AT googlemail.com). It’s loosely based on Space Hulk by Games Workshop.
I think most of you know that a Wh40k mmo is in development, i think there will be years before something will be shown.. What i was curious about, was What type of game will they do? A fps with guildwars type of technology? A wow type game? Or maybe a Tabula Rasa type game? really curious..
