Dawn of War 2

Post by Otherside »

Who has it ??

So far im enjoying it. Only played online but i heard the campaign is really good.

if you like real time tactics its very good from what ive seen

positioning etc matters

also it has hero units if thats your thing which varies it alot :p

Always fun to play Lictor alpha launching jump attacks then flesh hooking then jumping out :P

also looks very nice and is nothing like dawn of war 1

yeh im waiting for bug to be fixed before i played ranked games

The bug has been fixed already but it takes 2 weeks verification for Games for windows live to patch online servers gg... epic fail microsoft patch been ready for a week so now its just a waiting game.


you can actually avoid the bug aslong as u dont spam click reinforce your units and do it one at a time (which hardly any1 does as every1 frantically kicks resupply button) because it allows you to click to add 1 more unit than allowed and it cancels it cos of the squad cap but still adds it to supply limit t.t if u click one at a time and dont overclick it dusnt happen,
