It gets pretty fun when you actualy get better at multi, and finding an actual worthy opponent is an accomplishment as well

The campaign is great. And base-building would not fit at all into the campaign. You're supposed to be a handful of mankinds best, against hundreds of xenos. You're supposed to have the feeling of being outmanned.
PvP though, base-building could definately work, as long as it doesn't take too long to build one.

PVP was what I was thinking.
One thing though, the Coop idea is fantastic. . . it just stinks to hell that the only person that gets any exp from it is the host.
That needs to swing both ways I think.

So how does coop work? Each person controls two squads?

Well, nice, two good players could mean much better results, because managing 4 squads is tough at times, especially at missions where cover is of utmost importance.

Made a small guide how to run the game properly, hopefully will save some the trouble of having to go through the thread and cs.rin.ru. Link in sig.

In coop, does each player get to manage their own squads? Like if I have FC and Tarkus, my friend has Avitus and Cyrus, does he get to equip them with wargear, and assign attribute points and such? Or is it all handled by the host?

Company of Heroes has the best mix of unit control and base building ever, DOW2 dosn't even come close, and the first half dozen single player campaigns are just dull, really noobie and dull.
I don't know maybe I'm getting a bit jaded... now COH with DOW2 units and you would be cooking on gas.

I was using the beta for this game. I uninstalled Steam and the beta. I am going to install this. IF says in the nfo file to create steam offline account, if I do that does it contact steam at all??.. Just wondering, I dont want them seeing im running a cracked game. I have no interest in playing this on there servers, if I play online it will be with friends through Himachi. I just want to make sure they dont see im playing a cracked game, if anyone could answer this would be greatly appreciated,,, thanks guys!

It's called an offline account for a reason.

So if I run Vitality I understand it's 1.0 instead of 1.1 but from what I can tell it's just like 3 mp maps and a few balancing issues,, is that about the only diff?

I don't think you can even complete the game without a 0day patch and a hotfix.

If you'd listen to the interviews as to why they got rid of base building, I can see what the thinking was behind it. i am enjoying the game myself. I am glad someone had balls enough to try something new in some way and ihope the game doesn't flop. i want to see expansions and stuff for it. |
That's fine. But don't call it a sequel when its nothing like the original. The original wasn't a perfect translation of the actual 40K mechanics, but it was far closer than this.
4 person squads? Yet you can reinforce?
squads that can't have sergeants?
only a couple vehicles? far less options on the dreadnoughts?
I would have expected improvements not scaling back.
Still no landspeeders or bikes?
no chaplain or librarian?
the unit stuff is completely butchered.
They could have called this Warhammer 40k:Squad tactics, or something else.

couldn't agree more, just feels crippled, I was expecting so much more. It dosn't offer much more than Squad Command on the PSP at least there was a more strategic approach with that game. Anyone who's played it through will know exactly what I mean.
Sorry I really feel relic have dropped the ball with this one. Really should of stuck with pushing Company of Heroes style gameplay.

The only bright side of this game for me is that I hope Relic will make Company of Heroes 2 with this new engine. DOW 2 sucks for single player.

Yes, you should be able to. But why bang the head against the wall and not patch?

man this game (SP part of it anyways) is dull and boring. Don't get me wrong, unit wise and stuff its fine, i guess, but playing the same little map over and over and over ... again ... wtf ? couldn't they at least have made the effort to mix it up a bit more ? There are like 2-3 maps top per planet, and (at least as far as i've seen) you can have dozens over dozens of missions on each (albeit side missions i guess, but still) and its not even fun anymore ... really not.
gonna try some of the other games out i guess :/

Well, don't know what you mean by "same map," because every mission I've played has had a different layout. If you mean the same "look" because it is using the same assets, then sure, but that is understandable, given they take place on nearby locations.

You often must revisit same locations (maps that is), other than that there is about 15 maps overall for single, and about 60 missions, so do the math.
