Hi all,

Quite like dthis game, played 1 level each night as I got home, and tonight finished lvl 11....

And then got the cradits.. gah..

I was thinking at least it would be like Starcraft where you get to do all the races.. but no, thats it, game over..

Ok multiplayer is fun, if a little light on the tec tree, but just 11 missions before game over..

wonder if anyone has managed to create missions..?

Very crappy SP imo.

Here's that strat - sit back and build 5 termy squads and 4 land raiders then win.

RTS sp missions should never ever let you sit back or they become too damn easy and pretty dull.

War3 had great SP missions which flitted between the races. They clearly knew that they didn't need a real SP game cause all of the GW fans would be right there anyway.

Grr

Yep - just ONE decent hire through the length of the project would have made a hell of a difference to Single Player.

Most surprising too, as the Homeworld Campaign was excellent - and the Homeworld 2 campaign not too bad...

Good, im not the only one who feels royally ripped off by the shoddiness of the single player portion...

The Blood Ravens got boring quickly, the other sides are totally under-developed (despite being largely 1-dimensional anyway) and the plot was quite frankly, crap...

Relic clearly suck at their non-Homeworld games :(

I wouldn't go that far, I'm finding the multiplayer quite fun. It's just a shame that most online teams are a bit crap.

Yup, the Multiplay in Dawn of War is pretty damn good.

it gives them a chance to make more money on bringing out an ork campaign, eldar, etc...
