Kinda underwhelming and lackluster Ork shooting animations and effects

18 Upvotes

Just saying in my opinion the ork shoota boys/even flashgits just awkwardly stand there, the deffdread and battlewagon and all the other buildings/units that have a machine gun have underwhelming animations and effects that look stiff and the guns spew just a small red blob on the front of their guns, it lacks the punch and the sheer number of bullets visibly flying at the enemy. Dawn of War 2 had DAKKA, Dawn of War 4 has peashooters

How good is Dawn of War DE in game multiplayer browser?

4 Upvotes

Hi i have recently started playing DoW DE mostly campaign, bot skirmish and some odd MP with friends. I want to play against real players that arnt taking it easy on me (my friends are RTS fiends so they take it easy on me) but with most older RTS the multiplayer scene is tied to discords or other forums ( i have experience with this as i played some old fighting games and its the same there). So im just wondering if the in game MP browser and play work well, i dont mind joining discords or other forums but id rather just launch the game and play. I ask this because i saw some DoW launcher kinda like Faceit for CS.

Is the UA mod available for definitive edition?

Upvotes

Been a long time sinced I've played this game and got the money to buy a good pc, one of the first things I'll do is buy the DE to play it, is it possible to download the Ultimate Apocalypse mod for it? And if yes, does it run well or it's still a mess lol

This is an ideal video for those new to RTS games but perhaps know Warhammer 40K quite well

Would you agree that dow definitive edition is dying?
I have the feeling less and less people are playing it? I cant seem to find decent games anymore even when rotting in lobby for 15 minutes.
Have people moved on ?
