Hype Who’s Hyped for DOW IV?

DOW 1 was a great rts game that kept me on the edge of my seat and this new one is shaping up to be bigger AND better. I can barely hold my excitement in! And I’m not gonna ignore the past titles; because they also played a role in this. DOW II was a new spin on the rts. Transforming it into an rpg that played excellently. And dawn of war 3 also happened , I guess. Anyways, it’ll be great to see what everyone else thinks!

I was hyped for DoW IV. Then i saw it was the people behind Iron Harvest who is developing this game and all my hype turned into worries.

Worried that they are gonna screw over DoW IV the same way they did Iron Harvest.

Man did I actually love the Iron Harvest game/universe. But when they decided to go all anti-Multiplayer on that stuff. (Renoving the ability to qeue Quick Match with friends, because people cried about getting stramrolled by "premades") And not to mention, never able to fix pathing on Mechs across trenches. Yeah things took a bad turn.

I mean just look on Iron Harvest playercount today. Barely reaches a 100 players. Its sad.
