What do you want to see from DoW III

Postby egewithin » Sat 20 Jun, 2015 2:39 pm

If we ignore the '' is it going to ever happen? '' or ''Does SEGA has plans for 40K? '' talking, I open this topic for you to write down what do you want to see from DoW III. Maybe someone from SEGA is smart egounh to read this topic and we may gain something? :P

Just hope it will be made by experienced developers unlike CoH2. Also, hope it wont be full of DLC bs that will provide some advantage to players who bought it like in CoH2. Hope it will have same awesome music and voices like DoW2.

I wish it would exist someday. I think that's hopeful enough.

I rather not have it exist if it has terrible balance and base building.

If it's gonna have base building like in coh/2 (4-5 structures + HQ) it's fine

I think DOW III should be bold and take a completely different direction to its predecessors. Instead of having your standard RTS base like DOW I or absolutely no base building in DOW II, DOW III should make base building the main component of the game.

You'll build a hive city by T3.

In fact, lets just call it Sim Hive City.

I want to see at least half of all the pr0s lost in the warp come back and start a real primadonna pr0scene again. It'll be like a class reunion! And we can have fun playing 1s again. :D

I'd like them to start from DOW2, but then widen the scope a bit, to COH-like engagement sizes. More boots on the ground, slightly more buildings, and also an assault-maps like co-op mode

I'd also like a little bit more base building. In this case, probably just a building for each Tier instead of just buying some magical "tier 2" item.

Like CoH 2 does it. It's a decent formula actually.

This has become the "waiting for patch" thread with all you folks. I know you're just here because, like me, you're slamming refresh on your keyboard for the forum link.

Anyway, I kinda hope the single player for Dow3 would be much less about SM vs CSM and more about the less well known factions like Dark Eldar or heck, even Sisters of Battle. Something different.

Kind of like what Winter Assault did, where the IG was the main focus with just a sprinkling of Ultrasmurfs.

I would really want the Truesight model from CoH2.
Whatever you think about it, that was probably the best new addition.

Everytime I play DoW2, I think: Oh yeah, lets run my Banshees (or other flanking force) around, he won't see me coming.
... oh yeah right, units have a magical sightcircle... )=

Besides that, I would be happy even if not that much changed from DoW2. I don't need basebuilding, or masivelly more units. I don't want DoW3 to be just another Warhammer40k game (even if that would also be sweet), I actually like the CoH/DoW mechanics with cover and shooting and all that stuff.

Hmm, let me think about it, what would I really want... random assertion of big and small things:
-A Harelquin subcommander or "call in unit" would be nice.
-An expanded Laststand mode. (Even if you don't like it (and I do :D), many people love it). On that topic, better modsupport. (I would love if -someone made a laststand mod like that).
-more cosmetic customisation for units. What we have is cool already, but I would like to lets say choose from 3 different spears for my Bansheeexarch. Also a good point for DLC. Or being able to "paint" your models really detailed, like: I want that color for the eyes, that one for this part of the shoulder pad, this has a pattern, a decal at the butt. It would make it harder to differentiate the armys in play, but I have faith :D Maybe you can make it so everyone gets displayed with the lame colors for yourself.
-More factions, but who doesn't want that.

What about essentially making a tabletop simulator that moves for Dow3?

That way, instead of spending $1000+ on getting an army to just try the game out with, I can just do it from the comfort of my rig :P

3 races to start off with: SM, Orks and Chaos

New units are $5 DLC
All other races are $15 DLC

So someone who has money to pay for games can beat another one who doesn't likes to pay for games? And if you say '' Races will be balanced '' I suggest you to remember DoW and DoW2.

the same gameplay ( not the balance flaws or engine limitations, hope they get a competent team this time) from DOW 2 with a basic base build / economy manegement as Soulstorm / CoH 2 .

More Factions would be welcome despite I would really hate to see tyranids absente / DLC only.

... and if the emperor provides, Bolter babes and Evil BDSM Space Elves babes would be awesome to get. :p

Well frankly when a squad of troops moves in real life they're all looking in different directions, especially when not engaged. That's kinda the point.

Oh yeah sure, I am totally fine with the circle, I don't want vision cones.
What I mean is that they can see over walls.^^

Isn't there a 40K mod for Tabletop Simulator already? I could swear I saw it somewhere.

Regardless, there is VASSAL Engine that does this 100% anyway: http://vassal40k.tripod.com/

Limited base building.

Remove Last Stand.

add in true sight for sure (good call lichtbringer)

Add in reverse to vehicles.

Keep the battle idea to squads instead of a bajillion troops

I am also in favor of squad based. It just works better with the mechanics. If we want more units, just get the Totalwar guys to make a 40k one.

How people want CA to do a 40k game is beyond me. It's like no one ever played a single fucking total war game in their life.

Truesight doesn't work like that you doughnut, it works by objects taller than models blocking sight, so runnign behing walls gives you full vision in DOW II unlike CoH 2.
