Dawn of war 2 video thread

[squidy]

I made this thread to stop the amount of video threads, but still allow the posting of videos. Post all Dawn of War 2 videos here to reduce clutter. I know I'm not an admin, but I don't want this video to be posted 5 million times. So here is the reason of this thread:

TYRANIDS IN DoW 2! ;D Unfortunately, they are AI.

[babycatachandevil]

damn i can't here it my speakers are broken, but does he say that they are going to be AI?

The part about Tyranids is: "In the single player campaign you play as Space Marines and you must protect a system from an invasion (tyranids)." He also sates he can't tell what the invasion is. So tyranids are in DoW 2, but we can't play as them.

Tyranids aren't mentioned at all.

No, you play as an elite strike force. You can play as Space Marines but you can choose which race you want to play with.
And that invasion can be Chaos invasion. You're speculating.

...Unfortunately, they are AI.
...but we can't play as them.

Nobody said that. Again, you're speculating.

And again, I will say it. The game is not all about the campaign. Look at Company of Heroes. Look at the Original Dawn of War. In those two, you could only play the campaign as Americans and Space Marines respectively, but in both games the other factions were available in Skirmish. There IS going to be skirmish in this game too, and I am very sure that they will include all the races in Skirmish^^

But you also played as Imp. guard in the campaign, and they weren't in skirmish.

[squidy]

OK, sorry for speculating. I thought it was obvious, but then again, I have an esophagus going through my brain (think squid). ;D

[babycatachandevil]

Its fine. What if (and this is speculation) they make DoW 2 expansions just to anger all of us?

[devilgaunt]

Or think Stargate SGI and you are a Goa'uld....

I didn't hear anything about Tyranids. That should have been a question the host should have asked, are tyranids going to be in the game! The did say to refer back to the trailer to get an idea of what the invaders will be.

[squidy]

Well as I've said in previous posts, they wouldn't build the suspense for Chaos.

Edit: Grr! There I go speculating again!

[Haraio [MALAL]]

Enigma: The Guard in DoW were not a faction, just a cameo that you controlled at certain times. Think about it; they had no bases, no variety in units like the 'real' factions^^

[Helonion]

FFS! Chaos has been in all the games since DOW, to have them cause that cloud will be greedy to Tyranids. It's obvious it's Nids because of it was actually Chaos people would be going " You *#(&@#$%&^#$@#)(@%*" That would kill profit, except for the fanatic selfish Chaos people who want Chaos to be the cause of every game.

[babycatachandevil]

of course chaos are wimps hiding behind they're deamons (i no they are a new army now) and otherwise they're are just space marines only red, with horns

[Enigma]

I personally think that tyranids deserved to be in it more than the witch hunters or dark eldar, who no one ever plays anyway.

[romorini]

I think that the fact those two armies showed up in Dawn of War is a sign that they're going to be supported by GW. Either could just as easily be dropped entirely from the catalogue.
