Freaking awesome. Bought Chaos Rising too.

Is this like WoW? It looks like Diablo.
It's an RTS with less base building.Quote:

So it's more like Age of Empires?Quote:

You're training units and teching up from your settlement and instead of training peasants to go and gather various resources you need to capture points around the map and hold them to maintain your economy. Your units come in squads rather than individually, these squads can be upgraded from the unit itself, your units can level up and you have a hero unit that has its own level track and a selection of different wargear he can equip. The different heroes represent different roles and each one can be adapted to work differently depending on the build you decide to use.Quote:

Nicely done describing it, I am working trough the campaign. It is different from any other RTS I ever played.
I enjoy the game very much!
Thank you. :)Quote:

I shall buy this after work today. I need something for when the SC2 beta is down.
Gah...I want chaos Rising but it seems silly if I haven't even beaten the first game and I'm busy with so many games as well. If only Chaos rising with 10.
Buy it. The story is lame, there is no need to know the story. Chaos Rising is all about the extra features.Quote:

Does DoW2 have a steep learning curve for online games? Seems to just reading some comments on forums.
Gonna derail this a bit. DoW2 doesn't have any base building. Doesn't that go against the COBRA mantra? I think Destro would be a Starcraft 2 man, myself.Quote:
