Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II - Chaos Rising Dev Diary with Daniel Kading

This looks good anyone know what the Warhammer 40000 books ar like

laofuzi300 Clearly, you have no idea what a lasgun is. You can get the same effect of a lasgun with a flash light. Use enough of them and you might blind someone for a bit.

Right with you there. They need to do the guard and Tau justice.

Where are my firewarriors!? I want my Tau damn you!!! D:

They need to add Imperial Guard in this game. Please, Please,Please make them stronger this time! Even just make their lasgun stronger is better.

right on Exia2004 heh T'va personally I want more gameplay like from the first series of games like Dark crusade.

ill buy the game when they will add Tau

I just got done with Dawn of War 2 and loved it. I can't wait for this one to come out!!!

hell yeah.. it better not get delayed or sumbody's house will get boom... just kidding.. ^^ love u..

WoW this company is making just better and better games :D I didn't even play DoW 2 yet but soon... btw could any 1 tell me what kind of pc states i need for playing this game perfectly and with nothing that may disturb the gameplay? Please PM me. Tnx.!

I just want new units for the existing factions in multiplayer. :D

Looks like imperial guard make an appearance. Yayz

will they add IG into the game as a playable race? :D

So that is definitely the same voice actor who played Eliphas in DoW's expansion. Very much excited to see how this plays out. And I don't think I ever realized what the Chaos worlds would look like. I mean, there's not a lot of videos at least. Plenty of pictures but to see chaos actually rip a world apart is really awesome to see come to life.

I hope that what I saw at 4:27 of the clip when the Chaos Predator hits the wall is true. That they've adjusted the phisics to be more like in Company of Heroes, wich where more realistic than DOW2 where the walls would run away when the tanks tried to hit them :)). Awesome! Cannot wait! A must have, must play!!!

nice to see they chose to include the annihilator this time, and as an idealist I realy hope that there is a chance for the chaos dreadnought to go insane that would be more codex friendly and kind of nice to see it go haywire amongst it's own. And now I'm going to whine some more, a librarian casting spells? A librarian maby being able to use more then one psychic element? Relic have defiled 40k before and this is a somewhat small thing, and they did include the juggernought so I'm gonna let it slide.... for now.

its good that they added space hulk to the game + chaos daemons what more could you want?

Yes, gnenestealer, I've been waiting for that. Although I'm now more prefering the Chaos faction. They finally got the Choas Dreadnaughts and hopefully Possessed Squad or Chaos Terminator as well. :)

doesn't seem as massive as the original game

you can be evil....BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!!

Even by way of his "normal" mutations bestowed by his chosen Chaos power, the chaos lord would be superior. Facing off against Abaddon in the single might be keeping in line with the bosses from the original campaign. Seriously, an Elder God can get away with 250k hp, but an Ork warlord? As a muliplayer Lord tho, he might be a bit too much. Unless that is through some intricatly convoluted premise, the Blood Raven's lord is replaced with a Primarch...

did I see.... 7 squads on that war gear screen.... sweet... this looks awesome, I enjoyed dw2 but was a bit miffed at it's many limitations... this looks like it might solve most of them :P

Dayam does this x-pack look sweet. I really like the new corruption system, lol my co-op buddy and I will have to argue over what choices to make.

@008Zulu probibly be generic, if they where to give Chaos a hero like abaddon then it wouldnt really be fair on the other races...unless they are going to revamp all the heros?

Sick!

killer!!!

Here I was hoping and knowing we couldn't play as Chaos in single player, with this new corruption element, seems like we will get to. Since Chaos is in MP, d'ya reckon their main Hero unit will be a generic or someone like Abaddon?

Space Hulk!!! Enough said.

Anyone else longing for a bigger pop cap? That was what made the first dow games so epic, the MASSIVE battles. Who doesn't remember playing winter assault and defending that breach in the wall as the imperial guard and being like "OHH S**T!, thats a lot of orks"

How about a second damocles crusade? It'd be nice to witness the barbarism of the Imperium's finest from the perspective of humans serving the greater good, instead of all these "daemons" and similar silliness getting whole expansions to themselves.

Blood For The Blood God. Can't wait to see this in March. Seems like that added a hell of a lot more to the leveling up. Esp with the Corruption system.

AND IT'S A GOOD PAIN!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAGHHHH!!!! FOR THE CHAOS GODS!!!! I FEEEL THE WARP OVERTAKING ME!!!!

that terminator lord looked badass.

I'm waiting for a warhammer 40k movie based on the Horus Heresy. Dear god is that an amazing series of books.

I JUST LOVE QHAOS ohHHHHAHAHAHA

DAMN!!! Time I invest in DOW!! never thought it would turn out sooo awsome!!

Defiantly AkaRai, We need other Races also..... A Must play RTS....

Yeap, SP rules, but on MP there are some things that need to be done.

All fine and dandy for the single player, but there still tons of balancing that needs to finished with the first one for multiplayer, hopefully they address these issues with the expansion. Like to add on what AkaRai stated. I couldn't agree more, only having one race be added is kind of lack luster...I was expecting at least the Imperial Guard to pop back up again, but sadly it doesn't look like it. So far, if the single player pans out just like the recent, it's going to be epic, and I'm incredibly curious on how the corruption system is going to work. I'm also happy at least from what I've heard that all your previous saved single player campaign stuff will save and go over, which is awesome.

Now all we need are the Tau. And the Necrons. And the Dark Eldar. And the Sisters of Battle. And the Imperial Guard. And the... Squats?

What I like is Relic stays commit ed to their games and release them on a good schedule unlike Blizzard who was overtaken by World of Warcraft.

don of war 2 looks like something i can get in to

thq just perfected its rts formula for DoW II

Looks amazing I wanna get it :)

they should make one for 360 that would be awsome

Relic is easily my favorite game developer right now. They listen to the fans, and fix the problems they had with their early games. People said DOW II`s campaign was to repetative, and they inject variety into the level design and objectives. I will be buying this for sure.

Looks promising but I'd rather have an Everquest 3 or a EQOA Fronts port to the PS3. ;-)

I was wondering what happened to Chaos in DoW2, now all factions from DoW are back together.

@alcari Always lacking intelligence.. too bad. Still looking at the darker side of things... too bad. Anyway, this is going to be intense now that the Chaos Marines are in the game.
