Oh.
Well, 9/10 I guess.
It's a great game.
A thing that DoW and DoW2 misses (at least from review) is an advanced painting tool, I hate how your chosen colours affect designated parts.
It would be better if we'd just get to choose 5 colours and then paint wherever we want with them.
Space Marines have a lot more painting options than the others in DoW2 also... like, "halved style" and stuff.

Talking about Soulstorm? I'd give it a 7. The graphics and tech are dated but it's still fun to play. If you liked Dark Crusade, you'll like Soulstorm.

I was thinking more of the total amount of fun with the entire series... but with Soulstorm...
The multiplayer experience is great, but Dark Crusade's single player is waaay better than Soulstorm's.
I loved how the Commanders spoke to each other in DC.
"Surrender to the Greater good Orc!"
"Ya dun now much 'bout Orcs do ya Grayskin?"
I never had those moments in Soul Storm... there were a few lines, but never any faction to faction chatting... it lacked story.

Hmm... that Tyranid swarm really doesn't look that much like "searching for cower" and "valueing every single soldier" lol.
Anyways what? How come it's already been reviewed? That's ridicolous if it's not even finished yet. When is it scheduled to be released?

Pretty slow multi-video, more slow explaining than action, could be interesting though....

Hmm... well, Pc Gamer often gets games earlier than others, and they won't care if it's not finished. If the game they get says "review it" then they will... but since the game got rated 90/100 I dare say that it's finished.
Heh, the Swedish Pc Gamer got Gothic 3 to review, but the copy had an extreme amount of bugs that made them review it like, 30/100 or something.
Later, when the game was released, most CTDs had been fixed... but it was the game developers' fault for sending a flawed game for review.
Actually, this can be a good move from Relic, good reviews is a good hype

Hmm... I'm hearing some curious things about the final build that don't sound that great. Allegedly, the game only ships with 5 skirmish maps and it almost feels pointless to upgrade certain abilities in the single campaign. For example, most people probably aren't going to upgrade the melee capabilities of a Devastator Squad. Also I've read that the campaign only has 10 or so maps.

Read on Relic forums??
I've also done....and I'm sad that it will only be 10 "real" SP maps, story-maps that is However, I doubt that I will be totally bored by the other maps as there is a number of different "bosses" and 2 "secret-bosses".
I don't actually care if the Melee-upg will be bought for ranged troops, I see no point in that, well that's me.
Note: Not in skirmish though, there it could be fun to try things out.
Also "Ruined" mentioned HERE that there will be 5 maps in the BETA, more in the final version... (Far down on the page.)

If anyone was thinking of getting the Gamestop or EBGames preorder bonuses, don't bother. They've stopped letting people preorder the game. Hell, it's not even showing up on their websites anymore.
I decided to just preorder it through Amazon. You don't get as many bonuses but at least you get something.
