Dawn of War 2 Community Update #1

By L.A.G - 30th May 2009 - 00:38 AM

Welcome, everyone, to this brand new round-up of the best that we have to offer right here in the GameReplays.org Dawn of War 2 portal's very own forums! This Community Update is designed to give you an idea of the threads to keep an eye on, the very best ideas that GameReplays.org members have come up with and to just leave you with a general sense that they're still life in these ol' forums yet!

Bogger's Serious Interview
First up is perhaps the most interesting item this week. Our resident Electronics Sports League admin bogger has secured a second interview with Relic Entertainment's Community Manager - Thunder. Unlike our regular Relic Q&A segment, this will be a live chat over MSN and will feature all of your questions that never made it to the Q&A. In particular, Bogger will refuse to ask any question that we already know the answer to. This interview will take place on Tuesday the 2nd of June and Bogger is currently taking feedback and questions to put to Thunder. This is a perfect opportunity to have your say and let the developers answer any questions you may have.

Read Bogger's thread and put your own questions to the developers!


Dawn of War 2 Replay Parser
Our second discussion point in this update is more of a "one-to-watch". First revealed several month's ago, GameReplays.org member Freeply has created a fantastic tool to aid those of you who enjoy watching the replays provided on this site - The Dawn of War 2 Replay Parser. This fantastic tool enables you to not only see the name of the replay, as per the game itself, but also to see the players, races, heroes, build order, chat logs and unit upgrades - All without even opening the game! This makes browsing replays incredibly simple. Don't want another 'Nid Warrior spam replay? Check the build order first. Want to see a replay where the Force Commander uses something other than his trademark hammer. Check the upgrade list!

Unfortunately, this tool hasn't yet been updated for the new patch but be sure to keep an eye on it - once you've got it, you'll wonder how you ever did without.

Explore the updates and see the main page for the Parser!


Dawn of War 2's Signature of the Month Competition - Voting now open!
The latest Dawn of War 2 Signature competition has closed it's doors to all entries and is now open for your voting! Featuring the theme of Eldar this week, the contest showcases some outstanding graphics work by our regular members for you to weigh and contrast. So please, head over to the May Signature Contest Poll and let all our artists know how much their work is appreciated!

For any budding artists or members who just know they could do it better, keep your eyes peeled for the next Signature competition here on the DoW2 portal! This will be coming very soon...


Statistical Representation of Map Balance
We've all been there. Lost a game against Zoanthrope-spamming Tyranid players and decided to mix it up a little - we'll blame it on the map's imbalance rather than the racial one! Well, one of our members - KingNimba - took it one step furthur than that and subjected his prejudice to all kinds of statistical analysis. Full credit should be given to him for all his hard work and the results make for a very interesting read.

Check out KingNimba's analysis and join in the discussion!


That should be enough to amuse you all for now! Enjoy this, i hope it helped you sift through some of the nonsense we get in that forum. Keep your eyes peeled on the DoW2 Main Page as well as several more updates will be coming out soon!
