Dow2b: Vaul (Eldar) vs LeRagpicker (Space Marines) p1/2

[Rincewindlolzor]

I personally prefer DOW2 to DOW1. Iv been playing DOW1 since day 1 :P

[ghostandsummer]

Space Marines is the way to go not Eldar!

[CaptainPengu]

Nope.

[ghostandsummer]

yep.

[Icejimmy1]

dawn war 2 is diffrenet from dawn war

[SanctifiedBolter]

You have some unhealthy obsession witht eldar, Vaul ;)

Really like your videos though- I can't play this bloody game on my laptop so I'll just have to watch these instead of experiencing the real thing :(

Oh well.

[khornesfury]

should have used ur wraithlord in melee against those tactical marines

[dragonhunter1011]

When does this come out of beta again? o.0

[xBLACKxEYEx]

stupid question but has any1 downloaded the beta and not have it work but still bought full game and that work?

[Mathenaut]

Nice commentary. 'm enjoying it greatly.

Though, it is unfortunate that the gameplay seems to be so straightforward and shallow.

[ortraptor1234]

how do you save the replays?

[tidomann]

How expensive are these games in New zealand? just for comparison purposes

[Fudgeblood]

Here in Aus its 90/100 Dollars, 110 for collectors. Pretty much same price in US too.

[lololigy]

thats alot in teh store it costs 40 dollars

[Fudgeblood]

40Us or 40AU?

[Darkinsigniosis]

40 US.

It costs around £20 overe here in Britain.

[transtlantic]

well i suppose u can go play shooters then, no need of brain use for you :D

[SpraxIAKS]

Is too brain use in shooters if you know how to play. : )

[transtlantic]

lol, if you say so. (i do like some shooters btw - but the huge majority of them are brain use free :P) hehe

[SpraxIAKS]

Well. I atleast use my brain while playing them. :)

[alzger]

I gotta say that his commentary compared to his first video is a lot better. That may be just because it's a replay, but I think he actually enjoyed it more. Please keep making the videos because they are quite enjoyable.

[CreativeRehash]

Your comments on depth and strategy still fail. There is far more tactical depth in a game like DoW 2 and conversely Company of Heroes than DoW classic. Sorry.

[Adamma73]

Love the commentary!

08:50 "Wraithlord's going down!!" awesome =)

[CamaradajoseII]

Every thing looks great, but the way that the plataforms go up every time de marines land on them looks pretty stupid...

[nonameCN326]

great commentaries~~!!

[third6891]

they fixed the zoom btw.. if you didnt notice :)

[porcu12345]

I really like the commentaries.

[KPMaker12]

They just fixed the camera as of Day 3 of the Beta with a small patch; you can now zoom in like DoW & CoH.

Thankfully..

[HouseontheBorderland]

Nice commentary, thanks

[popnir]

Eldar starting strat is always the same. Though I've noticed tyrands/marines have at least 2, and orks have many, since they can afford many squads so quickly. Tier 2 eldar though, you can either go banshees/wraithlords, but ive also gone rangers/spiders with a fire prism. 1v1 also doesn't as much variety, 3v3 is much better for differing strategies... Still though, not nearly as good as limitless possibilities of DoW soulstorm. Maybe when more races are added there will be more depth.

[nathones]

the thing i dont' like about this game is that your eldar strat seems like it doesn't change no matter who you play. Platforms -> Wraithlords

you're totally right about the strategic depth

[KaMiK2205]

is this a demo for DOW2?

[PodMan26]

It's the Multiplayer beta for DoW2. If you bought Soulstorm then you could get it as of the 21st. It opens publicly on the 28th. You get it off of Steam btw.

[KaMiK2205]

yea I found the DOW2 beta on Steam after I last posted here. Its taking bloody ages to download though :(

[PodMan26]

Yea it took me about 2 hours

[KaMiK2205]

I've been trying to download it since yesterday cos my wireless modem decided it wanted a vacation and wouldn't work for me....

[PodMan26]

sucks. I hope you enjoy the beta though. It gets better the more I play it. idk why.

[KaMiK2205]

lol. I have two exams next week, so its either getting the grades for University or playing DOW2...Hmmm tough choice :(

[qwertyman233]

very tough choice!

[zipper2k8]

Both, read and study while u wait on games to load :D

[zipper2k8]

Cancel it's flight

[TheMormoran]

Deffinitely good comments there Vaul. Looking forward to more videos from you, as it seems to be pretty much the only thing I do at work lately :p

[ZeroReaper99]

i hate how imba the melee is in this game

[sWeOzzE]

why don't you have meele combat on ´the wraith lord

[chef704]

..And here come the assault marines, ohshit..

lol great job as always Vaul I was hopeing you'd do some DOW2

[FierceBirdOfFlame]

Damn, when I saw the title I just KNEW this was gonna be special :D Love to see more of these matches!

[hhhhhhyy]

nice commanterie enjoyed it

[vegechan]

Ugh. You know, I just have to say, just because you can play the game with one hand doesn't mean its toned down. There's much more to strategy games than micro.

After seeing this game, and seeing how well the cover system is, I can't wait for the game. Seeing one squad of Marines almost take down his Warlock because of good positioning, really shows what DoW II is about.

[ahumpedgoblin]

i agree

[jordsss]

I noticed that in all your Eldar games you never use the Rangers or Banshees. I'd like to know how good they are.

You bait the Assault Marines with your Shiriken Platform. When the AMs jump in you use your Banshees to engage. (again, I have no idea how good Banshees are in this game)

[TheTerminator97]

You don't really have enough money to do a lot of different things, or switch up. You gotta build units and then keep them alive or you will lose.

[ChillaUk]

dow2 makes amazing cini replays. good to watch.

[dawnofdarken]

Thanks Vaul

The replay actually makes me want to play more of the beta, but like you said the games does feel very simplified.

[RazloTPD]

After watching your SS and SC videos i can see why you don't feel this matches up but i think it'd be cool if you did buy it.

You do great commentary, combined with this 'Cinematic' style of control i think you'd be able to pull off some great matches in DoW2

[diehardff]

You should buy the game. Though I doubt money's an issue, it wouldn't be out of order to set up a paypal for donations that could be used to subsidize the cost of any games you buy or even just the time you spend making the commentaries.

[demo55]

plz buy this game
