I think this game is one of the best sequels to any game that i've played

User Rating: 9.5 | Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II PC
i'm a dawn of war 2 fan and when i bought this game i had srsly high expectations due to the fact that dawn of war 1 with it's expansions is one of my favourite games.

when i installed the game you had to register with windows live to play online, this really srsly frustrated me but i eventually got it done and went online to play multiplayer.

i played my first match, at first i didn't quite understand what was going on, the gameplay was so much different from the first game, it was like playing company of heroes really but... so different at the same time. it was a victory capture and hold match so i caught on what to do quickly. i was playing eldar, when you join a game you pick your commander, i picked the warp spider commander and it was very interesting to see commanders have wargear upgrades like in dark crusade ( the necron lord ). the unit cap was srsly limited, you couldn't really get alot out of your unit cap especially due to the fact that vehicles and infantry take the same cap, out of a hundred.... besides all that i think all the units in this game are unique, there is not a single unit that's really like another unit and i really like that there's so much potential stratedgy behind this game. there's not as many units as there were in the original dow1 BUT i really think that doesn't matter in this case. i think there will be up coming expansions that would add more units and maybe factions and that would srsly make the game even better. i think the upcoming patch is gonna change alot of things for the better because right now there are a few small things that are really... hmmm should be changed i guess

the visuals for this game... is like... orgasmic, when i originally played the game i had it on max settings basically it ran... HORRIBLE LOL but i found out later it was because of my soundcard being so.. suckage so i changed the sound settings and it never lagged again until i used orbital bombardment rofl. i really think they've done a good job on this game since unit models have so much detail and the visuals so pretty. sure i'm a fan boy but you could play this game and say the same tbh.

overall i think this game is really good even with it's bad sides.
