Tenebris Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 As the topic says DOW II has a new site: DoW II I have yet to test the new game but it seems that they no longer support Games for Windows Live and the achievements can be unlocked in Steam. They also claim a better multiplayer support. What do you say?

Emperors Immortals Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Cheers Tenebris, I still play that at home sometimes. W4gL was problematic on my rig, so I'm pleased to hear about steam, also GameSpy looks like its not involved anymore which is good too.

appiah4 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 GameSpy actually completely shutdown recently so they moved everything over to Steamworks + dedicated servers. It works, and my experience is that retail matchmaking is better; More games, less lag for me. Unfortunately, they reset the ladder but somehow not completely: some of my statistics reset, some did not (I have statistics for things I killed despite 0 games under my belt in some game modes). There were no balance changes, and this game badly needs balance changes.. I would recommend the Elite Mod to everyone who liked the original game. It adds Grey Knights as a new faction, many new units, and greatly enhances balance.
